Abstract

This paper explored al-Farabi’s and Thomas Aquinas’ ideas on politics, especially on the form of government. Medieval centuries remarked new formulations of political philosophy which was different from its Greek predecessors. Although almost impossible to totally detach from ancient Greek political ideas, medieval philosophers had attempted to adapt, renew and reformulate Greek political philosophy so as to fit with their circumstances. Al-Farabi and Thomas Aquinas were among attractive and influential philosophers who undertook this task of the reformulation of political ideas. Among new things inserted into ancient political philosophy by al-Farabi and Aquinas were political ideas of their religious teachings and the needs of their contemporary political situation. Referring to their writing on politics, both al-Farabi and Aquinas seemed to favor monarchy or a single supreme ruler as the best regime. However, a close investigation on their political ideas opened other possibilities of the forms of government when the situation of such ideal regime did not apply.

Abstract

This study aims to describe and analyse the relationship between religious groups, societies, and governments, as well as strategies for managing religious conflict, with a case study of the Ja'fariyah Shi'a minority group in Moya, Ternate. The Shi'a community led by Nawawi Husni, according to the Jema'ah Ahlul Bait Indonesia (IJABI), is considered to have different religious teachings and practices and is judged to be inconsistent with the teachings of the Shi'a in general. In addition to having a layered complexity, the existence of this community is also considered misguided, so it is often the target of the intolerance of other religious groups, even by the local government. Through a qualitative approach using a sociological perspective, the results of this study revealed that the silent (non-reactive) attitude of the Ja'fariyah Shi'a group in responding to various rejections and misconceptions about its group is not passive. Instead, they choose to do "resistance" creatively by using the media to counter negative opinions against them. The choice of this "resistance" model is not separate from the role and position of Husni Nawawi in attracting the government's interests. Consider that the pattern of hard-power conflict approaches must change to the smart-power transformation model.
