Saifulloh, Ahmad. "Indonesian Pesantren: Creating ‘Good’ Citizens for Indonesia’s Multicultural Society." Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2021. https://hdl.handle.net/2123/27590.
Full textAbstract:
As an emerging democratic country, Indonesia faces notable challenges in building harmony and peace in its multicultural society. Many scholars have argued that educational institutions including pesantren can play a crucial role in addressing those challenges. More specifically pesantren citizenship education has the potential to create citizens who can address the potential challenges of multicultural societies. The primary aim of this study was to investigate conceptions of citizenship education; curriculum design for citizenship education; and the delivery of that curriculum in three types of Indonesian pesantren. While multiple case study and phenomenography were used as research design, Bronfenbrenner’s (1979) Ecological Systems Theory was employed as theoretical framework.
This study found that the conceptions of citizenship education were similar across pesantren. Distinct curriculum design for citizenship education was found in each pesantren, reflecting differences in attributes within the referential and structural aspects of the citizenship education conceptions across pesantren. However, each pesantren had a similar combination of formal, informal and hidden curricula. This model of curriculum was integrated into the pesantren’s environmental factors. Similar pedagogy was found in the delivery of the formal curriculum. Regarding the delivery of informal and hidden curriculum, the unique system of pesantren facilitated a more intricate curriculum implementation than is possible for other models of school.
One implication of this study is that religious citizenship education could be considered an alternative for Indonesia in addressing the challenges of a multicultural society. Also, educational institutions aiming to employ a comprehensive approach to their citizenship education might consider an ecological model of pesantren-based citizenship education as a reference.

Giblin, Susan Mary. "Being Chinese and Indonesian : Chinese organisations in post-Suharto Indonesia." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2003. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/653/.
Full textAbstract:
In 1998 Indonesia was on the verge of huge political changes. The economy was in crisis and President Suharto's thirty-two year New Order government was coming to an end. Violence, largely directed against the ethnic Chinese in a number of cities on the archipelago, accompanied the political and economic crises. The changes which unfolded led to peaceful elections in 1999, which were judged by international observers to be fair and democratic. These elections placed a new administration in power and with it the hopes of the people that reformasi (reform) would ensue. Immediately after Suharto stepped down things began to change for the ethnic Chinese who had never been fully accepted as Indonesian within Indonesian national discourses. Indeed the presence of ethnic Chinese in Indonesia was constructed as a problem; the "Chinese problem" (inasalah Cina). During the New Order, policy towards Chinese Indonesians was particularly harsh. They were not permitted to celebrate any aspect of their Chinese heritage and official policy dictated that they should assimilate into Indonesian society. This changed after 1998 and the debate about how Chinese Indonesians should behave, and how they should be treated, emerged once again. This thesis investigates a number of Chinese Indonesian organisations which were established or re-established after May 1998. I am particularly interested in how they are articulating both their Chinese and their Indonesian identities in this new climate. I argue that as a result of Indonesian national discourses which construct Chinese Indonesians as "outsiders", it may not be possible for the groups to achieve their joint aims of overcoming anti-Chinese stereotypes and having their Chinese heritage accepted within Indonesia. During the New Order years many ethnic Chinese were reluctant to declare themselves Chinese publicly, or speak about their experiences, which has led to a dearth of empirical material relating to how Chinese Indonesians themselves understand their identities. Therefore, this research is a particularly useful addition to the study of the ethnic Chinese in Indonesia.

Ida, Rachmah. "The construction of a particular version of the modern Indonesian women in contemporary Indonesian women's magazines." Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 1999. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/1248.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis analyses the representation of women in two women’s magazines in Indonesia. It compares and contrasts the representation of women under the New Order Regime (1966-1998) and the Reformasi (reformation) period (1998-1999) through an analysis of the content of Kartini and Femina, between 1992 and 1998. It seeks to understand how changes in the representation of women are specifically related to the social, economic, and political changes in Indonesia. Moreover, by analysing the cultural production of a particular popular media [women’s magazines], this study examines the explicit characteristics of Indonesian women that have been identified as “modern” in the transformation era of Indonesia.

