Abstract

With the first edition of this work conceived well over a decade ago and the present edition published just about a year ago, there is still much to understand about technologies and new media intellectually and empirically. Dr Eugenia Siapera’s work “Understanding New Media”, 6th Edition eases the task for readers by providing comprehensive and readable information about much that we need to know on the concept ‘new media’, its variants and their relationships with the social and other non-social elements of society. Diversity, hegemony, production, consumption, theories and political economy are some of the key themes Dr. Siapera examined critically in her work. Because of the importance she attaches to the issue of political economy, the author dedicated a whole chapter (Chapter 2) to political economy of new media. Using critical discourse analysis approach, we reviewed chapters 1, 2 and 5 only. This is because of the critical importance of the analysis provided in these chapters on some of the most intriguing topics in media studies and research such as issues surrounding the concept of new media, the influence of political economy on media content dissemination and consumption as well as the negative uses and effects of new media in society, especially on young users.

Abstract

Along with the massive internet penetration, the number of social media users in Indonesia increases significantly during this half decade. Besides being used as a medium to communicate, social media also plays a role as a source of information consumed by the public. This poses a dilemma. On the one hand, information becomes decentralized. But on the other hand, there is no verification mechanism for information in the social media space. The loss of this check and clarification process makes it easy for hoaxes, disinformation and misinformation to spread through social media, including those related to government performance as well as public policy issues. Previous studies have shown how social media impacted public’s perceptions toward the government across several countries both with positive and negative effects. Thus, this study aims to answer the relationship between the use of social media as a source of information of the public and their satisfaction with the government's performance through polls that were conducted 3 times during the period of 2021-2022 across Indonesia. The polls show various results which explain the different impacts of social media consumption toward people’s satisfaction with the government based on time frame and political partisanship.

Abstract

In the case of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is necessary to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 through the vaccination program. Along with vaccination socialization, there is a lot of hoax information and disinformation related to vaccines which unfold distrust and reluctance among people to be vaccinated. However, it is different in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, especially the Sleman area, which has the highest vaccination rate and is declared to be completing the COVID-19 Vaccination in 11 months. This condition is an example of trust from the Sleman community listening to vaccination recommendations. The application of a cultural approach in increasing public trust to vaccinate against COVID-19 is also interesting to study further. Therefore, this study examines how the efforts to build public trust utilizing a cultural approach to crisis communication by the Department of Public Relations of the Sleman Government, which builds an image and manages the COVID-19 crisis, as well as being the Spokesperson for the COVID-19 Task Force. The research method used is a case study that explicitly discusses vaccination programs between January and May 2021. Data collection was done through in-depth interviews with the Department of Public Relations of the Sleman Government and secondary data through literature studies, related documents, and internet sources. The data analysis technique applies the approach of Miles and Huberman (1998), with data validation techniques through source triangulation. The efforts of the Department of Public Relations of the Sleman Government generated a high level of trust due to the decentralization policy which strengthened their relation with the community. The analysis results prove that the application of crisis communication by the Department of Public Relations of the Sleman Government intersects and supports each other on public trust in both the selection of actors, the preparation of messages, and the use of media. The coverage of elements of public trust present in the crisis communication of the COVID-19 Vaccination program proves that there is a link between effective crisis communication which has implications for high public trust.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the ideology of racism in Hollywood films shown on Netflix. To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is a film based on a New York Times Best Seller novel. Initially, this film had some drawbacks because almost all production houses refused to keep an Asian face as the main character in accordance with the novel. The concept of ideology in the film refers to the concept proposed by John Storey. That ideology is an ideal form of image which aims to attract attention through methods, such as those used in texts, including films as mass media products to present a certain image about the world. This study applied a qualitative text analysis method, i.e.i.e. the Semiotics method. The film was analysed through Roland Barthes’ semiotic analysis, which is known for its denotative, connotative, and mythical meanings. The signs in the film were studied in stages to get the meaning of the message and also to uncover the myths that hide behind the ideology in the film. The result shows the use of Asian faces as the main characters who are also protagonists in To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before demonstrates that the racism depicted in this film is a myth. This film also joins the ranks of Hollywood films in which Asian actors were previously thought to be unable to sell at the box office. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis ideologi rasisme dalam film-film Hollywood yang ditayangkan di Netflix. To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before adalah film yang diangkat dari novel New York Times Best Seller. Pada awalnya film ini memiliki beberapa kekurangan karena hampir semua rumah produksi menolak untuk mempertahankan wajah Asia sebagai karakter utama sesuai dengan novel. Konsep ideologi dalam film mengacu pada konsep yang diusulkan oleh John Storey. Ideologi adalah bentuk citra ideal yang bertujuan untuk menarik perhatian melalui metode, seperti yang digunakan dalam teks, termasuk film sebagai produk media massa untuk menyajikan citra tertentu tentang dunia. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode analisis teks kualitatif, yaitu metode Semiotika. Film ini dianalisis melalui analisis semiotik Roland Barthes, yang dikenal dengan makna denotatif, konotatif, dan mitosnya. Tanda-tanda dalam film ini dipelajari secara bertahap untuk mendapatkan makna pesan dan juga untuk mengungkap mitos yang tersembunyi di balik ideologi dalam film. Hasilnya menunjukkan penggunaan wajah Asia sebagai karakter utama yang juga protagonis dalam To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before menunjukkan bahwa rasisme yang digambarkan dalam film ini adalah mitos. Film ini juga masuk dalam jajaran film Hollywood di mana aktor Asia sebelumnya dianggap tidak menjual di box office.

