Interfaith tolerance through the Media of Indonesian newspapers

Purpose - This research is motivated by the reality of the issue of tolerance which is inseparable from the mass media. In the era of information and technology, interfaith tolerance is carried out with the help of technology, namely communication mediated by the mass media. This is because the mass media participates in constructing the reality of tolerance that is presented in Indonesian society with various religions. The mass media arranges the reality of various events of tolerance to become a meaningful discourse.Method - The research method used is framing analysis as a method to dismantle how the media constructs reality. The research data was obtained through news articles about interfaith tolerance in the newspapers Kompas, Republika, and Media Indonesia in 2016-2017 as the primary data, and supporting books or books relevant to research studies as the secondary data. The analysis technique used was the analysis of Zondhang Pan and Gerald M. Kosicki's models per news text on Kompas, Republika, and Media Indonesia.Result - The results of the research show that there are two important things, namely the reality of events and the reality of the media. What is presented by the media is the reality of the media. The reality of the media is not something to be taken for granted because the media actively shapes the reality of interfaith tolerance. The reality of inter-religious tolerance as a sensitive issue is constructed in various ways among the newspapers Kompas, Republika, and Media Indonesia; Each of the Indonesian newspaper media contributes to building interfaith harmony and national integration; Regarding religious tolerance, Kompas framing: Indonesia is a tolerant and harmonious country amidst religious diversity. Republika: Muslims are tolerant people. Media Indonesia: tolerance in Indonesia is still maintained.Implications - The reality of tolerance in the media has implications for tolerance in people's lives, that religious differences are a reality, so their existence must be respected.Originality - This research analyzes interfaith tolerance referring to media framing.***Tujuan - Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh realita isu toleransi yang tidak terlepas dari media massa. Di era informasi dan teknologi, toleransi antar umat beragama dilakukan dengan bantuan teknologi, yaitu komunikasi yang dimediasi oleh media massa. Pasalnya, media massa ikut mengkonstruksi realitas toleransi yang dihadirkan masyarakat Indonesia dengan berbagai agama. Media massa menata realitas berbagai peristiwa toleransi menjadi wacana yang bermakna.Metode – Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah analisis framing sebagai metode untuk membongkar bagaimana media mengkonstruksi realitas. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui artikel berita tentang toleransi antaragama di surat kabar Kompas, Republika, dan Media Indonesia tahun 2016-2017 sebagai data primer, dan buku atau buku pendukung yang relevan dengan kajian penelitian sebagai data sekunder. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis model Zondhang Pan dan Gerald M. Kosicki per teks berita di Kompas, Republika, dan Media Indonesia.Hasil - Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada dua hal penting yaitu realitas peristiwa dan realitas media. Apa yang disajikan oleh media adalah realitas media. Realitas media bukanlah sesuatu yang bisa diterima begitu saja karena media secara aktif membentuk realitas toleransi antaragama. Realitas toleransi antar umat beragama sebagai isu sensitif dikonstruksikan dengan berbagai cara di antara surat kabar Kompas, Republika, dan Media Indonesia; Setiap media surat kabar Indonesia berkontribusi dalam membangun kerukunan antar umat beragama dan integrasi bangsa; Terkait toleransi beragama, Kompas membingkai: Indonesia adalah negara yang toleran dan rukun di tengah keberagaman agama. Republika: Umat Islam adalah umat yang toleran. Media Indonesia: Toleransi di Indonesia masih terjaga.Implikasi - Realitas toleransi di media berimplikasi pada toleransi dalam kehidupan masyarakat, bahwa perbedaan agama adalah sebuah realitas, sehingga keberadaannya harus dihormati.Orisinalitas - Penelitian ini menganalisis toleransi antaragama yang mengacu pada framing media

Framing Analysis of Village Funding Corruption in Media Suaramerdeka.Com in Central Java, Indonesia, 2019

Various corruption cases have occurred in many villages in Central Java, Indonesia. Corruption is mostly carried out by village officials in running the government. One of many factors causing such corruption cases is the existence of village fund assistance. These corruption cases have been published in the mass media, Specifically on online media, i.e. suaramerdeka.com This study aims to look at the media framing of corruption cases that have occurred in Central Java, particularly concerning village funding assistance in various regions through the online media suaramerdeka.com. This study is a constructive paradigm research. The approach method used is qualitative. Meanwhile, the analytical method used is the Robert N. Entman framing analysis model. The findings of this study stated that suaramerdeka.com framed the perpetrators of corruption as village officials. Although it is acknowledged that not all of them are corrupt, the news seems to give the impression that village officials have conducted a lot of corruption. However, on the other hand, the news content of suaramerdeka.com as a local media in Central Java also lacks detail in reporting corruption issues. Moreover, it seems only normative and does not show that it is a strong media in covering corruption cases. The explanation of the news was not very in-depth

