CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A.                BACKGROUND

Indonesia is a nation that is actually proud of a nation rich in natural resources, the nation that holds tremendous potential for the culture and the people are great value for the struggle. History has a lot to prove how the spirit and soul of nationalism heroes of our predecessors in the fight for this nation became an independent nation, dignified and independent nation that is able to determine the direction of his life without being a slave to the invaders. But today, Mother earth is crying being grieved to see the condition of its people far from the values of religion, culture and customs were adopted. "Wabilkhusus" behavior and interaction of young generation (read: teens) are expected to be the hope of the nation's youth are very alarming portrait.

Fighting between schools even among universities that have made a hobby weekly, rampant drug among adolescents from starting wearer, addicts, dealers and some have already "successfully" into the city, increasing the number of teens who have sex before marriage are simultaneous with increased abortion, soaring smokers among adolescents, rampant crime cases that the culprit is lack of awareness among adolescents and teenagers to education is the latest portrait of the young generation (read: teens) nation today.

Some sources give a very poor percentage that "Noted, 19 percent of teenagers in Indonesia or about 14 thousand teens, indicated become drug users, Emergency or Standby, Jakarta 45% Adolescent Drug Users, until the year 2010 around 30,32persen occur sex outside marriage in Indonesia, of that number, 15 percent do adolescents. Well 46.19 percent of HIV-positive at an average age of 15 to 29 years. And there are 2.3 million abortions each year are performed Indonesian population, 20 percent are teenagers. If sex continues committed by juveniles, the next few years the population of Indonesia is only filled by grandparents, for teens died from abortion. According to the Global Youth Tobacco Survey 2006, in Indonesia was 64.2 percent of school children exposed to cigarette smoke for them at home. The study  also concluded 37.3 percent of students smoked, and 3 out of 10 students were first smoked aged 10 years ". This phenomenon would be a bad sign for the existence of the nation, if the problem is not immediately addressed.

Seeing the pathetic condition above, this second component shall all nations are obliged to work together in addressing the problems young people (read: teenager) with various real program that is able to keep the behavior, relationships and bad habits above. If ignored, it is possible to sink into the abyss of this nation and a nation that despicable and undignified. How can this nation into a developed nation, and prosperous when the younger generation heir to relay the nation plunged into the behavior and relationships are much distorted. Encourage and engage young people in a variety of activities both social activities and scientific activity is one of the best solutions to keep teens out of bad behavior and relationships. Cultivate scientific activities that are going to make our young generation intelligent generation in science, skills and manners in interaction.

Along with the entry of the current era of globalization, also accompany foreign cultures into Indonesia. At the time of this sophisticated, technological development is not accompanied by a positive foreign cultures coming. Foreign cultures entered into our country freely without any filtration. In general, Indonesian society open to innovations that are present in their lives, but they have not been able to sort out which are in accordance with the rules and norms and which are not in accordance with the rules and norms in force in the Republic of Indonesia.

Indonesian state has norms that must be obeyed by the people; norms include religious norms, legal norms, social norms, norms of decency. Each item has a norm respective role in regulating human life. In general, the Indonesian people now seemed no longer ignore the stipulated norms. Behavior evidenced by the many irregularities committed by many people, such as acts of corruption, stealing, degrading religion, and so on. Cases like that signify the destruction of this nation mentally. So that young people who come to be expected can be worse than the present if the mental retreat is transmitted to young people today. It is already beginning to happen now, the fact that the case is currently a lot of teens who do deviations that are not in accordance with the norms prevailing in Indonesia. They no longer ignore the existing norms. Ease of access to foreign cultures and ease the entry of foreign cultures without any filter made vulnerable young age tempted by things that could harm him. As many blue film into Indonesia, this problem is very negative impact on society, especially among teenagers. Many blue films or pornographic scenes which can accessed easily via the internet. The teens are free to access and watch movies without the supervision of their parents. This raises the adverse implications for the adolescent psyche itself, to watch porn scene, the teens are so motivated to do the things he wants to watch and there is something new that is not supposed to be on trial so wanted to try. If it is happen like this who to blame?

