Sociolinguistics in Wales

This volume showcases recent sociolinguistic research about Wales and offers contributions from scholars working on Welsh, English and other languages spoken in the country. The chapters present a range of frameworks and methodologies used in sociolinguistics and apply them to the Welsh linguistic context. This context is very distinctive compared to the rest of the UK and represents a prime ground to observe different aspects of the interplay between language and society. The structure of the volume reflects the linguistic diversity of the country and is divided into three sections. The first section examines recent research on Welsh, the second section focuses on English, and the third section deals with research on Welsh and English together, as well as research on other languages spoken in Wales. The book will be useful to those wanting to discover more about language and society in Wales, as well as to those already working in the field as it offers new perspectives and insights.

The Cambridge Companion to English Poetry, Donne to Marvell

English poetry in the first half of the seventeenth century, an outstandingly rich and varied body of verse, can be understood and appreciated more fully when set in its cultural and ideological context. This introductory Companion, consisting of fourteen new introductory essays by scholars of international standing, provides individual studies of Donne, Jonson, Herrick, Herbert, Carew, Suckling, Lovelace, Milton, Crashaw, Vaughan and Marvell, together with general essays on the political, social and religious context, and the relationship of poetry to the mutations and developments of genre and tradition.

In the English Renaissance, poetic texts were related to their social contexts both
in their original conditions of production and in their subsequent history of
reception through the media of manuscript and print. Since lyric poems, in

Politik Ekologi

Pengelolaan Taman Nasional Era Otda

Konsep “Politik Ekologi” yang digunakan dalam menganalisis pengelolaan taman nasional ialah menekankan peran stakeholders baik pelaku langsung maupun tidak langsaung. Misalnya, pelaku langsung melibatkan pemerintah pusat (Kementrian Kehutanan/Dirjen PHKA-Balai Taman Nasional di daerah), Dinas kehutanan Provinsi dan Kabupaten. Perdebatan kewenangan “pengelolaan taman nasional” di berbagai daerah manjadi isu sentral dalam era Otonomi Daerah (Otda) antara pemerintah pusat dan pemerintah daerah. Dua buku, baik pemerintah daerah maupun pusat mempunyai argumentasi masing-masing. Sebaliknya, pelaku tidak langsung, yakni peran akademisi, lembaga swadaya masyarakat (LSM) baik domestik dan internasional serta masyarakat lokal juga turut berpartisipasi dan gencar dalam mewujudkan isu konservasi, dengan melakukan reforestasi tanaman lokal, pemeliharaan flora dan biodiversity, proteksi fauna (binatang) serta peningkatan program pemberdayaan ekonomi dan soaial masyarakat lokal. Kunci sukses pengelolaan taman nasional ialah dengan menerapkan collaborative management antara berbagai stakeholders kini dan masa depan. Taman nasional merupakan salah satu “perisai” terakhir dalam konservasi sumber daya hutan dan cirri khas ekosistemnya. Dalam kaitan itu, pengelolaan taman nasional oleh Kementerian Kehutanan yang professional dan berkualitas dengan penyediaan sumber daya manusia, alokasi anggaran yang memadai, penegakan kepastian hukum dan pengelolaan berkolaborasi dengan berbagai stakeholders menjadi kunci sukses. Saya merekomendasikan untuk membaca buku ini, karena menarik untuk dibaca dan dikaji bagi siapa saja, khususnya bagi pemerhati dan praktisi sumber daya hutan dan lingkungan di Indonesia. (Dr. Masatoshi Sasaoka-Alumni Departement of Forest Science, the University of Tokyo Research Fellow CIFOR-BOGOR) Buku Politik Ekologi: Pengelolaan Nasional dalam Era Otda adalah produk hasil penelitian lapangan yang “signifikan”, karena dapat mewawancarai mengenai isu konservasi hutan dan biodiversity serta pemberdayaan ekonomi dan sosial berbagai stakeholders yang terlibat dalam pengelolaan taman nasional, baik dari pemerintah pusat (Kementerian Kehutanan), dukungan pemerintah daerah. Balai Taman Nasional (daerah) akademisi, Lembaga Swadaya Masyarakat (LSM) baik domestik dan luar negeri, dan masyarakat lokal. Untuk itu, buku ini menarik untuk dibaca bagi siapa saja yang “ingin mengetahui lebih jauh tentang taman nasional” dari perspketif yang berbeda, dari beberapa buku atau tulisan yang pernah dibuat selama ini.
