Abstract

This research examines cultural memory and postcolonial perspectives in modern Indonesian novels through a non-empirical qualitative research design grounded in close reading and thematic-interpretive analysis. Drawing on cultural memory studies and postcolonial theory, the study investigates how Indonesian fiction constructs remembrance as a contested narrative process shaped by trauma, ecological imaginaries, diasporic displacement, and institutional heritage politics. The findings indicate that novels function as mnemonic spaces where colonial violence persists through fragmented temporalities, familial transmission of trauma, and symbolic struggles over monuments, museums, and cultural routes. Literary representations complicate civic and state-centered historiographies by foregrounding silenced indigenous voices and ethical tensions surrounding the narration of historical suffering. The analysis further demonstrates that cultural memory circulates not only through institutional infrastructures but also through vernacular practices such as ritual continuity and food heritage, expanding the scope of postcolonial remembrance beyond official commemoration. By positioning Indonesian novels as counter-archives of colonial afterlives, this study contributes theoretically to debates on collective memory and methodologically to interpretive approaches in postcolonial literary criticism.

Abstract

This study examines the Candradimuka Anom Project as an innovative model to strengthen the Youth Development Index (IPP) in Central Java, with a focus on Domain 4: Participation and Leadership. The study is motivated by the low performance of youth organizational participation, social engagement, and leadership indicators, which remain below national targets. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the research relies on document analysis, including the project proposal of PW IPM Central Java, national and provincial IPP data, and relevant youth development literature. The findings show that the program is implemented through sequential stages consisting of recruitment, online bootcamp, leadership camp, and social action projects. These stages are reinforced by collaboration among multiple stakeholders, such as local governments, youth organizations, universities, and community groups. IPM plays a strategic role in mobilizing student networks, providing institutional legitimacy, and maintaining program sustainability. The intervention is projected to measurably enhance social participation, organizational involvement, and youth confidence in public expression. Consequently, the Anom Project contributes to improving Central Java.
