Abstract

Background. Indigenous rituals have long played a vital role in shaping human–nature relationships, often embedding ecological knowledge within cultural practices. In many forest-dependent communities, these rituals function not only as spiritual expressions but also as informal governance systems regulating resource use, biodiversity conservation, and environmental stewardship. The growing pressures of modernization, land-use change, and climate variability raise concerns about the continuity of such traditions and their ecological implications. Purpose. This study aims to examine the performance of indigenous rituals and their contribution to forest ecosystem sustainability within local communities. Method. An ethnographic research design was employed, involving participant observation, in-depth interviews with ritual practitioners and community elders, and analysis of ritual artifacts and narratives. Fieldwork was conducted over six months in two forest-dependent communities known for their active ritual traditions. Results. Findings reveal that rituals act as socio-cultural mechanisms for enforcing sustainable harvesting norms, protecting sacred groves, and transmitting ecological values intergenerationally. However, external economic pressures and declining youth participation threaten their efficacy. Conclusion. The study concludes that integrating indigenous ritual knowledge into formal conservation policies can strengthen forest governance and cultural resilience. Recognition and empowerment of such practices are essential for holistic and culturally grounded ecosystem management strategies.

Abstract

Background. Environmental history in the Indonesian archipelago has often relied on geological data, colonial records, and contemporary environmental reports, leaving indigenous textual traditions underexamined as potential sources of ecological knowledge. Babad Tanah Jawi, a key corpus of ancient Javanese historiographical manuscripts, contains rich descriptions of natural events, celestial signs, and social responses to environmental disruptions, yet its value as an ecological archive has not been systematically explored. Purpose. This study aims to investigate how these manuscripts document patterns of climate variability, environmental calamities, and ecological transformations, and to assess their relevance for reconstructing long-term environmental change in Java. Method. A philological research design was employed to analyze selected manuscript variants through textual criticism, intertextual comparison, and thematic ecological coding. The analysis identified recurrent references to volcanic eruptions, prolonged droughts, exceptional rainfall, crop failures, and shifts in river courses, which align with known geological and climatological data. Results. The findings also highlight indigenous interpretive frameworks that connect environmental disturbances with moral, cosmic, and political meanings, revealing the epistemological foundations through which premodern Javanese societies understood ecological instability. Conclusion. The study concludes that Babad Tanah Jawi offers valuable supplementary evidence for reconstructing historical climate patterns while also enriching contemporary environmental humanities through its integration of cosmology, ecology, and social memory. These insights underscore the importance of indigenous manuscripts as cultural-ecological repositories that can broaden interdisciplinary approaches to climate history, disaster studies, and resilience research.

Abstract

Background. The rapid ecological degradation occurring across Southeast Asia has intensified scholarly interest in indigenous philosophical systems that articulate holistic models of human environment relations. Tri Hita Karana (THK), a foundational Balinese philosophical framework emphasizing harmony among humans, nature, and the divine, has increasingly been invoked in discussions of sustainability; however, empirical and conceptual examinations of how THK can inform contemporary environmental ethics remain limited. Purpose. This study aims to analyze THK as a philosophical foundation for sustainable practices by exploring its metaphysical assumptions, socio-cultural manifestations, and potential integration into modern sustainability paradigms.   Method. The research employs a qualitative hermeneutic design, combining textual analysis of Balinese lontar manuscripts, ethnographic documentation, and thematic synthesis of secondary environmental studies. Results. The findings reveal that THK offers a distinctive triadic model of relational ethics parahyangan (divine harmony), pawongan (social harmony), and palemahan (ecological harmony) that collectively provide normative guidance for sustainable living and resource management. These principles demonstrate compatibility with contemporary ecological frameworks while offering culturally grounded motivations for environmental stewardship. Conclusion. The study concludes that the THK philosophy constitutes a viable ethical foundation for sustainable development, supporting integrative approaches that blend spiritual values, communal responsibility, and ecological awareness. The philosophical coherence and cultural rootedness of THK suggest strong applicability in policy design, environmental education, and community-based conservation efforts.

