Abstract

This research examines the social and cultural transformation that occurred in North Sumatra through the process of Islamization. The process of Islamization in this region has been underway since the 13th century, starting with the arrival of traders and scholars from the Middle East and Southeast Asia. This study uses a historical and sociological approach to analyze changes in the social structure, cultural practices, and value systems of North Sumatra society due to the acceptance and spread of Islam. The research results show that Islamization not only changes the religious aspects of society, but also influences patterns of social interaction, government systems, education, and local arts and culture. Significant changes include the establishment of Islamic educational institutions, the application of sharia law in several aspects of life, and the alignment of local traditions with Islamic teachings. This study also highlights the role of religious figures and Islamic institutions in directing this transformation. Thus, the process of Islamization in North Sumatra can be understood as a multifaceted phenomenon involving dynamic interactions between local traditions and Islamic values, resulting in a unique and diverse social and cultural identity. This research provides an important contribution to a deeper understanding of the dynamics of social and cultural change in the context of Islamization in Indonesia.

Abstract

This article examines the development of democracy in the United States from the American Revolution to the modern era, focusing on institutional, social, and political transformations over more than two centuries. Beginning with the Declaration of Independence and the creation of the Constitution, it explains how democratic principles were established and tested through challenges such as the Civil War, the civil rights movement, and economic and technological changes. Through historical and critical analysis, the article explores the evolution of voting rights, public participation, and power dynamics at federal and state levels. Additionally, it highlights the role of individuals and groups in shaping democratic structures and the impact of domestic and international policies on American democracy. The findings show significant progress, but ongoing challenges to democratic principles include political polarization, economic inequality, and threats to civil rights. In conclusion, the article emphasizes understanding the history of American democracy to address contemporary challenges and strengthen commitment to democratic values.

Abstract

This study explores the historical buildings in Medan, which serve as vital cultural heritage from the Dutch colonial era in North Sumatra. These well-preserved structures stand as monumental evidence of the past and are legally recognized as heritage sites. Over time, the area that once served as the administrative center has undergone significant transformations, evolving into a commercial hub. This shift has resulted in physical modifications, functional repurposing, and the emergence of new constructions that disrupt the architectural harmony of the colonial-era landscape. Employing a historical research method—encompassing heuristic analysis, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography—this study investigates the impact of colonialism on Medan’s urban development. The findings indicate that the visual identity of Lapangan Merdeka is predominantly defined by its physical elements, particularly the enduring presence of Dutch colonial buildings. The area’s architectural character is shaped by key design principles, including uniform building heights, structural alignment, roof typology, and spatial arrangements between buildings. This research underscores the growing threat posed by urban modernization to Medan’s historical integrity, emphasizing the urgent need for conservation strategies to preserve its colonial architectural heritage and cultural significance.

Abstract

Artikel ini membahas pola mobilisasi dan pemanfaatan pemuda oleh kekuasaan dalam dua periode berbeda: masa pendudukan Jepang (1942–1945) dan era digital kontemporer. Pada masa Jepang, pemuda dimobilisasi melalui organisasi semi-militer seperti Seinendan dan Keibodan untuk mendukung kepentingan militer dan ideologi penjajah. Sementara di masa kini, pemuda dimanfaatkan secara digital melalui peran sebagai buzzer politik yang menyebarkan narasi kekuasaan di media sosial. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan historis-kritis dengan metode kualitatif, mengandalkan studi pustaka dari sumber primer dan sekunder. Hasil kajian menunjukkan adanya pola kontinuitas dalam strategi kekuasaan yang menjadikan pemuda sebagai alat hegemoni, baik secara fisik maupun digital. Meskipun demikian, keterlibatan tersebut juga melahirkan kesadaran politik yang dapat mendorong pemuda menjadi subjek perubahan sosial. Artikel ini menekankan pentingnya literasi digital dan kesadaran kritis agar pemuda tidak terjebak dalam manipulasi kekuasaan, melainkan mampu tampil sebagai aktor utama dalam demokrasi yang reflektif dan partisipatif.
