Abstract

This article analyzes how a regional library in Indonesia functions as a cultural agent in preserving Islamic values embedded in the Pacu Jalur tradition. Grounded in a cultural literacy framework, this study employs a qualitative case study approach, with primary data collected through in-depth interviews with 12 key informants (librarians, community leaders, and users), participatory observation, and document analysis at the Kuantan Singingi Library and Archives Office. The findings reveal that the library implements three-pronged strategy: curating specialized collections, organizing community-based literacy activities, and utilizing digital media for wider dissemination. The study’s core novelty lies in its effort to bridge library science and local cultural studies, offering an alternative model for how institutional actors can systematically safeguard living traditions as expressions of Islamic civilization. The analysis also affirms the role of libraries in sustaining values such as ukhuwwah (brotherhood), discipline, and spirituality, while noting challenges related to limited resources and digital infrastructure. The article concludes by proposing practical strategies—including digitization, cross-sector partnerships, and librarian capacity building—to strengthen libraries as custodians of local Islamic heritage. Artikel ini menganalisis peran perpustakaan daerah sebagai agen budaya dalam melestarikan nilai-nilai Islam dalam tradisi Pacu Jalur. Berlandaskan kerangka literasi budaya, studi kualitatif kasus ini mengumpulkan data primer melalui wawancara mendalam dengan 12 informan kunci (pustakawan, tokoh masyarakat, dan pengguna), observasi partisipatif, dan analisis dokumen pada Dinas Perpustakaan dan Kearsipan Kabupaten Kuantan Singingi. Hasil penelitian mengungkap tiga strategi utama: penyediaan koleksi khusus, penyelenggaraan kegiatan literasi berbasis komunitas, dan pemanfaatan media digital untuk diseminasi. Kebaruan inti penelitian ini terletak pada upaya menjembatani ilmu perpustakaan dan studi budaya lokal secara empiris, menawarkan model alternatif tentang bagaimana aktor kelembagaan dapat secara sistematis menjaga tradisi hidup sebagai ekspresi peradaban Islam. Studi ini juga menegaskan peran perpustakaan dalam menjaga nilai-nilai seperti ukhuwwah, disiplin, dan spiritualitas, sekaligus menyoroti keterbatasan sumber daya dan infrastruktur digital. Artikel ditutup dengan menawarkan sejumlah strategi praktis—termasuk digitalisasi, kemitraan lintas sektor, dan peningkatan kapasitas pustakawan—untuk memperkuat perpustakaan sebagai penjaga warisan Islam lokal.

Abstract

This article examines why Yemen’s post–Arab Spring democratic transition failed, asking how civil war reshaped political outcomes in a fragile democratization context. While existing studies often treat civil war as a consequence or background condition, this article advances the novel argument that armed conflict functioned as a decisive causal mechanism that transformed political incentives, eroded institutions, and displaced democratic competition with coercive power. Drawing on Democratic Peace Theory, the study argues that in systems marked by weak institutions and fragmented elite coalitions, incomplete democratization may intensify conflict rather than constrain it. Methodologically, the article employs a Comparative Historical Analysis that combines longitudinal data from the Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) dataset (2010–2025) with qualitative evidence from policy reports and academic sources. Process tracing is used to reconstruct critical junctures, including the 2011 transition agreement, the failure of the National Dialogue Conference, and the 2014 Houthi takeover. Yemen is analyzed as a negative case in comparison with post–Arab Spring transitions that avoided civil war. The findings demonstrate that Yemen’s democratic failure was not driven solely by elite bargaining failures or sectarian polarization, but by civil war itself, which reconfigured elite strategies, accelerated institutional collapse, and produced path-dependent authoritarian outcomes

