Abstract

Trams played an important role in the development of Semarang City from 1881 to 1940. As a mode of transportation in the city, trams are not only a means of transporting passengers and goods, but also a major driver of economic growth and urban spatial development. This research uses historical methods, including heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The results show that the Semarang-Juana steam tram, operated by Samarang-Joana Stoomtram Maatschappij (SJS), is the backbone of transportation to connect produce production areas with ports, as well as encourage urbanization and economic growth. Trams also form new economic corridors and expand social interaction between community groups. However, trams eventually disappeared due to the development of transportation technology and changes in urban spatial planning.

Abstract

This study examines the formation of the heroic identity of Santung in the Kuala Jambi community using historical research and a collective memory approach. Collective Memory is a collection of memories or past awareness of a group of people that are reinterpreted in the present and become a reflection of life together. Santung is a fighter figure who fought to defend Indonesian independence in Kuala Jambi. Santung was killed when the Dutch attacked Santung's house on January 4, 1949. To appreciate Santung's struggle, the community called Santung a hero from Kuala Jambi, but over time, the story of Santung's heroism gradually faded. This reseach use history method with memry studies approach. The process of remembering carried out by so many people on a certain time scale, and then passed down to the next generation, will form a collective memory structure. Based on these events, the author is interested in revealing the process of forming the heroic identity of Santung in Kuala Jambi

Abstract

The transformation of Indonesian historiography from the centralized and hegemonic pattern of the New Order to a more plural form in the post-Reformasi era, and its implications for writing the history of Islamic civilization. During the New Order, the state monopolized the production of historical knowledge through curricula, textbooks, films, the Indonesian National History project, and strict control over archives and sensitive themes such as the 1965–66 massacres, state violence, and ethnic conflicts. The 1998 Reformasi disrupted this singular authority and opened space for non-state actors independent scholars, local communities, pesantren, victims’ organizations, women’s activists, and investigative journalists to articulate alternative narratives highlighting the experiences of marginalized groups. This pluralization encouraged the development of local history, women’s history, oral history, and multidimensional as well as phenomenological approaches that integrate written archives, oral testimonies, and cultural sources. In the study of the history of Islam in Indonesia, the focus is no longer limited to the state and canonical ulama, but also includes local ulama networks, Sufi orders, pesantren, and the everyday lives of Muslim communities. The article argues that post-Reformasi openness not only enriches historical themes and actors but also demands methodological and ethical renewal, so that pluralization does not collapse into relativism but instead leads toward a more democratic, reflective, and inclusive historiography.
