Abstract

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) in Semarang City was introduced to the public in 2009. At the beginning of its operation, this bus received sharp criticism regarding chaos and system unpreparedness. However, after various improvements were made, BRT transformed into a new face of public transportation and a solution to the traffic congestion problems faced by Semarang City. This study uses a historical method supported by primary sources obtained from newspapers. The results reveal that the presence of BRT, followed by the emergence of online transportation, has successfully shifted the face of public transportation, which was previously dominated by city transportation (angkot) and city buses. In addition, the transition in public transportation has impacted the lives of workers in the transportation sector who face the challenges of modernization and technological revolution.

Abstract

The development of NV. Marba in Semarang during the period 1946–1954 demonstrates a significant transformation in the pattern of Arab-Hadrami capitalism. The company was founded by Arab wholesale entrepreneurs from Surabaya with the support of strong social networks, as a response to post-independence economic constraints and an effort to resist the influence of the Dutch Recomba. This study examines the history of NV. Marba’s establishment and its role in the social and economic life of Semarang, focusing on the characteristics of Arab-Hadrami capitalism amid their position as a second-class group within the colonial stratification system. The research employs historical methods, including heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography, to trace the social networks and business activities of Faradj Martak and his associates. The findings show that NV. Marba was more than a trading office. It played a strategic role in local economic development through kapok trading, export-import activities, and the strengthening of industrial innovation. Socially, NV. Marba contributed through the recruitment of educated workers, sports activities, and participation in charitable initiatives, gaining public recognition. The study concludes that Arab-Hadrami capitalism evolved from simple commercial practices into industrial capitalism that supported economic stability and social sustainability in the post-independence period.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of Guided Democracy narratives in Indonesian senior high school history textbooks following the shift from the 2013 Curriculum (Revised 2018 Edition) to the Merdeka Curriculum. Employing Ruth Wodak’s Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA), the research analyzes how political memory, executive authority, and democratic legitimacy are discursively constructed and recontextualized across curricular frameworks. The data consist of official Grade XII history textbooks published by the Ministry of Education under both curricula. Through qualitative critical discourse analysis, this study identifies shifts in framing strategies, lexical choices, argumentation patterns, and representations of institutional balance. The findings reveal that the 2013 Curriculum predominantly utilizes crisis-based legitimation, portraying parliamentary instability as justification for executive centralization and emphasizing national stability and unity. In contrast, the Merdeka Curriculum presents a more structural and contextual interpretation, highlighting institutional consequences, democratic trade-offs, and the complexity of political power relations. This shift indicates a movement from integrative-legitimative historiography toward a more reflective and dialogic historical representation. The study contributes theoretically by demonstrating that curriculum reform functions as a mechanism of ideological rearticulation within educational discourse. It also highlights the role of textbooks as strategic sites for negotiating national identity and democratic consciousness. Ultimately, the transformation of Guided Democracy narratives illustrates how curricular change reshapes students’ historical awareness and civic orientation in contemporary Indonesia.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the practice of capitalism in the production system and labor relations in Lampung tobacco plantations during the liberal economy period. This research uses a historical method. The results show that tobacco plantations in Lampung flourished during the liberal economy period. The government opened opportunities for the private sector to invest in Lampung tobacco plantations. This is evidenced by the trials conducted on the cultivation of Deli and Manila tobacco varieties. The production system and labor relations in Lampung's tobacco plantations during the liberal economy period reflect the existence of capitalist practices. A capitalist class emerged, consisting of private companies, and a working class from the local community. The production system was controlled by private companies, which controlled all means of production and profits. Farmers obtained capital loans, tobacco seeds, fertilizers, and guidance. Then, the tobacco harvest would be purchased by companies with an advance payment system, creating a pattern that benefited companies and harmed farmers because they had no control over the harvest. This widened the social stratification gap that separated capital owners, the Dutch government, and farmers, and seemed to create shared poverty in society.

