Abstract

This paper is focused on discussing the gate that acts as a monument in building and transforming the collective identity of the community. So that looking at the meaning function of the gate, this paper aims to link the study of the meaning of the gate and the form of memorialization of the history attached to the gate. Like the Jatirejo Village boundary gate, for example, the gate is not only a boundary of power, but also carries a memory that will continue to be carried. The analysis obtained that the Jatirejo village gate displays three important elements, namely First, the symbol of Pancasila and the logo of the Regional Government regarding the cultivation of nationalist patriotism and territorial affirmation as a regional existence. Second, the writing of a Javanese slogan about the values of wisdom in life, so the meaning of Jer Basuki Mawa Beya and the writing Sepi Ing Pamrih Rame Ing Gawe, a Javanese proverb that indirectly teaches Javanese people to work hard without excessive expectations. Third, there are pictures of cassava, rice and corn, which illustrate the local commodities of farmers in Jatirejo Village, where the majority of people work as farmers. Thus, the existence of the gate has walked a long round, from the present to the past and back again, while illustrating the interpedence of various events and historical roles played by the people of Jatirejo Village

Abstract

This study examines the role of homeless people in the Indonesian Independence Revolution in Semarang City in the period 1945–1950. The main focus of the study includes the socio-economic background of the emergence of homeless people, their contribution in the physical struggle against the Japanese and Dutch troops, and their involvement in struggle organizations such as Laskar Kere and Laskar Jembel. Using historical research methods—including heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography—this study highlights how homeless people, despite being socially marginalized, actively participated as fighters and spies in the struggle for independence. The study also reveals the passive side of some homeless people who remained mired in poverty and were not involved in the revolution. The findings show that homeless people have a complex role, both as active actors in the revolution and as symbols of the social impact of war and colonialism. This study enriches the understanding of urban social dynamics in the history of the nation's struggle.

Abstract

This article examines the history and development of Colloquial Arabic (ʿĀmmiyya) usage and the role of Islamic education within the Diponegoro Islamic Education Foundation (YPID) in Pasar Kliwon, Surakarta. Known as the “Arab Quarter,” this area has long served as a site of interaction between the Arab-Hadrami community and Javanese society. Using historical and sociolinguistic approaches, the study shows how language and education function as two key media for building social integration and cultural identity from 1966 through the 2020s. The findings indicate that the everyday use of ʿAmmiyya among Surakarta’s Arab community has shifted in tandem with the community’s growing integration with local society. At the same time, Islamic educational institutions such as YPID have played a strategic role as multicultural bridges, sustaining cultural identity while fostering social harmony within a diverse Muslim context.

Abstract

This article examines the coalitional architecture of the Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Party during 1952–1966 as a deliberate strategy to safeguard santri interests within the state, rather than a mere act of accommodation or resistance to the regime. Beginning with the 1952 Palembang Congress—when NU withdrew from Masyumi and established its own political party—this study maps two axes of coalition: the horizontal (cross-party and cross-ideological alliances, from the 1950s cabinets to limited accommodation within the Nasakom scheme) and the vertical (the governance of the Syuriah–Tanfidziyah structure and autonomous bodies that mediated between syar‘iyyah rationality and siyasiyyah calculation). Employing a historical–qualitative approach (heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, historiography) complemented by light quantitative mapping (coalition timelines, cabinet participation frequency, distribution of political offices), the data are drawn from congress proceedings, organizational decrees, elite speeches and memoirs, contemporary press archives, and selected interviews. The key findings reveal that (1) religious legitimacy grounded in fiqh siyasah and the doctrine of waliyyul amri ad-daruri bisy-syaukah served as the normative foundation of NU’s coalition; (2) the strategic use of executive–legislative positions—especially the Ministry of Religious Affairs—converted pesantren cultural authority into policy leverage; and (3) internal correction mechanisms between senior ulama and younger elites functioned as an ideological safeguard, particularly amid rising tensions with the PKI before and after 1965. The study’s contribution lies in conceptualizing a model of “coalitional architecture” that integrates structure–process–discourse as an analytical lens to interpret the Islam–state relationship at the end of the Sukarno era, and to explain why NU’s political choices appeared ambivalent yet consistently aimed to preserve policy access while minimizing political costs for the pesantren base.

Abstract

Research on the Megalithic Site of Pekauman Village in Bondowoso was motivated by the lack of a definitive chronology regarding the development of megalithic traditions in the region, despite the abundance and diversity of its relics. The range of findings indicating the continuity of the tradition from the 6th to the 16th century AD raises important questions about cultural continuity, changes in the function of artifacts, and the relationship between the communities that supported this tradition and regional historical dynamics, including the influence of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. Previous studies have focused more on the inventory of artifacts, so research is needed that is capable of reconstructing the distribution patterns, developmental forms, and functions of the remains in a more comprehensive manner. The method used is a historical research method that includes heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. This process involves the collection of archaeological data, historical documents, and spatial context analysis to interpret changes in the function of artifacts such as sarcophagi, dolmens, kenong stones, menhirs, and terraced punden. This approach allows for the reconstruction of the development of the megalithic tradition through three major phases: the early phase (6th–8th centuries), the middle phase (9th–13th centuries), and the final phase (14th–16th centuries AD), each of which shows social and religious transformations as well as the spatial arrangement of the supporting communities. The results of the study show that the megalithic remains in Pekauman have a tendency to cluster near water sources and residential areas, and serve a dual function—both as a means of ancestor worship and as a social and agrarian marker. This analysis also confirms the continuity of the megalithic tradition, which has survived through various cultural periods, despite a decline in artifact production in the final phase. In addition, the relocation of some artifacts to the Megalithic Information Center (PIM) further strengthens our understanding of the historical distribution density of this site. In conclusion, this study provides a clearer chronological and functional picture of the development of the megalithic tradition in Pekauman, while also confirming the village's position as one of the important centers of megalithic culture in East Java. These findings not only enrich regional archaeological understanding, but also provide an important basis for the preservation and further study of prehistoric cultural continuity.

Abstract

Indonesia is an archipelagic nation with a coastline spanning over 81,000 km. Along this coastline reside communities earning their livelihoods as fishermen, including those in Argopeni Village, Kebumen Regency. The geographical environment of Argopeni Village consists of limestone mountains jutting into the Indian Ocean in the western part of Kebumen Regency. The lives of Argopeni fishermen, generally characterized by economic hardship, are lived with simplicity and grounded in local values, relying on trust and honesty as their capital. To sustain their livelihoods, the fishermen of Pedalen Beach in Argopeni Village firmly uphold traditions related to their environment, particularly those concerning the myth of Nyai Roro Kidul. These traditions include observing sacred fishing days, performing sea offering ceremonies (sedekah laut) and rituals, and strictly avoiding the taboos associated with Nyai Roro Kidul. By adhering to these traditions, the fishermen maintain a harmonious life. Furthermore, to align their daily needs with their working environment, the fishermen have adapted to the marine conditions. Through this adaptation, they possess the skills and wisdom necessary for maritime activities, given the high risks associated with fishing at sea. Their capabilities include identifying fishing seasons, locating fish aggregations, and assessing sea conditions before setting sail.
