The Impact

This research aims to show the masculinity crisis experienced by a male character (a husband) due to the shift role of breadwinner in marriage in the short story "Huruf Terakhir" by Benny Arnas. This research is essential because it can demonstrate the impact of the wife's involvement to work in the public domain towards the husband's condition. This research is qualitative research by utilizing the concept of gender. Data collection techniques are carried out through document tracing on a short story "Huruf Terakhir" by Benny Arnas as the corpus.  The data obtained was analyzed using descriptive analysis method. The results showed that shifting role of breadwinner can cause a man (a husband) to experience a crisis of masculinity such as loss of independence, confidence, courage, assertiveness, and emotional control. The shifting role as breadwinner is also shown to open the opportunities for repression in women. Therefore, the research on the short story "Huruf Terakhir" is expected to contribute to the study of gender-sensitive literature, especially since it is able to show masculinity traits associated with the role of breadwinner can complicate men’s position and  potentially hinder women's freedom.

Gray Area

This chapter offers a normative assessment of the political risks and diffuse democratic costs related to the blurring process, and considers its cumulative effects from the standpoint of democratic theory. It points at the role of the public sphere's autonomy as a critical condition for democratic citizenship. Because this gray area remains largely shielded from most forms of political and professional oversight, it has become a new democratic “black hole” in which professional intermediaries — lawyers, consultants, and so forth — thrive and prosper. When confronting this extraterritorial zone that has grown up at the core of political systems, and the corrosive effects of its expansion, democracies appear to be seriously underequipped. The blurring of the public–private divide not only weakens the capacity to produce a “public interest” that rests at bay from market asymmetries, but also the very ability to conceptually identify what such a “public interest” may be. This may be one of the biggest challenges ahead for neoliberalized democracies.

Immense Potential

Media influence on politics has always been a debatable subject due to its immense potential. Media is regarded as the fourth estate of the nation, and the role of traditional media in the political arena is indispensable. The agenda-setting by newspapers plays a pivotal part in forming the image of a political party. This study is an exertion to examine the leading English and Urdu newspapers (Dawn, The News, Jang, Nawa-i-Waqt) of Pakistan to find out the portrayal given to PPPP, PML-N and PTI during PPPP's five-year (2008- 2013) regime. By employing the content analysis method, findings indicate that PML-N was given the maximum editorial and news coverage regarding the important national issues, whereas PPPP got the second most frequent coverage. PPPP was presented in an unfavourable manner, and PLM-N was given the least negative reportage. Results of the study revealed that English and Urdu newspapers adopted a supportive stance towards PML (N).

Technology in the development of the flow of production, consumption and distribution of information becomes vital. The urgency of the role of technology in information masification is also used by mass media, especially electronic mass media such as television. The development of electronic mass media to date, is also increasingly promising for all parties, not apart from the political elite who use or cooperate with the mass media crew in presenting various programs. Not only that, the news program was no less interesting to most political actors in order to generate opinions among the people themselves. As in the presidential election some time ago, the role of mass media and its news program succeeded in changing people's attitudes towards the figure of a presidential candidate. The problems and use of electronic mass media are considered to be enough to attract sympathy from the public, where in the news program on television the public can see and hear directly what is done and spoken by the political elite. And this can also give rise to responses to opinions in the community.

