    ‘There are No Such Great Philosophies’: Contested Meanings of Toasebio Parish in Jakarta

    No full text
    This present study aims at exploring the meaning of the building of Santa Maria de Fatima Catholic Church (abbreviated as: SMFCC) or Toasebio Parish located in District Glodok, Jakarta, Indonesia. The author exposes in advance the meaning of the physical elements of the building SMFCC as understood by history writers and building experts. These meanings are not inseparable from the elements of human activities in the building. Through qualitative methods and literature review, the author describes in the Results section, how those meanings can be further interpreted through the existing studies and expressions of the SMFCC Parish Head. It is found that these meanings are contested − from the direction of religious faith and of culture − but complete our understandings of the church which is well-known as an Indonesian cultural heritage and dominated by Chinese and pastors from Europe

    Pada salah satu dialog dalam film The Last Samurai (2003), Kapten Nathan Algren, diminta oleh Kaisar Meiji menceritakan kisah kematian Katsumoto (guru sang kaisar semasa kecil yang pada akhirnya terpaksa memberontak ketika melihat modernisasi telah menggilas adat, tradisi, dan terlebih nilai-nilai luhur Bushido). Dengan penuh rasa hormat, sang kapten menyampaikan bahwa ia lebih memilih menceritakan kisah kehidupan Katsumoto yang sarat dengan keteladanan untuk dijadikan pedoman hidup. Sejalan dengan itu, obituari ini tidak ditulis untuk menceritakan bagaimana proses kematian Prof. Dr. dr. Hari Kusumandyoko Lasmono, M.S., FIAS (akrab dipanggil Prof. Hari). Di sisi lain, tulisan ini juga bukan merupakan sebuah biografi yang mengisahkan secara rinci dan lengkap perihal proses kelahiran dan kehidupan Beliau

    Psychoanthropology of Power Contestation: Mangunan Alternative Education “Versus” the National Curriculum of the Indonesian Government

    AbstractIn 2009, Nolen conducted a systematic study of 11 journals with the highest impact factor in educational psychology. One of the findings is that there are four themes which are considered to be distinctive to educational psychology, namely classroom achievement, learning and memory, affective/motivation/beliefs, and cognition/reasoning (rank 1 through 4). Meanwhile, sociocultural factors, psychosocial factors, and public policy was ranked 15, 20, and 25 out of 25 themes which had been “agreed” by the authors of the journal articles regarding the distinct content of educational psychology. The current study actually emphasizes public policy and sociocultural factors as the research focus, with the assumption that psychological processes in education are not only contributed by psychosociocultural factors, rather the process ses themselves are social processes. This research aims to present qualitative analysis regarding contestation of power between the Indonesia National Curriculum with the Mangunan Canisius Experimental Elementary School (CEES) as an experimenting society. This research belongs to the grounded theory type of research, using methods of data collection in the form of participant observation, in- depth interview, and lived in Mangunan CEES for 2.5 years. The research results indicate that there is contestation of power between Mangunan CEES (“True Learning”) and the Indonesia National Curriculum. In addition, Mangunan CEES epistemologically and psychologically has an implication on the continuous care for the poor and marginalized people to be able to support themselves in an independent and holistic manner

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Psikologi Kebangsaan Sebagai Payung Studi Baru di Indonesia

    Title in English: Psychology of Nationality as A New Studies Umbrella in Indonesia. Abstract: The role of psychology in dealing with issues of and improving the welfare of the nation has often been raised into topics of psychology seminars and conferences, both in subdisciplines of social psychology, clinical-macro psychology, and other subdisciplines. Psychology, as a science that deals with human dimensions, tries to contribute from formulating the definition of "nation" to doing research and social intervention on the nation's problems. This phenomenon is very encouraging because it shows that we are continually questioning ourselves as a nation, a precondition for healthy development, as well as seeing and trying to reach the possibilities of how our nation will "become". Every psychology (assumed that psychology is not singular) that indicates and prescribes adherence of feelings and commitments of citizens with the imagined community of the nation deserve to be called as Psychology of Nationality

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
