Having been enacted since 2014, the Act No. 6/2014 has given a spirit and a huge authority to the villages in developing their potential resources. Unfortunately, those special authorities have not been fcollowed by the leadership’s capacity of the village’s head. This paper attempts to analyze the rise of local actors so-called local strongmen at the village level. This study uses Sidel (1999) perspective on how to seek local strongmen in local area at Sudimoro Village, Megaluh District in Jombang Regency. In case, the head of Sudimoro village produces a despotic action by unloading and dredging the historical land where there was a petilasan from King of Majapahit, well-known as Raja Brawijaya 1. Then, this action eventually triggered a conflict in the middle of its society and has been solved after the hall of cultural heritage of the government of Jombang Regency has intervened. This paper concluded that the high of authority and power would potentially rise the new local strongmen at the village level. Therefore, the existence of the principle of recognition and subsidiarity owned by the village is only used by a few local elites for their interests without any accountability and accessibility for the society.

In India, the 73rd constitutional amendment of 1992 decentralises agriculture, irrigation, health, education along with 23 other items to the Panchayats, the village level self-government body. It is envisaged that the three-tier Panchayat system at the District, Block and the Village level would coordinate with different ‘line departments’ of the government for planning various schemes and their implementation. In West Bengal, a state in eastern India, where the Panchayats were revitalised before the constitutional amendment, the initial years were marked by strong coordination between the Panchayats and other departments, especially land and agriculture, making West Bengal a ‘model’ case for the Panchayats. However, where service delivery through the Panchayats has been criticised in recent years, the disjuncture between Panchayats and the line departments is a cause for alarm. In this paper, we search for the causes behind the low level of coordination between government departments and the Panchayat at each tier. We analyse the complex process of organisational coordination that characterises decentralisation, and show how decision making in local governments is nested within various levels of hierarchy. The study focuses on the formal structures of coordination and control with regard to decision-making between the Panchayats and the line departments. We show how these processes work out in practice. These involve lack of role definition, problems of accountability, and politics over access to resources and relations of power within, as well as outside, the Panchayat.

Agricultural infrastructure is a typical public good, and it plays an important role in rural development. The “participation of beneficiary groups (PBG)” system is encouraged by government to supply village level public goods in China. Based on micro survey data from the village level in Jiangsu Province, this study analyzes the status of agricultural infrastructure construction and the promotion of PBG model and quantitatively analyzes the impact of different factors using an econometric model. The results found that the PBG model of agricultural infrastructure construction only accounted for 22.8% of projects, and the bottleneck was the challenge in raising funds at the village level; the total number of projects and the number of projects in the PBG model significantly increased with collective irrigation, and the farmland lease was found to hinder the promotion of the PBG model. The government should take measures to enhance farmers’ awareness of social trust, continuously improve the governance capacity of the village collectives, improve the role of village self-governance and social forces in agricultural infrastructure construction, and actively guide farmers and private enterprises to participate in agricultural infrastructure construction so that farmers can obtain more practical benefits.

This research aims to review the implementation of the Village Cash Direct Assistance policy through village head regulations in poverty reduction since the Covid-19 pandemic in Keresek Village of Cibatu Subdistrict, Garut Regency. The Village Cash Direct Assistance (BLT DD) is one of the government's initiatives in providing subsidies to Indonesians in need. Assistance is offered to address the problems caused by the prolonged Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia and worldwide. The Covid-19 pandemic does not only interfere with health that results in death. Pandemics force various activities to be stopped so that the impact is widespread, increasing the number of unemployment, hunger, poverty, etc. For this reason, the government provides funds to the community to suppress the increasing problem.  Implementation of village-level policies using village head regulations is still rare. This research used  qualitative methods using Edward III's policy theory of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Data sources were obtained through interviews and documentation—data analysis by presenting data, reducing data, and withdrawing conclusions. The research result shows that the implementation of Village Cash Direct Assistance in Keresek Village based on Edward III's theory has been implemented judging from the absence of complaints ranging from the data collection process to distribution to recipients under Operational Standard Procedure (OSP).  This research will inform the implementation of policies at the village level made by the village government.   Keywords: Village Fund, Policy, Policy Implementation.

This chapter considers the village protests against land acquisition as performances. It uses the idea of performance, built on concepts of a front stage and a backstage, to contrast the spectacular with the mundane. It highlights the rhetorical strategies that landholding villagers use to represent themselves and rural life to the urban media, urban activists, and the anthropologist using the trope of the peasant living a harmonious rural life. These gendered self-images derive from leftist politics and its extolling of rural life and the peasantry as articulated through such statements as “Land is like mother; it cannot be bought and sold.” This chapter shows how the protest tactics and images challenged the state but also exacerbated conflicts among villagers and prevented them from entering into dialogue with the government regarding compensation and rehabilitation.

Background: A First step towards community involvement is Participation. The government of India under its flagship program, the National Health Mission, advocates and actively encourages community participation and has setup Village Health Nutrition and Sanitation Committees (VHNSCs) at village level. Aim & Objective: The objective of this paper is to examine “The Level of Community Participation in the Village Health Sanitation committees” in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Methods and Material: A cross-sectional mix method study was undertaken in 3 districts, covering 15 villages, in Uttar Pradesh between August to October 2019. The quantitative component included a pre-tested semi structured questionnaire. Further, Focused group discussion (FGDs) and key informant in-depth interview were undertaken for more information. Informed consent was collected from all the participants. The quantitative data was analyzed using SPSS 21.0 while the qualitative data was analyzed manually, based on themes. Results: The average size of the household was 5, 65% respondents were educated, 88% were Hindus, 47% were from other backward class and 50% had below poverty line cards. In the year 2019, 7% of the respondents participated in the Gram Sabha and 5% in village health nutrition and sanitation committee meetings. Statistically significant variations were noticed where less than 20% of the schedule castes and schedule tribes had lower participation than other castes in any of the village level committees. Lack of time was one the key reasons cited for non-participation. Conclusions: To ensure adequate participation from all castes it is important to schedule meetings at times convenient may encourage more community participation.
