Abstract

Religious moderation is a crucial element in maintaining social harmony in Indonesia, especially in cities with religious diversity such as Semarang. Balinese Hindu traditions play a significant role in strengthening the values of tolerance and mutual respect through various cultural and religious practices. This study analyzes how Balinese Hindu traditions, including the Melasti ceremony and the Nyepi celebration, contribute to religious moderation in Semarang. This study uses a narrative descriptive approach with the aim of understanding in depth how Balinese Hindu traditions contribute to promoting religious moderation in Semarang. The data collection method was carried out through direct observation,in-depth interview, And Documentation analysis. Observations were conducted by observing religious practices and cultural activities involving the Balinese Hindu community as well as the participation of non-Hindus in religious events. Interviews were conducted with religious leaders, community leaders, and individuals involved in interfaith activities to gain a broader perspective on social interactions and the application of religious moderation values. Documentation analysis included literature studies from academic journals, official reports, and relevant statistical data to strengthen the research findings. The results of the study indicate that interfaith interactions in the Balinese Hindu tradition can increase understanding and respect between religious communities, as well as strengthen social harmony. In addition, cultural festivals and interfaith activities play an important role in building dialogue and cooperation between communities. These findings confirm that the Balinese Hindu tradition not only functions as a cultural identity, but also as an effective means of promoting religious moderation in a multicultural environment.

Abstract

The phenomenon of quiet quitting describes a phenomenon where employees only fulfill tasks according to job descriptions without taking further initiative, as a response to changes in social values and expectations of the workplace. This study explores the phenomenon of quiet quitting in the context of changes in the professional ethos of Generation Z with a sociological approach. The results of the study indicate that quiet quitting is not only related to burnout or exhaustion, but also a reflection of the mismatch between employee expectations and work reality. Generation Z prioritizes work-life balance, mental health, flexibility, and inclusivity, which is in contrast to a work culture that prioritizes excessive hard work. In this context, alienation theory suggests that lack of recognition, control, and meaning in work can trigger quiet quitting behavior. This study proposes that organizations need to adjust their policies and leadership styles to create a work environment that is more supportive of employee well-being and engagement, which in turn will improve performance and loyalty to the company

Abstract

The transformation of local cultural values in the lives of young people is becoming an increasingly relevant issue in the midst of rapid globalization and accelerated urbanization. This article aims to examine how these two major forces affect the understanding, appreciation, and practice of local cultural values among the younger generation. Globalization brings popular culture, information technology and transnational lifestyles that often conflict with traditional values such as collectivity, respect for customs and emotional attachment to local communities. Meanwhile, urbanization creates a social environment that tends to be anonymous, competitive and pragmatic, thus diminishing the role of traditional social environments as guardians of cultural values. Through an in-depth literature study, this article finds that young people in various parts of Indonesia experience a complex process of cultural identity negotiation. On the one hand, they are exposed to modern values that promise progress and social mobility, but on the other hand, they still have cultural ties inherited by family and community. This transformation process is not linear, but rather shows a pattern of selective adaptation that can open up opportunities for the revitalization of local culture in a new format that is more contextual and relevant. With a reflective and participatory approach, education based on local culture and digital media can be an important tool in bridging traditional values with the dynamics of modern life of the younger generation

Abstract

This study explores the phenomenon of flexing as a status representation strategy in the digital visual economy, particularly on the Instagram platform. Flexing, or the practice of visually showcasing a luxurious lifestyle, is understood not simply as personal expression, but as part of the logic of affective and algorithmic capitalism that shapes the digital habitus of contemporary society. In this context, self-image becomes a symbolic commodity exchanged for visibility and social validation, creating performative pressures that are both emotional and structural. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach through netnographic observation and semi-structured interviews to uncover how millennials and Gen Z individuals engineer their lifestyle images as a form of aesthetic and affective labor. The analysis shows that flexing blurs the boundaries between reality and illusion, reproducing inequality through commodified visual aesthetics. Within this dynamic, flexing can be read as a form of co-optation of neoliberal ideology, but also as a symbolic strategy for negotiating social position within an exclusionary structure. This research emphasizes that digital social pleasure is not a neutral space, but rather an arena filled with power relations, algorithmic pressures, and fantasies of meritocracy. Thus, fake lifestyles on social media are a structural symptom of the crisis of representation and the pressures of performativity in the contemporary digital economy.

