Purpose Microfinance institutions (MFIs), including Islamic microfinance institutions (IMFIs) in Muslim countries, have spread across the globe and transformed into a new industry. However, how IMFIs in Indonesia evolved to become an important sector serving society has not been rigorously explored. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to address the lacuna on the emergence of an industry by examining the development of Islamic microfinance sector in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach The paper adopts the historical research method to narrate the evolution of this specific sector based on the data collected through oral history and published academic research documents during various periods of Indonesia’s economic and political milieu. Findings This paper demonstrates that the emergence and development of IMFIs in Indonesia has been shaped within the wider process of socio-political changes, particularly, the role of Islamic movement and politics in Indonesia. Originality/value Most studies investigating the emergence and transformation of institution or industry adopt the static approach, which has been criticised as it fails to consider the process of emergence, growth path and the survival of organisations. Hence, this paper contributes to the literature by analysing the institutional evolution by locating the institution inside its wider environmental context by using Bourdieu’s concept of field to narrate the historical development of IMFIs from its emergence and evolution to become a significant new industry in the country.

Forest has an important role in hydrological process due to its capacity in regulating water. Forest can absorb and storage water in the rainy season and release it in the dry season. Many studies have been conducted to get the insight of hydrological process in a catchment with several land uses. This study aimed to elaborate the relationship between rainfall and discharge (run off and sediment discharge) in Ngatabaru sub sub watershed with forest as the major land use. The result of this research shows that forest could absorb much rainfall in the rainy season and released it slowly in the dry season. The river regime coefficient (the ratio of maximum and minimum discharge) in the case study was 2.5, indicating that water flows continuously all year long. But, the run off coefficient (ratio of discharge and rainfall) was 0.15, indicating that much of the rainfall was lost because of the high evapotranspiration rate of the forest. In the case of extreme rainfall, trend of sediment discharge was more influenced by rainfall rate than river discharge. ABSTRAKHutan mempunyai peran yang penting dalam proses hidrologi karena kemampuannya sebagai pengatur tata air. Hutan dapat menyerap dan menyimpan air pada musim penghujan dan melepaskannya pada musim kemarau. Banyak penelitian telah dilakukan untuk mengetahui proses hidrologi dalam DAS dengan berbagai tipe penggunaan lahan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji hubungan curah hujan dan debit (limpasan dan debit sedimen) di sub sub DAS Ngatabaru, Sulawesi Tengah dengan vegetasi hutan sebagai penutup lahan utama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hutan dapat menyerap banyak air hujan pada musim hujan dan melepaskannya secara perlahan pada musim kemarau. Koefisien rejim sungai (rasio debit maksimum dan minimum) dalam penelitian ini adalah 2,5, menunjukkan bahwa air mengalir sepanjang tahun. Namun demikian, koefisien aliran (rasio debit dan hujan) sebesar 0,15, menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar hujan hilang karena tingginya evapotranspirasi hutan. Pada kejadian hujan yang sangat tinggi, kecenderungan debit sedimen lebih dipengaruhi oleh curah hujan daripada debit sungai.Kata kunci: Hubungan, hujan, debit, debit sedimen, sub sub DAS Ngatabaru

ABSTRAKJawa Barat memiliki keanekaragaman seni dan budaya, salah satunya ialah kriya nusantara berupa batik yang ada di Kabupaten Cianjur. Motif batik Cianjur disesuaikan dengan keadaan alam dan kearifan lokal yang ada dan hal ini menjadi pendukung bagi Kabupaten Cianjur sebagai salah satu destinasi wisata di Jawa Barat. Motif batik Cianjur selain memiliki nilai estetik juga memiliki nilai pendidikan, sehingga bisa dijadikan sebagai media pedagogi estetik bagi masyarakat,. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, metode studi kasus, dengan tujuan untuk mendapatkan gambaran komprehensif mengenai proses pedagogi estetik melalui kriya nusantara batik Cianjur.Kata kunci: pedagogi estetik, kriya nusantara, batik Cianjur  ABSTRACTLocal Wisdom-based Aesthetic Pedagogy through Indonesian Archipelago Craft: Cianjur Batik. West Java is rich of arts and cultural diversity, among others, the Indonesian archipelago craft of batik in Cianjur Regency. The Cianjur batik motif is adapted to prevailing natural condition and local genius that support Cianjur Regency as a tourist-destination in West Java. The Cianjur batik motif has both aesthetic and education values so that it can be used as an aesthetic pedagogy media for society. This study employs qualitative approach and case-study method in order to obtain a comprehensive description of aesthetic pedagogy through the Indonesian archipelago craft of Cianjur batik.Keywords: aesthetic pedagogy, Indonesian archipelago craft, Cianjur batik
