Abstract

This paper examines the shackles of cultural identity in the new flow of the times. Mentawai people as a community group have a local identity as a characteristic of an ethnic group. However, the attraction between local culture and the pace of modernization is getting stronger, where the influence of development hegemony and policies conflict with the cultural identity of the Mentawai people. So, it raises the chaos that is still ongoing until now. Through literature study and critical anthropology view, it shows that human has the potential to create creativity and self-adjustment. However, Mentawai people are limited and suppressed by social factors and conditions, and exploited by the 'authorities'. This means that the reality of being Mentawai people is not created by nature but by humans, namely humans who have the power to 'manipulate conditions' and patent meanings that suit their minds that are full of conflict, illusion, and distortion. Mentawai people are in a 'false consciousness' that modernization helps them see the world better and have consciously stuttered (cultural backwardness) from that objective condition. Culture is deliberately clashed with the pace of modernization in various elements of life. However, Mentawai people are not rigid and make adjustments from the politically charged situation that makes them marginalized, exploited, and subordinated. Cultural tactics (cultural meaning) to follow the pace of modernization are used. Modernization and globalization are considered 'interaction spaces' in which there is a contestation arena of various elements of human life.

Abstract

Acehnese Civil Society Organizations have formed policy products, laws, and derivative products, such as the formation of Law Number 11 of 2006 concerning the Government of Aceh. The government started this law after signing an agreement between the Indonesian government and the Free Aceh Movement. However, the public participation has decreased in forming several Qanuns. The study aims to discover why public participation in policy formation in Aceh has decreased the supporting and inhibiting factors. The research was conducted using qualitative methods. Data was collected through literature study and interviews. The research results show the ebb and flow of civil society participation in the formation of public policy: (1) changes in behavior and government institutions, but followed by community apathy due to the lack of feedback on input in the discussion of laws and regulations; (2) increasing the capacity of public institutions or organizations, but followed by a decrease in the number of NGOs that focus on public policy advocacy; (3) ease of public access to information, but no impact on open government management and community welfare; and (4) social changes that support participation of civil society in the formation of laws and regulations. Meanwhile, the results also show the supporting factors, such as the availability of resources and guarantees for fulfilling public rights. The inhibiting factors for ongoing public participation in policy formation consist of the availability of resources, socio-cultural factors, and the lack of feedback or follow-up on public input

Abstract

The era of digital natives has offered many conveniences, including social media and e-commerce. This use contributes to personal branding, resulting in the creation of self-identity. This study aims to describe the social reality of Gen-Z in performing consumptive behavior for personal identity in the Digital Natives Era with the AGIL concept. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods. Data collection techniques used are interviews and observations. There were five informants in Medan. The results showed that Gen-Z's consumptive behavior in Online Shopping in the Digital Natives Era was influenced by the demands of forming personal branding through fashion, which was becoming a trend on social media. Some informants normalize their consumptive behavior to follow directions and develop personal branding. According to the theory of Parsons (AGIL), this phenomenon results from social change related to consumption behavior. This study concludes that the need to form personal branding has manipulated students' awareness of wasteful behavior.
