Abstract

Optimisation of social cohesion is an important determinant of the participatory empowerment of landless peasants but is often ignored. The intrinsic case study research method was conducted in rural Central Java Province, Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that there are variations in social cohesion that need to be optimised. The function of social cohesion element that influences participatory empowerment the most exists at the community level, followed by the individual and eventually the institutional level. The important elements that encourage social cohesion at the community level are motives, mentality, actions, behaviour, self-awareness, awareness, and morality. While at the individual level, the essential elements belong to enthusiasm, trust, quality and closeness of social relations, solidarity, and social values. Function optimisation is also important to do on the quality elements of social relations and collaboration networks at the institutional level. The program of social cohesion strengthening is very urgent and to be included in the participatory empowerment policy for landless peasants.