Abstract

Background. Performance has long been an essential part of human society, from its roots in ritualistic practices to its evolution into modern theatrical and performance art forms. Throughout history, performance has served as a means to communicate, express cultural identity, and negotiate social and power dynamics. While traditional rituals held specific social and spiritual functions, contemporary performances often focus on entertainment, self-expression, and cultural critique. Understanding the social function of performance in both traditional and modern contexts is crucial to understanding how societies use performance to address collective values, identity, and power. Purpose. This study aims to explore the social functions of performance in traditional rituals and contemporary theatre, focusing on how these practices facilitate cultural expression, identity formation, and the negotiation of social roles. The research investigates the transformation of performance across historical contexts and its continued significance in modern societies. Method. This qualitative study employs a comparative analysis of selected traditional rituals and modern theatrical performances. Data collection includes field observations, textual analysis of performance scripts, and interviews with practitioners in both domains. Results. The research finds that both traditional rituals and contemporary theatre continue to play key roles in reinforcing and challenging social norms, identity, and power structures. However, the function of performance has evolved, with traditional rituals focusing on spiritual and social cohesion, while modern theatre emphasizes personal expression and critique. Conclusion. The study concludes that performance, whether ritualistic or artistic, remains a critical medium for cultural negotiation, serving both to preserve traditions and to engage with contemporary issues of identity, community, and power.

Abstract

The concept of the caliphate has played a central role in Islamic political history, evolving significantly from the early classical period to contemporary times. Throughout Islamic history, the notion of the caliphate has shifted, reflecting the political, social, and cultural contexts of different eras. This evolution has sparked debate and differing interpretations among scholars, political leaders, and communities across the Muslim world. This study aims to explore the evolution of the concept of the caliphate, analyzing key case studies from classical Islamic history through to contemporary movements. The research seeks to understand how the concept has transformed over time and how these changes have influenced political thought in the Muslim world. The research utilizes a historical comparative approach, examining primary texts, political documents, and scholarly interpretations of the caliphate across different time periods. Case studies include the early Rashidun Caliphate, the Abbasid Caliphate, the Ottoman Caliphate, and modern interpretations by groups such as ISIS. A combination of qualitative content analysis and historical contextualization was applied. The study reveals that the concept of the caliphate has undergone significant ideological transformations, moving from a unifying political and religious institution in the classical period to more fragmented and symbolic representations in the modern era. Contemporary movements have reinterpreted the caliphate for political purposes, often deviating from classical principles. The evolution of the caliphate reflects broader changes in Islamic political thought, adapting to different historical and cultural contexts. This research highlights the complexity and diversity of interpretations surrounding the caliphate, emphasizing the need for nuanced understanding in contemporary discussions.

Abstract

Local culture significantly influences customary practices within Muslim societies, shaping unique expressions of Islamic teachings across diverse regions. In Central Java, Indonesia, traditional practices are deeply intertwined with Islamic values, creating a distinctive cultural-religious identity. While these practices enrich local traditions, they also raise questions about the balance between cultural preservation and religious orthodoxy. This study aims to explore the influence of local culture on customary practices in Central Java’s Muslim communities, examining how cultural elements align with or diverge from Islamic principles. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving in-depth interviews with community leaders, religious scholars, and practitioners of traditional customs in three rural areas. Observational data and document analysis of local texts and records supplemented the interviews, offering a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between culture and religion. The findings reveal that local culture plays a pivotal role in shaping religious practices, particularly in rites of passage, social ceremonies, and communal worship. These findings highlight the dynamic relationship between religion and culture, emphasizing adaptation and negotiation. The study concludes that cultural sensitivity and context-specific approaches are essential for understanding and preserving the diversity of Islamic expressions.

