Governmentality dan Pemberdayaan dalam Advokasi Lingkungan: Kasus Lumpur Lapindo
Abstrak: This essay examines
the social movement within the upturn of environmental problem in ecological
disaster case in Sidoarjo. Bringing up the new social movement paradigm,
environmental movement is a form of resistance that has never been classified
as a Marxist class consciousness social movement. The author argues that Social
movement could also be the result of the problem rising from environmental
degradation as an effect of state industrialization. As a movement which is not
based on determinism of certain class awareness, collaboration turns into
important factor of civil society consolidation forces. However, NGO initiative
in building alliance with grassroots habitually yields a new problem. The
author proposes that NGO’s endeavor to collaborate with the grassroots in the
name of empowerment, potentially, could fall into a form ofnew subjection,
coined by Foucault, as governmentality.
