Abstract

Classical Javanese literature is traditionally defined by its profound synonymy with religious authority and the royal court (power), a duality long observed but structurally underexplained. This research utilizes a qualitative descriptive method, synthesizing existing studies of canonical texts—including Negarakertagama, Pararaton, Arjuna Wiwaha, and Sutasoma—to reveal the tripartite sociological formula determining literary inception. The analysis establishes that classical literature was overwhelmingly produced by eloquent individuals monopolizing broad knowledge, typically religious leaders, kings, and royal scribes. This structural control resulted from three interlocking factors: 1) Caste, wherein literacy and intellectual production were restricted primarily to Brahmins and Kshatriyas; 2) Knowledge, disseminated through the elite Kadewaguruan education system, which prioritized religious ethics before statecraft, functioning as an ideological apparatus to generate loyal state officials and authorized literary works; and 3) Culture, which utilized mythical elements (Smita) to glorify kings as divine incarnations, thereby legitimizing political narratives. The overarching function of this literature was to perpetuate power and spread sanctioned religious doctrine. While groups outside the palace provided resistance, notably through accessible oral literature and written counter-narratives like Serat Gatoloco, this opposition often failed to fundamentally displace the dominant hegemony. Drawing on Gayatri Spivak’s postcolonial perspective, the findings demonstrate that while resistance existed, the systemic control over authorship, knowledge, and dissemination ensured the literary output remained fundamentally focused on centralized religious and political control. This research clarifies that the enduring characteristics of Javanese classical texts are directly rooted in the political and educational policies of the past.

Abstract

The Indonesian Constitutional Court Decision No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016 has created a legal space for penghayat kepercayaan (adherents of indigenous beliefs) to register their identities in official population documents. However, the implementation of this recognition continues to face significant bureaucratic and social barriers. This study explores the struggle for legal recognition of customary marriages among the Anak Rawa indigenous community in Siak Regency, Riau. Employing a qualitative approach, the research draws on in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. Findings reveal that despite normative legal recognition, implementation remains limited and fragmented at the local level. Many community members feel compelled to convert to state-recognized religions to gain access to civil rights, such as marriage certificates and birth registration for their children. Structural pressures, social stigma, and a legal-administrative system biased toward official religions undermine the ability of indigenous faith communities to preserve their identity. Key challenges include limited information dissemination, a lack of technical guidance for local civil registration officers, and weak institutional coordination. The study emphasizes the importance of a multi-sectoral approach that involves government institutions, civil society, and academia in promoting inclusive and sustainable legal recognition. Effective advocacy strategies include disseminating regulations, empowering communities, and engaging in interfaith dialogue to reduce social resistance. Ultimately, the legal recognition of customary marriage is not merely an issue of administrative formality, but a broader struggle for the cultural and civil rights of indigenous belief communities in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examined the representation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and the likes (LGBTQ+) identity in @pelanginusantara_org Instagram accounts in the midst of heteronormative dominance and marginalization of queer narratives by mainstream media in Indonesia. This study uses Muted Group Theory as the main theoretical framework to understand how queer communities construct counter-discourses against the symbolic structures that exclude them. The analysis was carried out through the multimodal analysis approach proposed by Kress & van Leeuwen, which was strengthened with the perspective of Butler’s gender performativity theory, in order to interpret visual, linguistic, and symbolic strategies in building queer identity in the digital space. The results show that this account uses strategies of visual affirmation, cultural localization, and affective narratives to challenge heteronormative discourses and create a more inclusive counter-public space. These findings confirm that social media, especially Instagram, has transformational potential for the LGBTQ+ community in Indonesia in negotiating identity and building a more equitable and humane alternative representation.

