The increasing number of Indonesian migrant workers, who are largely Muslims in Taiwan, makes the work environment more diverse. Consequently, the need for diversity management programs such as accommodating religious practices in the workplace has become significantly more relevant. But the extant studies and reports point out those migrant workers, who are largely Muslims, have not been properly accommodated to implement their religious practices in the workplace. The study seeks to understand as how Indonesian migrant workers, who are largely Muslims, experience a kind of deprivation of their religious practices in the workplace. To that end, it uses a qualitative case study method to investigate a group of Indonesian Muslim workers of the X Company who were deprived to observe daily prayers in the workplace. The results of the study evidently found that the employer views that accommodation of such religious practices in the workplace as unreasonable for the company. The results further showed that the accommodation of religious practices of Indonesian Muslim workers was considered as unreasonable because of some important issues such as disruption of job duty, inflexible work schedule, other workers' concern/objection, facility cost and management response/ approach. Accordingly, the study suggests some recommendations. First, the Taiwanese employer needs to sit together with relevant government institutions and religious leaders to formulate a specific policy on the accommodation of religious practices in the workplace. Second, as a single case study, the results of this study might lack of external validity (generalizability). It therefore strongly suggests prospective researchers to do a cross-cases study of this phenomenon or issue. ; Meningkatnya jumlah pekerja migran Indonesia, yang sebagian besar Muslim di Taiwan, membuat lingkungan kerja lebih beragam. Konsekuensinya, kebutuhan akan program manajemen keragaman (diversity management) seperti mengakomodasi praktik keagamaan di tempat kerja menjadi lebih relevan secara signifikan. Tetapi penelitian dan laporan yang ada menunjukkan bahwa pekerja migran tersebut, yang sebagian besar adalah Muslim, belum dapat diakomodasikan dengan baik untuk menerapkan praktik keagamaan mereka di tempat kerja. Penelitian ini berusaha memahami bagaimana pekerja migran Indonesia, yang sebagian besar Muslim, mengalami semacam kehilangan hak melakukan praktik keagamaan mereka di tempat kerja. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi kasus kualitatif untuk menyelidiki sekelompok pekerja Muslim Indonesia dari Perusahaan X yang dilarang untuk melaksanakan shalat setiap hari di tempat kerja. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa manajemen perusahaan memandang bahwa akomodasi untuk praktik keagamaan di tempat kerja merupakan hal yang tidak logis bagi perusahaan. Hasil penelitian lebih lanjut menunjukkan bahwa akomodasi praktik keagamaan pekerja Muslim Indonesia dianggap tidak logis karena beberapa masalah penting seperti pekerjaan terganggu, jadwal kerja yang tidak fleksibel, keprihatinan/keberatan pekerja lain, biaya fasilitas dan respons/pendekatan manajemen. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini menyarankan beberapa rekomendasi. Pertama, pengusaha Taiwan perlu duduk bersama dengan lembaga pemerintah dan pemimpin agama terkait untuk merumuskan kebijakan khusus tentang akomodasi praktik keagamaan di tempat kerja. Kedua, sebagai studi kasus tunggal, hasil penelitian ini mungkin kurang validitas eksternal (generalisasi). Oleh karena itu sangat menyarankan calon peneliti untuk melakukan studi lintas kasus (cross-case study) dari fenomena atau masalah ini.

"Research, politics and activism have traditionally emphasized gender in understanding and combating domestic violence. In recent years, however, increasing attention has been placed on other social factors.
This anthology presents new research that elucidates domestic violence from more diverse perspectives. In the nine chapters, the contributors analyze how types and degrees of violence and abuse can vary depending upon the interplay between such different factors as class, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation. An overarching theme is how we understand and talk about equality, difference and diversity.
The book does not provide an exhaustive analysis of violence in today's multi-cultural Norway, yet it is the first Norwegian book about domestic violence that has diversity as a primary them. The book will be of interest to researchers, students, employees in social services and support organizations and anyone concerned about domestic violence and abuse." - "Forskning, politikk og aktivisme har tradisjonelt vektlagt kjønn for å forstå og bekjempe vold i nære relasjoner. De siste årene har imidlertid andre sosiale dimensjoner fått økt oppmerksomhet.
Denne antologien presenterer ny forskning som belyser vold i nære relasjoner i et mangfoldsperspektiv. I ni kapitler analyserer forskere hvordan voldens art og omfang kan variere basert på et samspill mellom ulike sosiale dimensjoner, som klasse, etnisitet, kjønn, og seksuell orientering. Hvordan vi forstår og snakker om likhet, forskjell og mangfold, er et overordnet tema.
Boken gir ingen uttømmende analyse av vold i dagens mangfoldige Norge, men er den første norske boken om vold i nære relasjoner som har mangfold som hovedtema. Målgruppen er forskere, studenter, ansatte i hjelpeapparatet og andre med interesse for vold og overgrep i nære relasjoner. "

The sole candidate in the local leader election has become a phenomenon in the world of democracy in Indonesia. The sole candidate in the local leader election in Indonesia, is considered a solution to the impasse of democracy since 2015. This phenomenon has become a solution as well as a polemic in the community, because it is full of monopoly power. This study examines the implementation of a sole candidate in the local leader election in Bone Regency and its implications on the democratic process. This research is classified as field research with qualitative methods, while the approach used is descriptive analytic. The data sources of this research are based on primary data and secondary data. Primary data were taken from the results of interviews and observations. The results of this study indicate that the practice of selecting a sole candidate (choosing an empty column) in Bone Regency is not in the same breath as democracy and reduces the interests of the people's sovereignty in electing a leader. Some of the implications that arise include: a monopoly on political parties, injuring the interests of local communities, sole candidate competition which results in harassment and complications of pressure on voters who campaign for empty columns. As a result, people feel that their rights are not taken into account in the local leader election. The implication of this finding is that in responding to the practice of selecting sole candidates as in Bone Regency, there are many problems, so the sole candidate competition must be ended immediately because it is not in tune with the philosophical meaning of democracy.
