Penanganan Stunting Melalui Collaborative Governance di Kabupaten Bekasi
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengelaborasi secara mendalam implementasi tata kelola kolaboratif (Collaborative Governance) dalam bingkai Pentahelix guna mengakselerasi penurunan prevalensi stunting di Kabupaten Bekasi. Pendekatan kualitatif dengan analisis deskriptif digunakan sebagai metode, didukung oleh teknik pengumpulan data berupa studi dokumen serta wawancara mendalam dengan pemangku kepentingan utama dari Pemerintah (Bappeda, Dinas Kesehatan), Dunia Usaha, dan Akademisi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya keberhasilan Kabupaten Bekasi dalam mereduksi prevalensi stunting secara berarti, dari 23,2% (2023) menjadi 18,2% (2024). Penurunan ini menunjukkan dampak positif dari kolaborasi yang dijalankan. Namun demikian, kolaborasi tersebut masih bersifat kolaborasi mandat, dengan Pemerintah berperan sebagai inisiator yang dominan. Secara humanis, kontribusi sektor swasta melalui skema CSR terbukti sangat krusial, berhasil meningkatkan berat badan balita penerima intervensi hingga 37%-40%, mencerminkan kepedulian bersama terhadap tumbuh kembang anak. Di sisi lain, tantangan struktural teridentifikasi, yaitu fragmentasi koordinasi akibat ketiadaan forum kolektif rutin dan lemahnya pemahaman bersama (shared understanding) di antara aktor Pentahelix mengenai esensi masalah lokal. Simpulan penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya formalisasi forum multi-pihak yang terpadu dan berkelanjutan sebagai prasyarat fundamental untuk membangun komitmen kolektif, menyelaraskan aksi secara terintegrasi, dan memperkuat sinergi Pentahelix demi keberlanjutan masa depan generasi di Kabupaten Bekasi
Pengaruh Arsitektur Neo-Vernakular terhadap Identitas Budaya Lokal (Studi Kasus : Balai Pemuda Surabaya)
Full text linkThis study explores the contribution of neo-vernacular architecture to the formation and preservation of local cultural identity, with a case study of the Balai Pemuda building in Surabaya. Neo-vernacular architecture is recognized as a design approach that combines traditional elements with modern styles, making it relevant in the context of cultural preservation in urban environments. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques including case studies, field observations, visual documentation, and in-depth interviews. Findings reveal that elements such as roof forms, decorative motifs, and spatial arrangements in Balai Pemuda reflect the cultural values of Surabaya. The integration of traditional elements within a modern design framework not only enhances the architectural character of the building but also raises public awareness about the importance of preserving cultural heritage. The results of this study contribute to the discourse on architectural design that respects cultural context and promotes the creation of sustainable, contextual, and culturally enriched architecture

Agriculture is a vital sector in Indonesia’s economy, not only as a pillar of food security but also for its potential to be developed into educational tourism through the concept of edu-agrotourism. This concept integrates agricultural activities with recreation, education, and community empowerment, contributing to sustainable development. Kampung Gambut in Siantan Hilir, Pontianak, is an area rich in natural resources and agricultural diversity, yet its potential has not been optimally utilized due to limited infrastructure, weak management, and low environmental awareness. This study aiims to design the agro Wisata Kuat Sihir area as an educational tourism site with a focus on the edu-agrotourism concept. The planning process adopts a participatory and sustainable approach, using primary and secondary data collection, along with various analyses, including spatial analysis, tourism 3A (Attraction, Accessibility, and Amenities), and design emphasis. The results of this design are expected to offer long-term benefits to the local community through economic improvement, job opportunities, and increased understanding of sustainable agriculture, while also offering visitors a unique and educational tourism experience.

