Judul: Kelompok-kelompok Klan dalam Pembangunan Desa.
Abstrak: Keniscayaan kebudayaan etnik di Indonesia menyebabkan munculnya kelompok-kelompok klan yang berbeda berdasarkan identitas etnik. Kelompok-kelompok klan etnik adalah sub bagian dari kelompok etnik berdasarkan hubungan kekerabatan yang berasal dari nenek moyang yang sama dan melalui garis keturunan darah. Keterkaitan identitas etnik terhadap kelompok-kelompok klan tentunya mempengaruhi pola-pola hubungan yang terjadi antar kelompok klan khususnya pada aspek budaya, ekonomi, dan politik. Pola-pola tersebut pada akhirnya mempengaruhi relasi antar kelompok-kelompok klan yang menguasai sumberdaya di suatu wilayah. Kehadiran kelompok-kelompok klan yang dipengaruhi oleh identitas etnik yang berbeda tentunya mendorong pembangunan desa melalui aspek-aspek pembangunan berdasarkan kepentingan masing-masing kelompok klan. Adapun aspek-aspek yang ditinjau dalam pembangunan desa yaitu pola penguasaan lahan, pemanfaatan pembangunan infrastruktur, dan objek pembangunan. Tujuan dari penulisan ini adalah mengidentifikasi praktik dominasi kelompok-kelompok klan etnik dan menganalisis pengaruhnya terhadap pembangunan desa. Metode penelitian yang digunakan untuk menggali fakta, data dan infromasi dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kuantitatif yang didukung data kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa masing-masing kelompok klan dominan berperan melalui praktik-praktik dominasi berupa praktik dominasi kedudukan klan, praktik penguasaan struktur ekonomi dan praktik dominasi kekuasaan politik terhadap penentuan objek pembangunan, pemanfaatan pembangunan infrastruktur dan penguasaan lahan dalam pembangunan desa. Dengan temuan ini disimpulkan bahwa praktik-praktik dominasi yang dilakukan oleh kelompok-kelompok klan dominan berhubungan dengan pembangunan desa. Berdasarkan temuan penelitian ini juga, maka disarankan perlunya pemahaman dalam memperlakukan keberagaman kelompok-kelompok klan maupun etnik dalam pembangunan desa untuk tercapainya pembangunan yang adil dan merata.

Judul: Pembentukan identitas etnik dalam arena ekonomi politik lokal di era desentralisasi (pergulatan politik identitas etnik di Kendari, Sulawesi Tenggara)
Abstrak: Despite of various previous researches on local political economy have been done in Indonesia, however, there still few studies which analyze the relation between local political economy as an arena and political realities of ethnic identity. Therefore, this study is aimed to analyze the formation of ethnic identity, ethnic domination practices, forms of strategy, struggle and ethnic identity formation in the arena of local political economy. By applying qualitative research which was supported by quantitative data, research which was conducted in Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi showed that the formation of ethnic identity in the arena of local political economy is individual or ethnic groups habitus, on the line of objectivication and subjectivication continuum of actors who’re interacted each other. Afterwards, liberative democration as choice of democatic system in desentralization era, open opportunity for ethnic mobilization (identity) of actors (elite) on local political economy arena. Therefore, it’s not an astonishment when practises on local political economy arena are always ethnic bias, as shown in practises of symbolic power domination, political power domination practises, and economical power domination practises. In order to sustain the power domination, actors perform a series of strategies, such as: symbolic reproduction, symbolic investment, economical invansion, discourse support, power invansion, symbolic support, symbolic penetration, resistance, discourse reproduction, strategic alliances. Thereafter perpetuating the formation formed on local political economy arena, consisting of domination formation and dominated formation. []

Judul: Isolasi dan pemurnian bahan aktif dari mikroalga BTM 11 sebagai inhibitor RNA helikase virus hepatitis C
Abstrak: Hepatitis C virus is the cause of hepatitis C disease which has high virulence. Recent therapy using combination of ribavirin and alpha interferon has short efficiency < 80%. Thus, the discovery of new drug is needed. Antiviral drugs can be discovered through molecular target therapy by finding the inhibitor of RNA helicase that play role in viral replication. Inhibitor can be derived from chemical compound produced by microalgae. The aim of this research was to isolate the active compound from microalgae BTM 11 which had inhibitory activity against RNA helicase. Inhibitory activity was measured by releasing of phospate inorganic in colorimetric ATPase assay. Crude extract was fractionated using gel filtration chromatography with methanol in chloroform solvent. The result showed that Fraction 3 has the highest inhibitory activity which (81.205%). Phytochemical test of crude extract indicated positive flavonoids and coumarin. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis with eluent chloroform: methanol gave 2 spots with Rf value of 0.8 and 0.37. Moreover, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed absorption peak with the highest abundance at the retention time of 12.483 minute and 16.617 minute was 266 nm and 230 nm. According to these of phytochemical, TLC, and HPLC, inhibitor compound from BTM 11 belongs to flavonoids.
