Abstract
This research has several objectives. Firstly, to explain the fanner
characteristics as the local society and how is the influences to the adoption of
irmovation. Secondly, to describe how is the government potition and the market
as the source of the irmovation, and the society as the users of the irmovation.
Lastly, to comprehend how is the mean of the irmovation, if the irmovation does
not interpret to the frame of relationship among the government, the people and
the market and also how is the relationship if it has been confront to the different
potition and interest.
This research argue that the relationship among the government, the market
and the societ' concern political economic phenomenon which could affect the
irmovation substantial. Bence, in discussing the phenomenon of the diffusion of
irmovation apply the political economic approach.By this approach, could be
make three possibilities, namely: the irmovation for the government political
interest for the market economic and for the societ' interest.
The fanners position, when were dealt with the government or the market
could be fluctuated agree with the context that occur in the society. In the preproduction
stage the fanner's positions is independence. In the post-production
stage, the farmer's position are always dependent on the businessmen interest. The
government is take the position as the facilitator between the businessmen and the
farmers interest. In the pre-production stage the government position is neutral.
Between the government and the market is inter-dependence. The government
position besides concerning the equality of interest between the society and the
market also does not take the position that the society is the dependence variable.
The businessmen position does not recognize the collective goodness, based
on the culture value and certain ideology, but economic interest. The diffusion of
irmovation that in the begirming have a mean distributing a part of power
specifically is the accumulation of power for the dominance structure. This
finding could be express as the proposition 1: The difJUsion 0/ innovation is
directed proportionate to the accumulation 0/ power. Consequently, the Wider
difJUsion 0/ innovation the higher power acceptance.
The relationship among the government, the market and the local society in
the process of the diffusion of irmovation shows the sinergy. Thus, accumulation
of power is not static any more, and becomes dynamic. This fmding merely
contradiction by Anderson observation (1991 :52) regarding the power concept in
Java culture. Based on these fmding could be express as the proposition 2: 1/ those
three structure (the government, the market and the society) do synergy by using
the equal power mutually, so the total power would be dynamic and becomes
positive sum.
Conclusion, in the begirming the diffusion theory include to the conservative
perspective, because emphasize to importance of the government role, but at the
end arise the dependence. The diffusion of irmovation is not only idealism and has
material aspect that supports the capitals dominance and the businessmen interest.
The most important finding is the sinergy among the government, the market and
the society, so that include to the modern liberal perspective. The government is in
the middle way between two interests. There is individualistic and pluralistic