Abstract

This article aimed to map the themes of Public Service Media (PSM) studies, definitions, competition of interests, positions, and policy directives. Changes in the digital media sector have changed the characteristic of Public Service Broadcasting (PSB) into those of PSM. This change in character has led to a polemic on the relevance of PSB’s role and debates over media policies and regulations in a number of countries. Through a systematic study of literature, this research examined 62 journal articles related to media public service policies from 2003 to 2011. The search and selection of articles adapted the stages of the systematic literature study introduced by Lestón-Huerta, Goyanes, & Mazza (2021) who applied the “Prisma guideline” with various adjustments made in accordance to the study objectives. The results showed that most of the PSM policy studies still raised cases of PSM in Western countries, especially Europe. Most of the articles raised the setting of public broadcasting, media convergence, the internet, the economic crisis and political transition in discussing PSM policies. Most studies used a qualitative study approach. The findings identify a number of main themes in the PSM policy review, variations in the definition of PSM, three models of PSM’s position, and PSM policy directives which include the redefining of roles, funding, and management of PSM. This article was closed by conclusions and recommendations. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk memetakan tema studi Media Pelayanan Publik (PSM), definisi, persaingan kepentingan, posisi, dan arahan kebijakan. Perubahan di sektor media digital telah mengubah karakteristik Penyiaran Pelayanan Publik (PSB) menjadi PSM. Perubahan karakter ini telah menimbulkan polemik tentang relevansi peran PSB dan perdebatan tentang kebijakan dan regulasi media di sejumlah negara. Melalui kajian literatur yang sistematis, penelitian ini mengkaji 62 artikel jurnal terkait kebijakan pelayanan publik media dari tahun 2003 hingga 2011. Pencarian dan pemilihan artikel mengadaptasi tahapan studi literatur sistematis yang diperkenalkan oleh Lestón-Huerta, Goyanes, & Mazza (2021) yang menerapkan “pedoman Prisma” dengan beberapa penyesuaian yang dilakukan sesuai dengan tujuan studi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar studi kebijakan PSM masih mengangkat kasus PSM di negara-negara Barat, khususnya Eropa. Sebagian besar artikel mengangkat latar penyiaran publik, konvergensi media, internet, krisis ekonomi dan transisi politik dalam membahas kebijakan PSM. Sebagian besar penelitian menggunakan pendekatan studi kualitatif. Temuan ini mengidentifikasi sejumlah tema utama dalam tinjauan kebijakan PSM, variasi dalam definisi PSM, tiga model posisi PSM, dan arahan kebijakan PSM yang meliputi pendefinisian ulang peran, pendanaan, dan manajemen PSM. Artikel ini ditutup oleh kesimpulan dan rekomendasi.

Abstract

Sexual violence is a big problem in society, because the negative impact on the victim causes prolonged suffering. Assistance for victims is carried out at the individual, group and institutional levels, both formal and informal. They act as support providers for sexual violence victims.

The study results indicated that the support providers implemented a communication strategy by applying the principles of empathy, support and equality, so the victims were willing to open up and get help. They applied rapport techniques in building relationships, practiced active listening skills, and did self-disclosure to be on par with the victim, so the victims can be more open. Kekerasan seksual adalah masalah besar di masyarakat, karena dampak negatif pada korban menyebabkan penderitaan yang berkepanjangan. Pendampingan bagi korban dilakukan di tingkat individu, kelompok dan kelembagaan, baik formal maupun informal. Para pendamping bertindak sebagai penyedia dukungan bagi korban kekerasan seksual. Pendamping sering mengalami kesulitan karena korban merasa sulit untuk membuka diri karena trauma yang mereka alami. Strategi untuk berkomunikasi diperlukan, sehingga pendamping dapat memberikan dukungan dan bantuan dengan baik kepada korban. Penelitian ini ingin mengeksplorasi strategi komunikasi yang digunakan oleh pendamping dalam menangani dan membantu korban kekerasan seksual. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis deskriptif. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam. Informan dari penelitian ini adalah pendamping yang menangani korban kekerasan seksual. Informan kunci terdiri dari tiga orang, yaitu seorang polisi untuk perlindungan perempuan dan anak (PPA), psikolog yang menjadi korban kekerasan seksual, dan pendeta (relawan gereja).

