Social Protection Program

Social protection meets different aspects of the needs of vulnerable groups, such as the economic, health, education, and family relations and ties in the Iraqi society. This is because vulnerable groups have suffered from social and economic influences that have negative implications on the social reality as a whole. Poverty is a case in point, which paved the way to frequent setbacks that have led to social structure instability. Accordingly, the present study aims to examine the role and effect of the Net of Social Protection Program in equally distributing social protection to curb or mitigate any negative consequnces that might happen to the poor segments and vulnerable people, who are succeptible to shocks, such as: the orphans, unemployed, disabled and the poor. Since such a step reduces poverty rates, the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs has sought through its social protection network programs to achieve equality, the biggest achievement to the country. Having examined the issue, the researcher has found that there is no social justice in distributing material guarantees to the poor or the people in need. There are several individuals whose names are registered in the lists of the people in need. Such names are either fake or belong to people who do not really need such aids. According the puposes behind the present aims are to: maintain fairness in distributing cash collaterals for the people who live below the poverty line in need, overcome the difficulties of coping with the poor community, deal with those people positively, and uplift them. The study has concluded that the number of poor people is increasing in the Iraqi society. Besides, such groups of people need to be respected, severed and provided with a decent way of living. All such rights are part and parcel of human rights.

Resumen: La Evangelii Gaudium y los discursos ofrecidos durante los viajes apostólicos a Latinoamérica han dejado clara la opción teológico-pastoral del Papa Francisco, cuyo eje se encuentra en torno a la opción preferencial por «una Iglesia pobre que asuma al pueblo-pobre» y, desde ahí, se deje evangelizar reconociendo el lugar teológico que tiene la cultura popular como mediación socioanalítica y de encuentro con el Dios de Jesús. Para comprender esto hay que adentrarse en el debate sociohistórico de la teología latinoamericana de la liberación y en el modo como esta fue recibida en Argentina por medio de la teología del pueblo. Así también, es necesario seguir los debates sobre la relación que ha de existir entre el anuncio del Evangelio, la vida de la Iglesia y la realidad de los pobres, según han sido expuestos desde Medellín hasta Aparecida. En el presente artículo iremos desarrollando estos ejes fundamentales en los que se inspira la opción teológico-pastoral del Papa Francisco y las consecuencias para la credibilidad de la comunidad cristiana en la era globalizada.Abstract: The Evangelii Gaudium and the speeches offered during the Papal Apostolic Journeys to Latin America made more clear the theological and pastoral option of Pope Francis, whose axis is around a preferential option for «a poor Church that assumes the poor-people». A Church that recognizes the theological locus of the popular culture, as a socio-analytic mediation to encounter the God of Jesus. To understand this, it is mandatory to examine the social and historical debates occasioned by Latin American Liberation Theology and the way it was received in Argentina through the so called «Theology of the People». It will also be necessary to follow the discussions on the relationship between the proclamation of the Gospel, the life of the Church and the reality of the poor, as they have been stated from Medellin and San Miguel to Aparecida. In this article we will study those key areas and topics in which Pope Francis has developed his theological-pastoral option and its consequences for the credibility of the Christian community in a globalized era.

Автор рассматривает социальную категорию нищих в религиозном контексте, а также в свете конкретной русской этнической традиции. В последнем случае нищие были близки группе «странников», богомольцев, которые посвятили свою жизнь паломничеству по святым местам. Между тем уже в начале XX в. немалое число нищих были просто бедняками, не имеющими дома и заработка. В советское время с нищенством начинают целенаправленно бороться, как с социально вредным явлением. Но при этом советская власть своими масштабными проектами – индустриализацией и особенно коллективизацией, борьбой с враждебными классами, порождала миллионы нищих. Она боролась с ними, как с врагами народа. Еще одна большая волна нищих появилась после Великой Отечественной войны, но и эти нищие не нашли должного сочувствия у власти. В целом, отношение к нищим в советское время можно охарактеризовать как репрессивное, вне традиции, вне религиозных норм, что служит обличением власти. The author considers the social category of the poor in a religious context, as well as in the light of a specific Russian ethnic tradition. In the latter case, the poor were close to the category of “wanderers,” pilgrims who dedicated their lives to pilgrimage to holy places. Meanwhile, at the beginning of the XX century. a considerable number of beggars were simply poor people who did not have a home or income. In Soviet times, the authorities began to struggle with poverty in a deliberate way, as with a socially harmful phenomenon. But at the same time, the Soviet government with its large-scale projects - industrialization and especially collectivization, the struggle against hostile classes - generated millions of beggars. It fought with them, as with the enemies of the people. Another big wave of beggars appeared after World War II, but these beggars did not meet the proper sympathy of the government. In general, the attitude towards the poor in Soviet times can be described as repressive, outside of tradition, outside of religious norms, which serves as a denunciation of power.

