Abstract

The long history of Sanggau, West Kalimantan, shows relations between ethnicities and religions. Several major and open conflict events in West Kalimantan did not hit Sanggau. Despite social tensions, the Sanggau community managed to maintain the harmony of the community. This study is intended to look at the recipes Sanggau community in an effort to maintain community harmony for inter-religious and inter-ethnic, and how to resolve conflicts that have arisen since the past until now. This qualitative research was carried out with a sociological approach, and data collection techniques through interviews with various community leaders, observations on relations between residents, and documentation studies on various documents and publications about Sanggau. The data were analyzed by descriptive analysis. The results of this research show that Sanggau has been awake since the early period, the reform period, until today it is relatively able to maintain harmony and prevent open conflicts. It is common for there to be conflicts in the community, but the Sanggau people have managed to resolve conflicts and maintain their harmony. Existing conflicts related to the construction of houses of worship, religious conversions, and marriages involving couples of different religions can be resolved quickly and appropriately so that they do not become open conflicts. The approach to conflict resolution is carried out by religious leaders, ethnic leaders, and local governments by carrying out local wisdom such as the “Ngudas” ritual which builds harmony as a common identity even though they are ethnically and religiously different.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between folklore and education. What cultural values can be used for educational purposes, and how can they be used? The data is taken from the story of Pang Alui, a folklore of people in the interior of Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan. This story is an archive of researchers' oral literature research from 1996 to 1997. Interviews with several people were also conducted to get their views on the values of the folklore for the education of the younger generation. Folklore has a lot of value in learning. There are educational values, among others: persevering, learning and meticulous, cooperation and willingness to share. More than that, folklore is also meaningful in terms of language and cultural information. Given its proximity to society, folklore can serve as a pedagogical resource in an educational environment, both in specialized subjects and integrated into other lessons. This study has implications for the awareness of all parties to pay attention to the existence of folklore in the community; teachers utilize the material, students become closer to cultural heritage, researchers do documentation, and stakeholders maintain the continuity of the literature. This study has important significance in looking back at the relationship between folklore and education, in particular, in reaffirming that folklore must be documented and inherited. The inheritance can be done through educational institutions.

Abstract

This research aims to explore pluralism in West Kalimantan, a paradoxical place in Indonesia, where multi-religious and multi-ethnic people meet. For social researchers, this situation is unique because, on the one hand, West Kalimantan is known as a conflict-prone area in Indonesia. On the other hand, part of its territory, namely the Singkawang area, is called the most tolerant area. Previous researchers assumed this situation was false because conflicts between religious and ethnic groups still occur frequently. However, the communication strategies and social interactions by ethnic groups in this area have rarely been investigated. The role of the Chinese Muslim group is significant in bringing about harmonization between the polarised groups. Chinese Muslims have provided a link that is socially very instrumental in deconstructing the firm ethnic and religious group identities and boundaries. Although they seem to form their own identity, two sides of that identity are related to religious groups and ethnic groups. Their presence thus balances inter-group communications and interactions. In conclusion, theoretically, the presence of the Chinese Muslim community in West Kalimantan breaks the ice of identity and becomes a bridge of communication between communities.

