Abstract

Peran agama dalam kehidupan politik, baik di tingkat nasional atau internasional nampaknya semakin tak terbantahkan. Buku ini menyajikan argumen dan fakta yang menunjukkan  transformasi ini. Klaim ini sebenarnya bukanlah hal baru. Sebelumnya tidak sedikit karya ilmiah yang menunjukkan apa yang disebut dengan gejala era kebangkitan agama (the ressurgence of religon). Revisi terhadap teori sekalerisasi yang datang dari salah satu pendukung utama teori, yaitu Peter L. Berger. Pada tahun 1998 ia mengeluarkan buku berjudul The Desecularization of the World: A Global Overview (1999) yang dimaksudkan untuk merevisi teori dia sebelumnya bahwa seiring modernisasi agama akan semakin kehilangan relevansi. Keyakinan terhadap Tuhan akan digeser olah rasio yang dapat menjelaskan banyak hal yang selama ini dipahami melalui narasi keagamaan.

Abstract

Sejumlah kajian belakangan menunjukkan meningkatnya kesadaran tentang pentingnya membangun koneksi antara ilmu-ilmu sosial humaniora dengan bidang-bidang kajian yang bersifat teknis. Tren ini tampak semakin jelas dalam bidang kajian tentang keberlangsungan (sustainability). Misalnya kajian tentang pengalolaan sumberdaya air dan sungai kini tidak hanya dilihat sebagai masalah teknis seperti tentang struktur tanah, pengukuran curah hujan, kualitas air dan seterusnya, tetapi dilihat juga sebagai masalah sosial karena terkait dengan kultur dan karakter demografis masyarakat yang berpengaruh terhadap kondisi air.

Abstract

Kajian sosial dan humaniora menunjukkan perkembangan pesat yang di antaranya ditandai oleh perluasan cakupan karakter lintas disiplin. Hal ini menunjukkan minat yang semakin besar untuk menghubungkan kajian ilmu-ilmu sosial humaniora dengan bidang kajian yang lebih teknis dan praktis. Beberapa artikel jurnal Kawistara edisi ini menunjukkan tren ini. Artikel-artikel yang terbit pada edisi ini adalah hasil dari penelitian-penelitian empiris dan pustaka yang mencakup tema yang beragam, mulai dari kajian tentang strategi marketing agroindustri, daya tahan masyarakat lokal terhadap bencana alam, penggunaan cerita rakyat (folklore) dalam pembelajaran ilmu sosial di sekolah dasar, hingga isu demokrasi, wacana penistaan agama di media sosial dan pengaruhnya terhadap pembangunan dan kebebasan ruang publik.

Abstract

Indonesia is often deemed unfavorable for political Islamic movements. This is prominently indicated by the fact that electoral achievement of parties with Islamic background has been historically lower than those of parties without stated association with Islamic groups. This is seen as a confirmation of the norm that Indonesian Islam is inherently moderate. This paper challenges such an argument because the up and down of political Islamc should not be primarily seen from thir electoral gains.  This paper shows that political Islam in Indonesia is persistent and will continue posing a challenge to the dominant role of moderate Islam. Using different paths Islamist groups are competing for establishing ground in societies. This paper categorizes the paths chosen by political Islam in Indonesia into three models called reformist, ‘refolutionist,’ and ‘staged revolutionary.’ Islamic groups are categorized in the paper based on their political objectives and strategies.

Abstract

Studies of elections in young democracies point to the risk of elections intensifying existing social conflicts, a process observed in Indonesia in recent years. The 2017 mayoral election in Yogyakarta contradicts this trend, presenting an empirical puzzle. Despite the fact that local conditions might encourage electoral mobilization along sectarian lines, we find evidence of restraint. Based on analysis of the contents of sermons in 12 mosques and churches in the month before the election we identify three factors that discourage religious leaders from exercising opportunities to intensify religious tension. These include (a) elites were not motivated to exacerbate communal tension because they do not feel the election will bring about reform or change that would seriously affect their established position, (b) even though sectarian messaging is possible, the elites did not believe masses could be easily persuaded by sectarian political messaging, and (c) political outbidding by using sectarian messages would risk confronting the local dominant culture of harmony. These findings suggest that several factors need to be activated for religious leaders to exercise their moral authority over worshippers for political purposes. The presence of an opportunity structure for intensifying sectarian conflict is not sufficient for that conflict to emerge.

