Abstract

Penyebaran hoaks yang cepat melalui platform digital telah menjadi tantangan signifikan terhadap validitas kebenaran dalam diskursus daring. Data dari Kementerian Komunikasi dan Informatika (Kominfo) mencatat 1.923 konten hoaks sepanjang tahun 2024, dengan peningkatan yang menonjol selama periode pemilu. Survei nasional oleh Asosiasi Penyelenggara Jasa Internet Indonesia (APJII) mengungkapkan bahwa 24,7% hoaks tersebut bersifat politis, yang menegaskan dominasi misinformasi politik di ranah digital. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi bagaimana bahasa dalam ruang digital memengaruhi konstruksi kebenaran dan validitas intersubjektif dengan merujuk pada teori klaim validitas Jürgen Habermas. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode perbandingan artikel, yaitu dengan menelaah dan membandingkan sejumlah studi terdahulu mengenai komunikasi digital, hoaks, dan demokrasi deliberatif, sehingga diperoleh gambaran persamaan, perbedaan, serta kecenderungan temuan yang relevan. Analisis difokuskan pada bagaimana setiap artikel mengidentifikasi klaim kebenaran, validitas normatif, serta relevansi informasi dalam diskursus digital. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa meskipun ada variasi dalam pendekatan penelitian, mayoritas artikel menegaskan bahwa diskursus digital sering kali gagal memenuhi kondisi ideal komunikasi rasional Habermas akibat bias algoritmik dan keterbatasan keterbukaan. Hal ini berimplikasi pada melemahnya konsensus dan rasionalitas. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa penguatan literasi digital kritis sangat penting untuk memungkinkan individu menilai klaim kebenaran secara lebih efektif, mengurangi penyebaran hoaks, serta meningkatkan validitas diskursus digital.

Abstract

This study looks at how Greimas' actantial model, ecocriticism, and interpretive research come together to analyze indigenous stories from Southeast Asia in the context of the Anthropocene. While previous applications of the actantial model have focused on heroism, obedience, and resistance in Indonesian folklore, they have not engaged directly with ecocritical perspectives. This research seeks to bridge this gap using interpretive research guided by Ricoeur's hermeneutics. This study explores how indigenous myths construct non-human agency, positioning nature as an active participant rather than a submissive site. The actantial model is applied to narratives such as The Origin of Paddy, The Myth of Batoq Ayau, and The Legend of Hudoq Kawit, and an academic article, Circular Commoning of Dayak Bahau, revealing how actants shape environmental discourse. Additionally, this study reinterprets transitivity, expanding its scope beyond conventional constraints to position environmental actants as central figures in narrative structures. Findings indicate that integrating Greimas' narratology with ecocriticism increases one's knowledge about human-environment interdependency, offering a fresh ecocritical perspective that challenges anthropocentric ideologies. By reframing narratives to reflect mutuality between human and non-human entities, this study contributes to sustainable ecological stewardship, reinforcing the ethical responsibility essential for environmental resilience in the Anthropocene.

Abstract

This study explores the linguistic kinship between the Sibolga Coastal Malay and Mandailing languages using the lexicostatistical method. Both languages belong to the Austronesian family and are spoken in close geographical proximity, raising questions about their historical relationship. By utilizing a 200-word Swadesh list, the research identifies shared lexical items and phonemic correspondences between the two languages. The findings reveal a lexical similarity of 38%, classifying the two as part of the same language family. Based on the lexicostatistical formula, the separation between the two languages is estimated to have occurred around 2,230 years ago, or approximately between 382 and 32 BCE, considering a standard error margin. This suggests that Sibolga Coastal Malay and Mandailing evolved from a common proto-language, with divergence influenced by geographical and sociocultural factors. The study provides valuable insight into historical language development in North Sumatra and emphasizes the importance of comparative linguistics in tracing the evolution of regional languages. These results also support the hypothesis that Malay and Mandailing linguistic features have undergone gradual yet distinct phonological and lexical changes over time.

