Abstract

The Book of Candrarini is an ethic didactical book for women in polygamist system, for the eternity of her marriage. It was a disgrace that a woman divorced. This book was the masterpiece of it’s era, written in 1860 in the glory of feodalism in Surakarta, where the authority, high officials and the very peoples did polygamy. That is why His Majesty Paku Buwana IX had Ranggawarsita to write an ethic didactic for women, with the five wives of Arjuna as the model: three princesses and two daughters of priest with very nice performance and gentle behaviour. They lived in harmony, devoted to their husband. The ethic didactic was a catharsis for women in concubine. This research observes Candrarini from its own internal aspects as literary, religious, historical, political, sociological and psychological aspect. The result is : Beauty of a woman does not lie so much in her external appearance as in her internal virtues like modesty, chastity, compassion, service and refined manners. That is the way to save and preserve the eternity of marriage’s life. The ethic is always up to date, everlasting, eternal.

Abstract

The Meiji administration issued some new policies on education which were basically carried out socially by transforming the awareness of each citizen on the role of the state. The Japanese during the Tokugawa era were still bound by provincialism, whereas in the Meiji era they were obliged to have a national consciousness based on a nationalistic educational policy. The transformation of the provincial awareness to the nationalistic one is the most significant change carried out by the Meiji administration in the domain of education.

Abstract

Such dilemma between guilt and shameful has been an interesting topic in the field of social psychology since few times ago. That dilemma persists when discussing social control, self-control, individual moral values, moral standard, cross-cultural influence as well as education-related setting. It is predicted, the one which is more influential, whether guilt aspect or shameful aspect, will one way or another influence the way somebody’s behavior can be modified. This study investigates such tendency which prevails in public schools especially performed by pupils when treating their student’s misconduct. Research question forwarded is whether they exploit punishment or to create shaming feeling towards students who have made nuisances in school. The result shows method of punishment has been the only way of modifying behavior which is regarded deviant. Other finding, it is believed that, having given such punishment, shameful feeling will follow. This finding is in association with the character of Indonesian society toward the way guilt and shamefull operate.

Abstract

Actualization Of Chinese Women’s Social Role In Jabodetabek. This research is based on a primary question "Why the actualization of Chinese women's social role is not frequently seen in Indonesia?"; Does it happen because of their 'double minority' position? ; Do they have willingness to show their social role in society? ; And some other questions around the issue which are interesting to find the answer. The focus of this research relates to human behavior which is hard to measure, so this research uses qualitative research methodology which is based on symbolic interaction perspective. An analysis on 101 respondents' answers to the questionnaires, and the result of action research and deep interview with some people who have been chosen, give us some conclusions. One of them: as human beings, even though Chinese women in Jabodetabek are on double minority position, they still have the willingness to actualize their social role. The area that becomes their primary choice is in religion, but some of them choose other areas like arts, sports, even politics. Their primary obstacle for actualizing the role in social life is the process of exclusiveness that has happened and has been carried out in their daily lives whether they realize it or not. It happens on their four social living aspects: tradition, language, education, and social environment. The main factor that has motivated them is their self awareness as part of Indonesian society. However, the material interest also has a slight influence on them.

Abstract

Discussing about the local authonomy, certainly cannot be separated from the financial capacity issue from each local government. This is due to the fact that the authonomy and decentralization are always directly connected with the total of the budget obtained by the local government. Therefore, this matter certainly will be related to the total of the Pendapatan AsliDaerah (PAD) and the percentage towards the APBD. From the description above, the priority scale of the activity is necessary to be arranged. The purposes of the activity are: (1) providing a basic programme of development planning entirely in the local authonomy framework based on the regulation (Undang-Undang) No. 32 Tahun 2004 concerning The Local Gevernment. (2) optimizing the development planning in Bandung through selecting the society’s need. (3) arranging the priority scale of the development activity in Bandung in 2006. The research method used in this paper is explorative descriptive with the quantitative technique by the software usage as one of egovernment applications. The result of the data analysis shows rank of each development activity which will be performed based on the determined criteria as the development priority in Bandung.

Abstract

This research compared tertiary irrigation management in the Municipality and Regency of Tegal, the Regency of Jembrana, and the Regency of Hulu Langat Selangor Malaysia. Malaysia has been developing water board at National and State Level. Although the two countries differed in governmental arrangements, the locus used in this research experienced the same level of governments. Verstehen has been as a general framework of this research approach. Qualitative and descriptive were the method of this research. Data are gathered using eclectic-triangulation methods and analyzed with multilevel tools. This research concluded that the tertiary irrigation in those three locus in Indonesia were not established based on functional decentralization, eventhough it has potential to do so. It is different from Malaysia which is fully centralized through deconcentration. Only the teritorial decentralization is the basic of tertiary irrigation management in Indonesia. Functional decentralization is not being practiced in tertiary irrigation management both in Indonesia and Malaysia. Empirically, Government should improve the performance of irrigation organization at the grassroot level in order to increase the whole agricultural performance which creating special local regime in the irrigation management. Furthermore, amandment to the constitution of 18th article should induce the concept of functional decentralization that was practiced in Indonesian local government system in 1920.

Abstract

A number of the mathematical problem solving are related with visuospatial ability. A good spatial conceptualization is an asset to understand the mathematical concept. Perspective understanding, geometrical shapes, and visual concept relation are crucial skills in spatial ability. These factors are also needed in mathematical performance. This research is intended to test the relationship between spatial abilities and mathematical performance. Data are collected from 220 children (7 to 11 years old) by giving them the spatial ability test which consists of spatial topology, projective, euclidis, and mathematical test. Result shows that there is a significant relationship between total spatial ability, topology, euclidis and mathematical performance. In the contrary, it shows that there is no relationship between projective spatial ability and mathematical performance.
