""Slum" is among the most evocative and judgmental words of the modern world. It originated in the slang language of the world's then-largest city, London, early in the nineteenth century. Its use thereafter proliferated, and its original meanings unraveled as colonialism and urbanization transformed the world, and as prejudice against those disadvantaged by these transformations became entrenched. Cuckoo-like, "slum" overtook and transformed other local idioms: for example, bustee, favela, kampong, shack. "Slum" once justified heavy-handed redevelopment schemes that tore apart poor but viable neighborhoods. Now it underpins schemes of neighbourhood renewal that, seemingly benign in their in...

Buku ini merupakan penyatuan dua bunga rampai esai karya Abdul Wachid B.S. yang telah terbit sebelumnya, yakni Sastra Pencerahan (2005) dan Membaca Makna dari Chairil Anwar ke A. Mustofa Bisri (2005). Buku ini hadir sebagai satu ikatan atas gagasan-gagasan mengenai dunia kesusastraan di Indonesia dari seorang penyair yang juga seorang akademisi sastra. Buku pertama berisi esai-esai yang merespons persoalan-persoalan sastra di Indonesia yang kontekstual dengan kondisi sosial politik era Orde Baru. Buku kedua berisi esai analisis mengenai perpuisian modern para penyair di Indonesia. Judul Sastra Pencerahan untuk penerbitan edisi kedua ini dipilih justru bermaksud untuk didiskusikan, sebab sebagian besar esai di sini merupakan gambaran bagaimana karya sastra menjadi bagian penting dari upaya pencerahan suatu zaman, dan boleh jadi, pada gilirannya, sastra kemudian juga perlu dicerahkan melalui kritik yang bernas.
A persistent challenge infects the vast setting of academic pursuits; the enduring gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Despite incremental progress, women continue to face formidable obstacles, ranging from entrenched stereotypes to institutional oversights. The urgency of addressing this issue cannot be overstated, as evidenced by UNESCO's revelation that less than 30% of the world's researchers and scientists are women. Exploring Intersectionality and Women in STEM seizes this pivotal moment, unraveling the complexities of the gender gap in STEM and daring to propose transformative solutions. This book is not just an analysis of disparities; it is a dynamic and initiative-taking guide for researchers, STEM students, and practitioners. By immersing oneself in its pages, the reader becomes an agent of change, armed with insights into life sciences, physical sciences, engineering, mathematics, computer science, and health sciences. Through a transdisciplinary lens, the book illuminates a path toward a more inclusive and equitable future.

The Covid-19 pandemic has changed our activities, like teaching, researching, and socializing. We are confused because we haven’t experienced before. However, as Earth's smartest inhabitants, we can adapt new ways to survive the pandemic without losing enthusiasm. Therefore, even in pandemic conditions, we can still have scientific discussions, even virtually. The main theme of this symposium is "Reinforcement of the Sustainable Development Goals Post Pandemic" as a part of the masterplan of United Nations for sustainable development goals in 2030. This symposium is attended by 348 presenters from Indonesia, Malaysia, UK, Scotland, Thailand, Taiwan, Tanzania and Timor Leste which published 202 papers. Furthermore, we are delighted to introduce the proceedings of the 2nd Borobudur Symposium Borobudur on Humanities and Social Sciences 2020 (2nd BIS-HSS 2020). We hope our later discussion may result transfer of experiences and research findings from participants to others and from keynote speakers to participants. Also, we hope this event can create further research network.
