  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Manusia Adalah
    BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Manusia adalah mahluk sosial, karena itu manusia tidak lepas dari berkomunikasi dengan satu sama lain. Untuk bisa berkomunikasi satu sama lain manusia menggunakan bahasa sebagai alat. Kridalaksana (1993: hlm.21) mengemukakan “ Bahasa adalah sistem lambang bunyi yang arbitrer yang digunakan oleh para anggota kelompok sosial untuk bekerjasama, berkomunikasi, dan mengidentifikasi diri”. Jadi, bahasa dapat digunakan untuk berkomunikasi satu sama lain . Namun, untuk berkomunikasi satu sama lain biasanya tidak hanya menggunakan satu bahasa saja, bisa jadi menggunakan dua bahasa atau bahkan lebih. Ini dikarenakan komunikasi yang tidak hanya dilakukan satu negara saja, bahkan komunikasi dapat dilakukan dengan seluruh negara. Dan di era globalisasi seperti ini diperlukan penguasaan lebih dari satu bahasa untuk memudahkan dalam menjalani persaingan. Bilingualisme adalah kemampuan menggunakan dua bahasa yang meliputi keterampilan menyimak, berbicara, membaca dan menulis(Abdullah, 2012:hlm.170). Di Indonesia sendiri masyarakatnya dapat dikatakan bilingual karena menguasai dua variasi bahasa atau lebih. Contohnya, di Indonesia yang terdapat banyak provinsi, dan di masing-masing provinsi tersebut mereka mempunyai bahasa daerah masing-masing, Provinsi DKI Jakarta dengan bahasa betawinya, provinsi Sumatera Barat dengan bahasa Minangnya, Provinsi Jawa Barat dengan bahasa Sundanya, dan lain-lain. Jika orang provinsi Jawa Barat bertemu dengan orang provinsi DKI Jakarta, maka mereka akan menggunakan bahasa Indonesia atau menyisipkan bahasa Indonesia pada saat berkomunikasi agar bisa saling mengerti. Peristiwa tutur inilah yang disebut Bilingualisme. Alia Ayuning Tiyas, 2019 ANALISIS ALIH KODE DALAM DRAMA JEPANG MASSAN Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia │ repository.upi.edu │ perpustakaan.upi.edu 2 Menurut Wardhaugh(1998:hlm.100), Dengan demikian, di dalam masyarakat multibahasa terdapat bermacam-macam kode, yang antara lain berupa dialek, sosiolek, serta gaya yang digunakan dalam berkomunikasi.

Diversity-Based Programming dan Inspiring Broadcasting: Misi NHK Sebagai Penyiar Publik Melalui Program Asadora BAWUK RESPATI Fakultas Film dan Televisi, Institut Kesenian Jakarta e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper questions NHK’s position as a Japanese public television station that has a different mechanism compared to standard commercial TV stations. Through the analysis of three elements: funding, programme variation, and broadcasting standards, this paper tries to explain how the production process of the asadora (morning drama) programme—a programme that is considered to be one of the more popular NHK programmes, is NHK’s effort to fulfil its mission and responsibility as a public broadcaster. In the end, this essay finds that the production of asadora holds two key principles at its heart: diversity-based programming and inspiring broadcasting, two key principles NHK used to guarantee viewer trust. ABSTRAK Tulisan ini mempertanyakan posisi NHK sebagai stasiun televisi publik di Jepang, yang memiliki mekanisme berbeda jika dibanding dengan stasiun televisi komersial pada umumnya. Dengan menganalisis tiga elemen, yakni sistem pendanaan, variasi program, dan standar penyiaran, tulisan ini mencoba untuk menjelaskan bagaimana proses produksi sebuah program, yakni asadora (drama pagi)—program yang terbilang populer di antara program NHK lainnya, merupakan usaha NHK untuk memenuhi misi dan tanggung jawabnya sebagai penyiar publik. Tulisan ini pada akhirnya menemukan bahwa produksi asadora memegang dua prinsip utama, yakni diversity-based programming dan inspiring broadcasting, yang merupakan dua prinsip kunci yang digunakan NHK untuk menjamin terjaganya kepercayaan penonton.

