Abstract

Poverty reduction in Indonesia has increasingly moved beyond short-term welfare assistance toward a broader agenda of strengthening local economic resilience. This article examines how Koperasi Merah Putih can be positioned as a strategic local economic institution for supporting poverty resilience in Indonesia. Using a secondary data-based policy analysis, the study explores the relationship between poverty reduction, structural vulnerability, and the role of village-level cooperative institutions in strengthening community economic capacity. The article argues that poverty resilience requires more than declining poverty rates; it depends on the ability of local communities to access productive resources, stabilize household livelihoods, improve market participation, and build collective economic mechanisms that can protect vulnerable groups from future shocks. Koperasi Merah Putih is viewed in this study as a positive institutional innovation that reflects the government’s commitment to strengthening grassroots economic development. Through its potential roles in facilitating access to basic goods, local distribution networks, productive financing, food supply chains, and community-based enterprise development, the cooperative can support a more inclusive and adaptive model of poverty alleviation. The article highlights that the effectiveness of poverty resilience depends on the interaction between local institutional capacity, human development, employment opportunities, digital connectivity, and regional economic structures. By shifting the analytical focus from poverty reduction to poverty resilience, this study contributes to poverty governance literature and offers a policy-relevant framework for understanding how cooperative-based local institutions can strengthen Indonesia’s long-term poverty alleviation agenda.

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of fishermen’s competence and catch management capability on income improvement among coastal fishing communities in East and West Manokwari, Indonesia. A quantitative survey was conducted with 100 active fishermen selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficient of determination analysis. The results reveal that both fishermen’s competence and catch management capability have positive and significant effects on income improvement. Catch management capability is the more dominant predictor, highlighting the importance of post-harvest handling, storage, distribution, and marketing in generating higher economic value from fishery products. The model explains 74.1% of the variation in fishermen’s income improvement, indicating strong explanatory power. These findings suggest that improving coastal livelihoods requires an integrated strategy that combines human capital development with operational capability strengthening across the fisheries value chain. The study contributes to small-scale fisheries and coastal development literature by showing that fishermen’s welfare depends not only on catching capacity, but also on the ability to manage, process, and market catches more effectively.

Abstract

Clean living behavior is often understood as an outcome of individual awareness or public health intervention. However, in culturally rooted communities, such behavior may also be shaped by collective values, customary rules, and everyday social practices. This study examines how local culture constructs and sustains clean living behavior in Penglipuran Traditional Village, Bali, a village widely recognized for its clean and orderly environment. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving traditional leaders, village stakeholders, and community members. The data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with source and method triangulation used to strengthen validity. The findings show that clean living behavior in Penglipuran is constructed through the internalization of cultural values, the enforcement of customary rules known as awig-awig, collective participation through gotong royong, and informal social control. Cleanliness is not merely practiced as an individual habit, but is understood as a form of social responsibility, cultural identity, and harmony between humans and their environment. This study highlights the importance of local wisdom as a socio-cultural foundation for sustainable environmental behavior and community-based cleanliness governance.

Abstract

This study examines how health education influences dental care behavior and contributes to shifting health values among urban communities in Makassar, Indonesia. Although dental and oral health is an essential component of overall well-being, preventive dental care is often treated as secondary to curative treatment, especially when individuals seek dental services only after experiencing pain or oral health problems. Using a sociological health perspective, this article explores how health education programs shape knowledge, attitudes, and everyday practices related to dental maintenance. The study highlights that health education delivered through campaigns, seminars, counseling, and educational materials can improve public awareness of oral hygiene, encourage regular tooth brushing, reduce harmful dietary habits, and promote routine dental check-ups. More importantly, the findings indicate a gradual shift in health values: dental care is increasingly understood not merely as a medical response to illness but as part of a preventive and healthy lifestyle. However, this behavioral transformation remains uneven. Socioeconomic barriers, particularly the cost of dental services and unequal access to adequate care, continue to limit the ability of low-income groups to translate knowledge into consistent practice. The study argues that effective dental health education must be integrated with broader efforts to reduce access inequalities. By linking behavioral change with social and economic contexts, this article contributes to sociological discussions on preventive health behavior, public health education, and value transformation in urban Indonesia.

Abstract

This article examines the institutionalization of justice in Ancient Babylon through the legal institutions and forms of authority reflected in the Code of Hammurabi. As one of the earliest written legal collections in human history, the Code provides important evidence of how law was used to organize social relations, regulate economic activity, and legitimize political power. Using normative legal research with historical and conceptual approaches, this study analyzes the legal norms contained in the Code and situates them within the broader social and political structure of Babylonian society. The findings show that Babylonian law was supported by a relatively complex institutional order involving the king, judges, administrative officials, local assemblies, written records, and procedures of proof. Royal authority occupied a central position in this system, deriving legitimacy from divine mandate, especially through the association between Hammurabi and the god Shamash. The institutionalization of justice was reflected in the codification of rules on bodily injury, professional responsibility, economic transactions, family relations, and social hierarchy. Although the legal system was not egalitarian, it provided a formal framework for dispute resolution, social control, and the protection of vulnerable groups. The article argues that the Code of Hammurabi should be understood not merely as a legal text, but as an institutional instrument for consolidating justice, order, and royal legitimacy in Ancient Babylon.

