Abstract

This research aims to explore how the belief systems of indigenous peoples influence everyday conservation practices and examine how these beliefs can be integrated into modern conservation policies. This study employed an ethnographic qualitative approach. Data collection involved participatory observation, enabling involvement in daily life to directly observe community interactions with the environment and the performance of religious rituals. In-depth interviews were administered semistructured interviews with various key informants, including traditional leaders, religious figures, community elders, and environmental practitioners. Secondary sources from academic publications, government reports, and media archives relevant to the research topic. Interpretative analysis was conducted within cultural and historical contexts to gain a deeper understanding of how religiosity shapes the environmental conservation practices of the Mentawai people. This study presents three key findings related to the environmental conservation practices of the Mentawai community. Their conservation practices are deeply rooted in a belief system. Transformative dynamic is observed, whereby the younger generation successfully combines traditional values of ancestral religion with teachings from world religions and modern perspectives. A gap is identified between the local wisdom-based conservation system and the pressures exerted by the global political economy. The study provides new insights into the crucial role of local religiosity in environmental conservation and highlights the potential for integrating traditional and modern beliefs in nature conservation efforts. The study suggests that environmental conservation strategies should integrate local communities' religious values and indigenous knowledge rather than relying solely on scientific and technological approaches.

Abstract

Indigenous religion studies, particularly Arat Sabulungan in Mentawai, are dominated by the world religion paradigm, resulting in biased representations labeled "primitive," "animistic," or "syncretic." This paradigmatic bias not only hinders productive studies of indigenous religion but also obscures the ecological wisdom within their worldview. Amid the global ecological crisis, a new perspective on human-nature relations is needed, one that transcends the anthropocentric view that currently dominates religious discourse. This study aims to explore the worldview of the Mentawai indigenous religion regarding ecological relations and reconstruct ecological understanding from the perspective of the indigenous religion paradigm, specifically examining how rituals in Arat Sabulungan manifest the intersubjective relations between humans, nature, and spiritual entities. The study employs a humanistic approach, incorporating in-depth observations of Arat Sabulungan practices, with a focus on three main rituals: the sikerei healing ritual, the construction of uma, and the raising of pigs. Data are analyzed through the framework of the indigenous religion paradigm and the concept of worldview. Arat Sabulungan offers an understanding of intersubjective relations, different from the hierarchical relations of the world religion paradigm. Humans, nature, and spiritual entities are viewed as subjects possessing agency and consciousness. Healing rituals, the construction of uma, and the raising of pigs demonstrate a profound ecological awareness that manifests the reciprocal relationship between humans and nature. Epistemologically, this research offers an alternative paradigm for the study of indigenous religion. Theoretically, it enriches discussions of the role of religion in the ecological crisis by offering a cosmocentric perspective. Practically, the ecological awareness of Arat Sabulungan can inspire collective efforts to address the contemporary ecological crisis.

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between the indigenous religion of the Mentawai people, Arat Sabulungan, world religions (Christianity, Catholicism, and Islam), and the state, focusing on intersubjective recognition among these entities. The research employs a qualitative ethnographic approach, conducted in Matotonan village, South Siberut subdistrict, West Sumatra. Primary data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with key informants and observations, while secondary data included literature reviews of relevant journal articles, books, research reports, and news. The findings reveal the complexity and nuances of religious conversion, the socio-cultural dynamics influencing the negotiation process of Arat Sabulungan and world religions, and the role of state policy in shaping the religious landscape and identity of the Mentawai people. This article demonstrates that the socio-cultural life of the Mentawai people, especially in Matotonan village, shows that recognition of Arat Sabulungan extends beyond intercultural relations into the anthropological realm. Followers of Arat Sabulungan (Sikerei), world religions, and government employees have constructed themselves as subjects through intersubjective recognition. This research contributes to understanding the complex dynamics between indigenous religions, world religions, and state policies. It applies Axel Honneth's theory of intersubjective recognition, highlighting the need for inclusive policies, cultural education, and legal recognition to support and preserve indigenous religions like Arat Sabulungan.

