Solidarity of the Ponorogo Regency Street Vendors Association in Overcoming the Economic Crisis During the Pandemic

Abstrak
Konflik dan permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh pedagang kaki lima sangatlah kompleks. Pada saat
kondisi pandemic covid-19 membuat sejumlah pedagang kaki lima mengalami keterpurukan dari segi
ekonomi. Pemerintah yang menerapkan beberapa kebijakan bertujuan untuk menekan angka covid-19
yang berdampak pada kehidupan berdagang pedagang kaki lima. Dampak lain yang terjadi yaitu
penertiban oleh petugas Satpol PP akibat pemberlakuan jam malam untuk berjualan. Hal itu membuat
sebagian pedagang kaki lima mengalami krisis ekonomi karena sepi pembeli. Kondisi tersebut membuat
solidaritas antar sesama pedagang semakin erat karena terdapat kesamaan kepentingan untuk tetap
mempertahankan dagangannya. Sehingga terbentuknya paguyuban pedagang kaki lima mampu
memberikan wadah bagi pedagang apabila mendapati permasalahan baik secara internal maupun
eksternal dan tetap menjaga solidaritas pada masa pandemi. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian
kualitatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan penelitian Grounded Theory Strauss dan Corbin. Penelitian
ini berlokasi di Kabupaten Ponorogo. Subjek penelitian yakni pengurus inti paguyuban PERPEK-5 dan
pedagang kaki lima angkringan serta penjual jajanan yang berjualan hingga larut malam. Penelitian ini
menggunakan dua teknik pengambilan data yakni secara primer dan sekunder. Data kemudian dianalisis
menggunakan tiga fase pengkodean yaitu coding terbuka, coding axial, dan coding selektif. Teori yang
digunakan dalam penelitian ini yakni Teori Solidaritas Emile Durkheim. Hasil penelitian menunjukan
bahwa paguyuban pedagang kaki lima atau PERPEK-5 memiliki tipe solidaritas mekanik dan juga
terdapat tipe solidaritas organik. Kedua bentuk solidaritas tersebut mampu menjadi pondasi bagi
pedagang kaki lima untuk meningkatkan rasa kekeluargaan dan kekompakan dalam Paguyuban pada
masa pandemi.

Abstract
The conflicts and problems faced by street vendors are complex. During the Covid-19 pandemic, a number of
street vendors experienced a slump in terms of the economy. The government has implemented several policies aimed at
reducing the covid-19 numbers which have an impact on the trading life of street vendors. Another impact that occurred
was the regulation by Satpol PP officers due to the imposition of a curfew for selling. This has caused some street vendors
to experience an economic crisis because there are few buyers. This condition makes solidarity between fellow traders closer
because there are similar interests to maintain their trade. So that the formation of a street vendor association is able to
provide a forum for traders if they find problems both internally and externally and still maintain solidarity during the
pandemic. This research is a qualitative research using the Grounded Theory research approach of Strauss and Cobin.
This research is located in Ponorogo Regency. The subjects of the study were the core management of the PERPEK-5
association and angkringan street vendors and snack sellers who sold late into the night. This study used two data
collection techniques, namely primary and secondary. The data was then analyzed using three coding phases, namely open
coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The theory used in this study is Emile Durkheim's Theory of Solidarity. The
results showed that the PERPEK-5 street vendors association had a mechanical solidarity type and there was also an
organic solidarity type. The two forms of solidarity are able to become a foundation for street vendors to increase the sense
of family and cohesion in the Paguyuban.
