Indonesia’s identity politics and populism: Disruption to national cohesion
No full textThe principle of unity in diversity in Indonesia is increasingly challenged by the rise of identity politics and populism. These dynamics emerge as a confluence of pragmatic political strategies and the mobilization of sectarian groups, often leveraging religious and ethnic sentiments during election campaigns. While effective in garnering popular support, such tactics undermine national unity and social cohesion, serving as a shortcut to power at the cost of societal harmony. This issue is particularly pronounced in district head elections, where the politicization of tribal, religious, racial, and inter-community identities has become pervasive. These elections, intended to reflect democratic principles, are frequently overshadowed by divisive identity-based politics. This paper examines how identity politics and populism pose a significant threat to social cohesion, especially during general elections. Employing a normative research methodology, it analyzes legal norms and ethical theories to argue against the use of identity politics and populism at any level of political campaigns. The findings reveal that practical politics in Indonesia often relies on these divisive strategies for electoral success, exacerbating pre-existing societal tensions. The paper posits that identity politics can be overcome with reinterpreting it and referring Pancasila as principle to attain better policy
Effectiveness of various leg muscle training methods on increasing leg muscle strength
No full textLower limb muscle strength is crucial for functional human activities, providing body stabilization, maintaining posture, and enabling various movements. Insufficient training can hinder muscle protein synthesis, leading to diminished strength in the lower limbs. Regular training, particularly resistance exercises, is essential for improving this strength. Numerous training methods have been developed, such as resistance training, plyometric exercises, bodyweight exercises, isolation training, movement-based practices, and technology-assisted techniques, though their relative effectiveness remains a topic of ongoing evaluation. This literature review aims to assess the effectiveness of various lower limb strength training methods across diverse populations, including adolescents, athletes, and older adults. The review involved a systematic search of PubMed and Google Scholar, using defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in 16 eligible studies. The effectiveness of each training method was analyzed by comparing study findings, which incorporated different research designs. All included studies indicated significant improvements in lower limb strength, although the magnitude of the improvements varied based on training intensity, duration, and participant characteristics. Compound and resistance training demonstrated comprehensive strength gains, plyometric exercises improved explosive power, and isolation training was particularly effective for strengthening specific muscle groups. Among older adults, combined training proved to be the most effective, enhancing both strength and balance, as well as functional mobility. These results highlight that no single training method is universally superior, underscoring the importance of customizing exercise programs to meet individual needs and objectives
Thought and exemplary Islamic nationalism of the early days of independence Indonesia: Learning from Ki Bagus Hadikusumo
No full textIndonesian nationalism is characterised by a blend of religious and national identities that coexist and reinforce each other. This paper presents a profile of the background of Ki Bagus Hadikusumo\u27s thoughts, life, and nationalism during the early days of Indonesian independence. Ki Bagus Hadikusumo is one of Indonesia\u27s national heroes who can be classified as an Islamic nationalist during the formulation of the Indonesian state. This figure, active in the Muhammadiyah Islamic movement organisation, has significantly contributed to the formulation and establishment of Pancasila as the basis of the state. The life background thought, and Muhammadiyah as the organisation of the Islamic movement have formed not only pure monotheistic attitudes and behaviours and precise tolerance but also a high sense of nationality and love for the homeland to provide exemplary social piety and statesmanship for citizens

Development of a Shorinji Kempo training model based on local dances from East Nusa Tenggara to improve basic technical and affective skills of kenshi aged 9-12 years
No full textThe integration of local cultural elements such as traditional dance into martial arts training offers a potential pathway to enhance both technical proficiency and affective learning among young practitioners. This study aimed to develop and test a feasible and practical Shorinji Kempo training model, based on local dances from East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), to improve basic techniques and affective aspects in kenshi aged 9–12 years. This study used a 10-step Borg and Gall research and development framework involved expert validation, small-scale trials (30 kenshi), and large-scale trials (100 kenshi) across five dojos in Yogyakarta. The subjects in this study were kenshi aged 9-12 years with a total of 130 kenshi. Data were collected through interviews, field notes, evaluation sheets, validation questionnaires, and a Kenshi assessment rubric. Three training models were developed: “Gotong Royong” (based on Lego-Lego dance), “Gembira” (Cakalele dance), and “Spirit” (Moko Nona dance). Results from expert validation showed high feasibility (100%). Paired t-test analysis revealed significant improvements in basic technical skills (p = 0.000) and affective aspects following the intervention. The intervention using the three training models resulted in an 87% improvement in basic technical skills and a 93% improvement in affective aspects among the kenshi. This study demonstrates that the Shorinji Kempo training model, grounded in the philosophical movements of East Nusa Tenggara traditional dances, effectively enhances both technical and affective competencies among young kenshi aged 9–12, offering a culturally grounded pedagogical approach that supports holistic development. The findings suggest that integrating local dance philosophies into martial arts training improves both motor and affective learning in young practitioners, providing an engaging and culturally relevant training alternative

Exploring the role of international rankings in the development of institutional public relations strategies
No full textThe study uncovered that private universities must rely on more than their international ranking achievements to maintain their legitimacy in the competitive market. The institution must utilize its public relations effort to enhance its competitive position in the global education market by emphasizing transparency, the relevance of the message, and demand from the stakeholders. The study employed in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with 37 first-year students attending a private institution. The study revealed that students\u27 decision-making process in selecting a private university was intricate and involved multiple aspects. In addition to rankings, students also considered variables such as parental influence, networking possibilities, availability of information, and the level of facilities and support services provided by the university. The university\u27s public relations team has the responsibility to liaise with other units, such as the school counsellor and marketing, to help develop the most relevant information needed, especially during the student recruitment process. Although university rankings like QS and Times Higher Education may help gauge institutions\u27 perception of quality and prestige, it is advisable to adopt a more balanced approach. Access to information via digital platforms, such as websites and social media, has played a critical role in demonstrating the program\u27s and university\u27s reliability
A Study on the Pattern of Selfie Culture among University Students in Bangladesh
No full textThis study endeavors to explore the determinants behind the prevalence of selfie culture in the light of selfpresentation strategies. It applied Erving Goffman’s (1959) Self-Presentation theory to scrutinize the pattern of selfie culture among university students in Bangladesh. Following a qualitative methodology, semistructured interviews were conducted among 20 participants as a purposive sample age range from 20 to 25 years old. The results demonstrate that the participants tend to invest considerable attention to take selfies, afterward use filters to maximize the “best version” of the self, and eventually post them in the digital world. Their desire to represent the “best version” of themselves and gain the attention of others reflect the narcissist traits of the participants. Also, their level of self-esteem increases when they feel confident and see their “retouched image” after using photographic filters
