Abstract

Nineteen Eighty-Four has been widely recontextualised in many different situations, but there has not been any discourse that tries to relate it with surveillance issues in the U.K. in the context of Covid-19 pandemic other than Big Brother Watch’s Stop Covid Passes campaign. This paper aims to discuss how the civil liberties organisation brings the fear of surveillance state presented in the novel into the real life situation happening in the U.K. society.via their public campaign called Stop Covid Passes. The campaign showcases a lot of negative evaluation of the mandatory Covid passes. However, not all agree with the campaign, and many have criticised it as an anti-vaccine movement. This paper conducts qualitative research through the three-dimensional framework of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) presented by Norman Fairclough to reveal the organisation's true intention behind the campaign and to examine the role of Nineteen Eighty-Four in this particular context. The findings show that the intention is indeed to stop the U.K. from becoming a surveillance state.

Abstract

STOVIA serves as a starting point of medical education in Indonesia and is interesting for historical study, especially after the discovery of inscriptions. This inscription consists of different letters and languages and, despite its limited information, clearly plays a pivotal role as a means of communication in its era. Inscriptions are considered the most reliable data source as they are made in their era and need to be studied, transliterated, and translated. This paper reviews two inscriptions found in STOVIA Salemba: the groundbreaking and the building inauguration and appreciation for one of the directors of STOVIA, dr. J. Noordhoek Hegt. This study was conducted to extract the information from the inscription to allow the community learns from its content. This paper also discusses the role of the colonial inscription as the marker of medical institution development in the Dutch East Indies.

Abstract

This paper wants to show the relationship between bronze statues and mandala. The object of the research is 23 small bronze statues of Nganjuk owned by the National Museum. These statues were once part of a statues collection found in the rice fields of Candi Lor, Nganjuk in 1913. Candi Lor is a temple built by Mpu Sindok. This paper presumes that these bronze statues of Nganjuk are statues that were placed on the altar during the Mpu Sindok era for ritual purposes. This paper argues that the Nganjuk bronze statues represent a certain type of mandala. The paper shows that the mandala of the statues is the Vajradhatu Mandala. For this purpose, this study is using the Vajradhatu Mandala concept of Shingon Buddhism. F.D.K Bosch in an article in 1929 mentioned the possibility of reading the Nganjuk statues based on the Shingon mandala, but he wrote about it briefly. Shingon Buddhism is a sect of Buddhism in Japan, which has been known since the 9th century to date using the Vajradhatu Mandala. Shingon founder, Kukai, studied the concept of the mandala in China. Recent studies show the concept of Vajradhatu Mandala was not only brought by Kukai to Japan but also spread to Southeast Asia, although it was later replaced by other types of mandalas.The Vajradhatu Mandala is a mandala centered on Vairocana. There is a core layer and an outer layer in the Shingon concept in the Vajradhatu Mandala. The core layer consists of 37 main pantheons and the outer layer is a layer that contains protective deities. The last layer of this outer layer is called Trailokyavijaya that consists of the incarnations of Vajrapani and several deities that have krodha’s expression. The objective of this paper is to show that the remaining Nganjuk statues owned by the National Museum have these elements: Vairocana, the Four Tathagatas, and also Trailokyavijaya.

Abstract

Covid-19 is one of the most disturbing infections that has rattled the world in recent history. This flu affected nearly all the countries of the world with different degrees of medical, scientific, social and scholarly attentions. The humanities are not left out from the perspective of language and communication during the pandemic. In the light of the above, this paper undertakes a multimodal semiotic analysis of Covid-19 memes in the Nigerian context with a view to showing how the visual and language complement each other in communicating aspects of Nigerian socio-political realities during the pandemic. Among the images circulated through the Whatsapp medium, ten were selected for this study and Kress and van Leeuween’s (2006) multimodal theory was adopted as our theoretical framework. The findings revealed that language and visual images effectively complement each other as viewers are made to gain easy and quick access to the messages being communicated with a visual understanding of the realities on ground.

Abstract

Human traffic flow in Indonesia is increasing due to various available facilities. As a result, more foreigners come to work in Indonesia. The presence of foreign workers then requires supervision so that they do not threaten the resilience of the Indonesian people. This paper aims to analyze the intelligence analysis process carried out by the Foreigner Supervision Unit of the Tangerang Police Satintelkam while supervising foreign workers at PT. CGC Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method to collect data from a literature study. The analysis uses descriptive qualitative analysis and qualitative comparative analysis. The results show that foreign workers provide two main threats to regional resilience, especially in the economic sector, namely (1) the locals can lose their livelihoods because foreigners carry out too many economic activities; and (2) the locals can lose the opportunities to occupy important positions at work because the foreigners already fill the positions. This situation reflects the importance of intelligence monitoring by the Tangerang Police Intelligence unit. The monitoring is carried out with several institutions under the Foreigner Supervision Unit (Timpora). Supervision is conducted administratively through coordination, on-site supervision, open intelligence, and closed intelligence. Immigration intelligence plays a role in the early detection of foreigners' threats, including the disruption of territorial security caused by foreign workers with illegal permits.