Sinaga, Rifeald Romauli. "The Indonesian Government's Role in the Development of Corporate Social Responsibility in Indonesia." Thesis, Griffith University, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/10072/370832.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores the historical development of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Indonesia. Existing literature in the field is influenced by experiences in Western liberal democracies, where pressure from internal stakeholders leads to what is called a “bottom-up” approach; pressure that leads firms engaging in CSR for voluntary rather than mandated reasons. However, this research found that the adoption of CSR in Indonesia did not follow this Western trajectory. Instead, CSR developed from a “top-down” approach where the Indonesian Government acted as the key driver of change. Reflecting this, the enactment of the Company Act 2007 made Indonesia the first country in the world to explicitly require every company to undertake CSR activities. In exploring this unusual policy outcome, this research sought answers to the following research question:
Do theories about CSR that stem from Western democratic societies, which typically depict the drivers of CSR activity coming from below – with the company then voluntarily devising their own strategic CSR response – apply in developing societies?
In exploring answers to this question, this thesis adopts a historical approach, considering the changing role of the Indonesian government since 1945 with particular attention paid to the so-called New Order era (1965-98) and the Reformation era (1998-2015). This case study answers the questions utilising legitimacy theory, institutional theory, and stakeholder theory through analysis of relevant regulations, official statistics, document analysis interviews with key stakeholders, and analysis of company Annual Reports. This research found that at first, the Indonesian government initiated CSR activities through the policies pursued by State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) that have occupied a disproportionately important role in the Indonesia economy. Under the New Order era, CSR policies were mainly directed towards improving economic and social outcomes in agriculture, where Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) were the norm. As part of their activities, all SOEs were legally required to assist SMEs. The Indonesian government, both directly and indirectly, through the SOEs, was also the driver behind the extension of CSR to the local levels through measures directed towards the formation and operation of farm-based cooperatives. Under the Reformation era, however, the focus shifted to a legislative mandate. Since the issuance of Law No. 20/2008, all SOEs are required to perform social activities in accordance with the Partnership and Community Development Program or “Program Kemitraan dan Bina Lingkungan” (PKBL). As the Program’s title suggests, PKBL involves SOEs entering into “partnerships” with mostly small enterprises (mainly micro-enterprises). Since 2007, with the issuance of the Company Act, the Indonesian government has also required privately-owned firms to engage in CSR. As stated in the Indonesian Financial Accounting Standard (PSAK), all companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) must disclose their CSR activities in their Annual Reports. However, in examining the companies’ Annual Reports, this thesis found that only 401 of the 530 listed companies actually disclosed CSR activities in their Reports. Moreover, this research found that 90 percent of companies undertaking CSR activities were actually engaged in what can best considered as philanthropic forms of community development that are unlikely to have any transformative effect. Accordingly, this thesis concludes that although the Indonesian government has acted as the primary driver of CSR within the country, the benefits that are accruing at this stage are sub-optimal.
This thesis found that whereas research performed in Western democratic societies has focused on the influence of salient stakeholder in CSR activities, in Indonesia the power of stakeholder may not influence the company if the company has political connections that can mitigate this stakeholder power. Less powerful stakeholders may become beneficial to the company if a stakeholder can align itself with the company’s interest, such as building their reputation or gaining local acceptance.
The findings of this study contribute significantly to the extant research base on the development of CSR in Indonesia. An understanding of the Indonesian government’s social responsibility role helps fill the comparative void in the CSR historical literature dealing with developing societies.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

