PEREBUTAN DIVESTASI SAHAM NEWMONT NUSA TENGGARA (2008-2012)

Fierce competition happened to obtain the divestiture shares in Newmont Nusa Tenggara (NNT). Central government and regional government who are supported by House of Representatives, are fighting each other to control 31% shares of NNT, the multinational corporation that operates in gold and copper mines. When central government agreed to purchase the remaining 7% of the shares from NNT, surprisingly, House of Representatives decide to report government action to Supreme Audit Agency and Constitutional Court. Both institutions ruled that government cannot continue the purchase without House approval as long as it financed by state budget. Government defeat in these terms became crucial point to analyze the relations between state and multinational corporation in the �reformasi� era. Regional government effort to regulate their regions turns out became open confrontation with central government authority. Uniquely, House of Representatives is eager to help regional government to achieve their means. This situation proves that Newmont share ownership is having strategic value for all of the actors who fight for it. House of Representatives involvement in this matter strengthened that this case is not only about economics issue, but also political conflict. Moreover, regional government company partner who possessed 24% shares, owned by Aburizal Bakrie, chairman of Golkar political party. Golkar lawmakers in the House of Representatives, consistently question government decision regarding the purchase of Newmont shares. This paper intends to describe the conflict in chronological way, as well as to analyze the interest of all the actors who compete for the shares. Using theoretical approach from capitalist state concept, we get two main findings from this case. First, government policy to purchase NNT shares has exceeded the limit of relative autonomy in capitalist state. Second, Bakrie is enforcing subjective relations logic between state and capitalist, through Golkar constant intervention to invalidate government policy to purchase of NNT shares. Based on this case, we can analyze number of things, such a

KAJIAN KONFLIK DI KAWASAN HUTAN KONSERVASI: STUDI KASUS TAMAN NASIONAL GUNUNG HALIMUN SALAK

The following thesis titled �Conflict Analysis in Forest Conservation Area with a Case Study on Gunung Halimun Salak National Park� is aimed at investigating further the management of state forest which is marked by unresolved problems, in particular conflict around the forest areas. The appointment of TNGHS as conservation area through the decree of Forestry Minister number 175/2003, in conventional conflict studies terms, has caused conflict escalation, vertically between the government (which is represented by the Ministry of Forestry) and local society. This research explores the root of conflict in TNGHS in general and the case of �villa liar� in the area of Gunung Salak Endah, Kecamatan Pamijahan, Kabupaten Bogor, which is widely known as LokaPurna (Lokasi Purnawirawan). The research focuses on two types of society, namely the local society (those who live in local villages) and public figures. The goal is to comprehend the differences in conflict patterns and resolution efforts, applied by the Ministry of Forestry on the two different societies. It is argued that treatments toward �perambahan� (those who occupy forest areas) vary according to the types of occupiers. Based on Simon Fisher�s theory the author finds a clear differences in the way the Ministry approaches and treats the so-called �perambahan hutan�. Even though the existing law on forestry strictly mentions a non-discriminative principle in law enforcement against offences on state forest areas, the case of �villa liar� demonstrates how the presence of public figures in this kind of conflict significantly affects conflict pattern and its type of resolution. By using qualitative method, the author concludes that the complexity of forest management in Indonesia is largely due to the lack of concern by the related state apparatus who also seems not to be well-prepared in dealing with problems such as different perception on the meaning of conservation, the scope of authority and authority between state institutions, and ownership claim as well as access to forest resources. This is added further by problems such as disparity in authority caused by new law on regional autonomy which has in practical terms cultivated sector egoism and disharmony both between central and regional governments and between various related state agencies. This thesis finds that the basic shortcoming is in the ability of government to communicate and socialize the virtue of conservation, which should be better taken as shared responsibility and be supported by each and every one in the society around the area. Dissemination of knowledge and ethics on environment should be put into public discourse and reformulated into a shared understanding by multi-stakeholders

Johan Galtung is a peace activist which often confronted with facts that put the violence of men as perpetrators and women as victims, although it did not rule out women who are also perpetrators of violence. Therefore Johan Galtung found it necessary to include gender aspects in his study of violence. The research method used is a qualitative method, with literature study used secondary data from books, journals, documents, articles and internet data. As the result on this research found that there are similarities as to whether Johan Galtung thought with numerous streams of feminism that never existed. Telling about direct violence, Johan Galtung puts women at enmity with men. On the other hand, the structure and culture of patriarchy that exist in society also become violent themselves, where the structure of the harsh, legitimized by cultural violence makes violent surroundings. In its efforts to realize peace, Johan Galtung want the equality between the sexes, where there is cooperation and a balance of roles between men and women who all of them lead to the peace process
