Power of the Talking Stick

The Power of the Talking Stick makes the case that, reaching back to the beginning of the nation-state and all through the current period of corporate-led globalisation, our governments and social institutions have been engaged in activities that will ultimately extinguish the world's ecological life support systems. This book offers an alternative, listening to indigenous leaders and others whose voices often go unheard in the din of contemporary culture. Sharon Ridgeway and Peter Jacques offer a stark warning, but their insights are firmly grounded in traditional knowledge and provide a way to see past the politics and rescue the earth. An important resource for climate activists, students and academics.

Bukan Salah Bintang Jatuh

"Sahabatku bilang kalau kita melihat bintang jatuh dan mengucapkan permohonan, maka permohonan kita akan terkabul. Saat kebetulan melihat bintang jatuh, aku berniat membuktikannya, dan mengucapkan keinginanku: “Sebuah keluarga untukku...” Dan pada malam sesudahnya, saat bintang jatuh terlihat lagi, aku mengucapkan: “Pacar keren tapi baik hati...” Punya mama seorang artis ternyata nggak menjamin Melly hidup bahagia. Terutama ketika mamanya meninggal karena depresi dan overdosis. Karena tinggal sebatang kara, Melly pindah ke Surabaya, ke rumah sahabat mamanya, Om Wira. Semula Melly tidak betah tinggal di sana, apalagi Rio, anak tiri Om Wira, sangat cuek pada Melly. Tapi penampilan luar kadang menipu. Rio sebenarnya menaruh hati pada Melly, sayangnya Melly telanjur suka pada Josh, cowok idola di sekolah. Dan di saat Melly menyadari bahwa Rio cowok yang baik, Rio malah menjauhi Melly. Permohonan Melly untuk punya keluarga baru telah terwujud. Apakah permohonannya untuk punya pacar keren tapi baik hati akan terwujud juga? Jangan salahkan bintang jatuh bila permohonanmu benar-benar terbukti..."

IT Outsourcing Decisions and Implementations in Malaysian Public Healthcare Sector Agencies

As Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) grows in complexity, there is a call for effective management of ITO relationship to reduce risks. This study integrates theoretical concepts from resources based view and social exchange theory with existing research on ITO to understand the process of ITO decisions and implementations in five Malaysian public healthcare sector agencies, particularly the problems, difficulties, critical factors and relationship management, to develop a conceptual model for understanding the complex relationship. Malaysia public healthcare sector involves complex organisations and managing ITO in this environment is challenging especially for public sector staff. Moreover, inconsistent findings raise confusion and doubt, leaving public managers uncertain about ITO directions and researchers unclear about theoretical perspectives relevant to ITO. This study, therefore, presents an interpretive empirical multiple case studies of the ITO relationship experience in Malaysian public health sector agencies. Qualitative method design for the study includes: (1) a single pilot exploratory case study and (2) a multiple case study of four agencies. The rich evidence obtained is also used to build a grounded theory and explanations for the phenomenon. Moreover, using GT, the study develops an ITO relationship model for better practices in the management of ITO relationship. The main findings from the study are: i) the case agencies adopted ITO for various reasons including technological, economic and business benefits, particularly access to external superior resources competences and capabilities and inadequate competent and capable staff in the agencies and IT division. The agencies can channel limited internal resources to focus on core businesses of healthcare functions and services. Public sector has limited skills competences and capabilities in complex and latest technologies; ii) Public sector is well known for its structured hierarchical organisation involving inter and intra ministries and divisions. In the ITO process, proper committees were formed to evaluate on and manage ITO decisions and implementations. Selective ITO is common in public sector. Service providers were only involved in non-strategic areas such as IT infrastructure and systems development; iii) This study finds that most difficulties and challenges in ITO were due to human factors and IT technical aspects did not cause major problems. Inter and intra relationship management is crucial in those cases. Thus, project management competence and capability is required by both service provider and receiver; iv) For an ITO relationship model, the study summarises ITO strategy, due diligence, structure, stakeholders, contracts/SLAs, governance, resources competences and capabilities, working relationship context, project management and knowledge management as the critical elements in ITO relationship efficacious process. These factors must be given due consideration by service receivers prior to entering any ITO arrangement.

Implementasi Model Evaluasi Formatif Program Pembangunan Sosial (EFPPS)

Pendekatan partisipatif dalam pembangunan sosial telah lama dikenal dan digunakan setelah pendekatan dari atas (top-down) yang dinilai tidak mampu mengembangkan masyarakat untuk berkembang mandiri dan memenuhi kualitas hidup yang diharapkan. Pendekatan bottom upselanjutnya juga mendorong berkembangnya partisipasi dan kerja sama multipihak dalam melaksanakan program pembangunan sosial. Bagaimana sebuah program yang dirancang partisipatif dan kerja sama multipihak juga dievaluasi secara partisipatif? Evaluasi program di tingkat komunitas penting dipahami dari aspek sosiologis, karena pendekatan pembangunan yang bertumpu pada komunitas (community based development) adalah kunci keberhasilan program pembangunan sosial. Model EFPPS (Evaluasi Formatif Program Pembangunan Sosial) dikembangkan untuk mengevaluasi sebuah program yang sedang berjalan dan bertujuan untuk memberi masukan bagi implementasi program pada tahap selanjutnya. Buku ini memberi pengetahuan bagi para peneliti maupun berbagai pihak implementator program untuk melakukan evaluasi secara partisipatif dan aplikatif, sehingga tujuan program pembangunan sosial untuk mencapai keberlanjutan dapat tercapai secara maksimal. Kelebihan dari buku ini adalah bagaimana evaluasi dilakukan dengan mengolah berbagai informasi dari berbagai sudut pandang para pemangku kepentingan yang terlibat di dalam program, baik pihak pemerintah, lembaga swadaya masyarakat, maupun swasta (korporasi), bahkan oleh warga komunitas yang menjadi sasaran dari program itu sendiri. Masukan yang diperoleh dari berbagai pihak dalam evaluasi partisipatif seperti ini diharapkan dapat lebih meningkatkan dukungan bagi keberlanjutan program, dan pada akhirnya meningkatkan kebermanfaatan program yang dikembangkan
