Abstract

This paper aims to examine the dynamics of diplomatic relations between Indonesia and China from the post-1965 confrontation period to the reconciliation process in 1990. Initially, relations between the two countries deteriorated after the G30S/PKI incident, in which Indonesia accused China of being involved in a coup attempt. As a result, in 1967, Indonesia froze diplomatic relations with China. During the New Order era, relations between the two countries remained frozen, marked by suspicion of the spread of communism. However, political and economic changes in both countries encouraged efforts to restore relations. In the late 1980s, with a bilateral diplomatic approach and encouragement of economic cooperation, Indonesia and China began to reopen communication channels, culminating in the normalization of relations in 1990. This process was continued with the strengthening of strategic partnerships, especially in the fields of trade and economy. In conclusion, the Indonesia-China relationship shows that the dynamics of international politics are greatly influenced by domestic and global factors, and bilateral diplomacy can be an important tool to end tensions and build mutually beneficial cooperation.

Abstract

This article aims to critically examine the implementation of association politics in the field of education during the Dutch colonial period and its impact on Indonesian society, especially in shaping the social structure and mindset of the educated generation. By tracing the basic concept of association politics as a strategy of power wrapped in a narrative of cooperation and modernization, this article shows that colonial education was not a neutral means to educate the nation, but rather a hegemonic tool that subtly created a native elite loyal to the colonial government. Although this system was initially intended to strengthen Dutch domination, paradoxically, it also opened up space for the growth of national awareness and a spirit of resistance among the educated. Therefore, this article concludes that association politics in education reflects the ambivalence of colonialism which on the one hand oppresses and limits, but on the other hand unknowingly also provides the seeds of liberation that later became the foundation of the Indonesian independence struggle.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the Komering Tribe community in South Sumatra in giving adok or title as a form of Islamic cultural acculturation. The honorary title system known as the adok tradition is attached to a person's social identity based on descent, status, and role in the traditional community. After that, Islamic teachings entered the structure and symbols of this tradition, creating a blend of values ​​between Islamic teachings and local customs. This study uses ethnographic methodology and a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation research in the South OKU area. The results of the study indicate that the acculturation of Islamic culture is seen in the embedding of titles containing Arabic elements, the use of Islamic prayers in customary processes, and changes in values ​​that emphasize morality and honor based on Islamic teachings. The tradition of giving adok is a way to maintain local cultural identity and harmonize customs and religion in the Komering community.

Abstract

Tobacco plantations in Jember began before 1850 along with other areas in the Dutch East Indies that planted commodities such as coffee, sugar cane, rubber, and indigo. In line with the changing politics and economy in the Netherlands, it provided opportunities for private companies to open businesses related to plantations. At that time, the tobacco plantation business grew rapidly thanks to the agrarian law of 1870 where the Dutch gave permission to entrepreneurs to manage land for 75 years. The commodities chosen at that time were commodities that had the potential for high selling value in the international market. Tobacco, which is the ingredient for making cigars, became a leading product from the Deli region in North Sumatra, Klaten in Central Java, and Besuki in East Java. The very profitable tobacco export process encouraged the growth of this industry and had a significant impact on economic growth in the area. In the 1800s, smoking cigars was a common habit, while cigarettes were still relatively rare at that time. A famous poem entitled "The Betrothed" by Rudyard Kipling was written in the early 20th century. Many people were made laborers in cigar factories before the mechanical manufacturing process became commonplace, because this industry was so vital. The history of cigars in Indonesia has a long journey. It began with the predecessor of a tobacco plantation named Deli Maatschappij in Deli, North Sumatra in 1869 which dominated the market for cigar wrappers or "wrappers". The method used in this study is a historical research method that includes several stages, namely Heuristics, which is the initial step in collecting data or historical sources, criticism, the second stage to test the validity of sources using external and internal criticism, interpretation, the third stage to give meaning to the sources that have been collected, Historiography, the last stage that focuses on writing history.

