Abstract:

The notion of charisma has been utilized in academic and no-academic discourses equivalent to culture of male power in many aspects. It emanates exclusive crediting charisma in gender discourse. Charisma and women charismatic leadership in organizations, institutions and churches remains concealed in many traditional societies. This culture of charisma that relegates to male power in association with patriarchal culture inevitably exists among the Konyak Naga until now. It is important to reeducating young people and church leaders in religious institution and education center that charisma has no gender bias as it is ?the gift of grace? equally manifested for men and women with no gender limitation. The role of gender in the history of religion and culture effects gender bias in almost every social responsibility sharing. The predominant projection of men as power holders in leadership, socially, religiously and in politics immensely waives charisma in women; the divine gift of grace manifested by women is submerged. In many religious institutions, spiritual gifts manifested by women remain invisible because of the men power that disallows women to express in public. Such power manipulation emerges based on culture and religion. Subsequently, charisma manifested by women and female charismatic leadership become a threat to men which repercussions in violence against women psychologically and physically. Therefore, the research aims to fragment this gender bias attributing charisma to men. This fragmentation pursues to synthesize that charisma has no exclusive manifestation for men; it is an equal manifestation, which is the divine gift of grace for men and women based on social and cultural context of people in the society. Similarly, it applies to women charismatic leadership among the Konyaks which repercussion to the transformation of religion and culture. read more

Abstract:

This paper aims to find and analyze the influence of socio-cultural factors of the local community in a capacity enhancement of disaster preparedness to face the possibility of a future earthquake event. The disaster preparedness components which in this paper embodied as a knowledge and experience variables were also being analyzed to seek for its influence in disaster capacity. The socio-cultural factors of the local community were analyzed and found by conducting quantitative method with questionnaire tool as an instrument and later scored by weighting process. The multiple linear regression analysis was used to define the socio-cultural factors that have influence in disaster preparedness process which utilized as an input in creating a model for future community capacity enhancement. The social institution came out as the only factor in socio-cultural that has the significant influence to capacity enhancement. In addition, the variables of preparedness component which are “the preparation against disaster” and “group membership” have a significant influence in capacity based on multiple regression analysis. Hence, the three variables that respectively found significant for the capacity enhancement process were taken as an input for strategic enhancement model. In order to achieve effective capacity enhancement based on this paper, the social institution which weakened due to the emersion of nonvoluntary assistance (money-induced) between the local people can be distinguished by focusing in the mind-setting of the local teenager to act voluntarily as the form of togetherness between them. In conclusion the enhancement of social institution itself has to be adjusted with disaster drilling and preparation against future disaster event. read more
