Abstract

Given the current crime situation in South Africa, this present study investigates the nature of residents' neighborhood safety concerns, the social and demographic determinants, and how to ameliorate the situation in peripheral urban communities. The study used a sample of 110 participants drawn through a stratified random sampling technique from the adult population of peripheral urban communities of Libode and Ngqeleni in South Africa. The study adopted a mixed method approach, dominated by a quantitative approach, where a survey instrument (Questionnaire) was mainly used to collect data. The study found youth unemployment in the area, night walks, absence of organized neighborhood watch, lack of police visibility, and abandoned houses as major critical safety concerns in the communities' neighborhoods. Notably, most residents expressed safety concerns, but higher neighborhood safety concerns were significantly associated with marriage, lower number of years living in the neighborhood, and femaleness. On the other hand, even though more urbanized locations, being old (over 60 years), being employed, salaried, and of high school level are associated with higher safety concerns in the neighborhood, but not at a statistically significant level. While residents believe that more job creation and community participation in organized neighborhood watch could be a source of solution, this study's major implication lies in the importance of addressing these critical factors in the relevant policies and practices in the country.

Abstract

Abstract: Social media has become essential for tourism promotion in this digital era. This research analyses the influence of social media platforms on tourism promotion in Bengkulu, using James S. Coleman's rational choice theory. This research uses a closed questionnaire given to 90 students who use social media to find a tourism destination. The analysis technique used is multiple linear regression analysis and percentage descriptive statistics. The results showed that the review of social media posts significantly influenced teenagers' interest in visiting a destination. 52.22% of respondents prefer Instagram as their travel reference, supported by reviews of tourist destinations in promotional posts. Tourism destinations that are active and creative in utilizing social media and have good reviews tend to have a higher level of interaction with potential tourists. The results of this study guide tourist destinations and tourism marketers to maximize the potential of social media in their promotion.

Abstract

The Minangkabau Traditional Leadership, which consists of traditional leaders, religious leaders and intellectual leaders, has an important role in maintaining social balance and resolving various problems in the community. In the midst of rampant illegal gold mining in the Batahan Region which has triggered various social impacts, these traditional leaders face big challenges in maintaining community stability and prosperity. The aim of this research is to describe social relations between traditional Minangkabau leaders and identify the obstacles faced in overcoming the social impacts of illegal gold mining. Using the theoretical framework of Robert K. Merton's Structural Functional Theory, a qualitative approach was applied through observation, in-depth interviews and documentation with ten informants. Data was analyzed through a process of data reduction, data display, and conclusion verification. The research results show that traditional leaders build relationships with Dalihan Na Tolu, KAN (Kerapatan Adat Nagari), Wali Nagari, and Jorong Chiefs; religious leaders liaise with Ulil Amri (umaro), the Indonesian Ulama Council (MUI), and the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA); as well as intellectual leaders interacting with social religious organizations and non-governmental organizations. This relationship strengthens synergy in overcoming the social impacts of illegal gold mining. Obstacles faced include a lack of government support, community non-compliance, and economic challenges that encourage illegal mining. Apart from that, differences in views and lack of coordination between stakeholders also hamper the effectiveness of response efforts. The synergy of traditional Minangkabau leadership has proven effective in mitigating negative impacts, but requires further support. Recommendations include increasing the capacity of traditional leaders, closer collaboration with the government for better law enforcement, and community education to achieve sustainable solutions.

Abstract

Abstract: Market and terminal are two places that can both be described as something crowded, noisy, complicated, and prone to crime. However, behind this general condition, it turns out that markets and terminals are inseparable symbiosis in the economy of cities and regions. If this symbiosis is separated, inevitably, the terminal will not develop. This is the case with several inter-provincial (AKDP) and inter-provincial (AKAP) public transportation terminals. This paper explains the relationship between the two as a socio-economic symbiosis, a Minangkabau local wisdom, and the following phenomena. It can be concluded that (a). reflecting on the planning and development of traditional markets in West Sumatra, especially the nagari market; the nagari market is crowded because one is always next to the terminal (b). local wisdom between the market and the terminal is like water and fish. Fish cannot live without water. But a terminal without a market around it is like a fish without water. This is the case in nine of the ten AKDP and AKAP terminals in West Sumatra (c). terminal construction is always located in the district's capital city, except for the Kiliran Jao terminal (Sijunjung Regency), which does not consider the location's economic, pathological, and sociological aspects. However, each development is always accompanied by a feasibility study per the Ministry of Transportation requirements.

Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to describe the stages of women's empowerment in waste management through waste banks analyzed from the concept of empowerment stages. The research uses a qualitative method. The results show that the stages of women's empowerment consisted of: (1) raising awareness about waste problems; (2) providing training and skills on waste processing and the formation and development of Bank Sampah Unit (BSU); and (3) increasing women's participation in running the Bank Sampah Unit (BSU) independently. However, the field findings show that in the capacity stage, women already can develop the organization (BSU). It is concluded that the stages of women's empowerment in waste management through waste banks have made women empowered in managing waste in their households.

Abstract

Abstract: This research analyses the views of the Suku Laut on development policies that have resettled them from a nomadic life at sea to a sedentary life on land. The top-down development approach often does not actively involve the Suku Laut, leading to various responses. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with in-depth interviews and observations of 10 informants of the Sea Tribe in the Riau Islands. Peter L. Berger's social construction theory analyzed how social change occurs through externalization, objectivation, and internalization. Based on the research results, two main views of the Suku Laut towards development policies resulted from social construction. Both views reflect the complex dynamics of identity, access, and interaction with the new social environment. Firstly, some felt that development was not inclusive because it threatened their cultural identity, access to resources, and lack of involvement in decision-making. Secondly, some Suku Laut consider the policy sufficient to fulfill their basic needs, such as education, health, and protection from extreme weather. These different views are influenced by their living patterns, whether they are still nomadic, settled on the coast, or land. This article shows that the change from nomadic to settled life results from social construction created through the interaction of the Suku Laut with external society

Abstract

This research focuses on the quarter-life crisis problem caused by having finished studying at university but being confused about choices for the future, also due to demands from the surrounding environment regarding the economic sector and also due to academic stress. The more often you experience pressure, the more likely an individual will start to develop negative emotions and views of themselves. Final-year students often experience negative feelings such as confusion, insecurity about their own abilities, and feelings of depression and loss of hope for the future. The aim of this research is to analyze the reflexivity of final-year students in facing the quarter-life crisis. This research uses descriptive research methods with a purposive selection of informants analyzed using Ulrich Beck's Risk Society theory. The quarter-life crisis that final-year students are at risk of experiencing is influenced by awareness of the future, which causes feelings of anxiety, overload, feeling burdened, and feeling left behind by others. Then, the research results also show that to face risks in the future, final-year students carry out reflexivity by improving their skills and also participating in organizations, training, or internships. Social class is also a supporting factor for student reflexivity, but not the main one. Because they have unlimited access, the upper and upper middle classes have better opportunities for reflexivity than the lower and lower middle classes. And social support is also very necessary when final-year students practice reflexivity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis) in empowering the community through the development of ecotourism at Curup Kereta Waterfall. A qualitative approach was used, employing data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. Pokdarwis plays a vital role in enhancing community capacity through tourism management, environmental conservation, and visitor services. The findings reveal that community involvement in Pokdarwis contributes to local economic growth by providing tourism services and local products. However, this empowerment faces challenges such as suboptimal coordination with the Tourism Office and limited infrastructure to support accessibility and visitor comfort. Furthermore, community participation in decision-making remains confined to implementation aspects. To ensure the sustainability of ecotourism, greater equitable community involvement and improved coordination between Pokdarwis, the government, and other stakeholders are required. These findings highlight the critical role of Pokdarwis as an empowerment agent, bridging the community with sustainable ecotourism opportunities and fostering inclusive and continuous prosperity.

Abstract

This study aims to examine how the practice of DIY travel using the Do It Yourself (DIY) concept was popularized by Ulrich Beck in the late-modern era. This research uses a qualitative approach. The data collection technique was an in-depth interview with Spradley’s data analysis. The research informants were taken using purposive techniques. The study results show three practices of Gen Z carrying out DIY travel culture. First, the DIY travel culture is an act of resistance to consumerism and capitalism. Second, DIY travel culture creates a biographical trajectory. Third, to find value on the journey. This study has methodological limitations because it is researched using Ulrich Beck's theory of DIY and reflexive society, social class variables are ignored in this study and only categorize the group of young people who like to travel as the creation of their trips without being based on economic orientation
