Ten years have passed and there has been no result of an empowerment program for remote indigenous Akit tribal communities in Riau. The Akit tribe is an ancient native Malay tribe (Proto Melayu) in Riau Province. These indigenous people are still less fortunate in terms of health and social. This study investigates the root causes of health inequalities in the Akit community to get a complete picture of the problem. By using a qualitative approach and case study methods, this research is conducted by means of in-depth interviews, observation, and literature study. The results of the study show that the root cause of failed empowerment is a lack of synergy between government agencies, in which each agency had its own program, thus it poses disadvantages to the society where there are still illiterate sufferers, people who are heavily dependent on the underdeveloped environment that make them ill, and cultural institutions that are not feasible and binding to the social system that prevents people from developing.

The Jakarta Bay reclamation policy is an issue that is currently a public debate. This debate is strengthened by environmental issues, the marginalization of certain groups, the regulation of authority and also corruption in the Jakarta Bay Reclamation project. Some central and provincial government institutions take different stances on the issue. The first objective of this research is to analyse environmental policy in reclamation of Jakarta Bay with the approach of political ecology. This research uses a qualitative approach. The data were obtained from in-depth interviews with stakeholders involved in the policy making of the Jakarta Bay reclamation environment and the literature study. This study concludes that the Jakarta Bay reclamation policy creates a conflict between the central and provincial governments. This is due to the overlapping regulation of Jakarta Bay reclamation authority as well as differences in attitude and interests among stakeholders. In the approach of political ecology, the Jakarta Bay reclamation policy has failed to accommodate the three interests, are social, economic and environmental interests. The conflicts that occur also cause an omission that not only harms the economy, but worsens the social and economic impact.

Skripsi ini berupaya menyajikan hasil penelitian yang merefleksikan kegiatan Pemantauan Kebijakan Penataan Pedagang Kaki Lima di Kecamatan Garut Kota oleh Tim Penataan dan Pemberdayaan Pedagang Kaki Lima Kabupaten Garut. Latar belakang dari penelitian ini ialah tercetusnya kebijakan Penataan Pedagang Kaki Lima yang diprakarsai pada era kepemimpinan Rudy Gunawan selaku Bupati Garut Periode 2014 – 2019, sebagai upaya dalam menata kembali pusat perkotaan dan menertibkan para Pedagang Kaki Lima yang berjualan di sekitar pusat kota, hingga dalam praktiknya ditemukan suatu kendala dari pelaksanaan kebijakan tersebut yang disebabkan karena tidak efektifnya kegiatan pemantauan (monitoring) kebijakan. Teori yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini berasal dari William N. Dunn (1999), beliau mengemukakan bahwa Pemantauan setidaknya memainkan empat fungsi yaitu Eksplanasi, Akuntansi, Pemeriksaan, dan Kepatuhan. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif dan pendekatan kualitatif. Data diperoleh dengan menggunakan studi kepustakaan dan studi lapangan berupa observasi non- partisipan, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi. Teknik triangulasi sumber dijadikan sebagai pemeriksaan keabsahan data dalam penelitian ini, kemudian data-data tersebut direduksi, disajikan, dan ditarik simpulan. Berdasarkan penelitian Penulis, nyatanya kegiatan pemantauan kebijakan tidak dapat dipandang sebelah mata, dikarenakan pemantauan kebijakan memiliki peran yang vital dalam menilai dan mengawal sejauh mana kebijakan yang sedang dilaksanakan dapat berjalan sesuai dengan koridor tujuan dan sasaran kebijakan tersebut, sehingga Pemantauan Kebijakan tidak dapat hanya dimaknai secara harfiah saja, perlu dilakukan elaborasi yang mendalam, seperti pada aspek Kepatuhan, Pemeriksaan, Akuntansi, dan/ atau Eksplanasi, karena hasil dari pemantauan kebijakan dapat dijadikan acuan untuk melakukan upaya koreksi/ modifikasi kebijakan.

Re-thinking dominant epistemological assumptions of the urban in the global South implies recognising the role of grassroots networks in challenging epistemic injustices through the co-production of multiple saberes and haceres for more just and inclusive cities. This paper examines the pedagogies of such networks by focusing on the experiences nurtured within Habitat International Coalition in Latin America (HIC-AL), identified as a ‘School of Grassroots Urbanism’ (Escuela de Urbanismo Popular). Although HIC-AL follows foremost activist rather than educational objectives, members of HIC-AL identify and value their practices as a ‘School’, whose diverse pedagogic logics and epistemological arguments are examined in this paper. The analysis builds upon a series of in-depth interviews, document reviews and participant observation with HIC-AL member organisations and allied grassroots networks. The discussion explores how the values and principles emanating from a long history of popular education and popular urbanism in the region are articulated through situated pedagogies of resistance and transformation, which in turn enable generative learning from and for the social production of habitat.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to theorize and empirically investigate the formation of consumer’s consumption ritual experiences and discourses associated with Feast of Sacrifice. Design/methodology/approach The authors have approached the data from assemblage theory perspective. By use of ethnographic participant observation and in-depth interviews, seven themes are uncovered and discussed: meaning of Qurban, preparation of the ritual, Qurban choice, meat, Qurban ritual, marketplace and framing of discourses. Findings This study provides a theoretical development in which it depicts that assemblage theory can be used in the context of religious rituals such as the Feast of Sacrifice. This suggests that parts forming the social phenomena include different meanings and functions in different assemblages to the ritual, which has a structure with a particular process, roles and content scenario. This implies that even the most structured social phenomena as religious rituals can be accepted as social assemblage where every individual experiences his/her own ritual with the parts that have ever-changing material and expressive roles. Originality/value This study will contribute to the literature on religious rituals and practices through viewing ritual as an assemblage including material and expressive features as well as human and non-human actors. Besides, this study aims to find out whether there is a constant consumer and the concept of ritual by focusing on buying experiences of consumer in Feast of Sacrifice in Turkey.

Abstract Water is a multidimensional element for the indigenous communities of the Andean highlands. The Kichwa community Fakcha Llakta, of Otavalo, Ecuador has a close relationship with the existing water bodies in their territory. However, traditional knowledge associated with these resources is fading, giving way to new forms of use. The purpose of this research is to reveal the meanings of water for this indigenous community, in order to propose guidelines for sustainable resource management. It is an ethnographic study with a qualitative approach. The information was collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation by the research team, and the gathering of cultural objects. The findings were organized and sub-grouped according to four recurring elements: vital and sacred; diversity of use and value; a threatened natural resource; and the sustainability of water from the ancestral perspective.

The research method approach uses a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected by in-depth interviews with the head of the student class.

The results showed that students could not establish social relations between students and did not participate in campus social organizations. Another finding, the Covid-19 outbreak has an impact on student morals because online meetings are more difficult to foster student morals because teachers do not meet students.