Abstract

Ancient Mesopotamia occupies a central position in the history of written law, particularly through the Code of Hammurabi, one of the earliest and most systematic legal collections of the ancient world. This article examines the concept of retributive justice in Babylonian legal thought and analyzes the institutional foundations of punishment reflected in the Code of Hammurabi. Using normative legal research with historical and conceptual approaches, the study explores how punishment was constructed, legitimized, and applied within the social and political order of ancient Babylon. The findings show that the Code of Hammurabi embodied the principle of lex talionis, emphasizing proportionality between offense and punishment as a core expression of retributive justice. However, punishment was not merely a moral response to wrongdoing; it was also embedded in institutional mechanisms involving courts, royal administration, and the king’s authority as the ultimate source of legal legitimacy. The study further reveals that the application of punishment was shaped by Babylonian social hierarchy, where legal consequences varied according to the status of offenders and victims. Historically, the Code of Hammurabi contributed to the development of criminal law thought by providing an early foundation for proportional punishment, legal codification, and the relationship between law, authority, and social order.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and formulate a Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes) Digital Transformation model for Sustainable Village Financial Strengthening, against the backdrop of still weak financial governance, transparency, and managerial capacity of BUMDes in many villages. The research method used was a qualitative approach with the research location in Pulau Banda Neira District, Central Maluku Regency. Data collection techniques included interviews, observation, and documentation, with data analysis using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results of this study indicate that the digital transformation of BUMDes in Merdeka Village shows potential for sustainable village financial strengthening through improved financial governance, institutional strengthening, the formation of a digital organizational culture, and the development of technology-based socio-economic relations. The use of digital technology has the potential to improve operational efficiency, transparency and accountability in management, expand business marketing, increase community participation, and strengthen the contribution of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) to Village Original Income (PADes). However, the implementation of digital transformation still faces various obstacles, such as limited internet infrastructure, uneven digital competency among managers, and suboptimal utilization of integrated digital systems. Therefore, strengthening human resource capacity, developing digital infrastructure, improving governance, and expanding strategic partnerships are necessary to ensure that BUMDes digital transformation can support village economic independence and achieve sustainable village financial empowerment.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of employee performance at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Bulukumba Regency and to identify the factors that support and hinder performance effectiveness in the delivery of population administration services. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings indicate that employees are generally able to handle a high volume of services each day, even when the number of service users exceeds the available staffing capacity. Service quality is considered relatively good and generally conforms to standard operating procedures, as reflected in employees' friendly, professional, and careful conduct. Performance effectiveness is supported by adequate facilities and infrastructure, including computers, an electronic queuing system, a comfortable waiting area, and online service applications, as well as by employee competence and work discipline. The main inhibiting factors are limited human resources, technical problems involving networks and equipment, and the limited readiness of some service users in preparing the required documents. Overall, employee performance at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Bulukumba Regency can be considered fairly effective, although several constraints still need to be addressed to optimize population administration services.

Abstract

Effective records management is a core administrative capability because public services depend on the timely availability, authenticity, traceability, and security of information generated through government transactions. This study examines how records management contributes to public service effectiveness using secondary data only. An integrative document review was conducted using peer-reviewed studies, international standards, Indonesian legislation, and official archival policy documents. Sixteen substantive sources were purposively retained because they directly addressed records management, public-sector service delivery, accountability, transparency, or electronic records management. The material was coded thematically around service timeliness and retrieval, accuracy and evidentiary reliability, accountability and transparency, digital integration, and organizational capacity. The review shows that records management improves public service delivery primarily by reducing information-search delays, supporting consistent decisions, preserving evidence of administrative actions, strengthening access to information, and enabling continuity across organizational units. However, digitization alone does not guarantee effectiveness. Recurrent constraints include weak classification and retention controls, fragmented paper-digital workflows, limited professional capacity, inadequate infrastructure, weak management support, and incomplete compliance with archival rules. The Indonesian policy context provides a strong formal basis through Law No. 43 of 2009 on Archives, Law No. 25 of 2009 on Public Services, and the SRIKANDI integrated electronic records system, but implementation effectiveness depends on embedding records controls into day-to-day service processes. The study concludes that records management should be treated as service infrastructure rather than a back-office administrative function.

Abstract

Good governance is widely presented as a normative foundation for improving public-sector performance, yet its practical relationship with public service quality is not always straightforward. This study examines the implementation of good governance in Indonesian public service delivery using secondary data only. A descriptive-integrative secondary data design was employed by synthesizing official government statistics, regulatory documents, Ombudsman reports, international governance frameworks, and peer-reviewed literature. The principal empirical sources include the national Public Service Index (Indeks Pelayanan Publik/IPP), the Electronic-Based Government System Index (Sistem Pemerintahan Berbasis Elektronik/SPBE), the 2024 public service compliance assessment of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia, and national regulations governing public services and digital government. The results show measurable progress in several governance-related indicators. The national IPP increased from 3.93 in 2023 to 4.02 in 2024, while the national SPBE Index rose from 2.26 in 2020 to 3.12 in 2024. Ombudsman data also indicate that the number of assessed entities classified in the green zone increased from 179 in 2021 to 494 in 2024, representing approximately 84.16% of the 587 entities assessed in 2024. Nevertheless, more than 10,000 public reports were resolved and approximately 112,000 consultations were received by the Ombudsman during 2024, with local governments remaining the most frequently reported institutions. These findings suggest that Indonesia has strengthened formal compliance, service standards, and digital administrative capacity, but persistent complaints and maladministration risks reveal an implementation gap between institutional reform and citizens’ service experiences.
