Abstract

This study aims to map the network of basic livelihood needs of the Suku Laut community in Penaah Village, Mensemut Island, Lingga Regency, Riau Islands Province, Indonesia. Basic needs such as food, clean water, shelter, healthcare, and education are critical in determining the quality of life for this small island community. This research employs a qualitative approach using a mini-ethnographic method to explore how the Suku Laut community meets its basic needs and understand its challenges, including environmental degradation, climate change, and modernization. Data were collected through field observations and interviews with traditional leaders, household heads, and women from the Suku Laut community. The findings reveal a high dependency on natural resources, which are increasingly threatened by overexploitation and the impacts of climate change. Access to healthcare and education remains severely limited due to inadequate infrastructure. Social networks play a crucial role in addressing these limitations, including utilizing fish buyer boats (sucheng) as intermediaries to procure essential goods such as food and daily necessities.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk memetakan jaringan pemenuhan kebutuhan hidup dasar masyarakat Suku Laut di Desa Penaah, Pulau Mensemut, Kabupaten Lingga, Kepulauan Riau. Kebutuhan dasar, seperti pangan, air bersih, tempat tinggal, kesehatan, dan pendidikan, menjadi penentu kualitas hidup masyarakat di pulau kecil ini. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode mini-etnografi untuk memahami cara masyarakat memenuhi kebutuhan dasar dan tantangan yang mereka hadapi, termasuk degradasi lingkungan, perubahan iklim, dan modernisasi. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi lapangan dan wawancara dengan tetua adat, kepala keluarga, dan perempuan Suku Laut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa masyarakat Suku Laut sangat bergantung pada sumber daya alam, yang kini terancam oleh eksploitasi berlebihan dan dampak perubahan iklim. Akses terhadap layanan kesehatan dan pendidikan sangat terbatas karena minimnya infrastruktur. Jaringan sosial masyarakat berperan penting dalam mengatasi keterbatasan ini, termasuk melalui pemanfaatan kapal pembeli ikan (sucheng) sebagai pihak ketiga untuk memenuhi kebutuhan pangan dan barang pokok lainnya.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of coffee shops in Banda Aceh through the lens of social entrepreneurship. Coffee shops focus on financial profitability and contribute to social impact through creative programs. Using Max Weber's social action theory, the research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews with coffee shop owners, documentation, and participatory observation. The findings reveal that the rapid growth of coffee shops in Banda Aceh reflects a shift in the community's coffee-drinking culture and their role as public spaces for working, learning, and creating. Additionally, the implementation of social entrepreneurship practices significantly contributes to local economic growth and the development of youth skills through activities such as workshops and mentorship programs. Thus, coffee shops in Banda Aceh have become not only part of the modern lifestyle but also catalysts for fostering social activities and youth empowerment while positively impacting the local creative economy.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis fenomena coffee shop di Banda Aceh dari perspektif social entrepreneurship. Coffee shop tidak hanya berorientasi pada keuntungan finansial, tetapi juga berperan dalam memberikan dampak sosial melalui program-program kreatif. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara mendalam terhadap pemilik coffee shop, dokumentasi, dan observasi partisipatif. Analisis dilakukan menggunakan teori tindakan sosial Max Weber. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perkembangan pesat coffee shop di Banda Aceh tidak hanya mencerminkan perubahan budaya ngopi masyarakat, tetapi juga berfungsi sebagai ruang publik untuk bekerja, belajar, dan berkarya. Selain itu, praktik social entrepreneurship yang diterapkan memberikan kontribusi nyata terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi lokal serta pengembangan keterampilan generasi muda melalui kegiatan seperti workshop dan mentorship. Dengan demikian, coffee shop di Banda Aceh tidak hanya menjadi bagian dari gaya hidup modern, tetapi juga berperan sebagai katalisator dalam mendukung aktivitas sosial dan pemberdayaan generasi muda, sekaligus memberikan dampak positif terhadap ekonomi kreatif di tingkat lokal.

