  • Changing Policies Over Timber Supply and Its Potential Impacts to the Furniture Industries of Jepara, Indonesia
    JMHT Vol. XXI, (1): 36-44, April 2015 Scientific Article EISSN: 2089-2063 ISSN: 2087-0469 DOI: 10.7226/jtfm.21.1.36 Changing policies over timber supply and its potential impacts to the furniture industries of Jepara, Indonesia Dodik Ridho Nurrochmat1*, Efi Yuliati Yovi1, Oki Hadiyati2, Muhammad Sidiq3, James Thomas Erbaugh44 1Department of Forest Management, Faculty of Forestry, Bogor Agricultural University, Academic Ring Road, Campus IPB Dramaga, PO Box 168, Bogor, Indonesia 16680 2Ministry of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia, Gedung Manggala Wanabakti Block I, 3th Floor Gatot Subroto, Senayan, Jakarta, Indonesia 10270 3CBFM and Agroforestry GIZ BIOCLIME, Jl. Jendral Sudirman Km. 3,5 No 2837 Palembang, Indonesia 4School of Natural Resources and Environment, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA Received March 2, 2015/Accepted April 28, 2015 Abstract Though some scholars argue that Indonesian wood furniture industries are in decline, these industries remain a driving force for regional and national economies. Indonesian wood furniture has a long value chain, including: forest farmers, log traders, artisans, and furniture outlets. In Jepara, Central Java, wood furniture industries contain significant regional and historical importance. Jeparanese wood furniture industries demonstrated great resilience during the economic crisis in the late nineties. Although they were previously able to withstand the pressures of economic crisis, the enactment of Minister of Forestry Regulation (MoFor Reg.) 7/2009 on wood allocation for local use -as one of the implementing regulation of Decentralization Law 32/2004- causes a potential reduction of wood supply to Jepara. Since September 30th, 2014, however, the constellation of domestic timber politics has changed due to the new decentralization law (23/2014), which shifted most regulations on forest and forest products from the regency to the province.

  • Economic Inequality and Inter-Island Shipping Policy in Indonesia Until the 1960S
    E3S Web of Conferences 202, 07070 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202020207070 ICENIS 2020 Java and Outer Island: Economic Inequality and Inter-Island Shipping Policy in Indonesia Until the 1960s Haryono Rinardi* Department of History ;Faculty of Humanity; Diponegoro University Abstract. This article tries to explain the relationship between economic inequality in Java and outer Java, also the inter-island shipping policy in Indonesia until the 1960s by using the historical methods. This study proves that the inequality had occurred since the colonial era when the Dutch colonial government focused on developing infrastructure on Java as the center of its government. When withdrawn again, inequality has occurred since pre-colonial times. The inter-island shipping policy that places Java as the center of shipping has increasingly encouraged economic inequality. Keywords: Economic Inequality; Inter-island Shipping; Historical Methods; Java and Outer Java; Colonial Era 1 Introduction Inequality and dichotomy between Java Island and other regions in Indonesia are not only real but visible in terminology. The Colonial Government referred to areas outer Java as Buitenbezittingen and then buitengewesten. [1] Therefore it is not surprising that Clifford Geertz, an anthropologist, distinguishes the interior regions of Central Java and East Java and as Indonesia within. Other areas have referred to as outer Indonesia [2]. Obviously, the two regions have different types. The Indonesian region has culturally influenced by Hindu- Buddhist culture. It can seen from the existence of various temples in the P. Java region. Another influence is the persistence of the presence of cultural arts, which is a relic of Hindu- Buddhist culture in Indonesia, such as the Ramayana and Mahabarata epics.

