“…The dimensions that form this process consist of knowledge and understanding, personal control, identity, joint decision making, as well as the involvement of others [2]. An example of how this concept is implemented involves the transfer of top-down power from a more to a less empowered person or people [4]. This approach is performed for development goals with an emphasis on direct democracy, local independence, social learning, and autonomy in government decision-making [4].…”

The mutual help or soyo practice, which has relevance in modern management systems, is an effort to strengthen the local wisdom values in urban communities that tend to rely on cultural mechanisms. This research aims to show the cultural mechanism that still survives in Javanese urban communities concerning modern management systems development. Meanwhile, the analysis performed was based on data obtained through interviews, observation, and documentation methods. The research showed that soyo is a local tradition that emphasizes the survival of solidarity bonds and mutual help or ta’awun. Furthermore, the practice describes the efforts to maintain community cohesion and solidity amid life’s complexities. The mutual help principle in soyo has also proven to assist the community in achieving goals without fully relying on economic capital and other parties’ intervention, especially from the state. Therefore, a modern management system should be open to the local wisdom values in reflecting how to achieve these goals.

“…This indigenous-based communicative approach to planning is based on the presumption that the present and the future are being formed in inter-subjective learning processes between actors [9]. It is a search for a future scenario where all interests are met to some degree, or at least better than they would if they had not come together [10].…”

Spatial equity: a parameter for sustainable development in indigenous regions

Spatial equity is an ambiguity. In a physical sense it can be the equitable development of land use. In a socioeconomic sense it can refer to the equitable flow of goods and services from one spatial arena to another. But in both senses, this paper contends that spatial equity is a parameter for sustainable development especially in indigenous regions. Spatial equity can, therefore be defined as both a process and an outcome. As process, it involves the redistribution of the overall resources and development opportunities and/or the optimization of endemic or locally existing resources and development opportunities in an indigenous region or area by either the physical integration of all political spaces within it through a planned and rationalized system of physical infrastructure or by the social integration of the same spaces through a network of communicative devices based on indigenous socio-political structures enhanced by electronic technology. As an outcome, it envisions an indigenous region or area where such redistribution or optimization is achieved and sustained through an integrated indigenous socio-political structure, that is, through networked ethnicities such that peripheral spaces, formerly neglected or lacking prioritization, are given equal chances as the center to develop culturally, economically, and politically. This paper looks for a [re]definition of spatial equity through the lens of sustainable development.

“…Current development programs for rural areas increasingly emphasize the collaboration of regional stakeholders in an attempt to turn planning into integrative and participatory processes that have been widely discussed and termed as governance approaches. 11,12 This has made substantial impact on regional policies for rural areas in the EU such as in the LEADER program. Regional policy strategies are consequently increasingly formulated as stakeholder-oriented learning processes and qualitative objective statements.…”

Using stakeholders’ narratives to build an agent-based simulation of a political process

When reviewing the present state of the art in agent-based models of social processes, one may encounter three basic types of models: theory-based models start with a set of assumptions about human behavior and test those assumptions in various scenarios; data-driven models are based on mass data (e.g. census, large surveys) and usually include a large number of agents; a third group of models combines different data sources and may also include qualitative information, that is, text descriptions of human behavior. Pushing this notion further, the motivation of this paper is to demonstrate how an agent-based model of a political process can be designed only using the stakeholders’ own descriptions and observation results. The simulation reproduces the discussions among the stakeholders and their subsequent decisions and is able to react to changes in their general settings. The simulation outcomes are also produced in text format so that they are easily understandable to stakeholders and other users. The simulation can be used to explore different sets of rules for the decision processes and their results.
