Abstract

This study examines the foundational struggle between independent jurists and caliphal power during the Umayyad–Abbasid transition as a critical juncture in Islamic political thought. Through a qualitative historical-comparative analysis that process‑traces the principled resistance of Imams Abū Ḥanīfa and Mālik ibn Anas, it demonstrates how their refusal of state appointments, endurance of torture, and assertion of law above the ruler forged an enduring “separation of powers.” The analysis reveals that their stances institutionalised the ulama as autonomous guardians of Sharia, insulating legal pluralism—the four Sunni schools—from executive manipulation and creating a proto‑constitutional order centuries before Western analogues. The study further traces how this dynamic shaped legitimacy bargains, financial independence, and the soft power of transnational scholarly networks, yielding a normative architecture that constrained tyranny and preserved a vibrant legal tradition. Contemporary implications are drawn for judicial independence, academic freedom, and accountable governance in Muslim‑majority states, anchoring global rule‑of‑law principles in indigenous Islamic heritage.

Abstract

This study investigates the Mamluk–Nusantara nexus (13th–early 16th centuries), a remarkable instance of pre-modern, non-coercive trans-civilizational influence spanning the Indian Ocean. While the Mamluk Sultanate of Egypt and Syria never projected military power beyond Aden, its symbolic revival of the Abbasid caliphate, guardianship of Mecca and Medina, and monopolistic control over the spice trade generated profound ideational attraction in the Malay Archipelago. Employing a qualitative multiple-case-study design and process-tracing methodology, the research draws on Ibn Battuta’s Rihla, Mamluk chancery documents, Jawi manuscripts, and local chronicles to test four hypotheses rooted in constructivist, network, world-systems, and soft-power theories. The analysis reveals that shared Shafi‘i jurisprudence, trust-based Karimi and Hadrami merchant networks, educational pilgrimages to Al-Azhar, and the adoption of Jawi script functioned as conduits for a peaceful, syncretic Islamisation that birthed the tolerant Islam in Nusantara. This multi-causal model challenges realist assumptions by demonstrating that caliphal legitimacy and cultural affinity, not coercion, drove diplomatic alignment and identity formation across 5,000 miles. The findings offer a historical template for contemporary cultural diplomacy, halal trade corridors, and inter-civilisational cooperation, underscoring the enduring relevance of the spice-scented bridge between Cairo and the Archipelago.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan (PKn) dan media sosial dalam meningkatkan kesadaran serta partisipasi politik generasi muda di era digital. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi pustaka (library research) melalui kajian berbagai jurnal, buku, dan literatur ilmiah yang relevan dengan topik penelitian. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa PKn memiliki peran penting dalam membentuk karakter demokratis, sikap kritis, serta tanggung jawab warga negara melalui penanaman nilai-nilai Pancasila dan prinsip demokrasi. Sementara itu, media sosial berperan sebagai sarana utama dalam memperluas akses informasi politik, membangun ruang diskusi publik, serta mendorong keterlibatan politik generasi muda melalui aktivitas digital seperti kampanye online, penyebaran informasi, dan partisipasi dalam isu sosial. Namun, perkembangan teknologi digital juga menimbulkan tantangan berupa penyebaran hoaks, ujaran kebencian, polarisasi opini, serta rendahnya literasi digital dan politik yang dapat memengaruhi kualitas partisipasi politik pemuda. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa partisipasi politik generasi muda mengalami pergeseran dari bentuk konvensional menuju partisipasi berbasis digital yang lebih fleksibel, namun masih memerlukan penguatan literasi politik dan literasi digital agar partisipasi yang dilakukan tidak hanya bersifat kuantitatif, tetapi juga berkualitas, kritis, dan bertanggung jawab dalam mendukung demokrasi.

Abstract

At a time of rising geopolitical tension, climate uncertainty, and declining global trust, Islamic civilisation is often misunderstood as either a historical legacy or a source of conflict. This study challenges those perceptions by showing that Islam remains a dynamic civilisational force shaping governance, finance, diplomacy, security, and environmental stewardship across the modern world. Drawing on classical Islamic sources, academic research, United Nations reports, think-tank analyses, and government documents, it examines how principles such as justice (ʿadl), consultation (shūrā), stewardship (khalīfah), and public welfare (maṣlaḥah) continue to shape contemporary policy and international engagement. The study argues that Islamic civilisation offers practical responses to twenty-first-century challenges through four interconnected dimensions: the modernisation of Hajj governance through advanced technologies, the growing influence of religious soft power in international relations, the resilience and ethical foundations of Islamic finance, and the role of faith-based values in promoting sustainability and conflict resolution. It introduces the concept of strategic entanglement to explain the interplay among religious norms, technological innovation, and geopolitical interests. Ultimately, the research contends that understanding Islam’s constructive civilisational capacity is not merely an academic exercise but a strategic necessity for policymakers seeking pathways towards peace, resilience, and a more inclusive global order in an increasingly fragmented world.

