Abstract

General Background: Literature-based character education is essential for strengthening students’ cultural awareness and national identity. Specific Background: Despite its potential, the use of culture-based short stories in Indonesian language learning is often not optimally aligned with students’ sociocultural contexts. Knowledge Gap: Few studies have examined how locally rooted short stories function as contextual tools for cultivating patriotism within madrasah-level education. Aims: This study analyzes the use of two cultural short stories—“Yogyakarta” and “Mencintai Budaya Sendiri”—to reinforce patriotic character values among students at MTs Darul Falah Sumbergempol. Results: The findings show that “Yogyakarta” fosters religiosity, curiosity, perseverance, and appreciation for national heritage, while “Mencintai Budaya Sendiri” strengthens cultural pride, tolerance, responsibility, and identity preservation. Integrating both texts increased students’ reading interest, cultural awareness, and patriotic attitudes. Novelty: This research demonstrates that local literary works serve not only as aesthetic reading materials but also as effective instruments of cultural resistance amid globalization by embedding contextual, relatable values. Implications: Schools are encouraged to adopt local culture–based literature to enhance character education, support literacy improvement, and reinforce national identity among the younger generation. Highlights: Use of local culture–based short stories to strengthen students’ patriotic character Integration of “Yogyakarta” and “Mencintai Budaya Sendiri” increases reading interest and cultural awareness. Shows that local literature can act as an effective, contextual medium for character education in the digital/global era.

Abstract

Efforts to recover assets resulting from corruption remain hindered by legal loopholes and concealment strategies, especially when offenders register illicit assets under the names of third parties. This study explores how prosecutors perceive the legitimacy of such assets and their views on the necessity of reforming Indonesia’s asset forfeiture framework. Using a qualitative empirical design, the research is based on semi-structured interviews with four prosecutors who have handled corruption cases involving complex asset ownership. The findings reveal that prosecutors consistently view these assets as materially and morally illegitimate, even if formally registered under others' names. They also support introducing a non-conviction-based asset forfeiture (NCBAF) model to overcome the limitations of conviction-dependent mechanisms, especially in cases where suspects die or flee. Islamic legal principles, such as the ḥifẓ al-māl (preservation of wealth) and taʿzīr bi al-māl or discretionary penalties targeting unlawfully acquired assets, offer a moral and doctrinal basis for such reforms. These insights contribute to ongoing legal debates and support the development of a more effective and ethically grounded policy for asset recovery in corruption cases.
