AbstractFlood disasters often occur in the area of West Aceh Regency (Johan Pahlawan, Samatiga and West Woyla). Several flood mitigation efforts have been carried out in this region. However, often only socialization and handling of a social nature, such as providing food assistance, medicines and relocating residents. however, these efforts have not been able to help the community as a whole from the flood disaster. This study identifies the various roles of social capital (habitus, capital and the realm) that exist in local communities in responding to the flood disaster in Aceh Barat District. This study uses a qualitative approach using interview, observation and documentation data collection methods in the three sub-districts most frequently affected by floods in Aceh Barat District. The three districts are Johan Pahlawan, Samatiga and West Woyla. The theoretical study used in this study is social capital from Pierre Bourdieu, where the role and awareness of the community in flood disaster mitigation are assumed to be a dialectical process (habitus, capital and domain) and through time travel (historical processes and habits) which are also influenced by the environment the social (realm) that shapes it. The results showed that, there was a strengthening of social capital in the community in three districts in disaster mitigation, which was formed through a dialectical process (habitus, capital and the realm), although with different characteristics. Social awareness of flood disaster mitigation through time travel (historical processes and habits) and influenced by the social (realm) environment that shapes social resilience.   Bencana banjir seringkali terjadi di wilayah Kabupaten Aceh Barat (Johan Pahlawan, Samatiga dan Woyla Barat). Beberapa usaha mitigasi bencana banjir telah dilakukan di wilayah ini. Akan tetapi seringkali hanya bersifat sosialisasi dan penanganan yang bersifat sosial, seperti memberi bantuan makanan, obat-obatan serta merelokasi penduduk. namun berbagai upaya ini belum mampu membantu masyarakat secara utuh dari musibah banjir. Studi ini mengidentifikasi berbagai peran dari modal sosial (habitus, modal dan ranah) yang ada di dalam masyarakat setempat dalam merespon bencana banjir di Kabupaten Aceh Barat. Studi ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode pengumpulan data wawancara, pengamatan, dan dokumentasi di tiga kecamatan yang paling sering terkena musibah banjir di Kabupaten Aceh Barat. Ketiga kecamatan tersebut adalah Johan Pahlawan, Samatiga dan Woyla Barat. Kajian teoritis yang digunakan dalam kajian ini adalah modal sosial dari Pierre Bourdieu, dimana peran dan kesadaran masyarakat dalam mitigasi bencana banjir diasumsikan sebagai sebuah proses dialektika (habitus, modal dan ranah) dan melalui perjalanan waktu (proses sejarah dan kebiasaan) yang juga dipengaruhi oleh lingkungan (ranah) sosial yang membentuknya. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa, terjadi penguatan modal sosial pada masyarakat di tiga kecamatan dalam mitigasi bencana, yang terbentuk melalui proses dialetika (habitus, modal dan ranah) meskipun dengan karakteristik yang berbeda. Kesadaran sosial terhadap mitigasi bencana banjir melalui perjalan waktu (proses sejarah dan kebiasaan) serta dipengaruhi oleh lingkungan (ranah) sosial yang membentuk ketahanan sosial.

This study aims to find out how the role of the preacher in bringing changes to the social conditions of the people who used to work in the Dadapan prostitution localization, Kediri City. Da'i plays an important role as a propagator of religion to protect the community. Thus, the relationship between the preacher and his community must be close regardless of the background or social conditions of the community. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method and is equipped with George Homans' social exchange theory, namely as an analytical tool to understand and seek clarity of cases so that researchers know more clearly about the phenomenon of da'wah in the ex-Dadapan localization community. The results of this study conclude that the da'wah process that occurs in Dadapan Village in social exchange theory explains that they are willing to interact when the interaction produces benefits for themselves. Therefore, in the dynamics of increasing religious understanding in the ex-Dadapan localization, it is necessary to have a reward given so that people want to interact in discussing religious studies.

This chapter attempts to explore the possibility of building social capital in virtual community(VC) by first introducing the phenomenon, its problems and context, types of VCs and the significance of knowledge sharing. This chapter then presents the process of social capital from a sociological standpoint where two main theories will be used—the elementary theory of social structure and the social exchange theory as the backbone of the arguments. By integrating both theories, a conceptual framework that includes six antecedents to develop social capital is provided. Subsequently, the propositions are expressed in terms of implications to the sociological approach of VC and some conclusions are made by including some future research agenda.

