ABSTRACT The beauty of batik as one form of visual culture in Indonesia is one of the priceless inheritance which has a philosophical symbolic meaning that regulates the social relationship between human and the human relationships with the God. The history of batik never revealed when batik began to exist and who created it. Batik in Indonesia has been known since the era of the Majapahit Kingdom and continues to grow until the emergence of the next kingdoms. Exploration of visual culture in Indonesia becomes a challenge in its learning and its realization. The reason is that every culture has its own social norm / custom that is very strong and influences the people's lives.The diverse application of batik motifs on various products greatly influences the strength of the existence of batik as one form of art in Indonesia which, of course, can also move the economic side of the creation of creativity that always emerges and develops in society. This artistic research of batik motifs richness that is applied into a wood carving motif is proposed to support the development of batik. This research uses a method of motifs exploration by bringing up traditional batik motifs that are packaged in a semi relief wood carving by applying a new motif patterned in accordance to the wood carving techniques. This method conveys traditional batik motifs with a three-dimensional style and in different  size in order to bring up the three-dimensional style. Keywords: Exploration, Batik Motifs, Wood Carving. ABSTRAK Keindahan batik sebagai salah satu wujud budaya rupa di Indonesia adalah merupakan salah satu warisan tak ternilai harganya, yang mempunyai kandungan makna simbolis filsafati yang mengatur hubungan sosial antar manusia serta hubungan manusia dengan Dzat Yang Maha Agung. Dalam kesejarahan tentang keberadaan batik tidak pernah diungkap kapan kali pertama muncul dan siapa yang menciptakannya. Namun batik di Indonesia telah dikenal sejak zaman Kerajaan Majapahit dan terus berkembang hingga munculnya kerajaan-kerajaan berikutnya. Ekplorasi sebuah kekayaan budaya rupa di Indonesia merupakan sebuah tantangan dalam hal pembelajaran dan perwujudannya. Hal tersebut dikarenakan setiap kekayaan budaya diiringi sebuah norma/adat sosial yang sangat kuat dan berpengaruh dalam sendi kehidupan masyarakat. Aplikasi motif batik yang beragam pada berbagai produk ini sangat mempengaruhi kekuatan keberadaan batik sebagai salah satu wujud seni rupa di Indonesia, yang tentunya juga dapat mengerakkan sisi ekonomi dari terciptanya kreativitas yang selalu muncul dan berkembang di masyarakat. Sebagai salah satu dukungan dalam perkembangan wujud seni batik ini, maka diusulkan sebuah penelitian kekaryaan (artistik) tentang kekayaan motif batik yang mengaplikasikan ke dalam sebuah motif ukir kayu yang selama ini belum pernah dilakukan. Sajian penelitian ini menggunakan metode eksplorasi motif, yaitu memunculkan motif-motif batik tradisi yang dikemas dalam tampilan ukir kayu semi relief dengan mengaplikasikan pola motif garapan baru sesuai dengan ranah teknik ukir kayu. Metode ini menuangkan motif batik tradisi namun dengan gaya tiga dimensi yang terdapat sedikit gubahan ukuran sebagai upaya memunculkan kekuatan tiga dimensionalnya. Kata Kunci : Ekplorasi, Motif Batik, Ukir Kayu.

Two studies explore the structure and psychological makeup of jeitinho, a Brazilian indigenous construct associated with problem-solving strategies in strong hierarchies. Study 1 used a scenario approach with nonstudent participants and demonstrated that jeitinho can be described by a three-dimensional structure: corruption, creativity, and social norm breaking. Study 2 used individual and social norm scenarios in nonstudent samples and demonstrated that moral leniency is associated with more corruption and social norm breaking. Furthermore, only in the personal but not the social norm condition was greater social dominance orientation associated with more corruption and social norm breaking. Jeitinho is not a monolitical construct, but it is a complex sociocultural strategy that has distinct functional components at the personal and normative levels. Theoretical advances in the understanding of social norms and indigenous psychology by examining both culture-specific and general social-psychological processes are outlined.

This article examines images of children and youth taken in connection with the Miles for Millions walkathon, a wildly popular charity event in 1960s and 70s Canada. It argues that as cultural objects, images of children accomplished several things: they delivered potent messages about the country’s present and future, mobilized adults around Canada’s relatively new role in international development, and reassured the nation that the kids were all right. Images of Canadian youth were used alongside those of the sentimentalized, racialized Third World child, a juxtaposition that ultimately helped spark enthusiasm for the walkathon and engender a consciousness among Canadian youth of their own able-bodiedness. The visual culture of the Miles for Millions provides an excellent example of the ‘knowing child’ and of the popular contemporary style of representing children ‘in their own worlds.’ While focused on the semiotics of the Miles for Millions pictorial, this article also explores the possibility of reading the images of youth for what they can tell us about the social history of the event.

