Abstract

This article is the result of research on artisanal and small-scale gold mining in Tatelu. The study was conducted using field theory and qualitative research methods. With the permission from the government, mining activities become stable because there is certainty of ownership rights. Mining activities are managed by entrepreneurs, cooperatives, and the village government and have provided welfare for the people of Tatelu and surrounding areas. Villagers involved in mining have transformed economic capital obtained from mining into physical capital in the form of village infrastructure, housing, cultural or educational capital, and investment in other economic activities. There is vertical mobility of several miners and entrepreneurs. Vertical mobility begins after mining activities are stable where the agency capacity of the actors can be realized in the form of actions that allow capital accumulation. The deeper the hole to get gold ore, the more difficult the upward mobility of miners and entrepreneurs with limited economic capital because mining costs are increasingly expensive. There are indications that entrepreneurs with small capital will decrease because they cannot finance the mining business. The results of this study will lead to the conclusion that in the field of small scale mining economic capital is far more decisive than cultural capital and the agency capacity of the actors is increasingly limited as the mine hole deepens.

Abstract

CSR practices continue to grow as a promising alternative development resource, yet still predominantly charitable in nature, preventing them from optimal community empowerment. Therefore, studies and policies at the national and global levels remain in search of the best format to optimize CSR programs’ role in community empowerment. A number of literature show less than optimal active participation and capacity-building of the community if a program is initiated by a directive, top-down approach, providing only a minimal participatory space based on the community’s potentials. Using qualitative method and in-depth interview techniques, this paper finds that the local community participation in PLTU’s CSR implementation is symbolic and characterized by artificiality, mobilization to meet procedures, and more dominant role of elite actors that hampers empowerment and capacity-building of the community at large. The local community’s participation only reaches the level of placation and is not in line with the spirit of the Proper guidelines aimed at achieving the level of partnership. It is due to the company’s approach that tends to be procedural in fulfilling the Proper parameters without providing sufficient space and time to accommodate the community’s aspirations and potentials, the limited program assistances, and the pragmatic society that has lost its communal characters.

Abstract

Street vendors are basically able to sustain the economy of the urban poor. However, their existence is considered to cause disorder in the way they often deal with disciplinary actions organized by the government. The policy set by the provincial government on street vendors should be addressed to the cultural dimension, by minimizing acts of violence and instilling the values of cleanliness and order. Previous studies see street vendors as alternative economic actors who have a stake in the national economy. The studies also put more emphasis on policies (structure) and behaviour of street vendors (culture) so that they do not show sustainable and inclusive development. For this reason, the study in this article adds the dimension of social processes besides discussing the structure and culture under the social development framework in the case of street vendors through interactions that are built between them and the government. It uses surveys as the quantitative method to measure the level or achievements of social development, and applies cluster sampling techniques according to the area and type of commodity. In addition, a qualitative method is also used to explore the meaning of street vendors in dealing with the structure by interviewing and conducting FGDs on market managers, government officials, street vendor associations and street vendors themselves.

Abstract

Informal economic has a big proportion which absorbs 58% of the workforce in Indonesia. In urban areas, it easily can be seen as street vendors (SV). Several previous studies on informal economic about street vendors see them from negative perspective (as the source of urban irregularity) and positive perspective (for contribution to national economic development). By using the literature review, observation, and depth interview with the SV at Jalan Salemba Raya (Jakarta City) and Jalan Raya Sawangan (Depok City), this article particularly shows with the second perspective of previous studies that SV contributes to economic activity in urban. The conversion of SV capitals (social, cultural, and economic) in adaptation effort with using technology (internet) are modes of survival in economic competition and technological changes.

Abstract

After the Reformation, various companies implement CSR programs with various goals, features, and forms. This article discusses the latent function of the BROERI Program of PT Pertamina EP Asset 3 Subang Field as an instrument to build corporate relations with its stakeholder (Community Relation), besides its manifest function in capacity building and community independence (Community Development). The previous studies have been more dominant in highlighting and focusing on the evaluation of community development functions of the CSR programs, rather than their community relation function. Whereas for oil and gas companies, the risk of conflict with communities and other local stakeholders tends to be high and needs to be mitigated with appropriate CSR programs. The author argues that behind the design that is explicitly directed to manifest functions (Community Development), the CSR programs also have a crucial latent function as a medium of communication and negotiation with community stakeholders (Community Relations). The result of this research with the qualitative method shows that the BROERI Program of PT Pertamina EP Asset 3 Subang Field is less able to establish and increase the capacity of the community. Besides, the program also does not function optimally as a "Communication Forum" in maintaining corporate relations with its local stakeholders. Conceptually, in assessing the performance of the CSR program of the oil and gas company, the function of community relations must be a dimension with a balanced weight to the function of community development.