Class Status

Emergent ethnographic research disentangles “social capital” from other components of social class (e.g., material and human capital) to show how class-stratified parental social networks exacerbate educational inequality among schoolchildren. The authors build upon this research by using survey data to reexamine whether certain forms of parental social capital create educational advantages for socioeconomically privileged students vis-à-vis their less economically fortunate peers. By drawing a distinction between the availability of social capital and its convertibility, the authors find that whereas larger stocks of parental social capital accompany higher rungs on the social class ladder, its educational utility is less clearly associated with class status. A possible exception to this pattern pertains to the educational utility of middle-class parents’ ideas about the collective efficacy of influencing school policies and practices. At issue is whether a more inclusive understanding of the material and sociological reasons for educational inequality can spur educationally useful social exchange among parents across social class boundaries.

In this paper an attempt has been made to analyse such dimensions which support or otherwise impact the entrepreneurial environment that perpetuates prevalence of social capital leading to growth of entrepreneurship among the underprivileged class in an Indian State of Odisha. For example, various sources of owner’s capital, entrepreneurs affiliation to community groups, how existence of various forms of support system available for entrepreneurial orientation benefitted Govt.’s role vis-à-vis the social groups perception of existence of state support are discussed so as to derive the role and contribution of social capital for entrepreneurial orientation among the underprivileged class of Odisha particularly at the micro level. In a backward State like Odisha understanding of the existence of social conditions towards preference for entrepreneurship as an occupational choice would pave ways for policy initiative towards realization of widespread entrepreneurial engagement.

The Universe

Realism attempts to discovering and expressing reality and replacing reality by  imagination, dreaming, and legends, the realist writer uses his genius and modernity instead of a fictitious one in observing and expressing details. The school of realism is one of the most fundamental art schools that emerged in France in the mid-nineteenth century and expanded rapidly. Avoiding the imagination and inner inspirations of the romantics and addressing the realities of the universe outsidewere the most basic principles of this school that poets, writers and artists adopted and followed. In Iran and Iraq, poets and writers focused on social issues and the decline and backwardness of their own countries.The literature of each nation reflects the political and social conditions of the nation. Given that the socioeconomic conditions of Iran and Iraq have been affected by the same events in contemporary times, the thoughts and the literary themes of these two literatures are largely similar. Among the prominent contemporary poets of Iran and Iraq are: Nima Youshij and Siavash Kasraei in Iran, Badr Shakir al-Sayyab and Abdul Wahhab al-Bayati in Iraq, pointed out that intense tendencies towards freedom and support of workers and farmers have brought the situation to the attention of the country. This studyis limited to studying four poets (Nima Youshij, Siavash Kasraei, Badr shaker al-Sayyab and Abdul Wahhab al-Bayati). By analyzing realism in the poetry of those four poets, each writer believes in particular realism, describing and expressing the social, political, and the describing the nature from the language of each poet in his own way. In his realistic description, each poet expresses a socio-political dimension more prominently

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the factors influencing knowledge sharing (KS) among information and communication technology (ICT) artisans in Nigeria by adopting the social exchange and social capital theories. Design/methodology/approach Survey research design was adopted. Convenience and snowball sampling techniques were used to select the respondents. In total, 285 copies of questionnaire were distributed, of which 214 copies were considered useful for data analysis, giving a 75.09 per cent response rate. Findings The results show that the gender of the artisans, perceived benefits, social identification, shared language and goals had positive significant and relationships with KS except social identification where the relationship was negative. Research limitations/implications The findings and conclusion from this paper are subjected to a number of limitations. Because the population was limited to a small population and the study adopted convenience and snowball techniques, the results cannot be generalised to all ICT artisans in Nigeria. Practical implications The paper confirms the role of social exchange and social capital theories in interpreting individual’s behaviour in KS and provides useful insights on how to implement good KS practices among the artisans. Social implications This paper could assist policymakers in promoting and implementing KS practices among professionals and quasi-professionals who contribute to the gross domestic product of the country. Originality/value This paper is one of the first pieces of empirical research on KS among information technology artisans in Nigeria that used the social exchange and social capital theories.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to raise questions about the social issues involved in mental and physical health. It highlights how, even where social issues are evident, clinicians and clinical researchers often focus mainly on individual people and what has gone wrong with them. This has the effect of making it less likely that social exclusion and adversity will be taken into account or that clinicians will help to change these. Design/methodology/approach – Three journal papers are summarised. The first one reports an attempt to test whether depression is a result of people feeling defeated and trapped. The second paper reports the results of analysing medical writing about domestic abuse. The third paper discusses the need for trainee clinicians to be made more aware of social conditions that affect people's lives. Findings – It does appear that people who feel defeated and trapped are more likely to become depressed. However, the life circumstances that lead to feeling trapped need more attention. Medical writing about domestic abuse may need to incorporate the broader context so that it is not just seen as a “women's problem”. It may be worth training clinicians about social conditions and how they might help to change them. Originality/value – These papers highlight important links between social exclusion and mental and physical health. There is a key role for clinicians and clinical researchers to be more part of the solution where they sometimes unwittingly help maintain the problems.
