Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh Marjaana Jauhola Marjaana craps of Hope in Banda Aceh examines the rebuilding of the city Marjaana Jauhola of Banda Aceh in Indonesia in the aftermath of the celebrated SHelsinki-based peace mediation process, thirty years of armed conflict, and the tsunami. Offering a critical contribution to the study of post-conflict politics, the book includes 14 documentary videos Scraps of Hope reflecting individuals’ experiences on rebuilding the city and following the everyday lives of people in Banda Aceh. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh Banda in Hope of Scraps in Banda Aceh Marjaana Jauhola mirrors the peace-making process from the perspective of the ‘outcast’ and invisible, challenging the selective narrative and ideals of the peace as a success story. Jauhola provides Gendered Urban Politics alternative ways to reflect the peace dialogue using ethnographic and in the Aceh Peace Process film documentarist storytelling. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh tells a story of layered exiles and displacement, revealing hidden narratives of violence and grief while exposing struggles over gendered expectations of being good and respectable women and men. It brings to light the multiple ways of arranging lives and forming caring relationships outside the normative notions of nuclear family and home, and offers insights into the relations of power and violence that are embedded in the peace. Marjaana Jauhola is senior lecturer and head of discipline of Global Development Studies at the University of Helsinki. Her research focuses on co-creative research methodologies, urban and visual ethnography with an eye on feminisms, as well as global politics of conflict and disaster recovery in South and Southeast Asia.

    J. Kebijakan Sosial Ekonomi Kelautan dan Perikanan Vol. 1 No. 1 Tahun 2011 ANALISIS KEBIJAKAN INTRODUKSI SPESIES IKAN ASING DI PERAIRAN UMUM DARATAN PROVINSI ACEH Z. A. Muchlisin Jurusan Budidaya Perairan, Koordinatorat Kelautan dan Perikanan, Universitas Syiah Kuala, Banda Aceh 23111; Tsunami and Disaster Mitigation Research Center (TDMRC), Universitas Syiah Kuala, Banda Aceh Email: [email protected] Diterima 1 September 2011 - Disetujui 11 Desember 2011 ABSTRAK Provinsi Aceh memiliki potensi perikanan perairan umum daratan yang besar dengan berbagai spesies lokal. Potensi ini belum sepenuhnya dimanfaatkan baik untuk perikanan tangkap maupun budidaya. Di sisi lain, tekanan terhadap perairan umum daratan semakin meningkat terutama disebabkan oleh kerusakan lingkungan, pencemaran, pemanasan global dan introduksi spesies ikan asing yang mengancam komunitas ikan lokal. Introduksi spesies ikan asing menjadi isu penting, baik di tataran global maupun lokal. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dan mengadvokasi awal kebijakan introduksi spesies ikan asing di Provinsi Aceh. Untuk memberikan gambaran yang lebih jelas, kajian ini menggunakan studi kasus introduksi spesies ikan asing di Danau Laut Tawar. Kajian ini menggunakan metode analisis deskriptif-eksploratif dan studi literatur sebagai basis kebijakan introduksi spesies ikan asing yang perlu mendapatkan perhatian. Hasil kajian menunjukkan sebanyak sembilan spesies ikan asing telah ada diperairan Aceh. Dari jumlah tersebut, tujuh spesies diantaranya telah hadir di Danau Laut Tawar. Saat ini Pemerintah Provinsi Aceh belum memiliki kebijakan untuk mengatur introduksi spesies ikan asing ke perairan Aceh. Hal ini dapat menyebabkan ancaman terhadap spesies ikan lokal. Karena itu kebijakan berupa peraturan daerah yang mengatur hal tersebut sangat diperlukan.

    University of St. Thomas Law Journal Volume 7 Article 8 Issue 3 Spring 2010 2010 Religious Freedom Implications of Sharia Implementation in Aceh, Indonesia Asma T. Uddin Bluebook Citation Asma T.

This Article is brought to you for free and open access by UST Research Online and the University of St. Thomas Law Journal. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ARTICLE RELIGIOUS FREEDOM IMPLICATIONS OF SHARIA IMPLEMENTATION IN ACEH, INDONESIA ASMA T. UDDIN* INTRODUCTION On Monday, September 14, 2009, the provincial legislature in Aceh, Indonesia passed Sharia regulations imposing stringent criminal punish- ments for various sexual offenses, such as adultery and fornication.1 Sharia, literally meaning “way to a watering place,” is a set of divine principles that regulate a Muslim’s relationship with God and man by providing social, moral, religious, and legal guidance. It is implemented through fiqh, or Is- lamic jurisprudence, which is the science of interpreting religious texts in order to deduce legal rulings. The Acehnese Sharia regulations are the latest manifestations of a process of formal implementation of Sharia that began in 2002 in Aceh.2 Given the gravity of the associated punishments, the reg- ulations have caught national and international attention, with human rights activists across the world decrying the severity of the corporal punishments imposed by the regulations. Much less frequently scrutinized are the regula- tions’ implications for other human rights—such as religious freedom. This paper analyzes these regulations’ religious freedom implications for both Muslims and non-Muslims.

  • Separatism in Indonesia Ñ the Cases of Aceh and Papua Ñ
    SUMMARY Separatism in Indonesia Ñ The Cases of Aceh and Papua Ñ Osamu INOUE If in the future disintegration does happen in the Republic of Indonesia, the states most likely to separate from Indonesia are Aceh (the most western province) and Papua (the most eastern province). Such development has come under the calculation of the central government since the downfall of the Soeharto regime. The government for some time has been making preparations to formulate autonomy plans for the two states in an effort to prevent the disintegration from happening. But despite the governmentÕs endeavoer, the Aceh and Papua communities seem still discontented. This can be seen from the fact that they still keep on demanding a referendum. As a democratic country, the government cannot turn down such demands, and one day will have to accept the demand for a referendum to let the people of the two provinces vote for their futures. Certainly the way to referendums is not going to be smooth, as there are a number of politicians and security personnel who are worried that such a move will become a precedent for other provinces that might seek to ask for separation. The central government does not want to see Indonesia break up into many small countries. Nevertheless, according to my view, the possibility of such a national split is not high, as Aceh and Papua have a different historical background from that of the other provinces. Concerning Aceh, first, if we look back on history, the Aceh community never surrendered authority to the Dutch government. Therefore, it can be regarded that Aceh joined the Republic of Indonesia in 1945 when Indonesia proclaimed independence from the Dutch government.
