About
Dika Supyandi is a critical development scholar whose work interrogates the intersection of digital transformation, agricultural extension, and rural sociology. His research centers on the socio-political implications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, particularly how automation, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things reshape development paradigms and extension practices in the Global South. His most cited work, “Korban ‘Tuhan-Tuhan’ Digital: Garapan Masa Depan Penyuluhan Pembangunan 4.0” (2020), offers a provocative critique of digital utopianism, arguing that smart technologies risk rendering human actors—especially smallholder farmers and extension workers—as casualties of techno-deterministic development models. With 3 citations, this paper has established him as a distinctive voice in Indonesian development studies, challenging mainstream narratives of Industry 4.0 by foregrounding power asymmetries and the marginalization of local knowledge. Supyandi’s contributions lie in bridging critical theory with practical extension science, urging a reimagining of participatory development in an era of rapid automation. His work is essential reading for students and researchers examining the human costs of digital transitions in agrarian societies.