Abstract

This study explores the enduring and evolving influence of Sufism on Indonesian Islamic spirituality, examining its contemporary reinterpretation amidst modern challenges. Indonesian Islam has historically embraced mystical traditions, fostering a unique spiritual landscape distinct from more legalistic or fundamentalist expressions. Understanding this dynamic is crucial for appreciating the breadth of Islamic practice in the archipelago. The research aims to analyze how Sufi practices and philosophies are adapted and re-articulated by contemporary Indonesian Muslims, identifying the motivations behind this reinterpretation and its impact on individual and communal spirituality. Employing a qualitative research design, this study utilizes in-depth interviews with 25 Sufi practitioners, scholars, and community leaders across Java and Sumatra. Observational data from Sufi tariqa gatherings and contemporary spiritual forums further enriched the findings. Thematic analysis was used to identify recurring patterns and interpretations. Results indicate a significant re-engagement with Sufism, driven by a search for inner peace, spiritual authenticity, and a moderate alternative to rigid interpretations of Islam. The study found that Sufism continues to be a vital source of spiritual resilience and ethical guidance. In conclusion, Sufism remains a powerful force in Indonesian Islamic spirituality, offering a dynamic and adaptable framework for contemporary religious life. Its reinterpretation underscores its enduring relevance in cultivating a compassionate and tolerant Muslim identity.

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics and civilization of Islam in the Indonesian archipelago, focusing on intercultural interactions that shaped the region's social and cultural structures. Islam, which arrived through trade and da'wah (Islamic preaching), played a significant role in shaping civilization in the Indonesian archipelago through the exchange of knowledge and technology, as well as the adaptation of local cultures. The significant contributions of Muslim scholars in mathematics, medicine, and philosophy also influenced the development of science in the Indonesian archipelago. Meanwhile, cultural interactions between Islam and local cultures resulted in acculturation that enriched the Indonesian archipelago's artistic and cultural heritage, such as performing arts and gamelan music. This study uses a qualitative approach using literature study methods and historical analysis to explore how Islamic civilization adapted and developed in the Indonesian archipelago, as well as how it influenced local social, legal, and cultural structures. In conclusion, Islamic civilization in the Indonesian archipelago was not limited to religious aspects but also encompassed the interconnected social, economic, and cultural spheres that shaped the identity of the Indonesian Muslim community.

Abstract

Hamzah Fansuri, one of the earliest Malay Sufi poets, represents a significant intellectual and spiritual synthesis in the history of Islamic thought in the Malay Archipelago. His poetry, infused with metaphysical symbolism and Sufistic language, serves as a reflection of the deep assimilation of Islamic mysticism into local cultural and linguistic contexts. This study aims to analyze the mystical dimensions and intellectual foundations of Hamzah Fansuri’s works to understand their role in shaping early Islamic intellectualism in Southeast Asia. A qualitative textual analysis was employed, focusing on hermeneutic interpretation and semiotic examination of selected verses from his syair and rubaiyat. The findings reveal that Hamzah Fansuri’s writings embody the principles of wahdat al-wujud (unity of existence), while simultaneously integrating Malay linguistic aesthetics and metaphors of maritime culture. His intellectualism is marked by a synthesis between Islamic metaphysics, local cosmology, and poetic expression. The research concludes that Hamzah Fansuri’s mystical poetry not only symbolizes the indigenization of Islamic thought but also represents an early articulation of philosophical discourse in the Malay literary tradition. The study reaffirms his position as a foundational figure in bridging Islamic intellectualism and cultural creativity in the region.

Abstract

Islam in Southeast Asia has developed through continuous engagement with diverse local cultures, producing distinctive religious expressions that reflect both doctrinal continuity and contextual adaptation. Debates surrounding orthodoxy, reform, and cultural legitimacy have intensified in recent decades, highlighting the need for a systematic examination of how Islamic practices are negotiated within plural socio-cultural settings. This study aims to analyze the patterns of interaction between Islamic teachings and local traditions in selected Southeast Asian communities and to identify the mechanisms through which accommodation, contestation, and reinterpretation occur. A multi-site comparative design was employed, integrating quantitative surveys (N = 54), semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis across Indonesia, Malaysia, and southern Thailand. Inferential statistical tests and thematic coding were used to examine institutional, generational, and interpretive variations. The findings reveal a dominant pattern of contextualized orthodoxy in which local customs are selectively integrated through scriptural reasoning and institutional mediation. Significant differences were identified between traditionalist and reform-oriented groups, indicating the influence of educational affiliation and global religious networks. The study concludes that Islamic practice in Southeast Asia represents a dynamic process of negotiated continuity rather than binary opposition between religion and culture.
