Abstract

AbstrakPerubahan iklim merupakan salah satu tantangan global terbesar di zaman kita, yang membawa sejumlah implikasi signifikan bagi manusia dan lingkungan. Namun, sementara perubahan iklim bersifat global,efek negatifnya yang paling parah dirasakan oleh orang-orang miskin di negara-negara miskin yang bergantung pada sumber daya alam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menanggapi isu perubahan iklim dengan mendalamikembali konsep deep ecology yang dikembangkan filsuf Norwegia, Arne Naess, dari perspektif ensiklik Laudato Si Paus Fransiskus. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif yang meliputi review literatur dan analisis kritis. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa perubahan iklim adalah masalah kompleks yang berakar pada paradigma teknoratis dan antroposentrisme modern. Paradigma teknokratis memainkan peran penting dalam praktik konsumerisme dan sistem ekonomi neoliberal yang mengabaikan kebutuhan orang miskin dan menghancurkan lingkungan. Berbeda dari pemikiran Arne Naess, Laudato Si menawarkan perspektif baru deep ecology dengan beberapa prinsip pokok yang khas, yaitu nilai sakramental ciptaan, ketergantungan antarciptaan, global common good, solidaritas, dan egalitarianisme ekologis. AbstractClimate change is one of the greatest global challenges of our time, with significant implications for human’s life and the environment. However, while climate change is a global issue, its negative effects are most widely felt by the poor in developing countries that depend on natural resources. This research aims to elaborate on the issue of climate change by rethinking the deep ecology, a term coined by Norwegian philosopher, Arne Naess, from Pope Francis’ perspective in his encyclical, Laudato Si. This study uses a qualitative approach, namely a literature review and critical analysis. The research indicates that climate change is a complex issue rooted in the modern technocratic and anthropocentric view of the relationship between humans and the environment. This technocratic paradigm plays an important role in consumerist practices and a neoliberal economic system that abandons the poor and damages the environment. In Laudato Si, Pope Francis offers a new perspective of deep ecology with several main principles, including the sacramental and intrinsic value of creatures, the interdependence and interconnectedness between humans and nature, the global common good, solidarity, and ecological egalitarianism.

Abstract

In recent years, Flores has become a frontier due to government policies that exploit living space, culture, and the rights of local communities. It represents the irony of the government's policy called the Green Economy as a model of development that emphasizes common prosperity without destroying the environment and culture. This research aims to respond further to this issue by proposing a dialectic between the deep ecology of Spinozism and the Barong Wae ritual of the Manggaraian people. The method used in this research is a dialectic approach of the Principle of Expression (critical study of literature) and the Principle of Differentiation (interview key informants). This research indicates that the normative concept of the green economy is inadequate for the sustainability of local communities in Flores. It requires a radical transformation in the human paradigm of nature, creating a green cognitive, followed by green affective, and green psychomotor. The dialectic between the deep ecology of Spinoza and the Barong Wae ritual can encourage this radical paradigm by providing some key concepts, including the intrinsic values of all entities, biosphere egalitarianism, self-realization, and ecological communitarianism. It can be concluded that talking about the green economy is not only about pro-people and pro-profit, but especially pro-ecology.Keywords: Deep Ecology, Spinozism, Barong Wae, Green Economy, Ecological Communitarianism

Abstract

This article aims to elaborate the phenomenon of right-wing populism based on the thought of Michael Sandel on the tyranny of meritocracy. Various previous literatures understand right-wing populism as an anti-pluralism and anti-globalization movement. However, these analyses fail to see that meritocracy has fueled the anger of working class and the losers as expressed in the populist movement. This study uses literature review and critical analysis methods. This study indicates that: 1) Meritocracy is a certain moral belief in individual success that justifies inequality as fair based on the basic principles of liberalism; 2) There are five key theses on meritocracy that trigger right-wing populism, namely: a person's fate is determined by individual success; everyone is responsible for their life; everyone can rise as long as they work hard; social inequality is a problem of person's income which is linear with their hard work; and education is a solution of social inequality; 3) Sandel’s criticism on meritocracy can be an alternative perspective to analyze populism in Indonesia. 4) The challenge of right-wing populism can be answered by revitalizing public discourse. This study concludes that meritocracy is a trigger for the right-wing populism in various democratic countries, including Indonesia.AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan menganalisis fenomena populisme kanan berdasarkan pemikiran Michael Sandel tentang tirani meritokrasi. Berbagai literatur sebelumnya memahami populisme kanan sebagai gerakan anti-pluralisme dan anti-globalisasi. Namun, analisis-analisis tersebut gagal memahami bahwa meritokrasi telah memicu kemarahan kelas pekerja dan para pecundang yang diekspresikan dalam gerakan populis. Studi ini memakai metode review literatur dan analisis kritis. Studi ini menemukan bahwa: 1) Meritokrasi adalah keyakinan moral tertentu terhadap prestasi individu yang membenarkan ketimpangan sosial sebagai hal yang fair berdasarkan prinsip-prinsip liberalisme; 2) Terdapat lima tesis kunci meritokrasi yaitu: nasib seseorang ditentukan prestasi individu; setiap orang bertanggung jawab atas hidupnya; setiap orang bisa bangkit asalkan bekerja keras; ketimpangan sosial adalah masalah besar-kecilnya penghasilan seseorang yang linear dengan kerja kerasnya; dan pendidikan adalah solusi ketimpangan sosial; 3) Pandangan Sandel dapat menjadi perspektif alternatif untuk membaca populisme di Indonesia. 4) Tantangan populisme kanan dapat dijawab melalui revitalisasi diskursus publik. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa meritokrasi merupakan pemicu populisme kanan di berbagai negara demokrasi, termasuk Indonesia.
