Abstract

Abstract Song lyrics play an important role in conveying social and environmental messages to the public. This study analyzes the lyrics of Navicula’s songs as a reflection and influence on social discourse regarding the environmental crisis. Using a critical discourse analysis method, this research examines how Navicula's lyrics depict ecological issues such as deforestation, wildlife exploitation, urban pollution, and environmental degradation. The findings reveal that Navicula's lyrics not only represent the reality of the environmental crisis but also serve as an advocacy tool that fosters collective awareness and promotes social action. Through the use of straightforward, metaphorical, and ironic language, Navicula’s songs effectively critique unsustainable environmental policies and challenge the concept of green capitalism. These findings contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the field of education, particularly in utilizing music as a critical learning medium for environmental awareness. By understanding how song lyrics can build ecological consciousness, this study provides new insights for educators in developing art-based teaching methods to enhance students' understanding of environmental issues.

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of power in political discourse through a critical discourse analysis of the dialogue between Najwa Shihab and Prabowo Subianto concerning the Draft Law on the Indonesian National Police. The research aims to reveal how power relations between media and the state are constructed, negotiated, and maintained through language. Employing a qualitative approach, this study applies Norman Fairclough’s three dimensional model of Critical Discourse Analysis, encompassing textual analysis, discursive practice, and social practice. The data consist of fifteen selected excerpts from the televised dialogue, which are analyzed as complete discursive events. The findings indicate that at the textual level, Najwa Shihab employs evaluative diction, oppositional structures, and critical interrogative forms to problematize the draft law and challenge state authority, while Prabowo Subianto utilizes declarative, normative, and imperative expressions to assert legitimacy and institutional power. At the level of discursive practice, the media exercises discursive control by framing issues around public concerns and directing the flow of interaction, whereas the state adopts defensive and justificatory strategies to normalize policy decisions and limit criticism. At the level of social practice, the discourse reflects broader democratic tensions in Indonesia related to transparency, public participation, and the centralization of state power. The study concludes that the dialogue functions not merely as an informative interview but as a political arena where media and state actors compete discursively to shape meaning, legitimacy, and public opinion.
