Abstract

Children’s rights are fundamental in a country. Children are the future generation of a country. They have rights in civil law field. The examples of such rights are the right to have family name, the right to get alimony, and the right to get inheritance from the parents. Indonesian Law Number 1 of 1974 regarding Marriage (Marriage Law) distinguishes the civil rights of legitimate and illegitimate children. In 2010, the Indonesian Constitutional Court produced a decision which became a controversial decision because it was deemed to ‘legalize’ illegitimate child to have the same rights as legitimate child. The reason behind such decision is the human rights which should apply nondiscriminative principle. Some parties disagree with the reasoning behind this decision. They consider the decision unjust and that it violates social and religious norms in giving illegitimate and legitimate children the same rights in spite of the status difference. The author will discuss children’s civil rights based on civil law, human rights, and justice principle in Indonesia.

Abstract

Defining what an artwork is has been a recurrent theme in aesthetics, or to be more specific, in the philosophy of art. Yet this is proven to be no simple matter. Thus finding the definition of art has proven to be an elusive undertaking as works of art have always kept on eluding one definition after another. A strong definition might have proven to be illusory. An analytic aesthetician, Noël Carroll has undertaken a complex, if not ambitious, project opting to refute this conundrum in aesthetics by proposing another perspective that stems not from metaphysics but an epistemological one. He managed to show analytically that the epistemological approach is far less problematic and even offers a string of advantages at the praxis level. Carroll completed his proposal by revising two of the most powerful definition of art, that is, the Kantian aesthetic experience and the Levinsonian historical definition of art in those he emancipated the most essential foundation disinterestedness coined by Immanuel Kant, and set the modified definition in a trail of historical correctness. The mix between these two strong elements has amalgamated in a new breed proposed by Carroll in that he labels it historical narrative. This, for Carroll, is a better option over endless disputes over the speculated essence of an artwork and its criticism.

Abstract

The author introduces a way of theologising by way of a particular paradigm, that is, ‘freedom’ paradigm. From the philosophical viewpoint this way of thinking according to the paradigm is chosen with the consideration that it has become one of the central themes in modern thought, is not under the level of reflection reached by the modern thought, and conforms the requirement of reason to borderlessly question the fundamental cause of everything. From the theological viewpoint, the choice for this paradigm has a consequence that ‘freedom’ becomes the reference, towards which theological reflection always directs itself. The author shows that ‘freedom’ paradigm brings the potential to be the reference in understanding and formulating Christian fundamental doctrines on many themes: on God and the reality of creation, humanity (theological anthropology), Jesus Christ (Christology), grace and sacraments, concepts of salvation (soteriology), history and its final meaning (eschatology), actual themes like human rights, freedom to have religion, et cetera.

Abstract

Metaphysically speaking, human being is a homo ritualis or a ritual being, and not simply because of the need for any ritual, but because of one’s ontological structure. At the same time, human is also a homo sapiens artisticus. One’s way of being and one’s mode of thinking is always artistic. One might also say that ritual is always artistic and art is always ritualistic. In this sense ritual and art are inseparable, for ritual and art are sui generis. Both exist in the area of human experience and are in touch with cognition, affection, knowledge, action, and enjoyment. Art and ritual are the hermeneutical site of meanings and values that simultaneously become the same place to find the answers. Imagined within the realness of life, art and ritual are a field of meanings. When human beings slip away from their humanity, art and ritual become the medium to restore it. Not only can art and ritual create a balance between the physical and the mental aspects, between the body and the soul that have been dehumanised, they also can exalt human beings towards the divine level as the culmination of the humanisation process.

Abstract

Human’s mind and behaviour have been influenced by the understanding of who human beings are. Realising identity on the level of knowledge might have revealed human’s exclusive, dominant, and alienating nature. Nature is seen as an object of a pragmatic approach for the sake of human’s development. Nature is not so much seen as something meaningful as a necessity to fulfill the needs of the human being. The field of knowledge and discourse is always limited in itself and human’s relationship with the nature cannot merely accommodated by ideas and concepts. Human’s relationship with nature needs to be built with love. Love is the self’s involvement as a whole to participate in the life of the other, that is, through the real and constructive encounters of human and nature that preserve the beautiful existence of both. One of the fusions between human and nature is in the area of aesthetics, and in this article, of theological aesthetics. While knowledge and concept could not be imposed on the relation between human and nature, humans might need a different approach in the area of experience. Human experience in relation to nature is not always linear, but continuously invites humans to explore the aesthetic and theological territories, in order to offer meanings so that they can go beyond their identity or exclusivity in knowledge and concept. This balance may improve human’s relationships with the nature.
