Abstract

This study comprehensively evaluates de-radicalisation and counter-radicalism programs administered by the provincial branches of PW Fatayat NU in West Java and East Java, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative field research methodology, the study integrates data from document analysis, participant observation, semi-structured interviews with key organisational leaders and partners, and focus group discussions with diverse stakeholders. The analysis is framed by Kinsley’s seven organisational effectiveness dimensions—structure, strategy, systems, skills, style, staff, and shared values—offering a multidimensional perspective on program implementation and outcomes. Results reveal that while both provincial branches have established foundational organisational structures and strategic orientations conducive to program delivery, significant differences exist in system utilisation, professional capacity, and advocacy effectiveness. The West Java branch is characterised by strong interdepartmental coordination, effective communication channels, and well-defined governance structures. In contrast, the East Java branch faces challenges with strategic impact and resource mobilisation. Both branches demonstrate active stakeholder engagement through knowledge sharing, social reintegration, and policy advocacy. The study identifies critical constraints, including limited professional expertise, inconsistent communication practices, and insufficient collaborative networks, which impede optimal program performance. This research contributes to the growing scholarship on countering violent extremism (CVE) by foregrounding the importance of professional organizational management and inclusive multistakeholder engagement. It further underscores the imperative of gender-sensitive approaches and continuous capacity development to enhance program sustainability. These findings offer actionable insights for policymakers, civil society organisations, and government agencies committed to strengthening the efficacy and resilience of counter-radicalism interventions in complex socio-political environments.

Abstract

This study investigates the experiences of niqab-wearing female students at the State Islamic Institute of Kendari (Institut Agama Islam Negeri – IAIN Kendari), the sole public Islamic higher education institution in Southeast Sulawesi, as they navigate academic life amid prevailing social stigma and the absence of institutional policies regarding niqab usage. The niqab is frequently associated with stereotypes of exclusivity and extremism, and is often perceived as a barrier to social interaction and academic participation. Utilising a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and focus group discussions involving 15 female students who wear the niqab. The findings indicate that the lack of formal regulations concerning the use of the niqab generates ambiguity regarding institutional standards and student behavior. Despite these challenges, participants demonstrate resilience through adaptive strategies, such as using social media platforms for self-expression and solidarity. They also display emotional maturity in managing stigma while remaining active in academic and extracurricular activities. Drawing on Self-Presentation Theory and Social Adjustment Theory, the study reveals that niqab-wearing students employ friendliness, openness, humour, and academic achievement to counter negative perceptions. Social media further serves as a vital space for articulating perspectives and fostering community. This research highlights the need for inclusive policies in Islamic higher education and contributes to broader discussions on religious diversity, gender, and inclusivity within multicultural academic settings in Eastern Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the challenges in implementing the Penta helix model to counter radicalism and terrorism in Surabaya, Indonesia. Given Surabaya's strategic importance and vulnerability to extremism, the research seeks to assess how collaboration among government, academia, media, civil society, and the private sector functions within this framework. Employing a descriptive-qualitative approach, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, including law enforcement, religious leaders, civil society, and media representatives, supplemented by document analysis. The findings indicate that while the Penta helix strategy has been partially operationalised, several challenges remain. These include minimal involvement of the business sector, fragmented stakeholder coordination, budgetary limitations, and a notable absence of gender mainstreaming despite the involvement of women in previous terrorist acts. These limitations reduce the model’s effectiveness in preventing and countering violent extremism. The study highlights the need to strengthen inter-sectoral collaboration by fully implementing the National Action Plan (RAN PE), institutionalising business sector contributions through CSR, and incorporating gender perspectives into local counter-terrorism policies. This research contributes to the discourse on collaborative governance in extremism prevention by offering a localised analysis of the Penta helix model. Its originality lies in identifying gender mainstreaming and private sector gaps as underexplored barriers, thereby extending existing knowledge on policy implementation at the municipal level.

Abstract

This article explores the social perception of widows from an Islamic perspective, the various types of relationships between widows and their ex-affines, and the factors shaping these relationships among Sundanese Muslims in rural West Java. Employing a qualitative research design with a case study approach, the study engaged religious leaders and six widows who had diverse experiences with their ex-affinal kin. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and non-participant observations. The findings reveal that social perceptions of widows, as informed by Islamic teachings, are rooted in Qur’anic references; however, these teachings are not consistently reflected in actual practices within Cikembang Village. Instead, the findings align with existing literature on Muslim widows in other Southeast Asian contexts. The study identified three types of the widow–ex-affinal relationships: (1) positive—characterised by continued closeness, such as becoming friends or being regarded as a daughter; (2) negative—marked by hostility or estrangement, such as being treated as a hostile neighbour or stranger; and (3) neutral—defined by a distanced yet peaceful coexistence, such as simply being neighbours. Several factors influenced these relationship dynamics: (1) the nature of the previous personal bond, (2) the widow's age and adherence to cultural and religious principles, and (3) the birthplace of the deceased husband and the current residence of the in-laws. The classification of these relationships largely depended on the widow's post-marital situation and her interpretation of Islamic teachings. Overall, the findings offer valuable insights for developing culturally sensitive support systems for Muslim widows and contribute original perspectives to kinship studies in Southeast Asian anthropology. Specifically, this research sheds light on widow–ex-affinal relations within bilateral kinship systems—a context that remains underexplored in Indonesian Muslim communities.

