Abstract

The manganan tradition is one of the forms of local wisdom that continues to be preserved by the community of Sumur Kulon, Plumpang. This tradition is carried out on certain nights around a well that is believed to have historical and spiritual significance. The community believes that a wali (Islamic saint) once stayed in the area while spreading Islamic teachings, which makes the place regarded as sacred and blessed. In the past, the well was known for its clear water that could be consumed by the local community, making it a symbol of life and divine blessing for the surrounding society. The manganan tradition is performed through a communal meal preceded by prayers and tahlil as an expression of gratitude to Allah SWT. This activity is not only understood as a cultural ritual but also as a form of respect for religious figures who played a role in spreading Islam in the region. In addition, the tradition reflects various religious and social values, such as gratitude, togetherness, mutual cooperation, and respect for historical heritage. Furthermore, the manganan tradition also plays an important role in strengthening social bonds among community members and preserving the local cultural identity. Thus, this tradition represents a harmonious integration between religious values, historical memory, and local wisdom that continues to be maintained by the community to this day.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the tradition of Malem Songo Marriage within the framework of cultural Islam as a form of acculturation between Islamic teachings and local traditions of the coastal community in Tuban. This research employs an empirical normative method with case and historical approaches, using interviews, observations, and literature studies for data collection. The results show that the Malem Songo Marriage tradition is a marriage practice conducted on the 29th night of Ramadan and has been passed down through generations. This tradition reflects a harmonious acculturation process between Islamic values and local culture, where its implementation still fulfills the pillars and requirements of a valid marriage in Islam. From the perspective of Islamic law and state law, this practice is considered legitimate as long as it is not accompanied by absolute beliefs regarding certain times determining the success of marriage. In addition, this tradition also holds religious, social, and economic values, such as strengthening social solidarity and reducing wedding costs. Therefore, Malem Songo Marriage can be understood as a form of cultural Islam that is adaptive without deviating from Islamic principles.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the continuity of socio-religious practices in the Bucu Kendit tradition within the community of Senori, Tuban, with a focus on its functions, values, and relevance amid the currents of modernization. The research employs a qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. Observation is conducted to directly understand the process of implementing the tradition, while interviews are carried out with community leaders and practitioners to explore the meanings and values embedded within it. Documentation is used to complement the data in the form of records and related archives. The findings reveal that the Bucu Kendit tradition not only serves as a cultural ritual but also functions as a means of social integration, a medium of community communication, and a reinforcement of spirituality through practices of prayer and expressions of gratitude to Allah SWT. Furthermore, this tradition embodies values such as mutual cooperation, solidarity, unity, and the internalization of religious values that contribute to shaping the character of the community. Amid the challenges of globalization, this tradition remains relevant as a cultural safeguard and a form of cultural da'wah that adapts to contemporary developments. The novelty of this research lies in its comprehensive analysis based on field data, integrating the social, religious, and educational aspects of the Bucu Kendit tradition as a model of local wisdom in strengthening the socio-religious resilience of modern society.

Developing financial character from an early age is a strategic step in preparing a generation that is independent and disciplined in managing economic resources. However, elementary school students' understanding of the importance of financial management through saving is often limited to theoretical aspects without ongoing practice. This study aims to increase the interest and understanding of elementary school students in Sumberjaya Village regarding the importance of saving from an early age as a means of educating them about personal financial management. The method used in this program is a direct training approach through interactive socialization and practical pocket money management. The results of the activity indicate an increase in children's interest in setting aside a portion of their pocket money for savings, as well as a growing understanding of the benefits of saving in meeting future needs. The conclusion of this study confirms that participatory training is effective in developing positive habits and financial discipline in children, although more optimal timing is needed for its implementation.

Abstract

Community empowerment based on local potential plays an important role in improving village welfare. The village of Cikawung in Garut has a variety of spice commodities such as nutmeg, cloves, ginger, palm sugar, and cardamom, which are local economic potentials. This study aims to identify the economic potential of Cikawung's spice community, reveal the factors hindering empowerment in the spice sector (particularly road access, facilities, and human resources), and analyze the role of participatory empowerment models in increasing community capacity. The research method was a qualitative case study with a participatory approach; data was obtained through field observations, in-depth interviews with community leaders (Mr. Yadi and Mr. Rahyat), and documentation. The main results show that the potential of local spices in Cikawung has not been optimally utilized. Significant obstacles include inadequate road infrastructure, limited production facilities, and low access to knowledge and motivation among local human resources. Meanwhile, the application of a participatory model involving residents from planning to product marketing appears to be able to increase a sense of ownership and business sustainability. It is concluded that to maximize the potential of Cikawung spices, inclusive empowerment programs, continuous training, and strengthening of marketing networks are needed so that spice management becomes a source of sustainable income.

Abstract

The rapid progression of globalization has had a significant impact on various sectors of national life, ranging from ideology, politics, economics, socio-culture, to national security. While global openness creates opportunities for growth and expands international cooperation, it simultaneously introduces challenges that may disrupt a nation’s identity, stability, and sovereignty. This study aims to examine the dynamics of Indonesia’s national resilience amid the integration of global society through a literature review approach. Data were collected by analyzing books, scholarly articles, journals, and other relevant documents related to national resilience and contemporary global threats. The findings indicate that national resilience is often influenced by non-traditional threats such as cyberattacks, misinformation, digital radicalism, and the infiltration of foreign cultures that may weaken national identity. Therefore, strengthening national character, improving digital literacy, enhancing cybersecurity, and ensuring political stability are strategic efforts to build adaptive national resilience. This study also emphasizes the importance of collaboration between the government, society, educational institutions, and the private sector to achieve comprehensive and sustainable national resilience.

Abstract

This study examines how Law Number 24 of 2007 concerning Disaster Management was implemented in the Special Region of Yogyakarta during the Mount Merapi eruption. The focus of this study is to determine the extent to which the legal framework can promote effective, coordinated, and sustainable disaster management in areas prone to volcanic hazards. The research indicates that, particularly in terms of institutional frameworks, early warning systems, coordination between stakeholders such as the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD), the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (PVMBG), and community participation in the Disaster Resilient Village program, the law's implementation has been relatively good. However, the study also identified several issues that hinder optimal implementation. These include a lack of community preparedness, policy inconsistencies across administrative regions, and limited institutional resources at the regional level. The results suggest that cross-regional coordination should be strengthened, standard operating procedures should be updated based on empirical experience, and disaster literacy should be improved through ongoing education and simulations. Consequently, this research contributes to the development of a more sustainable, flexible, and inclusive volcanic disaster management policy in Indonesia.

Abstract

Due to a combination of geographic factors, low rainfall, prolonged dry seasons, and the effects of global climate anomalies such as El Niño, chronic drought is worsening in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) Province. This situation impacts communities in various ways, including limited access to clean water, decreased agricultural productivity, food insecurity, increased health risks, and a disproportionate socioeconomic burden on women and children. This study found that there is a structural gap between local government distribution capacity and community water needs. This gap is caused by limited infrastructure, poor inter-agency coordination, unstable funding, and a lack of integration of climate data into water governance planning. Based on the results, this study recommends the use of an integrative and adaptive approach to improve water governance. It is hoped that implementing these policy recommendations will increase community resilience to drought and provide support to developers and communities in water resource management. These policy recommendations also include the implementation of an integrated water security information system, the establishment of a multi-sectoral coordination team, the development of water infrastructure responsive to local ecological conditions, and the implementation of an early response funding mechanism based on climate forecasts.
