Clear Explanation

Serbia is mostly rural country, as three fourth of its territory make rural areas, while almost half population is living in rural areas. Serbian agriculture is the sector which is very important for the total economy of the country in respect of resources, participation in GDP, employment as well as importance for rural areas and population. This is the only sector in Serbian economy that shows positive foreign trade balance in the recent several years.There are potentials for development of agrarian entrepreneurship on one hand, but on the other, there are constraints in existence of great number of small family farms whereas the huge share could not have commercial profile and could not live only from agricultural activities. The concept of multifunctional development of agriculture and rural areas is still present mostly in scientific and political sphere without clear explanation or interpretation as well as mechanisms of implementation. Serbia’s rural space is heterogenic and devastated in different extent, and therefore extremely complicated for planning of multifunctional development.

New View

Since the second half of the XVIII century a new view of the punishment purpose in criminal law has been formed. According to the theory of the great Italian thinker and jurist C. Beccarria the purpose of punishment «is not to torture and torment a person, but to prevent the perpetrator from harming society again and to keep others from doing the same». This formulation of the definition gave a new impetus to the development of Russian penitentiary system. New methods have been actively used to correct the prisoner. Gradually, work becomes the main way to influence prisoners, its main task is to train prisoners to work and earn money in honest way, to give them an opportunity to acquire some professional skills, so that after serving their sentence they can more easily adapt to the life outside the correctional institution, thereby it reduces the number of recidivism. On November 22, 1918 the Central Punitive Department of the People’s Commissariat of Justice of the RSFSR issued a circular «On the Creation of Agricultural Labor Colonies». As a result, various colonies were created everywhere, including in Smolensk Governorate. In the article the author describes types of agricultural activities carried out by the colonists in the governorate, their work specifics, as well as the role of agricultural colonies in the domestic penitentiary system in the 1920s.

The paper analyzes modern rural household in Yugoslavia, both by region and at the level of the country as a whole. The author begins by providing a statistical and sociological definition of basic terms, and proceeds with a combination of social and demographic analysis. The basic criterion used is the residential status of the population (permanent residence) based on the administrative distribution of settlements with the non-city ("other") population treated as part of rural population. The descriptive basis was formed on the basis of two types of sources: population census data and relevant studies, on the one hand, and comprehensive researches of rural family in the 1990s, on the other. The modernization theory has provided the basic framework for the analysis of the state and movement in rural households in Yugoslavia since the beginning of the 20th century, but the paper deals mainly with social and economic developments following the Second World War. The following components of the rural households are analyzed: dynamics and average size, as well as composition of households. With reference to the level of the social change they had undergone and some demographic special features, rural households are classified into four main types: 1) purely agricultural; 2) mixed (with income earned from agricultural and non-agricultural activities); 3) non-agricultural; and 4) households of elderly people. The appearance and growth of mixed households during the pest-war period, following adoption of the socialistic command economy, came as a result of objective contradictions in transformation of an individual agricultural household into a modern market-oriented holding, and its cooperation with the state-owned cooperative sector. Since early 1980s, however, with deterioration in its position, agricultural production is gradually given up or maintained at the subsistence level, while most family members earn their living from the non-agricultural sector. These tendencies were most rapidly observed in Vojvodina, which is the most fertile region of the country, and most slowly in central Serbia. As a result of the above social and economic transformation the village was also exposed to a strong demographic transformation, which was most readily observed in ageing and feminization of population and its labor force and narrowing down of family structure to conjugal family united through marriage, which is made up of aged parents without an heir. The rural household and/or family have undergone crucial changes in respect of three main segments: 1) size; 2) structure; and 3) position and role of family members. This last aspect has been the subject of numerous comprehensive studies into the way of life in villages. The analysis of family relations in a village was conducted in two segments: intra-generation (between spouses and between children, especially of different gender) and inter-generation (parent - children relations). Segregation of roles by gender is still characterized by male domination, husband - head of the family, and son - the heir. Housework, parenthood, and the homestead itself (due to the increased engagement of the husband in non-agricultural activities) are the main sources of self-realization of women. Marriage and bearing children (especially male children) represent the main social promotion channel for young girls in a village environment, while education and earning income from work outside the village do not ensure a significant role in making decisions on family life in general, children's future or even personal destiny. Incidence of conflict in marriage is rare. Satisfaction with a twofold role of the mother and housekeeper is very high as well as understanding for tl1e difficulties of the social position of a man - the "bread winner" in the current social crisis and disintegration. The author points to the lack of data on rural households in Kosovo and Metohia caused by the boycott of the latest census by the majority, ethnic Albanian population. An attempt was hence made to compensate for the lack of quantitative information by presenting results of representative investigation of Albanian zadrugas in Kosovo and Metohia.