Secularization and digital culture are the influencing aspects that define the characteristics of religious societies in the 21st century. As a formation of the history of social change, these two elements greatly determine the efforts of religion, in doing theology and church services at the present, in the term of digital theology. Indeed, It is determined by the surprising rise of the COVID-19 pandemic which forces religious efforts to deal with digital things. As a new experience, digital theology seeks a form as to how the social change made it. Elements such as secularization,  digital culture, and church formation become the important aspects to determine the direction of doing theology. Based on these new experiences, this paper will describe a sketch of how to doing digital theology in Indonesia, especially in the case of GMIT. With the theology of incarnation as the frame, digital theology puts the relational substance (God-human, among human relationships and between the real and digital world. As the digital world as a locus, digital theology therefore over a liquid digital church and the presensia-accompaniment model of a church mission to be the sketch of doing theology in the digital context in Indonesia.AbstrakSekularisasi dan kultur digital adalah dua elemen yang berpengaruh dalam ciri keberagamaan masyarakat religius di abad ke 21. Sebagai bentukan dari sejarah perubahan sosial, kedua hal ini sangat menentukan upaya  beragama, berteologi dan bergereja  dalam konteks kekinian.  Salah satu istilah yang dikedepankan adalah teologi digital. Bentuk berteologi digital saat ini justru didorong oleh situasi pandemi COVID-19. Sebagai sebuah pengalaman dadakan dan baru berteologi secara digital menjadi upaya mencari bentuk mengikuti perubahan sosial` Elemen seperti sekularisasi dan kultur digital dan geliat beragama menjadi aspek yang menentukan arah berteologi. Dengan berpatokan pada pengalaman baru inilah tulisan ini berkenan memberikan gambaran sketsa berteologi digital di Indonesia melalui pengalaman bergereja di GMIT. Payung teologi inkarnasi yang dipakai sebagai usulan berteologi, mendasari keterkaitan relasional baik antara Allah dan manusia, antar-manusia maupun antara  dunia real dan digital. Dalam memaknai ruang digital menjadi locus berteologi, maka sketsa gereja cair digital, dan model kehadiran digital presensia dan accompaniment menjadi sebuah tawaran bergereja dan bermisi dalam konteks digital di Indonesia.

AbstractThe significance of the kinship relationship between the mother's brother and sister's son (avunculate) was one of the most discussed topics in the history of social anthropology. Two theories of pre-Schneiderian age – descent and alliance approaches – both consider avuncular relations as being tense and contradictive, associated with certain privileges of the maternal uncle and his senior hierarchical position in relation to Ego. This paper tries to establish the relevance of this classical anthropological theme to contemporary social and political realities in Buriad society, specifically to extend the discussion of the classificatory/metaphorical use of avuncular kinship terminology to a new context – that of diaspora relationships with homeland and host society. A recent tendency in kinship studies argues that kinship terminology can be employed flexibly to handle relationships of various kinds, and suggests that kinship terms should often be understood as referring to a kind of social relationship rather than to a specifically genealogical connection. Two cases, which I present in the paper, show how Buriad diaspora communities in Mongolia and Inner Mongolia (China) involve the avuncular relationship to define their concerns and tensions in relation both to colonisers in the homeland in Russia and to the social inequality of migrants in their host societies. This local phenomenon shows that kinship terminology continues to have a wider social significance, being used, for example, to express current inequalities of power and the impact of political changes on local experience.

The rule of law, understood as ideology and legal rules, is believed to be a competitive advantage of Western civilization, supporting its sustainable development. Yet it can also be viewed as a social norm of citizens who respect the law and follow its commands. How does this social norm emerge in different societies? This question must be answered through the social history of the law in Western and non-Western societies from a comparative perspective. This paper outlines the main features of comparative socio-legal history and tests it on some significant historical examples. In the first part of the article, the authors propose a functional classification of legal systems into three ideal Weberian types-the law of judges, learned law, and the law of the authorities. It allows us to consider the origin of the social norm of the rule of law. In the second part of the article, the authors trace the transition from the ideal types to natural legal systems and identify the factors that determine the stability of the social norm of the rule of law where it originated. In the final part of the article, the authors conclude that, first, the social norm of the rule of law emerged in the societies where the law had been treated either as a means of resolving disputes (the law of judges) or as the rules of fair, correct conduct (learned law), for example, the Roman Republic, medieval England, continental Europe, and the Ottoman Empire. Secondly, the stability of the social norm of the rule of law seems to be explained by a "triangle" of factors, namely: 1) political competition where all participants understand the inevitability of compromise on the basis of the law, 2) law which is suitable for finding a compromise due to its internal merits, 3) a professional community of jurists who develop and apply law independently of the administration. Such a triangle is possible in any society where the law of judges or learned law prevails and where the majority of participants in the political process are ready to compromise based on the current law. / JEL Classification: K 10; K 11; K 12

During the last twenty or twenty-five years medieval historians have been much interested in the composition of the English episcopate. A number of studies of it have been published on periods ranging from the eleventh to the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. A further paper might well seem superfluous. My reason for offering one is that most previous writers have concentrated on analysing the professional circles from which the bishops were drawn, and suggesting the influences which their early careers as royal clerks, university masters and students, secular or regular clergy, may have had on their later work as bishops. They have shown comparatively little interest in their social background and provenance, except for those bishops who belonged to magnate families. Some years ago, when working on the political activities of Edward II's bishops, it seemed to me that social origins, family connexions and provenance might in a number of cases have had at least as much influence on a bishop's attitude to politics as his early career. I there fore collected information about the origins and provenance of these bishops. I now think that a rather more careful and complete study of this subject might throw further light not only on the political history of the reign, but on other problems connected with the character and work of the English episcopate. There is a general impression that in England in the later middle ages the bishops' ties with their dioceses were becoming less close, and that they were normally spending less time in diocesan work than their predecessors in the thirteenth century.

Abstract The stereotype of people with autism as unresponsive or uninterested in other people was prominent in the 1980s. However, this view of autism has steadily given way to recognition of important individual differences in the social-emotional development of affected people and a more precise understanding of the possible role social motivation has in their early development.