Abstract

This article examines the historical and political dynamics between secularism and Islamism in the context of modern Turkey, with a focus on two central figures: Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Atatürk, as the founder of the Republic of Turkey, established the foundations of the state based on principles of secularism and Western modernism, including the abolition of the Caliphate and reforms in law, education, and public symbols. In contrast, Erdoğan and the Justice and Development Party (AKP) have integrated Islam into national identity through policy reforms, education, and historical discourse. Drawing on perspectives from the politics of religion and political sociology, and employing conceptual frameworks such as Public Religion and Political Islam, this article adopts a qualitative research approach based on library research and Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis to trace the relationship between discourse, power, and the construction of national identity, as well as the ideological dynamics between secular and religious groups in Turkey’s contemporary public sphere. The findings indicate that despite their differing approaches to religion, both Atatürk and Erdoğan employed centralized and symbolic forms of power to shape national narratives. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of state–religion relations in the politics of the modern Muslim world, offering a critical reflection on the future of democracy, pluralism, and religious freedom in Turkey.

Abstract

Infrastructure development in buffer zones such as Maros Regency of Indonesia’s Sulawesi Island presents a dilemma between the push for modernization and the preservation of local traditional values. Amid the rapid expansion of roads, bridges, and tourism projects, local communities face disruptions to the social, cultural, and economic spaces that have long sustained their way of life. This study aims to analyze the social responses of the Maros community to infrastructure development, particularly in the context of the tension between tradition and modernity. A qualitative approach was employed, using an exploratory case study design conducted in three villages: Jenetaesa, Tukamasea, and Salenrang. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and local documentation, and analyzed using Pierre Bourdieu’s theories of habitus and social fields. The findings reveal that development has led to the transformation of symbolic spaces, shifts in power relations, and the emergence of unequal access to development benefits. Community responses vary, including forms of cultural resistance, conditional social negotiation, and hybridization between traditional values and modern elements. This study concludes that technocratic development, when lacking cultural sensitivity, poses a threat to social cohesion. Therefore, sustainable development in local contexts requires a participatory approach that recognizes communities as active agents in shaping the direction of change.

Abstract

Paolle Dance is one of the traditional performing arts of the mountain communities in Bantaeng Regency, South Sulawesi, which serves not only aesthetic functions but also social, spiritual, and symbolic ones. This article examines how Paolle Dance constructs and represents the symbolic identity of indigenous communities through its performance structure, movement symbols, music, costumes, and social context. This type of research is qualitative with a dance ethnography approach (ethnochoreology). In explaining this phenomenon, the study draws on ethnochoreological perspectives as developed by Kaeppler and symbolic anthropology as proposed by Geertz, which emphasize dance as a system of meaning embedded in social and cultural practices. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and field documentation. The results show that Paolle Dance plays an important role in maintaining social and spiritual harmony through traditional rites, serving as an arena for articulating collective identity, and performing regulative functions within the community. Symbolic elements in the performance, such as body movements, traditional musical instruments, and costume attributes, carry deep meanings linked to the community's cosmology and social structure. Amid cultural change and expansion, Paolle Dance undergoes adaptation while maintaining its core values through symbolic resistance by the indigenous community. This study concludes that Paolle Dance is a living cultural expression that actively shapes, maintains, and negotiates the identity of mountain communities in changing local and global contexts. Theoretically, this study contributes to the development of ethnochoreological and symbolic anthropological perspectives by providing empirical evidence of how traditional dance functions as a dynamic system for constructing and sustaining cultural identity.
Simbolisme Ritual dan Legitimasi Kepemimpinan Adat: Kajian Etnografi Tradisi Munirin Reje Masyarakat Gayo Aceh Timur, Indonesia: Ritual Symbolism and Traditional Leadership Legitimacy: An Ethnographic Study on the Munirin Reje Tradition of the Gayo Community in East Aceh, Indonesia Ahmad Nubli Gadeng; Asiah; Daska Azis; Ruliani Ruliani; Ramli Ramli

Abstract

This study explores Munirin Reje, a sacred purification and inauguration ritual practiced by the minority Gayo ethnic community in Simpang Jernih, East Aceh, Indonesia. The tradition plays a pivotal role in legitimizing customary leadership (Reje) and reinforcing social cohesion within the framework of local ethno-governance. Employing a qualitative micro-ethnographic approach, data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, including with customary elders, and artifact analysis. The findings indicate that the ritual serves as a multidimensional instrument of political legitimacy and moral accountability. The symbolic use of water and peusijuek acts as a spiritual cleansing that elevates the Reje's moral authority. Importantly, the study highlights a crucial gendered mechanism of check-and-balance: the Bines dance performed by women serves as a platform for bottom-up social control, conveying constructive political criticism and advice through oral poetry prior to the leader's inauguration. Furthermore, genealogical knowledge transmission (Muyang–Datu–Awan–Ama) ensures the historical continuity of indigenous governance. The paper concludes that Munirin Reje is not merely a static ceremony, but a dynamic system of indigenous political ethics. To ensure its sustainability, the study recommends embedding its cultural values into inter-generational active participation and supporting its practice through local village development funds