This problem is just one example of a case that is now common in Indonesia. So I as a student wanted the theme "Influence of Foreign Culture for teenager in Indonesia". For more details, I will discuss in chapter further discussion.

CHAPPTER II

DISCUSSIONS

A.    Culture

Culture or cultures derived from Sanskrit which buddhayah, which is the plural of buddi (mind or intellect) is defined as matters related to the mind and human reason.
In the English language, culture called culture, which is derived from the Latin word Colera, is processing or working. Can be interpreted also as tilling the soil or farming. The word culture is also sometimes translated as "culture" in Indonesian. Culture is a way of life that developed and shared by a group of people and passed down from generation to generation. Culture is made up of many complex elements, including religious and political systems, customs, language, clothing, buildings, and works of art. Language, as well as culture is an integral part of human beings so many people tend to think of genetically inherited. When someone is trying to communicate with people of different cultures and adjust differences, proving that culture is learned.[1]

B.     Teenagers

Teenager  is often associated with myths and stereotypes about the irregularities and inappropriate. This can be seen from the many theories that discuss the development of disharmony, emotional disorders and behavioral disorders as a result of the pressures experienced by adolescents because of the changes that happened to him or due to changes in the environment. In line with the changes that occur in adolescents, they are also faced with the different tasks of the task in childhood. As is known, in every phase of development, including in adolescence, individuals have developmental tasks that must be met. If these tasks well done, it will be achieved satisfaction, happiness and acceptance of the environment. The success of individuals fulfilling these tasks will determine the success of the individual meets the developmental tasks in the next phase.

Hurlock (1973) provides limits Teenager based on chronological age, which is between 13 to 18 years. According Thornburgh (1982), the age limit is the traditional boundaries, while contemporary course restrict their teens between 11 to 22 years. Social changes such as the tendency of children of pre-teens to behave as indicated teen makes contemporary adherents of entering them in the teen category. There is an increasing tendency of young people to continue their education or job training (internship) after finishing high school, making individuals aged 19 to 22 years are also included in the a teenager group, with the consideration that the teenager identity formation continues throughout the life span.

Furthermore Thornburgh divide adolescence into three groups, namely:

1.      Early teenagers: between 11 to 13 years

2.      Mid teens: between 14 to 16 years

3.      Late teenager: between 17 to 19 years.

At that age, developmental tasks that must be met are as follows:

1.      Achieve a new relationship and more ripe with peers both same-sex and opposite sex

2.      Achieving social roles of masculine and feminine

3.      Accept the physical state and can use them effectively

4.      Achieving emotional independence from parents and other adults

5.      Achieving certainty to be economically independent

6.      Select the job and prepare for work

7.      Prepare to enter into marriage and family life

8.      Develop the ability and intellectual concepts for achieving competence as a citizen

9.      Desiring and achieving behavior socially responsible

10.  Obtain a series of value system and ethics as a code of conduct (Havighurst in Hurlock, 1973).

Not all teenagers can fulfill these tasks well. According to Hurlock (1973) there are some problems experienced by teenagers in fulfilling these tasks, namely:

1.         Personal problems, is problems related to the situation at home, school, physical condition, appearance, emotional, social adjustment, duties and values.

2.         Problem typical teenager, namely the problems that arise due to the unclear status in teenagers, such as the attainment of independence issues, misconceptions or stereotypes based on erroneous assessment, the rights of the larger and fewer obligations imposed by parents.

Elkind and Postman (in Fuhrmann, 1990) mentions the phenomenon of the end of the twentieth century, namely the development of equality of treatment and hope to children and adults. Children today flooded the stress that comes from rapid social change and confuse the public as well as the expectations they perform adult roles before they cook psychologically to deal with it. These pressures consequences such as school failure, drug abuse, depression and suicide, somatic complaints and chronic grief.

