Judul: Analisis Gerakan Sosial di Kecamatan Sukolilo, Kabupaten Pati, Jawa Tengah
Abstrak: Social movement for protecting the environment rarely end up with win situation for the community. This study analyzes the achievement of Sukolilo community against the establishment of a cement plant from the point of view of its causal factors, social capital, and stages of the movement. The research carried out by combining the qualitative and quantitative approach of study. The results showed that factors that lead to the emergence of the movement are loss of agricultural land, water resource degradation, ecological destruction of karst mountain, government policies that are not compatible with law, and further its downstream social impact to the community. Strong social capital with its extensive networks, trust and norms are key success of the movement. The movement started from building trust and networks, generating awareness among local community, network expansion, lobbying, advocacy, demonstration, struggle at local state court, until to the Supreme Court that decided local community as the winner (2013).

Judul: Analisis konflik sumber daya alam di Pegunungan Kendeng Utara, Kabupaten Pati, Provinsi Jawa Tengah (Studi kasus : Rencana pembangunan pabrik semen oleh PT. SMS di Kecamatan Tambakromo dan Kayen)
Abstrak: A Natural resources conflict is not new things in Indonesia. Most of the conflicts that occur are because of the differences in a perspectives and interests in resource. This matter is reflected on Kendeng Mountains conflict resources in Pati residence. Development planning of cement factory (PT.SMS) to be established in Pati residence is caused many conflicts in society. This is because the natural vi resources that have existed become the foundation of the people there will be exploited soon by the private parties. The concern is about the extinction of the resources in Kendeng Mountains strongly rejected by the people in developing the cement factory, but the local government and some parties are supported the development of this cement factory. The differences idealism of each actor becomes the main factor of this problem. As a result, conflicts are inevitable. The purpose of this study is to identify the actors involved the conflict about the SDA Mountains Kendeng and analyze a typology of this conflict which is happening in District Tambakromo and Kayen. The method that is used is qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with a snowballing technique and observation the field. The results of the study is to identify the actors who are involved in the conflict of interest SDA Kendeng Mountains into eight groups, there are grassroot organization (pro with cement factory), grassroot organization (contra with cement factory), NGO’s (green party), NGO’s (local party), government (local and national), religious groups, private (PT. SMS), and academics / researchers. While, the conflict that is happened, has a latent characteristics and change fluctuate become manifest as a result of the intervention of other actors.

Judul: Approximation of the Median of Poisson Distribution Using the Relation of Poisson-Gamma Distribution
Abstrak: A major drawback of median is that median cannot usually be defined in closed form, even in the cases where their distribution functions are known. This study gives an approximation of the closed form for the median of the Poisson distribution by using the relation of Poisson-Gamma distribution. The approximation uses elementary techniques based on the monotonicity of certain sequences involving tail probabilities of the Poisson distribution and the Central Limit Theorem. Furthermore, a closed form expression for the mean absolute deviation 􀜧|􀜰􀰒 􀵆 􀜯􀝁􀝀􁈺􀜰􀰒􁈻| is also studied. The median is relevant because of the fact that it minimizes the mean absolute deviation of a Poisson random variable (􀜰􀰒􁈻 by considering median as central tendency.