PhD thesis, Murdoch University, 2017. https://researchrepository.murdoch.edu.au/id/eprint/36854/.
Full textAbstract:
The most recent version of the Indonesian national curriculum requires teachers to embed cultural and religious values into all subject areas, including mathematics. This requirement poses a great challenge for mathematics teachers and their advisors in a multicultural nation such as Indonesia. As a mathematics educator in an Indonesian university, one of my key roles is to advise teachers of primary school level mathematics how to meet this challenge. This thesis constitutes an investigation into the question of which values I can and should draw on given my complex religious and cultural identity as a Muslim and an Indonesian.
To address this research question, I designed an integrative auto|ethnography within a multiparadigmatic research design space. This approach enabled me to explore how my religious and cultural identity governs my professional praxis as a mathematics educator while excavating the history of mathematics curriculum and Islamic schools in Indonesia. During this inquiry, I conducted interviews with experienced teachers and other key education stakeholders in Indonesia. While writing stories of my participants’ experiences, the narrative method of writing as inquiry enabled me to make visible the process of my own critical self-reflection as a mathematics educator and to express my subjectivity through poems and imagery.
As a result of this inquiry I consider myself to be a mathematics educator who holds religious and cultural identities and am committed to taking action to continue this self-discovery in my professional praxis, as well as to empower others. As an Indonesian, I have come to realise that my cultural identity has been formed by acculturating religious and local cultures. As a Muslim, I no longer believe in the dichotomy of Islamic and mathematical knowledge; rather, I recognise their concepts as having a harmonious relationship. As a mathematics educator, I will enable my fellow mathematics teachers to reflect on their religious practices and understandings. I conclude that Islamic, Indonesian and International (3Is) mathematics can sit side-by-side as contexts for mathematics problems, without one being dominant over the others.
Keywords: Islamic and Indonesian contexts in mathematics, Indonesian mathematics curriculum, integrative auto|ethnography, multiparadigmatic research design.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this research is to determine whether Indonesian business practices and culture inhibit the competitiveness of Australian small to medium enterprises in Indonesia. Prior to the current economic demise of the Indonesian economy, Australia's trade relations with its closest Asian neighbour were not as significant as trade with countries far removed from Australia's shores. Previous research has identified that cultural problems and inadequate communication contribute towards the lack of competitiveness of international small to medium enterprises.However there has been no rigorous and comprehensive research specially related to Australian entrepreneurs and the problems they encounter in Indonesia.Several key themes emerged from this study which indicated that thorough planning and market research are more important than a comprehensive understanding of business practices and culture. What the research brings to extant literature is a rigorous and methodological analysis of Indonesian business practices from an Australian entrepreneur's perspective. This provides a structured link between the parent disciple of cross cultural communications, the plethora of information on Asian business practices, and the reality of Australian small to medium enterprises attempting to enter the Indonesian marketDoctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Full textAbstract:
This thesis studies the response of the traditionalist Muslim groups of Minangkabau, Indonesia, to the modernist movement of the early decades of this century. In their effort to lay the foundations of a rational and progressive Muslim society and rediscovery the true ethics of Islam, the modernists had called for fresh ijtihad. The traditionalists rejected the possibility, or necessity, of new ijtihad and insisted that Islam had been perfectly articulated in the authoritative works of the scholars, especially those of the four schools of law, and that every Muslim must simply adhere to them. The traditionalists argued that the methods of the modernists' not only endangered the authority of the four schools, they threatened to undermine the age-old notion of a harmonious balance between Islam and adat, the two ideological foundations of Minangkabau society. To the traditionalists, therefore, the struggle against the modernists was at once a defense of the classical schools of law and of the harmony of Islam and adat in Minangkabau.

Full textAbstract:
How democratisation affects a state's foreign policy is a relatively neglected problem in International Relations. In Indonesia's case, there is a limited, but growing, body of literature examining the country's foreign policy in the post-authoritarian context. Yet this scholarship has tended to focus on the role of Indonesia's legislature and civil society organisations as newly-empowered foreign policy actors. Scholars of Southeast Asian politics, meanwhile, have concentrated on the effects of Indonesia's democratisation on regional integration and, in particular, on ASEAN cohesion and its traditional sovereignty-based norms. For the most part, the literature has completely ignored the effects of democratisation on Indonesia's foreign ministry – the principal institutional actor responsible for foreign policy formulation and conduct of Indonesia's diplomacy. Moreover, the effect of Indonesia's democratic transition on key bilateral relationships has received sparse treatment in the literature. This thesis aims to fill the gap in the literature by analysing the impact of democratisation on Indonesia's foreign ministry, and on Indonesia's approach to key bilateral and multilateral relationships in the Asia-Pacific – China, ASEAN and Australia respectively. This thesis argues that the domestic context in which Indonesia's foreign policy is framed has been transformed since reformasi. A conscious attempt has been made by policy-makers to internalise democratic values, such as good governance and human rights, into the ideational basis of Indonesia's foreign policy.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Full textAbstract:
[Truncated abstract] The 1974 Indonesian Marriage Law required all divorces to be ratified by courts and vested household leadership with husbands. This thesis examines the impact of this law upon the negotiation of divorce, and its implications for the constitution of state and social power. I argue that the New Order state used this law to attempt to control gender relations and reinforce political legitimacy, but that women and men resisted this project in a variety of ways. Divorce may entail the contestation of state ideological prescriptions on gender. It also reveals gender relations operating independently of the state. As such, it is a particularly fruitful site for an analysis of the location and constitution of state and social power. In order to analyse the complex relationship between marriage, divorce, and power, I have adopted several original strategies. I expand the definition of property to encompass

