This paper describes the development of a set of measures of women's psychological well·being in Indonesia. identit'es meaning­ ful clusters of women based on the well-being measures. and explores the sociodemographic factors associated with these well-being clusters. This is the t.rst published study to measure psychological well-being among a large sample of Indonesians and the t.rst to focus on women in that country. Rather than use standard measures of psychological well­ being developed in Western nations and untested among Asian women. focus groups were conducted to develop an understanding of Indonesian women's perceptions of their own well-being. The focus group t'ndings were used to develop 41 questionnaire items to measure psychological well-being. and the questionnaire was administered to 796 women in Elizabeth EggleslOn is affiliated with lht!

MAN, LAND AND FOREST IN LAMPUNG 6.1 INTRODUCTION Forestry policy and lawmaking and implementation do not happen in a vacuum. Perceptions of law-makers, their formulation of policy problems and their decisions to transform the policy into legislation have largely been influenced by social, political, economic and environmental circumstances. At the national level, we have seen how the social pressure and the changes of political regimes in Indonesia have influenced the decision of the Ministry of Forestry to revise their Social Forest legislation (see 3.6). At the regional level, in Lampung province, Forestry policies and legislation have mostly emerged as the regional government's response to environmental and social distress in and surrounding Forest Areas, as will be described in chapter 7. Forest destruction, population pressure in Forest Areas and land conflicts are amongst the problems Lampung's regional governmenthas to deal with. This chapter describes how forest destruction and land conflicts have originated and escalated within the changing social, political and ecological circumstances in Lampung. It contains three themes: firstly, this chapter provides a geographical, economic and social overview of Lampung (see 6.2).

In an effort to implement the government program on the implementation of the regional autonomy law, the Lampung Provincial government wants to advance its region from the tourism sector because tourism is considered to be a high source of local government revenue.

  • The Javanese in Lampung, Stranger Or Locals? with the Reference of Chinese Experience1
    THE JAVANESE IN LAMPUNG, STRANGER OR LOCALS? WITH THE REFERENCE OF CHINESE EXPERIENCE1 Riwanto Tirtosudarmo Research Center for Society and Culture - Indonesian Institute of Sciences Email: [email protected] Diterima:13-10-2015 Direvisi: 21-11-2015 Disetujui: 1-12-2015 ABSTRAK Orang Jawa merupakan mayoritas dari penduduk Indonesia. Secara geografis mereka tinggal di Jawa Tengah, DIY dan Jawa Timur. Namun sejak awal abad ke-20 pemerintah kolonial Belanda mulai memindahkan mereka ke Lampung di Sumatera bagian selatan dan kemudian ke berbagai tempat lain.Selama seabad Lampung menjadi daerah tujuan utama migrasi Orang Jawa, menjadikan Lampung “provinsi Jawa” setelah Jawa Tengah, DIY dan Jawa Timur.Berbeda dengan Orang Cina yang berhasil membangun bangsa dan negara Cina, Orang Jawa gagal dalam membangun bangsa Jawa; bahkan mendukung dibangunnya bangsa dan negara Indonesia. Dalam tulisan ini Orang Jawa di Lampung dilihat sebagai kasus bagaimana kejawaan sebagai sebuah identitas ditempatkan dalam konteks perubahan politik pasca-Suharto, ketika desentralisasi dan otonomi daerah mulai dimplementasikan. Dari pengamatan yang dilakukan terlihat bahwa Orang Jawa meskipun tetap mempertahankan sebagian besar identitas kebudayaannya namun terbukti tidak menggunakan identitas tersebut untuk melakukan mobilitas politik, misalnya pada saat pemilihan kepala daerah. Orang Jawa sudah merasa aman, dan tidak merasa sebagai Orang Asing, karena nerupakan mayoritas meskipun berada di wilayah yang sejatinya milik Orang Lampung. Kata kunci: Migrasi, Identitas Etnis, Penduduk Lokal, Mobilitas Politik ABSTRACT Javanese is the majority of the Indonesian population. Geographically they are resided in the provinces of Central Java, DIY and East Java. However, since the beginning of the 20th century the Dutch colonial government began to relocate them to Lampung in the sothern part of Sumatra and then to other places.
