Abstract

The Lom Tribe is the oldest tribe in Bangka Belitung, commonly referred to as the Lom people. During the colonial administration, the Bangka Malays were divided according to their religion, namely the La Tribe for Malays who had embraced religion, and the Lom Tribe for Malays who did not yet receive a religion. This paper aims to reckon the efforts of fulfilling the rights of the Lom Tribe, focusing on two main questions: first, what is the strategy of the Lom Tribe to access public services, especially population administration, education, and marriage? Second, are there still discriminatory practices for the Indigenous People of the Lom Tribe in accessing public services? This study employs a qualitative approach with an ethnographic approach, which aims at revealing the socio-cultural meaning in a particular context. The results show that in accessing public services, indigenous peoples use an institutional approach, build networks with stakeholders at the local level, as well as through the Indonesian Supreme Council of Trustees (MLKI). Discriminatory practices are still found in accessing public services, both in population administration, education, and marriage services for the Lom Tribe. For this reason, the Constitutional Court Decision No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016 and Permendikbud 27/2016.

Abstract

This research undertakes an ethnographic exploration of the intricate impact of historical trauma on individuals hailing from Timor-Leste, specifically those who underwent forced migration during the tumultuous events surrounding the 1999 referendum. By centering on the life trajectories of Timor-Leste's former residents across multiple generations, the study delves into the complex interplay of trauma, economic challenges, the role of catholic church and the dynamic role played by digital technology in the lives of those who sought refuge in Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia as the coping mechanisms adopted by these individuals as they navigate the profound traumas arising from the conflict. Additionally, the study aims to examine their resilience in the face of adversities, particularly during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, it seeks to unravel the intricate ways in which digital technology, encompassing smartphones and social media platforms, has become an influential factor in shaping their intricate life trajectories. Through a nuanced exploration of these elements, the research endeavours to contribute valuable insights into the multifaceted dimensions of the post-traumatic experiences of this community and the evolving role of technology in their coping mechanisms and adaptation strategies.

Abstract

Interdisciplinary studies demand an understanding of multiple disciplines across disciplines. In the social sciences discipline, the results of sociology research are growing rapidly and have formulated new theories that can be utilized in interdisciplinary studies. Among these is the theory of social conflict. The perspective of social conflict departs from the assumption that inequality exists in all societies. Social conflict theory focuses on various aspects of power status in social positions. Individual identification characteristics are viewed from ethnic or ethnic perspectives, gender, age, religion, expertise, and social status. This social conflict theory can be applied as a perspective in interdisciplinary Islamic studies, this is due to the aim of Islamic studies is to describe the relationship between Islam and various aspects of human life, explaining the spirit (ethos) of Islam in the form of moral and values within Islamic teaching. Thus, approaching Islam through the lens of social conflict theory within Islamic studies got it relevance as Islamic teaching responses to various new paradigms as a result of advances in science and technology and the emergence of new philosophies and ideologies as well as the relationship between Islam and the vision, mission, and goals of Islamic teachings.

The research uses in-depth interviews with Ahmadiyya members in the Mataram Transito Dormitory. This study finds that the MUI Fatwa serves as legitimacy for society in carrying out violence and persecution of the Lombok Ahmadiyya Congregation and the influence of Tuan Guru through their daily life and lectures at the mosque.

Abstract

Apart from being a medium for entertainment simulation, video games also provide a representation of the social world. Game industry developers always carry out research to provide socio-cultural, historical and philosophical system content to enrich the content in the game. The story background in video games aims to provide experiences and impressions for the players. This research aims to qualitatively explore forms of religious representation that are simulated in open world video games. So players can play role characters in the game to experience spirituality and religiosity. Either through latent and manifest narratives or through moral choices in the context of developing the storyline and Player character in the Game. This research uses Emile Durkehim's sociological perspective of religion regarding Karl Marx's totemism and commodity fetishism to observe the incarnation of the gaming industry as an altar of worship for its players, as well as Jean Baudrillard's postmodernist perspective with his simulacrum concept to analyze the form of simulation and representation of religious symbols that appear in the game. these open world games... This research finds that the use of simulations and the distribution of representations of religious signs or symbols in games forms a religion simulacrum or a blurring of spiritual boundaries between the pseudo and the real. Video games build the Player's construction of religiosity and spirituality virtually in a simulated world that contains ritual practices, ethics, morality, cosmology, metaphysics, and theology.

Abstract

Today's culture or tradition is filled with cultural values or local wisdom and has economic and political content. It causes the opening of space for cultural capitalization that prioritizes selling or exchanging values and not using values. The study aims to explore the cultural commodification that occurs in the Bau Nyale tradition in the Sasak NTB community, including the existence of the Bau Nyale tradition, the commodification of Bau Nyale, to the value transformation and shifting in the Bau Nyale tradition in the Sasak NTB community. This study is qualitative research with primary data sources, namely community leaders such as Adat and the Sasak people in general. The data obtained through interviews, books, and articles are then interpreted using the commodity approach of Karl Marx. The analysis results show that the Bau Nyale tradition in the Sasak community today is not just a tradition of catching Nyale (sea worms) for the Sasak people. More than that, the Bau Nyale tradition has various dimensions and goals, including economics. In this case, Bau Nyale has become a secondary activity as an activity or tradition that follows the primary activity, namely economic activity. The commodification that occurs in the Bau Nyale tradition in the Sasak community causes a shift in orientation and even raises social problems such as gambling, fights, and even murder cases.
