Abstract

Decolonization of history education mainly seeks to decenter Eurocentric narrative in history curriculum and teaching. Whilst this topic has been widely explored, the discussion related to the decolonization of history education has yet to be explored. This research aims to trace the complex process of decolonization of the history curriculum in Indonesia, which took place at the beginning of its independence, and how the political situation might have influenced this process. Historical research was conducted. Archival materials were obtained from various institutions both in Indonesia and overseas. The data were analyzed and interpreted using decolonization as a framework. This research found that the Indonesian government has tried to decolonize the history curriculum by foregrounding the role of Indonesians in History. However, the effort was not easy because the references used in teaching were still written using sources from the colonial period. Moreover, this research shows that political changes could affect the history curriculum.Dekolonisasi pendidikan sejarah terutama berupaya untuk menghilangkan narasi Eurosentris dalam kurikulum dan pengajaran sejarah. Meskipun topik ini sudah banyak dieksplorasi, namun pembahasan terkait dekolonisasi pendidikan sejarah masih belum tereksplorasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menelusuri kompleksnya proses dekolonisasi kurikulum sejarah di Indonesia yang terjadi pada awal kemerdekaannya, dan bagaimana situasi politik mempengaruhi proses tersebut. Penelitian sejarah dilakukan. Bahan arsip diperoleh dari berbagai institusi baik di Indonesia maupun di luar negeri. Data dianalisis dan diinterpretasikan dengan menggunakan kerangka dekolonisasi. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa pemerintah Indonesia telah mencoba mendekolonisasi kurikulum sejarah dengan mengedepankan peran masyarakat Indonesia dalam Sejarah. Namun upaya tersebut tidak mudah karena referensi yang digunakan dalam pengajaran masih ditulis menggunakan sumber-sumber dari masa kolonial. Selain itu, penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perubahan politik dapat mempengaruhi kurikulum sejarah.

Abstract

Since the nineteenth century, Sumenep has served as an important center of salt production and trade in Madura within the maritime economy of the Dutch East Indies. Its strategic geographical location, the availability of port facilities, and the maritime activities of local communities enabled Sumenep to be integrated into inter-island trade networks across the region. Nevertheless, studies on Sumenep’s role in the salt trade routes have tended to focus primarily on economic aspects and colonial policies, leaving the strategic significance of this area insufficiently explored from a maritime historical perspective. This research aims to reconstruct the salt trade network of Sumenep in the nineteenth century by emphasizing the role of ports, trade actors, and the relationship between colonial regulations and the economic activities of coastal communities. The study employs a historical method consisting of topic selection, heuristics, source verification, interpretation, and historiography. Research data are derived from Dutch-language colonial newspaper archives, colonial government reports, and relevant historical literature. The findings reveal that the Port of Sumenep functioned as a collecting center linking salt-producing areas with regional trade networks within the framework of the colonial monopoly system. Trade activities involved salt producers, intermediary traders, traditional maritime shipping, and colonial authorities, while informal trade routes emerged as strategies of economic adaptation and resistance among coastal communities. The study concludes that salt trade activities in Sumenep were not merely a representation of colonial power but also reflected dynamic processes of negotiation and local economic resilience in response to the colonial monopoly system.

Abstract

The dynamics of labor movements in Indonesia 1966 were shaped by the broader political and economic transformations that followed the 1965 coup attempt. The transition to Suharto's New Order regime brought about significant changes in labor relations, characterized by the suppression of independent unions and the prioritization of economic recovery over labor rights. This study used historical methods using archival primary sources and contemporaneous narratives. This research will reveal the dynamics of labor day in Indonesia in 1966-1988 as well as Indonesian politics in a historical perspective during. This research shows that Labor Day celebrations are embedded in Indonesian society. The new ruler did not easily erase the tradition of Labor Day celebrations. The abolition of Labor Day could happen after 2 years, which means 2 times the celebration was still held despite being under pressure. The celebration of Labor Day was eventually resumed illegally, but openly in 1995 (as a protest against the then regime). Post-authoritarian 1999 and since 2013, Labor Day has been declared a public national holiday by the Indonesian government.
