ABSTRAK             Salah satu penyebab keberadaan kesenian Genggong menjadi tidak populer dalam kehidupan masyarakat masa Global adalah peran pendidikan yang diduga tidak berpihak pada seni Genggong seperti di Desa Batuan. Seni pertunjukan Genggong Batuan di era tahun 1973 sempat menjadi karya seni pertunjukan yang mengundang perhatian khususnya pada pertunjukan seni hiburan. Kekhasan dan keunikan bentuk karya ternyata tidak cukup mampu mempertahankan populeritasnya di panggung hiburan.             Kajian tulisan ini berangkat dari metode kualitatif yang dirancang guna memperoleh jawaban secara lebih mendalam. Analisis data dilakukan dengan memperhatikan keabsahan data langsung di lapangan selain dokumentasi tersimpan. Teori yang dipakai membedah persoalan kuasa adalah diambil dari teori kuasa yang menekankan pada ranah kuasa dan juga habitus yang terjadi di masyarakat.             Hasil akhir kajian ini adalah temuan yang berhubungan dengan proses pendidikan seni tradisional Genggong nyatanya tidak terkait dengan aktivitas kegiatan yang hiburan. Keterlantaran yang diakibatnya oleh perubahan gaya hidup dan struktur yang kurang berpihak pada seni Genggong Desa Batuan. ABSTRACT One of the causes of the existence of Genggong art became unpopular in the lives of the people of the Global period was the role of education which was allegedly not in favor of Genggong art such as in the Village of Batuan. The performance of Genggong Batuan in the 1973 era had become a performance art work that drew attention especially to entertainment art performances. The peculiarity and uniqueness of the form of work turned out to be not enough to maintain its popularity on the entertainment stage. The study of this paper departs from qualitative methods designed to obtain answers in more depth. Data analysis is done by paying attention to the validity of direct data in the field besides the stored documentation. The theory used to dissect the issue of power is taken from the theory of power which emphasizes the realm of power and also habitus that occurs in society. The final result of this study is that findings related to the process of traditional Genggong art education are in fact not related to entertainment activities. The negligence that was caused by changes in lifestyle and structure was not in favor of Genggong Desa Batuan art.

Latar belakang gerakan sosial masyarakat Kampung Labaluba yaitu keadaan kampungnya yang hanya terdiri dari beberapa kepala keluarga tiap kampung dan jarak yang jauh masing-masing kampung membuat keadaan masyarakatnya sulit untuk berkomnikasi dan tiap kampung hanya terdiri dari lima sampai dengan tujuh kepala keluarga saja. Kampung ini letaknya paling timur pulau Muna terbentang dari ujung kota Raha sekarang sampai kampung Wakuru yang saat ini. Kondisi ini juga yang menjadi salah satu faktor penyebab kampung ini kurang berkembang baik dibidang ekonomi, sosial politik, pendidikan maupun di bidang kebudayaan. Keadaan ini diperparah lagi dengan sifat dan karakter penduduknya yang masih sangat primitif. Faktor yang mendorong adanya gerakan sosial masyarakat Kampung Labaluba Desa Kontumere Kecamatan Kabawo Kabupaten Muna adalah adanya ketidaksesuaian antara keinginan pemerintah setempat dan masyarakat yang mendiami Kampung Labaluba pada waktu itu. Sedangkan proses gerakan sosial masyarakat Kampung Labaluba Desa Kontumere Kecamatan Kabawo Kabupaten Muna bermula ketika pemerintah seolah memaksakan kehendaknya kepada rakyat yang menyebabkan rakyat tidak setuju dengan kebijakan tersebut. Akibat yang ditimbulkan dari adanya gerakan sosial masyarakat Kampung Labaluba Desa Kontumere Kecamatan Kabawo Kabupaten Muna terbagi dua yaitu akibat positif dan akibat negatif.Kata Kunci: Gerakan Sosial, Factor dan Dampaknya ABSTRACT: The main issues in this study include the background of the social movement of Labaluba Village, Kontumere Village, Kabawo Sub-District, Muna District, Factors that encourage social movements of Labaluba Kampung Sub-village, Kontumere Village, Kabawo Sub-District, Muna District, the social movement process of Labaluba Village, Kontumere Village, Kabawo Sub-District Muna Regency and due to Labaluba community social movements Kontumere Village Kabawo District Muna Regency?

This condition is also one of the factors causing the village to be less developed in the economic, social political, educational and cultural fields. This situation is made worse by the very primitive nature and character of the population.

Local governance encompasses the involvement of local governments and other community-based organizations in participatory decision-making for efficient delivery of public services. In the developing world, however, the weakness of the local government and local governance has inhibited the efficient and effective delivery of these services. Relying on water and sanitation data and interviews of relevant officials, this study analyses the structure of governance of water supply and sanitation (WSS) at the community levels in selected medium-sized urban centres in Nigeria. Results showed that majority of the city dwellers lacked access to safe water and sanitation, an indication of convoluted, poorly regulated provision regimes and the waning capacity of local governments to galvanize local actions towards the efficient provision and management of these services at community levels. Multiple provision regimes, weak coordinating and regulatory frameworks characterize WSS governance. Further, the sub-national authorities’ encroachment on local government funds which deprived these tiers of government the resources they could have used in providing these essential services presents a major setback. Local governments require financial and constitutional autonomy to provide basic services to the people and supervise and coordinate the activities of other governmental and non-governmental actors involved in service provision.
