Organisational Strategy

In this paper we critique grounded theory’s ability to fulfil its aim of offering a practical vehicle for prediction, change, and control as stipulated in grounded theory’s original formulation by Glaser and Strauss, and later developed by Strauss. We do this through a case study approach, whereby we develop a grounded theory of leisure and cultural strategy within a local authority, and critically reflect on the process of grounded theorisation, together with its implications for generating practical tools in that most practical of academic fields; organisational strategy. We demonstrate that despite generating good grounded theory on leisure and cultural strategy, here termed “navigational translation,” that offers sociological insight, its claim to offer practical tools is inappropriate to the strategy field.

ABSTRAK  Salah satu permasalahan yang dihadapi di kawasan kilang pengolahan minyak Balikpapan adalah masalah limpasan banjir dari kawasan pemukiman penduduk dan dari lingkungan komplek perumahan pekerja kedalam area kilang. Limpasan banjir menggenangi instalasi perpipaan dan peralatan operasi kilang yang dapat mengganggu operasi kilang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran faktor dan penyebab masalah limpasan banjir di kilang serta metode perbaikannya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian aplikasi dengan pendekatan studi kasus penanganan masalah limpasan banjir kilang. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa faktor dan penyebab limpasan banjir kilang Balikpapan adalah faktor alat, yakni dimensi dan konfigurasi saluran drainase yang tidak sesuai serta masih tergabungnya saluran pembuangan air dari luar kilang dengan saluran air dalam kilang.  Metode perbaikan yang dilakukan adalah dengan melakukan pemisahan saluran air dari luar kilang dibuat terpisah dengan saluran air buangan dari dalam kilang dan memodifikasi saluran eksisting dengan dimensi dan konfigurasi saluran yang sesuai. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa metode perbaikan dengan pemisahan saluran dari luar kilang dan dari dalam kilang terbukti efektif dan cocok digunakan untuk mencegah dan mengendalikan limpasan banjir di area kilang utara.  Hasil penelitian ini merekomendasikan bahwa keberhasilan metode penanganan permasalahan ini dapat direplikasi untuk mengatasi permasalahan sejenis. Kata kunci : Limpasan banjir, modifikasi, re-route saluran dainase ABSTRACT One of the problems in the Balikpapan oil refinery area is flood runoff from residential areas and from the neighborhoods of workers' housing complexes to the refinery area. Flood runoff inundates pipeline installations and refinery operating equipment which can disrupt refinery operations. This study aims to provide an overview of the factors and causes of flood runoff problems in refineries and their improvement methods. This study uses an application research method with a case study approach to handling refinery runoff problems. The results showed that the factors and causes of the Pertamina Balikpapan refinery flood runoff were tool factors, namely the dimensions and configuration of inappropriate drainage channels and the incorporation of water drains from outside the refinery with drains for refineries. The method of repair that is done is by separating the drains from outside the refinery to be made separate from the sewerage from inside the refinery and modifying the existing channel with the appropriate dimensions and channel configurations. The results showed that the method of repair with the separation of channels from outside the refinery and from the refinery proved to be effective and suitable to be used to prevent and control flood runoff in the northern refinery area. The results of this study recommend that the success of this problem handling method can be replicated to overcome similar problems.Keywords: Flood runoff, modification, re-routing of dainase channels

Migration Research

An ethnographic case study approach to understanding women’s actions and reactions to husbands’ emigration—or potential emigration—offers a distinct set of challenges to a U.S.-based researcher.  International migration research in a foreign context likely offers challenges in language, culture, lifestyle, as well as potential gender norm impediments. A mixed methods approach contributed to successfully overcoming barriers through an array of research methods, strategies, and tactics, as well as practicing flexibility in data gathering methods. Even this researcher’s influence on the research was minimized and alleviated, to a degree, through ascertaining common ground with many of the women. Research with the women of San Juan Guelavía, Oaxaca, Mexico offered numerous and constant challenges, each overcome with ensuing rewards.