Abstract

This article examines the wave of violence triggered by accusations of witchcraft (dukun santet) in Banyuwangi between 1998 and 1999, which resulted in more than 194 deaths. The killings emerged amid the political, economic, and social crises preceding the collapse of Indonesia’s New Order regime. Accusations of santet were not merely expressions of popular belief but were actively produced and instrumentalized as tools of mass mobilization. Political stigmatization that associated alleged witches with communism, combined with the interests of both local and supra-local actors, significantly accelerated the scale and spread of violence. The study analyzes the relationship between witchcraft accusations and violent mobilization during a period of political transition by mapping key actors, networks, and patterns of action. It further examines how myths, rumors, and collective imaginaries functioned to legitimize killing. In addition, the article assesses the broader socio-cultural consequences of the killings, particularly their impact on civic identity, collective memory, and shifting configurations of power in the Reformasi era. Methodologically, the research combines empirical analysis and theoretical reflection, drawing on Charles Tilly’s concept of violence and Claude Lévi-Strauss’s theory of myth. Primary sources include court and police records, the East Java Regional Archives, reports from the National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM), and contemporary mass media coverage. The findings show that political, economic, and cultural dynamics shaped violence and effects on Banyuwangi’s social identity and collective memory. Artikel ini mengkaji gelombang kekerasan yang dipicu oleh tuduhan ilmu sihir (dukun santet) di Banyuwangi pada 1998-1999 yang mengakibatkan lebih dari 194 kematian. Pembunuhan-pembunuhan tersebut terjadi di tengah krisis politik, ekonomi, dan sosial menjelang runtuhnya rezim Orde Baru di Indonesia. Tuduhan santet tidak semata-mata merupakan ekspresi kepercayaan popular, melainkan secara aktif diproduksi dan dimanfaatkan sebagai sarana mobilisasi massa. Stigmatisasi politik yang mengaitkan para terduga penyihir dengan komunisme, yang dikombinasikan dengan kepentingan aktor-aktor lokal dan supra-lokal, berperan besar dalam mempercepat dan memperluas eskalasi kekerasan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengungkap hubungan antara tuduhan santet dan mobilisasi kekerasan masa transisi politik, memetakan aktor-aktor kunci, jaringan, dan pola-pola tindakan. Lebih lanjut, artikel ini menganalisis bagaimana mitos, rumor, serta imajinasi kolektif berfungsi untuk melegitimasi pembunuhan. Selain itu, studi ini menilai dampak sosial-budaya yang lebih luas dari pembunuhan tersebut, khususnya terhadap identitas kewargaan, ingatan kolektif, dan perubahan konfigurasi kekuasaan pada era Reformasi. Secara metodologis, penelitian ini menggabungkan analisis empiris dan refleksi teoretis, dengan merujuk pada konsep kekerasan kolektif Charles Tilly dan teori mitos Claude Lévi-Strauss. Sumber-sumber primer meliputi arsip pengadilan dan kepolisian, Arsip Daerah Jawa Timur, laporan Komisi Nasional Hak Asasi Manusia (Komnas HAM), serta pemberitaan media massa sezaman. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dinamika politik, ekonomi, dan sosial-budaya membentuk kekerasan tersebut serta berdampak pada identitas social dan memori kolektif masyarakat Banyuwangi.

