DISPLACING LEARNING WITHOUT USING VIOLENCE

There is another situation in Ngasem Market, near the Water Castle, Yogyakarta. On April 22, 2010, a number of birds and wildlife traders dressed using traditional Javanese clothes. They were led by Yogyakarta Mayor Herry Zudianto, KONFOI from Market to Market Ngasem Wildlife and Plants Ornamental Yogyakarta (Pasty), Dongkelan, within three miles. Approximately 287 market traders use the 50 andong berkirab Ngasem.

Carnival marks the relocation to the Pasty Ngasem market. Starting that day, tourists to Tamansari unbiased again stopped by the Market Ngasem variety of birds chirping to listen to while drinking coffee in angkringan. Later in the area of the former Ngasem market will stand the market that integrates with Tamansari souvenir.

Relocation is calculated without prior special because the commotion, much less nuanced violent clashes. In fact, Market Ngasem become an icon of Yogyakarta, especially for bird enthusiasts. Tourists also often blusukandi Ngasem market for others to enjoy the atmosphere of a city.

Is this fact that makes traders feel at ease to trade there. But what can I say, they have to move. They became victims of the eviction of a city.
Apparently, success Yogya displacing the merchants should so inspire other regions. Because, these days a number of traders in the Market Gloria, Jakarta is sparring with the local governments because they will be evicted. Spark violence has occurred here and there. Likewise gusur-displacing others to be the color in big cities.

Before studying Ngasem market success, it's worth a moment ponder the roots of violence of any eviction. Look at the examples in Jember. Violence occurs when there are clashes between hundreds of officers Satpol PP Pemkab Jember and PKL (street vendors) are hung on the Road Fortunately Suropati. Two street vendors and three officers were injured when about 300 law enforcement officers do Satpol PP.

Jember PKL Amuk period that is just one example of an animal laborans (Hannah Arendt's term to indicate that work is the demand that human beings can live). In the context of animal laborans amok, we could be disruptive to the theory of Rene Girard.

According to Girard, the anger is a basic structure of human desires. If there is something missing in himself and others have them, will come the desire to get it.

If other people have jobs, temporary jobs forcibly removed him, the desire to get back more passionate. Therefore, the State must think long before eliminating a person's job. Rather than for the sake of aesthetics, the State arbitrarily evicted traders, and apathetic for the rest of their fate.

Ideally, the human issues to be considered first before doing to action.how fate of the merchant if relocated? Policy humanists consider such questions before the execution.

The things that humanists held at displacing Ngasem market. First to be disseminated until cooked. Imagine, the eviction was discourse delivered to the merchants three years ago. In the beginning, of course, traders refused because it would break the chains of business. But with the long socialization, and involvement of government, representatives of the palace, and traders, the relocation could be approved with the guarantee of their future.

Socialization is literally interpreted as an effort to popularize can to become known, understood, and internalized society. To be easily understood, the action becomes important dialogue. The nature of socialization is the dialogue.

In addition to socialization, traders should be guaranteed its future. That is, do not be so moved directly samapai lose customers or subjected to a variety of charge. Therefore, the municipal government of Yogyakarta freeing retribution for the six months ahead and promotions constantly to remind consumers that Ngasem market traders have moved to Pasty in Dongkelan.

For other areas who want to displace, do not ignore the intensive socialization. Then, create victims who still have a life expectancy evicted. The key, not the deadly animal eviction laborans
