Abstract

This research aimed to examine the importance of Islamic populism against the “212 Action” in Indonesia using qualitative methods. The primary data were collected through in-depth interviews with several informants and analyzed using the analysis offered by Miles and Huberman. The results showed three interests of Islamic populism towards the 212 Action. First, it had been used as a space for a parade of forces to rally the masses and unite militant religious organizations. Second, it made a space to break down the stereotypes against this group. Third, it had been used to instill unity ideology and strengthen the people’s strength. In conclusion, Islamic populism had made the 212 Action a space to convey some of its private interest agenda to the public sphere.

Abstract

Assessments of justice can vary due to its dual objective and subjective dimensions. Objectively, justice can be achieved through the establishment of a distribution system that follows predetermined standards. However, subjective evaluations of justice can be influenced by psychological factors that differ among individuals. Many psychological factors influence an individual's assessment of a particular distribution system. This research aims to explore subjective assessments of justice by involving an individual's inherent factors, namely the value variable, while also examining the values inherent in each individual. As a result, personally-oriented values such as achievement, power, and hedonism have a correlation with procedural justice assessments and distributive justice assessments that are fair. Furthermore, collectively-oriented values such as virtue, universalism, and conformity also have a correlation with procedural justice assessments and distributive justice assessments that are fairly distributed.

Abstract

Political engagement of the young generation is needed for a democratic country, including Indonesia. However, political engagement has psychological challenges for the younger generation. This study aimed to determine the political engagement level of the young generation and some factors that influence it. The research was designed with mixed methods. The political engagement scale (16 items; α =0.862) was administered with an open-ended questionnaire to 600 students. Interviews to deepen the answers to the questionnaire were conducted with 6 participants (3 male, and 3 female). The results indicate that the political engagement of the young generation, especially college students, is in the high category. Factors that influence political engagement include personal factors (motivation to contribute and personal interest), national condition factors (perception of the nation's condition and perceived influence), information access factors, and social-environmental factors. This finding complements previous research, that personal factors are the most powerful in influencing student political involvement. The research has implications for government institutions, education, political parties, and families in influencing the political engagement of the younger generation with effective strategies.

Abstract

While polygamy is the consensus of ulama (Islamic clerics) and is allowed by marriage law 1974, polygamy is still a highly controversial religious-based practice that continuously triggered pros and cons in Indonesian society. Polygamy is considered a form of gender inequality and violence against women. Many movements aspire to eliminate all forms of gender inequality and violence against women, including the campaign of 16- Days Anti Violence against Women initiated by Komnas Perempuan and feminist collectives.However, during the campaign in 2017, a recent pro-polygamous organization named Dauroh Poligami Indonesia came to the public to promote polygamy seminars. The emergence of Dauroh Poligami Indonesiais much criticized on account of commercialization and gender violence. Against this backdrop, this article seeks to understand the emergence of pro-polygamy collectives like Dauroh Poligami Indonesia. To fill the gap in the discourse about polygamy, this article shall presentcredible voices of women's pro-polygamous marriage. Why are there women still supporting polygamy, despite concerns about sexual, psychic, and economic violence to women affected by polygamy. This qualitative study employed extensive observation of pro-polygamous movement’s narratives both on social media and private whatsapp group, interviews, and participative observation from late 2017 to July 2022. By drawing on the commodification and self-autonomy framework, this study finds that the emergence of Dauroh Poligami Indonesia is not solely to gain profit using religious-based practice but also to contest Islamic ideology among Islamic denominations and liberal women rights defenders in Indonesia.

Most religions, including Christian ones, put a lot of emphasis on the importance of community. It has been found that online churches have become popular in the proposed areas, and the technology provides a better opportunity for Christians in Nigeria, the Balkans, and Indonesia to carry out their religious obligations by following lockdown restrictions

Abstract

Despite industrialization and modernization, religion still has a significant impact on society and politics. Many theories compete to answer questions about religion, yet this paper argues that religion-market theory has superiority in explaining the failure of secularization to diminish religion even in the most developed nations such as the United States, while it succeeded in others. Relying on Mill’s method of difference, this study qualitatively compares the two cases of the United States and the United Kingdom, relying on the history of religion and the economic structures of religious institutions. This study proves that Americans are far more religious than the British because since the foundation of the republic, the U.S. has not adopted any state religion while the UK has Christianity as the religion of the state since the English Reformation. Hence, religion-market theory that links between state’s regulations of religion and religiosity proves its superiority again.

Abstract

Islamophobia is a concept that includes various types of discrimination against Muslims and their followers.This study explores trends in previous research on Islamophobia between 2013 and 2022, focusing on factors that contribute to Islamophobia in the media and prevalent stereotypes. A systematic literature review was conducted, involving the identification, evaluation, interpretation and analysis of relevant studies. The study found that Islamophobia in the media has gained significant attention and requires further investigation to understand current trends and develop solutions. Factors associated with Islamophobia include negative portrayal, structural bias, and a lack of understanding of Islam, which contributes to anti-Muslim sentiment. The study also identified stereotypes, such as Muslims being suspected of attacks, seen as a societal threat, labeled as "other," and women wearing headscarves being stigmatized as religious fanatics. Addressing Islamophobia in the media is crucial, and recognizing these contributing factors and stereotypes can help challenge biases and promote inclusivity in society

Abstract

This study figures out the historical journey of the Indonesian nation which is full of its own dynamics is marked by the prominent role of Moslem figures in fighting for and maintaining national unity. The socio-cultural diversity is vital capital as well as a big challenge for Indonesia in building a nation-state. For more than seventy years this pluralistic society has been united by one state ideology, namely "Pancasila" which is expressly stated in the constitution. Optimism was reflected in the economic progress achieved in the mid-1990s, but after the 1997-1998 economic crisis which was followed by a multidimensional crisis, social integration experienced major problems. This article explains the role of the Moslem community in establishing the Indonesian nation, seizing, and maintaining independence, as well as the potential threats to national integration. This article emphasizes again that the long journey of the Indonesian nation and the role of the Islamic community in its long history is an important capital that should not be forgotten in efforts to increase Indonesia's glory for the future. From independence until two-thirds of the century of it, the representation of Islamic groups is very calculated in managing government, however, in elections, they only have a significant enough vote but have never won. With a historical approach through a literature review, the author argues that there are many things that need to be done by the Indonesian people, especially the Moslem community to build Indonesia as a strong nation-state.