Further, he said that people in today's era of advanced technology requires a person who is very competent and skilled to manage these technologies. Inability teens keep up with technology that can make them so quickly feel like a failure, embarrassment, loss of self-esteem, and emotional disorders.

Bellak (in Fuhrmann, 1990) is devoted to the influence of media pressure on adolescent development. According to him, today's youth are faced with an environment where everything is changing very fast. They are swamped by too much information and too fast to be absorbed and understood. Everything continued to accumulate until it reaches what is called information overload. As a result there is a sense of alienation, despair, absurdity, identity problems and issues associated with the clash of cultures.

The developmental tasks of adolescence is accompanied by the development of intellectual capacity, stress and new expectations experienced by adolescents make them easily susceptible to interference in the form of disturbance of mind, feelings and behavior disorders. Stress, sadness, anxiety, loneliness, self-doubt in adolescents makes them take more risk with delinquency (Fuhrmann, 1990).

The above description provides an overview of how the myriad problems experienced by today's youth. Pressures as a result of physiological development in adolescence, coupled with the pressure due to changes in social and cultural conditions as well as the development of science and technology so rapidly often result in psychological problems such as adjustment disorders or behavioral disorders. Some forms of behavioral disorders can be classified in delinquency.

Development in adolescents is a process for time gold in various aspects to achieve the level of maturity. This process is a process that shows the close relationship between the physical aspects of the psychological development in adolescents.

C.     The Influence of Foreign Culture for Teenager in Indonesian

Indonesia is known as a multi-ethnic state and religion, from where Indonesia has a variety of different cultures. In every culture there are social values and high art. At the current state of Indonesian culture is slowly fading. This because of the development of technology that finally provides a negative impact on native Indonesian culture. With a lot of the development of electronic media, western culture can easily enter Indonesia, so it starts to change mindset and behavior of the Indonesian people, especially teenagers.

Western culture into Indonesia actually has the positive and negative impacts. The positive impact for instance, creativity, innovation of science and technology, life and professionalism discipline, etc. But in this case will be discussed about the negative impact of foreign culture on Indonesian culture, especially among adolescents.

Current technological developments also characterized by the development of culture in Indonesia today. As we have mentioned above that the entry of foreign culture to Indonesia without any filtering. In general, adolescence is a critical age where what he saw fun certainly imitated. Cultures can fit easily through any such television with movie form, video, internet, etc. Currently the internet is not a medium rare again, this tool can be used anywhere and anytime by the user. Usually the community more often to access something new over the internet. This in warnet was occasionally teen porn videos freely without supervision.

The impact of social problems is very difficult for the adolescent; one consequence is increasing number MBA (Married by Accident). Youth lifestyle metropolis seemed to have not been stopped, not to mention the nightlife that has netted our younger generation, no doubt the strength of the negative current in the lives of today's teenagers, trigger teens to try drugs, such as drugs, marijuana, methamphetamine, and etc., not to mention free sex lifestyle.

Lifestyle free sex among adolescents has not uncommon seems we hear, first they watch things that are not appropriate he watched, then raised the curiosity want to try, then make it happen to his girlfriend. This is often the case, and this is worse free sex is not done by one person, but to some people. Causing venereal diseases and AIDS. Unstable young age they are not thinking about the consequences, but the recording is only concerned with their lust.

Parents should instill religious norms are hard and coercive to her children. Because religious norms are norms of the most important and only with one's religious faith can keep away from all wickedness that would harm them.[2] The second thing you can do to force parent’s free sex is to provide education about the dangers of free sex. Between parents and children to be open with each other, the children can tell anything to her parent and freely express their aspirations to his parents. Parents also need to know their children's friends, because adolescence is the age-where we are comfortable hanging out with anyone and find new friends.

