The success of village development planning accompanied by community empowerment will improve the economy of the community in the region, which in turn can reduce economic inequality. Rural development is inseparable from the role of village communities as one of social capital. Dasa Wisma and Setu Legi Association is a place for social capital and community empowerment to improve the group's economy. However, as the economic drivers of the Brajan hamlet community in Potorono Village, the group experienced problems about the lack of orderliness of members because there were no written regulations and the absence of financial reports as a measurement of group assets. So that assistance to improve administration as a group's financial accountability and SOP for lending is absolutely necessary. The results of community service activities indicate that with the formulation of SOPs, it is expected that the lending mechanism will be obeyed by members and the borrower will be orderly in installments, as well as by preparing the group's financial statements, the assets owned can be identified. So that the group's financial development can be seen and allocated for more productive needs.

If we want to convert our rural population into knowledge driven, progressive, self sufficient, self reliant, sustainable society, the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s) cannot be ignored. Timely availability information is considered as most important factor in Indian agriculture. At present ICT is the technology of this millennium. Transferring the developed technology to all end users is time-consuming and tiresome task and is often not completed due to paucity of resources and lack of manpower. In India, agriculture and rural development has gained significantly from ICT due to its widespread extension and adoption. In this era of internet, ICT is committed to provide real, timely accurate authentic information to the farmers and rural peoples.

Chapter 10 provides a summary of the argument of the book. It elaborates some of the benefits of Literalism, such as less conceptual confusion and an expanded range of entities for research that might illuminate human cognition. It motivates distinguishing the questions of whether something has a cognitive capacity from whether it is intuitively like us. It provides a conceptual foundation for the social sciences appropriate for the increasing role of modeling in these sciences. It also promotes convergence in terms of the roles of internal and external factors in explaining both human and nonhuman behavior. Finally, it sketches some of the areas of new research that it supports, including group cognition and artificial intelligence.

This chapter proposes a framework for approaching the theological significance of rhythm through phenomenology, prosody, and the social sciences. In accordance with the general categories of phenomenology established by Merleau-Ponty and the “rhythmanalysis” of Henri Lefebvre, the chapter investigates two experiences of rhythm: approaches to analysing the human encounter with rhythm in the reading of poetry and the role of rhythm in social interactions introduced through commonalities between rhythm in conversation and in jazz performance. These explorations establish two features of rhythm that are of analytical importance for the chapters that follow: (1) the synchronic and the diachronic as two necessary but distinct theoretical perspectives on rhythm, each of which emphasizes different features of rhythm and (2) the importance of interruption for understanding rhythm’s significance.
