摘要

Seno Gumira Ajidarma, through short story “Selamat Pagi Bagi Sang Penganggur,” uses the position of the main character to assess the condition of other individuals who are considered to lose their freedom as a person. As unemployed, the main character - Aku - also has difficulty unlike what is considered identical to his identity but has more freedom than other workers who are in certain structural systems. Through this short story, this paper questions the author's tendency to lead to discourse about the concept of singularity. The point of view of this paper uses the theory developed by Antonio Negri and Jean Luc-Nancy regarding the concept of singularity and identity. This paper found that the author tends to criticize the concept of identity that classifies individuals as commodities that are only seen based on their value. This form of identity occurs because of the power of the global order in the form of capitalism as biopower. Singularity which portrayed on the community that built in the story is offered by author as an alternate. Family as the smallest formable community and imaginary community which formed on “Aku’ universe as the main character is the formed community. In this community, singularity empowers individuals as a distinct and independent subjects.
