Abstract

Pendirian Kadipaten Ponorogo (1486 M) merupakan hasil resolusi konflik antara Raden Batoro Katong (Kesultanan Demak) dan Ki Ageng Kutu (Wengker) yang dipicu oleh perbedaan keyakinan dan perebutan hegemoni politik. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis model rekonsiliasi hibrida yang diterapkan Raden Batoro Katong untuk mencapai perdamaian dan persatuan pasca-konflik. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian historis dengan tahapan heuristik, historiografi kritis, dan interpretasi, yang membedah data menggunakan kerangka teori resolusi konflik modern. Kajian ini menyimpulkan bahwa model rekonsiliasi Batoro Katong meliputi dua jalur utama: strategi politik yang diwujudkan melalui negosiasi, penggunaan taktik kuat, dan pembentukan kabinet rekonsiliasi; serta strategi ideologis yang diimplementasikan melalui Islamisasi kultural yang damai. Upaya ini menjadi solusi untuk mengakhiri perang, sekaligus fondasi struktural dan kultural identitas kolektif masyarakat Ponorogo. The establishment of Ponorogo Regency (1486 AD) was the result of the conflict resolution between Raden Batoro Katong (Demak Sultanate) and Ki Ageng Kutu (Wengker) which was triggered by differences in beliefs and the struggle for political hegemony. This study aims to analyze the hybrid reconciliation model implemented by Raden Batoro Katong to achieve post-conflict peace and unity. The method used is historical research with heuristic stages, critical historiography, and interpretation, which dissects the data using the framework of modern conflict resolution theory. This study concludes that Batoro Katong's reconciliation model includes two main paths: a political strategy realized through negotiation, the use of strong tactics, and the formation of a reconciliation cabinet; and an ideological strategy implemented through peaceful cultural Islamization. This effort became a solution to end the war, as well as a structural and cultural foundation for the collective identity of the Ponorogo people.

Abstract

The digital age has fostered the emergence of virtual marriage, posing unprecedented legal and socio-cultural challenges. This study examines the socio-cultural implications of digital marriage and analyzes the transformation of ritual meaning in the era of mediatization. Utilizing a qualitative approach with thematic analysis and case studies from various Indonesian regions, this research evaluates how technology redefines the concepts of "sacredness" and "presence" through the lens of Randall Collins' interaction ritual chains and Erving Goffman's dramaturgy. Findings reveal that while technology offers accessibility and efficiency, it also triggers the deinstitutionalization of marriage, where traditional rites of passage are transformed into mediatized projects oriented toward social visibility and the "experience economy." The study concludes that the success of virtual rituals depends on the ability of participants to synchronize their focus and emotional energy despite physical distance. Recommendations include the development of a flexible socio-legal framework that acknowledges digital intimacy while preserving the fundamental essence of the marriage institution as a communal pillar. Era digital memicu fenomena pernikahan virtual yang menghadirkan tantangan hukum dan sosial-budaya baru. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji implikasi sosial-budaya pernikahan digital dan menganalisis transformasi makna ritual dalam era mediatisasi. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan analisis tematik dan studi kasus dari berbagai wilayah di Indonesia, studi ini mengevaluasi bagaimana teknologi mendefinisikan ulang konsep "kesakralan" dan "kehadiran" melalui lensa teori rantai ritual interaksi Randall Collins dan dramaturgi Erving Goffman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun teknologi menawarkan aksesibilitas dan efisiensi, ia juga memicu deinstitusionalisasi pernikahan, di mana ritus peralihan tradisional berubah menjadi proyek mediatisasi yang berorientasi pada visibilitas sosial dan "ekonomi pengalaman." Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa keberhasilan ritual virtual bergantung pada kemampuan partisipan untuk menyinkronkan fokus dan energi emosional meskipun terpisah secara fisik. Rekomendasi yang diajukan meliputi pengembangan kerangka sosial-hukum yang fleksibel yang mengakui intimitas digital sambil tetap mempertahankan esensi fundamental institusi pernikahan sebagai pilar komunitas.