Abstract

This article analyzes the integration of Islamic law and customary law in shaping the religious identity of the Malay Buyan community in Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. While Islamic law plays a central role in regulating social and religious life, local customary law remains deeply embedded in the community’s legal consciousness and socio-cultural framework. Previous studies have often treated these two legal systems as separate or even contradictory. However, this study challenges such a dichotomous perspective by demonstrating that Islamic law and customary law engage in an ongoing process of negotiation, resulting in an adaptive and contextually dynamic legal framework. Using a socio-legal approach, this research collects data through in-depth interviews with ten key informants, participant observation, and document analysis. The findings reveal that Islamic law does not replace customary law but is instead integrated into the local legal system, influencing various aspects of social order, family structures, and the sustainable management of natural resources. This integration is evident in the use of Islamic legal terminology, the substance of legal norms, the mechanisms for customary fines, and the role of Islamic religious leaders in the codification of customary law. These findings challenge the prevailing bipolar view that positions Islamic law and customary law as inherently opposing systems. Instead, this study highlights a dynamic and integrative interaction between the two legal traditions, ensuring both social harmony and legal continuity. Ultimately, the article argues that the coexistence of Islamic and customary law is not a source of conflict but a mutually reinforcing and evolving process that contributes to strengthening both religious and cultural identity in a predominantly Muslim society. [Artikel ini menganalisis integrasi hukum Islam dan hukum adat dalam pembentukan identitas keagamaan masyarakat Melayu Buyan di Kapuas Hulu, Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia. Meskipun hukum Islam memiliki peran penting dalam mengatur kehidupan sosial dan keagamaan, hukum adat setempat tetap tertanam kuat dalam kesadaran hukum masyarakat. Penelitian sebelumnya sering kali memperlakukan kedua sistem hukum ini sebagai entitas yang terpisah atau bahkan bertentangan. Namun, studi ini menantang dikotomi tersebut dengan menunjukkan bahwa hukum Islam dan hukum adat terlibat dalam proses negosiasi yang berkelanjutan, sehingga membentuk kerangka hukum yang adaptif dan dinamis sesuai dengan konteks sosial budaya masyarakat. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan sosio-legal, penelitian ini mengumpulkan data melalui wawancara mendalam dengan sepuluh informan kunci, observasi partisipatif, dan analisis dokumen. Temuan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa hukum Islam tidak menggantikan hukum adat, tetapi diintegrasikan ke dalam sistem hukum setempat, memengaruhi berbagai aspek tatanan sosial dan budaya, struktur keluarga, serta pengelolaan sumber daya alam secara berkelanjutan. Integrasi ini tampak dalam penggunaan terminologi fikih, substansi norma, mekanisme pembayaran denda adat, serta peran tokoh agama Islam dalam proses kodifikasi hukum adat. Temuan ini menantang pandangan bipolar yang menganggap hukum Islam dan hukum adat sebagai dua entitas yang bertentangan. Sebaliknya, penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa kedua sistem hukum tersebut berinteraksi secara dinamis dan integratif dalam menjaga harmoni sosial dan kontinuitas hukum. Pada akhirnya, artikel ini berargumentasi bahwa koeksistensi hukum Islam dan hukum adat bukanlah sumber konflik, tetapi merupakan proses yang dinamis dan saling memperkuat, yang berkontribusi pada penguatan identitas agama dan budaya dalam masyarakat yang mayoritas beragama Islam.]

Abstract

This article discusses the variant of Islam that lives in a multicultural society in the Sungai Ambawang area in the suburbs of Pontianak City, West Kalimantan. In the Javanese, Bugis, Malay and Madurese communities, Islam has served as an important element in the formation of their cultural identity, thus causing them to be synonymous with the Islamic community. Islamic elements that are used and have become part of the culture of society include the choice of Islamic dates such as the Hijri month in determining the time of cultural activities, the use of Al-fitihah and several other verses from the Qur’an as well as shalawat and prayer, the use of mosques as a center of cultural activities and the involvement of Islamic religious leaders in traditional ceremonies. The use of these elements has become a hallmark of the community culture and its form has been preserved until today.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between Islamic law (Sharia) and Customary law (Adat law) in the social context of West Kalimantan, Indonesia. The study's primary objective is to examine how these two legal systems coexist and interact within the region. The study employs a qualitative methodology, with data collection conducted through interviews with key informants, including religious leaders, Customary authorities, community members, and local government officials. The study also examines selected documents to ascertain the content of Customary law that is explicitly or implicitly related to Islamic law. The study finds that West Kalimantan Customary law has adopted Islamic law into its legal structure, as evidenced by the emergence of specific vocabulary or terms known in Islamic law that have similar meanings. Furthermore, there are differences in the situation between the Malay heartland, where Islam is strict, and the non-Malay heartland (Dayak Zone), where Islam is loose. These findings demonstrate local Customary law's active role, resilience, and adaptability in socio-economic change and broader legal reform. This study significantly contributes to law and sociology and offers a deeper understanding of the dialogue between Customary law and religion.

Abstract

Religion and culture are important ingredients in the formation of ethnic identities. When the dynamics of ethnicity move smoothly, religion and culture are used as materials to identify oneself and other groups; as the same or different groups. This article intends to look at how the identity of the Bakumpai people in South Barito, Central Kalimantan, and how the flower of Islam is included in the construction of the group's identity. Data obtained from field research on the Bakumpai people in Buntok, South Barito, Central Kalimantan, through interviews with a number of sources and field observations. This study concludes that elements of Islam and culture are important ingredients in maintaining Bakumpai's identity. Islam and culture make Bakumpai different from the Dayak (Ngaju) and Banjar people. Islam differentiates the Bakumpai people from the Dayak people - especially the Ngaju, while culture and language are used to identify similarities between them. On the other hand, religion makes the Bakumpai people have the same identity with the Banjar people. Culture and language makes their identity different.

