The song Gus Dur Pendekar Rakyat portrays the socio-political conditions during the leadership of Abdurrahman Wahid, who carried out reform efforts amid the lingering influence of the New Order regime. Gus Dur presidency was marked by challenges related to potential disintegration and the resistance of New Order sympathizers. Eventually, he was removed from office following the MPR. This study focuses on the construction of Gus Dur’s public image as represented in the song Gus Dur Pendekar Rakyat. Employing a qualitative approach with Fairclough Critical Discourse Analysis method, the research explores how the lyrics build a particular representation of Gus Dur. The findings indicate that the song constructs Gus Dur as a leader who embodies simplicity in governing. His leadership style, reflected in his policies, positioned him as a political target for New Order sympathizers. Nevertheless, his policies were oriented toward the public interest, which contributed to his widespread admiration among the people. Furthermore, the study finds that the use of YouTube and TikTok as dissemination platforms has strengthened public recognition of Gus Dur—not only as an Islamic scholar, former president, and national hero, but also as a figure closely associated with the socio-political dynamics of his era.

Marriage-themed films are a genre that not only depict harmonious and romantic married life but also reflect power relations and socio-cultural dynamics within a society. This study uses a qualitative approach with Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis method. The results show that the film Pasutri Gaje perpetuates and disrupts existing discourses regarding marriage in Indonesia. The discourses it attempts to perpetuate are the underprivileged status of civil servants and the social pressures that arise from the surrounding environment to have children. Both of these discourses are currently close to the reality of Indonesian society. Meanwhile, the discourse being disrupted in this film concerns fertility issues, which can also be caused by the desire to have children, including men who are portrayed as masculine. This is because fertility issues in Indonesia are more detrimental to women. The contribution of this study is that financial issues are the root of problems in married life. Therefore, this research is expected to provide insight for the government in reforming the welfare system for civil servants.

The conferral of the National Hero title upon Soeharto has sparked widespread criticism and controversy where the media play a vital role in shaping public perceptions of the government’s decision. This study aims to analyze how news media frame the discourse surrounding the conferral of the National Hero title on Soeharto. This research employs a qualitative approach using Robert M. Entman’s framing analysis, which comprises four analytical elements: problem definition, causal diagnosis, moral evaluation, and treatment recommendation. The study examines news coverage published by ANTARA and Tempo. The findings reveal contrasting framing patterns between the two media outlets. ANTARA frames the issue as national recognition of Soeharto’s contributions to development and political stability. The controversy is viewed as reflecting different public perspectives. At the same time, the moral evaluation highlights appreciation for historical services, and the treatment recommendation centers on institutional procedures in granting the National Hero title. In contrast, Tempo presents the issue as a controversial political decision amid ongoing debates over human rights violations and corruption. Its coverage underscores the ethical implications of honoring a contested historical figure and argues that the decision is inappropriate given these unresolved controversies. These findings show how different editorial perspectives influence media framing and create competing narratives of historical legitimacy within Indonesia’s political memory.
