Abstract

Tambak Lorok is one of the fishing villages in Semarang that has experienced environmental degradation due to coastal abrasion. This condition causes the Semarang City Government to develop a maritime tourism village as a solution to minimize the impact of coastal abrasion as well as to organize a slum of fishermen villages. However, this program raises new problems for the community, especially small fishermen in Tambak Lorok because many of their housing land and places of business are being displaced and their fishing grounds are becoming further away. This paper aims to explain the resilience of small fishermen in Tambak Lorok in dealing with social, cultural and economic problems due to the development of the marine tourism village program. By using qualitative research methods, this study seeks to explain data analytically. Data collection is done by the method of observation, interviews, and document studies, while data processing is done through the process of data inference, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results showed that social, cultural, and economic problems experienced by small fishermen due to the development of their settlements to become maritime tourism villages can be overcome in various ways namely diversification of livelihoods, utilization of local resources for marine tourism, and participation of family members in meeting the needs of life. This research also underscores the resilience of small fish farmers in Tambak Lorok which is a combination of the strengths of Javanese cultural values, Islamic spiritual values, and the social institutions of small fishermen.
