Introduction. When Korten
(1993) introduced
the theory
of
people centered development
that respects the
local
knowledge, lot of interest in research
emerged to formulate development plans based on social capital with a participatory approach. Manifestations of community-based participatory development paradigm had lasted
long enough through the program of Neighborhood Upgrading and Shelter Sector Project (NUSSP) and the Urban Poverty Reduction Program (UPRP),
including in the area of Kendari Government. Indeed,
the
poverty rate has declined since 2012 amounted
to 6.4 percent, and even predicted to continue declining until 5.7 percent in 2014 with 76. 81 percent of HDI rate, and unemployment also continued to fall to 3.8 percent (TNP2K/RPRCT
Kendari, 2015). However, the data of poverty rate from the National Program for Urban Community Empowerment (NPUCE) Kendari showed that
it
was
still
remained
25
percent
of poor
households in Kendari (NPUCE Kendari, 2014).
Meanwhile, the
study of
skepticism and criticism greatly came up when
“impoverishment"happened in
various cases of "corruption and money laundry" in which one by one of the actors sent to the Court for
Corruption. Various variables are often claimed to be determinants
ofmentality of development
actors that
significant with the failure of poverty reduction efforts over the years.
Structural and cultural inequality
is often spotlighted by many circles, which then triggered a participatory development
paradigm. However, according to Peribadi
(2015a) the
failure
of
the
Poverty Reduction
Program (PRP) looked more dominant on the users rather than the paradigm itself. Consequently, it is certain
that
moral inequality is significant with the weak of intellectual and spiritual intelligence as the implications of positivism and post-positivism, which
have only revolved around the empirical and rational truth.