Abstract

This study analyzes the diplomacy of the Balanipa Kingdom in managing political, religious, and economic relations within the Mandar context, particularly through the Pitu Ba’bana Binanga confederation mechanism (seven kingdoms at the river mouth). This study employs a qualitative historical method combining literature review, in-depth interviews, and primary source analysis. This study finds that Balanipa’s diplomacy was not merely an instrument of external relations, but an internal consolidation mechanism that integrated the political dimension through deliberation and collective governance structures, the religious dimension through accommodative Islamization and the institutionalization of Sharia within the Parewa Saraq, and the economic dimension through the management of an inclusive maritime trade network. Key findings indicate that the cultural values of sipamandar (mutual reinforcement) and sirumung karaya (consultation) serve as the philosophical foundation shaping the character of Balanipa diplomacy—which is non-aggressive, participatory, and oriented toward multilateral harmonization. This diplomatic model holds significant relevance for contemporary social and multicultural development, particularly in strengthening participatory democracy, managing diversity based on local consensus, and revitalizing local wisdom in the era of globalization.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the construction of temples during the Sriwijaya era from the 7th to the 12th century as part of a religious strategy related to political interests and the expansion of power. This research is based on the view that temple construction is not only a means of worship but also plays a strategic role in strengthening the kingdom's position. The method used is the historical method with a historical-critical approach. It consists of heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Research findings indicate that temple construction in Srivijaya not only served as centers for religious rituals but also functioned as instruments of political legitimation and as centers of Buddhist education. Thus, the construction of temples was a religio-political strategy that played a role in maintaining internal stability and strengthening Sriwijaya's influence in the Southeast Asian region.

Abstract

There remains a stigma that history learning is perceived as boring and merely recounts dates, figures, and places of historical events. Students’ low interest in history subjects is reflected in their limited participation, such as lack of motivation to study history, weak reading skills, and minimal engagement in asking or answering questions posed by teachers during classroom lessons. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine history learning at the senior high school level. The objectives are to explore students’ perceptions and interest in history, to describe family-based local history learning as an engaging and meaningful alternative, and to explain its benefits for students. The research method employed is a literature review, with sources collected from ebooks and articles. The findings indicate that family-based local history learning can serve as an engaging and meaningful alternative to traditional history instruction. The conclusion emphasizes that meaningful and engaging history learning begins with creative teachers who are able to design and implement lessons that allow students to truly experience the benefits of studying history.

Abstract

This study examines the reasons behind the omission of the history of sexual violence against Chinese women during the May 1998 Tragedy from Indonesian historiography. The study aims to trace how state ideology operates to exclude women’s bodily experiences from the official narrative. By employing Slavoj Žižek’s concepts of “the real” and “disavowal,” this study analyzes the absence of this issue in textbooks, educational policies, and public discourse. The research employs qualitative methods, specifically critical discourse analysis and a literature review of reports from the National Commission on Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan), Human Rights Watch, and academic studies. The findings reveal that Indonesian historiography is not neutral but shaped by nationalist fantasies that obscure collective wounds. The erasure of sexual violence is not merely an oversight but a political strategy to maintain the state’s image of stability. Therefore, historical writing that acknowledges victims is a crucial step toward narrative justice and social reconciliation.

Abstract

Traditional cuisine is an important part of cultural heritage that reflects the social, economic, and identity dynamics of a community. This study examines the history and development of Lentog Tanjung as a traditional culinary specialty of Kudus from 1952 to 2014, as well as its transformation from a common people’s food sold using shoulder poles (pikulan) into a culinary center. This research employs a qualitative approach using the historical method through the stages of heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. Data were obtained from literature studies, documentation, and interviews with business actors, local communities, village officials, and the Department of Culture and Tourism (Disbudpar) of Kudus Regency. The results show that Lentog Tanjung functions not only as a culinary dish commonly consumed for breakfast by people in Kudus and outside the region, but also as a representation of cultural identity that has developed alongside social and economic changes. The shift in the selling system from mobile shoulder-pole vendors to permanent stalls in a culinary center has strengthened its position as a regional culinary icon while also encouraging local economic growth. This transformation has also influenced changes in gender roles, marked by the increasing participation of women in the production and sale of Lentog Tanjung. The sustainability of this culinary tradition is supported by the consistency of its authentic taste and presentation, as well as support from the community and local government in organizing the area and preserving traditional cuisine.