Penelitian ini bertujuan (1) mendeskripsikan struktur fisik sajak “Wakil Rakyat” karya Rachmat Djoko Pradopo dan (2) mendeskripsikan kritik sosial yang terdapat di dalam sajak tersebut. Untuk mencapai tujuan itu digunakan dua pendekatan, yaitu (1) pendekatan struktur dan (2) pendekatan semiotika. Hasil analisis yang diperoleh adalah (1) bahwa sajak tersebut dibangun dengan struktur fisik yang padu, yang terbukti dari eratnya kaitan antarunsur struktur yang terdiri atas diksi, pengimajian (citraan), kata konkret, majas (bahasa figuratif), versifikasi (rima, ritme), dan tipografi dan (2) bahwa kritik sosial yang diangkat dalam sajak itu adalah para wakil rakyat (pejabat legislatif dan eksekutif) yang merupakan hasil pilihan rakyat dalam melaksanakan tugasnya, mendahulukan kepentingan diri sendiri atau kelompoknya daripada kepentingan rakyat. Abstract: This research is proposed to (1) describe the physical structure of poetry “Wakil Rakyat” written by Rachmat Djoko Pradopo and (2) describe the social critics in the poetry. Thus, two approaches are used, i.e. structural and semiotic. The findings are (1) that poetry is constructed with a physical structure proven by the tight bond among the structural element consisting of diction, imagination, concrete word, figurative language, verification (rhyme, rhythm, and metrum), and typography and (2) that the social critics highlighted in the poetry are the member of parliament (wakil Rakyat)-who, in doing the duty, do not meet the people expectations by putting forward their own/their group’s interest before the poor people and thus the effort to eliminate the poverty becomes very difficult and has a small possibility to be realized. Key Words: social critic, physical structure, semiotics

Sumber data yang digunakan adalah data Survei Sosial Ekonomi Nasional (Susenas) tahun 2012. Populasi dari penelitian ini adalah seluruh rumah tangga di Indonesia tahun 2012. Sampel penelitian adalah rumah tangga terpilih dari masing-masing blok sensus. Analisis yang dilakukan adalah analisis univariat, bivariat hingga multivariat dengan regresi logistik. Masih terdapat 12,4% penduduk yang mendapatkan Jamkesmas, tetapi tidak miskin atau hampir miskin. Selain itu, masih terdapat 56,4% penduduk yang hampir miskin dan 41,1% penduduk miskin yang belum terjangkau pesertaan Jamkesmas. Layanan gratis merupakan faktor yang paling menentukan apakah penduduk dapat menjadi peserta Jamkesmas atau tidak. Mereka yang memiliki layanan kesehatan gratis berpeluang 5,462 kali mendapatkan layanan Jamkesmas dibandingkan mereka yang tidak memiliki layanan gratis. Perbaikan basis data, pengawasan, evaluasi serta sistem alokasi yang baik sangat diperlukan untuk mengurangi ketidaktepatan sasaran. Penyesuaian data antara Kementerian Kesehatan dan dinas kesehatan daerah berguna dalam penanganan peserta yang belum terdata.AbstractParticipants of Public Health Insurance (Jamkesmas) up to 2010 reached76.4 million including poor and disadvantaged people, meanwhile participants of Regional Health Insurance (Jamkesda) reached 31.6 million people. In principle, Jamkesda program is made to facilitate the poor and disadvantaged people outside Jamkesmas quota funded by local government.

There were 12.4% people receiving Jamkesmas, but they were not poor or almost poor. Moreover, there were 56.4% the almost poor and 41.1% the poor not yet having access to Jamkesmas. Free service is the most determining factor whether people can be Jamkesmas participants.

Database improvement, surveillance, evaluation as well as good allocation system are needed to reduce the inaccuracy of target. Adjustment of data between Health Ministry and local health agency is useful in handling uncovered participants.

A birth certificate is essential to exercising citizenship, yet vast numbers of poor people in developing countries have no official record of their existence. Few academic studies analyze the conditions under which governments come to document and certify births routinely, and those that do leave much to be explained, including why nontotalitarian governments at low to middle levels of economic development come to prioritize birth registration. This article draws attention to the impetus that welfare-building initiatives give to identity documentation. The empirical focus is on contemporary Latin America, where extensions in institutionalized social protection since the 1990s have increased the demand for and supply of birth registration, raising the life chances of the poor and building state infrastructure in the process. The authors' argument promises to have broader applicability as welfare states form in other developing regions.
