Abstract

This paper pays attention to the Uyghur conflict which became international news. A variety of reports about the Uygur appear with religious-based heroic narratives that corroborate discrimination, persecution, and all the miscience of the Chinese government against the Uyghur ethnic minority. As such, it aims to understand the difference in perspectives of the preaching of some Western mass media compared to the Chinese mass media in informing Uyghur related news. Compared to other ethnicity issues, the authors believed in certain interests behind the preaching of various online mass media to what was actually happening in Xinjiang. The author uses the framework of the framing theory of Pan Konciski and the constructivicist paradigm to interpret the news of the Uygur conflict.  The results of the study show Western media are more likely to have tendencies using words or sentences that drain the reader's emotions while Chinese media are more likely to be neutral in framing the news. It is a record for the authors that the public perception regarding the internationalization of issues occurring in a country can be influenced by how the media package news content.

Therefore, first, the author will describe a literature review of relations between climate change and international conflict. Second, the article will explain how the climate change phenomenon in the Nile is resulting in some security risks, especially toward Egypt. The result of this research concludes that the climate change phenomenon in the Nile can exacerbate the conflict escalation between Egypt and Ethiopia along with security threats in Egyptian water, food, and economy as the result of climate change.

Abstract

Artikel ini berpendapat bahwa konsep damai sangat relevan dalam perspektif Islam yang dapat dilacak melalui tiga pandangan. Pertama, secara ontologi, manusia harus damai untuk muslihun (perbaikan) dan mukmin (rasa persaudaraan). Kedua, secara epistemologi, upaya damai dilakukan melalui tiga cara yaitu perdamaian, rekonsiliasi dan pengampunan, dan perjanjian damai. Terakhir, secara aksiologi, hakikat damai adalah untuk mencegah perpecahan antar umat beragama, mempererat tali persaudaraan, dan menegakkan keadilan. Banyak artikel yang sudah membahas tentang damai dalam perspektif Islam, namun belum ada yang menjelaskan secara komperehensif dengan menggunakan metode ontologi, epistemologi, dan aksiologi. Oleh karena itu, artikel ini hadir untuk memberikan pandangan baru dalam menjelaskan relevansi damai dalam perspektif Islam. Selain itu, artikel ini juga menemukan bahwa konsep damai tidak hanya relevan dalam perspektif Islam namun juga selaras dengan perspektif Barat.

Abstract

This condition reminds us of the vital role and urgency of developing a methodology of Islamic international relations. In response to this issue, it is necessary to carry out an analysis of the development and application of Islamic international relation methods in Indonesian Universities, in this case, taking the example of three universities: Darussalam University (UNIDA) Gontor, Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY), and UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. These three universities were chosen because they officially declared the development of Islamization or integration of science in the curriculum of the international relations study program. This study aims to analyze the methodological model of Islamic international relations in three universities to be compared and evaluated for their implementation. This type of research was qualitative descriptive by taking the research settings at UNIDA, UMY, and UIN Sunan Ampel. Data collection techniques were through observation, interviews, and limited discussion. Data analysis utilized an interactive model with a four-component analysis approach: data reduction, data analysis, data clarification, and drawing conclusions carried out actively and interactively with source persons as the primary data sources equipped with several secondary sources. This study found that these three universities used three different methods in embodying the concept of Islam in international relations. UNIDA Gontor has its Islamization project, UMY has Islam as the curriculum characteristic, and UIN Sunan Ampel has the integrated twin tower concept. Although these three models have elementary differences, they have the spirit of developing the internalization of Islamic studies in the study of international relations.