Thesis, Uppsala universitet, Institutionen för pedagogik, didaktik och utbildningsstudier, 2020. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-415484.
Full textAbstract:
The sociological tools of Margaret Somers are employed to dissect Indonesian high school history teachers' narratives about teaching controversial history of post-independence Indonesian communism. Twelve semi-structured interviews form a qualitative foundation to generate analysis on history teachers' stories about what enables the entanglement of alternative narratives of Indonesian communism in their teachings. This current study explores how various stories influence the teachers' standpoints on it. Moreover, the study highlights the socio-historical context of how their standpoints were formed. Empirical findings in this study suggest that the teachers draw on different narratives that navigate them to teach alternative versions, in order to counterbalance the mainstream story of Indonesian communism in school textbooks and the history curriculum. However, for some teachers, it is more challenging to teach a subject on Indonesian communism in line with their standpoints. The ease and challenges in teaching controversial history vary since each teacher is embedded in different relationships. Therefore, the social context of their teachings is also discussed.

Ritonga, Mara. "Exploration of metaphors used by Indonesian legislators and political elites in the Indonesian sociopolitical domain." Thesis, Aston University, 2014. http://publications.aston.ac.uk/24451/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the ways Indonesian politicians exploit the rhetorical power of metaphors in the Indonesian political discourse. The research applies the Conceptual Metaphor Theory, Metaphorical Frame Analysis and Critical Discourse Analysis to textual and oral data. The corpus comprises: 150 political news articles from two newspapers (Harian Kompas and Harian Waspada, 2010-2011 edition), 30 recordings of two television news and talk-show programmes (TV-One and Metro-TV), and 20 interviews with four legislators, two educated persons and two laymen. For this study, a corpus of written bahasa Indonesia was also compiled, which comprises 150 texts of approximately 439,472 tokens. The data analysis shows the potential power of metaphors in relation to how politicians communicate the results of their thinking, reasoning and meaning-making through language and discourse and its social consequences. The data analysis firstly revealed 1155 metaphors. These metaphors were then classified into the categories of conventional metaphor, cognitive function of metaphor, metaphorical mapping and metaphor variation. The degree of conventionality of metaphors is established based on the sum of expressions in each group of metaphors. Secondly, the analysis revealed that metaphor variation is influenced by the broader Indonesian cultural context and the natural and physical environment, such as the social dimension, the regional, style and the individual. The mapping system of metaphor is unidirectionality. Thirdly, the data show that metaphoric thought pervades political discourse in relation to its uses as: (1) a felicitous tool for the rhetoric of political leaders, (2) part of meaning-making that keeps the discourse contexts alive and active, and (3) the degree to which metaphor and discourse shape the conceptual structures of politicians‟ rhetoric. Fourthly, the analysis of data revealed that the Indonesian political discourse attempts to create both distance and solidarity towards general and specific social categories accomplished via metaphorical and frame references to the conceptualisations of us/them. The result of the analysis shows that metaphor and frame are excellent indicators of the us/them categories which work dialectically in the discourse. The acts of categorisation via metaphors and frames at both textual and conceptual level activate asymmetrical concepts and contribute to social and political hierarchical constructs, i.e. WEAKNESS vs. POWER, STUDENT vs. TEACHER, GHOST vs. CHOSEN WARRIOR, and so on. This analysis underscores the dynamic nature of categories by documenting metaphorical transfers between, i.e. ENEMY, DISEASE, BUSINESS, MYSTERIOUS OBJECT and CORRUPTION, LAW, POLITICS and CASE. The metaphorical transfers showed that politicians try to dictate how they categorise each other in order to mobilise audiences to act on behalf of their ideologies and to create distance and solidarity.

