Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has encourage more women not to return to work during the pandemic. This adversely affects not only women's welfare but also economic progress and women's independence. The Sharia Borrowing Program from the Sharia Cooperatives assisted by Rumah Zakat is one of the efforts to provide capital to women who have micro businesses in order to be able to maintain their business activities during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study aims to determine the impact of empowering women by Rumah Zakat through the sharia savings and loan program during the Covid-19 pandemic. This research is a descriptive research and uses a qualitative approach. The data collection method used in-depth interviews conducted to 12 members of BUMMas, Village Officer, Relawan Inspirasi and the management of the Mitra Insan Mandiri Cooperative in Gilingan Village and the Berkah Bersama Cikeusik Cooperative in Pandeglang Regency. The results of the study show that women who are members of savings and loan groups are able to take advantage of interest-free financing to maintain their economic business so as not to go out of business during the Covid-19 pandemic. Savings and loan activities are also able to educate members to set aside income as member savings in cooperatives so that they can become future savings. Through regular member coaching, there is a change in the mindset of members to no longer access loans to moneylenders who pay high interest.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is one kind of public diplomacy arena in this context.

Abstract

This paper investigates two sides effects of COVID-19 pandemic on democracy in Indonesia. Majority articles on democracy and pandemic argue that COVID-19 pandemic has declined democracy in many countries, including Indonesia. This article, on the one hand agrees with the dominant argument, but on the other hand argues that the COVID-19 pandemic also contributed to maintain democracy. This paper bases democracy on Beetham's notion whose defined democracy as popular control over public affairs with the principles of equality and participation. In order to examine relationship between democracy and pandemic, we use three issues as case studies: the Minerba Bill, the Omnibus Law and data transparency issues. This paper uses qualitative methods and data obtained by literature study regarding civil society’s participation and control in public affairs during the last a year. Two main findings of this paper show that the pandemic has accelerated democratic decline trough two directions, they are from above and from below. Decline from above due to restrictions of freedom of speech and civil participation in public affairs. At the same time, decline from below occurred due to people cleavage in public health issues. In addition, disinformation spread by buzzer which redistributed by other people has been made this situation worse. Otherwise, pandemic also maintained democracy through strengthening civil society's networks and participation marked by strengthening digital activism network toward country’s policy and data transparency. It may be concluded that civil society play a crucial role in maintaining global democracy, especially during the pandemic.

Abstract

The emergence of Covid-19 at the end of 2019 became the starting point for a new multidimensional threat to the world. This pandemic situation is an obstacle to the relationship maintenance among nations which are generally carried out traditionally. Various innovations are needed because there is a shifting paradigm in various sectors of life rapidly. Some countries have made several adjustments related to its diplomacy with other countries to ensure the continuity of relations between countries and the welfare of their citizens in this pandemic era. In the Islamic world, the control of pandemic has been done before so that it can be one of the solution options. This study begins by describing the changes in diplomacy carried out by Southeast Asian countries with Muslim majority populations during the pandemic. The next step was done by analyzing the changes in diplomacy that have been carried out by those countries with Islamic diplomacy. This study aims to determine the extent to which the diplomatic changes carried out by these countries are viewed from the Islamic perspectives. The results obtained show that several diplomatic activities carried out by those Southeast Asian countries are in accordance with Islamic diplomacy. However, there are still some aspects of Islamic diplomacy that these countries can adapt in the future.

Abstract

Premeditatio malorum is a Stoic philosophical concept that speaks about negative visualization of conditions that may come. By imagining, Stoic people could prepare anything to the most specific aspects that may be realized. Meanwhile, post-pandemic condition is related to recovery of everything. Since COVID-19 outbreak changes our life, new normal condition should be filled with preventive actions rather than preemptive ones. Alongside with those, prolonging hope should be always kept in flowing to walk together with people in everyday life. The question is, how may premeditatio malorum contribute to dissemination of hope in post-pandemic recovery today? Using qualitative method, philosophical and cultural concepts are used to explain correlations between premeditatio malorum, living hope, and post-pandemic recovery. The reality of hope does not stand alone but should be accompanied with anticipations of bad impacts that may come. Preparing for inevitable setbacks could contribute more to optimism than being pessimistic or surrender to current conditions. It is matter of practice that will make people calm and shape further hope to amend unavoidable impacts. In conclusion, by thinking negatively, this Stoic concept could overcome negative impacts of future condition. Moreover, premeditatio malorum may provide such framework of thoughts to widen hope to its best and worst conditions that may happen afterwards.

Abstract

Globalization is characterized by advances in science and technology that are inevitable by the community, including the people of Surakarta. People in Surakarta are in dilemma between tradition and modernization. Education, transportation, and economic advancement have transformed the social, religious, and cultural aspects of the people in Surakarta over the last three decades. Thus, how is the narrative of the paradigm shift of religiosity of the Surakarta community amid modernization? This descriptive qualitative study collected data through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The analysis employed an interactive analysis model. The findings revealed that the paradigm shift of religiosity of the Surakarta community is directly proportional to the social, political, economic, and cultural changes. There is a shift in the religious perspective of the Surakarta community known as hijrah from the abangan Muslim community to Islamist activism or new santri with all the limitations of understanding and Islamic doctrine, which requires assistance in terms of Javanese Islamic culture and local beliefs to avoid uprooting them. As a result of hijrah and becoming Islamic activism, people left the Javanese culture such as Kejawen and local beliefs. However, some of them have transformed the culture to fit the teachings of Islam. So far, those who hijrah to NU still adhere to religious traditions and even transform Javanese culture to suit the times. Meanwhile, Islamic activism has left Javanese Islamic traditions and local beliefs. The shift in religious paradigm asserts two things. They are internal and external encouragement. First, internal factors are in the form of encouragement from within religious communities. Second, external factors are external stimuli that can encourage a shift in the Surakarta community's religious perspective.

Abstract

The rise of China has become a catchword to define China’s current position in the international system. China’s increasing power comes with responsibility. Continuing Hu Jintao’s peaceful development, Xi Jinping is committed to realising China’s responsibility as a great power. Concurrently, Xi sets out a neighbourhood diplomacy that underlines the importance of bringing development and prosperity to neighbouring states. This paper aims to investigate the way China realise the twin goals of peaceful development. The South China Sea (SCS) disputes involving China and four neighbouring Southeast Asian states serves as a case study. It is found that China's assertiveness, manifested in continued escalations and dragged-on negotiations on the Code of Conduct (COC), does not bode well for China’s peaceful development. In other words, China is hardly a responsible great power or a good neighbour in its handling of the SCS issue.
