Abstract

This study aims to explain Jean Baudrillard's concept of hyperreality specifically the objectification of the subject in the context of contemporary culture. According to Jean Baudrillard, in the world of hyperreality which is controlled by the latest information and communication technology, humans have lost their subjectivity. The object has controlled the subject so that there is no other choice for the subject but to allow himself to be in the control of the object. The objectification character of this subject is evident in the subject's passivity when using the internet, being in front of the television, and also the advertising machine. According to Baudrillard, in the face of these three forms of contemporary culture, the subject has been reduced to an object so that the subjectivity and dimensions of the subject's consciousness become dead. The methodology used in this study is a qualitative method by conducting a literature study. The author specifically explores Jean Baudrillard's writings entitled “Simulacra and Simulation” (1981) which discusses a lot about the concept of hyperreality. The findings of this study are (1) subjects in contemporary culture have been reduced to objects through the simulation and simulacra skills of mass media technology, especially the internet, television, and advertising; (2) the objectification of this subject can be countered by re-realizing human subjectivity, namely the subject of consciousness.

Abstract

The focus of this paper is on the relationship between the state and religion in the Indonesian political space from the perspective of Machiavelli's state-religion relationship. The relationship between religion and the state in the Indonesian political space needs to be reviewed because in certain contexts religion appears to be more powerful than the state, which itself is more expansive. Machiavelli's concept of the relationship between the state and religion is the starting point for examining the relationship between the state and religion in Indonesia. This paper uses a qualitative approach accompanied by a critical analysis of Machiavelli's thoughts on the relationship between state and religion and the relationship between state and religion as it appears in the Indonesian political sphere. As a result, this paper shows that in Indonesia, religion seems to be bigger than the state in its politics. The power of religion over the state is evident in various facts that occur in society. This fact can only be overcome by curbing the influence of religion by following Machiavelli's thought. Religion is not removed from the political space of the Indonesian state, but is used as a tool that can achieve a better common life while strengthening the state.

Abstract

The focus of this paper is to present the meaning of existentialism according to Søren Kierkegaard in relation to today's contemporary digital lifestyle. Kierkegaard emphasizes individual existence in personal choice and authentic life. This can provide a quality contribution for humans to examine the implications of the digital era on their human experience. The digital age sets aside the fact that humans are driven almost entirely by the virtual reality of social media and digital connectivity. Humans are faced with the challenge of how to protect their identity in an increasingly complex world. Digital platforms can both obscure and illuminate human existence anxiety. It can affect the human self-concept and the dimensions that exist within it. This paper aims to generate an understanding of how Kirkegaard's philosophy of existentialism can navigate the existential dilemma that the digital era brings to humans today. The method used in this paper is a qualitative approach through literature study. The author specifically explores writings about individuals in Kierkegaard's perspective and other supporting sources. The author finds that human efforts to interpret their existence determine the direction of human life. Connectivity in the digital era cannot completely thwart humans from giving meaning to their lives.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of the crowd on the authenticity of faith through Søren Kierkegaard’s philosophy, particularly in the context of modern digital culture and technological advancements. In this era, popular culture and social media have blurred individual identity, fostering banality of faith—a shallow religiosity devoid of personal meaning. This research employs a qualitative method through library research, including a critical analysis of Kierkegaard's works and contemporary social phenomena. The focus is on how crowds push individuals to adopt majority views without deep reflection, undermining personal commitment to faith. Social media exacerbates this condition through algorithms that amplify collective trends, further trapping individuals in superficial religious formalities. Kierkegaard asserts that authentic faith requires personal commitment, deep reflection, and the courage to break away from the crowd's influence. The consequences of faith often demand suffering as a form of responsibility for life choices. Findings reveal that crowds and digital culture significantly contribute to the banality of faith, causing individuals to lose existential desire and the freedom to cultivate an authentic relationship with God. Kierkegaard's insights remain highly relevant, offering guidance toward authentic and personal faith amidst the challenges of modernity.
