Abstract

This study aims to explore the meaning of the beseprah (bekerobok) communal eating tradition among the Kutai people in East Kalimantan, who continue to preserve local customs amid the forces of modernization. The research employs a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. The researcher was directly involved in the community through participant observation and in-depth interviews to understand the values and symbols embedded in this cultural practice. The findings reveal that the beseprah tradition holds significant symbolic meaning in fostering togetherness, strengthening social bonds, and expressing gratitude. The shared meals reflect local wisdom and serve as a space to introduce traditional Kutai cuisine. This tradition also plays a social role by reducing class distinctions. However, its implementation faces challenges, such as limited institutional support and shifting meanings due to modern influences. Nonetheless, through cooperation among stakeholders, the core values of beseprah can still be preserved. This study contributes to academic discussions in cultural anthropology and symbolic interactionism, particularly in understanding how local traditions are maintained and reinterpreted in the modern era. The findings reinforce the importance of preserving local culture as part of national identity and as a form of resistance to global cultural homogenization. Using a symbolic interactionist lens, the research provides in-depth insights into how social interaction and symbols construct shared meanings in local traditions. It also opens a dialogue on the role of community in sustaining culture as a source of long-term social strength.

Abstract

Abstract. The surge in sexual violence cases in East Kalimantan Province (579 cases as of September 2022) demands an advocacy model that goes beyond formal legal approaches. This study analyzes victim advocacy through an Islamic communication perspective at the UPTD PPA (Principal Implementation Unit for Women and Children), using a qualitative case study approach on five cases (2022–2023). Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed thematically. The results indicate that the advocacy standard operating procedure (SOP) effectively integrates legal, psychological, and medical services, and is reinforced by the Islamic communication ethics of qaulan ma'rufan (good character), ta'awun (conciliation), and da'wah bil hal (prosperous character) and bil qaul (prosperous character). This integration accelerates the restoration of victims' dignity, reduces re-victimization, and builds collective empathy. Advocacy serves as an instrument of social transformation through shura (law and order) and maqasid (objectives of sharia). These findings confirm that advocate Islamic communication is a strategic operational framework that strengthens the fulfillment of victims' rights while accelerating the welfare of the ummah. Abstrak. Lonjakan kasus kekerasan seksual di Provinsi Kalimantan Timur (579 kasus hingga September 2022) menuntut model advokasi yang melampaui pendekatan legal formal. Penelitian ini menganalisis advokasi korban melalui perspektif komunikasi Islam di UPTD PPA dengan pendekatan kualitatif studi kasus terhadap lima kasus (2022–2023). Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi, serta dianalisis secara tematik. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa SOP advokasi efektif mengintegrasikan layanan hukum, psikologis, dan medis, serta diperkuat oleh etika komunikasi Islam qaulan ma’rufan, ta’awun, dan dakwah bil hal serta bil qaul. Integrasi ini mempercepat pemulihan martabat korban, menekan reviktimisasi, dan membangun empati kolektif. Advokasi berfungsi sebagai instrumen transformasi sosial melalui syura dan maqasid syariah. Temuan ini menegaskan komunikasi Islam advokatif sebagai kerangka operasional strategis yang memperkuat pemenuhan hak korban sekaligus mengakselerasi maslahah ummah.

Abstract

Investigating women’s participation in politics might be beneficial for the improvements of communication studies, especially in political communication studies. This research’s objective is to analyze the involvement of a group of women in a religious Islamic movement in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. This research applied a descriptive qualitative research design by conducting semi- structured interviews to ten women from two political women groups in East Kalimantan. The results of the research suggest that the informants posit their acceptance to a particular male and female legislative candidates due to these candidates’ stances in religious beliefs and the candidates’ credibilities. The results suggest that these informants have a strong awareness to actively participate in politics, suggesting that women are aware of the importance of politics in their daily life.