Coalition Battle Management Language (C-BML) Phase 1 Specification Development / Paper 08S-SIW-004

Simulation Interoperability Standards Organization (SISO) SIW Conference PaperThe Coalition Battle Management Language (C-BML) is intended to be an unambiguous language for expressing and exchanging plans, orders, and reports across command and control (C2) systems, modeling and simulation (M&S) systems, and robotics systems. In March 2006, the Simulation Interoperability Standards Organization (SISO) approved initiation of a Product Development Group (PDG) to generate a standard and guidance document for C-BML. The PDG laid out a 3-phase development effort to (1) specify a sufficient data model to unambiguously define a set of military orders using the Joint Command, Control, and Consultation Information Exchange Data Model (JC3IEDM) as a starting point; (2) develop a formal grammar (lexicon and production rules) to formalize the definition of orders, requests, and reports; and (3) develop a formal battle management ontology to enable conceptual interoperability across software systems. This paper reports on the technical approach and status of development of the C-BML Phase 1 Specification

A Holistic Approach to Affordable Housing

Lack of affordable housing is a global issue in the 21st century. This is especially prevalent in developing countries, where millions are earning less than U.S. $1-2/day. We use our understanding of engineering and finance to provide a holistic solution for affordable and self-sufficient housing that can be applied anywhere in the world. Our building design integrates active and passive solar power, wind power, and water filtration and collection in order to generate its own electrical power and maintain its own drinking water, respectively. The mechanical and thermal properties of the building materials were tested to meet structural standards. A financial model was then developed for our self-sufficient low-cost housing for families of different income levels

Debunking of fake news in Telegram in 2022: comparative study

The headlines of the leading world media have been changed when the war between Russia and Ukraine started. Debunking of fake news became a key importance in the work of news media as unverified information is leading to the loss of respectability. There are certain procedures of fact-checking that are well-recognized by the international journalist society. Unlike generally accepted rules, Telegram publishing policies differ from many social networks, as in Telegram there is no moderation of published content that gives a great opportunity to produce fake news and as the result of it - quick mass disinformation. Despite the fact that Telegram is one of the fastest growing social networks, there are few studies about debunking fake news in Telegram. Therefore, this research carried out a comparative study between Russian and Ukrainian anti-fake Telegram channels during one week in March 2022, in order to discover the debunking procedures that have been used by the authors of those channels. Along with the researches of content analysis which are introduced by Lasswell and Bardin, the author used, during the investigation, the methodological approaches that gained widespread popularity in the modern era - the era of «post truth». For the purpose of the study, the author sought for the difference in the debunking policies between Russian and Ukrainian channels. In order to understand the intentions of the channels, the author analyzed the emotional, subtextual and allegorical background of the publications. Telegram channels use provocative content in which the researcher found elements of propaganda. This study finds out that there is different content on the Telegram channels of both sides of the conflict. Telegram channels use semantic instruments in order to increase the audience. The findings would be beneficial for the journalist community, as well as for the entire audience, who should take care of verification of information and do better fact-checking.As manchetes dos principais meios de comunicação mundiais foram alteradas quando a guerra entre a Rússia e a Ucrânia começou. O desmascaramento de notícias falsas tornou-se uma importância fundamental no trabalho da mídia de notícias, pois informações não verificadas estão levando à perda de respeitabilidade. Existem certos procedimentos de checagem de fatos que são bem reconhecidos pela sociedade internacional de jornalistas. Ao contrário das regras geralmente aceitas, as políticas de publicação do Telegram diferem de muitas redes sociais, pois no Telegram não há moderação de conteúdo publicado que dá uma grande oportunidade de produzir notícias falsas e como resultado disso - desinformação em massa rápida. Apesar do Telegram ser uma das redes sociais que mais crescem, há poucos estudos sobre desmascarar notícias falsas no Telegram. Portanto, esta pesquisa realizou um estudo comparativo entre os canais anti-falsos do Telegram russo e ucraniano durante uma semana de março de 2022, a fim de descobrir os procedimentos de desmascaramento que foram usados pelos autores desses canais. Juntamente com as pesquisas de análise de conteúdo que são introduzidas por Lasswell e Bardin, o autor utilizou, durante a investigação, as abordagens metodológicas que ganharam grande popularidade na era moderna - a era da «pós-verdade». Para fins do estudo, o autor buscou a diferença nas políticas de desmascaramento entre os canais russos e ucranianos. Para entender as intenções dos canais, o autor analisou o pano de fundo emocional, subtextual e alegórico das publicações. Os canais do Telegram usam conteúdo provocativo em que o pesquisador encontrou elementos de propaganda. Este estudo descobre que há conteúdos diferentes nos canais do Telegram de ambos os lados do conflito. Os canais do Telegram utilizam instrumentos semânticos para aumentar a audiência. As descobertas seriam benéficas para a comunidade jornalística, bem como para todo o público, que deveria cuidar da verificação das informações e fazer uma melhor checagem de fatos

