Abstract

Background, Advances in digital technology have given rise to various forms of digital crime. One such crime is the case of cross-border online fraud in Asia, which has been made into a movie titled “No More Bets.”. Aim, This study was conducted to examine gender representation in films and the semiotic signs that shape gender meaning in narratives of digital crime. Methods, This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data validity is tested through triangulation of methods. Results, The results of the study show that gender representation in films still reproduces gender power relations, as it continues to place women in a position that is unequal to men, with male characters being portrayed as dominant and female characters as vulnerable. Signs form gender meaning based on John Fiske's semiotics, at the level of reality, the level of representation, and the level of ideology. These three levels are interrelated in shaping the meaning of male and female roles in the digital crime system. This shows that gender meaning does not appear suddenly, but is constructed through visual signs, narratives, and ideologies present in films. Conclusions, Thus, the film “No More Bets” tends to reproduce the representation of men as the dominant party in the narrative of digital crime. Implication, This study confirms that a semiotic approach to examining gender representation on digital platforms is relevant and that gender sensitivity is necessary in the film industry to prevent the reproduction of gender stereotypes.

Abstract

Background. The gap in access to education in rural areas is still a challenge for social development in Indonesia. Orphans from underprivileged families face the risk of dropping out of school due to limited education costs. In this context, local initiatives in the form of village scholarship programs are an important instrument to expand access to education based on social solidarity. Purpose. This study analyzes the management of social capital in the implementation of the orphan scholarship program in Klangen Village, Klangen District, Cirebon Regency. Method, This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study design, based on village program documentation and a synthesis of social capital literature. The theoretical framework refers to the perspectives of Putnam (bonding and bridging social capital), Bourdieu (social capital as a relational resource), and Coleman (the function of social capital in the creation of human capital). Results. The results of the analysis show that social capital bonding plays a strong role in the legitimacy and mobilization of local resources, while social capital bridging still needs to be strengthened to ensure the sustainability of the program. Conclusion. Strengthening formal governance and accountability mechanisms are key factors in maintaining public trust and program effectiveness. Implementation. This study recommends the integration of social capital with a transparent administrative system to improve the long-term impact of education.

Abstract

Background. This study analyzes the meaning of fear of loss in the lyrics of Lizzy McAlpine's song “Staying” using Roland Barthes' semiotic approach, which includes the levels of denotation, connotation, and myth. Aims. This study aims to reveal how fear of loss is described through song lyrics as media texts and how this meaning can be linked to the emotional experiences of listeners, especially the younger generation. Methods. The method used is descriptive qualitative research, with data collection techniques that include secondary and primary data, documentary studies of song lyrics supported by interviews, and validity tests through source triangulation. Result. The results of this study indicate that the lyrics of Lizzy McAlpine's song “Staying” describe the meaning of fear of loss through three levels of Roland Barthes' semiotics. At the denotative level, the lyrics describe a relationship that is still physically ongoing but accompanied by emotional exhaustion and doubt. Conclusion. At the connotative level, this song represents the fear of loss that drives the narrator to persevere and delay the breakup even though the relationship has become fragile. At the mythical level, the fear of loss is normalized so that remaining in a painful relationship is considered more acceptable than letting go. In addition, the interview results show that the meaning of the fear of loss in this song aligns with listeners' emotional experiences, in which the fear of loss drives individuals to delay separation and maintain closeness as a form of temporary security.
