This study examines the social and cultural values in the drama script Gerbong by Agam Wispi through a literary anthropology approach. The research is grounded in the role of literature as a reflection of socio-cultural values, with Gerbong selected for its rich portrayal of post-revolution Indonesian societal dynamics, which has yet to be holistically analyzed from an anthropological perspective. The aim is to identify the manifestations of socio-cultural values through dramatic structures such as dialogue, characterization, and conflict. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, analyzing narrative and symbolic elements within the script. Findings reveal that social values are reflected in non-familial solidarity, critiques of revolutionary injustice, humanism amid adversity, and women’s resistance to stigmatization. Cultural values emerge through the gerbong (train carriage) as a metaphor for resilience, collective sacrifice, and a belief in independence preserved through oral traditions. Intergenerational conflicts between colonial and post-independence values highlight cultural dynamics in postcolonial transition. The study recommends integrating the script into educational curricula, exploring its performative dimensions, and conducting further interdisciplinary research on power relations and gender representation.

Children are the next generation of a nation, so that the growth and development of children must be properly considered, not only the responsibility of the family and parents but also the responsibility of society and the state, considering that Indonesia is a welfare state that has an obligation to guarantee the rights of its citizens properly. In this case, including the rights of children in conflict with the law (ABH), even though they are children who have problems with the law, they are children who must be protected to fulfill their rights.

Although there is still a shortage of correctional social workers in LPKA who act as facilitators and bridges for ABH to get education and carry out the rehabilitation process according to the needs of children.

This paper discusses legal protection for children as offenders in the juvenile justice system in Indonesia through a restorative justice approach. The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of this approach and the challenges faced in its implementation. The method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach. The research findings indicate that the restorative justice approach offers a more child-friendly resolution mechanism, protects children from social stigma, and focuses on restoring social relationships. However, its implementation is still hindered by a lack of understanding among law enforcement officials, limited resources, and a legal culture that predominantly favors a retributive approach. A synergy among various parties is needed to enhance the effectiveness of legal protection for child offenders.

In the historical and theological context, the Kingdom of God is understood not as a political or geographical kingdom, but as a spiritual reality present in human life and history. Through an analysis of Mark 1:15, this journal explains that the coming of Jesus signifies the fulfillment of God's plan of salvation and calls people to repent and believe in the gospel. This study also highlights Jesus' use of parables, such as the parable of the mustard seed and the growing seed, which illustrate the growth and characteristics of the Kingdom of God. By emphasizing the importance of repentance and faith, the results of the teachings indicate that the Kingdom of God is cultivating spiritual change in individuals. The conclusions obtained imply that although the Kingdom of God is already present, its full realization still awaits fulfillment in the future. Therefore, this paper recommends that Christians dig deeper into the concept of the Kingdom of God, improving their understanding and application of Kingdom values in daily life as a response to Jesus' teachings.

The rapid development of information technology in the digital era has presented new challenges in the protection of personal data. The government as the state administrator has a constitutional obligation to protect the rights of citizens, including the right to privacy. This study aims to analyze the form of government legal accountability in ensuring the protection of people's personal data amidst the increasing threat of information leaks and protection. The research method used is normative juridical with a regulatory-legislative approach as well as case studies and also the opinions of relevant experts. The research findings show that although there are legal instruments such as Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection, the effectiveness of its implementation is still limited by a number of factors, including weak supervision. The results of the analysis show that although regulations such as the Personal Data Protection Law have been present, implementation in the field still faces various obstacles, both in terms of law enforcement, public digital literacy, and transparency of permits. The government has a responsibility not only normatively, but also factually to protect personal data through policies that favor the public interest. The government is required not only to form regulations, but also to carry out supervisory and enforcement functions effectively and accountably, and sustainably in order to protect fundamental rights. Therefore, the government's legal responsibility must be realized through consistent real actions in ensuring the security of personal data in the digital era.

This study explores the representation and subversion of gender norms in the film Clueless (1995), directed by Amy Heckerling, using Judith Butler's theory of gender performativity. The film blends teen humor with social critique on class, identity, and gender, illustrating how gender identities are constructed and performed through characters such as Cher, Tai, and Christian. By analyzing these characters’ performances, the study reveals how gender is not a fixed identity but a dynamic social construct shaped by repeated actions and societal expectations. Fashion plays a pivotal role in this performativity, highlighting gender as both a stylized performance and a marker of individuality. Additionally, the subversion of traditional masculinity and the critique of gender norms through humor offer alternative portrayals of gender roles. The study concludes that Clueless challenges and redefines gender identities, reinforcing the idea that gender is fluid and performative, thus providing a powerful tool for critiquing and reshaping societal norms.

Dump truck tires are an important component in the operation of wheel-type units that require routine inspection because they directly affect the availability and performance of the transport equipment. In the OHT 777 type unit, six tires are used with a configuration of two tires in the front and four tires in the rear. This study aims to evaluate tire performance through the analysis of Key Performance Indicator (KPI) parameters, namely Ton Kilometer Per Hour (TKPH), Tread Utilization Rate (TUR), and tire life (lifetime), in order to assess the achievement of performance targets. The research method uses a quantitative approach with actual data collection in the field, including the preparation stages, primary and secondary data collection, data processing, and preparation of the final report. The data is processed to obtain the tire KPI value. The results of the analysis show that the TUR value for MICHELIN brand tires is 68.9% and BRIDGESTONE is 70.7%, still below the company's target of 85%. The TKPH value for the OHT 773 unit is 149 (with a TKPH rating of 207) and the 777 unit is 241 (with a TKPH rating of 514). The actual lifetime of BRIDGESTONE tires was recorded at 1,698.6 hm and MICHELIN at 2,268 hm, far below the target of 8,500 hm. Tire damage found included impact (23%), sidewall damage (18%), run flat (18%), bread damage (18%), sounder cut (14%), and foreign object puncture (9%). This evaluation is expected to be the basis for improving tire management, so that tire performance in the future can be more optimal and support the smooth operation of the unit.
