Abstract

This study aims to analyze the representation of bullying in the film Imperfect: Karier, Cinta, dan Timbangan directed by Ernest Prakasa through Roland Barthes’ semiotic approach. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with data collected through observation and documentation of selected film scenes. The analysis is based on Barthes’ three layers of meaning: denotation, connotation, and myth. The findings reveal that the forms of bullying depicted in the film include verbal, emotional, and symbolic bullying, primarily occurring within family and workplace contexts. The film highlights how beauty standards shaped by popular culture lead to discrimination against women who do not conform to idealized criteria. The myth reflected in the film is the belief that beauty determines one’s value and social acceptance. Through its narrative and visual symbols, the film serves as a social critique of unrealistic beauty constructs and emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance.

Abstract

Kampung Melayu Semarang is a historic area that reflects the ethnic and cultural diversity of the community in Semarang's Old Town. However, amid the city's modernization and tourism growth, there has been a decline in youth participation and a weakening of the community's understanding of the meaning of local traditions. This study aims to analyze how cultural identity and efforts to preserve the traditional values of a multi-ethnic community are manifested through the Kirab Budaya (Cultural Parade) activity. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with an interpretive paradigm, using cultural identity theory to understand the social construction of identity and the concept of cultural preservation to examine the sustainability of local values. Data collection techniques were carried out through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, which were then analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study show that cultural parades not only serve as a form of cultural expression, but also as a mechanism to strengthen shared identity among multi-ethnic communities. This identity is clearly seen through various traditional symbols in cultural parades, such as traditional clothing, Zapin dance, and rebana music, as well as the involvement of various ethnic groups. This cultural parade also serves as a means of preserving intangible cultural heritage, involving the active participation of local residents and the younger generation, while strengthening social solidarity and reviving the Malay-Islamic values that form the basis of community identity in Semarang. The Kampung Melayu Cultural Parade plays an important role in maintaining the continuity of multi-ethnic identity and preserving local cultural values amid massive social changes in urban communities.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis representasi feminisme digital dan nilainilai feminisme dalam konten edukasi gender di akun Instagram @kawanpuan.id. Akun ini berfungsi sebagai media advokasi dengan bahasa empatik dan visual komunikatif, berfokus pada isu kesetaraan gender. Menggunakan pendekatan Analisis Wacana Kritis dari Norman Fairclough, penelitian ini mengkaji tiga dimensi: teks, praktik wacana, dan praktik sosial, dengan sampel tujuh unggahan antara Juni hingga Agustus 2025. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa feminisme digital di @kawanpuan.id mencakup tiga nilai utama: kesetaraan gender, pemberdayaan perempuan, dan solidaritas digital berbasis empati. Konten tentang ruang aman perempuan menekankan hak atas tubuh dan privasi, sementara isu perlindungan anak dan femisida mengedepankan tanggung jawab sosial dalam menciptakan lingkungan bebas kekerasan. Narasi pemberdayaan perempuan mengajak untuk menolak victim blaming, berani bersuara, dan membangun solidaritas lintas gender. Penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa feminisme digital di @kawanpuan.id berkontribusi pada pencapaian SDGs ke-5 tentang kesetaraan gender dan pemberdayaan perempuan, serta mendukung kebijakan nasional dalam Program Asta Cita Prabowo Gibran, khususnya dalam pilar Pembangunan Manusia Unggul dan Berkeadilan Sosial.

Abstract

Efforts to promote green technology adoption at the community level often encounter obstacles due to gaps between organizational communication and local socio-cultural contexts, especially when CSR programs are implemented through top-down approaches. This study analyzes environmental communication strategies within the CSR program of PT Pertamina Patra Niaga AFT Adisutjipto in the Sambilegi Kidul Tourism and Education Village, focusing on the role of local heroes as catalysts for change. Guided by the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) model, the study examines the communication process through three stages: identification of target audiences, messages, and media; planning and development of communication media and message design; and strengthening community knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation involving the Community Development Officer (CDO), village leaders and program managers, and local heroes from assisted community groups. The object of this research is the environmental communication strategy implemented in the CSR program. The findings show that local heroes act not only as message conveyors but also as cultural mediators who adapt environmental messages and green technology practices to daily social life. Through a gradual social learning process starting at the individual level and expanding to families and the community, this strategy effectively enhances knowledge, fosters positive attitudes, and supports sustainable green technology adoption.

Abstract

This study examines the visual codes in the film Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) through John Fiske’s semiotic approach. As a spy-action film filled with high-intensity sequences, the movie presents a variety of visual signs that construct the audience’s cinematic experience. The analysis focuses on Fiske’s three levels of codes: reality, representation, and ideology complemented by verbal codes as supporting elements. Using a qualitative method with descriptive semiotic analysis, this research investigates film texts, including action scenes, dialogues, cinematography, lighting, and visual symbolism. The findings are expected to reveal how visual elements function not merely as aesthetic entertainment but also as tools for constructing ideological meanings related to heroism, technological domination, and global surveillance. The novelty of this research lies in its emphasis on visual codes within action films, an area often overlooked, thereby contributing to film and visual communication studies and providing valuable insights for filmmakers in designing meaningful action sequences.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the representation of the political identity of the Republic of South Maluku (RMS) on Instagram. The study is motivated by the growing role of social media as a digital communication space that enables the construction and reproduction of political identities through symbols, narratives, and communication messages. This research employed a qualitative approach using Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis. Data were collected from Instagram posts containing historical narratives, symbols of struggle, and calls for collective action. The analysis was conducted through the levels of denotation, connotation, and myth to reveal the meanings embedded in the posts. The findings indicate that RMS political identity is represented through the reproduction of historical narratives, the commemoration of political figures, collective mobilization, and the use of symbols reflecting the group's struggle and identity. At the mythological level, Instagram posts construct a belief in the continuity of RMS political identity and struggle within digital spaces. The study concludes that Instagram functions not only as a medium for information dissemination but also as a platform for constructing and reinforcing political identity in digital communication.
