Caring for Nature but Marginalizing Women: A Study of Ecofeminism in The Children Drama Script “Kerajaan Burung” By Saini Km
“Kerajaan Burung” is a drama script about children written by Saini KM which won a children drama script writing contest in 1980. This drama script was popular to be performed by many children theatre community since it was published firstly due to ecology pedagogical values. Besides its values, the drama script has hidden ecofeminism discourses. This research aimed to investigate those discourses. This research was descriptive qualitative research which applies reading, noting, and data card techniques in collecting the data. The theory of ecofeminism has been applied in analyzing the patriarchal perspective of anthropocentrism toward nature and women. The data of the research were words, sentences, dialogues, performance explanations (didaskali), and discourses related to ecofeminism. The source of the research data was the drama script “Kerajaan Burung” written by Saini KM. The analysis results showed that literary work written by male writers which talk about nature conservation cannot be freed by gender bias about ecology. The naming of the main character, Kiku, which is not followed by detailed characterization causes selection of the actress in theatre performances. This finding affirmed the idea that responsibility toward environmental damage and nature conservation is women's duty. Women are people who are often mocked by the patriarchal system applied in society.“Kerajaan Burung” adalah naskah drama anak dan remaja karya Saini K.M. yang memenangi sayembara penulisan naskah sandiwara untuk anak-anak tahun 1980. Sejak pertama kali ditulis naskah ini menjadi langganan komunitas teater anak untuk dipentaskan karena muatan pedagogis ekologis. Kendati demikian, di balik muatan nilai pedagogisnya, lakon tersebut menyembunyikan gagasan ekofeminisme. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membongkar gagasan ekofeminisme tersebut. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif yang memanfaatkan teknik baca catat dan sistem kartu data dalam pengambilan datanya. Teori ekofeminisme digunakan untuk membedah relasi alam dan perempuan. Data penelitian ini adalah kata, kalimat, dialog, keterangan pemanggungan (didaskali), dan wacana ekofeminisme. Sumber data penelitiannya adalah naskah drama berjudul “Kerajaan Burung” karya Saini KM. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karya sastra, dalam hal ini, naskah drama karya pengarang laki-laki yang bercerita tentang pelestarian alam tentu perlu dimaknai secara khusus lantaran terdapat sejumlah tanda yang tidak dapat dibebaskan dari bias gender, khususnya ikhwal ekologis. Penamaan tokoh utama Kiku, misalnya, menimbulkan interpretasi karakter yang mengarah pada pemilihan aktor perempuan. Ini memperkuat gagasan bahwa pihak yang paling bertanggung jawab terhadap pelestarian dan kerusakan alam adalah perempuan. Perempuan menjadi kaum yang acapkali dipermainkan oleh sistem patriarki yang berlaku di masyaraka
Adaptasi Budaya Melayu dalam Pola Kehidupan Masyarakat Orang Asli (Kuala) di Batu Pahat,Johor
Kajian ini membuat tinjauan tentang pola kehidupan komuniti masyarakat Orang Asli (Kuala) yang menetap di Batu Pahat. Tinjauan dilaksanakan menerusi kaedah kualitatif dan berfokus kepada tinjauan pustaka berkaitan dengan Orang Asli (Kuala) dan Orang Melayu tempatan. Tinjauan mendapati bahawa sejarah kedatangan golongan pendatang ini hadir terdahulu daripada masyarakat tempatan di Batu Pahat, walau bagaimanapun tiada maklumat tepat yang tepat. Golongan ini merupakan kelompok Melayu Proto yang datangnya daripada Kepulauan Riau, Sumetara Indonesia iaitu merupakan salah satu kelompok Orang Asli di Malaysia. Sekarang, golongan Orang Asli (Kuala) ini lebih cenderung mengamalkan budaya Melayu dan dalam menuju ke arah menjadi Melayu. Proses asimilasi dan amalgamasi yang dilalui oleh golongan ini sejak
sekian lama, telah menyebabkan sebahagian besar mereka tidak lagi mempertahankan budaya yang kurang sesuai dengan corak kehidupan masyarakat Melayu. Pergeseran bukan sahaja berlaku terhadap budaya, malah aspek kehidupan juga mempamerkan keadaan yang sama.
Makalah ini cuba mendeskripsikan Orang Asli (Kuala) dan meninjau perubahan budaya dan sosio budaya Orang Asli (Kuala) di Batu Pahat pada masa ini
Pemali Tradition in Indonesia Archipelago: People’s Perception, Attitude, and Obedience
As a cultural heritage containing traditional teachings, Pemali has been since long time practiced by the local people of Indonesia in almost all parts of the archipelago. The traditional teachings are nowadays potential of conflicting with the current life style of people due to a number of factors. This study aims at providing data and information about perception, attitude, and obedience of Indonesian people toward the pemali by investigating four independent variables i.e. ethnic group, sex, age, and education of the samples. A total of 318 samples of Indonesian people residing in East Kalimantan Province participated in the study. The data of perception, attitude, and obedience collected by questionnaires form the samples specified in each of the four independent variables were then analyzed quantitatively by using analysis of variance (Anova) procedure, homogeneity test, and multiple comparison test. The statistic computations of the data analysis were done by applying SPSS computer program. The results of the analysis indicated that the majority of samples performed good perception as well as positive attitude toward pemali. In terms of obedience toward pemali, samples' obedience was categorized into 3 levels: very high, high, and moderate. The study concluded that amid the modern life style of the present era, the archipelago people keep upholding the local cultural values handed down from their ancestors as parts of their national identity
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
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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