Full textAbstract:
[Truncated abstract] The aim of this thesis is to describe and analyze how Indonesian female teen magazines represent Indonesian adolescents. Female teen magazines are an important source of information on how gender is constructed in Indonesia. The thesis will contribute modestly not only to knowledge in the immediate fields of gender relations and adolescence in Indonesia but also to the wider body of literature on the relationships among gender, capitalism and patriarchy and the role of print media in shaping these relationships. Consequently, I place my discussion of how adolescents are presented in Indonesian female teen magazines within a larger context of global-local interaction at the national level. This research places Indonesian female teen magazines within the wider genre of women’s magazines. Most of the research on female magazines is focused on women rather than female adolescents, but because gender relations in society cut across the generations, this research is relevant to the study of magazines for female adolescents. Theories about women’s magazines provide insight into women’s magazines as a forum of expression that reflects gender and power relations in society. Teen magazines exist due to the rising significance of Indonesian adolescents. Indonesian adolescents emerged as a significant social group because of the course of national history and the state’s national development. Adolescence in this thesis is not treated as a biological stage of human physical development, but as the result of changes in the perception and treatment of young people by the society in which they appear. In the analysis I use Merry White’s argument with regards to marketing strategies to adolescents. I claim that Indonesian female teen magazines often have a conflicting double agenda in representing adolescents.¹Teen magazines have to make money for publishers and advertisers in order to achieve their own financial security and, at the same time, these magazines have to acknowledge local values in order to be accepted by the society. For marketing purpose, adolescents in teen magazines are represented as a modern social group. Modernity in the magazines is associated with a globalized western popular culture. My particular interest is to explore to what extent and in what ways western influences (as the standard of modernity) are employed to construct representations of female adolescents. I argue that the ways the magazines construct their own ideals of the “west” are related to the ways they construct images of Indonesian female adolescents. The magazines portray local adolescents emulating western performance and appearance

Full textAbstract:
The Sustainable Development Goal n°7 is calling for a prompt response to guarantee affordable and clean energy for all. While the electrification rate is rapidly increasing around the world, much work still remains to achieve electricity access in remote areas or Non-Interconnected Zones, such as the numerous small islands that compose Indonesia. This thesis work sought to understand which standalone microgrid design would represent the most sustainable solution for a rural electrification challenge, where the final scope is to provide 24 h/d stable and reliable electricity connection to the local communities of Sulawesi, Indonesia. To achieve such a result, two diametrically opposed microgrid layouts are outlined in terms of renewables share: a Business As-Usual Scenario, in which the microgrid is powered by a standard diesel set, and an integrated renewable-based scenario, in which the microgrid envisions the implementation of biopower, PV system and Li-ion batteries as a storage option. A thorough comparison on a series of Key Parameter Indicators (KPIs), such as Carbon Footprint, Levelized Cost Of Electricity and job creation, led to the identification of the renewable-based scenario as the most sustainable option. This system layout resulted in a biomass powered electricity production covering 80% of the total electricity demand, with the remaining 20% supplied by solar power and storage means and a LCOE of 0.18 USD/kWh. At the price of a higher upfront cost than the one of BAU case, the renewable-based alternative entitles a higher profitability when compared to the business-asusual one, together with reduced carbon dioxide emissions and a higher number of jobs directly created.Hållbarhetsmål nr 7 kräver ett snabbt svar för att garantera överkomlig och ren energi för alla. Medan elektrifieringsgraden snabbt ökar runt om i världen, återstår mycket arbete för att nå elåtkomst i avlägsna områden eller icke-sammankopplade zoner, såsom de många små öarna som utgör Indonesien. Detta avhandlingsarbete försökte förstå vilken fristående mikronätdesign som skulle representera den mest hållbara lösningen för en elektrifieringsutmaning på landsbygden, där det slutliga utrymmet är att tillhandahålla 24 timmars stabil och pålitlig elanslutning till lokalsamhället Sulawesi, Indonesien. För att uppnå ett sådant resultat beskrivs två diametralt motsatta mikronätlayouter när det gäller andelen förnybara energikällor: ett Business As-Usual-scenario, där mikronätet drivs av en standarddiesel och ett integrerat förnyelsebaserat scenario, där microgrid ser implementeringen av biokraft, solcellssystem och litiumjonbatterier som ett lagringsalternativ. En noggrann jämförelse av en serie nyckelparametrar (KPI), såsom koldioxidavtryck, nivåiserad elkostnad och skapande av jobb, ledde till att det förnyelsebaserade scenariot identifierades som det mest hållbara alternativet. Systemlayouten resulterade i en biomassadriven elproduktion som täckte 80% av det totala elbehovet, med de återstående 20%som levereras av solenergi och lagringsmedel och en LCOE på 0,18 USD / kWh. Till priset av en högre kostnad i förskott än i BAU-fallet ger det förnyelsebaserade alternativet högre lönsamhet jämfört med det som vanligt, tillsammans med minskade koldioxidutsläpp och ett högre antal direkt skapade jobb.

