Abstract

Customary forest management is an integral part of environmental sustainability and welfare of Indigenous communities. This article aims to review the role of the Dayak Kanayatn indigenous community in the management of the Bukit Marang Customary Forest from a political sociology perspective. This study focuses on the interactions between traditional values, public policies, and socio-political dynamics that influence forest resource management. This study used a descriptive research design with a qualitative approach. Primary and secondary data were obtained from the literature. The results show that the Dayak Kanayatn community plays an essential role in forest conservation, guided by a solid customary system and local wisdom principles. These roles from the socio-political review of this study include (1) forest conservation guardians, (2) local knowledge-based forest management, (3) customary law enforcers, (4) cultural and spiritual custodians, (5) biodiversity protectors, (6) land conflict mediators, and (7) promoters of sustainable development. This article recommends steps to strengthen the empowerment of Indigenous communities in facing current socio-political dynamics through collaboration between actors ranging from the government, advocacy organizations, and communities.

Abstract

This study aims to explore teacher salary schemes as a strategic instrument for strengthening human capital formation in the context of Indonesia Emas 2045. This study uses a qualitative approach to understand the relationship between teacher compensation and human capital quality through a conceptual and contextual analysis. The literature review method was chosen because it systematically examines theories, empirical findings, and regulatory frameworks. The main sources of research include laws and regulations governing teacher welfare, official reports from state institutions such as the Central Statistics Agency and the Ministry of Education, and international publications, including the OECD, which provide cross-country comparative data. The data collection strategy involved selecting documents with high credibility, direct relevance, and up-to-date information, which were then analyzed using content analysis techniques that emphasized categorization, interpretation, and synthesis. The results of the study show that teacher salary policy reform is a strategic prerequisite for strengthening the quality of human capital and accelerating Indonesia's competitiveness. Evidence from the 2022 PISA results, which show a decline in mathematics, reading, and science achievement, confirms the urgency of improving instructional quality based on teacher welfare and professionalism in Indonesia. Human capital theory explains that investing in educators as knowledge producers can increase productivity and drive long-term growth through skill accumulation and innovation diffusion. Literature findings show that adequate compensation strengthens motivation, retention, and pedagogical commitment, whereas low salaries correlate with a decline in teaching performance and student engagement.

Abstract

The farming community in Renah Kayu Embun Village utilizes land for farming to meet their daily needs. However, they face several obstacles, including weather conditions, land slopes, limited equipment, and long distances to market. This requires the community to adapt to the conditions it faces. This study aims to describe and explain the adaptation strategies employed by the farming community to survive the conditions they face. Data collection methods included interviews, observation, and documentation.The research results show that there are several adaptation strategies carried out by farming communities: First, adaptation strategies to the natural environment; (1) Digging a well, (2) making a water reservoir, (3) carrying out the tradition of sending rain. (4) Convert sloping land into steps. Second, adaptation strategies to tool limitations include (1) making sungkaik and coffee grinders and (2) Usoh as a traditional means of transportation. Some of the adaptation strategies carried out by farming communities are in the form of ideas, knowledge, and culture that are formed as a result of long interactions with the natural and social environment.

Abstract

The Merah Putih Village Cooperative (KDMP) program is a strategic program initiated by the Indonesian Government to accelerate economic development starting from the village level, aligned with the national long-term development plan agenda. Although this program has significant potential for economic impact, a fundamental understanding of its transmission mechanisms to the local economy remains limited. This study aims to analyze and formulate a conceptual model that maps the multiplier effect transmission mechanisms generated by the KDMP. Using a qualitative method through a systematic literature review, this study identifies and synthesizes various pathways of cooperative economic impact on the local economy. The study results show that KDMP, with its business model, creates multiplier effects through three primary transmission pathways. First, the input provision and consumption. The second is financial intermediation and investment, and the third is value chain aggregation and integration. These pathways collectively generate reinforcing direct, indirect, and induced multiplier effects. This study also formulates a conceptual framework that can serve as an analytical tool for policymakers to design effective support interventions and as a foundation for future research to measure the actual magnitude of the KDMP’s multiplier effect.

Abstract

This research emphasizes the intersection between China’s Guanxi principle and capitalism in shaping market access for Multinational corporations (MNC) in the country. The analysis draws upon the theories of state capitalism and transnational capitalism to examine how the guanxi principle functions as both an informal institution and a strategic business tool that serves as a mediator of the power dynamics between the state and private firms. According to this research’s qualitative analysis of secondary sources and case studies, the results indicate that guanxi-capitalism serves as a hybrid mechanism that combines a traditional social networking mechanism among its people with modern economic practices, in which the purpose is to emphasize trust-building, minimize transaction costs, and streamline the MNCs to navigate within the institutional voids. This paper argues that guanxi-capitalism not only enhances formal legal frameworks but also serves as a balancer between state control and private control of the market. Unfortunately, there are numerous Western criticisms regarding the high possibility of corruption and lack of transparency, which are regarded as ethical dilemmas within guanxi capitalism, which occurred in a past MNC operational within China. This study concludes that guanxi-capitalism serves as an example of a blended model of capitalism that combines social norms, state intervention within the market, and global economic participation, which simultaneously redefines traditional Western market governance.