Abstract

Local customary-based forest management holds significant potential for supporting ecological sustainability and the well-being of surrounding communities. Panglima Uteun, as a customary institution, plays a strategic role in maintaining ecological balance and community welfare. Therefore, it is crucial to revitalize the role of Panglima Uteun as a vital component of social capital in sustainable forest management. This study adopts a qualitative approach, utilizing data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and documentation studies. The research focuses on forest areas in Jantho City, Aceh Besar. Data validity is ensured through triangulation to verify the accuracy of the information. The findings reveal that Panglima Uteun plays a strategic role in forest management, including leading the implementation of forest-related customs, enforcing customary laws, and maintaining ecological balance. However, the existence of Panglima Uteun faces challenges from modernization, market pressures, and limited support for customary institutions. Violations of customary norms, such as illegal logging and unauthorized land clearing, emerge as major issues requiring stronger synergy among local communities, Panglima Uteun, and local governments. This study underscores the importance of revitalizing the role of Panglima Uteun as social capital to support sustainable community-based forest management. The integration of customary norms, institutional networks, and the active participation of local communities can be key to successful forest conservation. Policies that strengthen the position of customary institutions in forest governance are necessary to preserve the ecology, economy, and local culture of Aceh Besar.AbstrakPengelolaan hutan berbasis adat lokal memiliki potensi besar dalam mendukung keberlanjutan ekologi dan kesejahteraan masyarakat di sekitarnya. Dalam konteks pengelolaan hutan berbasis norma adat, Panglima Uteun memiliki peran strategis untuk menjaga keseimbangan ekologi hutan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Sehingga diperlukan upaya revitalisasi peran Panglima Uteun sebagai modal sosial dalam pengelolaan hutan yang berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), dan studi dokumentasi. Lokasi penelitian berfokus pada kawasan hutan di Kota Jantho, Aceh Besar. Validitas data dijaga dengan metode triangulasi untuk memastikan keabsahan informasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Panglima Uteun memainkan peran strategis dalam pengelolaan hutan, termasuk memimpin pelaksanaan adat terkait hutan, menegakkan hukum adat, dan menjaga keseimbangan ekologi. Meski demikian, eksistensi Panglima Uteun menghadapi tantangan berupa modernisasi, tekanan pasar, dan lemahnya dukungan terhadap kelembagaan adat. Pelanggaran adat seperti penebangan liar dan pembukaan lahan tanpa izin menjadi isu utama yang membutuhkan sinergi lebih kuat antara masyarakat, Panglima Uteun, dan pemerintah daerah. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya revitalisasi Panglima Uteun sebagai modal sosial untuk mendukung pengelolaan hutan berbasis komunitas yang berkelanjutan. Integrasi norma adat, jejaring kelembagaan, dan peran aktif komunitas lokal dapat menjadi kunci keberhasilan dalam melestarikan hutan. Diperlukan kebijakan yang memperkuat posisi kelembagaan adat dalam tata kelola hutan untuk menjaga ekologi, ekonomi, dan budaya lokal masyarakat Aceh Besar.

