Abstract

In recent years, tobacco farmers on the slopes of Mount Sindoro and Sumbing (Sinsu), Central Java, have experienced a downturn due to the increasingly falling price of dry chopped tobacco. Instead of making a profit, they are in debt to middlemen, which they may not be able to pay off until the next planting season. As a result, many of the farmers decided to switch to agricultural cultivation or quit tobacco altogether. This research argues that the process of the farmers’ leaving tobacco is also influenced by the dynamics of access and the moral economy, as manifest in the metaphor of the "immoral plant". This research applied ethnographic method to trace the long flow of tobacco distribution which contains moral economic practices and complicated access mechanisms which tend to be detrimental to tobacco farmers. The research was conducted using ethnographic methods on three groups of farmers, namely: farmers who continued to grow tobacco in the dry season, then switched to planting vegetables in the rainy season; farmers switching completely to vegetable crops; and farmers who looked for other professions outside of agriculture.

Abstract

This article examines how information about childhood care available on social media affects the construction of ideal Indonesian mothers. Specifically, I pay closer attention to how women's roles and experiences in stunting prevention campaigns are portrayed and enacted online in the context of the digital socialization of these programs. Based on online ethnographic research from 2021-2023, which examined social media accounts of healthcare professionals and mothers, this article explores the construction of “ideal” motherhood within the digital realm of stunting programs. As health care professionals’ social media accounts carried messages and embodied the authoritative power of medical knowledge, they helped foster a digital health community with an explicit interest in childhood care. The results of this study suggest that the images of subordinate mothers and wives are no longer the only representation of ideal Indonesian mothers. Having been normalized as the primary caregiver, mothers are increasingly taught to think about childcare in a similar way to how the Indonesian state views children as valuable future economic assets in stunting programs. Whereas selflessness and self-sacrifice remain important qualities of the so-called good mother, being knowledgeable and practicing future-oriented parenting are additional important properties that a mother should have to fight against a child's growth being stunted.

Abstract

This article examines the realignment of nationalist higher education in Indonesia to suit market interests. Using a cultural political economy approach to knowledge and power, this article selects and analyses university policy reforms and narratives in Indonesia that have guided university reform in the past decades. It suggests that the reorganisation of Indonesia’s higher education sector can be understood through the relationship between structural change in the global economy, which occurs together with cultural shifts within national and local conditions. It looks at how universities and higher education policies are organised in post-authoritarian Indonesia under the framework of neoliberal governance, which prioritises producing knowledge that aligns with the market imperatives. It argues that the marketisation of higher education discursively and materially reconfigures New Order-style development planning and stylises it into ways that accommodate neoliberal demands.

Abstract

This article attempts to describe Simmel’s intellectual thoughts, particularly those related to the mode of human relationship. By applying a systematic literature review, this article demonstrates the uniqueness of Simmelian thought in comparison to other major classical sociological thinkers, like Emile Durkheim, Karl Marx, and Max Weber. For Simmel, a macro-level analysis on societal culture can be carried out by focusing on the micro dimension of the everyday life. In this context, Simmel speaks of the tragedy of culture that transpires through the process of objectification, where relationships become increasingly impersonal. At the end, this article provides a commentary on Simmel’s ethical thought and its link to the tragedy of culture.

From A Nation of Quarter-Humans to that of A Proud People: Technology Transfer and Nationalism in Indonesia (1951-1998) Suryana, Asep

Abstract

A series of technology transfer programs took place after Indonesia became fully independent, from 1951 until the fall of the New Order (1998). This article unpacks the ways the authoritarian New Order government utilize nationalist discourses, reproduced in the postcolonial context. These programs were framed as an antithesis to the negative psycho-social aspects of Dutch colonialism as a mean of postcolonial national integration, and as a strategy to make Indonesia’s position more equal to the more developed countries. At the same time, the technology transfer programs relied heavily on the high capacity of the authoritarian state. This study asserts that New Order demonstrates a case of a high capacity authoritarian state that utilized the success of the technology transfer programs, along with nationalist discourses, to legitimize its power. This article expands on the arguments of the previous studies that focus on the strong capacity of the state in promoting the technology transfer. The previous studies tend to neglect the post-colonial context (including the reproduction of the discourses of nationalism) in technology transfer program.
