The Role of Cooperative in The Milk Value Chain in West Bandung Regency, West Java Province

AbstractA problem for a circular economy, embedded in its policies, tools, technologies and models, is that it is driven by the interests and needs of producers, rather than customers and users. This opinion paper focuses on an alternative form of governance—agreements, which thanks to their bargaining approach brings actors from across the value chain into the policy process. The purpose of this opinion paper is to uncover and analyse the potential of such agreements for a circular economy. Circular agreements aim at increasing the circulation of materials and are an emerging form of political governance within the EU. These agreements have different names, involve different actors and govern in different ways. However, circular agreements seem to work when other types of regulations fail to establish circulation. These agreements bring actors together and offer a platform for negotiating how advantages and disadvantages can be redistributed between actors in a way that is more suitable for a circular economy. However, circular agreements are dependent on other policy instruments to work and can generate a free-rider problem with uninvolved actors. The agreements may also become too detailed and long term, which leads to problem shifting and lock-ins, respectively.

Between agro-food products, coffee is the first commodity to quarrel in ethical attributes and sustainability issues such as fair trade, premium prices, as well as justified value chain issues. Taking into account the growing coffee consumption in Indonesia, this article tries to prove connoisseur consumers (CCs) are moderating the sustainable consumption and dynamics capabilities (DCs) of single origin coffee shops (SOCSs). An in-depth interview to 30 SOCS managers and 60 baristas and a survey to 450 consumers found that there are significant correlations between connoisseurs attributes such as the depth of a barista’s knowledge of coffee, the barista’s skills, the shop image, the coffee variation, the barista’s communication skills, and the serving techniques and that they have a relationship with an increase in the number of consumers. The existence of CCs has encouraged the practice of consumption sustainability of SOCSs and moderates SOCSs to improve sensing, seizing, and transforming shop management to stand against the competition. Based on the above findings, more in-depth research on the standard character and number of CCs is needed as well as their contribution to the revenue structure of SOCSs. Meanwhile, connoisseur customers’ support is capable of helping the SOCSs in improving their DCs to improve the sustainable consumption of Indonesian single origin coffee in the future.

Cultural Movement

This paper examines the dynamics within the encounter between identity formation of a minority group living in West Java, Indonesia and the arrival of modern tourism in the area. It studies whether an indigenous group endowed by various amazing tourism resources engages with tourism as a tactics to deal with policies excluding them for years. Contrasting to Friedman’s study on the early Hawaiian cultural movement which was anti-tourism, Kasepuhan Banten Kidul community living on Cipta gelar, an enclave area under Halimun-Salak National Park’s control,takes tourism as the opportunity to resist various dominations and to strengthen its cultural identity. Findings from participant’s observations and indepth interview show some changes are also inevitable. Engaging with modern tourism means the readiness to accommodate the arrival of various outside elements. However, the strategy has led local government to declare the area as part of major tourism destination in 2007. It means Sunda Wiwitan, an indigenous religion practiced by the community which is not officially recognized as a legal religion in Indonesia can be freely practiced in order to promote tourism. In this case, tourism is seen as one opportunity to establish a form of social movement in resisting dominations. Borrowing De Certeu, the community might have produced silent productivity to deal with larger authorities, including with its consequences in various ways.

This paper is intended to highlight roles that women can and likely will play in shaping the future of NDE 4.0, from execution to leadership levels as well as from development to transformation activities. As we build momentum toward adopting Industry 4.0 into the nondestructive evaluation (NDE) domain, we face multiple challenges such as technology standardization, talent and skills shortfall, massive transformation, and regulatory and certification standards (Singh 2019, 2020a). Many of these challenges are better addressed with a proper mix of gender in responsible teams. Women in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields are a source of talent that can be harnessed as digitalization becomes a major part of the NDE sector. According to a recent Forbes article, traits like listening and empathy serve women well in “change leadership,” which is the ability to influence and inspire action in others and respond with vision and agility during periods of growth, disruption, or uncertainty to bring about the needed change (Lipkin 2019). While working the innovation value chain, emotional intelligence makes women better suited to capturing marketplace insight and easing friction in technology adoption, and a balance of gender in a team makes for more productive ideation sessions for effective problem-solving and objective execution. This paper presents literature research triggered by personal experience and substantiated by recent candid conversations with women leaders in NDE, to highlight the importance of a blended and balanced gender mix required for NDE 4.0.

