KEMISKINAN MASYARAKAT PEDESAAN: STUDI KASUS DI DESA SANGGANG, SUKOHARJO
Abstract: This paper aims to
analyse the types of poverty found in Sanggang village, Bulu, Sukoharjo District,
the governmental and non-governmental organisations in alleviating the poverty
in Sanggang village. They are cultural, structural and natural poverties. The
cultural poverty can be seen from the minimum participation of people in
poverty in the social organisations, either in the community, in sub-district
or in district level. They have relatively large number children. They tend to
develop a broad family where the husband, wife, children and parents live in one family. They have the long working
hour but their income is relatively low. The poor people have made various
efforts to alleviate their poverty, including cultivating the barren land for
planting cassava or peanuts, and looking for wood in the forest for
substituting oil for fire. The government and private sectors have also done
some efforts by making some programs. Their efforts, however, are not effective
enough to tackle the problems of the rural poverty in Sanggang village. The
programs, nevertheless, have been able to create happiness of the rural
families, especially those suffering poverty.
Keywords: Cultural poverty, Structural poverty,
