Abstract

The main focus of this research is to describe the expression of identity negotiation that arises from the church's efforts to remain conservative in its doctrine and religious practices, and simultaneously interact with the cultural and religious diversity around it. This research uses qualitative methods with in-depth interview techniques and participant observation to collect data. The results of this research show that the Bengkulu City Evangelical Church congregation at the grassroots level adopts a conservative inclusion approach, where they are actively involved in dialogue and interaction with a pluralistic society and still maintain fundamental evangelical teachings. Negotiation of identity occurs through religious expression that recognizes and respects differences, but still maintains core beliefs and teachings. Factors such as local culture, social pressures, and internal church dynamics play an important role in the formation of this identity. This study provides a deeper understanding of how the Bengkulu City Evangelical Church group, especially at the grassroots, can maintain a conservative identity as Evangelicals in the context of inclusion, while responding to the dynamics of a pluralistic society. Such a religious attitude fulfills the principle of civic pluralism, namely acceptance without negating the authenticity of each individual's identity. The authenticity of the Evangelical Church group in Bengkulu City is manifested in its characteristics, namely conversion, activism, crucicentrism, and biblicism. Meanwhile, their acceptance of other religions is expressed and implemented through relationships and dialogues at structural, organizational, daily and symbolic levels. Fokus utama penelitian ini adalah menggambarkan ekspresi negosiasi identitas yang muncul dari upaya gereja untuk tetap konservatif dalam doktrin dan praktik keagamaannya, dan secara bersamaan berinteraksi dengan keragaman budaya dan agama di sekitarnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik wawancara mendalam dan observasi partisipatif untuk mengumpulkan data. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa jemaat Gereja Injili Kota Bengkulu pada ranah akar rumput mengadopsi pendekatan inklusi yang konservatif. Mereka aktif terlibat dalam dialog dan interaksi dengan masyarakat yang plural serta tetap menjaga ajaran-ajaran fundamental Injili. Negosiasi identitas terjadi melalui ekspresi keagamaan yang mengakui dan menghormati perbedaan, namun tetap mempertahankan inti keyakinan dan pengajaran. Faktor-faktor seperti budaya lokal, tekanan sosial, dan dinamika internal gereja memainkan peran penting dalam pembentukan identitas ini. Studi ini memberikan pemahaman yang lebih dalam tentang bagaimana kelompok Gereja Injili Kota Bengkulu khususnya di akar rumput dapat menjaga identitas konservatif sebagai Injili dalam konteks inklusi, sembari merespons dinamika masyarakat pluralistik. Sikap beragama yang demikian memenuhi asas pluralisme kewargaan yaitu adanya penerimaan tanpa meniadakan keotentikan identitas masing-masing. Keotentikan kelompok Gereja Injili di Kota Bengkulu termanifestasi ke dalam karakteristiknya yaitu conversion, activism, crucicentrism, dan biblicism. Sedangkan penerimaan mereka terhadap agama-agama lain terekspresikan dan terimplementasikan melalui relasi dan dialog-dialog lingkup struktural, organisasional, sehari-hari, dan simbolik.

Abstract

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkritisi praktik politik identitas keagamaan oleh para kandidat dalam Pemilu Indonesia. Peneliti menggunakan metode kualitatif, dengan pendekatan studi kasus kolektif. Hasil penelitian, ditemukan bahwa terjadinya praktik politik identitas keagamaan dalam Pemilu Indonesia disebabkan oleh kecenderungan masyarakat berpolitik sarat dengan pertimbangan agama. Selain itu, praktik politik identitas keagamaan oleh mayoritas memiliki korelasi dengan mayoritarianisme. Penentuan kebijakan berbasis jumlah, seperti yang ada dalam Pemilu, dapat menghasilkan interseksi hingga berpotensi terciptanya pergeseran filosofi politik – dari demokrasi menuju mayoritarianisme. Analisis dilakukan dengan mempertimbangkan teori-teori yang relevan dalam penelitian ini, yaitu kolaborasi konsep public reason dari John Rawls dan wertrational dari Max Weber, konsep politik identitas dari Francis Fukuyama, konsep mayoritarianisme dari Izak Y. M. Lattu, dan konsep demokrasi dari Aristoteles. Kesimpulannya, meminjam istilah Tan Malaka, kecenderungan logika mistika dalam berpolitik di masyarakat perlu dimoderasi melaluisosialisasi dan edukasi untuk mereduksi praktik politik identitas  keagamaan di Indonesia. Selain itu, mempertimbangkan potensi agama dalam memberikan kontribusi yang positif, klaim kebenaran kelompok keagamaan dalam agenda politik perlu diterjemahkan secara epistemik sehingga tidak bersifat eksklusif.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the social construction process as an effort to internalize the value of tolerance in Nyadran through the addition of the word Perdamaian which is then often referred to as Nyadran Perdamaian. This research is a qualitative study using a case study approach in Krecek Hamlet and Glethuk Hamlet. Research data were obtained through the process of in-depth interviews and literature studies. This research results in an understanding that the social construction of Nyadran Perdamaian gives rise to the internalization of the value of tolerance. The value of tolerance in Nyadran Perdamaian is lived through the creation of social reality with the dialectical triad process of Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann. The appreciation of the value of tolerance by the people of Krecek and Gletuk Hamlets is also pursued through the institutionalization of tradition by changing the name to Nyadran Perdamaian. From the findings of this study, it can be understood that good values in tradition can be maximized through the creation of social reality by individuals or humans. The creation of social reality in Nyadran Perdamaian can also be a prototype for other regions to live the noble values in the tradition. This research also contributes to enriching the study of social construction and provides an understanding that values in tradition can be constructed by individuals so that they can be internalized optimally.

