Abstract

”Teater yang gagah dalam kemiskinan”, itulah teknologi berpikir dalam taraf metafor tingkat tinggi dari WS. Rendra, sang guru; kendati cuma sesobek kain, selonjor bambu, atau sebongkah batu kali, dengan tubuh-tubuh telanjang di atas pentas karena ketiadaan materi, namun seluruh makna dunia terserap di dalamnya. Begitu pun Jerzy Grotowski dengan wejangan ’Teater Melarat’-nya (Poor Theatre) yang lebih mengedepankan ’teknologi tubuh’ untuk menciptakan daya cekam pentas, juga dalam ”Teater Keberingasan” (Theatre of Cruelty) Antonin Artaud, yang tergila-gila kepada spiritualitas Bali itu, di mana tubuh adalah jiwa, bukan materi. Itulah alam kita, dunia kita, yang tak mungkin bisa mengejar teknologi modern Barat yang canggih dan mahal, yang hanya menjadikan kita sebagai budak-budaknya (dalam banyak hal teater kita pun cenderung menjadi budak teater Barat). Semakin kita berupaya mengejar, semakin kecanggihan mereka melesat jauh meninggalkan kita. Apa yang kita anggap pencapaian tercanggih hari ini tidak lain adalah masa lalu mereka sekian dekade yang telah lewat. Lagi apa perlunya mengejar mereka. Alam pikir dan khayal kita berbeda dengan mereka.

Abstract

This paper analyses why theology has to develop a concern with economy and economics and elaborates a perspective for a new debate between theologians and economists about socio-ethical problems in public life. The hermeneutically reflected relationship between church and economic life has been elaborated in a number of principles of community development. Church and economy are seen as two important ‘horizons of human life’. Economic developments, symptoms of crisis and symptoms of stagnation are mainly present in the Church’s social teaching owing to the fact that faith communities and their leaders are confronted with these social problems. This paper approaches the relationship between the two horizons in a perspective of public theology. An open conversation between theology and economics focuses on a new praxis-led theology. Whenever the meaning of ‘the good life’ is attached to the realisation of functions and capacities in the concrete markets within an actual economy, the actuality of the economic reality is placed within a horizon that expresses a sense of that life. It then becomes possible to state that a concrete set of functions and capacities are in service to humanity. Keywords:*community development, *'telos', *public theology, *spirituality, *institution *globalisation *contextualisation, *normative economics, *human dignity, *economics for the common good, *'bonum commune' *good life

Abstract

Telah banyak pemikiran yang mencoba membedah akar-akar fasisme, bentuk-bentuk fasisme. Namun fasisme sepertinya tetap menjadi sesuatu yang sepertinya tak terhindarkan dan menakutkan. Seperti virus, fasisme lahir dengan bentuk-bentuknya yang selalu baru tetapi selalu mencemaskan, seperti benalu yang sulit untuk dibersihkan, seperti rumput yang selalu tumbuh dimana-mana. Masih adakah harapan? Film ini menyodorkan sebuah tawaran via-negativa atas keputusasaan kita berhadapan dengan fasisme dalam segala bentuknya yang selalu baru. Divisualisasikan dengan hitam-putih, film ini hendak berkata,hanya ada dua pilihan: atau iya atau tidak. Dan maaf, tidak ada jalan yang lain.

Abstract

Neturei Karta is a Jewish group that usually considered belongs to larger ‘ultra-Orthodox’ Judaism. This group established its community in Jerusalem since early 19th century, but never acknowledges the modern state of Israel and its administration. Its members never take Israeli Shekel notes, never join the Army Reserve, which is compulsory for adult Israeli, never sing Israel’s national anthem, never celebrate Israel Independence Day, and never set foot to the holiest place in the Judaism, the Wailing Wall – but they pay taxes to the state they hate so much. This paper explores the nature of this group and its position against Zionism. The main focus is about their anti-Zionism ideology in connection with the notion of Jewish ‘homeland’ and ‘diaspora’. Neturei Karta is a transnational religious phenomenon. It may differ from other transnational religious groups in its challenge to Zionism on the issues of ‘(Jewish) homeland’ and ‘Jewish diaspora’. This dissident voice within the Jewish history is deemed important to reassess the the exercise of power by Israeli in dominating and colonizing the Other, the Palestinians. Keywords :*Jewish, *Judaism, *Zionism, *anti-Zionism, *ideology, *diaspora, *homeland, *ultra-orthodox, *exile, *holy land, *promised land, *chosen people, *alienation, *geopiety, *'hyphenated' Jews

