Abstract

Nationalism can be seen as a double-edged sword, which functions as a binding of a nation's identity but can also trigger Islamophobia and terrorism. After the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States, the country began accusing various groups and countries of being involved in acts of terrorism through Islamophobia by promoting its nationalist spirit. This research aims to explore the side of nationalism that can contribute to the rise of Islamophobia and terrorism in the United States. The methods used in this study are historical methods and radical hermeneutics with a qualitative approach. The September 11, 2001, attacks in the United States indicate the existence of four stages that affect the development of Islamophobia and terrorism in the United States, namely: Events that create deep fear and trauma in American society, agents and mass media who began to spread fear excessively, so that the American people increasingly felt threatened and sought protection, the emergence of a figure who is considered a savior by the people of the United States, who then instigates other groups with the spirit of nationalism so that there is a division in the society of the United States; and the incited people of the United States began to demand revenge against a person or group, namely Muslims.

Abstract

Local history often receives little attention from the general public as well as historical researchers. However, local history has the ability to influence national history and even global history. One example of local history that has the potential to shape national history is the event that occurred on December 12, 1962 in the city of Limbang, Sarawak. This event became one of the triggers for the Indonesia-Malaysia Confrontation between 1963 and 1966, especially the involvement of the British in the city. This research aims to dig deeper into the role of the British in Limbang City on December 12, 1962. The method used in this study is a historical method with a qualitative approach. The British involvement in the city of Limbang on that date was to rescue the hostages captured by the TNKU (Tentara Nasional Kalimantan Utara). Most of the hostages were residents of Kampung Pemukat loyal to the Federation of Malaya and were kidnapped by groups that supported the incorporation of Sarawak, Brunei, and Sabah into Indonesia. The rescue action carried out by the British succeeded in freeing the prisoners in Limbang City on December 12, 1962, which resulted in a failure for the TNKU. The failure of the TNKU actually triggered tensions between Indonesia and Malaysia, which ultimately contributed to the Indonesia-Malaysia confrontation between 1963 and 1966.
