Abstract

This study examines the process of economic authority appropriation by the Dutch colonialists in the Riau-Lingga Kingdom between 1830 and 1909, by analyzing a number of contracts. Instead of using physical conflict, the Dutch colonial government chose contractual agreements as an instrument to seize economic power. This research was conducted using historical research methods. The primary sources used were contracts between the Riau Lingga kingdom and the Dutch government, as well as the Perhimpunan Plakat and other sources collected from the Indonesian National Archives, digital libraries and the Balai Maklumat Pulau Penyengat. Furthermore, the historical facts findings were analyzed using a colonialism approach. This study found that the appropriation of economic power took place gradually through legal mechanisms such as customs and excise regulations, shipping permits, and symbolic regulations on the use of the royal flag. This process transformed the Sultan's position from that of an independent economic authority to a symbolic ruler under the control of the Resident of Riau. The main findings show that Dutch colonialism in Riau-Lingga was not merely political domination, but also a process of institutionalizing economic power through fiscal and shipping regulations. This research fills a gap in the historiography of political economy in the Malay maritime region and can be considered when examining colonialization in Indonesian history from a different perspective.

Abstract

This study investigates Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II’s application of da’wah (Islamic propagation) as a socio-political strategy during his resistance against Dutch colonialism, particularly in his exile to Ternate. It addresses a gap in prior research by focusing on the religious dimension of his leadership, moving beyond his military and diplomatic efforts. The study aims to analyze the role of da’wah in mobilizing social solidarity, promoting religious moderation (wasathiyah), and establishing non-violent resistance. This research uses qualitative historical methods and discourse analysis to examine primary sources, historical documents, and interviews with descendants of Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II. The findings show that Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II utilized da’wah as a tool to strengthen social cohesion through institutions like mosques, pesantren, and the Sammaniyah Order. His moderate approach, emphasizing tolerance, justice, and cultural accommodation, united diverse societal groups and preserved their cultural-religious identity under colonial oppression. This study concludes that da’wah was a powerful strategy for integrating faith with social and political objectives. It provides significant insights into the sociology of religion, particularly in understanding the role of religious leadership in fostering unity and resistance. The findings also suggest the relevance of religious moderation in addressing contemporary societal challenges
