Abstract

This research aims to explore the shifting of work relations between land owners and landless peasants in Central Java. Besides, it also proposed to find the trend of the impact of shifting work relations between them. The research is designed using the semi-grounded method and phenology based on qualitative approach. This research is intentionally conducted in Purbalingga and Banyumas Regency, Central Java Province. Based on the research results, farmers in rural areas that are relatively far from the city have working relationships that tend to be exploited and are asymmetrical. On the other hand, the relationship of farmers in rural areas near cities tends to be more rational and commercial and symmetrical. The suggestion that can be given is the working relationship between the land owner and the cultivator who is beneficial to both parties needs to be maintained, but for the exploitative nature of work relationship there needs to be continuously empowered so that it does not bring damage to each of the party

Summary

Introduction

Globalization in every aspect of life has led to the uprooting of local wisdom values and the widening of social inequality and ecological degradation [1]. A patron with all of his political power in economy able to received relatively cheap labor services, but he had an obligation to protect his clients when facing various life crises, such as: famine (crisis period), paying school fees for children, death of a husband / wife and or children and so on, but such values are increasingly slackened by the rationality of the owners of farmers who are increasingly become rational. This applies to farmers who own land, especially poor farmers (land tenants) and so on, but such values are increasingly loosened because of the rationality of the farmers and the increasingly rational mindset
