Abstract

Social conflict within traditional communities can disrupt social harmony, institutional trust, and local security. This study analyzes social conflict in Penarukan Traditional Village, focusing on its causes, the role of the Traditional Village Guide (Sistem Pengamanan Lingkungan Terpadu Berbasis Desa Adat/Sipandu Beradat) in conflict resolution, and its implications for village security through the lens of local wisdom. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation with traditional leaders, village security personnel, and the local community. The results indicate that social conflict in Penarukan Traditional Village stemmed from internal factors, including differences in views among traditional groups, weak communication between banjar, and changes in the traditional leadership structure that led to a motion of no confidence in the traditional leader. Sipandu Beradat serves as a coordinating forum among pecalang (traditional village officials), community security forces, and security forces, prioritizing a preventive approach, traditional mediation, and the strengthening of local wisdom values in conflict resolution. The implementation of Sipandu Beradat strengthens security, community trust, and synergy between traditional and administrative villages, while fostering collective awareness, social harmony, and communal solidarity. Thus, this customary-based system effectively promotes social stability and preserves traditional values.
