Abstract

This paper pays attention to the issue of religious freedom in Indonesia. Freedom of religion is one of the individual rights of every person. People are free to choose religion according to their minds. By reason, it means that humans recognize the values that are sparked in a religion. The duty of the state is to guarantee religious freedom. In the Indonesian context, freedom of religion is guaranteed in the legal basis contained in the 1945 Constitution. However, it is inevitable that this kind of freedom is also subject to discriminatory treatment. To underline this, Spinoza, a philosopher who greatly respected reason, explained the importance of religious freedom as an individual choice. Freedom of religion according to him should not be restrained by any authority. This paper was written using the literature method which tries to confront Spinoza's thoughts on religious freedom with the issue of religious freedom in Indonesia.

Abstract

Protecting and ensuring nature is a choice and also a necessity for many people to protect their lives. Everyone is competing and fighting for a beautiful and well-maintained environment. However, the activities that are deployed with all their strength and determination by humans actually lead them to fall into the effort to improve nature and forget a root relationship between nature and humans themselves, namely sublimity. Through the reflection of works in the form of landscapes presented by one of the Indonesian artists, humans are able to be reintroduced to this sublime state to rebuild a full relationship with nature.

Abstract

This paper specifically explores the human understanding of participant Gabriel Marcel, which is motivated by the problems surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Participant human understanding is a form of answer to the problem of human existence in the midst of a sick world. The methodology of this paper is interpretive. The author tries to elaborate Gabriel Marcel's thoughts with the phenomena surrounding the pandemic and also the new world order due to the pandemic. From the results of this elaboration, the author finds that in order to reorganize this ailing world, everyone must be a human participant and not a human spectator. The journey to become a participant human begins with an awareness of his existence as a human being. The concept of human participant Gabriel Marcel must be recognized as a sharp philosophical reflection in understanding human existence. This thought is the starting point for the birth of humans who are aware of their social responsibilities as human participants who always have a heart towards others and the world.

Abstract

Radicalism is a deviant thing and has an impact on women. Women are considered to be the perpetrators in an act of violence such as terrorism. In his understanding, radicalism does not only have its own interests, but is very subject to the perspective of the majority. The notion of radicalism can be seen in terms of religion, social, or violent-conflict. Even women have always been the most affected by the existence of radicalism. Therefore, this study aims to discuss Johan Galtung's conflict transformation theory and Peter Neumann's religious violence. This study uses qualitative methods through literature study and descriptive analysis of current radicalism. The results of this study indicate that what Johan Galtung said is related to conflict theory and Peter Neumann, so there must be a basic reference regarding the impact of radicalism on women in every authoritarian government policy in the name of religion and gender.
