Data were obtained from 400 respondents in four cities: Surabaya, Malang, Kediri and Sidoarjo. We found that the Indonesian urban middle classes in East Java tend to consider the signifying or symbolic value and social pressure as important deciding factors when buying a particular consumer product, rather than its use value and exchange value. Moreover, global-referenced lifestyles and consumption behaviour have influenced the preferences of the Indonesian urban middle class in choosing consumer products. Generally, the global consumerist lifestyle and trends cause them to become more oriented towards foreign products. For some products, especially high-tech products, the Indonesian urban middle class in East Java seemed to prefer branded and imported products over domestic ones. However, for some other non-high-tech products, we found that the majority of respondents increasingly perceived that there was little difference between consuming domestic or branded imported products. Unlike the previous generation, contemporary Indonesian urban middle-class individuals would now purchase or consume domestic or local products, as long as the products met their demand, suited their purchasing power, and had the same quality as foreign-imported products.

Although illegal migrant workers have become aware of their weak bargaining positions because of their illegal immigration status, the desire to earn higher income often leads them to seek employment in neighboring countries. The substantial wage disparities, the difficulty of finding jobs in their hometown, and the need to get economic and social capitals are some primary factors that encourage them to become illegal migrant workers. By using a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods, this study finds that Indonesian illegal migrant workers often face threats and adverse treatments abroad. Moreover, the bargaining position of the Indonesian illegal migrant workers is generally weak. The Indonesian illegal migrant workers often experience verbal, psychological, and physical abuse from their brokers, employers, and local immigration officers. The Indonesian illegal migrant workers survive from the hardship overseas as they take advantage of the social cohesion among their fellow illegal migrant workers to deal with the life pressures and limitations abroad.

Harus diakui, teori-teori sosial postmodern dewasa ini cenderung berada dalam ketegangan pendapat antara kubu yang memandang bahwa teori-teori sosial postmodern masih menjadi bagian dari era modern dan kubu yang meyakini bahwa teori-teori ini telah terpisah sama sekali dari era modern. Kedua pandangan di atas, dengan landasan argumentasi masing-masing, akan dicoba dilacak di dalam artikel ini. Dengan memanfaatkan metode kajian kepustakaan (literature studies), artikel ini pada akhirnya hendak memberikan gambaran kritis tentang posisi penting teori-teori sosial postmodern dalam kajian sosiologi kontemporer dewasa ini, serta potensi kemungkinan-kemungkinan perkembangannya di masa depan.

By utilizing several key theoretical ideas including Durkheim‟s Sacred and Profane, Bell‟s ritual and ritualization, and Whitehouse‟s modes of religiosity, this paper corroborates the previous findings in the religious and sociological studies that the body plays an important role in the construction of identity, including religious identity such as Muslim identity. This embodied or ritualized body, with its characteristics of formality, fixity, and repetition, constructs, upholds, enforces and maintains Muslim identity through its rituals of salat, sawm, and hajj

The purpose of this study was to find out the profile of the perpetrators and victims of incest, the incest relationship that occurred and the responses from the families to the known incestuous relationship in Indonesia. Data were obtained from 137 cases of incest for seven years (2010–2017) reported by a media outlet in Indonesia as well as from in-depth interviews with 14 informants in four cities in East Java, Indonesia, namely Kediri, Nganjuk, Gresik, and Surabaya. The main finding of this study is that most incest victims in Indonesia were young women aged 10–17 years (75%) and most incest perpetrators are their biological fathers or stepfathers (77%) who are on average >50 years old (31%). The cases of incest in this study mostly lasted in more than three years (28%), and experienced by poor (49%) and low educated families (31%). In addition, most cases of incest in Indonesia are known to the perpetrators' wives (9%) and the perpetrators' wives were also the most party who report the incest cases to the legal authorities (63%). The results of this study highlight the need for close attention to the incestuous relationship cases in Indonesia which might affects many young women and underage girls as the victims. The efforts to make policies and programs to prevent sexual violence in the family, by the government and non-government agencies, should take into account the conditions of the incest victims as well as the driving factors for the incest cases that take place in Indonesia.

The purpose of this study is to find out how “thought communities” and “sociomental frameworks” play an important role in shaping the attitudes and actions of religious intolerance among youths in Indonesia. The data in this study were obtained by surveying 500 high school students and in-depth interviews of 50 high school students in five regions in East Java, namely, Surabaya, Malang, Kediri, Pamekasan, and Pasuruan. By utilizing the cognitive sociology approach, this study found that the attitudes and actions of religious intolerance among youths in Indonesia are strongly influenced by the sociomental framework and “thought community” of the dominant majority of the immediate environment. Furthermore, the attitudes and actions of religious intolerance among youths in Indonesia are commonly preceded by a hatred of “those who are different,” although not all cases are like that.

Even though ethnic Chinese have been living in Madura for quite a long time, they are still often considered as “strangers” by most of native Madurese. This study used qualitative data from literature review, field observations, and in-depth interviews with fifty informants of the ethnic Chinese who were born and lived in Madura. This study found that the practice of identity negotiation carried out by the ethnic Chinese in Madura includes several ways: using local language in daily conversation, changing their Chinese names into native Madurese names, practicing the Madurese indigenous cultural traditions in daily life, embracing Islam – the majority religion of the native Madurese – as their new religion, and marrying native Madurese men or women. The findings of this study corroborated prior studies that in unequal inter-ethnic relations, the ethnic minority...

Although students have realized the importance of multiculturalism, in practice they are often ambivalent. This study, which was conducted in 5 cities / districts in East Java with 500 students, found that at the construction level, most students realized that diversity and tolerance become basic prerequisites for the pluralistic life of the nation and state in Indonesia. However, most students generally consider their own safety rather than interfere in persecution that they witness at school. Most students stated they would defend if there were friends becoming victims of persecution or acts of intolerance. However, in reality, they generally still weigh various factors and implications of their actions. In terms of numbers, act of intolerance committed by students may not be too great. However, around 20-25% of students who are intolerant and sympathetic to the radicalism movement ar...

Children who are involved in the commercial sex industry are generally prone to become victims of exploitation, violent acts, and other child abuse.

The researchers interviewed ten prostituted children, seven “grey chickens” (female high school students doubling as prostituted children), eight former prostituted children, five pimps, eight procurers, and seven male customers in Surabaya City and Pasuruan Regency. This study found that, in the Indonesian commercial sex industry, prostituted children generally experience severe exploitation and violent acts. The children’s struggle to survive in the Indonesian prostitution business is a challenging condition because of their weak bargaining position: their subordinate status in the In...