Abstract

This study aimed to determine challenges of teaching gender in journalism and media studies courses on various campuses in Jakarta, Indonesia. The ‘otherness’ is still ghosting the lecturer, where the duality is a must to create comprehension on gender topics. It is essential because teaching the gender issue in communication study programs in Indonesia does not reflect a lot on women’s experiences. The theory of gender pedagogy is the basis of this study. Meanwhile, the duality perspective serves as its framework. Gender pedagogy is not just a tool, strategy, or practical technique for understanding gender teaching in education. Teaching gender equality values in the classroom becomes a challenge for teachers. This research applied a qualitative approach and hermeneutic phenomenology strategy. The research used in-depth interviews for research instruments. This research indicated various levels of understanding and implementation of teaching gender issues. Even in some universities that do not include gender issues in journalism and media studies courses, the lecturers must struggle to fit gender issues in various teaching opportunities in their classrooms. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tantangan pengajaran gender dalam mata kuliah jurnalisme dan studi media di berbagai kampus di Jakarta, Indonesia. ‘Keberbedaan’ masih mengaburkan pengajaran, di mana dualitas menjadi suatu keharusan untuk menciptakan pemahaman tentang topik gender. Hal ini penting karena pengajaran isu gender di program studi komunikasi di Indonesia tidak banyak merefleksikan pengalaman perempuan. Teori pedagogi gender adalah dasar dari penelitian ini. Sementara itu, perspektif dualitas berfungsi sebagai kerangka kerjanya. Pedagogi gender bukan hanya alat, strategi, atau teknik praktis untuk memahami pengajaran gender dalam pendidikan. Mengajarkan nilai-nilai kesetaraan gender di kelas menjadi tantangan tersendiri bagi guru. Penelitian ini menerapkan pendekatan kualitatif dan strategi fenomenologi hermeneutika. Penelitian ini menggunakan wawancara mendalam untuk instrumen penelitian. Penelitian ini menunjukkan berbagai tingkat pemahaman dan implementasi pengajaran isu gender. Bahkan di beberapa universitas yang tidak memasukkan isu gender dalam mata kuliah jurnalisme dan studi media, para dosen harus berjuang untuk menyesuaikan isu gender dalam berbagai kesempatan mengajar di kelas mereka.

Traditional wedding ceremony is still popular over generations whilst it actually lives and remains amongst the society and becomes valuable cultural experience for the people. People not only celebrate the party but also make the nostalgic moments, which sometimes spark a conflict between generations. This research would describe about how communication contributes its influence in accommodating the generation gap to improve a relationship bonding, especially through the traditional wedding ceremony. In accommodating the generation gap, the communication focuses on the patterns of convergence in communication behaviours. The constructivist paradigm was applied to describe the phenomenon on the Javanese family in absorbing the traditional wedding ceremony as the legacy of the family. The qualitative methods were used to collect data by participant observation and the sampling was purposive sampling. This study found out that that accommodation can resolve the problem between generations and make their interaction as a harmonious interaction. There are surely so many differences amongst generations, such as attitudes, focus, and priorities, the lack of willingness in providing information and doing the voluntary disclosure become another issues in the interaction. However, during the traditional wedding ceremony moments, the communication experiences teaches more than just values and conventions. It also shows moral virtues, generosity, hospitality, love, respect, and the soul of the tradition itself which accommodates the generation gap.

Penelitian ini akan menjelaskan tentang bagaimana komunikasi memberikan kontribusi pengaruhnya dalam mengakomodasi kesenjangan generasi untuk meningkatkan ikatan hubungan, terutama melalui upacara pernikahan tradisional. Dalam menjembatani kesenjangan generasi, komunikasi berfokus pada pola konvergensi dalam perilaku komunikasi. Paradigma konstruktivis diterapkan untuk menggambarkan fenomena pada keluarga Jawa dalam menyerap upacara pernikahan tradisional sebagai warisan keluarga. Metode kualitatif digunakan untuk mengumpulkan data dengan observasi partisipan dan pengambilan sampel adalah purposive sampling. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa penjembatan tersebut dapat menyelesaikan masalah antar generasi dan menjadikan interaksi mereka sebagai interaksi yang harmonis. ocusada begitu banyak perbedaan di antara generasi-generasi, seperti sikap, ocus, dan prioritas, kurangnya kemauan dalam memberikan informasi dan melakukan pengungkapan sukarela menjadi masalah lain dalam interaksi. Namun, selama momen upacara pernikahan tradisional, pengalaman komunikasi mengajarkan lebih dari sekadar nilai-nilai dan konvensi. Ini juga menunjukkan kebajikan moral, kemurahan hati, keramahan, cinta, rasa hormat, dan jiwa dari tradisi itu sendiri yang mengakomodasi kesenjangan generasi.