Identification of heavy metal mercury contamination in citarum hulu river west javaThe Citarum Hulu river has undergone degradation in its water quality to a critical condition, in which 12 km or 47.1% of the river being heavily polluted by wastewater originating from industrial, domestic, and agricultural activities. This research was aimed at determining the mercury (Hg) metal content of Citarum Hulu river, and to evaluate the impacts that are likely to occur. Research results obtained in the Citarum Hulu area indicated an Hg heavy metal content of 0.0032 mg/L in Citarum Wangisagara, 0.0042 mg/L in Citarum Sapan, 0.0002 mg/L in Citarum Dayeuhkolot, 0.008 mg/L in Citarum Nanjung, and 0.0043 mg/L in Citarum Tanjungpura tributaries. These are all still below the standard limit of 0.01 mg/L. However, two tributaries indicated higher than standard Hg content, namely 0.0228 mg/L in Citepus Cisirung and 0.0183 mg/L in Cimahi Leuwigajah tributaries. Results from this research were expected to provide information on the actual water condition, considering the key role of Citarum Hulu river as the main source of water supply for three major dams in West Java, namely Saguling, Cirata, Jatiluhur dams. These dams are utilized by the local population for floating net fishery and for the irrigation of local agricultural farms.Kata kunci : Citarum river, mercury, pH, dissolved oxygen AbstrakSungai Citarum Hulu telah mengalami degradasi kualitas sampai kondisi kritis, sepanjang 12 km atau 47,1% telah tercemar berat oleh air  limbah yang berasal dari aktivitas industri, domestik, dan pertanian.

Telah terjadi perubahan mata pencaharian masyarakat di sepanjang pantai selatan Kabupaten Gunungkidul. Semula, sebagian besar bermata pencaharian sebagai petani, namun sejak tahun 1980-an mulai beralih profesi sebagai nelayan. Perubahan pekerjaan tersebut terjadi sejak masyarakat mendapat pelatihan nelayan di Tempat Pelelangan Ikan (TPI) Baron. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui transformasi pekerjaan dari petani menjadi nelayan, dan peran  perikanan tangkap laut sebagai sumber mata pencaharian utama. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Februari sampai dengan Mei 2014, di TPI Ngrenehan, Desa Kanigoro, Kecamatan Saptosari, Kabupaten Gunungkidul. Responden terdiri dari nelayan, Anak Buah Kapal (ABK), pedagang, penyedia bahan bakar minyak (BBM) dan jasa modal usaha (juragan). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pekerjaan nelayan dilokasi penelitian saat ini memberikan kontribusi utama sebagai sumber pendapatan keluarga. Namun demikian nelayan tidak meninggalkan kegiatan pertanian. Kegiatan pertanian masih tetap dilakukan oleh nelayan dengan memanfaatkan waktu luang setelah bekerja jadi nelayan dan pada saat cuaca buruk. Kegiatan peternakan, dijadikan sebagai sumber tabungan yang akan digunakan untuk biaya pendidikan atau sebagai tabungan untuk sumber permodalan. Pendapatan dari sektor peternakan digunakan untuk investasi baru yaitu memperbaiki/membeli perahu, membeli mesin dan alat tangkap. Title: Transformation livelihood: From Farmers To Fishermen On The Southern Coast, Gunungkidul RegencyHave been changes in the livelihoods of communities along the southern coast of Gunungkidul Regency.