In addition, formal education or school have to anticipate foreign cultures by teaching theoretical knowledge and practice, as well as educate children to be children who are disciplined and good morals. We know from television bleak there are some schools that teach to his immoral acts. Like the case of teacher harassment action against his.

D.    Factors Entry of Foreign Culture

1.         Lack of strict guard at the gate region of Indonesia

In the gate region of Indonesia, seems to lack a special selection body can select Cultural Studies Cultural Studies foreign-negative into Indonesia. As there are many pictures and porn videos imported from outside.

2.         Lifestyle which is oriented to the west

Today many Indonesian people who imitate the lifestyle from the west, which is doing free sex, mini dress, free lifestyle without bond. This term is used to couple that no knot. In Indonesia, this lifestyle is not justified because it violates the norms of religious, moral norms, and norms of decency. Sanctions imposed for noncompliance are also quite heavy, especially on the surrounding environment.

3.         Misuse of Technology

As we discussed above that the use of any technology that can facilitate the flow of incoming foreign cultures. Most of the teens abusing the use of this technology in a way that is not true. People can access the negative things they want. This brings a bad thing for those who enjoy it.

E.     Foreign Culture Negative Anticipation Logged

         Indonesia is a nation which has the nation's dignity and self-esteem so high that this nation should not be broken simply because of the negative effects of foreign parties who wish to destroy our nation's next generation mentally. There are some actions that need to be done by the anticipation of the younger generation against foreign influences that are negative are:

1.      Be critical and thorough

2.      Expand science (Science and Technology)

3.      Must be in accordance with the norms prevailing in Indonesia

CHAPTER III

CONCLUTION

A.    CONCLUTION

Teenagers are individuals in the social categories most easily receive updates, positive or negative. Motorcycle gang phenomenon becomes negative example of how easy it is to teenagers involved in violent acts. By the people, especially adults, adolescents often considered different. In fact, contrary to the principles or values held by adults or parents (Soekarno, 1989). According to O'Sullivan (1974), one of the things that distinguishes adults with teenagers is, adults usually will defer pleasure until a future time (differed gratification), while teenagers crave excitement today (spontaneous gratification). What do teenagers who seem not to think about the future become a source of conflict between them and the adults or parents.

Teens are also typically characterized by the nature of easy to adjust to what the ideals or desirable happened to him (Soepardi, 1990). Therefore, the social environment is quite large role in the process of identity formation adolescents.

There are at least three ways of looking at teenagers. First, adolescence as a time of socialization attitudes and knowledge appropriate for certain adult roles. Second, adolescence as a period of transition position and role. Third, adolescence as the owner of "youth culture" enormous influence and may be contrary to the values espoused adults (Parker, 1976).

Adolescents are aware of the importance of a culture as a yardstick against his ours behavior. On the one hand, the main culture provide guidance, direction, support, feeling safe to teens, etc. on the other hand, adolescents also have the desire to be independent. This led its own distinct culture with the culture at large.

The term youth culture show aspects of how a typical teenage life. Competition and protest (alienation and protest) is one of the directives raised by teenagers as part of youth culture. Referrals are usually raised by teens who feel let down by the social conditions that are happening. They express dissatisfaction with social withdrawal or actively trying to change policies and practices. Sequestration is usually shown in a variety of forms of protest, as do mischief and acting apathetic (Grinder, 1973).

Furthermore, Fischer (1976) explains that the formation of youth culture is the result of urbanism. Focusing on urban area population is quite large and heterogeneous will weaken the bond between individuals, social structures, and normative consensus that can lead to isolation, social disorganization and anomie.

Usually these communities are developed on the basis of indulgence at the same thing, such automotive, music, and fashion. They spend free time with his group and develop its own language that is often difficult to understand adults.

The study of groups of adolescents in urban areas is something that is important to be studied thoroughly and systematically, since they are considered as a change agent, successor to the nation.