The rhetorical dimension of printed advertising: a discourse-analytical approach

he study of the rhetorical uses of language in advertising can be approached from different disciplines –discourse analysis, media studies, metaphor theory–. Although normally focusing on different aspects according to their objects of study, these fields share two basic assumptions: 1. the recognition that all advertising is clearly rhetorical; 2. the observation that metaphor is a frequent device in this genre (Williamson, 1978; Fiske, 1982; Vestergaard; Schroeder, 1985; Chandler, 1994; Forceville, 1996, 2006; Cook, 2001). Taking this into consideration, this paper attempts to provide a hierarchical top-down model of analysis as a means to examine the rhetorical dimension of printed commercial adverts. For this purpose, I adopt some theoretical and methodological analytical tools provided by discourse analysis and social semiotics, and incorporate elements from advertising studies and metaphor theory. Special attention is paid to studies on visual rhetoric and to representations of one specific trope, metaphor.La aproximación al estudio de los usos retóricos del lenguaje en publicidad puede hacerse desde diversas disciplinas (análisis del discurso, estudios de medios de comunicación, teoría de la metáfora). Si bien suelen centrar su interés en aspectos diferentes de acuerdo a sus objetos de estudio, estos campos comparten dos supuestos básicos: 1. el reconocimiento de que todo el discurso publicitario es claramente retórico; 2. la observación de la metáfora como un recurso frecuente en este género (Williamson, 1978; Fiske, 1982; Vestergaard; Schroeder, 1985; Chandler, 1994; Forceville, 1996, 2006; Cook, 2001). Teniendo esto en consideración, el objetivo de este artículo es proporcionar un modelo de análisis jerárquico y verticalista que permita examinar la dimensión retórica de anuncios comerciales impresos. Con este fin el estudio adopta algunas herramientas teóricas y metodológicas proporcionadas por el análisis del discurso y la semiótica social, e incorpora elementos de los estudios de publicidad y la teoría de la metáfora, prestando especial atención a los estudios de retórica visual y las representaciones de un tropo en particular, la metáfora

The Representation of Terror and Moral Panics: The Media Frames of the European press

People’s attitudes and behaviours are influenced by their perception of Others and expectations towards them, in connection with their social and cultural context. These dynamics are strongly influenced by the information transmitted by the mass media, in their dual role as both mediators of reality and opinion leaders. Sometimes, the information transmitted can be a “distorted reflection” of reality; for example, news about terrorist attacks by more or less organized groups or the murderous anger of a single individual (in our cases, a motor vehicle rammed into the crowd) often serve as a sounding board for certain social issues, such as crime and security for people and communities. This work aims at illustrating, through an analysis on media frames (both iconographic and textual), which types of representations the European press offers to its readers in the narration of certain events linked to terrorism and how such representations can affect (or not) the creation of generalized alarm phenomena (moral panics)

Inelastic Analysis of Mdof Systems Damaged by Earthquakes, Posteriorly Subjected to Wind Load

This paper deals with the analysis of the inelastic response of buildings originally damaged by earthquakes and subjected to earthquake aftershock and wind loading. The overall aim is to establish the effect of wind actions on structural stability. To that end, one four-story bare frame benchmarked by the European Laboratory for Structural Assessment, is subject to various levels of winds and earthquake joint load while monitoring changes on the ductility demand. In this paper is shown that the combined action of strong winds and earthquakes, however its low probability of occurrence, would cause a decrease of strength reduction factors and considerably increase the ductility demand of damaged infrastructure hence inducing additional risks that would otherwise remain unquantified. The paper examines the non-linear performance of Multi-degree of freedom systems subject to various levels of winds and earthquake load and deals with the estimation of strength reduction factors. This is a relatively unexplored area of research which builds on past developments whereby inelastic performance of buildings has been discussed. It also links to various other paths of development such as structural reliability, forensic and control systems engineering. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091675 Full Text: PD