Full textAbstract:
This study presents an analysis of research articles (RAs) written in English (Eng) and Bahasa Indonesia (BI) by 6 Indonesian scholar writers, each contributing 5 RAs in Eng and 5 RAs in BI. The rhetorical features of these 60 pre-published RAs which represent 6 different disciplines (Ecology, Cultural Studies, Applied Linguistics, Economics, Medicine, and Literature) were examined to reveal metadiscursive interaction using the interpersonal metadiscourse (IMD) taxonomy of Crismore et al. (1993) and self-mentions adapting Hyland's (2002c) and Harwood's (2005) models to find out: if writers differ in their deployment of interpersonal metadiscourse and self-mentions across BI and Eng; if differences of education, disciplines and publication experiences influence authors' deployment ) of these elements in the writing of RAs in BI and Eng; and if their understanding I of discourse community and interaction effect their strategies in the writing of RAs in BI and Eng. Using mixed techniques of quantitative and qualitative analysis, the results show that metadiscursive interaction in Eng RAs is significantly different from that of BI RAs with varying patterns across disciplines under study. As regards self-mentions, despite variations in the patterns and frequency of use, the eo-text analyses indicate similar discourse functions in that writers project themselves into their discourse to signal their attempt to engage in the unfolding texts and involve the readers into the propositional content of the texts. The findings indicate high levels of contextualisation in writers' efforts to interact with readers and these appear to place high regard on the values embedded in disciplinary culture which reaffirm a previous finding by Hyland (2004), typifying the dynamic nature and fluidity of the genre of an RA, besides also showing each individual's writing style. Combined together, IMD and self-mentions revealed that metadiscursive interaction is a matter of degree of intensity and explicitness, as a result of the inherent disciplinary culture that has sanctioned each discourse community's members.

The purpose of this thesis is to analyze civil-military relations in Indonesia since independence in 1949 through the resignation of President Suharto in mid 1998. It will examine the military's exercise of power by using the prerogatives and contestations as defined by Alfred Stepan. The Indonesian Armed Forces (TNI) has been deeply involved in socio- political roles since the struggle for independence against the Dutch. Most scholars consider the New Order regime (1966-1998) to have been one dominated by the TNI Suharto resigned in May 21, 1998 and brought an abrupt end to Indonesia's 32-year-old New Order regime and started the process of redrawing the country's political map. The TNI as the most powerful political institution has started to decline. A number of the civilian reformist leaders campaigned for the military to return to the barracks immediately and relinquish its political responsibilities. This thesis will argue that the level of the military's socio-political participation has declined in recent years. Therefore, the TNI should define new options of its socio-political role in order to fit the harmonious relationship with the Indonesian society in the future.

Full textAbstract:
My PhD thesis draws from feminist and post-structuralist approaches to examine the construction of gender and Islam in Indonesian Islamic cinema between 1977 to 2011. This thesis asks: how, when, and where do Indonesian femininity and masculinity in film become Muslim? Previous studies on representations of gender in Islam have shown that clothes are immediate markers of Islamic identity. This thesis, however, seeks to transcend clothing as an obvious visual marker of Islamic identity and the fixation on the Islamic veil and turban and focus instead on the dynamic relationship between modernity and (trans)-nationalism in the construction of Muslim femininity and masculinity in Indonesian cinema. The Islamic film genre produces various mechanisms to isolate Muslim characters from their non-Muslim counterparts while at the same time marking distinctions between the 'good' and 'bad' Muslim. This thesis demonstrates that such mechanisms behind the binaries of the Muslim/non- Muslim and 'good' Muslim/'bad' Muslim are shifting concepts rather than fixed and selfevident. Furthermore, these shifting distinctions are achieved through narrative device, audio-visual tropes, and political discourse and governed by economic and cultural imperatives in the Islamic film genre. Ultimately, this thesis aims to make a contribution to the study of gender in Indonesian cinema more generally and to the definition of Islamic cinema as a film genre.