Abstract

In Indonesian law, marriage is a physical and spiritual bond between men and women who aim to form a happy family based on trust in God Almighty. The heresy drama series display inner marriage practice, namely the marriage process that emphasizes the spiritual aspect without fulfilling formal requirements in the form of a marriage guardian, witness human beings, and ijab valid acceptance. Research​ This use method study law normative with approach legislation and analysis draft law marriage in Indonesia. The study results show that inner marriage in the Bidaah series is done through unilateral declaration and claiming spiritual validity, with God as the guardian and angels as witnesses. This is contradictory to Article 1 of the Law of Marriage, which regulates marriage as a physical and spiritual bond that must fulfil the conditions of formal law. In addition, the practice of inner marriage also violates Islamic law, as stated in the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), which requires the existence of guardians, witnesses, and clear acceptance of consent to ensure a legitimate marriage. Thus, the practice of inner marriage, as displayed in the series No fulfil terms and conditions marriage as arranged in law positive Indonesia, renders the marriage void ab initio.

Abstract

The increase in student politics helps students gain leadership power and become aware.  However, university campuses are being contaminated with violence, party interests, personal benefits, and more. Student politics has both negative and positive impacts on society. This study, which is based on primary data gathered from 100 respondents at the University of Rajshahi, aims to examine the role of student politics in Bangladesh from July 2024 to date, to know people’s opinion about student politics, to assess the impact of student politics on academic and governance activities, and to identify the positive and negative aspects of student politics. A purposive sampling method was used. The study shows two sides of the coin on students’ politics: On one side of the coin, it makes the student leader politically aware. However, it hampers the normal functioning of educational institutions, creating administrative problems, violence, and many more. The researchers have offered some practical recommendations for reform at the end of the study for student politics to uphold a positive role in democracy and institutions, and the significance of democratization, transparency, and accountability.

Abstract

A prenuptial agreement is an important instrument in marriage law that regulates agreements between prospective spouses to arrange their rights, obligations, and property prior to marriage. The study of prenuptial agreements is particularly urgent in the modern context, where social and economic dynamics continue to evolve and influence family life. This study aims to examine, from a legal perspective, how prenuptial agreements are regulated in Indonesian civil law, their implementation in society, and their legal implications for the division of property and safeguarding each party's rights following marriage. The research method used is a normative method, using the analysis of legal documents and related literature, as well as case studies to demonstrate how prenuptial agreements are used in practice. The study’s results found that prenuptial agreements possess enforceable legal authority as long as they meet the requirements of a valid agreement according to the Civil Code and applicable laws and regulations, including the Marriage Law. These agreements serve to avoid property disputes at the end of a marriage through divorce or death. However, it is of paramount importance that legal convergence regarding prenuptial agreements is achieved. Similarly, the role of the notary as an authorized official is crucial in providing optimal legal protection. The legal implications of prenuptial agreements are vital for ensuring legal certainty for couples, particularly concerning the division of joint property, which can be adjusted to the parties' wishes in accordance with the initial agreement

Abstract

While Indonesia has implemented a wide array of social assistance and subsidy programs to counteract poverty and inequality, the redistributive impact of these policies remains questionable. This study presents a rigorous and critical examination of the causal effect of income redistribution through cash transfers and subsidies on social inequality, employing Propensity Score Matching (PSM) to control for selection bias. Utilizing data from the nationally representative SUSENAS (2019-2022) across the pre-, during, and post-pandemic periods, this analysis compared beneficiary and non-beneficiary households across various socioeconomic dimensions. In contrast to previous descriptive work, our findings provide strong evidence of the short-term redistribution effects on per-capita consumption and the household Gini index. The results indicate that consumption increased on average by 8.3 percent, and inequality fell significantly, with some degree of spatial heterogeneity. The most significant effects on inequality were observed in Western Indonesia, whereas the Eastern areas experienced minor effects. The analysis reveals policy-relevant heterogeneity, with larger benefits for female-headed households and those receiving multiple programs than for male-headed households. This study contributes to the existing literature by (1) using PSM to assess the cross-program redistributive effect, (2) illustrating the spatial disparities of implementation, and (3) exploring complementarity among types of assistance. Policy implications call for integrated targeting systems, real-time microdata surveillance, and adaptive program design that is region-specific. Redistribution is not enough; substantive reforms must support fiscal efforts for long-term social justice.
