Abstract

The digital nomad is a new type of worker who works from a location other than a “traditional office,” with the freedom to choose where and when to work as long as they have good internet access. The presence of digital nomads has an impact on the dynamics or social changes in society. The public’s reaction to the appearance of this digital traveler was mixed. Some people believe that these new ways of working will harm the work system, but many are gradually adopt it. Bali has become one of the strategic locations and is widely used as a destination for digital nomads. In fact, this is supported by the work from Bali policy which aims to drive the economy in Bali, especially during the pandemic. Indonesia, on the other hand, does not yet have any specific regulations governing digital nomads. The goal of this research is twofold: the first is to conduct a sentiment analysis on Twitter about digital nomads to see how the community reacts, and the second is to see the implications of government policies regarding digital nomads. This study employs qualitative methods with a case study approach, as well as big data methods related to sentiment analysis.

Abstract

Many tourists destinations experience revitalisation through funding from foreign capital that is brought by gentrification. As a result, tourist areas transform into regions that are friendly toward tourists and investment. Various studies see gentrification as an expression of consumer demand, individual preferences over the law of supply and demand. However, this article argues that tourism gentrification shows a different dynamic, namely driving the significance of tourism growth that supports overtourism. This article focuses on the reason why Balinese do not feel that the phenomenon of gentrification and the development of protests are a part of the symptom of overtourism. Research was conducted in the three tourist areas of Sanur, Kuta, and Ubud. These locations were indicated as gentrification areas. The three locations present a fascinating tension regarding the role of tourism to draw the expansion of capitalism through capital investment and corporate actions, as well as opposed interests that struggle to control the production, representation, and image of tourism in Bali. Research results indicated that the gentrification of tourism not only causes land and property rental values to increase, but also drives land transformation and utilization in Bali. The gentrification of tourism in Bali refers to the socio-spatial transformation by which private corporations and the state invest in low-class areas, marked by the construction of tourist facilities that encourage signs of overtourism.

Abstract

This article seeks to observe the modernization of economic institutions that were originally working traditionally, into alternative economic institutions that continue to apply the value of locality. Previous studies on LPN Limau Manis only discussed its role in poverty alleviation and the management of its economic organization, but did not provide a comprehensive explanation of the transformation of LPN that combines traditional and modern concepts. This article argues that the institutional modernization of LPN Limau Manis that occurs remains attached to the customary values of the Nagari society. The qualitative method was used to collect data using a case study research. This article revealed that the LPN, which underwent a transformation into a modern management system, remained attached to the social conditions of Nagari society as seen from the social profit-based approach. However, the transformation of LPN to an alternative economy also shows an element of local capitalism that

Abstract

Several studies have noted that electoral support for one of the Islamist parties in Indonesia, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), is mostly concentrated in urban areas. While I agree with this observation, I found that these studies did not pay adequate attention to the diversity of socio-political conditions in urban areas that contributed to the varying electoral support for PKS. One of these socio-political conditions is what Lipset and Rokkan (1967) conceptualized as cleavages (divisions of society). Based on the results of 2014 and 2019 local parliamentary elections in Javan urban areas, I argue that there are three cleavage patterns formed in these areas, namely single dominant, dyadic dominant, and fragmented. Each cleavage pattern has implications for the formation of a type of support for PKS. In regions with single dominant and dyadic dominant cleavages, the Islamist party tends to receive moderate or low support. Further, compared to the the support gained by the winning party, PKS’ votes tends to be much lower. However, in areas with fragmented cleavage, PKS tends to receive high or moderate support, and the votes gained by PKS tend to be comparable to that of the winning party. The data in this article were obtained from secondary data regarding PKS’ gains in the legislative elections for district/city parliaments in 2014 and 2019 in 46 urban areas in Java, online interviews, and literature studies.