Abstract: Industrial development has now entered in a new era known as the Industry 4.0. This change certainly affects culture in global and local communities. One of them is the Jepara wood carving industry, where the interest of young carving artists towards Jepara wood carving art seems to be diminishing. This study wanted to find out how far the industrial revolution 4.0 had an influence on woodcarving industry players in Jepara so that effective solutions could be obtained to develop wood carving creations from the younger generation. The purpose of this study is to document and analyze the behavior of wood carving actors who have made use of technological advancements and automation as an effort to transform technology to improve the creation of quality carving works, both in terms of product distribution and aspects of production efficiency. This research critically contains the influence of Industry 4.0 trends on woodcarving industry players and how the attitudes and readiness of Jepara wood carving artists face the industrial era 4.0. The challenge of changing the Industry 4.0 towards wood carving creative actors is expected to be the answer and have an impact on the distribution chain of wood carving products and the quality of wood carving.

Silk The realisation of this thesis was supported and enabled by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), the Gonda Foundation (KNAW) and the Research School of Asian, African and Amerindian Studies (CNWS), Leiden University. Acknowledgements My wish to research the relationship between Ancient Javanese architecture and its natural environment is probably born in 1993. That summer, I made a trip to Indonesia to complete the writing of my BA dissertation. There, on the upper slopes of the ever-clouded Ungaran volcano, looking at the sulfurous spring that runs between the shrines of Gedong Songo, I experienced the genius loci of Central Javanese architects. After my BA, I did many things and had many jobs, not all of them being archaeology-related. Nevertheless, when I finally arrived in Leiden to enroll as a PhD student, the subject naturally imposed itself upon me. Here is the result, a thesis exploring the notion of space in ancient Central Java, from the lay-out of the temple plan to the interrelationship between built and natural landscape.

Pada hal sebenarnya dalam perjalanan sejarah Indonesia di berbagai wilayah peranan wanita tidak bisa diabaikan. Indonesia mempunyai tokoh-tokoh perempuan yang pernah memegang peranan penting dalam bidang politik dan pemerintahan pada masa lampau. Beberapa contoh di antaranya adalah Ratu Sinuhun yang memerintah Palembang dari tahun 1616-1628, Kemudian Dayang Lela pada tahun 1790 menggantikan suaminya, Jaya Kusuma, memerintah Kerajaan Mempawa di Kalimantan Barat. Pada abad ke-19 di Sulawesi Selatan dikenal raja-raja perempuan yaitu Daeng Pasuli dari daerah Sawito, Pada dari daerah Alita, Adi Matanang dari Rapang, Siti Aisya dari Barru, dan I Madina Daeng Bau dari daerah Lakiang. Sementara itu Ternate pernah diperintah oleh We Tanri Ole.1 Bahkan Kerajaan Aceh memiliki tokoh perempuan yang paling banyak dalam bidang pemerintahan, politik, dan militer.

  • Strategies and Opportunities in Karimunjawa Island, Central Java
    Journal of Indonesian Tourism and doi: 10.21776/ub.jitode.2017.005.02.08 Development Studies E-ISSN : 2338-1647 http://jitode.ub.ac.id Poverty and Tourism: Strategies and Opportunities in Karimunjawa Island, Central Java Budi Setiawan1,2*, R. Rijanta3, M. Baiquni4 1Post Graduate Programme, University of Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta, Indonesia 2Faculty of Social Science, University of Muhammadiyah Purworejo, Purworejo, Indonesia 3Faculty of Geography, University of Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta, Indonesia 4Center for Tourism Studies, University of Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta, Indonesia Abstract This article analyzes the strategies of Pro-Poor Tourism (PPT), i.e. the strategies to increase the benefits for poor people from tourism development. It explained the view that tourism, on a small or large scale, has a positive contribution to increased sources of income, creation of employment opportunities, and community development. However, there are still problems in developing the potentialities of the local labor force to contribute in the tourism sector. The development of tourism in Karimunjawa over the past ten years has undergone good progress, but the poverty rate in Karimunjawa is still fairly high. The problem of poverty is a complex one and is linked to a decrease in the main sources of earnings, i.e. fisheries and agriculture. The underlying concern is the fact that the growth of tourism in Karimunjawa has fostered the growth of resorts, hotels or the service sector owned and run by big investors, vis-à-vis the scant participation of the poor. The dominant types of job that the local community does are as employees or hired workers, and they are rarely involved directly in the planning and development of tourism, thereby restricting the potential role of the poor in the tourism sector in Karimunjawa.
