Mitos Orang Kalah: Orang Laut dan Pola Pemukimannya
In this article, the author argues for the inappropriateness of the government's policy and approach in its efforts to 'develop' the indigenous people who have been categorized as 'masyarakat terasing'. Through his analysis on the program of Pembinaan Kesejahteraan Masyarakat Terasing (PKMT), the author assumes that the program has failed. He examines the failure by looking closely at the livelihood of Orang Laut in Indragiri Hilir, the fishermen, who used to live collectively along the seashore and spend most of their time in boats. They refused to stay in the resettlement village which was provided by the government who did not base its program on the social-cultural-economic reality

BILOU DAN TANTANGAN MENGKONSERVASINYA DI MENTAWAI: Sebuah Tinjauan dari Perspektif Sosial Budaya
Tulisan ini merupakan sebuah essai ilmiah berisi pokok-pokok pemikiran tentang perlunya mengakomodasi perspektif sosial budaya dalam upaya pelestarian bilou (Hylobates klossii) di Kepulauan Mentawai. Penulis bermaksud menunjukkan perlunya pendekatan terpadu, meliputi persepektif sosial budaya dalam rangka pembangunan konservasi bilou. Di satu sisi secara internal persepsi dan pemanfaatan bilou dalam kehidupan tradisional orang Mentawai erat kaitannya dengan sistem kepercayaan, adat istiadat dan kebiasaan hidup suku asli Mentawai sendiri. Di sisi lain orang Mentawai juga dihadapkan dengan berbagai bentuk kemasan modernitas yang dipromosikan dan bahkan mungkin didesakkan “pihak luar”. Di tengah-tengah ancaman kepunahan bilou di Kepulauan Mentawai dewasa ini, maka amatlah penting memetik pembelajaran dari kearifan lokal setempat dan menyeleksinya untuk dijadikan bagian dari penedekatan dan intrumen terpadu pelestarian bilou. Sebagaimana juga penting meninjau ulang berbagai bentuk promosi modernitas dan intervensi pembangunan yang selama ini kontra-produktif terhadap tujuan konservasi bilou, meliputi perlunya regulasi baru dan penegakan hukum yang lebih konsekuen.</p

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