Abstract

Indonesias pluralistic society, characterized by its diverse religious communities, presents unique opportunities and challenges in fostering interfaith harmony. Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), as the largest Islamic organization in Indonesia, plays a vital role in bridging religious divides and promoting tolerance. This study examines NUs contributions in Palembang, a city known for its multicultural dynamics, through Pierre Bourdieus framework of social capital, focusing on how trust, social networks, and shared norms are utilized to sustain harmony among diverse groups. This qualitative study employs a descriptive approach, combining primary data from interviews with key informants and secondary data from relevant literature. Informants were selected based on their active involvement in NUs initiatives in Palembang, and data were analysed using the Miles and Huberman framework, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings highlight six core activities undertaken by NU in fostering interfaith harmony: facilitating annual interfaith dialogues, promoting tolerance through educational institutions, engaging in inclusive social activities, advocating moderate Islamic teachings, influencing public policy, and implementing community empowerment programs. These efforts align with Bourdieus components of social capitaltrust, social networks, and shared normsserving as mechanisms to strengthen relationships and mitigate conflicts among religious groups. NUs strategies demonstrate the dynamic interplay between social capital and societal cohesion. The organization effectively mobilizes trust through collaborative efforts such as mutual cooperation in community projects. Its expansive social networks, encompassing grassroots groups and policymakers, amplify its impact, while shared norms of inclusivity and tolerance form the foundation of its habitus. Despite facing challenges such as resistance from conservative groups and structural inequalities, NU adapts by leveraging digital platforms and forming partnerships to sustain its initiatives.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze poverty alleviation strategies for impoverished housewives in Wonokusumo Subdistrict, Surabaya City, using a feminist perspective. Poverty among housewives reflects the feminization of poverty, influenced by gender inequality, patriarchal culture, and limited access to economic opportunities. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings reveal that both productive and non-productive impoverished housewives face challenges such as double burdens, limited capital, and socio-economic marginalization. Poverty alleviation strategies include social protection to meet basic needs and empowerment programs based on their potential to enhance capabilities and economic independence. A collaborative approach combining social protection and empowerment effectively alleviates economic burdens and breaks the cycle of intergenerational poverty. This study recommends strategies tailored to the specific needs of housewives to ensure poverty alleviation programs are more targeted and sustainable.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis strategi pengentasan kemiskinan pada ibu rumah tangga miskin di Kelurahan Wonokusumo, Kota Surabaya, dengan menggunakan perspektif feminis. Kemiskinan pada ibu rumah tangga mencerminkan feminisasi kemiskinan yang dipengaruhi ketimpangan gender, budaya patriarki, serta rendahnya akses terhadap peluang ekonomi. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi, dan studi dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ibu rumah tangga miskin produktif dan non-produktif menghadapi tantangan berupa beban ganda, keterbatasan modal, serta keterasingan sosial dan ekonomi. Strategi pengentasan kemiskinan mencakup jaminan sosial untuk memenuhi kebutuhan dasar dan program pemberdayaan berbasis potensi untuk meningkatkan kapabilitas dan kemandirian ekonomi ibu rumah tangga. Pendekatan kolaboratif antara jaminan sosial dan pemberdayaan dinilai efektif dalam meringankan beban ekonomi dan memutus rantai kemiskinan antar generasi. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan strategi berbasis kebutuhan spesifik ibu rumah tangga untuk memastikan program pengentasan kemiskinan lebih tepat sasaran dan berkelanjutan.

Abstract

The increasing prevalence of negative news in digital media has raised concerns about its psychological impacts, particularly on Generation Z (Gen Z), who are deeply immersed in digital technology. Media literacy is believed to play a crucial role in mitigating these impacts by enabling individuals to critically evaluate information. This study explores the influence of media literacy on the reception of negative news among Gen Z in Banda Aceh. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 281 respondents aged 1826 years through an online questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to evaluate the relationships between exposure to negative news, digital literacy, and information reception. The findings reveal that neither exposure to negative news nor the level of digital literacy significantly affects how Gen Z processes and interprets negative information. Despite the non-significant relationships, the study emphasizes the role of media literacy as a vital skill for Gen Z in critically filtering and assessing digital content. The study highlights the necessity of enhancing media literacy to foster resilience against the psychological risks posed by negative news in the digital ecosystem. By equipping Gen Z with critical thinking skills and digital competencies, individuals can better navigate the overwhelming flow of information in online media. Future research should further investigate the long-term effects of media literacy on psychological well-being and behavioral outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the root causes, forms of conflict, and solutions to farmers' resistance against free-grazing livestock practices in Nisam Subdistrict, North Aceh Regency. The conflict is triggered by crop damage caused by free-roaming livestock, differing interpretations of regulations, and land-use changes. This research employs a qualitative approach with an ethnographic method and uses James Scott's resistance theory as the analytical framework. Data were collected through non-participant observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that the conflict significantly impacts agricultural productivity and social relations between farmers and livestock owners. Proposed solutions include restricting grazing areas, improving fences, providing compensation to farmers, and strengthening the role of the government and village officials in enforcing regulations, providing facilities, and monitoring. These findings underscore the importance of stakeholder collaboration in fostering harmonious relations and supporting the sustainability of the agricultural sector.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi akar masalah, bentuk konflik, dan solusi atas resistensi petani terhadap praktik peternakan lepas liar di Kecamatan Nisam, Kabupaten Aceh Utara. Konflik ini dipicu oleh kerusakan tanaman akibat ternak lepas, perbedaan pemahaman regulasi, serta alih fungsi lahan. Penelitian ini mengunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode etnografi dan menggunakan teori resistensi James Scott sebagaia kerangka analisis. Data diperoleh melalui observasi non-partisipan, wawancara mendalam, dan analisis dokumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konflik berdampak besar terhadap produktivitas pertanian dan hubungan antara petani serta peternak. Solusi yang diusulkan meliputi pembatasan area ternak, perbaikan pagar, pemberian kompensasi kepada petani, dan penguatan peran pemerintah serta aparatur desa dalam penegakan peraturan, penyediaan fasilitas, dan pengawasan. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya kolaborasi antara pemangku kepentingan untuk menciptakan hubungan harmonis dan mendukung keberlanjutan sektor pertanian.

