Abstract

This article aims to explain the conceptual differences between Civic Education and civic politics, outline the dimensions of citizenship, and trace the development of civic politics in Indonesia since the early 20th century. This article uses a literature study method with a conceptual-historical approach. The sources analyzed include classical and contemporary works on citizenship studies, citizenship theory, and historical studies of civic politics in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that Civic Education is in the pedagogical realm as a process of forming civic knowledge, values, and skills, while civic politics is in the practical realm as citizens' actions in fighting for recognition, rights, representation, and justice in the public sphere. Citizenship itself is not only related to legal status, but also includes membership, rights, responsibilities, and participation. In the Indonesian context, civic politics develops through three main fields, namely the politics of recognition, the politics of welfare redistribution, and the politics of representation-democracy. Historically, this development can be traced from the national awakening in the early 20th century, continuing through the Old Order, New Order, and Reformation eras. This article emphasizes that the formation of critical citizens requires Citizenship Education that does not stop at the transfer of normative knowledge but moves towards strengthening political awareness and active civic engagement.

Abstract

 This community service program aims to enhance the capacity of Guidance and Counseling (BK) teachers across SMA and SMK in Pematangsiantar City and Dairi Regency as early detection agents against such threats. The implementation utilized a Training of Trainers (ToT) approach, including conceptual presentations from public policy and political sociology perspectives, followed by Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with 60 participants. The results revealed a profound information asymmetry, where the evolution of digital TPPO remains a novel issue for educators. A crucial finding during the FGD indicated institutional vulnerability at the vocational school level (SMK) due to structural pressures from the Link and Match policy. Educational institutions are implicitly indicated to potentially facilitate human trafficking chains unintentionally (unintentional complications) due to the absence of due diligence mechanisms regarding the legality of employment agencies. This program concludes the necessity to deconstruct the illusion of instant social mobility in student career counseling