Abstract

This writing is grounded from the willing to look at the form and constructed material of Malay identity in the Sambas river headwaters. It is derived from the qualitative descriptive research formerly done by the writer. Furthermore, the data is collected in Sepandak area, one of Malay villages in Sambas river headwaters, that is far from the main area of Sambas cultural. This village, moreover, is chosen due to its position that lies in the end of Sambas river. The village’s leaders, social leaders, religion leaders, and housewives are interviewed and observed to gain the information and their point of view about Malay identity. As a result, this research concludes that the Malay in the Sambas river headwaters has similar identity to Sambas people. The charactersitics of Malay people there are also same as other communities dwelling around them that people can distinguish the differences among them. The materials used as the differential mark are languages and names, houses and the utensils, the marriage tradition, the official dress, and the traditional arts. To wrap up, the research explains Islam as one of the constructed identities among Malay people in Sepandak shown by the built mosque, house accessories, and the Islamic arts.

Abstract

The study of the implications of education on societal change is important in social and educational contexts. This study was conducted in that context; it aims to describe how the implications of citizens ' education on their language. Data were collected in Riam Panjang Village, Kapuas Hulu. The place is more in the upper reaches of the Kapuas River, about 400 km from Pontianak, the capital of West Kalimantan province. Data were collected through interviews and observation. Data analysis was conducted with the approach of Cresweell (2015). In conclusion, the rapidly growing education in Riam Panjang has transformed monolingual societies into multilingual ones in the last 30 years. The community of speakers who initially spoke one language (monolingual), namely Malay Ulu Kapuas, became a bilingual community that spoke other Malay languages (Indonesian, Pontianak language), as well as several other languages. Changes are contributed by the need for interaction of society with the outside world, as a result of development and globalization. The implication of this study is the need for specific policies of decision makers about regional language retention. If there is no specific policy, it is feared that regional languages will become extinct, and that means part of the wealth of communal knowledge will also be extinct.

Abstract

Ethnic rivalry triggers competition among individuals, certain actors, and groups. Often, the competition is due to political factors while religion becomes a structural legitimacy. This paper examined how the rivalry between Malay and Dayak in West Kalimantan affected certain groups’ identity. The data of this paper were obtained through a documentation study by reviewing publications and writings on the issue of rivalry and interviews with some figures in West Kalimantan. The result concluded that the rivalry between Malay and Dayak in West Kalimantan was tight due to political factors. The two equally dominant communities have long competed since the colonial period in West Kalimantan. Today's rivalry has taken place since Indonesia's reformation in 1998 and let both groups maintain their identity, and, in some cases, lead to unclear boundaries. They do not live as neighbors but brothers. However, religion remain an essential factor amid the situation and cause the rivalry stronger. Persaingan etnis memicu persaingan antar individu, aktor tertentu, dan melibatkan kelompok. Seringkali persaingan disebabkan oleh faktor politik, sedangkan agama menjadi legitimasi struktural. Makalah ini berupaya untuk melihat bagaimana persaingan antara Melayu dan Dayak di Kalimantan Barat berimplikasi pada identitas kelompok. Data untuk makalah ini diperoleh melalui studi dokumentasi dengan melihat publikasi dan tulisan tentang isu persaingan, serta wawancara dengan sejumlah tokoh di Kalimantan Barat. Kesimpulannya, persaingan antara Melayu dan Dayak di Kalimantan Barat sangat kuat karena faktor politik. Kedua komunitas yang sama-sama dominan ini telah bersaing sejak jaman penjajahan di Kalimantan Barat. Persaingan saat ini telah terjadi sejak reformasi Indonesia pada tahun 1998. Melalui kompetisi ini, masing-masing etnis Melayu dan Dayak mempertahankan identitasnya, dan dalam beberapa kasus menciptakan batasan yang kabur. Mereka ditempatkan sebagai tetangga, tetapi sebagai saudara. Namun, agama tetap menjadi faktor penting di tengah situasi ini, dan membuat persaingan keduanya semakin kuat.
