Abstract

This article aims to explore the profound philosophy of life held by the Mandailing ethnic group in maintaining the relationship between humans and the environment from a cultural ecological perspective. Employing an ethnohistorical approach, this research analyzes and synthesizes relevant ethnographic literature along with field research data. The focus of this study is on the philosophies "Poda Na Lima" and "Holong do Maroban Domu, Domu Maroban Parsaulian" as locally inherited wisdom passed down through generations by the Mandailing ethnic group to foster a harmonious relationship with nature. Key figures such as village chiefs, traditional leaders, religious figures, and community elders from Mandailing Natal Regency serve as research subjects and informants. The research findings conclude that "Poda Na Lima" and "Holong do Maroban Domu, Domu Maroban Parsaulian" impart local wisdom values such as compassion, cleanliness, and health in maintaining the harmonization of the relationship between humans and nature. These philosophies continue to be inherited and practiced in the daily lives of the Mandailing community, particularly among agrarian populations in rural areas. In practice, nature is positioned as a source of wisdom, not an object of exploitation, and is internalized to preserve ecological balance.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the role of Fransen van de Putte in advocating for an alternative approach to Dutch colonial policy in Aceh during the period 1873-1885, and identifies the factors influencing his efforts. The focus of this research lies in the criticisms and alternatives proposed by Fransen van de Putte against the Dutch government’s aggressive strategy in Aceh. This study employs a historical method with a social science approach and Antonio Gramsci’s theory of hegemony as its analytical framework. The primary sources include Fransen van de Putte’s speeches compiled in Atjeh: Parlementaire Redevoeringen van I. D. Fransen van de Putte van Februari 1873 – December 1885. Secondary sources consist of books and scholarly journal articles. The findings reveal that, despite being marginalised, Fransen van de Putte consistently voiced criticism and offered alternatives to the Dutch colonial policy in Aceh. However, he faced significant challenges in challenging the hegemonic dominance of aggressive narratives in the Dutch parliament. This research provides new insights into the political dynamics in the Netherlands during the Aceh War and the role of individuals in challenging hegemony, particularly within the context of colonialism.

Abstract

Mount Marapi in West Sumatra is one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia, with a long history of eruptions and lahar floods dating back to the colonial era. Despite various disaster mitigation approaches that have been developed, most remain technocratic and have yet to fully integrate historical knowledge sources and the local narratives of surrounding communities. This article proposes a conceptual framework for disaster mitigation grounded in historical and community-based perspectives, using Mount Marapi as a case study. The interdisciplinary approach combines disaster history, disaster anthropology, spatial geography, and public policy. The analysis draws on colonial archival reconstruction, synthesis of contemporary literature, and exploration of local knowledge held by the Nagari communities on the slopes of Mount Marapi. The findings show that colonial-era archives from the Dutch East Indies contain valuable data on lahar flow patterns, eruption intensity, and policy responses, which can inform historically risk-based mitigation systems. Meanwhile, local communities possess ecological and spiritual knowledge of natural signs preceding disasters, passed down through generations and forming socially rooted early warning systems. However, integrating these two knowledge systems into contemporary mitigation policy remains limited, primarily due to the lack of formal mechanisms to accommodate collective memory as a policy foundation. Through narrative and policy analysis, this article formulates a conceptual strategy that positions history as an active risk archive and communities as co-producers of mitigation strategies. It also proposes actionable steps such as digitizing disaster archives, creating a historical hazard atlas, and strengthening locally based early warning systems. Thus, disaster history serves as a retrospective memory and an operational foundation for developing contextual, participatory, and sustainable disaster mitigation systems.
