This paper argues for a new analytical framework that draws the most attention to the relationship between demography and sociocultural anthropology, involving micro-level research. It is called ‘a case study approach to studying fertility’, which involves ‘process and product’. The analysis process constitutes a specific way of gathering comprehensive, systematic, and in-depth information about fertility, which leads eventually to a product: a case study fertility data. The incorporation of theories of culture as ‘the evaluative behaviour of social actors’ and ‘social constructionism’ appears to provide an attractive alternative theory of culture for fertility analysis. Special emphasis is placed on the political, economic, feminism, and social constructionism or, more generally, practice approaches to social facts. The present paper begins with good reason to think why we use a case study approach to studying fertility and its theoretical base. We then reconnoitre ‘a theory of culture for demography’ in order to flesh out ‘a coherent method to fit cultural anthropology into the demographic enterprise: a third generation fertility study’. Such interrogation helps clarify problems and advantages in terms of theory, methodology, practicality, useful outcomes and differences.Key words: Demography and sociocultural anthropology;  fertilityTribhuvan University Journal Volume XXVI No. 1, 2009 Page: 69-80

The determination of the No Smoking Area is an effort to protect the community against the risk of health problems due to the environment contaminated with cigarette smoke. The purpose of this study was to determine the implementation of the No Smoking Area policy at the Undata Regional General Hospital (RSUD), Palu, especially in the aspects of communication, resources, disposition. , and bureaucratic structures. This type of research is qualitative research with a case study approach. Determination of informants is done through purposive sampling technique, namely the researcher uses his judgment in selecting informants to obtain in-depth information according to the research objectives. the concept of communication is good enough. The KTR Task Force at Undata Hospital uses print and electronic media. In the resource variable, the results are not good enough. The KTR Task Force at Undata Hospital is still lacking in terms of the number, namely only 15 people previously numbered 30 people. The disposition variables obtained in this study are good enough. The appointment of the KTR task force at Undata Hospital is directly selected by the hospital director, but the supervisory officers still lack incentives. In the bureaucratic structure variable, the results were quite good. The most authorized person in implementing the implementation of the KTR policy implementation at the Undata Hospital Palu is the Task Force coordinator. The suggestion in this research is that the KTR Task Force at Undata Hospital should be added and the Undata Hospital should create a smoking area.

Abstract This study aims to examine the implementation of strengthening character education in Jamaah Majelis Taklim Shirotol Mustaqim of Semarang City to respond to the implementation of PMA No. 29 of 2019 concerning Majelis Taklim. This research is qualitative research with a case study approach. Data collection is done by observation, interviews, and document searches. This study resulted in the finding that the socialization of PMA No.29 had not been carried out optimally in the city of Semarang. Majelis Taklim Shirotol Mustaqim has not yet received more in-depth information on how the PMA should be implemented, but substantively accepts what is contained in it. PMA No. 29 is urgently needed by Majelis Taklim to strengthen character education and to fortify society from radicalism and to realize a commitment to religious moderation. The effort made by Majelis Taklim is to develop character through professional-religious concepts. Professionalism is realized by congregations who have the expertise (skills) and live independently in social life. While religious character is reflected in the morality of al-karimah and understands Islam well. This study suggests that: (1) Strengthening the professional-religious character needs to be implemented more clearly in Majelis Taklim, (2) Ministry of Religion is more intense in conducting better socialization regarding the implementation of PMA No. 29 of 2019, (3) Ministry of Religion makes a more detailed technical guidance regarding the implementation of PMA No. 29.   Abstrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji implementasi penguatan pendidikan karakter professional-religius pada jamaah Majelis Taklim Shirotol Mustaqim Kota Semarang dalam upaya merespons implementasi PMA No. 29 tahun 2019 tentang Majelis Taklim. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara dan penelusuran dokumen. Penelitian ini menghasilkan temuan bahwa upaya yang dilakukan Majelis Taklim Shirotol Mustaqim ialah dengan pengembangan karakter melalui konsep profesional-religius. Profesional diwujudkan dengan jamaah yang memiliki keahlian serta hidup mandiri dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat. Sedangkan religius tercermin dalam akhlak al-karimah serta memahami Agama Islam dengan baik. Majelis Taklim Shirotol Mustaqim belum mendapatkan informasi yang lebih dalam tentang bagaimana PMA itu harus diimplementasikan, namun secara substantif menerima apa yang terkandung di dalamnya. PMA No. 29 sangat dibutuhkan oleh Majelis Taklim dalam rangka penguatan karakter jamaah untuk membentengi masyarakat dari paham radikalisme dan dalam upaya mewujudkan komitmen pada moderasi beragama. Penelitian ini menyarankan agar: (1) Penguatan karakter professional-religius perlu diimplementasikan secara lebih nyata di Majelis Taklim, (2) Kementerian Agama hendaknya lebih intens melakukan sosialisasi dengan lebih baik tentang implementasi PMA No. 29 tahun 2019, (3) Kementerian Agama hendaknya membuat Juknis yang lebih rinci terkait implementasi dari PMA No 29.

Scandals have featured consistently in the development and operation of public policing in England and Wales. However, criminologists have rarely explored scandal as a concept or its attempted management by criminal justice organizations. This article contributes to the filling of this gap with the intention of initiating debate on the utility of scandal as a conceptual tool for the analysis of policing and criminal justice. It identifies the core components of a scandal using an analytical framework informed by scandal research undertaken across disciplinary areas. Taking a case study approach, this framework is applied to the Leveson Inquiry which explored a combination of potentially scandalous episodes within the overarching scandal of phone-hacking. The article concludes that phone-hacking was a scandal at macro and micro levels under this framework yet damage to the reputation of the police was mitigated through active impression management and enduring characteristics of the police image.

Migration Research

An ethnographic case study approach to understanding women’s actions and reactions to husbands’ emigration—or potential emigration—offers a distinct set of challenges to a U.S.-based researcher.  International migration research in a foreign context likely offers challenges in language, culture, lifestyle, as well as potential gender norm impediments. A mixed methods approach contributed to successfully overcoming barriers through an array of research methods, strategies, and tactics, as well as practicing flexibility in data gathering methods. Even this researcher’s influence on the research was minimized and alleviated, to a degree, through ascertaining common ground with many of the women. Research with the women of San Juan Guelavía, Oaxaca, Mexico offered numerous and constant challenges, each overcome with ensuing rewards.
