Artikel ini bermaksud memberikan kontribusi bagi pemahaman lebih baik soal desa adat di Indonesia. Untuk itu, artikel ini membahas bagaimana proses munculnya desa adat dengan fokus kajian pada masyarakat Sendi di Kabupaten Mojokerto dan bagaimana upaya mereka untuk mendapatkan pengakuan desa mereka sebagai desa adat. Ia berargumen bahwa dalam perspektif sosiologis masyarakat Sendi membangun kesadaran kolektif berdasarkan memori kolektif mereka di masa lalu yang mewujud dalam gerakan sosial untuk memperoleh pengakuan formal desa adat bagi wilayah yang mereka tinggali. Masyarakat keturunan asli eks ‘Desa Adat Sendi’ di masa lalu yang tersebar di beberapa dusun di sekitar Sendi memiliki kesadaran kolektif untuk menghidupkan kembali Sendi sebagai desa adat karena ingin menjaga tanah peninggalan leluhurnya. Pada gilirannya, kesadaran kolektif ini membentuk perilaku kolektif dari masyarakat Sendi untuk berjuang menghidupkan kembali adat-adat masyarakat Sendi dengan mendirikan organisasi gerakan sosial yang dinamakan Forum Perjuangan Rakyat (FPR).  Upaya-upaya masyarakat Sendi melalui Forum Perjuangan Rakyat untuk memperoleh pengakuan desa adat sebenarnya memperoleh justifikasi secara peraturan negara, yakni hak untuk memperoleh pengelolaan sendiri dalam sistem otonomi daerah, dan absah karena mereka sudah menjalankan kehidupan sebagai masyarakat hukum adat sebagai kesatuan masyarakat hukum yang memiliki batas wilayah, menjalankan kepentingan masyarakat setempat berdasarkan prakarsa masyarakat, hak asal-usul, dan hak tradisional yang diakui oleh peraturan  negara. This article aims to contribute to the studies of customary villages in Indonesia. To do so, it describes the emergence of customary villages with a special focus on Sendi community in Mojokerto Regency and how the community members attempt to get their village officially recognized as a “customary village” from the local government. This article argues that from the sociological perspective Sendi community established a collective awareness based on their collective memory of their past, which brought them to found a social movement to have their village recognized as a customary village. This collective awareness made them develop a collective action to revive their customary law and ways of life by establishing Forum Perjuangan Rakyat (People’s Struggle Forum). These efforts of Sendi community to reach their goal are justified by two reasons: Indonesian laws of regional autonomy and the fact that the Sendi community has lived their daily lives as a customary law community, which is recognized and protected by the laws and constitutes a base for a customary village establishment.

The implementation of todays forest management that based on formal-scientific knowledge and technical knowledge seems to fail to protect the forest from deforestation and the environmental damage. Decolonialisation of western knowledge could give an opportunity to identify and find the knowledge and practices of indigenous people in sustainable forest management. Forest management based on the indigenous knowledge and practices is believed easy to be accepted by the indigenous community due to the knowledge and practice is known and ‘lived’ by them. The Atoni Pah Meto from West Timor has their own customary law in forest management that is knows as Bunuk. In the installation of Bunuk, there is a concencus among the community members to protect and preserve the forest through the vow to the supreme one, the ruler of the earth and the ancestors, thus, bunuk is becoming a le’u (sacred). Thus, the Atoni Meto will not break the bunuk due to the secredness. Adapting the bunuk to the modern forest management in the Atoni Meto areas could be one of the best options in protecting and preserving the forest.

In this paper, we utilize the theory of translanguaging to make sense of the biliterate activities of young emergent bilinguals in a before-school program for Latinx students at an elementary school. Our findings show that even early writers are able to draw from their full linguistic repertoire, utilizing orthographic and syntactic resources consciously, and continue to do so with increasing complexity as they get older and gain greater competence. The children in our study show how emergent bilinguals exhibit exceptionally sophisticated considerations of audience as they write across linguistically and culturally-diverse communities, navigating these in their writing, as they do in their daily lives. Opportunities for students to demonstrate and develop these skills are critical, especially in monolingual settings.

In this article, I consider how our materialist inquiry might enact a sense of justice and virtue in these fascist times. I do so through the following overarching claim: addressing fascism requires a simultaneous challenge to the seductive entanglements of liberalism, humanism, and capitalism, a dense skein of ethical, ontological, epistemological, and material formations we order to conventionally live our lives. To engage such an argument, I first examine fascism as a governing force within our daily lives that works to shape the material contexts we encounter each and every day. To productively engage with the ubiquity of fascist ways of living, I examine philosophical inquiry practices that extend from a decidedly materialist orientation.

Violent Images

This article examines the posting of photographs on two Facebook groups created by survivors of the 1976 fall of the Tal al-Zaʾtar refugee camp and their descendants. What happens to photographs as they circulate through these particular social media groups, and what relations do people (including photographed subjects who appear in images of atrocity and trauma) create with such images as they circulate in new ways? How are they mobilized through social media to create and sustain collective memory? I argue that by addressing the yearning to discover, document and sustain networks of affiliation and association on one hand and a shared geography, lost in 1976 and virtually reconstructed through members’ activities on the sites on the other, group members appeal in complex ways to both indexical and iconic qualities of photographs, thereby allowing for the creative engagement with a collective past for the needs of community members in the present.