Full textAbstract:
The Web is a vast repository of data, and information on almost any subject can be found with the aid of search engines. Although the Web is international, the majority of research on finding of information has a focus on languages such as English and Chinese. In this thesis, we investigate information retrieval techniques for Indonesian. Although Indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world, little attention has been given to search of Indonesian documents. Stemming is the process of reducing morphological variants of a word to a common stem form. Previous research has shown that stemming is language-dependent. Although several stemming algorithms have been proposed for Indonesian, there is no consensus on which gives better performance. We empirically explore these algorithms, showing that even the best algorithm still has scope for improvement. We propose novel extensions to this algorithm and develop a new Indonesian stemmer, and show that these can improve stemming correctness by up to three percentage points; our approach makes less than one error in thirty-eight words. We propose a range of techniques to enhance the performance of Indonesian information retrieval. These techniques include: stopping; sub-word tokenisation; and identification of proper nouns; and modifications to existing similarity functions. Our experiments show that many of these techniques can increase retrieval performance, with the highest increase achieved when we use grams of size five to tokenise words. We also present an effective method for identifying the language of a document; this allows various information retrieval techniques to be applied selectively depending on the language of target documents. We also address the problem of automatic creation of parallel corpora --- collections of documents that are the direct translations of each other --- which are essential for cross-lingual information retrieval tasks. Well-curated parallel corpora are rare, and for many languages, such as Indonesian, do not exist at all. We describe algorithms that we have developed to automatically identify parallel documents for Indonesian and English. Unlike most current approaches, which consider only the context and structure of the documents, our approach is based on the document content itself. Our algorithms do not make any prior assumptions about the documents, and are based on the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm for global alignment of protein sequences. Our approach works well in identifying Indonesian-English parallel documents, especially when no translation is performed. It can increase the separation value, a measure to discriminate good matches of parallel documents from bad matches, by approximately ten percentage points. We also investigate the applicability of our identification algorithms for other languages that use the Latin alphabet. Our experiments show that, with minor modifications, our alignment methods are effective for English-French, English-German, and French-German corpora, especially when the documents are not translated. Our technique can increase the separation value for the European corpus by up to twenty-eight percentage points. Together, these results provide a substantial advance in understanding techniques that can be applied for effective Indonesian text retrieval.

Soejadi, Prijoko Prajitnoadi. "Participatory ergonomics in Indonesian tin mining." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2018. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/52989/.
Full textAbstract:
Thousands of employees in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia’s tin mining industry are working in dangerous environments without an adequate safety and health protection programme. Occupational safety (OS) has become a primary focal point when it comes to preventing dangerous incidents. Such incidents can lead to serious injuries and fatalities, particularly given that mining involves dangerous and high-risk activities, for example, in onshore tin mining, working in muddy areas with heat, humidity and a risk of landslide. Studies addressing the health and safety domain in Indonesia and the mining sector have the least number of ergonomics applications. The research examined the existing OS of a state-owned tin company, namely PT Timah, in Indonesia. The company has a relatively good level of experience in practising tin mining operations, and also employs occupational safety programmes. For approximately a decade, this company has collaborated with 16 private onshore SMEs which work in more than 400 locations under the PT Timah cooperation scheme. Despite applying OS and a health programme in the main company, the same programme has not been included in the tin mining operation cooperation scheme that regulates the rights and obligations of SMEs. This thesis examines the possibilities of using a well-established ergonomics approach and adapting it so that it is more frequently accepted and embraced in Indonesia. The research is focused on the participatory ergonomics (PE) approach as applied to SMEs. Postal data reviews, interviews and observation methods were used to examine the current status of OS in the Indonesian tin mining industry. The scenario-based design (SBD) method was used to investigate the acceptability of PE, while the two-round Delphi technique was applied to reach a consensus on the practical implementations of PE solutions. There is positive acceptance of PE among workers in Indonesian tin mining companies. Regular working safety dissemination through a kinship approach and specific safety training is recommended for resolving communication, cultural and knowledge issues related to OS. In addition to this, a consensus was reached on proposed solutions regarding the implementation of PE within the Indonesian tin mining industry, such as evaluation of the remuneration and bonus system, employing the train-the-trainer programme, and the OSH reporting system.

Full textAbstract:
The sustainable development goals emphasise that gender equality within education is animportant problem. Furthermore, gender equality is more than just equal access for boys andgirls, it is important to look at what happens within the classroom. Thus, the aim of this studyis to explore gender within the mathematics classroom in Indonesia. More specifically, toexplore how gender is constructed and to get the pupils’ perspective on gender equality. Theresearch questions examined are:How is gender constructed in Indonesian mathematics classrooms?How do Indonesian pupils experience gender equality within the mathematics classrooms?To answer our research questions, we observed four mathematics classrooms in an Islamicprimary school in Indonesia. Furthermore, we handed out surveys to the pupils in order to gettheir perspective on gender equality. As a foundation for the analysis of these questions, weused the queer theory complemented with an interactionist view. According to the queertheory, gender is something that is constructed and all too often a dichotomy is used whendiscussing equality between the sexes. Thus, the intention of this study is to explore genderequality within mathematics by looking beyond this dichotomy.The results show that gender is being constructed both direct and indirect by the participantsin the mathematics classrooms. Both teachers and pupils act and behave in a way thatreinforces gender stereotypes. Although, when asked, the pupils thought that the teacherstreated the sexes equally and that the mathematics classroom was gender equal. Furthermore,the pupils agree that the girls are best in mathematics. However, girls tended to have lowerself-esteem than boys since they underestimated their knowledge to a greater extent.

