E-Government dan Pelayanan Publik
Buku ini berisikan kumpulan tulisan yang bertemakan Internet of Things yang dibahas melalui sudut pandang ilmu sosial dan ilmu politik. Buku ini terbagi ke dalam subtopik, yaitu transparansi informasi dan upaya dalam pemberdayaan masyarakat, keterbukaan informasi dan peningkatan akuntabilitas terhadap masyarakat, penguatan e-government sebagai landasan pelayanan publik yang lebih baik, dan penerapan smart city sebagai upaya peningkatan kualitas hidup masyarakat.
Transparansi Informasi dan Keterlibatan Masyarakat di Era Internet
Becermin dari ketertinggalan Indonesia, khususnya Bali, dalam penguasaan dan pemanfaatan IoT dan literasi digital secara lebih mendalam, kami berusaha menggabungkan bidang-bidang keilmuan kami untuk menyusun buku ini. Kami berharap buku ini bisa menjadi semacam pintu gerbang untuk pemahaman mengenai fenomena digitalisasi dan internetisasi segala aspek kehidupan manusia di era ini. Beberapa bagian buku ini memang terkesan mengandung istilahistilah teknis seputar teknologi informasi. Oleh karena itu, buku ini kiranya lebih cocok untuk mereka yang memang telah memiliki landasan pemahaman terhadap IoT, teknologi dan internet. Namun demikian, kami tentu berharap dengan hadirnya buku ini, semakin banyak literatur tentang IoT dan literasi digital yang tersuguhkan di hadapan pembaca yang budiman.

Tourism and Water
This book provides a systematic and comprehensive guide to the current state of knowledge on tourism and water. It is the first book to thoroughly examine the interrelationships of tourism and water use based on global, regional and business perspectives. Its assessment of tourism's global impact along with its overviews of sectoral and management approaches will provide a benchmark by which the water sustainability of tourism will be measured for years to come. In making a clear case for greater awareness and enhanced water management in the tourism sector, it is hoped that the book will contribute to the wise and sustainable use of this critical resource. The book is interdisciplinary in coverage and international in scope. It is designed as essential reading for not only students of tourism but also practitioners.
Tourism Impacts, Planning and Management
Tourism Impacts, Planning and Management is a unique text, which links these three key areas of tourism: impacts, planning and management. Tourism impacts are multi-faceted and therefore are difficult to plan for and manage. This book looks at all the key players involved - be they tourists, host communities or industry members - and considers a number of approaches and techniques for managing tourism successfully. Divided into four parts, this text discusses: * The growth, development and impacts of tourism * Tourism planning and management: concepts, issues and key players * Tools and techniques in tourism planning and management: education, regulation and information technology * The future of tourism planning and management: issues of sustainability and the future Up-to-date, international case studies are used, for example the impacts of 9/11 and terrorism in Bali, to illustrate and provide a real-life context for the theories discussed. Exercises are also included to consolidate learning.
Questioning Modernity in Indonesia and Malaysia
Processes of transformation typically defined as "modernising" have been pervasive in Indonesia and Malaysia over an extended period of time and have played a central role in shaping the societies of both countries. Questioning Modernity in Indonesia and Malaysia engages critically with the concept of modernity considering the way it has been used in the analysis of cultural, social, economic and political processes in the two countries. The book argues that while Indonesia and Malaysia can both be considered fully modern, their modernities are not merely derivative of the Western understanding of the word. Written by scholars from both "inside" and "outside" the region, the case studies pre...
Tourism, Tourists and Society
Tourism, Tourists and Society provides a broad introduction to the inter-relationship between tourism and society, making complex sociological concepts and themes accessible to readers from a non-sociological academic background. It provides a thorough exploration of how society influences or shapes the behaviours, motivations, attitudes and consumption of tourists, as well as the tourism impacts on destination societies. The fifth edition has been fully revised and updated to reflect recent data, concepts and academic debates: • New content on: mobilities paradigm and the emotional dimension of tourist experiences. • New chapter: Tourism and the Digital Revolution, looking at the ways in which the Internet and mobile technology transform both tourist behaviour and the tourist experience. • New end-of-chapter further reading and discussion topics. Accessible yet critical in style, this book offers students an invaluable introduction to tourism, tourists and society.
Culture, Multiculture, Postculture
In the 1990s, we are witnessing the influence of cultural signs and symbols that serve to divide humanity into discrete, often conflicting "cultural groups." What brought about this focus on culture? And what should we make of the current importance of cultural politics? In this assured and accessible text, author Joel S. Kahn argues that the idea of difference is of fundamental importance in debates on culture, multiculture, and postculture. He argues for a view of culture and its affiliated forms that is thoroughly based on history. Richly illustrated with resources from fiction and real-life, this volume fully represents the many-sided and ubiquitous place of culture in social life. It shows how cultural distinctions shape our relations to reality and imagination. Culture, Multiculture, and Postculture also addresses globalization, but it avoids the conceits of postmodernism by insisting that differences have not "withered" away, declaring that globalization has, in fact, multiplied cultural differences and diversities.
The Future of Nature
This anthology provides an historical overview of the scientific ideas behind environmental prediction and how, as predictions about environmental change have been taken more seriously and widely, they have affected politics, policy, and public perception. Through an array of texts and commentaries that examine the themes of progress, population, environment, biodiversity and sustainability from a global perspective, it explores the meaning of the future in the twenty-first century. Providing access and reference points to the origins and development of key disciplines and methods, it will encourage policy makers, professionals, and students to reflect on the roots of their own theories and practices.