Abstract

Globalisation and modernisation are often perceived as threats to preserving cultural traditions. This study explores how the Jalawastu community in Brebes, Central Java, Indonesia, maintains its cultural identity through practising and transmitting oral traditions. Despite exposure to external influences—including interpersonal interactions and digital communication technologies—the Jalawastu people demonstrate a dynamic between adaptation and cultural continuity. Their exposure to the outside world, facilitated by interpersonal interactions and communication technologies, has had significant implications for the continuity and transformation of their oral traditions. Using a qualitative research design, data were gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis draws on oral tradition and social change theories, particularly Ogburn’s (1922) and Soekanto’s (2012) works. The findings reveal a complex interplay between cultural preservation and transformation. Oral traditions are being preserved through their integration into cultural tourism, while shifts occur due to increased interaction with outsiders, especially through employment and intermarriage. These changes have prompted younger generations to leave the village, often due to their inability to conform to traditional norms. The study offers valuable insights for cultural policy, community development, and heritage education programs, particularly in rural and indigenous settings facing similar challenges.

Abstract

This article investigates the impact of religion on public administration in Nigeria, with a particular focus on how religious beliefs and affiliations inform policymaking processes, bureaucratic conduct, and levels of public trust. Employing a mixed-methods research design, the study integrates qualitative data from interviews and focus group discussions with quantitative survey analysis. The findings demonstrate that religious affiliation significantly shapes public perceptions of policy initiatives and trust in governmental institutions. Religious leaders are shown to play a pivotal role in the policy arena, frequently acting as intermediaries or gatekeepers between state actors and diverse societal constituencies. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that public trust is positively associated with religious identity, occupational status within the public sector, and age, while gender appears to exert negligible influence. By synthesising empirical evidence with theoretical perspectives on religious pluralism, this research elucidates the dual function of religion as both a foundation for ethical governance and a potential vector for bias. The study concludes by advocating for inclusive policy frameworks, enhanced interfaith dialogue, and the promotion of ethical training among public officials as strategies to advance equitable governance in Nigeria.

Abstract

Indonesia's complex religious landscape presents potential and persistent challenges in cultivating interfaith harmony, particularly in local contexts where theological divergence and structural segregation exacerbate communal divisions. This study examines the intentional construction of interreligious harmony in Saren Village, Bali, by analysing culturally embedded strategies employed by Muslim and Hindu communities. The research adopts a phenomenological approach, incorporating in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. It is theoretically grounded in Émile Durkheim's (1912) theory of social integration and Diana Eck's (2001) concept of religious pluralism. Durkheim highlights the role of shared rituals in generating collective solidarity and a cohesive moral order. At the same time, Eck emphasises active and equal participation across religious traditions as essential for a pluralist society. The findings demonstrate that traditional practices—such as Subak (a cooperative irrigation system), Bale Banjar (a local consensus forum), and Burdah (a Muslim devotional performance incorporated into Hindu ceremonial life)—serve as functional mechanisms for fostering interreligious cooperation, ritual synergy, and hybrid identity formation. Despite enduring challenges such as spatial segregation, cultural dominance, and digital polarisation, the Saren community sustains interfaith harmony through youth engagement, inclusive ritual adaptations, and grassroots digital literacy initiatives. Unlike many Balinese localities that reinforce Hindu cultural hegemony, Saren exemplifies a reciprocal model in which Muslim contributions, particularly the Burdah, are ritually embedded within dominant Hindu frameworks. This two-way assimilation of ritual practice marks a notable departure from conventional patterns of religious accommodation. Beyond applying Durkheim and Eck, this study contributes a contextual model of interfaith harmony grounded in reciprocal ritual integration. It underscores the value of local religious practices as generative sources for interreligious coexistence in plural societies.

Abstract

Javanese gamelan, a traditional musical ensemble deeply embedded in Javanese culture, serves as a profound symbol of harmony and spiritual values, reflecting principles such as balance, restraint, and tolerance. Historically integral to religious and ceremonial contexts, gamelan embodies a sacred medium through which the Javanese engage with the Divine, aligning with Mircea Eliade’s concept of hierophany—the manifestation of the sacred in the profane world. Despite its rich cultural and philosophical significance, contemporary shifts have led to a decline in gamelan’s popularity and its associated values, impacting cultural practices including the inculturation process within the Catholic Church among Javanese communities. This qualitative study, based on interviews, observations, and literature review, demonstrates that gamelan transcends mere musical function, offering a theological and cultural framework that can enhance Catholic liturgical music. Integrating gamelan into worship not only enriches faith expression but also fosters cultural identity and supports liturgical inculturation. The findings contribute to the discourse on cultural heritage preservation and religious adaptation by proposing a model that harmonises local artistic traditions with Christian worship, encouraging further interdisciplinary research and practical application.

Abstract

Climate change has emerged as a major challenge for coastal communities in Pekalongan. This study emphasizes that coastal women are not merely victims of climate change, but also key actors in fostering ecological awareness and community resilience. The research aims to explore the strategic roles of women in responding to climate change through a faith-based Green Deen and community-centered approach. This qualitative study employs a Participatory Action Research (PAR) framework, engaging coastal women as active agents in formulating and implementing climate adaptation strategies. The findings reveal that coastal women go beyond their domestic roles to become agents of ecological transformation. They actively contribute to climate adaptation through tangible actions such as environmental conservation, land use initiatives, local tradition revitalization, and spiritual reinforcement. The concept of Green Deen serves as both an ethical and practical foundation, bridging faith, action, and environmental sustainability. These findings also highlight the importance of integrating local knowledge, religious values, and participatory approaches in the development of climate adaptation policies in coastal areas.
