Abstract

This article discusses the agrarian problems that occurred in Medan ahead of the 1955 General Election. The agrarian problem stems from Dutch plantation activities in East Sumatra which required a lot of vacant land to become an industrial center, including Medan being a victim. In its development, many people were deliberately brought in to fill this area. During the Japanese occupation, the plantation lands were replaced for logistical needs by people from outside Medan who were organized by the Japanese to occupy the lands. The succession of power occurred again, the occupied lands then became a source of problems and gave birth to conflicts between stakeholders. This situation is then used as material by political parties that will contest the General Election by supporting one of the parties. This article is only limited to agrarian issues ahead of the 1955 Election in Medan City. Of course, it is very possible that there are similar articles that discuss the development of agrarian issues in subsequent elections, both in Medan City, and Indonesia in general.

Abstract

This article discusses the existence of peasants during three eras with different powers. During the Dutch and the Japanese colonialism, it can be said that peasant is a profession that must be avoided because it will become an object of exploitation by those in power. During Dutch rule in Indonesia, the policies that exploited peasants were ‘culturstelseel’ (the forced planting system) and the 1870 Agrarian Law. These two policies made peasants even more impoverished, the lands that formerly owned peasants were forcibly taken away to plant commodities that were in demand on the world market and the profits went into their pockets ruler. During the Japanese colonialism, an obligation to produce rice made peasants increasingly tormented because they had to pursue predetermined targets. During The independence, the peasants were embraced by political parties until they were transformed into mass organizations. Although there has been some progress in the national agrarian political agenda, differences in ideology and interests have resulted in conflicts and struggles between peasant mass organizations, and even with civil society.

Abstract

During the International Land Grabbing Conference 2024 in Colombia, the authors had the opportunity to visit two sites of agrarian reform struggle in the Department of Cundinamarca, where efforts to curb land grabbing are being implemented: the San Joaquín Farm in the municipality of Puerto Salgar, and the Zona Reservo Campesino in the municipality of Venecia. Given the long-standing history of agrarian issues in Colombia and the hopeful political will of the current Colombian president, it is intriguing to discuss the authors' findings from this field visit to understand the achievements in the implementation of agrarian reform in Colombia, as well as the challenges faced in resolving agrarian issues confronted by farmers and rural communities. Based on observations, it is evident that the success of agrarian reform implementation relies on the political will of the government and efforts to involve farmer organizations, as well as addressing policy barriers. A state-centered approach, with the involvement of social actors such as farmer organizations and NGOs, can overcome structural and institutional obstacles. Furthermore, sustainable livelihoods for farmers must be prioritized, considering the cultural and historical context of the farmers and the need for balanced resource management with a subjective approach to agricultural organization, which can facilitate farmer regeneration and the success of agrarian reform in Colombia.

Abstract

This research aimed to enhance reading interest and reading culture among children at Fiber Permata Kasih orphanage. The research subjects were elementary school-aged children residing in the orphanage. The identified problem was the lack of reading culture among these children, leading to learning difficulties. This issue was exacerbated by the digitalization trend and the use of gadgets, which consumed the children's time for reading books. This research was an educational mini-project utilizing the social group work approach. The Delphi method was employed through Focus Group Discussions (FGD). The stages of social group work were carried out, ranging from the preparation to the termination phase. Activities were conducted in the form of interactive sessions using engaging picture and game methods to attract children's interest in reading. The research results demonstrated an increase in reading interest and reading culture among the orphanage children after participating in the activities. The children became more interested in reading and understood the importance of reading for their learning process at school. The implication of this research is the need to develop programs that promote the growth of reading culture among children from an early age, particularly for those living in orphanages
