Abstract
The purpose of this research is to examine the power relations between the stakeholders in the flood prevention project, Banger Polder Project, in Semarang, Indonesia and to observe the influence of these power relations on project and people. And in this sense, I will focus on socialization process of the project which refers to embedding inhabitants in the project to make them aware and part of the project. I believe that the approach of governmentality is a key point in terms of understanding the power network among the actors in the Banger Polder project. Governmentality will lead me to a sense of the relationship between the governments of Indonesia and the Netherlands, the water boards of both countries, and the inhabitants living on the project field, which seem to interfere with each other and are difficult to understand and analyze when viewed from the outside. To collect the data, I have done field visits, literature review and interviews. This research points out how this project relates to the society living or working in the Banger area.
