Abstract

The coexistence of kaum mudo (Muhammadiyah and Sumatera Thawalib) and kaum tuo (Perti) in the context of Islamic education in Minangkabau reflects a significant transformation within the traditional framework of this educational system. This study aims to explore this transformation and its implications. Utilizing ethnographic methods, including participant observation and interviews, the research delves into the dynamics of Islamic education in Minangkabau society. Findings reveal a complex interplay between traditional practices and modern influences, as younger generations navigate their identity within an evolving educational landscape. While older generations uphold traditional teaching methods and values, younger individuals engage with contemporary educational approaches and technologies. Despite these apparent differences, there exists a symbiotic relationship between kaum mudo and kaum tuo, wherein traditional wisdom is passed down alongside modern knowledge. This coexistence fosters a unique learning environment that blends heritage with innovation, preserving the essence of Islamic education while embracing contemporary advancements. The study concludes that this coexistence serves as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of Islamic education in Minangkabau, ensuring its relevance and continuity in the face of societal changes.

Abstract

In today's economic development, business transformation is a key characteristic of the process, as a result of the speed of technological change, digitalization, and the increasing globalisation of production systems. The manufacturing sector is under growing pressure to embrace new technological paradigms like advanced automation, data-driven production, and interconnected ecosystems. In this changing context, the term 'industrial maturity' has become important as a tool to analyse the development of industries from simple production systems to more complex, resilient and innovative systems. The concept of industrial maturity is still not well developed in the academic literature, especially in the explanation of the relationship between capability development and business transformation, despite its increased significance. This study revisits and conceptualizes industrial maturity by combining the concepts of capability theory, the resource-based view, and the literature on business model innovation to understand how technological resources and organizational capabilities can be the drivers of industrial transformation. The paper suggests a conceptual framework that presents industrial maturity as an evolutionary outcome of a combination of technology-driven resources, capability development, and business transformation. Technology-driven resources resemble the technological components of infrastructures, human resources, knowledge assets, and organization that facilitate industrial development. Capability accumulation is the ability of firms to implement, adapt, and deploy these resources effectively. Business transformation is the strategic reconfiguration of capabilities, assets, and business models in response to technological change. The proposed framework emphasizes that industrial maturity is not just a matter of technological adoption but a gradual evolution process that requires technological resource building, strategic adaptation, and ecosystem integration. More mature industries have more advanced technological capacities, adaptive business systems, and more robust innovation networks. This study brings a conceptual approach to the literature on industrial development and lays the groundwork for future empirical studies on business transformation in the digital economy.

Abstract

Patient safety is a key component of quality management systems in healthcare services. At the primary healthcare level, the implementation of patient safety systems often faces various challenges, such as limited human resources, organizational culture, clinical leadership, and suboptimal incident reporting systems. Community clinics play a strategic role in providing safe, effective, and high-quality healthcare services for the community. This study aims to examine the implementation of quality management and patient safety at the Baitul Qurro School Clinic. It also seeks to identify barriers and supporting factors in the implementation of patient safety, as well as to explore the experiences of healthcare workers in implementing service quality systems. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation of service processes, and review of the clinic’s quality documents. The research informants consisted of healthcare workers and clinic managers involved in patient care and quality management. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis to identify key themes related to organizational structure, service processes, and patient safety outcomes. The results show that the implementation of patient safety is influenced by several key factors, including leadership commitment, the availability of standard operating procedures, communication among healthcare workers, and the incident reporting system. Limited resources and the lack of structured training were identified as barriers to the optimal implementation of patient safety systems. This study highlights the importance of strengthening the patient safety culture at the primary healthcare level through the integration of quality management systems, capacity building for healthcare workers, and the reinforcement of professional ethical values based on Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan.

