Abstract

Communal conflicts that happened in Ambon, eastern part of Indonesia more than 20 years ago still reserve a lot of lessons to unveil. One of the least discussed issues is the roles of economic exchanges among diverse community members in bringing peace from below. This article tries to capture the interreligious interactions (Muslim and Christian) among buyers and sellers in areas considered as border space during the conflicts from 1999 to 2004. It showcases the intertwin of everyday peacebuilding efforts through trade and the spread of peace messages among those involved in the exchange practices. This research employed qualitative research methods using ethnographic strategy with in-depth interview, observation, and library study. Data was collected from 2016-2019 including 10-month intensive fieldwork. The article discusses that social networks and cultural ties embedded in the economic drivers of trade-related activities arguably set the foundation for everyday peacebuilding. In conclusion, economic transactions allowed interethnic, intervillage, and interreligious interactions to take place, eliminated distrust among the traders, and potentially extended peace message narratives at the micro level such as among family members.

Abstract

France embraces diversity in terms of religion, race, and ethnicity in its society. The arrival of migrants and foreigners, especially in the post-Second World War period contributed to France’s current demographic landscape. In dealing with the influx of population, France has adopted various immigration policies, as stated on the website of the Ministry of the Interior and Overseas, but has not significantly improved the current situation. As the immigration issue has continuously become prominent in French society, this research takes on comparing the policies carried by the governments of François Hollande and Emmanuel Macron on the issue while also taking into account their different political axes. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the political discourses embedded in the immigration policies between the Hollande and Macron administrations. This research makes use of available sources from the immigration policies of both governments during their five years in office. The data was collected by employing qualitative research methods by Iosifides combined with critical discourse analysis theory by Norman Fairclough and the concept of political ideology by D. Parenteau and I. Parenteau. The findings of this research suggest that Hollande's leftist orientation contributed to his pro-people (immigrants) immigration policy, while Macron's center orientation attempted to tighten the immigration policy towards foreigners.