Abstract. Community participation is very important in realizing sustainable village development, so that development planning can be felt by every level of society. Currently, the development carried out in Katapang Indah Village has not been fully participatory. This can be seen from the contribution of community participation in the development planning process, where the development being implemented has not responded to community needs. Given the importance of community participation in the development planning process, it is necessary to conduct a study on efforts to increase community participation in Katapang Indah Village, in order to realize sustainable development. The purpose of this study is to identify the form and level of community participation in the development planning process. By using the descriptive analysis method, the results show that community participation in Katapang Indah Village is included in the induced participation group with the form of vertical participation, where the community only follows policies that have been formulated by village leaders or traditional leaders. This is due to the lack of knowledge from the community about the importance of participating in the activities of the village development process. Efforts were made to (1) provide outreach to the public about the mechanism for community participation in the planning process; (2) increasing the intensity of socialization and counseling regarding development planning to the community; (3) increasing the role of traditional and community leaders in formulating decisions by taking into account the characteristics and needs of village communities.Keywords: community participation, development planning process, sustainable village developmentAbstrak. Partisipasi masyarakat merupakan sesuatu yang sangat penting dalam mewujudkan pembangunan desa secara berkelanjutan, sehingga perencanaan pembangunan tersebut dapat dirasakan oleh setiap lapisan masyarakat. Pembangunan yang dilakukan di Desa Katapang Indah, pada saat ini belum sepenuhnya dilakukan secara partisipatif. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari kontribusi partisipasi masyarakat dalam proses perencanaan pembangunan, dimana pembangunan yang dilaksanakan belum menjawab terhadap kebutuhan masyarakat. Mengingat pentingnya partisipasi masyarakat dalam proses perencanaan pembangunan, perlu dilakukan kajian mengenai upaya untuk meningkatkan partisipasi masyarakat di Desa Katapang Indah, agar dapat mewujudkan pembangunan berkelanjutan. Tujuan dari kajian ini adalah mengidentifikasi bentuk dan tingkat partisipasi masyarakat dalam proses perencanaan pembangunan. Dengan menggunakan metode analisis deskriptif diperoleh hasil bahwa partisipasi masyarakat di Desa Katapang Indah termasuk pada kelompok partisipasi terinduksi dengan bentuk partisipasi vertical, dimana masyarakat hanya mengikuti kebijakan sudah dirumuskan oleh pemimpin desa atau tokoh adat. Hal ini disebabkan karena kurangnya pengetahuan dari masyarakat akan pentingnya berpartisipasi dalam kegiatan proses pembangunan desa. Upaya yang dilakukan adalah (1) memberikan penyuluhan kepada masyarakat tentang mekanisme partisipasi masyarakat dalam proses perencanaan; (2) meningkatkan intensitas sosialisasi dan penyuluhan mengenai perencanaan pembangunan kepada masyarakat; (3) meningkatkan peran dari tokoh adat dan tokoh masyarakat dalam merumuskan keputusan dengan memperhatikan karakteristik dan kebutuhan masyarakat desa.Kata Kunci : partisipasi masyarakat, proses perencanaan pembangunan, pembangunan desa berkelanjutan

Burning Money

This study aims to determine the application of sanctions to the perpetrators of the crime of destroying money in the pitra yadnya ceremony. The phenomenon that is happening now is that many Hindu people in Bali burn rupiah currency in the pitra yadnya ceremony on the grounds that it is a provision for the person being ceremonied. Grounded by the phenomenon the stuy examines two issues: a) how is regulate the destruction of money regulating in the to law Law Number 7 of 2011 concerning Currency, b) whether or not the burning of money as a fundametal provision in the pitra yadnya ceremony is classified as a criminal act. In conducting this research, the authors use normative the research method and statutory approachs and conceptual approach. Furthermore, the legal materials that have been collected are processed using the descriptive analysis method. The results showed that the regulation on the destruction of rupiah currency contained in Article 1 paragraph (10) of Law Number 7 of 2011 and Article 11 paragraph (1) to Article 11 paragraph (4) also regulates the destruction of rupiah. Burning money as a provision in the pitra yadnya ceremony cannot be classified as a criminal act because it does not fulfill the criminal element, namely the element of the intent of the act being committed and the inner will of the person burning the money in question. Apart from that, this also gets the penalties written off because they are considered connected to the public interest.

Frequent protests, arising from a diversity of motivations, are a feature of the South African landscape. Despite the right to protest being entrenched in section 17 of the Constitution, it is under threat, and communities seeking to protest increasingly risk criminalisation. This article identifies some of the emerging themes in the protest landscape and the way the right to protest is being suppressed. Four dominant themes are highlighted through the lens of the experiences of the public interest legal sector: the conflation of notification and permission; heavy-handed state responses to protests; the abuse of bail procedures; and the use of interdicts. Law has become at least one of the sites of contestation in the protest arena. The political space held open by the existence of the right to protest is thus closing as a result of violations of this right. It is therefore both useful and necessary to interrogate the role of lawyers in such contestation. This article also examines the context and nature of the public interest legal sector’s response to these emerging themes.

Religious Symbols

The Sámi are an indigenous people residing in Sápmi, a region cutting across northern Scandinavia (Norway, Finland, Sweden) and the Kola Peninsula in Northwest Russia. This article tells the story of a Sámi sun symbol on a seventeen century drum, originally from Swedish Sápmi, that was registered as a trademark by a jewellery company in Norway called “Tana Gull and Sølvsmie AS” in 2009. The mark was invalidated in 2020 because, according to the Norwegian Intellectual Property Office, the registration of a religious symbol was likely to infringe on the rights of the Sámi, whose access to their own cultural and religious symbols should be protected. The basis for the decision was a public policy exception, a provision within trademark law excluding the registration of signs “contrary to morality or public policy”, and allowing the law into account public opinion, public interest and human rights. Analysis of this case is used to shape the debate about the role of intellectual property law in addressing the problem of overcommercialization, for example by preventing cultural misappropriation. The authors suggest that the notion of blasphemy or religious offence through banal commercialization should be more broadly formulated in interpretation of the public policy exception in order to take account of cultural misappropriation. They also argue that protecting the public domain by preventing registration of important cultural and religious symbols is not sufficient to address the problem of cultural misappropriation in a commercial context. Positive protection through trademark registrations is just as important as their defensive protection.