Abstract

Hate speech has become a serious ‘challenge’ for Indonesia’s democratization process. Political openness has allowed various forms of speech and writing with a variety of messages; this has included narratives that encourage hostility toward other groups. Hate speech is frequently associated with the occurrence of violent acts against religious minorities. The demand for the government to act decisively against hate speech is getting stronger. However, the prohibition of hate speech in Indonesia is not a simple thing. Many people have expressed concern that enforcing a law against hate speech will recreate the repression of the past era where SARA was used to suppress political opposition. Additionally, defining hate speech and regulating it is also controversial. This paper is an initial effort to start a discussion about policy options to deal with the threat of hate speech, either by the state or by social movements. This paper describes dangerous forms of hate speech for a multicultural democratic country like Indonesia, the conceptualization of hate speech, laws in Indonesia related to hate speech and the experiences of a number of democratic western countries in dealing with hate speech. Finally, this paper proposes actions can be done by social movements to respond to hate speech.

Abstract

This paper begins by questioning the sustainability of civic engagement with the notion of ‘social capital’ as the key concept of Peace and Conflict Studies. The main question is: to what extent does socio-political tension affect forms of civic engagement? This paper examines interethnic relations (Dayak, Malay, Chinese, and Javanese) developed in the Stella Maris Credit Union (SMCU) in Pontianak, West Kalimantan, Indonesia under the context of ethnic tension. SMCU is a microfinance association where people with various backgrounds (religion, race, and ethnicity) interact in an economic community, sharing benefits and values. In the beginning, SMCU was initiated as an economic program of Stella Maris Catholic Church in North Pontianak. This church did not only serve the church members, but also for all ethnicities and religions through Pontianak. As a site drastically impacted by ethnic conflict in the post-Suharto era, Pontianak recently has been growing as a city of ethnic diversity. However, the recent rise of ethnic tension has contested this growing multiethnic coexistence. It is important to see the strength of civic engagement in responding to issues of conflict in a multiethnic society. This study explores SMCU members and their personal experiences, wondering whether the tension may or may not affect the forms of civic engagement. It argues civic engagement can sustain under the moment of socio-political tension. Developing economy and peace education are the main reasons for interethnic relations among SMCU members. Moreover, although there are treats for the plural society, experiencing diversity in the form of associational and neighborhood relations contributes to social coexistence. This study finds that forms of civic engagement among the members shape expressions and attitudes of resilience in facing social tension.

Abstract

In the process of deradicalization, the reintegration of former jihadist detainee places as the most dilemmatic agenda to conduct. It raises a problematic situation between the issue of security and restoring the former jihadist detainees’s human rights. But, the struggle in the reintegration process not only occurs to the state and host community but also to the former jihadist detainees itself.  This paper focuses on the story of former jihadist detainees in Solo region who have  different experiences in their reintegration process and their strategies to encounter the problem as an effort to erase the radical thinking and start a new life. Solo Region was chosen because it receives a 'stigmatization' as a cultivation region for religious radicalism because of its record on radical Muslim's web and figure such as Abubakar Baasyir (the founder of Islamic radical group namely Jemaah Islamiyah). It also becomes a growing place for Islamic radicalism groups such as Jamaah Ansharut Daulah (JAD) and Jamaah Islamiyah which contributed toward Makassar’s Cathedral bombing, Bali bombing I and II and Laskar Jihad and Majelis Mujahidin Indonesia which tried to enforce Islamic value in Indonesia. The data of this research was gained by conducting an in-depth interview with four former jihadist detainees in Solo region who are willing to be interviewed under the pseudonym. Also, exposure some references as the secondary data. This article found that a sustainable, gradual, and comprehensive reintegration process in social, ideological, political, and economic aspects could support the effort of former jihadist detainees in the Solo region to establish a new life.