Abstract

The research aims to establish a theological foundation for elder care that integrates biblical principles with traditional Nigerian values while responding to current challenges faced by Nigeria's ageing population. The problem addressed is the growing disconnect between Nigeria's expressed cultural values of elder reverence and the lived reality of many elderly Nigerians who experience various forms of abuse, neglect, and marginalisation. Methodologically, this research employs a multidisciplinary approach integrating (1) exegetical analysis of Leviticus 19:32 within its historical and theological context; (2) review of gerontological literature on elder experiences and challenges in Nigeria; (3) comparative analysis of biblical principles and traditional Nigerian cultural values regarding elder care; and (4) application of contextualised hermeneutics to bridge ancient text and contemporary social challenges. The findings reveal that Leviticus 19:32 establishes elder care as a theological imperative rather than merely a cultural preference, connecting respect for the aged directly with reverence for God. This divine mandate encompasses both symbolic gestures (rising in their presence) and practical support structures that recognise the intrinsic dignity of elderly persons. The research identifies substantial alignment between biblical principles and traditional Nigerian values regarding elder reverence while highlighting how both systems are challenged by contemporary socioeconomic realities. The study further demonstrates how religious institutions can play a crucial role in revitalising elder care practices through their extensive community networks and moral influence.

Abstract

This study examines the development of Islam in China through the history of translation and the analysis of Koran manuscripts from codicological and cultural perspectives. Using a descriptive, library-based research method with content analysis, data were drawn from Islamic history literature, translation history, and Koran codicological studies. The findings indicate that the translation of the Koran into Chinese was significantly delayed due to the intellectual isolation of Chinese Muslims, the dominance of Arabic as a sacred language, and linguistic and cultural differences between Arabic and Chinese. Furthermore, Koran manuscripts produced in China between the 13th and 14th centuries exhibit stylistic and structural influences from Central Asian manuscript traditions, transmitted through Muslim migrant communities, both orally and in manuscript copies. This study enriches Koranic studies and Islamic historiography in East Asia by highlighting the dynamic interaction between Islamic sacred texts and local cultural traditions.  Studi ini meneliti perkembangan Islam di Tiongkok melalui sejarah penerjemahan dan analisis manuskrip Al-Quran dari perspektif kodikologi dan budaya. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif berbasis pustaka dengan analisis isi, data diambil dari literatur sejarah Islam, sejarah penerjemahan, dan studi kodikologi AlQuran. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa penerjemahan Al-Quran ke dalam bahasa Tionghoa sangat tertunda karena isolasi intelektual Muslim Tiongkok, dominasi bahasa Arab sebagai bahasa suci, dan perbedaan linguistik dan budaya antara bahasa Arab dan Tionghoa. Lebih lanjut, manuskrip Al-Quran yang diproduksi di Tiongkok antara abad ke-13 dan ke-14 menunjukkan pengaruh gaya dan struktur dari tradisi manuskrip Asia Tengah, yang ditransmisikan melalui komunitas migran Muslim di sepanjang Jalur Sutra, baik secara lisan maupun dalam bentuk manuskrip. Studi ini memperkaya studi Al-Quran dan historiografi Islam di Asia Timur dengan menyoroti interaksi dinamis antara teks-teks suci Islam dan tradisi budaya lokal.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the strategic role of the Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union within the university environment in educating the younger generation about national culture. In addition to highlighting its positive contributions, this study also critically identifies various obstacles and root causes that limit the organization's effectiveness in the process of internalizing cultural values. Through a theoretical approach and supported by the results of a survey of 167 respondents from among lecturers and students, it was found that the presence of this organization is crucial in shaping the character of students. These findings are expected to provide scientific and practical contributions for socio-political organizations and universities in formulating strategic solutions to optimize the role of student unions in the present and future. With the right orientation, it is hoped that a new generation of Vietnamese will emerge who are not only professionally skilled in their fields but also possess integrity and a strong pride in the nation's cultural heritage and noble values. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendalami peran strategis Persatuan Pemuda Komunis Ho Chi Minh Vietnam di lingkungan universitas dalam mengedukasi budaya nasional kepada generasi muda. Selain menyoroti kontribusi positifnya, studi ini juga secara kritis mengidentifikasi berbagai hambatan serta akar permasalahan yang membatasi efektivitas organisasi tersebut dalam proses internalisasi nilai-nilai budaya. Melalui pendekatan teoretis dan diperkuat oleh hasil survei terhadap 167 responden dari kalangan dosen serta mahasiswa, ditemukan bahwa kehadiran organisasi ini sangat krusial dalam membentuk karakter mahasiswa. Temuan ini diharapkan mampu memberikan kontribusi ilmiah dan praktis bagi organisasi sosial-politik maupun perguruan tinggi untuk merumuskan solusi strategis guna mengoptimalkan peran serikat mahasiswa. Dengan orientasi yang tepat, diharapkan lahir generasi baru Vietnam yang tidak hanya mahir secara profesional di bidangnya, tetapi juga memiliki integritas serta kebanggaan yang kuat terhadap warisan dan nilai-nilai luhur budaya bangsa.
