Dharma Bakti Geografi

Di negeri ini, hampir mustahil dijumpai seseorang menekuni karier profesionalnya sejalan dengan bidang studi yang ia geluti. Sukendra Martha merupakan pengecualian.

Haji Tamatu

Haji Tamatu adalah buku yang menyuguhkan “wajah” lain dunia haji Tanah Air. Ditulis dengan gaya humor yang cerdas, kocak, ringan, dan asyik dibaca, buku ini bagai mata air informasi yang menyegarkan dahaga carut-marut perhajian. Tidak hanya sarat banyolan dan plesetan, tapi juga kaya sindiran dan kritik—tentu dengan bahasa yang tetap jenaka dan sederhana. Didasarkan pada pengalaman pribadi penulisnya sewaktu menjalani ibadah haji ONH biasa, buku ini memuat 99 catatan lucu dan menggelitik tentang haji: dari peristilahan, pengelolaan, hingga pelaksanaan ibadah haji; dari menjelang keberangkatan para jamaah menuju Tanah Suci hingga saat mereka hendak kembali ke Tanah Air. Jika Anda kerap “emosi” melihat wajah perhajian Indonesia, buku ini perlu Anda baca, supaya Anda bisa tertawa!

Masyarakat sosial berubah menjadi masyarakat digital dengan adanya dukungan teknologi informasi. Perubahan ini disebabkan dengan transisi dari masyarakat industri lama (old industrial society) menjadi global network society yang melibatkan aktivitas digital. TIK telah berkembang sejak tahun 1990an, terutama perkembangan teknologi informasi yang dapat menghubungkan dari seluruh pelosok dunia tanpa batasan ruang dan waktu (Kristiyono & Ida, 2019).

With attention to the ways in which new reproductive technologies facilitate the gradual disembodiment of reproduction, this book reveals the paradox of women's reproductive experience in patriarchal cultures as being both, and often simultaneously, empowering and disempowering. A rich exploration of birth appropriation in the West, New Reproductive Technologies and Disembodiment investigates the assimilation of women's embodied power into patriarchal systems of symbolism, culture and politics through the inversion of women's and men's reproductive roles. Contending that new reproductive technologies represent another world historical moment, both in their forging of novel social relations a...

Changing Gender Roles

DeBiaggi focuses on recent Brazilian immigrant families. There are over 600,000 Brazilians in the U.S., the majority in metropolitan New York (230,000) and Boston (150.000). Drawing on the methods of cross-cultural and gender studies, DeBiaggi interviewed 50 Brazilian families, husbands and wives, in Boston. Using quantitative and qualitative data, she found that immigration to the U.S. affected both the husband's and the wife's gender roles as well as their relationship. Coming from a more patriarchal society, Brazilian families face changes in their attitudes towards women and in their division of household labor and childcare. In turn, these changes affect how satisfied husbands and wives are in their marriage. Finally, the study indicates the importance of women's rights to the development of fairer and more egalitarian relationships.

Political Participation in the United States

Analyzing patterns of citizen voting and political participation, Conway examines who the participants in our political process are, what they do, and what they hope to accomplish, whether their participation is the simple act of voting or the more demanding role of running for political office.
