In the collective imagination, the practices and outcomes of social entrepreneurship seem to hold hope for a better future. So far, these practices have been largely assumed as idealised types with the ‘social’ in social entrepreneurship underexplored. Such assumed neutrality, we argue, is hampering the development of a more robust theoretical corpus for understanding the phenomenon and inspiring practices that are more effective. In this article, we analyse the sensemaking of the social in social entrepreneurship by exploring the ways in which social entrepreneurs make sense of social problems and develop solutions for addressing them. Our empirical analyses of the stories of 15 social entrepreneurs indicate two distinct types of sensemaking and sensegiving practices, aligned with Amartya Sen’s notions of social justice. Drawing on these findings, sensemaking and social justice theory, we elaborate a two-type social sensemaking model pertaining to the appreciation and assessment of circumstances and the differing problem/solution combinations emerging from alternative ontological views of what constitutes a social problem.

Peraturan Bupati Nomor 5 Tahun 2010 tentang Peraturan Penegakan Syariat Islam dalam pemakaian busana Islam di Kabupaten Aceh Barat. PERBUP ini adalah menjadi pokok permasalahan yang utama dalam penelitian ini. Penerapan peraturan tersebut menjadi kontradiksi di kehidupan masyarakat dalam memahami dan mematuhi kebijakan tersebut. Permasalahan lain dalam qanun syariat islam yang diterapkan di Provinsi Aceh dan khususnya Kabupaten Aceh Barat adalah belum diberlakukannya aturan kepada Warga Negara Asing yang melanggar norma-norma syariat islam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis permasalahan sosial yang dialami masyarakat terkait pelaksanaan peraturan Syariat Islam di masyarakat Aceh Barat. Pendekatan penelitian ini menggunakan kualitatif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan sosial penerapan Syariat Islam di Kabupaten di Aceh Barat pasca pemberlakukan peraturan Bupati Nomor 5 Tahun 2010 belum berjalan secara maksimal karena terjadi peningkatan kasus-kasus yang signifikan dari tahun 2011-2015. Pelanggaran-pelanggaran terhadap penerapan syariat Islam tersebut diantaranya disebabkan oleh kelemahan sosialisasi ke masyarakat dalam penerapan kebijakan dan kurangnya anggaran operasional, sehingga implementasi kebijakan tidak berjalan dengan baik. Selain itu ada juga intervensi kelompok aktivis Hak Asasi Manusia yang meyakini bahwa hukum syariat Islam yang diterapkan di Aceh adalah melanggar HAM.Regent Regulation No. 5 of 2010 on the Regulation of Enforcement of Islamic Sharia in the use of Islamic dress in the District of West Aceh. This is a key issue in this research. The implementation of the regulation becomes a contradiction in the life of the community in understanding and complying with the policy. Another problem in qanun syariat Islam that is applied in Aceh Province and especially West Aceh regency is not yet enforced rules to foreign citizen who violate norms of Islamic sharia. This study aims to identify and analyze social problems experienced by the community related to the implementation of Islamic Sharia rules in the people of West Aceh. This research approach uses qualitative. The results of this study indicate that the social problem of the implementation of Islamic Sharia in the District in West Aceh after the enactment of Regulation No. 5 of 2010 has not been running maximally due to the increase of significant cases from 2011-2015. Violations against the implementation of Islamic Sharia are caused by the weakness of socialization to the community in the implementation of the policy and the lack of operational budget, so the implementation of the policy is not going well. In addition there are also intervention groups of human rights activists who believe that Islamic sharia law applied in Aceh is a violation of human rights.

ABSTRACTThis article offers a theoretical framework for studying loneliness among older people from a social problems perspective. The framework combines the constructionist approach to social problems (Spector and Kitsuse) and systems theory (Luhmann). Based on the first approach, we understand the social problem of loneliness among older people to be the result of claims-making activities by different key actors. These activities are guided by underlying moralities, causalities and solutions. With the second approach, we can explain how social problems are framed differently within different social systems. The proposed framework is primarily aimed at researchers studying social (in contrast to bio-medical or psychological) aspects of loneliness among older people. It helps not only to guide research designs in order to address conflicting perspectives, rationalities and interests but also to enable researchers to grasp fully how ‘loneliness among older people’ is attributed (potentially shifting) meanings through communicative acts by influential stakeholders in the ‘social problems industry‘. Combining constructionism and Luhmann's theory also helps to interpret and explain concrete claims-making concerning loneliness as a social problem. The argument in this article is illustrated via three different social systems: medicine, religion and economy. Loneliness among older people appears to be something different from each of these perspectives: as a matter of health and illness, of spirituality, and of incentives and commodities, respectively.

The discourse on waqf recently appears the back to the surface. It not only discusses about the opinion of the fiqh scholars who have no uniform about understanding and nature waqf  itself, but also to reform and optimize waqf  in order to do more, namely to superintend the social problems of society, related to the prosperity of the economy of the people. Therefore, contextualization and repositioning of waqf institutions becomes a necessiry for immediate implementation. The function and role of waqf is very large in supporting the development and progress of the muslims. Therefore the management of waqf must be able to be optimized. Tragically the management of waqf in Indonesia is still not maximized, so there are some waqf property abandoned in its management, some even missing. This is due to the waqf management still uses traditional-consumptive management pattern. Efforts to develop waqf to be productive and productive, there are four things to note; Institutional aspect, accounting aspect, auditing aspect and aspect of nadhir. If these four aspects can be met, then the utilization of waqf will be more efficient. There are several forms of models that can be run by the manager of waqf, such as by holding Sharia banks as a partner with schema of mura>bah}ah, istis}na>’, ija>rah muntahiyah bi al-tamli>k (financial leasing with purchase option), muza>ra’ah, qard} al-h}asan, musha>rakah (partnership) and mud}a>rabah muqayyadah.

<p><strong>Abstract:</strong> As a potential financial instrument, waqf has played an essential role in resolving the social problems of the society (ummah). Although Indonesia has long applied the existence of waqf, it has not had an impact on providing an optimal contribution to the welfare of the people. Several studies identified patterns of administration in the management of waqf. The purpose of this study aims to identify and explore the model of empowerment of Mahammadiyah waqf land in Magelang and its challenges in the development of the ummah. The study method used to collect data was descriptive qualitative and interviews, which covered the areas administered by the Mahammadiyah. About 78% of these areas are empowered in the form of educational and worship facilities. However, it was observed that empowerment of the land in Magelang was not optimized due to lack of financial resources, unproductivity, and the presence of incompetent and professional Nazhirs. The solution to these problems is through collaboration with financial institutions in collecting cash equivalents, land specifications, formulating a special legal framework for empowering Muhammadiyah waqf, and training for the development of the capacity of the areas.</p><p><strong>Abstrak:</strong> Sebagai instrumen finansial yang potensial, wakaf memiliki peran penting dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan sosial masyarakat (ummah).

This article discusses the impact of eugenics in Britain. It discusses eugenics as a biological way of thinking about social, economic, political, and cultural change. It gives scientific credibility to prejudices, anxieties, and fears that are prevalent primarily among the middle and upper classes. It delineates the tensions between “classic” and “reform”, although this is only one modality along which to align the complex factors that polarized the society—some of them ideological, some of them about tactics, and some based on personalities. It gives a detailed description of the differentiation of societies' activities into study and practice. The social problem group; research into contraceptive methods; family allowances; race mixture; and immigration are discussed. The practices are divided into negative and positive. Finally, this article concludes that eugenicists see feeblemindedness as hereditary, emblematic of degeneracy, and contributes to numerous social problems, such as poverty and unemployment.
