Praktik Pembangunan: Paradigma dan Realitasnya Dalam Konteks Sumatera Utara

Pada dasarnya pembangunan sebagai upaya untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat merupakan kegiatan pemanfaatan sumber daya alam dan lingkungan hidup akan berdampak pada perubahan fungsi kehidupan. Dalam perspektif ini pembangunan disamakan dengan modernisasi (westernisasi) yaitu: pertumbuhan ekonomi, runtuhnya ikatan-ikatan tradisional dalam masyarakat, industrialisasi dan terbukanya pasar-pasar lokal (globalisasi). Oleh karena itu, tata kelola dan cara-cara dalam membangun akan menentukan besaran dampak yang akan terjadi pada keberlanjutan kehidupan dimasa yang akan datang. Buku ini berfokus dalam membahas pembangunan yang berkeadilan dalam kasus praktik pembangunan di Sumatera Utara dipilih karena bentuknya tangible, menempati aspek ruang dan waktu sehingga bersinggungan erat dengan isu pelayanan publik, sosial dan lingkungan, dan menyentuh banyak aspek unsur keadilan. Berdasarkan pengalaman dan pengamatan penulis suatu keadilan memang mudah untuk dituliskan dan dirumuskan. Sayangnya, keadilan juga tidak mudah untuk dilaksanakan, direalisasikan, dikoordinasikan, dan diperjuangkan.

Where not so long ago professors "owned" the tools of scholarship, controlled the labor process, and certified the quality of our product, the process of McDonaldization has torn this relation asunder. Rapidly increasing student faculty ratios, mass classes, and the use of low-wage teaching assistants and adjunct faculty have changed the job of professor (p. 64 ff.). Faculty are pressured to recruit and retain students seen as "customers" (p. 67) and to compete with private for-profit [End Page 368] universities (p. 71-72).