Abstract

Nigeria is characterized by significant religious diversity, especially between Islam and Christianity, which has historically led to frequent horizontal conflicts influenced by religious, social, political, and economic factors. The tensions have been further exacerbated by religious conversion disputes, the enforcement of Sharia law in several northern states, socioeconomic disparities, and the rise of extremist organizations such as Boko Haram. This essay seeks to analyze the influence of Islamic teachings in promoting harmonious coexistence and explores the participation of Muslim youth in addressing Muslim–Christian disputes in Nigeria. This study utilizes a qualitative, library-based research methodology, drawing on primary Islamic texts (the Qur’an and Hadith), relevant scholarly literature, and documented of religious conflict and peacebuilding in Nigeria. The results demonstrate that Islamic teachings significantly prioritize justice, tolerance, compassion, discussion, and forgiveness as essential tenets for harmonious coexistence within religiously diverse communities. These ethical norms are both normative and provide practical guidelines for conflict resolution. Moreover, the study highlights the crucial role of Muslim youth in Nigeria as agents of peace through their involvement in interfaith discussion, community-based projects, peace education, and grassroots organizations that involve young individuals from diverse religious backgrounds. Their active involvement fosters the restoration of trust, diminishes bias, and interrupts cycles of violence among religious communities. This study suggests that the incorporation of Islamic ethical values and the proactive involvement of Muslim youth significantly contribute to sustained reconciliation and harmonious cohabitation between Muslims and Christians in Nigeria. Nigeria merupakan negara dengan keragaman agama yang tinggi, terutama Islam dan Kristen, yang dalam sejarahnya kerap mengalami konflik horizontal bernuansa keagamaan, sosial, politik, dan ekonomi. Ketegangan tersebut diperparah oleh isu konversi agama, penerapan hukum syariah di beberapa negara bagian Nigeria Utara, ketimpangan pembangunan, serta munculnya kelompok ekstremis seperti Boko Haram. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran ajaran Islam tentang koeksistensi damai serta keterlibatan generasi muda Muslim dalam upaya rekonsiliasi konflik antara Muslim dan Kristen di Nigeria. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi pustaka dengan mengkaji sumber-sumber primer Islam (al-Qur’an dan hadis), literatur akademik, serta laporan dan dokumen terkait konflik dan perdamaian di Nigeria. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa ajaran Islam secara normatif menekankan nilai keadilan, toleransi, kasih sayang, dialog, dan pemaafan sebagai fondasi koeksistensi damai dalam masyarakat plural. Nilai-nilai ini tidak hanya relevan secara teologis, tetapi juga memiliki implikasi praktis dalam proses rekonsiliasi konflik. Selain itu, generasi muda Muslim di Nigeria memainkan peran strategis sebagai agen perdamaian melalui dialog lintas agama, kegiatan sosial bersama, pendidikan perdamaian, dan gerakan akar rumput yang melibatkan pemuda lintas iman. Keterlibatan aktif generasi muda ini memperkuat upaya rekonsiliasi dengan membangun kepercayaan, mengurangi prasangka, serta memutus siklus kekerasan antar komunitas. Dengan demikian, integrasi ajaran Islam tentang koeksistensi damai dan partisipasi generasi muda Muslim memiliki kontribusi signifikan dalam membangun perdamaian berkelanjutan antara Muslim dan Kristen di Nigeria.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how religious trauma among Indonesian Muslim diasporas is produced, reproduced, and negotiated in digital spaces, and how these experiences contribute to the transformation of religious identity in a global-digital context. Beyond the experience of physical migration, Indonesian Muslim diaspora engage in ongoing religious identity negotiation through sustained exposure to digitally mediated religious norms circulating within transnational online publics. Employing a qualitative case-study approach, the research analyzes approximately 150 units of digital data collected from YouTube and TikTok between 2021–2024, including short videos, comment threads, and public interviews involving Indonesian Muslim diaspora figures. The data were examined through thematic digital discourse analysis combined with a social exegesis approach. The findings indicate that religious trauma is largely generated through digitally mediated moral judgment, the algorithmic amplification of rigid religious narratives, and the public delegitimation of individual religious choices. At the same time, digital platforms function as counter-spaces for healing, enabling narrative expression, community support, and inclusive reinterpretations of Islamic teachings. This study proposes the concept of digitally mediated religious trauma. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis bagaimana trauma religius di kalangan diaspora Muslim Indonesia diproduksi, direproduksi, dan dinegosiasikan di ruang digital, serta bagaimana pengalaman tersebut berkontribusi terhadap transformasi identitas keagamaan dalam konteks global-digital. Diaspora Muslim Indonesia mengalami proses negosiasi identitas religius tidak hanya melalui pengalaman migrasi, tetapi juga melalui paparan berkelanjutan terhadap norma-norma keagamaan yang termediasi secara digital dan beredar dalam ruang publik daring transnasional. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi kasus yang melibatkan sekitar 150 unit data digital yang dikumpulkan dari platform YouTube dan TikTok pada periode 2021–2024, meliputi video pendek, kolom komentar, dan wawancara publik yang melibatkan figur diaspora Muslim Indonesia. Analisis data dilakukan melalui analisis wacana digital tematik yang dipadukan dengan pendekatan tafsir sosial. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa trauma religius terutama dihasilkan melalui penghakiman moral yang termediasi secara digital, amplifikasi algoritmik terhadap narasi keagamaan yang rigid, serta delegitimasi publik atas pilihan keagamaan personal. Di sisi lain, platform digital juga berfungsi sebagai ruang tandingan bagi proses pemulihan melalui artikulasi naratif, dukungan komunitas, dan reinterpretasi ajaran Islam yang lebih inklusif. Penelitian ini mengajukan konsep trauma religius termediasi digital.