Abstract

During the reign of Pakubuwono X (1893–1939), the Bengawan Solo River was an important trade route connecting the interior with the north coast of Java. This study investigates the strategic role of this river in the trade and transportation activities of Javanese society and the impact of colonial rule on trade dynamics along its course. This study finds that the Bengawan Solo had high economic value because it delivered agricultural commodities, forest products, and local crafts to major ports such as Gresik. This is achieved through the application of a qualitative approach and analysis of primary and secondary sources. In addition, it is found that the river's function as an important route for the transportation of goods was strengthened by the development of river infrastructure such as the Demangan sluice gate. The river remained the center of regional trade during that time, although land transportation such as railways began to develop. Local and colonial economic networks were strengthened by trade through river ports, land and air transportation, and the role of cities such as Surakarta and Ngawi. To understand how Javanese trade was in the early 20th century, revitalizing local historical narratives is essential.

Abstract

This article discusses the diplomatic relations between Indonesia and Saudi Arabia concerning the placement of Indonesian Migrant Workers (TKI) during the period from 1975 to 1986. The main objective of this paper is to analyze Indonesia's diplomatic policies and strategies in managing and protecting the presence of TKI in Saudi Arabia. During this period, Saudi Arabia became one of the primary destinations for Indonesian migrant workers, particularly in the domestic sector, which had a high demand for affordable and skilled labor. Indonesian diplomacy at the time focused on establishing bilateral cooperation through various agreements that regulated placement systems, labor rights, and legal protection efforts for TKI. Although these agreements were not as comprehensive as modern ones, they laid an essential foundation for managing labor relations between the two countries. However, several challenges persisted in practice, such as weak oversight of recruitment agencies, insufficient legal protection systems, and limited pre-departure education for prospective workers. These conditions made many TKI vulnerable to exploitation, abuse, and human rights violations. This study shows that Indonesian diplomacy played a significant role in shaping a more equitable cooperation framework with Saudi Arabia to enhance the protection of TKI. Although not yet perfect, these diplomatic efforts paved the way for improved management of migrant labor placement. Moving forward, strengthening the legal system, improving education, and enhancing the role of diplomatic missions abroad are key to ensuring the welfare and rights of Indonesian migrant workers in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

The policies implemented by Herman Willem Daendels and Thomas Stamford Raffles during the colonial period in the Archipelago had a significant impact on social change. Daendels was known for his infrastructure projects, particularly the construction of the Great Post Road, which accelerated mobility and colonial control but also led to labor exploitation. Meanwhile, Raffles introduced the land rent system, altering land ownership patterns and the agrarian economy, though its implementation faced social challenges. These policies not only influenced the colonial period but also shaped Indonesia’s socio-economic dynamics and governance in the modern era. The administrative reforms introduced by both figures laid the foundation for the bureaucratic system still in use today. This article examines how Daendels’ and Raffles’ policies shaped the social structures of the Archipelago and left a lasting legacy that remains relevant to contemporary Indonesian development policies. Using a historical-critical approach and literature analysis, this study explores the relevance of colonial legacies in Indonesia’s socio-political dynamics while providing a new perspective on the long-term relationship between colonial policies and social transformation.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the face of Indonesian military repression during the New Order era through the events of Indonesia's annexation of East Timor in 1975 and the Santa Cruz Tragedy in 1991. The research method adopts historical methods through the stages of heuristics (source collection), source criticism, interpretation, and historiography (historical writing). The annexation of East Timor created tensions between the Indonesian government and the East Timorese people, who wanted independence. The Santa Cruz Tragedy marked a turning point in Timor-Leste's independence struggle, demonstrating the Indonesian military's brutality against civilians who were peacefully demonstrating. Although Indonesia attempted to cover the event, the Santa Cruz Tragedy and media footage paved the way for Timor-Leste's independence on May 20, 2002. This event also underscored the importance of protecting human rights and the role of the media in uncovering the truth, and served as an important lesson for preventing similar violations in the future.