Abstract

Penelitian ini merupakan tinjauan Sitematic Review yang mengeksplorasi konvergensi metode digital dan tradisional dalam etnomusikologi serta dampaknya terhadap kerangka epistemologis. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan epistemologi Bayesian subjektif, studi ini menunjukkan bahwa paradigma komputasional dan kritis memiliki prior beliefs yang kuat dan sering kali saling menolak. Ketegangan ini menjelaskan mengapa data yang sama dapat ditafsirkan secara berbeda dan mengapa ketidakadilan epistemik seperti testimonial dan hermeneutic injustice terus terjadi.Temuan utama mengidentifikasi empat bentuk kebijaksanaan yang muncul dari interaksi digital-tradisional: (1) Objektivitas Kontekstual, di mana algoritma mulai dirancang untuk menghargai konteks budaya lokal; (2) Kerendahan Hati Teknologis, saat peneliti komputasional mulai menempatkan kebutuhan komunitas di atas kemampuan teknologinya; (3) Digital yang Berjiwa Tradisi, ketika pendekatan kritis menyadari potensi teknologi dalam pelestarian budaya tanpa mengorbankan nilai; dan (4) Kebijaksanaan Kolaboratif, yang lahir dari dialog antara paradigma yang berbeda.Pada akhirnya, penelitian ini berpendapat bahwa masa depan etnomusikologi tidak bergantung pada menangnya pendekatan digital atau tradisional, tetapi pada kemampuan untuk menyatukan keduanya secara bermakna. Konvergensi ini menciptakan ruang dialog yang adil, kontekstual, dan transformative menuju etnomusikologi yang peka budaya, beretika, dan adil secara epistemik.

Abstract

Promosi pariwisata seharusnya menjadi sarana untuk menampilkan budaya masyarakat adat secara adil dan menghormati keberadaan mereka sebagai subjek aktif. Namun, praktik promosi pariwisata di Kalimantan Timur masih merepresentasikan masyarakat Dayak sebagai figur tradisional yang terikat pada ritual dan pakaian adat, sementara keberadaan mereka dalam konteks modern sering diabaikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji secara kritis representasi budaya Dayak dalam promosi pariwisata Mahakam Ulu serta implikasinya terhadap relasi kuasa kolonial non-pribumi. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan analisis wacana kritis terhadap teks, gambar, dan video promosi pariwisata yang diproduksi lembaga non-Dayak, serta dilengkapi dengan wawancara semi-terstruktur bersama komunitas Dayak Bahau. Sebanyak 7 sampel dipilih secara purposif dari media daring dan arsip lembaga promosi berdasarkan relevansinya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa promosi pariwisata cenderung membingkai identitas Dayak dalam bentuk eksotisme dan historisasi, yang pada akhirnya memperkuat legitimasi pihak non-Dayak sebagai pemegang otoritas atas narasi kebudayaan. Di sisi lain, masyarakat Dayak mulai membangun representasi tandingan melalui konten yang menampilkan peran, mata pencaharian, dan identitas kontemporer mereka. Kesimpulannya, promosi pariwisata bukanlah ruang yang netral, melainkan arena kuasa yang dapat memperkuat marginalisasi atau sebaliknya membuka peluang perlawanan masyarakat adat.

Abstract

This research examines the representation of spring in D. H. Lawrence's poetry entitled “Craving for Spring”. This representation of spring is examined through the lens of ecocriticism theory and the theory of ecological consciousness found by Bannan-Watts. This research is evaluated by applying qualitative method to examine the data. The main data of the research are in the form of sentences related to ecological consciousness portrayed in the poem. This research found there are three kinds of ecological consciousness in the poem: (1) Comprehending the fundamental nature of the environment, (2) Recognizing the interconnectedness of human and nature. (3) Concerning about the condition of the nature. The result of this research indicates a shift in the meaning of spring. In the past, spring was depicted as natural harmony due to the rebirth of new plants after winter. Today, the meaning of spring has shifted. Spring does not represent the natural beauty. Spring becomes a season that brings fear to the people due to the natural disasters that emerge during spring.

Abstract

This research examines the intricate relationship between oral traditions and indigenous healing practices across Indonesia. This study uses  Java, Bali, Kalimantan and Sulawesi folktales to examine how myths, legends and ritual narratives encode traditional medicinal knowledge. These stories reveal a comprehensive view of health as a  harmony across physical, spiritual, and environmental realms. Through thematic and symbolic analysis, the study shows ethnobotanical ideas, the sociocultural logic of healing, and the narrative roles of herbal cures and traditional healers. Folklore provides therapeutic knowledge, an ecological ethic and moral compass that helps societies live sustainably and pass down information. The study contributes to worldwide discussions on intangible cultural heritage and knowledge system decolonization by placing these tales in cultural and public health contexts. It concludes that folklore is a living repository of medical epistemologies and a significant resource for culturally grounded health discourse in Indonesia and beyond.
