Abstract

Along with criticism of objectivity, phenomenology is also often criticized for limitations in the generalization of findings. Because of its focus on unique individual experiences, phenomenology tends to ignore the social, cultural, and historical contexts that may influence those experiences. This makes it difficult to generalize phenomenological findings to wider populations, and limits their relevance in more general theory development.

This article uses the literature study method to explore research objectives, using articles, books and other reference sources.

Abstract

This article explains how the operation of hegemonic power of capitalism works in the 2024 election in Indonesia, both in the presidential and legislative elections. The hegemonic power refers to the third-dimensional power introduced by Lukes, namely power in the ideological realm. This article argues that capitalism hegemony “grasps” all dominant narratives that emerged during the 2024 elections, both from election participants and civil societies. By using the concept of ideological cynicism introduced by Žižek, this article explains that capitalism in the ideological realm can be so effective because it appears not as an ideology, but as a kind of truth believed by everyone.

Abstract

Digitalization has caused the images of time and space to blur. The rapid flow of mediated information causes confusion and a lack of humanitarian awareness. This paper explains the reality of the Poco Leok case in the construction and expansion of the PLTP Ulumbu. Using Dromology theory by Paul Virilio in "Speed and Politics" with a qualitative approach. The Poco Leok case is often based on media narratives that state that the expansion of the PLTP Ulumbu is for the benefit of common welfare, but in reality, the expansion of the PLTP Ulumbu sacrifices and torments the people through land-greedy investments with iron fist regimes, domination of power, and neglect of people's voices in the public sphere. The media in the PLTP Ulumbu case succeeded in polarizing the community based on their interests and making the community the subject of receiving geothermal potential that must be managed.

Abstract

Social media, as a virtual platform for social contact, has undoubtedly brought about significant social changes over time, thanks to the ever-advancing technology of today. As society progresses, the way individuals behave can vary between their actions in the physical world and their actions in the online realm. The omnipresent TikTok application has enthralled a wide array of populations, encompassing both the privileged and the labouring class, across various age brackets. Social change refers to a fundamental shift in the structure and functioning of social relationships, encompassing aspects such as power dynamics, decision-making processes, social influence, family connections, and population patterns. In this instance, the author will examine how the TikTok application might effectively redirect individuals' desires towards an institution or the public in the virtual realm. This research employs a qualitative approach through a literature review, wherein prior studies are analysed and synthesized to create a new body of literature.

Abstract

Technological changes in this day and age mean that people in all parts of the world can communicate with each other, even over long distances. In Indonesia itself, there is a lot of use of online platforms in cyberspace. One of them is by creating an Online Community which allows a group of people to gather with the same goal to solve or discuss problems that are happening around them. Marginal school communities become online community forums for those interested in being part of volunteering who live in Yogyakarta. The volunteer action in question is carrying out various program plans which are considered to help improve personal quality and create personal potential for street children and marginalized children who do not receive the rights they should have. So, it can be seen that the Marginal School Community recruits online through their personal Instagram account called (@sekolah_marjinal). This Marginal School Community carries out various programs that support street children, such as teaching and learning programs, posyandu programs and community health centers and identity advocacy programs. The method used in this research to collect data is literature study, which involves searching or reading data from journals, books, related websites and scientific articles.

Abstract

Scientific work in the field of legal science in Indonesia often differs from the criteria for empirical scientific research at the level of modern science. The results of thesis and dissertation-level scientific research at law faculties have so far emphasized technical-juridical analysis for the needs of legal practice rather than academic research that criticizes and creates new scientific theories in the field of law. Dogmatic legal analysis, it seems, takes precedence over academic legal analysis that allows researchers to fulfill the critical scientific need for the renewal of legal dogmatics by the development of Society. The framework section is usually narrated without construction in the form of a 'theoretical framework' or 'analytical model' which often shows confusion in legal research. Legal dogmatic research focuses on evaluating the structure (language) of law and legal practice, i.e. how far the elements of the article as evaluation indicators are used with the resolution of the particular legal event being studied. Scholarly legal research often uses theory in presenting the framework for its theses and dissertations, and more than one theory is even related to the various narratives and descriptions of the proposed research. In addition, legal researchers present major frameworks in 'grand theory', 'middle-range theory', and applied theory' for research typically conducted in the field of pure science (pure social and human sciences).
