Transformasi Struktur Perekonomian dan Kesejahteraan Masyarakat Pedesaan Abbas Effendi There are three points to discuss in this paper. The first is to observe influences of economic-structures transformation on rural society's prosperity. The second is to analyze impacts of production-factors transformation on traditional economic agents. The third is to scrutinize institutional factors' role on prosperity of rural economic structures. In this paper, rural economic structures can be classified into three groups. They are agricultural, non-agricultural and combination of the two. The result shows that (1) transformation of economic structure has positive impact on family's prosperity in rural area. The non-agricultural activities tend to stimulate the creation of the prosperity of rural society than the agricultural ones do. (2) Capital and education are very determining factors to improve rural society's prosperity. In the structures of economic combination and non-agricultural, technology also has significant role in increasing society's prosperity. On institutional role, it is known that KUD (Village Unit Cooperation) in its manifestation has not functioned well as to increase farmers' prosperity.

However, along with the economic recession this success may not continue, even it may be worsened. This study aims to understand survival strategies of the poor people in rural areas. There are at least four strategies done by the poor people. First of all, the poor people work longer to increase their income. Secondly, because of limited employment opportunity in rural areas, they commute to the city to involve in nonfarm activities. In addition, the poor people try to maximize the utilization of household member to get additional money for the household or to lower expenditure. The last strategy is to find additional jobs as the mean to increase their income. In some extends, there are still a lot of poor people who cannot afford all strategies mentioned above, since they have limited access for increasing their income.

Quality of Care dan Hak-hak Konsumen Keluarga Berencana: Review Atas Hasil-hasil Penelitian Agus Dwiyanto This piece of writing is aimed to discuss on how much practice of family planning services have put attention to rights of family planning consumers. The discussion is based on researches carried out either in Indonesia or in other developing countries. In fact, the services in those countries have not given total freedom to clients of family planning to choose contraception devices appropriate to their goals and interests. The services have neither guaranteed the clients' rights to get comprehensive information about contraception nor about family planning services. Furthermore, they have not been capable of giving secure services to their clients. From the discussion, the writer offers some issues of research necessary to examine on purpose of protecting family planning consumers' rights.

Aborsi: Kontroversi dan Pilihan Muhadjir Darwin Abortion is a controversial issue that had been a hot public debate in Indonesia after the Warakas tragedy. This article explores the ongoing debate between the so called pro-life and pro-choice groups, and formulates policy recommendations to overcome the abortion problem. The tough policy against the abortion would not solve the problem; rather it keeps the unsafe-abortion practiced illegally and widely. The Government should be more realistic in dealing with this problem by providing early abortion service at low cost so that women are protected from unsafe abortion.
