Uncovering the Formula of Classical Javanese Literary Works: Structural Analysis of Power, Religion, and Subaltern Resistance
Get PDFClassical Javanese literature is traditionally defined by its profound synonymy with religious authority and the royal court (power), a duality long observed but structurally underexplained. This research utilizes a qualitative descriptive method, synthesizing existing studies of canonical texts—including Negarakertagama, Pararaton, Arjuna Wiwaha, and Sutasoma—to reveal the tripartite sociological formula determining literary inception. The analysis establishes that classical literature was overwhelmingly produced by eloquent individuals monopolizing broad knowledge, typically religious leaders, kings, and royal scribes. This structural control resulted from three interlocking factors: 1) Caste, wherein literacy and intellectual production were restricted primarily to Brahmins and Kshatriyas; 2) Knowledge, disseminated through the elite Kadewaguruan education system, which prioritized religious ethics before statecraft, functioning as an ideological apparatus to generate loyal state officials and authorized literary works; and 3) Culture, which utilized mythical elements (Smita) to glorify kings as divine incarnations, thereby legitimizing political narratives. The overarching function of this literature was to perpetuate power and spread sanctioned religious doctrine. While groups outside the palace provided resistance, notably through accessible oral literature and written counter-narratives like Serat Gatoloco, this opposition often failed to fundamentally displace the dominant hegemony. Drawing on Gayatri Spivak’s postcolonial perspective, the findings demonstrate that while resistance existed, the systemic control over authorship, knowledge, and dissemination ensured the literary output remained fundamentally focused on centralized religious and political control. This research clarifies that the enduring characteristics of Javanese classical texts are directly rooted in the political and educational policies of the past
Mapping the Intellectual Landscape of Islamic Modernity: A Bibliometric and Critical Discourse Analysis of Global Scholarship
Get PDFThis research aims to explore the state of the art of Islamic modernity research using a VOSviewer bibliometric study. The research draws on the 5-year (2020-2025) SCOPUS database, utilizing the keyword "Islamic Modernity." The results were analyzed descriptively and put into a visualization. In each criterion, when possible, regional interpretations are presented to support further analysis. Afterwards, a cross-sectional critical discourse analysis is conducted heuristically. The findings indicate that the number of publications on "Islamic modernity" increases significantly from 2023 to 2024, and this trend continues into 2025. It also suggests that Islamic modernity discourse falls into two poles of intellectual motives: one, more epistemological in the form of theory construction, and the other, more political, as it pays more attention to political issues by scrutinizing the internal dynamics of Islamic society through a political interpretation. Thus, future research could contribute to critiquing the Eurocentric paradigm and foster epistemic justice in the global theory of knowledge
Sufi Ethics for the Digital Age: Developing Virtual Awareness, Moral Conduct, and Self-Control in Online Engagement
Get PDFTechnology has become an inseparable part of human life, exerting a significant influence on patterns of living and social behavior. Social media often gives rise to various ethical and moral concerns, including a decline in self-awareness, weakened self-control, and erosion of moral values. Sufism and technology can be integrated to maintain a balance between digital advancement and the spiritual depth of human beings. This article examines the implementation of Sufi teachings in the digital era, focusing on three key aspects: the development of virtual awareness, ethical conduct in digital engagement, and the cultivation of self-control. The study employs a literature-based approach, utilizing descriptive-analytical analysis and drawing on primary and secondary sources, including classical Sufi texts, contemporary literature on digital ethics, and scholarly articles. Its epistemological position is prescriptive, as it not only describes ethical phenomena in the digital sphere but also formulates normative principles based on Sufi teachings to reinforce digital ethics.The findings indicate that Sufism offers a value-based foundation for addressing digital challenges. Virtual awareness can be cultivated through the practices of dhikr, muhasabah, and muraqabah, which position technology as a medium for drawing closer to God. Digital ethics from a Sufi perspective emphasizes the importance of politeness, honesty, and a focus on the public good in every online interaction. Meanwhile, self-control can be exercised through disciplined use of technology, avoidance of negative content, and restraint from excessive digital desires. The implementation of Sufism in the digital era can serve as an effective strategy for maintaining equilibrium between technological utilization and spiritual needs, while simultaneously contributing to the development of a morally refined society.
