PARADOKSALITAS DI BALIK KEMEGAHAN BOROBUDUR

Abstract

This article aimes at exploring the destination organization management of Borobudur temple. The approach method
used in this writing is descriptive interpretative of organization behavior. The data was collected from literature
study, participated observation, and the discussions in the seminars. The research’s fi ndings show that the success
of organizations managing Borobudur has been focused on the fulfi llment of legal and economic responsibilities
rather than social ones, as mandated by the Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises in law Nomor 40 of 2007 and
Law Nomor 10 of 2009. Moreover, it is aggravated by the behavior of urban society, members of which all have
their own interets. Finally, the local community will become more marginalized if the government does not take
any serious actions taken to empower them immediately.