Abstract

Religious moderation has emerged as a central concept shaping the trajectory of religious freedom, primarily through the lenses of social tolerance and religious tolerance. A failure to distinguish between these two forms of tolerance carefully risks rendering the problem of religious truth both relative and biased. Consequently, efforts to promote religious moderation may inadvertently give rise to a new form of religious pluralism. This study employs a research-based literature review and critical analysis, drawing on Robert Audi’s ontological commitment as its primary philosophical framework. The methodology integrates three systematic elements: first, interpretation is used to identify and articulate the core problems inherent in religious moderation; second, induction is employed to derive general conclusions about the concept of religious moderation; and third, heuristics are applied to explore the concept ontologically, epistemologically, and axiologically. The findings reveal that a nuanced distinction between social tolerance and religious tolerance is essential to prevent the dilution of religious truth claims while still fostering a pluralistic public sphere. Furthermore, the study identifies that without a strong ontological foundation as articulated by Audi religious moderation risks either descending into relativism (if tolerance is overemphasized) or lapsing into exclusivism (if truth claims are overemphasized). Thus, the findings demonstrate that a balanced, ontology-based approach can provide a more fundamental and coherent understanding of the actualization of religious freedom in Indonesia.

Abstract

The sustainability of organizational performance among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Palu, Indonesia, is increasingly linked to the transcendental values held by employees. This study examines how religiosity influences employee engagement, community solidarity, and workplace performance, specifically addressing the theoretical gap in how spiritual beliefs shape organizational outcomes within the MSME sector. Drawing on Social Exchange Theory (SET) and Self-Determination Theory (SDT), this research explores the mechanism by which religious values—such as moral duty, prayer, and ethical mindfulness—contribute to a meaningful work environment. A quantitative approach was employed to analyze survey data collected from MSME employees across Palu, using path analysis to evaluate structural relationships among variables. The findings reveal that religiosity serves as a "spiritual contract" that fosters strong community connections and heightened moral responsibility, both of which drive job satisfaction and productivity. Specifically, the study demonstrates that when personal faith-based values align with MSME objectives, employees experience greater autonomous motivation and resilience in balancing work-life challenges. Furthermore, the results highlight that religious teachings promote empathy and collective well-being, significantly enhancing team solidarity within local enterprises. This research contributes to Organizational Behavior and Workplace Spirituality by recognizing religiosity as a strategic factor in fostering a supportive, inclusive, and resilient MSME ecosystem in Palu, Indonesia. The study suggests that integrating spiritual values into business practices can nurture long-term organizational success and employee well-being in local enterprise contexts.

Abstract

This study examines Saro Doi, a marriage tradition practiced in North Maluku, Indonesia. The tradition involves giving money to the bride and groom during a wedding ceremony. The money is usually attached to a small stick resembling a flag and placed in a designated container or handed directly to the couple. While many traditional practices in Indonesia are declining due to social change and modernization, Saro Doi remains widely practiced and continues to evolve within the community. This research employs Malinowski’s functionalism theory to analyze the meanings and functions of the tradition. Using a descriptive qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, data were collected through observations of Saro Doi practices and interviews with selected community informants. The findings indicate that Saro Doi contains complex symbolic meanings related to social status, reciprocity, kinship, and family honor. Functionally, the tradition demonstrates both manifest and latent functions. Its manifest function is facilitating monetary contributions during marriage ceremonies. In contrast, its latent functions include strengthening ethnic and gender identities, fostering social cohesion, promoting transparency, supporting marital ideals, and encouraging community interaction. This study contributes to cultural anthropology and the study of tradition by highlighting the enduring significance of local cultural practices.