Abstract

The global shift toward digital transformation has significantly accelerated the adoption of online learning and open education models. However, in an increasingly complex and fast-changing world (VUCA), digitalization alone is no longer sufficient as an objective. This article aims to explore how online learning and open education can evolve beyond digitalization by aligning with broader global challenges, trends, and emerging societal needs. Using a conceptual and literature-based approach, the paper examines how open education contributes to contemporary issues such as technological advancement, sustainability, regional development, inclusiveness, and public participation. In this context, open education is not merely defined by free access to digital platforms but rather as a paradigm shift toward collaboration, open knowledge, and democratized learning. Education is increasingly understood as a participatory and sustainable ecosystem, rather than a one-directional process. This study emphasizes that building an inclusive, adaptive, and future-relevant education system requires the integration of policy innovation, technological advancement, and values of openness. The article provides practical policy insights, implications, and strategic recommendations for transitioning from simple digital educational access to a development and transformation strategy, particularly in developing countries where educational inequality and sustainability gaps remain key concerns.

Abstract

The Waqf Business Model (WBM) represents an innovative and transformative approach to establishing a sustainable social business model within mainstream economics, rooted in Islamic economic principles. This paper explores the current state of waqf as an alternative model for social business, emphasizing its ability to combine social impact with long-term economic sustainability by preserving assets and generating ongoing revenue. It also advocates for integrating WBM into the mainstream economy to serve as a powerful mechanism for addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The paper highlights the challenges faced by traditional Islamic economic institutions, particularly waqf, which have struggled due to outdated management practices and a conceptual crisis regarding the role of waqf in modern economies. Revitalizing waqf institutions requires enhancing their capabilities and aligning them with contemporary business strategies. Additionally, this paper encourages future research to explore how WBM can be fully integrated into the existing economic ecosystem. In theory, WBM provides a framework for ethical and inclusive economies, while in practice, it has the potential to create self-sustaining institutions that reduce reliance on external aid, offering an innovative solution to global socio-economic challenges by blending sustainable innovation.

Abstract

During the 1950s, Sumitro Djojohadikusumo contributed in a significant manner to the construction of the economy of Indonesia, along with other figures, namely Mohammad Hatta, Sjafruddin Prawiranegara, and Djuanda Kartawidjaja. During this period, Sumitro promoted policies to drive industrialization in Indonesia and self-reliance to transform Indonesia from a colonial economy into a developing nation. Soemitro Djojohadikusumo’s economic policies were pivotal in shaping Indonesia’s post-colonial economy; focusing on production and industrial sovereignty, he emphasized reducing dependency on imports by fostering domestic industries, especially strategic sectors like heavy industry and natural resource processing, which he saw as crucial to national sovereignty. Soemitro also promoted stimulating economic activities through both public investment and private sector engagement, aiming to diversify the economy and drive sustained growth. Many of the challenges Soemitro addressed, such as infrastructural gaps and weak technological readiness, which remain relevant today. This research analyzes to what extent the economic policy shaped by Sumitro impacts Indonesia’s development. This analysis has significance in understanding Indonesia’s contemporary economic planning and trends, particularly in terms of economic policy shaped by the newly elected President of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto. Analysis of Sumitro’s policy is conducted through the lenses of the industrial maturity concept, which is relevant to growth theory, resource-based view, and development economics. Indonesia’s pursuit of industrial maturity is crucial for transforming its raw resource-based economy into one that competes globally by adding value to domestic production. The need to revitalize manufacturing and strengthen downstream industries is critical for boosting competitiveness and integrating circular economic principles that emphasize sustainability. Soemitro’s vision of empowering society aligns with modern approaches to creating a more inclusive economy. However, infrastructure bottlenecks, a lagging education system, and regulatory complexities continue to slow the progress. Addressing supply chain challenges through regional industrial clustering and focusing on efficiency will be vital for overcoming these barriers. Further empirical research is needed to explore how infrastructure, education reform, and regulatory simplification can enhance Indonesia’s industrial maturity and sustainable economic development.
