Abstract

This study aims to analyze and map the multidimensional sources of political legitimacy among Kyai (Islamic clerics) in Indonesia by employing a qualitative approach and a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with Kyai directly involved in political contests, as well as through observation of their socio-political activities. The findings reveal that the political legitimacy of Kyai is not singular but is constructed through the interaction of four main dimensions: (1) religious and moral legitimacy, (2) institutional legitimacy derived from pesantren ownership, (3) legitimacy obtained through political and economic networks, and (4) communicative legitimacy in the digital sphere. The first two dimensions align with Max Weber’s theory of legitimacy, charismatic, and traditional types while the latter two represent new forms of legitimacy that are not accommodated within the Weberian framework. Based on these findings, this study formulates a new theoretical model called the Adaptive Political Legitimacy of Kyai Theory, which integrates classical legitimacy with instrumental and communicative dimensions. This theory explains that the political legitimacy of Kyai in Indonesia is adaptive to social, economic, and technological changes, positioning Kyai not only as spiritual leaders but also as strategic actors in shaping the political consciousness of the Muslim community. This study contributes theoretically to the development of the concept of political legitimacy within the context of Indonesian Islam and provides practical insights for understanding the evolving role of Kyai in the increasingly complex and digitally connected modern era.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the role of continuous improvement strategies in improving students' academic performance at MA Miftahul Ulum Gending, Probolinggo.  A qualitative approach with a case study design was used to explore in depth the application of the concept of continuous improvement in the learning process. Data were collected through interviews with teachers and students, classroom observations, and analysis of learning documents. The results showed that giving students the freedom to choose learning materials and methods, active social interaction, and positive feedback from teachers and peers played an important role in increasing student motivation and engagement. This study concluded that continuous improvement, which is carried out continuously through evaluation and reflection, is effective in creating a more responsive learning environment and is oriented towards improving the quality of education. The application of technology in learning has also been shown to increase student engagement, by providing wider infrastructure and access to learning materials. Therefore, this study contributes to understanding how the concept of continuous improvement can be practically applied to improve students' academic performance.
