Judul: Migrasi internasional perempuan, penguasaan lahan dan kesetaraan gender: kajian di komunitas Desa Sawah Jawa Barat
Abstrak: International migration of female labors from villages of West Java to Middle Eastern countries, especially to Saudi Arabia, is caused by a combination of lack of job opportunity, lack of land ownership, poverty, the opening of opportunity to work abroad with relatively simple requirement, and much higher wages than it is in Indonesia. The objective of the research is to analyze the linkage between international migration of female labors, land ownership and gender equality in West Java. Paradigm used in this research is Post-Positivism which combines quantitative and qualitative methods. The research is conducted in two villages in two regencies. Data is obtained through in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussion with exmigrants, migrants on leave, and newly ex-migrants, and also with key informants, such as sponsors/middlemen of labor service company (PJTKI), village elites, and traditional, religious, educational and women leaders. Number of respondents is 134 people.The results suggestthatinternationalmigrationof womenfrom both villages is a form ofsurvivalandcopingstrategies of poor rural households who are landless farmers.West Javan rural women, by working as domestic workers abroad, are able to save their family‟s economy, and therefore, have a “strong” position in their communities.There are twotypes ofmigrant familiesin utilizingremittance: (1) those who use itforvariousproductiveandlong-term needs, such as purchasingof land(dry land and paddy rice field), businesscapital, and for continuingeducationof family members, and (2) Families who spendthe money forconsumptive purposes, such as buyingvarioushousehold goods and clothes and for family recreation. Expenses other than the needs forproduction and consumption are expenditures for charities for social, religious and national causes.These charities have become a sort of recognition to the rise of thesocialstatusof migrantwomenin theircommunities.Rationalreasons for buying land are: (1)provisionof daily meals; (2) preparationtobuilda house; (3) businesscapital; (4) saving for the future; (5) for not tobecomefarm labors; (6) as reservefor the event of ngamumule-mulasara; and (7)the cost of educationof family members.The implicationsofruralland occupationbymigrantwomenare: a more equalgenderrelations, the beginning of emancipation citizenshipand a formation processtowards theestablishment ofthe existence ofwoman. The existenceof woman changesgenderrelations to become moreequalat rural family, household andcommunity levels. This is partlyvisiblein form ofdivision of laborbetweenman andwomanin familiesandhouseholds that is nolonger rigidly basedongender.

Judul: Peran wanita migran dalam pengembangan sumberdaya manusia keluarga (studi kasus di Kelurahan Ciracas dan Kelurahan Rambutan Kecamatan Ciracas Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta)
Abstrak: Pendapatan pria dari usahatani di pedesaan sangat rendah dan tidak mencukupi untuk memenuhi kebutuhan hidup rumah tangga, menyebabkan wanita harus ikut mencari nafkah di luar rumah tangga. Keterbatasan kesempatan kerja di desa dan rendahnya insentif ekonomi, menyebabkan wanita meninggalkan desa pergi ke kota untuk bekerja. Peran ganda wanita membuat mereka juga harus tetap bertanggungjawab terhadap semua beban pekerjaan rumah tangga (kegiatan produktif). Sebenarnya kegiatan reproduktif wanita ada kandungan nilai ekonomi, jika melihat dari sisi human capital merupakan bagian aktif artinya menentukan akumulasi modal, eksploitasi sumberdaya alam, dan membangun organisasi ekonomi, social dan politik. Walaupun dasar mekanisme institusional dalam mengembangkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan melalui jalur pendidikan formal, namun demikian pelatihan dan inservice training juga memegang peranan di dalam meningkatkan human capital, dan karenanya meningkatkan produktivitas. Itulah yang melatarbelakangi dan mendorong dilakukannya penelitian ini.

Judul: Sifat ferroelektrik film tipis Ba1-y/2(Ti1-yTay)O3(BTT)
Abstrak: Telah berhasil ditumbuhkan film tipis Ba1-y/2(Ti1-yTay)O3 (BTT) dengan metode chemical solution deposition (CSD). Digunakan spin coating dengan kecepatan putar 3000 rpm dalam waktu 30 detik, dilakukan 5 kali pelapisan. Penumbuhan film tipis BTT dilakukan diatas substrat Pt(200)/SiO2/Si(100) dan Si (100) tipe-p, dilakukan annealing pada suhu 900oC, 950 oC dan 1000 oC. Uji sifat ferroelektrik dilakukan dengan alat Radiant Technology model RT 66 A. Film tipis dengan sifat ferroelektrik yang terbaik adalah untuk penumbuhan film tipis BTT diatas substrat Pt(200)/SiO2/Si(100) untuk suhu annealing 1000oC dengan nilai polarisasi remanen, polarisasi saturasi dan medan koersif masing-mas ing 1,4709mC/cm2, 5,5970mC/cm2, dan 2,9832kV/cm.