Abstract

This study evaluates the implementation of the Additional Employee Income (Tunjangan Penghasilan Pegawai or TPP) policy for civil servant teachers (Aparatur Sipil Negara – ASN) in Mimika Regency, Indonesia, using six public policy evaluation indicators: effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and accuracy. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, incorporating semi-structured interviews with education stakeholders and analysis of teacher attendance documentation from 2023 to 2024. The findings reveal substantial discrepancies in 2023 between biometric (fingerprint) attendance and compliance with instructional duties. For example, in SMK Negeri 3 Mimika, the fingerprint attendance rate was 90%, yet only 13% of teachers complied with teaching-hour requirements; similarly, SMP Negeri 3 recorded 78% attendance but only 12% compliance. Improvements were observed in 2024, with the attendance-compliance gap narrowing significantly e.g., SMK Negeri 1 Mimika (95% vs. 90%) and SD Inpres Timika V (90% vs. 88%). Despite these improvements, interviews indicate that the TPP policy has not led to meaningful enhancements in teaching quality, pedagogical innovation, or long-term commitment. The policy is perceived as inefficient due to bureaucratic rigidity, financially inadequate in relation to cost-of-living disparities, and insufficiently responsive to the structural challenges of remote and underserved schools. Consequently, policy reform is urgently required to ensure that the TPP system is performance-based, contextually adaptive, and aligned with the broader goals of public sector accountability and equitable education outcomes.

Abstract

This study investigates the contribution of the Cangkrukan Arek Suroboyo (CAS) Program to community empowerment particularly youth in the context of Surabaya’s urban development planning. In response to the multifaceted challenges posed by rapid urbanization, community participation has become a critical pillar in the formulation of inclusive and sustainable urban policies. The CAS Program represents an innovative participatory mechanism initiated by the Surabaya City Government to foster dialogic communication between citizens and local authorities, rooted in local cultural practices. Employing a qualitative research design, this study collected data through in-depth interviews, surveys, and document analysis. Findings reveal that community empowerment through the CAS Program encompasses five key dimensions: cognitive, psychological, organizational, socio-economic, and participatory. The program has demonstrated effectiveness in enhancing youth knowledge, self-efficacy, active engagement, and decision-making capacity at the grassroots level. Furthermore, CAS has fostered social cohesion, strengthened individual and collective capacities, and cultivated a participatory ecosystem that positions youth as agents of urban transformation. These findings suggest that the CAS Program can serve as a replicable model for sustainable and inclusive community empowerment in urban governance.

Abstract

The development of social media has reconfigured the dynamics of identity formation and stigma reproduction for LGBT+ youth in the conservative Indonesian context. This study aims to examine how LGBT+ youth interpret their identities and confront stigma in digital spaces, using a qualitative approach based on literature studies and a phenomenological framework. Social media, on the one hand, provides an alternative space that enables the expression of gender and sexual identities through dynamic performative practices. However, on the other hand, digital platforms also become arenas for the reproduction of symbolic power that reinforce heteronormative norms through hate speech, negative labeling, and biased algorithmic moderation. In this situation, LGBT+ youth develop resistance strategies through the formation of online communities, social campaigns, and the production of affirmative narratives. This phenomenon reflects the importance of digital agency in the process of identity emancipation, while also revealing the dilemmas of visibility and security experienced by vulnerable groups. This analysis demonstrates that social media is a complex and transformative terrain of identity politics and emphasizes the need for more inclusive policy design and digital literacy. This study contributes to the academic literature by offering a deeper understanding of LGBT+ youth's subjectivities in navigating social stigma through digital spaces in contemporary Indonesian society.

