Revisiting Baru Pelepat
No full textThis chapter by Yuliani et al. begins with a brief description of the Adaptive Collaborative Management process that occurred in the early 2000s in the village of Baru Pelepat in Jambi province, Indonesia – a process facilitated by these authors. After a brief introduction to the community itself, Yuliani et al. launch into a description of the bottom-up process that resulted in local communities getting legal rights to manage a special forest area near their community, an area that had been part of Indonesia’s forest estate. After explaining their methods, they provide the results of a land use land cover change study, which clarifies the condition of that forest, as well as the surrounding countryside, as it has changed over the previous two decades. Building on their long-term involvement in the community, they examine decision-making, inclusivity and conflict management in the community; and then show how important decisions were made, based on ongoing community monitoring. The roles of gender, economics, biodiversity and collective action are further discussed. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the critical role of learning, in both the successes the community experienced and the skills that remain
Sadomasochism In E.L James' Fifty Shades Trilogy (2011-2012): A Psychoanalytic Approach
No full textThis study is about Sadomasochism in E.L James’ Fifty Shades Trilogy (2011-2012) which is analyzed using sychoanalytic Approach proposed by Sigmund Freud. The objectives of this study are to find out what sexual acts are committed by the two major characters as practitioners of sadomasochism, to know the response of the partner, and to find out why the author of the trilogy, E.L James xposed sadomasochism in her books. This research is a qualitative research. The primary data of this research is Fifty Shades Trilogy including Fifty Shades of Grey (2011), Fifty Shades Darker (2011), and Fifty Shades Freed (2012). The secondary data of this research are other sources related to the study including websites and books. The researcher draws three conclusions in this research. Firstly, there are three kinds of sexual activities done by the two major characters namely sexual activities without involving tools, sexual activities involving tools, and sexual activities in the playroom. Secondly, there are four kinds of responses shows by the partner namely wanting, enjoying, feeling reluctant, and unbearable. Thirdly, E.L James exposed sadomasochism in her books to illustrate changes in the characters and to show the readers the effects that Christian’s childhood has caused
Burst-by-Burst Adaptive Multiuser Detection CDMA: A Framework for Existing and Future Wireless Standards
No full textThis paper provides a broad overview of the multiuser detection literature of the past few years in a nonmathematical, easily accessible approach. The treatment is then extended to the comparative study of channel-quality controlled burst-by-burst (BbB) adaptive code division multiple access (CDMA) detection such as parallel interference cancellation, successive interference cancellation, and joint detection (JD). It is demonstrated that the best complexity versus performance tradeoff is constituted by the JD receivers. Furthermore, the BbB-adaptive variable spreading factor-based schemes considered were outperformed by the adaptive quadrature amplitude modulation-based JD-CDMA schemes investigated. For example, at a channel signal-to-noise ratio per bit value of = 14 dB the latter scheme provides an average bit per symbol (BPS) throughput of 3.39, while the former provides an average BPS throughput of only 2.83, although the complexity of the latter is lower. In conclusion, BbB-adaptive CDMA schemes provide an attractive performance versus complexity tradeoff and are amenable to employment in both existing and future generations of wireless systems. Keywords—Adaptive CMDA systems, adaptive transceivers, interference cancellation, multiuser detection
Ambitions as the Effect of Childhood Experience in E.L. James Fifty Shades of Grey
No full textPROSIDING SEMINAR NASIONAL PEKAN CHAIRIL ANWAR "HUMANIORA DAN ERA DISRUPSI" (5-6 Oktober 2020 Aula Fakultas Ilmu Budaya Universitas Jember)This article aims to analyze the effect of the male character childhood in E.L. James's Fifty Shades of
Grey By using psychological approach to analyze the fictitious character and the creative process of the
author. Theory of interpretation of dream by Sigmund Freud is applied in order to explain the causes of
ambition done by Christian Grey. Grey’s ambition is caused by the desire to revenge from his trauma in
his childhood. There are three factors that make the character ambitious: The first is when Grey uses his
violence (BDSM) to dominate his partner. The second is when Grey want become rich and popular man.
The last is Grey’s heart emptiness after a woman he loved left him. The first problem is in the field of
abnormal psychology in order to differentiate abnormal from normal behavior. In short, Grey's ambitions
are caused by a traumatic condition when he was a child. E.L. James explains a sexual lifestyle which is
called BDSM (Bondage/ Disipline, Dominance/ Submissive, Sadism/ Masochism). By exposing this
lifestyle in her novel, the author wants to shows that BDSM is not an equal relationship between man and
woman
Communities at the Crossroads: Forest or large-scale monoculture in Kalimantan, Indonesia
No full textContains fulltext :
283905.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)The forests of Indonesia are home to globally important biodiversity, a source of livelihoods for thousands of local communities, and at the heart of culture and traditional knowledge systems. The forest has also become a battleground where powerful actors meet with communities who struggle to restore traditional communal rights over natural resources and land. This thesis is aimed to gain an in-depth understanding of what happens when powerful corporations lay claim to natural resources inhabited by indigenous people, which is a worldwide phenomenon.
The thesis consists of seven chapters. Chapter 1 provides the introduction, starts with a general introduction to the Indonesia's forest management, the timeline of events that significantly affected the Indonesia's forest cover, the research area in Kalimantan and its Iban inhabitants, including their relationships with nature.
Chapter 2 presents a more extended introduction to the regional and local issues, and focus on comparing the effectiveness of two approaches Problems-Solving and Appreciative Inquiry.
Chapter 3 follows with an investigation of the deforestation phenomenon, based on remote sensing, combined with an ethnographic study. This chapter also shows that some forest areas were preserved by the local communities. Chapter 4 investigates how and why these communities have done so. In Chapter 5, the analysis was broadened to also include communities who had accepted the oil palm to allow comparison. Chapter 6 moves the level of attention from the individual responses up to the village level.
Chapter 7 supplies general conclusions on what happens when powerful corporations lay claim to natural resources inhabited by indigenous people. We also discuss our findings in relation to decentralization, governance, and landscape approaches, and present our reflections of the research methodologies used in this thesis, referring to their position on the dimension between purely inductive and purely deductive approaches.Radboud University, 30 november 2022Promotor : Groot, W.T. de Co-promotores : Jong, E.B.P. de, Knippenberg, L.W.J., Sunderland, T.viii, 201 p
