Artikel ini mengkaji identitas umat beragam sebagai suatu konsep umum dalam diskursus sosiologi agama. Pengkajian tersebut dilakukan dengan menggunakan pendekatan teori strukturasi Anthony Giddens. Adapun elemen utama dalam teori tersebut adalah struktur penandaan (signifikasi), struktur dominasi, dan struktur legitimasi. Ketiga elemen tersebut digunakan untuk memahami proses konstruksi identitas umat beragama, mulai dari pelibatan wacana, istilah, dan konfigurasi bahasa sebagai langkah mengartikulasikan pemahaman tentang realitas sosial. Pemahaman itu kemudian merigidkan simbol-simbol keagamaan yang menjadi penanda identitas kolektif. Tahapan berikutnya yaitu tahap pembakuan identitas kolektif sebagai identitas umat beragama yang dilegitimasi oleh kuasa-kuasa yang melekat pada pelaku (agency) sehingga menjadikan identitas umat beragama menjadi baku. Ketiga struktur itu saling terhubung dalam dualitas yang meneguhkan bahwa struktur bersifat mengakomodir (enabling) bukan pengekangan (constraining), di mana menjadikan tindakan sosial menjadi mungkin.
This article examines the identity of various people as a general concept in the discourse of the sociology of religion. The assessment was carried out using the Anthony Giddens structuration approach. The main elements in this theory are the structure of signification, the structure of domination, and the structure of legitimacy. These three elements are used to understand the process of constructing the identity of religious communities, starting from the involvement of discourse, terms, and language as a step to articulate an understanding of social reality. That understanding then trifles the religious symbols that become collective identities. The next stage is the stage of standardizing collective identity as the identity of religious communities which is legitimized by the power attached to the actor (agency) so that the identity of the religious community becomes standardized. The three structures are interconnected in a duality that affirms that the structure is accommodating (enabling) not constraining, where social action becomes possible.