Abstract

This article is a result of an ecclesiological and catechetical survey conducted among the Catholics of two parishes in Java. Two themes were explored, namely, (1) relationship of the self and the community, and (2) sharing of experiences as an encounter of faith. These were put within the larger project to search for images from within the local cultures that  may support catechetical materials about the church. This survey was intended to open the theological discourse of the church to the local cultures without proposing particular models to the believers. It explores the sociocultural realities of the local believers without direct reference to the church. It refers to faith and religious experiences of the believers but only insofar as they are related to the people’s understanding of the self and the community. There were traces of how the believers relate themselves as cultural persons to the society as a community. Another presumption behind the themes was that sharing of faith experiences might happen through the daily conversations in the community life. These themes can corroborate the exploration of the community life among the believers in Java, since it is through the sharing of faith experiences that the people may see their community life differently. By considering faith in its broadest sense, this article wants to trace the possible cultural images that may shape the believers’ cultural preferences in living their life as church members. An emphasis will be put on the daily matters of the believers’ responses in order to collect the cultural images ‘from below’. Keywords :*Culture, *Images, *Religious community, *Sundanese, *Javanese, *church, *the believer's experience, *relationships, *local culture, *ecclesiology, *faith encounter, *cultural preference, *community life

Abstract

The article seeks to elicit some current tendencies that have made science, philosophy and religion in the third millennium change their self-perception, hence a paradigm shift. The hermeneutic point of view, the bias of gender, the negative impacts, the critique of the ideological presupposition behind each field, along with their respective internal evolution, have all put science, philosophy and religion into a redefinition and recontextualization. By now science has recognized the limits of its own logic and language, and seems to see the possibility of different kinds of ‘logic’ used by other types of knowledge. Philosophy, after Heideggerian phenomenology, has seemed to lose the possibility of creating an ‘all encompassing’ system of thought, and instead has to be more modest in simply identifying hermeneutically various modes of knowledge and their interconnection with pre-reflective modes of being, as well as in uncovering the root of today’s problems of life and humanity. As for religion, to revitalize itself today it has to shift its basic orientation, from doctrine and its propositional truth-claim to the complexity of religious experience, from ‘what one believes’ to ‘what one does’. Keywords :*Flux, *Web, *Relasional, *Ideologis, *Logika, *Lebenswelt, *hermeneutik, *narasi besar, *pra-reflektif, *doktrin, *pengalaman, *religion without religion

Abstract

Mystagogy was developed within early Christian communities, particularly with regard to the Sacraments of Christian Initiation. The idea of mystagogy was conceived in patristic time during the fourth and fifth centuries. Through the homilies and catechetical teachings, the church fathers described mystagogy as part of catecheses for candidates and neophytes before and after Easter. In this article, the idea of mystagogy is reconsidered through its understandings from the Greco-Roman world to early Christianity up to the context surrounding the church of today, mainly in the context of Sacraments of Initiation for adult. How mystagogy works in Christian liturgical teachings on Initiation will be analysed and its role in the liturgical context of the church will be refreshed. The revival of mystagogy has been initiated by the Vatican II when theology, catechesis and culture were put into dialogue. This move brings us further to see mystagogy as a personal and communal formation of a Christian.Keywords :*mystagogy, *mystagogue, *myste, *catechesis, *baptism, *church, *initiation, *sacrament, *cult, *rite of passage, *mystery, *christian community, *faith, *spiritual theology, *Vatican II, *liturgy, *revival.
