Ekonomi Global Dan Krisis Demokrasi

Since the fall of the Soviet Union led to the end of the Cold War, democracy and capitalism have become an unchallenged ideology. In the era of globalization, global economy and free market have not directly brought about democracy, and therefore it denies the argument of globalists. As a matter of fact, globalization has increasingly marginalized the roles of state, and even it has replaced them by the non-territorial actors or the super-states, namely International institutions, multinational corporations, and private organizations. Their roles of these territorial actors not only have become so strong and dominant in economy and politics, and therefore they have the power to control the world market, but also have threatened democracy. As a result, the roles of the states are coopted to serve the interest of corporations, and are detrimental for the interest of the citizens. Therefore, conventional democracy has to be redefined because it has not been adequate any more

Agenda Good Governance Dan Globalisasi Ekonomi: Suatu Tinjauan Kritis

In the context of maintaining democracy and civil society, the agenda of good governance are not only implemented by public institutions, but also they are done by both global corporations and global governance institutions

Globalisasi Dan Rezim Demokrasi Poliarki: Kebijakan Integrasi Ekonomi Indonesia

Globalization on the one hand has reduced significantly the traditional roles of the state in the International level, while on the other hand it strengthened the positions of new transnational actors such as International organization, MNC, and society. At the domestic level, in many democratic nations, it changed the quality of democracy in which policies are no longer based on the interests of the people but to protect the penetration of global corporations. This article tries to explain, particularly in the case of Indonesia, how those decisions do not accommodate people as majority but only serve the interests of both local ruling elite and the transnational bourgeois. Democracy which ideally should be able to ensure the participation of the people in the decision making process apparently has been manipulated by a group of minority elites

Designing and Developing Interactive Learning Multimedia Using 3D Game Engine

. This study mainly focuses on the process of designing and developing interactive learning media by using Unreal Development Kit, which basically consists of three main parts, i.e., designing 3D objects, designing 2D objects to be used as UI (User Interface), and arranging them into a level in UDK. The next stage is having subjects to test the level and fill out a questionnaire to find out their interest and response towards the use of this new type of learning media. The subjects are randomly-picked, they are 14 ninth-grade students from several junior high schools aged 14 to 15 years old. The results show that: (1) almost all subjects give positive response towards this type of learning media; (2) this new leaning media is rated 76.9 and 64,2 by media and material experts consecutively, meaning that the media is valid to be used; and (3) all subjects would like to use this media in mobile platforms

Peran Faktor Demografi dalam Pengembangan Hutan Kota di Sumatera Bagian Selatan

Fokus utama peranan hutan kota adalah pada jasa-jasa lingkungan. Sayangnya, kota-kota di negara- negara berkembang menghadapi banyak tantangan dalam mengembangkan hutan kota ini. Faktor demografi bertambahnya jumlah penduduk dipahami sebagai masalah bagi kota dalam mengintegrasikan hutan kota ke dalam perencanaan kota dan pengembangannya. Hasil penelitian di negara maju menyebutkan bahwa justru kepadatan penduduk merupakan potensi dalam pengembangan hutan kota. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan tentang peran faktor demografi dalam hubungannya dengan pengembangan hutan kota. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan makro dan mikro. Cara makro membandingkan kinerja hutan kota antarkota yang berbeda secara demografi, sementara cara mikro mencari tahu perbedaan kinerja hutan kota antarwilayah yang berbeda kepadatan penduduknya dalam satu kota. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kepadatan penduduk sebagai faktor demografi berperan sebagai penghambat dan pendukung pengembangan hutan kota. Kebutuhan luas minimal hutan kota suatu kota sebaiknya dihitung berdasarkan keadaan demografi kota
