Abstract

This article is the result of research on artisanal and small-scale gold mining in Tatelu. The study was conducted using field theory and qualitative research methods. With the permission from the government, mining activities become stable because there is certainty of ownership rights. Mining activities are managed by entrepreneurs, cooperatives, and the village government and have provided welfare for the people of Tatelu and surrounding areas. Villagers involved in mining have transformed economic capital obtained from mining into physical capital in the form of village infrastructure, housing, cultural or educational capital, and investment in other economic activities. There is vertical mobility of several miners and entrepreneurs. Vertical mobility begins after mining activities are stable where the agency capacity of the actors can be realized in the form of actions that allow capital accumulation. The deeper the hole to get gold ore, the more difficult the upward mobility of miners and entrepreneurs with limited economic capital because mining costs are increasingly expensive. There are indications that entrepreneurs with small capital will decrease because they cannot finance the mining business. The results of this study will lead to the conclusion that in the field of small scale mining economic capital is far more decisive than cultural capital and the agency capacity of the actors is increasingly limited as the mine hole deepens.

Abstract

Cultural and social capital is important in the development of industrial cluster of ceramic art craft. This paper describes and explains the role of cultural and social capital in the development of industrial cluster of ceramic art craft in Kasongan. This paper also describes and explains the dynamics of domination and resistance among entrepreneurs in the cluster. By using qualitative research methods show that cultural capital is important for the change of the cluster from the one which produce traditional-functional ceramic to the one which produce artistic ceramic. It is also important for upward social mobility among entrepreneurs. Social capital is important for facilitating economic transaction and for making organization or institution doing a good performance. Bourdieu and Putnam’s concept of social capital are complementary in explaining empirical reality of the cluster. The dominant entrepreneurs have tried to maintain their domination by using of symbolic capital and by developing the cluster in the interest of himself and all entrepreneurs.