ABSTRAKSI: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan peranan seorang seniman bernama Ateng Japar dalam mengembangkan seni pertunjukan Longser di Kabupaten Bandung, Jawa Barat, Indonesia, dari tahun 1975-2002. Masalah utama yang dibahas adalah bagaimana dinamika perkembangan seni pertunjukan Longser pada masa Ateng Japar, 1975-2002. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu metode historis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Longser merupakan seni teater rakyat yang hidup di daerah Priangan, khususnya di Kabupaten Bandung. Longser seringkali disebut sebagai seni sandiwara rakyat yang banyak menampilkan tarian-tarian berpasangan dan memberikan kesempatan kepada para penonton untuk menari bersama dengan penarinya. Pada tahun 1939, Ateng Japar mendirikan kelompok Longser yang diberi nama “Pancawarna”. Awalnya, kelompok ini melakukan pertunjukan dengan cara mengamen, namun memasuki tahun 1970-an terjadi peralihan tempat pertunjukan, yakni kedalam gedung kesenian. Pada tahun 2002, sang seniman Ateng Japar diberitakan wafat dan hal ini berdampak pada perkembangan Longser yang semakin meredup. Selain itu, masuknya pengaruh globalisasi yang diikuti oleh perubahan zaman yang semakin maju dan modern, pada akhirnya membuat seni pertunjukan Longser yang masih bertahan hingga saat ini kurang mendapat tempat di hati masyarakat luas. Eksistensi Longser semakin diperparah ketika sebagian masyarakat, terutama dari kalangan generasi muda, masih banyak yang belum mengetahui tentang seni pertunjukan Longser. KATA KUNCI: Longser, teater rakyat, Ateng Japar, perubahan zaman, dan pengaruh globalisasi. ABSTRACT: “Ateng Japar: The Legend of Longser Performing Arts and His Roles in Bandung Regency, 1975 - 2002”. This study aims to explain the role of an artist named Ateng Japar in developing the performing arts of Longser in Bandung regency, West Java, Indonesia, in the period of 1975-2002. The main issue discussed is the development of Longser performing arts organized by Ateng Japar from 1975-2002. The method used in this research is the historical method. The results showed that Longser is the art of theater folks who live in the Priangan region, especially in Bandung regency. Longser, often referred to as a theatrical art, displays many folk dances in pairs and provide an opportunity for the audience to dance along with the dancers. In 1939, Ateng Japar established a Longser group named “Pancawarna” (five colours). Initially, this group performed by singing, but by the 1970s, there was a shift in the venue into an art gallery. In 2002, the artist Ateng Japar passed away, and his death negatively affected the development of Longser. Besides, the influence of globalization followed by a change of more advanced and modern age, eventually, makes the performing arts of Longser, although still survives today, less appreciated by the wider community. The existence of Longser is threatened when most people, especially the younger generations, do not know about the Longser.KEY WORD: Longser, people theater, Ateng Japar, change of time, and influence of globalization.<img src="/public/site/images/wirta/08.april_.upi_.ok_.jpg" alt="" />About the Author: Apriliani Hardiyanti Hariyono, S.Pd. adalah Alumni Departemen Pendidikan Sejarah FPIPS UPI (Fakultas Pendidikan Ilmu Pengetahuan Sosial, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia), Jalan Dr. Setiabudhi No.229 Bandung 40154, Jawa Barat, Indonesia.

Sustainability Challenges

Salmon is the most consumed farmed seafood in the EU and there is no indication that demand will abate. Yet salmon aquaculture’s environmental impacts are significant, and its future is likely to be shaped by demands of increased but at the same time more sustainable production. This study developed an integrated theoretical framework based on the multi-level perspective (MLP) and a global value chain (GVC) governance framework and applied it to the global farmed salmon value chain. The objective was to provide insights on the most likely transition pathway towards sustainability based on industry and expert perspectives. The perceptions on challenges and drivers of change, were gathered through focus groups and in-depth interviews, and fitted to the integrated framework to facilitate the transition pathway analysis. Viewing the qualitative findings in the context of the MLP framework provided information about the current workings of the system, the drivers of change in the socio-technical landscape and niche-innovations and their potential to challenge or enhance the current system and thus indicated possible system transitions. To emphasize the role of industry actors in shaping the future of the salmon value chain, the analysis was strengthened using the GVC model which added information about power relations, signaling the ability of system actors to motivate or resist change. The findings indicate that, due to resistance in the regime and the fact that niche-innovations are not yet sufficiently developed, the farmed salmon value chain will continue to be predominated by traditional sea-based aquaculture but that there will be a gradual shift towards more diversity in terms of production methods in response to landscape pressures. The discussion addresses sustainability challenges and policy implications for the farmed salmon value chain and highlights the need for a food system perspective.

Medium Enterprises

Creative industries including its subsector handicraft, is very potential to be developed, because Indonesia is rich in culture heritage. Creative industries is largely related to a group of micro , small and medium enterprises which are mostly located in rural areas . Industry has entered the era of globalization which is rapidly developed, so that the role of UKM (small&medium enterprises) in handicraft as a part of the creative industries to achieve welfare society should be developed. The appropriate strategic planning will spur the development of this industry. Mendong craft is one of the creative industry subsector that exists in Sleman. Methods of analysis is using value chain and SWOT analysis. From the data, it is found that mendong craft is a cultured asset that deserve to be developed. Mendong, as the material for the weaved craft is an abundant local natural asset, but a lack of interest from the local community to develop this industry brings less quantity of product that is produced. This craft is still less touched so that it has limitation in creation/ design, production,commerlialization, and distribution. The reality is that the entrepreneurs are afraid to enter the global marked caused by anxiousness about the inability to fulfill demanded quantity.