Tinjauan Normatif Implementasi Justice Collaborator Sebagai Upaya Pengungkapan Fakta Hukum Tindak Pidana Pembunuhan Berencana Dalam Putusan Nomor: 796/Pid.B/2022/Pn.Jkt.Sel
Full text linkPremeditated murder is a serious criminal offense that threatens the fundamental right to life and generates broad social implications, including fear and public unrest. The case examined in Decision Number 796/Pid.B/2022/PN.Jkt.Sel holds distinctive juridical and sociological relevance, particularly due to the involvement of law-enforcement officers as perpetrators and the crucial role of a cooperating offender (Justice Collaborator) in revealing the material truth. The presence of a Justice Collaborator introduces an important dialectic: while serving as an effective instrument in proving complex criminal cases, it simultaneously raises concerns regarding legal protection guarantees and sentencing consistency. This research employs a normative juridical method with statutory and case approaches. Primary legal sources include the Criminal Code (KUHP), the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), Law No. 31 of 2014 on Witness and Victim Protection, and Supreme Court Circular Letter No. 4 of 2011, analyzed alongside doctrinal and academic literature. Findings indicate that although the Justice Collaborator mechanism has obtained normative legitimacy, its regulation remains partial and lacks systematic codification in a dedicated statute. Judicial considerations in Decision Number 796/Pid.B/2022/PN.Jkt.Sel demonstrate that the status of a Justice Collaborator is treated as a mitigating factor due to their significant contribution to uncovering material truth. Thus, the application of the Justice Collaborator scheme in premeditated murder cases not only enhances the effectiveness of criminal justice but also underscores the urgency of establishing more comprehensive and equitable legal protection mechanisms
Analisis Sosiologi Hukum atas Penyalahgunaan Wewenang Tindak Pidana Korupsi dalam perspektif Anomie dan Realisme Hukum
Full text linkThe abuse of authority in corruption cases in Indonesia can be more comprehensively examined through the lens of the sociology of law, particularly by applying Anomie Theory and Legal Realism. Corruption, as an extraordinary crime, persists despite the relative adequacy of the formal legal system (law in the books). This study employs a socio-legal method with a qualitative descriptive approach to explore the interplay between social structures and law enforcement practices in power-based corruption. The findings reveal that Anomie Theory explains corruption as a deviant “innovation” arising from the gap between cultural goals such as wealth and social status and the limited institutional means to achieve them lawfully. Conversely, Legal Realism emphasizes law in action, showing that judicial decisions and enforcement practices are often influenced by extra-legal factors such as political power, economic interests, and institutional pressure. This dynamic erodes the corrective function of formal law and undermines substantive justice. Although procedural justice may be achieved, public trust in the legal system continues to deteriorate, perpetuating a cycle of social anomie. The study concludes that effective anti-corruption efforts require not merely normative or positivist reforms, but also structural transformation in law enforcement and the reconstruction of social norms underpinning the moral legitimacy of law
The Analysis of Customer Satisfaction at Jagad Farm Binjai Grape Agrotourism in Tandem Hulu Village, North Binjai District, Binjai City, North Sumatra
No full textCompetition among agrotourism destinations requires managers to maintain and improve service quality to meet visitors’ expectations. This study aims to analyze visitor satisfaction at Jagad Farm Grape Agrotourism using the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) and Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) methods. Fourteen attributes covering product quality, service, facilities, and promotion were examined through visitor questionnaires. The results show a CSI value of 87.75%, categorized as “very satisfied,” indicating that most visitor expectations were met. The IPA results identified grape product quality, pre-visit promotion, and ease of understanding services as top priorities for improvement. Meanwhile, attributes such as product suitability, fair pricing, strategic location, and friendly service should be maintained. These findings recommend that management focus on enhancing priority attributes and maintaining those with good performance to ensure consistently high and sustainable visitor satisfaction
The Benefits, Effectiveness, and Risks of ShopeePay: Shaping Consumer Interest
No full textThis study examines how perceived benefits, system effectiveness, and perceived risks shape consumer interest in using ShopeePay as a digital payment platform in Indonesia. As digital payment adoption accelerates, understanding the key determinants of user preference becomes increasingly important for service providers. Data were collected from 185 active ShopeePay users through a structured question-naire and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that system effectiveness and perceived risks significantly influence consumer interest, whereas perceived benefits do not show a meaningful impact. These results suggest that users prioritize operational performance, transaction reliability, and security considerations over general convenience when evaluating digital payment plat-forms. This study contributes to the business and consumer behavior literature by offering empirical insights into the factors that drive e-wallet usage. Practical implications highlight the importance for fin-tech providers to strengthen service efficiency, enhance security features, and communicate system reliability to improve user engagement and competitive positioning
Transactional Sex, Digitalization and Administration in Selected Tertiary Institutions, Southwest Nigeria
Full text linkThis study examines the complex intersection between transactional sex, digitalization, and institutional administration in selected tertiary institutions in Southwest Nigeria. While e-administration initiatives are increasingly adopted to enhance service delivery and academic transparency, unintended consequences have surfaced, notably the rise in transactional sexual relationships. These relationships, often involving the exchange of sex for material benefits or academic favors, are now frequently facilitated by digital platforms such as social media and mobile banking, complicating oversight and ethical governance in higher education. Grounded in Bronfenbrenner’s Bio-ecological Systems Theory and Technological Determinism Theory, the study provides a theoretical lens for understanding how multi-layered social environments and advancing digital technologies interact to shape student behaviors, power dynamics, and exploitative practices within educational settings. Using a qualitative research design, in-depth interviews were conducted with 30 students (25 female, 5 male) across five universities. Findings revealed six major themes: students’ perceptions of transactional sex, its root causes, associated health risks, proposed remedies, perceptions of digitalization, and its challenges. Transactional sex emerged as a survival strategy driven by poverty, peer influence, social norms, and digital anonymity. Reported implications included gender-based violence, unwanted pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases (such as HIV/AIDS), and academic decline. At the same time, participants acknowledged digital learning’s flexibility and administrative efficiency but noted concerns regarding digital distractions, infrastructure deficits, and weakened interpersonal relationships. The study concludes that while digitalization promotes institutional efficiency, it also inadvertently fosters exploitative behaviors that threaten student welfare and institutional integrity. It recommends behavior change campaigns targeting students and parents, university-based health education programs, and poverty alleviation initiatives, such as scholarships, vocational training, and regulatory safeguards, to promote ethical conduct, protect vulnerable groups, and strengthen academic integrity
