Abstract

This article examines the connection between proxemics and cosmopolitanism. Cosmopolitans can be understood as citizens of a borderless state or owners of global citizenship, with their communication also being borderless. Cosmopolitans usually come from many different cultures and use their native languag, but their perception of place is a gradually construced process and built with experience, education or the information they have gathered from media. Indonesian cosmopolitans also have an identity of being global citizens, who like travelling around the world but choose to stay in Indonesia with their family and friends. This article describes about Indonesian cosmopolitans who prefer to live in Indonesia despite the lack of a good living environment. The article also analyzes informant perceptions of space during their time studying in Australia and working in Indonesia. In accordance with the methodology chosen for the study, interviews with three informants of the International Class Program were conducted in Jakarta in July-August 2016. The informants were active students and are currently working near Jakarta. The study identifies the differences inherent in Indonesian cosmopolitans: 1) Indonesian cosmopolitans do not travel but they like living together with their families: “whether or not one eats, what matters is that one is together with family”, and; 2) these new cosmopolitans have an open attitude. This research using a framework of analysis based on proxemics and linked their communication experiences as cosmopolitans after returning to Indonesia as alumni, with several relevant answers based on their nonverbal intercultural communication.

Abstract

There are many types of  contraceptives used by the Baduy remote indigenous communities (Baduy KAT) in Lebak regency, Banten, West Java, Indonesia. According to data, the number of family planning acceptors among the Baduy community stood at 1,529 in February 2021 comprising 1,503 in Outer Baduy and  26  in Inner Baduy. In the beginning, most Baduy KAT used implants before they changed contraceptives  of their  choice. This study aims to reveal what channels are used to disseminate information about family planning, as well as to ensure the effectiveness of the innovations about family planning information they receive. The method used is explanatory survey, with a frequency distribution to analyze and determine the relationship between variables and  Spearman correlation analysis. The results showed that most respondents or 49% received family planning information from their relatives, 22% received it  from health workers (posyandu cadres), 21% received it  from village officials, 7% received it from  indigenous community leaders (kakolot), and only 1%  received it  from the media. This study found that there is a fairly strong relationship between communication channels and the effectiveness of innovation acceptance. Most of the respondents stated that they decided to accept the family planning innovations concept within 6 months by using humans as a communication channel, such as their relatives, health workers, village officials, and kakolot leaders.
