Abstract

The aim of this research is to conduct a semiotic analysis of the artistic symbols and da'wah messages in the Jaranan Tril Turonggo Mudo Dance from Blitar, East Java. This study employs a qualitative research approach, with the subjects including dancers, cultural figures, and members of the community who appreciate the Jaranan Tril performance and possess in-depth knowledge about it. These subjects consist of one spiritual leader, one trainer, two dancers, and one resident of Gogodeso Village, Kanigoro District, Blitar Regency. Informants were selected using purposive sampling. Data collection techniques included interviews, observation, documentation, and literature review. The data were analyzed qualitatively using a descriptive method, with the analysis results presented in narrative form to explain the phenomena examined in this research. The findings reveal that the Jaranan Tril Dance performance is divided into three acts: the opening act (bukak kalangan), the main session, and the final session (kesurupan) and closure. Each session carries symbolic meaning. The opening act is intended to seek protection from the Creator and symbolizes the start of the Jaranan Tril Dance performance. This session includes an introductory sequence of five movement types that express the prowess of warriors or knights as heroes, embodying boldness and courage. The main session features three movement types symbolizing warfare. The kesurupan (trance) and closing session hold symbolic meaning related to beliefs in the existence of other, unseen life forms, or invisible spirits. During the kesurupan session, the possessed dancers (caplokan) perform unconscious actions and feats. This study recommends that future researchers interested in similar topics explore other types of Jaranan dances found across Java, which may offer new and deeper perspectives on the cultural and symbolic richness of Jaranan dance in this region.

Abstract

The decline in the marriage rate in Indonesia in the last decade is a complex phenomenon with many interrelated causes. The institution of marriage, once a strong tradition binding two individuals in a commitment to live together, has undergone significant changes in recent decades. The latest data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) shows a decreasing trend in the marriage rate nationally. In 2023, there will only be 1,577,255 marriages recorded in Indonesia, a decrease of 128,000 from the previous year. During the last decade, the marriage rate experienced a significant decline of 28.63 percent. In-depth research highlights the socio-economic factors, changes in mentality, and the influence of online mass media, especially social media, that play a role in this change. The influence of online mass media, particularly social media, is also a factor that cannot be ignored in understanding changing attitudes towards the institution of marriage. Social media has broadened access to information and facilitated communication between individuals in unprecedented ways. Not only does this change the way individuals interact and form relationships, but it also influences perceptions of traditional values such as marriage.

The media used are print media, mass media, and social media, but unfortunately, they have not used traditional communicative media such as puppets in Java; non-electoral communicators provide good feedback, but electrally, they have not produced lousy feedback.

However, for the Regional People's Representative Council, the Perindo Party can place its representatives in Jakarta, Kalimantan, Maluku, etc.

Abstract

This article examines the management of marine tourism in Lanjukang Island, a tourist destination located in the Spermonde Islands, Makassar City, South Sulawesi, with a focus on the role of maritime diplomacy in increasing tourism potential while preserving marine resources. This research uses a qualitative approach with literature study methods and interviews with relevant parties, such as local governments and local communities. Lanjukang Island, with its beautiful underwater nature and beaches, faces challenges in the form of coral reef damage due to destructive fishing practices and coastal abrasion processes. Nevertheless, Lanjukang Island remains an attractive tourist destination for domestic and foreign tourists. The Makassar City Government plays an active role in promoting marine tourism through international collaboration, one of which is through the Makassar International Eight Festival and Forum (F8) event. Maritime diplomacy, which emphasizes international cooperation in marine resource management and tourism, plays a key role in facilitating sustainable tourism development on Lanjukang Island. The research found that while there is great potential in the marine tourism sector, more integrated and sustainable management is needed to support the local economy and the preservation of the marine environment. Collaboration between government, community and international partners is essential to achieve a balance between tourism development and nature conservation.

Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the meaning of the message of T-shirts labeled with Balinese terms that are traded as tourist souvenirs in Bali. As a result of qualitative research, research data were obtained through observation, document review, and interviews with several informants of t-shirt consumers as well as observers of fashion and Balinese arts and culture. The data collected were analyzed by communication theory and semiotic theory. The results of the study show that the fashion or form of the t-shirt is a t-shirt without a kra decorated with Latin writing or a Balinese script with artistic and ideological expression motifs. T-shirts labeled Balinese have become part of the creative industry for tourist souvenirs that continues to grow in line with the dynamics of Bali tourism. From the perspective of visual communication, the message of a Bali tourism souvenir t-shirt has the following meanings: (1) introducing Bali tourist destinations, (2) as an expression of the soul of the wearer; (3) introducing group identity, (4) information on a moment of Balinese tradition, and (5) introducing Balinese language and cultural identity to the public. T-shirt tourism souvenirs that introduce Balinese cultural identity need to be continuously developed.

Abstract

This research explores the role of social media in shaping collective identity among users in contemporary society. By employing a qualitative methodology that includes in-depth interviews and content analysis, the study investigates how individuals create and share content that reinforces their group affiliations and fosters a sense of belonging. The findings reveal that social media platforms serve as vital spaces for community building, where users share personal narratives and visual content, and engage in discussions that highlight shared values and experiences. Key themes identified include the impact of different content types on identity formation, the influence of community leaders and influencers, and the significance of intersectionality in shaping collective identities. While positive interactions on social media can strengthen group cohesion, negative experiences and the prevalence of echo chambers can lead to fragmentation and exclusion. This research underscores the dual nature of social media as both a tool for connection and a potential source of division. Ultimately, the study contributes valuable insights into the complexities of identity formation in the digital age and emphasizes the need for inclusive and supportive online environments. As social media continues to evolve, understanding these dynamics is essential for fostering social cohesion and empowering communities in an increasingly interconnected world.

Abstract

International conflicts significantly impact maritime tourism development in Southeast Asia, a region rich in natural marine beauty and essential to the regional economy. Destructive international disputes, including geopolitical tensions and naval security threats, can significantly disrupt the regional stability on which tourism is built. Although maritime tourism in Southeast Asia continues to show post-pandemic growth, conflict risk remains a significant challenge that could affect traveler confidence and hinder the sector's contribution to regional GDP. The impact of international conflicts on the development of maritime tourism in Southeast Asia is analyzed in this research using a qualitative approach and literature study method. Journals, articles, and reports were reviewed to understand how geopolitical tensions and maritime security threats affect the tourism sector. The study utilizes conflict theory to explain the dynamics of conflict escalation and the application of resolution efforts in this context. Therefore, the potential disruption of maritime tourism development by ongoing conflicts in the Southeast Asian region is highlighted. The sustainability of the industry relies on security stability, and regional cooperation is crucial in mitigating the negative impact of conflict on the economic sector.
