ABSTRAK. Ruang publik kota dibutuhkan warga kota  untuk berkumpul  tanpa perbedaan. Pada kota lama bekas kerajaan di Jawa seperti Yogyakarta,tata ruang kotanya mengikuti makna filosofi yang dipercaya pada masanya, dan memiliki alun-alun yang berkembang menjadi ruang publik. Meskipun pengertian ruang publik di sini berbeda dengan ruang publik di Eropa, namun sebagai tempat berkumpul cukup menarik. Alun-alun Selatan Kraton Yogyakarta saat ini begitu hidup berkembang sebagai ruang publik terutama setiap malam dengan berbagai kegiatan menarik. Perubahan pemaknaan terjadi seiring perkembangan jaman. Berangkat dari anggapan awal saya tentang perubahan fungsi dan makna alun-alun, di lapangan saya memperoleh temuan bahwa kerelaan pihak kraton memberikan halamannnya untuk rakyat adalah faktor utama terbentuknya ruang publik di alun-alun. Di lapangan saya juga menemukan berbagai makna yang bisa dibaca dari tanda, yang bisa dimaknai sebagai semiotik alun-alun. Penelitian saya memiliki dua arah, kajian sejarah sebagai tolok ukur perkembangan fungsi dan makna, serta proses lapangan menekankan pada eksplorasi aktor-aktor yang terlibat di alun-alun selatan, dengan mengacu Actor Network Theoryserta Semiotik untuk memahami terbentuknya  makna bagi pemilik dan pengguna, yang bisa berubah pada kurun waktu yang berbeda. Kata Kunci: alun-alun, ruang publik, makna, semiotik ABSTRACT.  Public space needed to gather citizens without distinction. In the old town of the former kingdom in Java such as Yogyakarta, the city follows the spatial meaning of the philosophy that believed in his time, and had the square developed into a public space. Although the notions of public space here is different from the public space in Europe, but as a gathering place quite interesting. South Alun-Alun Kraton Yogyakarta today so thrive as a public space, especially every night with a variety of interesting activities. Changes of meaning occurs over the development period. Departing from my initial assumptions about changes in the function and meaning of the square, on the ground I gained the finding that the willingness of the parties the court gives halamannnya for the people is a major factor in the formation of a public space of the square. On the field, I also found a variety of meanings that can be read from the signs, which could be interpreted as a semiotic alun-alun My research has two directions, the study of history as a benchmark the development of the function and meaning, as well as the pitch emphasis on exploration of the actors involved in the  south Alun-Alun, with reference Actor Network Theory and Semiotics to understand the formation of meaning for owners and users, which may change at different times.  Keywords: square, public space, , meaning, semiotic

Using actor-network theory, this essay argues that the Norwich Grocers’ Play creates a dramatic network among the city of Norwich, the actors of the play, and the marginal audience members from Norwich and its surrounding countryside when read in light of the Norwich Corporation assembly minute of 1527 and the history of social unrest culminating in Kett’s Rebellion of 1549. The staging, costuming, and language of the play all function to ally the audience with the salvation history presented in the play and, in so doing, ensure the continued peace and prosperity of Norwich in the later 1560s despite challenges that could have led to unrest mirroring that experienced in the 1540s.

This chapter examines how multiple, often competing, identities of the street artist Banksy are constructed through a variety of media. It uses actor network theory and activity theory to trace and analyze the contexts, or networks, wherein Bansky’s identity is constructed. Banksy’s identity is of particular interest because he is an anonymous figure, and he actively abstains from social media. This examination of how he is constructed online sheds light on the agency that individuals have in constructing their identity in digital spaces. The insight from this investigation should be of great relevance for all professionals as they consider the non-professional writing they do, or chose not to do, beyond their office walls, within the public domain.

The public administration is in a state of change and is confronted with ever new challenges. To cope with that it seems appropriate to incorporate new theories into the field of administrative science. Accordingly, two theory offers from the social sciences are used, the Actor-Network-Theory as well as the Sociology of Conventions, and their utility and limits for public administration theory are examined. The aim is to inaugurate a pragmatic theoretical enrichment for the administration and to show how application-oriented science of public administration can benefit from such a theoretical offer.

Abstract Culinary facilities are now experiencing rapid development and are increasingly popular among the public, especially teenagers in Jakarta or tourists who deliberately want to taste Indonesian culinary. This can occur due to changes in the lifestyle of the people of Jakarta in fulfilling food consumption. The people of Jakarta consume food not only to meet their basic needs, but also to find satisfaction with taste, service, atmosphere and scenery and it can be made as a hangout place with friends, colleagues, etc. With the changing patterns or trends of this society, it has prompted many entrepreneurs to build many culinary buildings in new locations. Going down the street in Jakarta to find a culinary place, is definitely very fun. Once fanatical food hunters, they are willing to take the time to hunt for their favorite dishes. Amazingly, this hunting continues to grow so that it often creates new communities. The fact that culinary activities will never die has even become a new hobby and new lifestyle for the people of Jakarta. As with the complexity of the city of Jakarta, the culinary in Jakarta is very varied. Almost all food both from within and outside the country can be found in Jakarta, one of which is in the area of Jalan Sabang which is already famous for its culinary hawker centers that can be enjoyed by any group of people, both upper, middle and lower class. It could be said, Jalan Sabang is a culinary facility for public spaces, especially for the Central Jakarta area

In the current socio-economic context, and particularly in the cities of southern Europe,one of the essential objectives of urban planning is the production of a public space as acollective good that qualifies, shapes and makes sense of urban functions. In thecomposition of "the public" the role of collective urban facilities is key. A tour of certainbases that could help redefine the understanding of public urban facilities is proposed. Theaims are to make the opportunities profitable and the instruments for its correct urbaninsertion flexible, to rescue benefits from the private sphere and to reactivate thegeography and the harmonic readings that the landscape inherited. They are all argumentsthat are exposed and fed by the project and planning experiences in the city of Granada.They offer a readjustment of the meaning of the project and introduce the possibility ofmore useful urban facilities.

Few theories have left their mark on urban studies to the extent that Actor-Network Theory (ANT) has in the last few decades. Its background in Science and Technology Studies (STS), its critique of the explanatory value of such abstractions as ‘class’ and ‘society’ and its efforts to transcend society/nature and local/global binarisms inevitably challenged conventional views on cities, urbanization and urban phenomena. Economic and Marxist approaches to the city in particular have been challenged, at least to the extent that they invoke the explanatory force of the economy or capitalism as a global social system and, thus, fall back upon the binarisms under attack from ANT. The network approach questioned architectonic explanatory models (substructure vs. superstructure) and deepened our understanding of actors and agency (both emerging from networks of humans and non-humans). However, ANT has always been subject to criticism too.

In 2004, the Government of Jamaica and the Confederation of Trade Unions signed a social partnership agreement or Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which maintained the size of the public sector and wage expenditure, in exchange for no redundancies. The implementation of the Agreement unearthed unanticipated implications for the practice of power within the partnership. The ontology of Actor Network Theory, conceptualizes the MoU as an actor which, through the mechanics of translation, creates its own actor network that it seeks to inscribe with its own discourse to attain a ‘black box' status. The inclusion of discourse as a moment and use of Critical Discourse Analysis provides for the penetration of the impenetrable black box of network interaction and analytical possibilities. The paper argues for the recognition of discourse as a moment in ANT which strengthens it and affords a mode of analysis to deconstruct or explore inner distributions of power.
