Central Java

Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang berpotensi memiliki banak sumberdaya panas bumi. Potensi panas bumi yang dimiliki Indonesia mencapai 40% dari total potensi yang dimiliki dunia. Bahkan di Kabupaten Semarang, Jawa Tengah mempunyai potensi panas bumi yang cukup memadai untuk dikembangkan, seperti lapangan panas bumi Gedong Songo. Temperatur yang didapatkan dengan menggunakan metode gas geothermometer cukup tinggi sehingga daerah Geothermal Gedong Songo mempunyai potensi digunakan untuk sumber tenaga listrik dan kegiatan perekonomian lainnya. Oleh karena itu perlu diadakan pembelajaran lebih lanjut terkait Geothermal Gedong Songo.

A study of the Shaiva artifacts installed by the royal Sri Kumbhayoni around the Abhayagirin double-platform around A.D. 856, two years after the new Theravadin Lambakanna king Sena II had repudiated the primacy of the Abhayagiri and its doctrines, and about a year after the advent of a new king of Central Java.  It is argued that Kumbhayoni's supplements cannot be conceived as complementary to the Abhayagirin Buddhist mission, but rather must be seen as a repudiation of it.  The southern Ratu Boko as an abhisheka, perhaps rajyabhisheka, site is suggested.

This article seeks to discuss the women's environmental activism as manifested in their involvement in the contemporary anti-cement movement in the Kendeng Mountain Range of Central Java. Three major issues are dealt with here: 1) the ways in which the issues of women and the environment are linked and utilised to justify the women's involvement in the forefront of the resistance against the cement industry, 2) key female figures who have provided leadership in raising awareness among the passive, domestic-oriented women and mobilized them into a more unifying resistance force, and 3) the forms of women's resistance against the cement industry. Although women are not the only actors in the movement, but their partaking presents an interesting feature. Their involvement in the resistance has become an icon that provides a basis for labelling the contemporary anti-cement movement as the struggle of "Kartinis of Kendeng", linking it with Indonesia's national heroine of the region who has struggled for liberating women from the prison of tradition.

What personalities and processes need to be present for religious traditions to successfully establish new constituencies? In Aceh, for example, did recently arrived Arabs from Aden play key roles in the processes of "Islamisation?" While few claim rank outsiders to have been crucial in chapters of significant religious change, in this paper I argue that neither are individuals⎯albeit inadequately⎯described as insiders. Accounts provided by historians done with dissecting the dynamics of religious change note the presence of multi-lingual and mobile mediators, who have been described as "inbetweeners", who were adept at importing new ideas⎯including ways of dealing with the divine. Commerce across the Indian Ocean both before and after the rise in European presence centred on ports where being different was normal. Pre-colonial port-cities produced ethnolinguistical “creole” or “cosmopolitan” communities whose comfort with ethnoreligious diversity is lamentable scarce in present-day South and Southeast Asia. This paper considers the role of “mobile mediators” and “inbetweeners” in the importation of a range of Islamic movements in Thailand. I make suggestions about the personalities and processes through which ideas espoused by Imam Al-Ghazali (1058–1111), Sheikh Ahmad Ibn Idris (1760-1837), and Muhammad ‘Abduh (1849-1905) become known in Thai/Malay Peninsula. I describe the contributions and discuss the identity of local luminaries including Shaykh Ahmad al-Fatani, Ishmael Lutfi Japakiya, Direk Kulsriswasd, and Conrad Laurens Coolen to the spread of mystical, modernist, reformist, and revivalist Christian and Muslim movements.

Forcible restraint and confinement of persons suffering from mental illness occurs throughout the world, including in Indonesia. Since 2010, when Gerakan Bebas Pasung (GBP) or the Indonesian Freedom from Forcible Restraint ( Pasung) of Mentally Ill Persons movement was launched, national policy has been published to eradicate Pasung in Indonesia by improving the mental healthcare system. This article analyses this policy, specifically the National Mental Health Legislation (2014) and the Ministry of Health Regulation Tackling Forcible Restraint of People with Mental Illness (2017), and evaluates their current state of implementation through a local, in-depth case study. Using mental health institution mapping, two sets of semi-structured qualitative interviews with government officials and healthcare workers, and participant observation in a facility practicing Pasung, we identify the extent to which the 2017 regulation has been implemented in Winong village and discuss current efforts and persistent obstacles to eradicating Pasung. We suggest that despite reforms and the new treatment facility in our case study, the continuing use of Pasung is due to a combination of access to care issues and a widely held explanatory model of mental illness characterized by strong curative beliefs that, when disappointed, lead to a sense of threat and hopelessness.
