Abstract

Hikikomori, a term used to describe individuals who experience severe social withdrawal, has become an increasingly prominent social issue in Japan. This phenomenon, once considered an isolated occurrence, now affects a growing number of individuals, particularly among young people, with profound social, psychological, and economic consequences. The aim of this study is to investigate the underlying causes of hikikomori, its psychological and societal impacts, and the effectiveness of current interventions. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining qualitative case studies and quantitative surveys to examine the factors contributing to social isolation, including societal pressures, family dynamics, and the role of technology. The findings reveal that academic stress, unemployment, and changing family structures are significant contributors to hikikomori. Furthermore, the study highlights the psychological toll on affected individuals, including depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem, as well as the strain on family members and social systems. While current interventions, such as counseling services and government programs, show some promise, they are often insufficient in addressing the root causes of the issue. This study concludes that hikikomori is not only a personal issue but a societal challenge that requires comprehensive, multi-faceted interventions. Future research should focus on exploring more effective support systems, the role of technology in exacerbating isolation, and the long-term impact of hikikomori on Japan's workforce and economy.

Abstract

Paradiplomacy has become an important phenomenon in international relations, especially for local governments. This study discusses the cooperation between the Yogyakarta Special Region Government and the Gangwon-do Government, South Korea, as an example of paradiplomacy in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method, with data collection through interviews, archival documents, and secondary sources. The results of the study show that cooperation between the Yogyakarta Special Region Government and the Gangwon-do Government has begun since 2008, with the signing of a LoI and followed by the signing of a MoU in 2009. This cooperation covers tourism, science and technology, education, agriculture, culture, and sports. However, the results of the study also show that the effectiveness of this cooperation still needs to be improved, especially in terms of coordination, strategy, and reporting systems. Therefore, this study recommends that local governments need to enhance their capabilities and capacities in managing international cooperation, as well as strengthen coordination and communication with the central government and international partners. This study also identified several gaps that need to be addressed, such as the lack of data and information on the implementation of cooperation, the lack of analysis on the impact of cooperation on local communities and economies, and the lack of evaluation of the effectiveness of cooperation. Therefore, this study recommends several future studies, such as analyzing the impact of cooperation on local communities and economies, proving cooperation's effectiveness, and analyzing cooperation's role and contribution in improving local governments' ability and capacity.

Abstract

India is experiencing significant demographic shifts, including a growing elderly population and a decline in the traditional extended family structure. By 2050, individuals aged 60 and above are projected to comprise 19% of India's total population, presenting challenges to social cohesion and healthcare systems. This study analyzes these shifts, focusing on aging trends, family structure transformations, and their social implications. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research combines demographic data analysis and in-depth interviews with 40 participants, including policymakers, sociologists, urban planners, and older adults from both urban and rural areas. Findings reveal a transition from extended to nuclear families, particularly in urban regions, resulting in greater vulnerability for older adults due to social isolation and caregiving gaps. The study calls for policies targeting elderly healthcare, and intergenerational support. Recommendations include enhancing healthcare services for older adults, improving pension schemes, and prioritizing age-friendly urban planning. Despite limitations such as small sample size and geographical focus, this research provides valuable insights for policymakers. Future studies should investigate the broader societal impacts of aging, particularly in healthcare, education, and economic productivity, and explore the role of technology in elder care, especially in rural areas.

Abstract

The impact of common law system on The Gambia is manifest in the type of legal system the country embraces. Prior to colonialism, The Gambia embraced customary practices of the indigenous people of the country which is mainly influenced by their belief systems in cultural practices. So, customary practices were dominant in the country and they reflected the beliefs of different regions in the country. They also differed from one region to another and from one ethnicity to another. The present existence of the Law of England (Application) Act that allows all the laws operating in Britain as of 1888 to be used in The Gambia is an indication of how common law system gains traction in the country’s legal framework. It is obvious that common law is still alien to the practices in certain regions in The Gambia – especially the provincial part of the country but it is also clear that it contributes to maintenance of peace and justice. On the other hand, it causes social disorder as some societies fiind it inimical to their traditional practices. For example, the criminalization of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) in 2015 and the current attempt to abrogate this law questions the compatibility of this criminalization with the cultural values of certain indigenous people. Therefore, for the country to strengthen its legal framework, the common law needs to be strengthened by moral values of Gambian society to address its problem of governance.

Abstract

Education plays a crucial role in shaping societal values and challenging structural inequalities. This paper explores how literature, particularly Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery,” can be used as a tool to critically examine oppressive social norms within educational contexts. By applying Marxist and hyperrealist theories, the study analyzes how ritualistic violence in “The Lottery” mirrors real-world mechanisms of social control that sustain inequality. The paper argues that integrating literature into social sciences education can transform traditional learning approaches by encouraging students to question inherited norms and develop critical consciousness. This interdisciplinary approach aligns with SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), advocating for education that empowers learners to actively engage in social transformation. The findings suggest that a literature-based pedagogy in social sciences can drive a deeper understanding of systemic issues and contribute to a more just and sustainable society. The study further emphasizes the need for an interdisciplinary teaching approach where literature is used to foster critical thinking and inspire active participation in social change, supporting the realization of sustainable development goals.
