Vol 36, No 1 (2024)

Humaniora Vol 36, No 1 (2024) has been published online. This thematic issue focuses on the Crisis of Care, a topic that has been extensively researched, discussed, and explored by the contributors. The issue specifically examines the crisis of care within the framework of neoliberalism, with a particular emphasis on the connections between gendered labour in both production and reproduction. Throughout the issue, several key questions are raised, such as how workers reach their workplaces and how the future labour force is generated. Additionally, the issue delves into the challenges of caring for older individuals who are no longer active in the labour market, particularly those without pensions.

The Thematic Edition comprises six original research articles and one empirical report, all of which originate from various care settings and geographic locations in Indonesia. The authors engage in discussions about the precarious conditions that caregivers, particularly middle-aged women, face. They also present alternative models of community care that aim to challenge the current commodified system. By addressing the complexities of care work, inequality, and the future of caregiving, this collection makes a timely contribution to the discourse, particularly in Indonesia.

Humaniora is a free and open-access journal that provides selected credible research articles advancing the study of humanities from the perspective of Indonesian or Indonesia-related culture. All the full text (pdf) versions are currently available online.
