    Sejarah Reforma Agraria dan Kemelut Kedaulatan Tanah di Yogyakarta bersama Ahmad Nashih Luthfi & Pitra Hutomo

    (ID) Dalam episode pertama, kita akan mendengarkan dialog menarik antara Pitra Hutomo (praktisi seni, aktivis, pegiat media) bersama Ahmad Nashih Luthfi (sejarawan kajian agraria), yang membahas persoalan sejarah reforma agraria dan konflik tanah di Yogyakarta, dan hubungannya dengan konteks hari ini. Secara khusus, episode bertajuk “Sejarah Reforma Agraria dan Kemelut Kedaulatan Tanah di Yogyakarta” mengupas mengapa kebijakan reforma agraria –yang bertujuan mewujudkan kesejahteraan masyarakat berbasis keadilan –kehadirannya terasa absen dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Berbagai kebijakan agraria, terutama di Yogyakarta, justru terus menerus berpihak pada elit politik.   Menyoal situasi kiwari, Pitra dan Luthfi juga merefleksikan bagaimana gerakan dan inisiatif warga sebagai praktik yang relevan dalam memperjuangkan kedaulatan pangan. Berbagai gerakan tersebut penting dimaknai sebagai kerja-kerja merawat solidaritas dan ruang hidup kolektif warga di tengah krisis pandemi.    Perbincangan dalam podcast ini direkam dalam Bahasa Indonesia. Namun, nantinya episode ini juga akan ditranskrip dalam teks ke Bahasa Indonesia dan Bahasa Inggris (segera!). Jangan lupa langsung meluncur ke Spotify, ya. Selamat mendengarkan!   Seri "Sounds For Sovereignty" merupakan bagian dari program "The World is Our Household!". (EN) In May 2021, art practitioner and activist Pitra Hutomo and agriculture historian Ahmad Nashih Luthfi came together to discuss the history and current-day realities of agrarian reform and land sovereignty conflicts in Yogyakarta. This episode explores why agrarian reform policies, which aim to create justice-based social welfare, are absent in everyday life, as they continue to favour the political elite, particularly in Yogyakarta. Pitra and Luthfi also share their thoughts on how grassroots movements’ continued fight for food sovereignty expanded during the pandemic crisis into a broader civic solidarity movement and communal living spaces.  This conversation was recorded in Indonesian. English and Indonesian transcripts will be shared on our website very soon! Don’t forget to visit our website, or go straight to Spotify.