Abstract

This study examines the socio-economic impacts of agricultural land conversion into industrial areas in rural Indonesia using qualitative methods based on literature. This transformation drives a process of de-agrarianization that alters income sources, work structures, and social identities in rural communities. Land conversion triggers diversification of livelihood strategies, increases land prices, and shifts in asset ownership, but compensation that is not managed productively has the potential to undermine economic independence. The impact on food security and sovereignty is significant, as reduced harvested areas reduce local production and increase dependence on external supplies. The shift in values from a subsistence ethos to an industrial logic triggers cultural lag, erodes social cohesion, and changes gender roles and domestic work patterns. The presence of migrant workers and the demand for industrial skills create new social stratifications that widen inequalities. Institutional factors such as transparency in compensation and strengthening village institutions determine whether this change leads to upward mobility or structural poverty. This study emphasizes the need for mitigation strategies that combine structural and cultural dimensions, including land protection, skills development, and strengthening social capital, to ensure rural industrialization is inclusive and does not deepen inequality. These findings are expected to inform equitable and sustainable village development policies

Abstract

The licensing service for the issuance of Business Identification Number (NIB) at the Public Service Mall (PSM) DPMPTSP Jombang Regency is an integrated service that facilitates business actors in obtaining business legality through the Online Single Submission (OSS) system. The goal is to provide convenience, speed, and legal certainty for the community in starting a business, as well as supporting the investment climate and regional economic growth in an efficient and transparent manner. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the service of issuing Business Identification Numbers (NIB) at the DPMPTSP Public Service Mall in Jombang Regency, including the quality of service, obstacles faced, level of community satisfaction, and the impact of services on business legality and ease of doing business in the area. The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. The Goal-Based Evaluation Theory was first developed by Michael Scriven, with the following indicators: (i) Time Efficiency, (ii) Quality of Service, (iii) Process Efficiency, (iv) Inter-Agency Coordination, (v) Compliance to Standards and Regulations, (vi) Impact of the Program. The results of the study show that NIB services at PSM Jombang run effectively with fast service times and high community satisfaction (IKM 91.08). Services are assessed both in terms of cost, officer attitude, and complaints. However, there are still constraints on turnaround times, complicated procedures, and OSS system disruptions. The solution for its sustainability is the need to simplify procedures, improve human resources and OSS systems, socialize more widely, and strengthen coordination between agencies to speed up the service process.

Abstract

The Victim Recovery and Prevention of Gross Human Rights Violations Program (PKPHAM) is a policy of the Indonesian government launched to respond to the demands for justice for victims of gross human rights violations in the past, as well as to strengthen national reconciliation based on justice and humanity. This study aims to evaluate the results of the implementation and monitoring of the PKPHAM program through a qualitative approach using William N. Dunn's public policy evaluation theory which includes six main indicators: (1) Effectiveness, (2) Efficiency, (3) Adequacy, (4) Equity, (5) Responsiveness, and (6) Accuracy. The findings of this study show that the implementation of the program still faces a number of obstacles, including; limited validated victim data, lack of coordination between implementing agencies, and there are several forms of assistance that are not suitable for the concrete needs of victims. On the monitoring side, the approach used is still administrative, with no clear impact indicators and adequate victim participation. Evaluations show that most programs are still symbolic and have not substantially fulfilled the victims' rights to truth, justice, reparation, and guarantees of non-recurrence. Thus, in order for PKPHAM to become an effective and sustainable program, fundamental improvements are needed in the design and implementation of policies that are oriented towards the fulfillment of victims' rights as a whole. The state needs to strengthen political commitments, improve the victim-based monitoring system, and adopt a participatory, accountable, and fair approach in realizing transitional justice in Indonesia.
