Abstract

Carok, a traditional honour-based practice of violence in Madura, Indonesia, is often misunderstood as mere physical aggression, despite its embedded spiritual dimensions, including rituals, mystical beliefs, and sacred symbolism. This study aims to elaborate on the spiritual meaning of carok behavior among Madurese people from a transpersonal psychology perspective. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 informants, including former perpetrators, blaters, religious leaders, traditional leaders, and family members. The phenomenological analysis used to interpret subjective experiences about the spiritual dimension in carok behavior. The findings indicate that spirituality is expressed through pre-carok rituals (prayer, fasting, blessing-seeking), mystical beliefs in the sacred sickle (celurit), and the conceptualisation of death as a spiritual victory rather than a defeat, demonstrating the synthesis of physical action with transcendent consciousness. This study redefines carok as a transpersonal phenomenon that merges bodily action with spiritual consciousness, contesting reductionist interpretations and enhancing indigenous psychological frameworks.

Abstract

This article examines comparatively how the religious beliefs, communal structures, and political environments of the Bahai, Druze, and Yazidi communities have shaped their distinctive strategies of survival in the Middle East. The study is important because existing scholarship has largely treated religious identity, persecution, and minority adaptation as separate issues, without adequately explaining how these dimensions interact in producing different survival trajectories. This research employs a qualitative comparative design with a document-based method, relying on secondary sources such as scholarly books, journal articles, and historical analyses. The data were analysed through qualitative content analysis and cross-case comparison. The findings show that the three communities developed different configurations of belief and communal organisation that shaped distinct forms of survival strategy. Takiyya functioned as a limited form of concealment, the Druze developed positive neutrality grounded in territorial concentration and self-help defense, the Yazidis embodied a more vulnerable form of negative neutrality shaped by mixed settlement and limited defensive capacity, and the Bahais developed a more adaptive form of negative neutrality expressed through political quietism, migration, and transnational relocation. These findings imply that the survival of tiny religious minorities should not be understood through theology alone, but through the interaction between religious worldview, communal capacity, and political vulnerability. The originality of this study lies in its comparative framework, which integrates faith, communal structure, and political context into a single analytical model for explaining minority survival in the Middle East.
Legitimacy and De-Coincidence: What May Democracy Rightfully Expect From Theology? Légitimité et dé-coïncidence : ce que la démocratie est en droit d’attendre de la théologie? Bernard Bourdin

Abstract

Legitimacy is a modern concept that was unknown in the same form to ancient and medieval political thought. It gained prominence in debates over royal legitimacy during the wars of religion and reappeared in nineteenth-century dynastic legitimism. This history has led legitimacy to be treated either as a heteronomous foundation opposed to modern political autonomy or as a loose term for contesting legally constituted power. This critical-philosophical essay reformulates legitimacy through François Jullien’s concept of dé-coïncidence (de-coincidence). Through conceptual reconstruction and a genealogical reading of the relationship between religion, theology, law and politics, it distinguishes political religion which fuses the religious and the political from a theology of the political, which sustains a critical distance between them. The discussion shows that democracy cannot be reduced to legality, whilst legitimacy must not become a religious norm placed above the law. Legitimacy should operate as de-coincidence, ‘fissuring’ the tendency of law, social norms, conscience and religious normativity to close in upon themselves. Theology thereby gains public credibility not as a rival source of sovereignty but as a critical rationality connecting the primacy of conscience with society’s capacity for collective self-determination. The essay’s originality lies in arguing that democratic autonomy can be sustained only through the non-possession of power: power must be exercised and decisions must be made, yet power cannot be owned absolutely by the state, the majority, the individual or religion.
