ICISPE 2019
Hosted by the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Diponegoro - Indonesia, International Conference on Indonesian Social and Political Enquiries (ICISPE) serves as a strategic venue for academicians and practitioners whose interest is Indonesian social and political studies to get interconnected with other academicians and other fields of study. It is also intended to be a venue for scholars from various backgrounds to connect and initiate collaborative and interdisciplinary studies. The papers presented at the ICISPE provide research findings and recommendations that are both directly and indirectly beneficial for public needs, especially policy makers and practitioners in ...
ICISPE 2021
We proudly present the proceedings of 6th International Conference on Social and Political Enquiries 2021 (ICISPE 2021) with the main theme The Politics of Pandemics: Governing Social and Communal Resilience in Times of Crises. It focuses on the relation of policy and global network, regional integration, pandemics regulation, human security, and local government. These issues are important today, not only globally, but also Indonesia nationally to the local level. There are several important issues relating to this, both institutionally and the relationships between individuals and groups in supporting the agenda in managing the pandemics. More than 130 manuscripts were presented at this conference; around 60 of which are selected to be published in proceedings. We hope by this conference, discussions on the importance of sustainable development will increasingly become an important concern together and bring better response from the government and social relations for development.
Acceleration Strategy for Maritime and Border Area
The relationship between social humanities studies and the study of border areas is inseparable from the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), which establishes a comprehensive law and order regime in the world's oceans and oceans that establishes rules governing all use of the oceans and their resources. So, this book is a reflection based on the theme of Acceleration Strategy for Maritime and Border Area. Chapters in this book discuss various perspectives in seeing maritime and border areas as one unit. The thinking in this book gave birth to innovative concepts and theories based on the original situation in the field, especially the border and sea areas in the Riau Islands.
Susceptibility in Development
Susceptibility in Development offers a novel approach to understanding power in development through theories of affect and emotion. Development agents - people tasked with designing or delivering development - are susceptible to being affected in ways that may derail or threaten their 'sense of self'. This susceptibility is in direct relation to the capacity of others to engender feelings in development agents: an overlooked form of power. Susceptibility in Development proposes a new analytical framework to enable new readings of power relations and their consequences for development. Susceptibility in Development offers a comparative ethnography of two types of local development agents: vol...
Religious Sensibilities in Pursuit of Sexual Well-Being
The self-identifying Ghanaian-Dutch and Somali-Dutch communities residing in the Randstad area of the Netherlands are deeply impacted by religious beliefs and cultural factors in their approach towards sexual health practices, well-being and pleasure. This book shows how religious sensibilities shape the physical activities, beauty practices, and gendered roles that are adopted into the daily lives of these communities in pursuit of their sexual and general well-being. Through an ethnographic account, it explores and challenges the assumptions held around the complex relationship between religion and sexuality.
The Politics of Citizenship in Indonesia
This book highlights the gains that a citizenship approach offers to the study of democracy in Indonesia, demonstrating that the struggle for citizenship and the historical development of democracy in the country are closely interwoven. The book arises from a research agenda aiming to help Indonesia’s democracy activists by unpacking citizenship as it is produced and practiced through movements against injustice, taking the shape of struggles by people at grassroots levels for cultural recognition, social and economic injustice, and popular representation. Such struggles in Indonesia have engaged with the state through both discursive and non-discursive processes. The authors show that whi...
Configuring Contagion
Expanding our understanding of contagion beyond the typical notions of infection and pandemics, this book widens the field to include the concept of biosocial epidemics. The chapters propose varied and detailed answers to questions about epidemics and their contagious potential for specific infections and non-infectious conditions. Together they explore how inseparable social and biological processes configure co-existing influences, which create epidemics, and in doing so stress the role of social inequality in these processes. The authors compellingly show that epidemics do not spread evenly in populations or through simple coincidental biological contagion: they are biosocially structured and selective, and happen under specific economic, political and environmental conditions. This volume illustrates that an understanding of biosocial factors is vital for ensuring effective strategies for the containment of epidemics.
Democracy for Sale
Democracy for Sale is an on-the-ground account of Indonesian democracy, analyzing its election campaigns and behind-the-scenes machinations. Edward Aspinall and Ward Berenschot assess the informal networks and political strategies that shape access to power and privilege in the messy political environment of contemporary Indonesia. In post-Suharto Indonesian politics the exchange of patronage for political support is commonplace. Clientelism, argue the authors, saturates the political system, and in Democracy for Sale they reveal the everyday practices of vote buying, influence peddling, manipulating government programs, and skimming money from government projects. In doing so, Aspinall and ...
Viral Loads
Drawing upon the empirical scholarship and research expertise of contributors from all settled continents and from diverse life settings and economies, Viral Loads illustrates how the COVID-19 pandemic, and responses to it, lay bare and load onto people’s lived realities in countries around the world. A crosscutting theme pertains to how social unevenness and gross economic disparities are shaping global and local responses to the pandemic, and illustrate the effects of both the virus and efforts to contain it in ways that amplify these inequalities. At the same time, the contributions highlight the nature of contemporary social life, including virtual communication, the nature of communit...
Citizenship in Indonesia
Kewarganegaraan hadir kembali di Indonesia. Orde Baru berupaya sebaik mungkin untuk mengebiri konsep ini dengan menggambarkannya semata sebagai kewajiban yang harus dipatuhi. Namun, demokrasi membuat orang awam menyadari bahwa mereka pun memiliki hak. Dalam buku ini, kami tidak akan melakukan 'pendidikan kewarganegaraan'. Alih-alih, kami ingin melihat bagaimana orang Indonesia biasa mempraktikkan kewarganegaraan dalam keseharian. Apa yang mereka lakukan? Apa yang mereka yakini? Berfokus pada kewarganegaraan adalah suatu perubahan dari menyalahkan atau memuji kaum elite untuk semua hal yang terjadi di negara ini. Pada kenyataannya, jika demokrasi berjalan dengan baik, maka hal itu terjadi kar...
