Built on Hidden Human Backs
This prose reflects on the long history of human exploitation in monoculture industries, from sugarcane plantations in the Caribbean and cotton fields in the American continent to today’s oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia. Although crops and labor systems have changed over time, the exploitation of workers has remained a recurring reality. Plantation workers have long supported industries and national economies, yet their labor, sacrifices, …
Advertising During Sacred Hours
This study examines radio as a reminder for prayer time in Sharia-governed Aceh. Qualitative findings reveal that broadcasting the adhan is not merely a regulatory obligation but also a ritual practice that institutionalizes sacred time. Despite digital competition, radio remains relevant due to cultural familiarity and accessibility. Crucially, the adhan, especially during Ramadan, functions as a strategic temporal window. As a moment of focused…

Leading scholars argue that plantation systems are structurally problematic, making conflict an inevitable outcome. This study challenges that deterministic assumption by showing that conflicts in the oil palm zones are contingent on specific governance practices rather than structurally unavoidable. Drawing on semi-structured, life-history interviews, and document analysis, the study examines agrarian conflicts in one sub-district in Indonesia. …
