LITERATURE AS CULTURAL ECOLOGY: A CULTURAL ECOLOGICAL STUDY ON EMERSON AND WHITMAN

This article is intended to find out how a cultural ecological reading is possible for the selected poems of Emerson and Whitman who are considered as the leading figures of the nineteenth century American Renaissance, the artistic spirit which has flourished between the 1830s-1860s in the wake of the Romantic movement. Transcendentalism in America, as a projection of English Romanticism and Christian Unitarianism interprets the organic interaction in-between man, nature and god. Giving the earliest examples of Transcendentalist nature-writing, Emerson and Whitman are open for a cultural-ecological reading because cultural ecology as a new direction in ecocriticism, brings together ecology and aesthetics, nature and man, environment and literature, language and culture in other words human and non-human universes. As an inter-disciplinary theory developing in a dynamic way, cultural ecology, according to Zapf, “can be described as the interrelation of three major discursive functions such as the ‘culture-critical metadiscourse,’ ‘an imaginative counter-discourse,’ and a ‘reintegrative interdiscourse’” (Zapf 2016: 96). In the first model, the artistic work is analyzed to reveal the workings of an oppressive ideological structure and dogmatic values of the society whereas the second one points out the representations of otherness and marginalization within a text and finally last one tries to exemplify the co-evolution of both models in searching for the “transformative role of literature” within “eco-semiotic” discourse. In that sense, this article intends to find out how the poetic examples of Emerson and Whitman fit into the triadic model of cultural ecology. The argument proceeds through the illustration of Zapf’s triadic model in Emerson’s “Hamatreya,” and Whitman’s “The Splendid, Silent Sun.”

Analisis Semiotika Foto Jurnalistik: Evakuasi Orang Utan Sekarat Karya Jessica Helena Wuysang

This study aims to determine the meaning contained in the journalistic photo by Jessica Helena Wuysang which is published on the AntaraFoto website. As is well known, photojournalism is an image taken by a photographer or journalist for press publishing needs. Independent photojournalism is not only for complementary text. A picture can tell a lot more than a story. This study used Charles Sanders Pierce's semiotic analysis method to examine photos of dying orangutans in Kalimantan. Pierce's semiotics is used to determine signs through the triadic model and its tricotonomic concepts, namely representament (sign), object and interpretant. The results of the study show that the object in the photo describes an orangutan who is in pain due to burns. Then, the interpretation is that orangutan is a rare animal, there is still someone who wants to help an orangutan who is in pain, namely a medical officer. In addition, the meaning that can be taken is to make a lesson for all audiences in Indonesia not to carelessly burn land that is occupied by rare wildlife. If the orang-utan as an umbrella species really ceases to exist, the ecosystem life and diversity that exists around it will be threatened.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui makna yang terdapat didalam foto jurnalistik karya Jessica Helena Wuysang yang dimuat di website AntaraFoto. Seperti diketahui foto jurnalistik merupakan gambar yang diambil oleh juru foto ataupun jurnalis untuk kebutuhan penerbitan pers. Foto jurnalistik bersifat Independen bukan hanya untuk pelengkap teks. Sebuah gambar dapat bercerita lebih banyak dibandingkan sebuah tulisan berita. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Analisis Semiotika Charles Sanders Pierce untuk meneliti foto orang utan sekarat yang ada di Kalimantan. Semiotika Pierce dipakai untuk mengetahui tanda-tanda melalui model triadic serta konsep trikotonominya, yaitu representament (sign), object dan intepretant. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa objek didalam foto tersebut menjelaskan orang utan yang sedang kesakitan akibat luka bakar, Lalu, interpretannya adalah orang utan termasuk hewan langka, masih ada seseorang yang ingin membantu orang utan yang sedang kesakitan yaitu petugas medis. Selain itu, Makna yang bisa di ambil adalah menjadikan sebuah pembelajaran oleh semua kalangan khalayak yang ada di Indonesia untuk tidak sembarangan untuk membakar lahan yang ditempati oleh satwa liar langka. Jika orang utan sebagai spesies payung benar-benar tidak ada lagi maka kehidupan ekosistem maupun keanekaragaman yang ada di sekitarnya akan terancam.

Reverse logistics uncertainty in a courier industry: a triadic model

PurposeDue to increasing supply chain complexity, the supply chain uncertainty has become an imperative issue, which hinders the development of modern logistics and supply chain management. The paper attempts to conceptualize reverse logistics uncertainty from supply chain uncertainty literature and present the types of reverse logistics uncertainty in a triadic model.Design/methodology/approachThe concept of reverse logistics uncertainty is developed based on a triadic model of logistics uncertainty and supply chain uncertainty literature. A desk research is conducted to develop a taxonomy of reverse logistics uncertainty. To better depict the reverse logistics uncertainty, we use case studies to discuss the types of reverse logistics uncertainty in the triadic model.FindingsThe study reveals four types of supply chain uncertainties in the reverse logistics. We call them reverse logistics uncertainty. Type-A and Type-B uncertainty are new types of supply chain uncertainty in the reverse logistics.Research limitations/implicationsThe types of reverse logistics uncertainty have not been empirically validated in industries. Especially, the two new types including Type-A and Type-B reverse uncertainty need further exploration.Originality/valueAlthough reverse logistics has been discussed in the past decades, very few studies have been conducted on the supply chain uncertainty in returns management arena. The paper offers valuable insights to better understand the supply chain uncertainty in the reverse logistics. This also provides suggestions for both managers and researchers to reflect on the reverse logistics uncertainty management and business sustainability.

Normal Bedfellows

This chapter discusses three concepts: separatism, organized crime, and the relation between the two. It begins by drawing on social scientific insights to dispel some common misconceptions about, in turn, separatist movements and mafias. By bridging two compartmentalized subfields, one discovers just how natural the connections between them are. Organized crime scholarship typically neglects separatist cases altogether or confounds them with nonseparatist ones. Yet today's globalized mafias have deep structural reasons to flourish, especially in torn states. Organized crime is notoriously embedded in extant community relations: patriarchal, occupational, residential, and above all, ethnic. The chapter then delineates two tools — a Simmelian triadic model of state-separatist-mafia relations, and typology of mafias across three regions — for explaining the phenomenon.