Abstract

The phenomenon of quiet quitting has been recognized as a growing trend in the workplace, particularly among recent graduates post-COVID-19 pandemic. It reflects a deliberate strategy by young workers to resist excessive workloads and address organizational neglect of work-life balance. This study employs a qualitative approach, focusing on five informants who are recent university graduates working in Yogyakarta's informal sector. In-depth interviews were conducted to understand their experiences and strategies in practicing quiet quitting. The findings reveal that quiet quitting emerges as a coping mechanism against exploitative work demands, involving strategies such as rejecting additional tasks outside working hours, clearly separating work from personal life, and negotiating a balance between professional obligations and personal well-being. These practices indicate resistance to exploitative workplace norms and highlight a broader effort to establish sustainable work-life dynamics. The study underscores quiet quitting as a covert resistance strategy that is intricately tied to maintaining well-being and balance.AbstrakFenomena quiet quitting telah menjadi tren yang semakin berkembang di dunia kerja, terutama di kalangan fresh graduate pasca-pandemi COVID-19. Praktik ini menunjukkan adanya strategi yang disengaja oleh pekerja muda untuk menolak beban kerja berlebihan serta kurangnya perhatian organisasi terhadap keseimbangan antara kehidupan kerja dan pribadi. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan melibatkan lima informan yang merupakan lulusan perguruan tinggi di Yogyakarta dan bekerja di sektor informal. Wawancara mendalam dilakukan untuk memahami pengalaman mereka dan strategi yang diterapkan dalam praktik quiet quitting. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa quiet quitting muncul sebagai mekanisme penyesuaian terhadap tuntutan kerja yang eksploitatif, dengan strategi seperti menolak tugas tambahan di luar jam kerja, memisahkan secara tegas kehidupan pribadi dari pekerjaan, serta menegosiasikan keseimbangan antara tanggung jawab profesional dan kesejahteraan pribadi. Praktik ini menunjukkan adanya bentuk resistensi terhadap norma kerja yang eksploitatif sekaligus menekankan perlunya upaya lebih luas untuk menciptakan dinamika kerja yang berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa quiet quitting merupakan strategi resistensi terselubung yang terkait erat dengan upaya menjaga kesejahteraan dan keseimbangan hidup.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the role of the Mitra Masyarakat Inklusif (MMI) in empowering persons with disabilities through entrepreneurship programs in Bengkulu City, Indonesia. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with the research conducted at the MMI office. Informants included community leaders, managers of the MMI Difabelpreneur Center (DCM), and community members with disabilities. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, non-participant observations, and document analysis, and were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, comprising data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing.

These efforts not only improve economic well-being but also reshape societal and governmental perceptions of the capabilities of persons with disabilities, fostering greater inclusivity and equal rights in economic participation.AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan peran Komunitas Mitra Masyarakat Inklusif (MMI) dalam pemberdayaan ekonomi penyandang disabilitas melalui program wirausaha di Kota Bengkulu. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan informan meliputi pengurus komunitas, pengelola Difabelpreneur Center MMI (DCM), dan anggota komunitas penyandang disabilitas. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur, observasi non-partisipan, dan studi dokumentasi, lalu dianalisis menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa MMI berperan dalam pemberdayaan ekonomi penyandang disabilitas melalui unit usaha DCM, seperti Laundry, Caf Pojok PeDe, Cemilan Keripik, Kain Ecoprint, dan Kopi PeDe. Program ini membuktikan bahwa penyandang disabilitas mampu menjadi pelaku ekonomi produktif. Selain itu, MMI menyelenggarakan pelatihan keterampilan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas usaha dan mendorong kesetaraan hak ekonomi. Upaya ini tidak hanya meningkatkan kesejahteraan, tetapi juga mengubah persepsi masyarakat terhadap kemampuan penyandang disabilitas.
