This article aims to explain whether the social movements carried out on the internet are limitedto click activism or merely mere symbolic resistance, or even beyond that? The case of the social movement raised in this study is the Akademi Berbagi Movement based on the internet, especially social media. the movement that combines online and offline gives its own nuances in doing social movements. This study used a qualitative approach with the method of connected ethnography carried out for 5 months. From the results of the research, the Akademi Berbagi Movement is one of the forms of the birth of civil society. The movement that combines online and offline has provided the context, validation and attachment of more participation by volunteers in carrying out social movements, thus giving birth to what is called 'online social movements'. This also complements the concept that Nugroho (2011) refers to as "click activism", with the case of the movement raised in this study, social movements carried out on the internet exceed what is called click activism, and volunterism is done more than just being involved in movement online, but volunterism is also done in an offline context so that this movement is not just "click" but also provides real space for movement.
Abstract-The main purpose of this study is to present the quality of citizens participation in the process of local development in Kutai Kartanegara Regency. It is argued that four main aspects of participation namely access, awareness, control and benefit are the key in determining the quality of participation. By examining these four aspects, it is found that the quality of citizens participation in Kutai Kartanegara refers to placation leader, where the quality of participation at this level is just merely formalism. In other words, the government sets opportunity for dialogue with people to propose program in development process, but it just aims to gain support from the community without any burden to realize the proposed program.
Indonesia experienced communal ethnoreligious conflicts during the political transition from authoritarian era toward a democratic period in 1999-2005. After a decade of violent conflict, the Indonesian government has conducted peacebuilding programs in post-conflict societies in order to redevelop social trust and social solidarity among members of societies that contribute to the peace building process. This study attempts to identify post-conflict societies' quality of social solidarity based on Fessler' study. The study was conducted in Poso Regency, which is a post-religious conflict area. The study employs survey method and has interviewed 373 respondents. The data is analyzed by a descriptive statistic. The results show that Poso people have experienced the collapse of social solidarity due to violent religious conflicts. The majority of respondents feel as part of the community and are always open to open relationships with anyone regardless of ethnic or religious background. Poso young people have positive interpersonal relationships although they have experienced violent conflict, indicating that the Poso community has strong social solidarity.