Abstract

This study examines the military supply system in the state of Amir Temur, focusing on the officials responsible for maintaining logistical support and the specific functions they performed. The success of Amir Temur’s military campaigns depended not only on strategic planning and battlefield tactics but also on a well-organized and efficient supply network that ensured the continuous provision of food, weapons, transportation, clothing, and financial resources to the army. Using historical sources such as Temur’s Regulations, Nizamuddin Shami’s Zafarnama, Sharafiddin Ali Yazdi’s Zafarnama, and other historical accounts, the study analyzes the roles of key officials, including bakovul, muhasib, muhassil, tamgachi, treasurer, yasovul, yurtchi, akhtachi, and ghajirchi. The findings reveal that the Timurid military supply system was highly centralized and operated through a coordinated administrative structure in which each official had clearly defined responsibilities. This organization facilitated effective resource management, secure transportation routes, orderly military encampments, financial control, and disciplined troop movements. The study concludes that the efficiency of this supply system was one of the principal factors behind the success, mobility, and long-term operational stability of Amir Temur’s army during extensive military campaigns.

Abstract

This article analyzes the continuity and contradictory nature of socio-civilizational development from the perspective of concepts of historicity, continuity, and modernity. Historicity is illuminated as the need to take into account the past stages of civilization and to critically review experience. It is argued that the continuity of traditions, cultural codes, and intergenerational connections can lead to long-term civilizational silence, while total negation can lead to the loss of identity. Modernity is analyzed as issues of adaptation to the near future in the context of globalization, technogenic transformation, and changes in values. The article examines the contradictions between historicity, continuity, and modernity, as well as the mechanisms of their emergence, using various civilizations as examples.

Abstract

The article analyzes the modern transformation of universities in the context of higher education and science integration, the dialectical nature of the concepts of social conditions and institutional autonomy. The evolution of university development from the Humboldt model to the postclassical period, the transformation of traditional academic values under the requirements of a market economy in globalization are studied. Also, the internal and external factors of the implementation of the principles of academic independence and integrity in national research universities within the framework of the "U10" program are philosophically illuminated.

Abstract

This article examines the transitional period in which society is moving toward a new stage of development and explores the ongoing process of digitalization emerging in the interaction between humans and Artificial Intelligence (AI). In this context, we discuss the concept of a hyperintellectual society as a prospective stage of social evolution. In the contemporary information age, providing a theoretical foundation and explanation for such transformations is considered a highly relevant scientific task. These ideas are expected to attract the interest of readers and encourage deeper reflection on the future trajectory of human civilization.

Abstract

This study examines ½M Coffee as a distinctive phenomenon at the intersection of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 transformation, geopolitical consumer activism, and the evolution of cultural diplomacy. While existing literature addresses specialty coffee markets or soft power separately, this research reveals how a single domestic brand has become an unexpected vehicle for national identity renegotiation, quiet resistance, and global image-making. Through qualitative case study methodology and systematic document analysis—including industry reports, UNESCO inscriptions, FAO technical documents, and regional media—this investigation traces ½M's trajectory from local start-up to transnational symbol. The findings demonstrate three novel contributions: First, ½M's success is not merely commercial but fundamentally political, capitalising on boycott dynamics following the Gaza war to position itself as an ethical alternative to Western chains. Second, the brand exemplifies what this study terms "algorithmic authenticity"—the deliberate crafting of Instagrammable heritage that simultaneously performs tradition and hyper-modernity for digital consumption. Third, ½M functions as an unofficial instrument of Saudi soft power, carrying cultural narratives across borders through every exported tumbler and London flagship visit. This analysis challenges conventional understandings of coffee as an apolitical commodity, arguing instead that in contemporary Muslim-majority markets, specialty coffee has become a terrain where economic ambition, cultural assertion, and geopolitical stance converge. The study concludes by offering policy-relevant insights for sustainable, inclusive coffee diplomacy that balances global reach with authentic heritage preservation.

Abstract

The diffusion of global norms has increasingly shaped debates on social values, identities, and human rights across different societies, including Indonesia. Among these debates, LGBT issues have emerged as a particularly contested arena where internationally promoted norms intersect with locally embedded cultural, religious, and ideological traditions. This study examines how the legitimacy of globally promoted LGBT-related norms is negotiated within Indonesia's existing normative order, with particular attention to the role of Pancasila as the country's foundational normative framework. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research draws upon interviews, questionnaire responses, and document analysis involving LGBT communities, human rights advocates, religious leaders, and state-related institutions. The findings reveal that globalization has expanded the visibility of LGBT discourse through digital media, transnational advocacy networks, multinational corporations, and global cultural flows. However, societal responses extend beyond a simple binary of acceptance and rejection. Instead, state institutions, religious organizations, civil society actors, and members of the LGBT community actively evaluate the legitimacy of externally promoted norms according to Indonesia's constitutional, moral, and cultural foundations. Building on these findings, this article proposes the concept of Selective Norm Internalization to explain how external normative claims acquire, negotiate, or fail to acquire legitimacy within a normative architecture grounded in Pancasila. The study contributes to International Relations scholarship by shifting analytical attention from the diffusion of global norms toward the question of normative legitimacy, demonstrating that the authority to determine the acceptability of external norms remains embedded within locally constituted normative frameworks.