Asset Based Community Development

Natural hazards disrupt the daily lives of people and communities. Consequently, social workers, like any other stakeholders, deal with community predicaments arising from the effects of natural hazards. The social relief distress (SRD) programme of government utilises needs-based, top-down government-driven interventions in communities affected by natural hazards, focused on what communities lack, as opposed to what communities have. This research study involved a community that experienced natural hazards, such as flooding, hail, lightning and windstorms, which destroyed property and livelihoods during the period 2014–2015. Eight experts and 12 affected community members participated in a qualitative participatory action research analysis study between 2016 and 2017. Guided by the asset-based community development (ABCD) approach, the affected community participated in a collaborative manner in the analysis of the consequences of natural hazards within the community. Data were collected through semi-structured individual interviews and focus group discussions, and analysed thematically. The findings confirmed the traumatic effects of natural hazards, such as loss of property, crops and livestock, physical injuries and even death. The main finding established that natural hazards should be managed in a collaborative way between formal experts of natural hazards and community members through ABCD principles and methods in building resilient communities.

If the Bolívar novel embodies the collective memory of a region in a manner spare yet ingenious, the novelist’s other major late work tends toward personal memory. In Of Love and Other Demons, García Márquez comes as close to magical realism as in any work since the short stories and One Hundred Years of Solitude and reaffirms the multiracial and Caribbean character of the author’s own definition of Spanish America. In News of a Kidnapping, García Márquez ventures onto the territory of drug cartels and violence, which became the preoccupation of the next generation of Colombian writers, relating this material from the deadpan, appalled stance that is as characteristic of his viewpoint as the mesmeric incantations so commonly associated with him. In Memories of My Melancholy Whores, a late in life moral transformation redeems a lifetime of iniquity and testifies to the strangeness of the new territory of extreme old age, in a sense as unexplored a country as Macondo once was. In Living to Tell the Tale, García Márquez reflects upon the first half of his own life. Unlike in the case of Bolívar, García Márquez did not get to tell the ending of the story, leaving later writers and readers to do so in their own minds, as the great master had done for the General.

Criminal activities have always been a part of human society, and even today, in a world of extremely advanced surveillance and policing capabilities, many different kinds of crimes are still committed in almost every social environment. However, since those who commit crimes are not representative of the majority of their community, members of these communities tend to wish to report crime when they see it; however, they are often reluctant to do so for fear of their own safety should the people they report identify them. Thus, a great deal of crime goes unreported, and investigations fail to gain key evidence from witnesses, which serves only to foster an environment in which criminal activity is more likely to occur. In order to address this problem, this paper proposes an online illegal event reporting scheme based on cloud technology, which combines digital certificates, symmetric keys, asymmetric keys, and digital signatures. The proposed scheme can process illegal activity reports from the reporting event to the issuing of a reward. The scheme not only ensures informers’ safety, anonymity and non-repudiation, but also prevents cases and reports being erased, and ensures data integrity. Furthermore, the proposed scheme is designed to be robust against abusive use, and is able to preclude false reports. Therefore, it provides a convenient and secure platform for reporting and fighting crime.

“Social Movement Theory” as a Baseline Legitimizing Narrative: Corporate Exploitation, Anti-Hegemonic Opposition and the Contested Academy

Intellectual Activism

Scholars and administrators created “Social Movement Theory” (SMT) and associated institutions in order to establish a field of “contested politics” buttressed by “scholarly synthesis.” In this article, I place SMT as an object of study itself within the contested space of the corporate academy. SMT is a baseline legitimizing narrative that the domesticated academy produces and that corporate entities then use as preemptive inoculation against anti-hegemonic opposition by geographically separating governmentalities of often brutal and arbitrary material exploitation from depoliticized, dehistoricized and scientistic spectacles of consumerist legitimization. I summarize key ways that administrators govern the corporate academy and remove historical and social specificity, followed by analysis of exemplary cases demonstrating how SMT is placed within “peer-reviewed” scholarship. In contrast to SMT's over-riding goal of “synthesis,” I argue that effective social movement scholarship is contingent, situated and explicitly engaged with power (willing to “reveal a stand”), including difficult questions about who exercises power, how, and especially under what guises of corporate authority. Done well, such intellectual-activism must be conducted independent of current corporate academic strictures, and indeed will likely involve direct anti-hegemonic challenges to the corporate academy. Intellectual-activists that choose to do so can face significant negative impacts ranging from “double-shift” marginalization through loss of academic privileges, total career destruction, banishment from the academic canon and even physical endangerment. Therefore, effective transformation of social movement scholarship requires transformation of the contested academy, both projects very difficult for embedded academics absent external pressure from intellectual-activists.

Set Up

IntroductionIn 2014 St Joseph’s Hospice set up compassionate neighbours (CN) to address social isolation for those experiencing a chronic or terminal illness. Built on foundations of community development principles the neighbours provide emotional and social support to community members. With significant funding from Nesta we are upscaling the project with seven other hospices.AimOur aim is to build a wider network of CN who are supporting people in their local communities; we will test and learn how the project can be replicated in other areas. Our ultimate aim is to create a social movement establishing a network of CNs across the country.MethodWe are training and mentoring other hospice adopters to replicate the project in their own areas whilst testing which ingredients are key to the success of the project. Our review of the programme including formal evaluation will form the basis for a potential national roll out across the country.ResultsReview of our progress including a recent conference for CN feedback from hospice CEOs and project leads describes ongoing interest in the CN programme. There is additional interest from other hospices and other organisations outside of the Nesta programme. That said challenges exist around local implementation of a model shaped elsewhere translation of particular principles underpinning the CN programme and concerns around long-term sustainability and ownership of the network.ConclusionFurther thought is required about how to build the social movement and whether this effort should sit within the hospice sector or within a community development context in the future.