Disaster Communication and Institutional Coordination in Urban Flood Management: A Case Study of Medan City
Get PDFFlooding in Medan City has had extensive social, economic, and psychological impacts on local communities, affecting tens of thousands of residents through damage to property, infrastructure loss, and prolonged trauma. These recurrent floods are largely attributable to Medan’s geographical characteristics, particularly the presence of numerous active rivers that increase hydrometeorological vulnerability. Consequently, residents are required to coexist with disaster risks, placing the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) at the forefront of flood response and mitigation efforts. This study aims to examine BPBD Medan City’s flood management strategies, its communication and coordination practices during disaster response, and the key obstacles encountered in the disaster management process. Using a disaster communication perspective grounded in Haddow’s framework, this research focuses on five dimensions: audience focus, leadership commitment, situational awareness, the role of media, and disaster communication planning. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with nine key informants selected via purposive sampling, all of whom held strategic roles and had direct experience in flood disaster management. The data were analysed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, involving data reduction, thematic categorisation, interpretation, and verification. The findings reveal that BPBD Medan City continues to implement flood mitigation within a regional autonomy paradigm, resulting in the absence of a comprehensive and strategic approach to hydrometeorological flood management. Disaster coordination remains highly centralised, with strong sectoral egos persisting across institutions and creating significant coordination gaps. BPBD also faces structural constraints, inter-agency communication barriers, and complex community dynamics, including unresolved trauma among flood victims. This study concludes that effective disaster management in Medan City requires improvements in three key areas: systematic disaster communication planning, strengthened inter-institutional coordination, and enhanced citizen participation in disaster mitigation efforts
An Implementation Islamic Education Model to Build Tolerance and Prevent Radicalism at An Islamic Boarding School
Get PDFThis study is motivated by increasing reports of intolerance and radicalism that often involve individuals with religious educational backgrounds, even though Islamic teachings fundamentally reject all forms of violence and terrorism. Islamic Religious Education (PAI) is therefore expected to play a central role in shaping moderate, tolerant, and peace-loving attitudes among students, particularly within Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), which are known for their strong religious traditions and moral education. The aim of this study is to develop PAI teaching materials in Islamic boarding schools that emphasize tolerance values and the prevention of radicalism. The research was conducted at Al Istiqomah Boarding School, Sindangsari, Kutawaluya, Karawang, using a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study design. The main participants were students, teachers, and Kyai. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the values of tolerance at Al Istiqomah Boarding School are internalized through PAI learning, teachers’ exemplary conduct, and religious activities that foster respect, cooperation, and appreciation for diversity. The study concludes that pesantren have a strategic role in strengthening character education based on tolerance and preventing the spread of radical ideologies among students
The Impact of Work-Life Balance and Professional Competence on the Psychological Well-Being of Elementary School Teachers
Get PDFThis study aims to examine the influence of work–life balance and professional competence on the psychological well-being of elementary school teachers in Singorojo Subdistrict, Kendal Regency. The research employed a quantitative explanatory design using a survey method. The population consisted of 246 permanent elementary school teachers working in 35 public elementary schools. Using the Slovin formula with a 5% margin of error, a sample of 152 teachers was selected through proportionate stratified random sampling to ensure adequate representation from each school. Data were collected through validated Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using simple and multiple linear regression. The results show that: (1) work–life balance has a significant effect on psychological well-being (t = 13.593, p < 0.05) with a contribution of 55.2% (R² = 0.552); (2) professional competence significantly influences psychological well-being (t = 8.708, p < 0.05) with a contribution of 33.6% (R² = 0.336); and (3) both variables simultaneously have a significant effect on psychological well-being (F = 107.324, p < 0.05) with a combined contribution of 59% (R² = 0.590). These findings indicate that teachers’ psychological well-being is shaped by their ability to maintain work–life balance and by their level of professional competence. Strengthening these two aspects is essential for supporting teacher welfare and improving the quality of education, particularly in rural elementary school contexts

Get PDFFood security is a global issue that plays a crucial role in achieving food self-sufficiency and poverty reduction. At the national level, Indonesia emphasizes community empowerment, particularly women’s participation, as a key strategy for strengthening sustainable food security through the utilization of local resources. One of its practical implementations is the empowerment of Kelompok Wanita Tani (Women Farmers Group/KWT) in food cultivation and processing activities. This study aims to analyze the impact of seed assistance and food processing technology support on improving household food security in Indragiri Hulu Regency, Riau Province. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using secondary data from the Food Security Agency of Indragiri Hulu Regency (2025) and national literature indexed by SINTA. The findings reveal that seed and food processing equipment assistance programs contribute to increasing food consumption diversification and strengthening household economies, particularly in priority areas for stunting reduction. However, program sustainability remains suboptimal due to the lack of monitoring systems, technical assistance, and market access for processed products. Therefore, this study recommends integrating empowerment programs with digital monitoring systems, strengthening KWT institutions, and enhancing local policy support to build sustainable household-based food self-sufficiency