Full textAbstract:
When we speak of Indonesian architectural history, what are we actually speaking of? What do we understand from this field of study? How it has been done, and why? How can we make it more relevant and useful to the present? This thesis attempts to investigate the historical development of Indonesian architectural history and to illustrate how its various traditions took root and developed. Extensive materials published since the turn of the twentieth century have been scrutinised, in order to identify the many strands of architectural writing produced in different institutional locations, which to a great extent constitute our present knowledge of Indonesian architecture. The general position adopted in this thesis suggests that Indonesian architectural history is deeply rooted in Dutch academic practices in the former Indies—including archaeology, anthropology, urban sociology, town planning and architecture. The legacies of these intellectual traditions live on through their doctrines, basic concepts, theories and methods, but certainly with some reinterpretations and adjustments. The single most important advance made by this thesis is that it presents a multiple, rather than reductive view of Indonesian architectural history. It refers to various forms of the history of architecture, rather than seeing the subject as a single entity. Such an analytical strategy has enabled us to capture the complexity and breadth of the domain of Indonesian architectural history, and to map more accurately the contemporary pluralism and fragmentation within the discursive field. The first chapter explores the main features of the early writings on architecture in Indonesia. The second, third and fourth chapters delineate the legacy of the Dutch academic traditions (archaeology, anthropology, urban sociology and town planning) in Indonesian architectural history. The fifth chapter considers in detail the manner in which the problems of architectural style and identity were addressed by architects in the former Indies and the contemporary Republic of Indonesia. This thesis concludes with a prospective view for a self-reflexive and critical history of architecture.

Full textAbstract:
The subject of this study is the trade relationship between Australia and Indonesia, specifically the merchandise trade relationship. Although much have been written on this subject, most of the existing literature covers only broad macro - economic aspects, while some important micro - economic aspects have economic aspects are related to the practical implementation of international trade which include such factors as business structures, market conditions and especially the attitude and performance of been overlooked. These micro traders as well as the attitude and policies of governments.
On the theoretical level, we will examine the development of trade theories and trade models to see how far these existing theories and models can explain the international trade patterns and bilateral trade relations. The issue of complementarity has been at the heart of most attempts to explain the relative low level of trade. Our argument is that the bilateral trade relationship should not only be explained in terms of complementarity. Actually there is sufficient scope of complementarity. The problem in the trade relationship is not so much the lack of complementarity but the failure of both countries to compete with other (third countries) exporters.
This study will also show the importance of certain institutional features such as the role of the State, business structures, market conditions, certain international trade practices and the aspects of foreign aid in international trade. Broad analyses of trade performance will be combined with empirical analyses drawing from observations and experiences of the real actors in the trade relationship which are the corporate sector and government officials. The empirical analyses are intended to reveal a range of practical problems faced in reality and which may hopefully provide a guide for action by both State officials and corporate managers.
On policy implications and trade policies, the so called thinking on trade policies ' does seem to be a realistic and applicable view. The admission of imperfect market conditions and State intervention is a very realistic view on the existing international trade situation and the justification for certain new is an acknowledgement of the trade policies already implemented by most countries. Although this new thinking on trade policies is activist trade policies still in an early stage and an overall model incorporating imperfect market conditions still has to be developed, our arguments are in line with this new thinking.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores Dayak villagers search for prosperity at a Central Kalimantan frontier in Indonesian Borneo. Concretely, it asks how do marginalised people deal with the growing sense of uncertainty caused by livelihood instability in consequence of accelerated political-economic and environmental change? How do they navigate a present that refuses to offer stability and well-being and constantly is changing be- yond their control? To address these questions, the thesis looks at local livelihoods and their transformation, and examines the imaginaries of prosperity and well-being that inform these strategies. By doing so, it argues that both the past and the future provide people a space of hope to imagine a prosperous existence and that this back- and forward-looking is itself a way of dealing with the uncertainty of the present. Therewith, the thesis not only sheds light on what it means to make living in both a material and ideological sense in rural Borneo in contemporary times, but it seeks to offer a critical account of current Indonesian state practice of frontier development.
