Abstract

This study analyzes the ritual community as an association of people who try to get closer to God through religious rituals. The focus of the community is not to carry out joint rituals but on studies, sharing religious experiences, and how to increase religious obedience. There are two types of ritual communities; those formed by religious leadership and by similar interests in studying religion. This study examines the second community, by examining the values, principles, and beliefs that unite community members. Research is needed to understand religious phenomena, increase understanding, and religious tolerance. The study was conducted by library study of ritual community, in this case, the community of Salat Khusuk, and Emile Durkheim's theory contained in The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life. Descriptions, interpretations, historical continuity, internal coherence, and holistic are methodical elements in this study. The results of the study show that the attachment and social relations of the community are built by the value of identity and inward solidarity inherent in each member of the ritual community.

Abstract

Artikel ini membahas Kongres Bahasa Indonesia 1938 sebagai forum yang memperlihatkan pembentukan bahasa Indonesia sebagai bahasa nasional dalam masyarakat kolonial yang majemuk. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode sejarah dengan menelaah dokumen Kongres Bahasa Indonesia 1938, data Volkstelling 1930, pers sezaman, serta literatur historis-linguistik tentang bahasa Melayu, bahasa Indonesia, dan bahasa Jawa. Artikel ini menunjukkan bahwa kedudukan nasional bahasa Indonesia lebih terkait dengan sejarah pemakaian Melayu sebagai bahasa perhubungan antarkelompok daripada dengan besarnya jumlah penutur asli. Dari riwayat itulah Melayu/Indonesia memperoleh peluang untuk tampil sebagai bahasa yang dapat diterima oleh berbagai kelompok. Bahasa Jawa, meskipun memiliki jumlah penutur besar, tradisi sastra panjang, dan kedudukan kultural kuat, tidak dijadikan dasar bahasa nasional karena kedekatannya dengan identitas etnokultural Jawa membatasi daya terimanya sebagai simbol nasional lintas-kelompok. Kongres Bahasa Indonesia 1938 merumuskan jalan tengah dengan menegaskan bahasa Indonesia sebagai bahasa persatuan, sementara bahasa-bahasa lokal tetap ditempatkan sebagai bahasa kebudayaan dan sumber pengayaan. Dengan demikian, pembentukan bahasa Indonesia merupakan usaha membangun bahasa nasional tanpa menghapus keragaman bahasa daerah
