Action Research for Sustainability

Social Imagination Between Citizens and Scientists

How can action research further new research orientations towards sustainability? This book, empirically situated in the field of upstream public engagement, involving local residents, researchers and practitioners in bottom-up processes deliberating on urban sustainability, answers this question by analysing processes of social learning. The book addresses the need to move towards sustainability at societal level as a democratic challenge questioning the way we live on planet earth. By conceptualising sustain-ability as an immanent and emergent ability of ecological and social life, continuously to renew itself without eroding its own foundation of existence, it argues that since sustainability cannot be invented but only supported (or eroded) by science, we need to reframe science in the role of sustaining sustain-ability. Through analyses of a three year action research programme, aiming to provide local citizens with a greater say in the future of urban sustainability research, this book shows how action research can make important methodological contributions to processes of social learning between citizens and scientists by enabling free spaces in peoples everyday life and within academia, where aspects of un-sustainability can be addressed and new imaginations of more sustainable futures emerge.

The SuScit project was an initiative specifically seeking to provide local urban
communities with a greater say in how priorities for environmental and
sustainability research are defined, so as to ensure that future research more
effectively addresses their needs. to do so the project methodologically aimed to
develop new forms of collaboration between sustainability researchers,
practitioners and local communities. thus the project provides an example of
upstream public engagement ...

Pers di Masa Orde Baru

Media massa menjadi perantara komunikasi yang selalu dibutuhkan. Kehadirannya memberikan informasi kepada semua kalangan. Kerja keras para pemburu berita untuk menyampaikan peristiwa yang sedang terjadi menjadi sebuah pekerjaan penuh risiko. Saat ini para pemburu berita lebih memiliki kebebasan dalam menyampaikan pendapatnya, memberikan informasinya, dan menerbitkan beritanya. Kebebasan ini merupakan hasil atas perjuangan keras di masa Orde Baru, yang di masa itu kondisinya sangat terkekang-akibat sebuah pemberitaan yang dianggap membahayakan kedudukan orang-orang yang berpengaruh, maka perusahaan Penerbit : an diberhentikan secara paksa dan ditarik izin terbitnya. Hal ini membuat wartawan, mahasiswa, seniman, politisi, kaum profesional, pengacara, dan cendekiawan berdemonstrasi selama berhari-hari di jalan-jalan untuk mendukung kebebasan berbicara dan mengemukakan pendapat. Apa yang sebenarnya terjadi pada kebebasan pers kala itu? Tidak pernah sebelumnya terjadi suatu pemberedelan 'disambut' dengan 'amarah' yang berkepanjangan, baik oleh wartawan dan pengelola media pers maupun pengamat dan pembaca media pers yang merasa prihatin. Belum pernah terjadi dalam sejarah pers di Indonesia, demontrasi yang memprotes pembatasan kebebasan pers terus menjalar dari satu kota ke kota lain, di sedikitnya 21 kota, selama lebih dari satu tahun.
