Abstract

This study was motivated by interest in reviewing the combat experience of military figures General Ulysses S. Grant During the United States Civil War and its Devoted to Strengthening the System and Defense Doctrine Models in Indonesia that already exist; Sishankamrata. This study uses a mixed methods approach. The results showed that General Grant's combat experience in civil war in the United States had a significant influence on its success in winning the Mexican war, with a very strong correlation (R = 0.979). This finding can be interpreted that experience in the battlefield contributes greatly to forming strategic intuition, the effectiveness of decision making, and the ability of individual military leadership. The novelty of this study lies in the use of the Mixed Methods approach which integratively examines the relationship between combat experience and the development of military strategies in a historical and contemporary perspective. This study made an important contribution as a reference to the strengthening of the doctrine and implementation of the defense and security system of the people's universe (Sishankamrata) in Indonesia. The implications of this finding underline the importance of integration of experience -based learning in education and training in military leadership, the need to build military strategic leadership capacity that is not only based on theory, but the importance of empirical experience, both through military training, learning from war history, and combat operation experience. Suggestions for further research are that similar studies are carried out on more military figures from various so as to get a more comprehensive picture of how individual combat experiences can form adaptive military strategies so that it can be useful for strengthening the SishanKamrata model in Indonesia.

Abstract

Hinduism demonstrated remarkable dynamism and flexibility, adapting to socio-cultural changes while preserving its core essence. This adaptability manifested in diverse ritual practices, including unique variations of the ngaben (cremation) ceremony in Bali. This study focused on the distinctive ngaben tradition of the Tutuan community in Pujungan Customary Village, Tabanan, which deviated significantly from common Balinese practices. Its uniqueness lay in three key aspects: employing lalang grass as the pengawak (effigy), selecting the officiating priest (pemuput) exclusively from the Brahmana caste (Ida Pedanda), and utilizing specific locations and burial procedures. The research investigated the form, function, and theological meaning of this tradition. It aimed to analyze the relevance of its spiritual, social, and ecological values to contemporary Hinduism and evaluate its resilience to modernization and socio-economic pressures. A descriptive qualitative methodology was employed, integrating ethnographic and Hindu theological approaches. Data were gathered through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis, interpreted using deconstruction theory. Results reveal that the Tutuan ngaben transcends mere ancestor veneration. It embodies the principles of tri hita karana (harmony with God, humans, and nature) and tat twam asi (universal self). Lalang grass symbolizes simplicity and ecological connection, while involving Ida Pedanda reflects deep spiritual commitment. Conducting rites at cangkem setra (cemetery edge) with burial demonstrates a contextually faithful interpretation of dharma. The study concludes that this practice represents authentic, contextual, and ecological Hindu spirituality. Preserving it is crucial as intangible Balinese heritage, offering valuable insights for religious, cultural, and spiritual education rooted in local wisdom

Abstract

Indonesia’s defense policy is shaped by the growing complexity of military, non-military, and hybrid threats that challenge national sovereignty and territorial integrity. In response to these evolving threats and the broader VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity) environment, Indonesia has implemented the Sishanta strategy, an integrated defense approach combining military and civilian resources. This study examines the strategic role of Indonesia’s defense industry in strengthening national security, with particular emphasis on the development of indigenous defense technologies (Alutsista) and the importance of public-private collaboration. Despite its strategic position in Southeast Asia and increasing modernization efforts, Indonesia continues to face critical obstacles, including reliance on foreign technology, limited skilled human capital, and weak innovation capacity. The research identifies key strategies to overcome these challenges, such as promoting technology transfer, increasing investment in research and development, and enhancing workforce capabilities. The findings underscore the need for a comprehensive and integrated policy framework to support defense self-reliance and ensure long-term national security in an increasingly unpredictable global landscape.

Abstract

Indonesia’s border areas play a vital role in safeguarding national sovereignty and stability, particularly in facing cross-border security challenges such as smuggling, human trafficking, piracy, and overlapping territorial claims. This research aims to analyze national security strategies in border area management through a public policy approach. Using a descriptive qualitative method based on literature review, the study explores various strategies including military strengthening, defense diplomacy, the use of advanced technologies such as satellites, drones, and artificial intelligence, as well as the integration of economic and social policies in border regions. The findings reveal that effective border management requires a multidimensional approach involving synergy between the defense sector, local governments, civil society, and international cooperation. Investment in surveillance infrastructure, institutional reform, and the development of border economic zones are essential to build a resilient and sustainable security system. This study recommends a collaborative, strategically adaptive policy framework that responds to global geopolitical dynamics to protect Indonesia’s sovereignty and promote the welfare of communities in border areas.