Abstract

So far, there have been many studies on the dynamics and development of the religious studies in Indonesia. In general, the study covers at least two major themes, namely historical development studies and methodological studies. Generally, the existing studies are dominantly based on the development and reflection of the Religious Studies in Yogyakarta, Jakarta and Bandung. However, it is not common to discuss religious studies in other areas such as West Sumatra and Aceh, which are sharia regions in Indonesia. This paper aims to find out how the existence of the Department of Religious Studies at UIN Imam Bonjol Padang and UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh. Using a case study qualitative research method, this article shows that the Department of Religious Studies, both UIN Imam Bonjol Padang and UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh, still exist in their respective regions. Although the two Department are still not well known by the public, the contribution of the two Department to religious life has provided a place to balance the religious life of the people of West Sumatra and Aceh. The real contributions that have been made to the Department of Religious Studies at UIN Imam Bonjol Padang and UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh in West Sumatra and Aceh are, first, increasing religious inclusiveness; second, the driving force of religious moderation; third, activists of the discourse of tolerance; fourth, increasing inter-religious dialogue.

Abstract

So far, studies on the sources of conflict are more dominantly viewed from a macro-social perspective without considering a micro-social perspective. Socio-cultural disparities, political dominance, inequality in economic distribution, and differences in religious or ethnic identity are more dominantly understood as causes of conflict. Whereas the potential for animal power that is inherent in humans is also a factor in the occurrence of conflict. Applying the method of dispositive analysis modeled by S. Jager and F. Maier, this text-based article aims to complete the lack of interpretation of the source of the conflict and analyze how the text of the film “Nama Saya Ahmad” represents the correlation of prejudice and religious conflict. This article shows that the film “Nama Saya Ahmad” depicts religious conflicts starting from prejudice between religious believers. In order for prejudice to be parsed, it is important to expand the dialogue space. Apart from breaking down prejudices, dialogue can also strengthen the social integration of the community.

Abstract

Social media has transformed Indonesia's social activism landscape, especially in efforts to build peace and interfaith dialogue. This study uses a virtual ethnographic approach to examine how four interfaith communities (JAKATARUB Bandung, PELITA Padang, Eco Bhinneka Kalbar, and Peace Generation Makassar) use Instagram to promote peace and interreligious dialogue. This study analyzes digital content activism strategies, communication patterns, and community engagement approaches through systematic digital analysis observations and Instagram archives. The findings indicate that these communities have developed innovative ways of utilizing Instagram features to create meaningful interfaith dialogue, combining local wisdom with universal peace values. They use a variety of content formats, including educational infographics, personal storytelling, and interactive discussions to engage young viewers. Although these communities face challenges such as limited algorithms and resources, their adaptability shows the potential of digital platforms in fostering interfaith dialogue and peacebuilding. This research makes three important contributions: first, developing a comprehensive analytical framework for studying peace activism in the digital era; second, uncovering effective strategies for integrating local wisdom with digital activism; and third, offering a practical model for developing sustainable social media-based peace programs.

Abstract

This article examines the national holiday and collective leave policies in Indonesia as a practice of the religious time that reflects the relationship between the state, religion, and the formation of collective memory. Through a thematic content analysis of the Joint Decree of Three Ministers concerning National Holidays and Collective Leave for the 2020–2025 period, the article demonstrates that the regulation of public time is not merely an administrative instrument but also an arena of symbolic hegemonization representing the dominance of the majority religion. The study employs a qualitative approach based on document analysis, specifically Thematic Content Analysis to uncover patterns of representation, symbolic hierarchies, and the state's construction of religious time. Drawing on Maurice Halbwachs’s perspective on collective memory, Murray Edelman’s symbolic politics, and William E. Connolly’s critique of state neutrality regarding religious representation, the study analyzes how the national calendar functions as a temporal artifact that determines which events are institutionalized as shared memory. Research findings indicate that the distribution of national holidays and collective leave days reveals a pattern of religious time dominance, particularly through the greater representation of majority religious celebrations. The article contributes to the study of state-religion relations by expanding the understanding of hegemony as a form of temporal control, specifically, how the state constructs legitimacy and collective identity through the regulation of social time. The study asserts that the national calendar is not merely an administrative list but a political space reflecting processes of inclusion, exclusion, and the negotiation of religious representation within a pluralistic society.
