Abstract

This article aims to explore the profound philosophy of life held by the Mandailing ethnic group in maintaining the relationship between humans and the environment from a cultural ecological perspective. Employing an ethnohistorical approach, this research analyzes and synthesizes relevant ethnographic literature along with field research data. The focus of this study is on the philosophies "Poda Na Lima" and "Holong do Maroban Domu, Domu Maroban Parsaulian" as locally inherited wisdom passed down through generations by the Mandailing ethnic group to foster a harmonious relationship with nature. Key figures such as village chiefs, traditional leaders, religious figures, and community elders from Mandailing Natal Regency serve as research subjects and informants. The research findings conclude that "Poda Na Lima" and "Holong do Maroban Domu, Domu Maroban Parsaulian" impart local wisdom values such as compassion, cleanliness, and health in maintaining the harmonization of the relationship between humans and nature. These philosophies continue to be inherited and practiced in the daily lives of the Mandailing community, particularly among agrarian populations in rural areas. In practice, nature is positioned as a source of wisdom, not an object of exploitation, and is internalized to preserve ecological balance.

Abstract

Historical and Archaeological Potential Exploration Program in Barus, Central Tapanuli Regency, North Sumatra that was carried out in 2017 had discovered Islamic cemetery complexes distributed throughout the area that have potential as destinations for archaeological tourism. This is supported by the data obtained from field surveys to each cemetery complex and focus group discussion conducted with local residents of Barus. This study focuses on exploring the potential of five cemetery complexes comprising the Mahligai Cemetery, Papan Tinggi Cemetery, Tuan Ambar Cemetery, Ibrahim Syah Cemetery and Tuan Machdum Cemetery to serve as archaeological tourism destinations. The process of spreading Islam carried out by the ulama or Muslim scholars and the existence of various types of tombstones are subjects of attraction for visitors. In the process of developing a cemetery complex as a destination, it is necessary to improve public facilities such as the construction of museums or galleries, places of worship, parking lots, and public toilets. Improving the human resources are also a necessity, which can be done by empowering the local residents.

Abstract

The focus of this research is on the strategies for preserving Seudati dance by the Pidie Jaya government in the era of disruption. Pidie Jaya is one of the regencies known for the Seudati dance, and many prominent Seudati leaders, known as "syeh," hail from this region. This research was conducted in Pidie Jaya Regency, with the location chosen due to the observed phenomenon that the youth are no longer interested in learning and performing Seudati. Data collection techniques in this research included participant observation, where the researcher directly observed the subjects to gather data. In addition to participant observation, in-depth interviews were also employed as a technique for collecting data. The results of the research indicate that the youth are abandoning Seudati because the digital world is more appealing than Seudati. Furthermore, learning Seudati is not as easy as learning other dances. In response to these challenges, the Pidie Jaya government has made efforts to preserve Seudati through several approaches. First, they utilize digital media itself as a platform for Seudati campaigns. They also give recognition to Seudati maestros, creating a positive impression for all parties involved. The government promotes Seudati in extracurricular activities through the Gerakan Seniman Masuk Sekolah. Additionally, they are reactivating village dance studios and providing spaces for expression, such as the Pekan Kebudayaan Pidie Jaya.

Abstract

This study looks at the wisdom of song lyricists during the celebration of hari raya, as depicted through Islamic values and thoughts. The research question revolves around the extent to which song lyricists produce works that embody Islamic values and thoughts in celebrating the triumphs of the Islamic community. The objective of this study is to identify the Islamic values and thoughts within ten raya songs sung by Siti Nurhaliza. The researchers utilised the conceptual framework of local wisdom that aligns with the goals and functions of Islamic artistic works. The aim of Islamic art is to bring Muslims closer to Allah, imparting values of monotheism, faith, morality, and camaraderie, advocating goodness and preventing evil. Therefore, any song lyrics embodying the values of monotheism, devotion, faith, ethics, or any elements promoting goodness and well-being are categorised as Islamic values and thoughts. The findings indicate that the lyrics of the raya songs not only entertain but also encompass ten Islamic values and thoughts. Among the values and Islamic thoughts are monotheism, gratitude, remembrance, soul purification, sincerity, and so on. The raya song lyrics can guide individuals towards salvation in this world and the hereafter.

Abstract

Local democracy in the village is essentially based on these rights of origin and traditional rights. This paper aims to discuss the problems of villages in exercising their rights of origin in Indonesia. To understand how these rights of origin are implemented, this article refers to the practice of Nagari as a customary legal community unit in West Sumatra Province. Not only that, enrichment related to implementing rights of origin also refers to Desa Pakraman in Bali Province. This article uses a literature study derived from documents that have been published from various sources such as articles in scientific journal, mass media news, and official government documents. This article finds that problems in the application of origin and traditional village rights arise because of strict government regulations that encourage village governments to focus on carrying out governance functions in their area. Using the principles of recognition and subsidiarity in the administration of village government results in an attitude of ambiguity in the administration of village government. As a result, the village government prefers to implement the household authority handed over to it accompanied by a budget through Village Fund transfers rather than developing the original rights that have become the identity of pre-existing local democracy.

Abstract

Fansubs are very popular these days in China because of the general public's expanding cultural need. However, the behavior of producing fansubs constitutes a violation of copyright law in essence both in China and in the world since all the audiovisual materials translated and distributed in China have not obtained authorization from copyright owners of foreign movies and television shows. The aim of this study is to explore the reasons why fansub groups in China would keep distributing foreign films and TV shows online with subtitles translated by them despite concern over piracy and copyright. This paper would adopt a method of qualitative research with a focus on content-analysis by observing and analyzing highly relevant discussions on Zhihu, Weibo and Douban, which are Chinese online platforms where users can engage in discussions on various topics. Based on observation and analysis, the paper would discuss the phenomenon of fansubbing in terms of three aspects: awareness of copyright infringement, intrinsic motivation for participation and material considerations. By examining the reasons for fansubber participation and the operation mechanism for this practice situated in a copyright environment, the paper hopes to come up with possible suggestions for protecting the intrinsic motivation for fansubbers while enhancing legal justice, order of the market and creativity of the society.

Abstract

Bhikhu Parekh's conceptualization of multiculturalism offers a significant contribution to the theoretical and practical debates surrounding multiculturalism in highly diverse urban societies. In the realm of theory, Parekh's notions of multiculturalism provide an alternative discourse to the prevailing emphasis on individual and minority rights within liberal frameworks. Conceptually, Parekh categorizes cultural diversity in modern/urban societies into three forms: 1) subcultural diversity; 2) perspectival diversity; 3) communal diversity. Furthermore, he divides multiculturalism into several models, including isolationist multiculturalism, accommodative multiculturalism, autonomous multiculturalism, interactive multiculturalism, and cosmopolitan multiculturalism. This philosophical perspective on multiculturalism holds relevance in the context of managing ethnic and religious diversity in Indonesia. It underscores the emergence of awareness and 'sensitivity' to differences, starting with political and religious leaders becoming more attuned to the diversity of distinctions.