Abstract

Many studies have explored indigenous religious believers struggle against world religions domination. However, studies on the employment of virtual space to heighten indigenous believers' tactical solidarity from the Global South remain understudy. This paper explores indigenous religious followers' struggles through access to virtual space as a tactic of everyday solidarity against world religions spatial domination and the state politics of religion in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. It focuses on the efforts of Minahasa indigenous religious believers to advocate for their existence through virtual media collectively. Indigenous religious believers have experienced various forms of spatial domination, such as destroying ancestral sites and ritual places that they consider sacred to realize their beliefs. The single truth perspective has produced the domination of the world religions monotheistic paradigm and the state politics of religion. The single truth has resulted in hate speech, stigmatization, and physical destruction of indigenous religious sacred sites. Through click activism, indigenous religious believers employ virtual media to advocate Minahasa indigenous religions/beliefs. The concept of tactical media is used in this study to analyze how the tactics of indigenous religious believers collectively produce a discourse of resistance critique and discourse on the importance of their places of belief to the public. This study uses qualitative research: observation, in-depth interviews, and literature review to argue that indigenous religious believers have tactically used virtual media as a critical discourse of resistance to the spatial domination constructed by world religious relations and state religious policies.

Abstract

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk melihat Religious Engagement dan Dialog agama dalam ritual kematian orang Toraja, yaitu Rambu Solo. Tulisan merupakan kritik terhadap dialog agama yang dilakukan oleh para elit dan sifatnya struktural. Oleh karena itu sebagai kritik, tulisan ini menempatkan tradisi oral (oral-based) dan ritual sebagai upaya untuk melihat bagaimana ritual kematian orang Toraja menjadi ruang bagi dialog antar agama. Pendekatan dalam tulisan ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan metode etnografi. Pengumpulan penulis lakukan melalui wawancara dan review literatur terhadap teks yang bersinggungan dengan penelitian ini. Dalam penelitian ini, penulis menggunakan teori solidaritas Durkheim dan Ritual dalam beberapa tokoh sosiolog sebagai perspektif untuk melihat bagaimana keterkaitan antara ritual dan nilai-nilai dalam ritual menjadi jembatan untuk dialog antar agama. Melalui tulisan ini, penulis menemukan bahwa dialog antara agama dalam ritual rambu solo’ menempatkan identitas primordial sebagai yang utama bukan identitas keagamaan. Oleh karena itu, ritual berfungsi sebagai ruang interaksi sosial yang di dalamnya orang menemukan dan menciptakan makna (meaning making) dengan individu dan kelompok sebagai suatu komunitas.

Abstract

Minangkabau has often been identified as an excluisve ethnic group.  In contrast to this view, Nias etnic group in West Sumatera has established a peaceful encounter between Christians and Muslim from both ethnic groups. Nias tribe has been in Padang for about 500 years and encouter Islam as the dominant religion of Minangkabau and other wolrkd religion, namely Christianity. This is something new for the Nias tribe because at first they had animistic beliefs. This article aimes to show the social phenomenon of the meeting between the Nias-Kristen and the Minangkabau-Muslim. Nias community has created a new identity in peacefully bridging the community with Muslim community in Padang. This article explores the formation of new identity among Nias-Padang community as bridging and copping mechanisms to live in a multicultural context that based on Minangkabau-Muslim values in Padang. This new identity heled them to adapt and develop in Padang. This new identity is called Hada Nono Niha Wada (Custom of Nias Padang). This change does not only relate to the name used but also includes component that are in the custom itself. The author employs Homi Bhabha’s third space theory to examine the encounter of Nias Padang-Christianity community and Minang-Muslim host community in Padang. The article shows that through social negotiation, Nias Padang-Christianity community in Padang have formulated new identity that different from that of Nias in the Island of Nias and created the third space to copping with Minangkabau culture-tradition. This negotiation resulted in a custom that had a pattern of openness in accepting differences. The third space provides a place for them to build a mindset that can make them survive as a minority that is able to manage differences into a unity that can be accepted by various parties and living peacefully with the Minangkabau-Muslim community in the greater Padang area.

Abstract

This article attempts to look at church-based conflicts using the Critical Leadership (CL) approach in collaboration with Actor Network Theory (ANT) and finds its relevance for communal life. Using an interdisciplinary approach with qualitative methods, the collaboration of CL and ANT found that all resources of religious organizations in conflict situations are networks of actors whose interactions legitimize power and can also be a path to reconciliation. From the lens of CL and ANT, conflicts that result in dualism in church organizations are seen as both a process and a result of actor interactions and relations during the conflict. Therefore, reconciliation can also be used as a process and a result of the CL and ANT mechanisms which then present policy recommendations such as the intensity of structural actor meetings that can produce joint programs for church members, and can also be a path for institutional unification and reconciliation.
