Abstract

Background: The documentary film Colonial Debris attempts to represent new colonial politics in Indonesia, providing a narrative of resource exploitation and agrarian conflict by corporations and state apparatus against indigenous peoples in Indonesia. Purpose: This study aims to reveal how the documentary film Colonial Debris represents new colonial politics in Indonesia through a system of visual signs. Method: This study uses qualitative content analysis with a semiotic approach, with data collection techniques in the form of film archive documentation, which obtained a corpus of 40 sign-objects from the film Colonial Debris. The data was analyzed using Pierce's semiotic method with a sign, object, and interpretant framework. Result: This study shows that the film Colonial Debris represents new colonial politics through visual narratives about colonial legacy in the Indonesia’s agrarian system; State-Corporate repression and criminalization of community resistance; Socio-ecological inequality; People's resistance and solidarity. The interrelationship of the film's visual sign system reveals the power imbalance and social inequality maintained by the state apparatus and corporations as the superior, and indigenous communities as the inferior. Conclusion: Colonial Debris depicts new colonial politics as a continuation of old colonialism, through signs of eviction, state apparatus, biased rules, and citizens' struggles refer to the object of state-corporate colonialism, forming an interpretant that positions Indigenous communities as the colonized. Implications: This study contributes to media and documentary film studies, particularly in postcolonial approach, by showing how documentary films can reveal postcolonial power dynamics and inequalities in society.

Abstract

This study examines how sacrificial animals (qurban) are managed from the viewpoints of humanitarian principles and Islamic teachings through a systematic review of existing literature. It draws on scholarly articles and field reports published from 2021 to 2025. In Islamic tradition, qurban is a key ritual that involves both spiritual devotion and social and ethical responsibility toward all living creatures. The concept of Ihsan—embodying excellence, compassion, and moral responsibility, as taught by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)—is central to this framework. In the context of qurban, Ihsan requires Muslims to handle animals humanely, carefully, and with minimal pain, aligning with modern animal welfare standards. Nonetheless, the literature review reveals a gap between ideal teachings and actual practice. Common issues include inadequate hygiene, rough or inappropriate handling, and limited awareness of the spiritual and ethical importance of qurban. These results underscore the necessity for stronger ethical internalization, better technical skills, and comprehensive educational strategies to improve both the humanitarian and spiritual aspects of qurban practices.

Abstract

This study examined the discourse of a new social movement of start-up workers through the modality of humour produced by the Instagram account @Ecommurz Indonesia. Using multimodal critical discourse analysis of a 150-content corpus in 2023, this analysis focuses on ideational, interpersonal, and textual symbols. This finding shows that humour on @ecommurz serves as a mobilisation engine for startup workers. Six prominent ideas were identified: labour exploitation, low income, divestment, investment, petitions, and layoffs. Visually, direct eye contact, parallel angles, and popular personas reduce audience distance, while the opening-interruption-closing narrative pattern, clean typography, contrast in meaning, and hashtags unify interpretation and accelerate dissemination. Intertextuality (brand parody, political nostalgia) strengthens critical power and sarcasm. This combination produces shareable humour with criticism, builds collective identity and shared memory, and triggers organic participation on social media. Thus, humour expands cross-professional coalitions and affirms its role as a repertoire of new social movements on social media, particularly in the discourse of Indonesian start-ups.