  • Locating Imagination in Popular Culture
    Locating Imagination in Popular Culture Locating Imagination in Popular Culture offers a multidisciplinary account of the ways in which popular culture, tourism, and notions of place intertwine in an environment characterized by ongoing processes of globalization, digitization, and the increasingly ubiquitous nature of multimedia. Centred around the concept of imagination, the authors demonstrate how popular culture and media are becoming increasingly important in the ways in which places and localities are imagined and how they also subsequently stimulate a desire to visit the actual places in which people’s favourite stories are set. With examples drawn from around the globe, the book offers a unique study of the role of narratives conveyed through media in stimulating and reflecting desire in tourism. This book will have appeal in a wide variety of academic disciplines, ranging from media and cultural studies to fan and tourism studies, cultural geography, literary studies, and cultural sociology. Nicky van Es, MSc, is currently a lecturer at Erasmus University Rotterdam. Next to teaching within the International Bachelor of Arts & Culture Studies, he co-founded the MA programme Place, Culture & Tourism (2018). In addition, he is working towards finalizing his dissertation (exp. 2020) on literary tourism as part of the Locating Imagination project, funded by the Dutch Science Foundation. Among his published research articles are “Chasing Sleuths” (Annals of Tourism Research, 2016) and “Capital Crime Cities” (European Journal of Cultural Studies, 2016) and several book chapters, and he is the main editor of the upcoming edited volume Locating Imagination in Popular Culture (Routledge, 2020). Stijn Reijnders, PhD, is Full Professor of Cultural Heritage, in Particular in Relation to Tourism and Popular Culture at Erasmus University Rotterdam.

Past and present 223 JAPANESE WOMEN’S ROLE. PAST AND PRESENT Óscar Ramos Pilar Garcés University of Valladolid Introduction It is an undeniable fact that society in Japan is suffering the convul- sions of a tsunami in the way it has to face a new cultural era. Suddenly the models that have been the driving force of society are being contested by an oversized wave that is gradually but inexorably dismantling a highly structured and homogeneous community whose main principles and values rested upon the concepts of duty and honour. At the crest of this massive wave are the women and young people of this country who are heading a revolt against the establishment without being absolutely conscious of their leading role in this socio-cultural upheaval. Both women and the Japanese youth feel that the world of the older generation is collapsing, that their energy urges them to react against this crumbling world, and, consequently, they react instinctively, moved by an opposing force that makes them search for an answer in a chaotic universe.

  • Place, Tourism and Belonging
    8 Following Oshin and Amachan Film tourism and nation branding in the analogue and digital ages Elisabeth Scherer and Timo Thelen Introduction The asadora (morning drama) is considered one of the most representative and influential formats on Japanese television. With each series running for half a year, the asadora presents a female heroine in her struggle for per- sonal fulfilment and happiness for 15 minutes every morning since 1961. Yoshimi (2005 : 544) noted that “[f]rom the early 1960s, television became a prominent medium linking the family with the state, defining the national consciousness, and dominating people’s imaginative views of both the past and the present”. This is very true for the asadora : the show’s daily presence and the ritualistic habits of many viewers give the asadora steady public attention as well as a prominent place in the collective memory of Japan. Although some critics have diagnosed the slow decline of this format – along with classic television in general – and criticized the sometimes very conser- vative narratives, the asadora remains an important flagship for the public broadcaster NHK. Furthermore, it also receives notice beyond national bor- ders, especially in East Asia. Even though various asadora have long been closely linked to specific regions of Japan as filming locations, their impact on tourism has only been investigated recently (e.g. Maruta et al., 2014; Tajima, 2015 ; Jang, 2016 ; Scherer & Thelen, 2017 , 2018 ). Research on media tourism in Japan usually focuses on the genre of anime ( Yamamura, 2015 ) and historical television series (Seaton, 2015 ). In Japan, the term “contents tourism” is commonly employed, a buzzword initiated by the Japanese government in the early 2000s as an umbrella term for any kind of tourism associated with a trans- medially marketed and locally anchored story.

  • Single Mothers in Contemporary Japanese Television Drama 1
    New Heroines for a New Era? Single Mothers in Contemporary Japanese Television Drama 1 ACTA ASIATICA VARSOVIENSIA No. 27, 2014 PL ISSN 08606102 FORUM MITHANI New Heroines for a New Era? Single Mothers in Contemporary Japanese Television Drama Abstract The figure of the single mother has played an important role in Japanese television drama over several decades. In the 1960s and 1970s, the figure of the single mother was often used to uphold traditional, patriarchal notions of family and gender, which stressed the importance of the mothers role in childrearing and running the household, and limited the role of women to the domestic sphere. However, as female participation in all areas of society has increased, and women have begun to question the assumption that marriage and motherhood are an essential part of their lives, so Japanese television drama has responded, reflecting and sometimes anticipating these changes. Today, single mothers in Japanese television dramas are actively rejecting patriarchal structures by forming women-only support networks or forging new identities as independent career women. However, very little academic attention has been paid to these representations. This paper hopes to make a small contribution towards rectifying this situation by analyzing the representations of single motherhood in contemporary television drama. In her study of unmarried mothers in contemporary Japan, Ekaterina Hertog notes the considerable media attention single (in particular, unmarried) motherhood receives in Japan, considering it is still a relatively rare phenomenon.1 Mother-and-child households (boshi setai) made up only 2 per cent of all Japanese households in 2011.2 Yet the media is awash with stories of single mothers.
