It describes and explains phenomena without manipulating variables or interventions, providing depth of understanding of context, characteristics, and dynamics of events. The success of PKB's agenda setting in Tulungagung was corroborated by the party itself, which won 9 seats in the regional parliamentary body compared to 7 in 2019. More success was accounted for with regard to the comprehensiveness of the process: from internal operations that had closed and later opened meetings, sessions consolidating PKB visions and missions, down to aligning candidate training. Afterwards, it was followed by a string of thematically based events, which took up matters such as agricultural policy, effective political participation of youth, and promotion of small businesses. These activities mobilized different sets of voters and culminated with the grand finale of this campaign. Such multi-dimensional effort outperformed the electioneering goals set by the party, and efficiency of the party's agenda-building operations was more than well attested. The present paper enlightens on how to mount a political campaign and reinforces tailored and inclusive agenda building. Hence, these results provide real practical implications for the political communication and campaigning strategies to enable success at the polls.","PeriodicalId":517597,"journal":{"name":"Social Science and Humanities Journal","volume":"8 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141819537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the extent to which these legal frameworks have enabled gender equality in the country regarding access, ownership, and utilization of land is not well known. This paper assessed gender relations in access, ownership, and utilization of land in West Usambara Mountains Lushoto District, Tanga Region, North Eastern Tanzania. A purposive sampling of 100 respondents (49 men and 51 women) was obtained to participate in the study. A structured questionnaire was used to interview respondents and focus group discussions with key informants were conducted. Qualitative data were analyzed through content analysis techniques including thematic analysis of texts and indexing. Results show that despite a progressive legal framework, women are still marginalized in land access, ownership, and utilization. This is because of the co-existence of dissimilar structures (traditional, formal and religious land laws), as well as long-established traditional that continue to perpetuate gender disparity. It is proposed that efforts should be made to empower women to use the existing legal structures to demand and promote own land rights.","PeriodicalId":517597,"journal":{"name":"Social Science and Humanities Journal","volume":"75 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141819002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the historical and cultural heritage that is important to preserve and utilize optimally is colonial architecture. Commercial buildings with a colonial architecture concept have aesthetic and identity values that are shown through the semiotics of architecture and interior to convey certain meanings, which can attract visitors’ interest in an effort to increase their loyalty. Visitor loyalty is one of the factors that affect the success and sustainability of business (Rahardja, 2022). Research on visitor loyalty to commercial buildings with a colonial architecture concept using a semiotic approach has not been done yet, so it needs to be further studied. The purpose of this study is to examine the loyalty of visitors to the semiotics of commercial buildings with a colonial architecture concept in Indonesia. The research method used in this study is a literature review method to collect, analyze, and synthesize literature that is relevant to the research topic from various scientific sources, such as journals, books, theses, dissertations, and others, related to commercial buildings, colonial architecture, semiotics and visitor loyalty in Indonesia.

While the preparation of teaching materials still requires indicators of the preparation of teaching materials in accordance with the curriculum targets and the level of difficulty of the teaching material. The overall research objective is to create a standardized teaching material product on the theme of Language from elementary to high school level that can be used as a guide for the preparation of teaching materials in the DIY region. Whereas in this year, the research objective is to review the Javanese teaching materials for the theme of Language at the junior high school level for grades 1-3 used in DIY as well as to organize the pattern of teaching materials according to language competence. The theory used as the basis of research is the theory of linguistic competence, linguistic performance along with the theory of language psychology. This research is a descriptive research using data from a junior high school Javanese textbook entitled \"Mardika Basa lan Sastra Jawa\" by Tukijo, et al (Erlangga, 2019). Data analysis was conducted using reading and note-taking techniques. The validation used was content validity while the reliability used expert judgment. The results showed that the Javanese language aspects in the research subject's book still left difficulties and lack of conformity with the Merdeka curriculum.
