Analysis Analysis of The Utilization of Religious Sentiments in Political Parties in The Pilkada Campaign in Sidoarjo
type: item
description: This research analyzes the utilization of religious sentiment in the political campaign strategies of local political parties during the regional head elections (Pilkada) in Sidoarjo. The study employs a qualitative field research method through in-depth interviews, media content analysis, and observation. The purpose is to explore how religious symbols, narratives, and identity politics are mobilized to gain political legitimacy and mass support. In particular, the study focuses on how candidates strategically employ religious expressions, such as references to Islamic values, practices, and symbols, to resonate with voters, especially in a region where religion plays a significant role in social and cultural life. The results show that several political parties in Sidoarjo intentionally used religious issues, particularly those tied to Islamic values and institutions, as campaign tools. These strategies include invoking Islamic symbols, securing endorsements from religious leaders, and framing political discourse within religious narratives to appeal to religious sentiment. It has significant implications for the democratic process, raising concerns about the potential polarization of society and the manipulation of religious identity for political gain. Additionally, such practices may impact religious harmony in the region, as political parties exploit religious sentiments to consolidate their voter base. Theoretically, this study contributes to the discourse of political sociology and the sociology of religion by highlighting how religion is instrumentalized in contemporary electoral politics providing insights into the intersection of religion and political strategy in local governance.

Religion-Based Social Relations in Police Practice in Managing Klitih in the Special Region of Yogyakarta
type: item
description: In recent years, the phenomenon of klitih in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) has caused widespread public concern. Although the police have the authority to enforce the law, addressing this crime is insufficient when relying solely on repressive measures. This article examines how police practices in DIY utilize religion-based social relations—namely forms of collaboration involving religious leaders, majelis taklim, pesantren, and Islamic educational institutions—to manage klitih-related crime. Using a qualitative approach through literature review, interviews, and observation, the study finds that the police have developed various collaborative programs such as religiously framed public safety outreach, mentoring for at-risk youth through majelis taklim, and preventive partnerships with pesantren and dakwah communities. This religion-based approach has proven effective in engaging the moral dimensions of youth, strengthening community social control, and fostering a sense of solidarity between law enforcement, community members, and religious leaders. Nevertheless, its implementation faces several challenges, including limited resources, resistance among some youths, and uneven program continuity. This article asserts that religion-based social relations contribute significantly to expanding the police’s role as inclusive, preventive, and contextually grounded guardians of public order within a religious society.

The Dynamics of Adolescent Relationships and the Disintegration of Moral Regulation
type: item
description: Unplanned pregnancies among teenagers are often perceived merely as a lapse in individual self-discipline. Nevertheless, in Paremono Village, located in Magelang Regency, a community that upholds strong Islamic values, this issue reveals a sociological contradiction. This research seeks to understand why the moral regulations associated with religion fail in deterring risky sexual activities among young people. Employing a qualitative case study method, data were gathered through comprehensive interviews with 20 participants: 10 adolescent girls who are pregnant, 5 parents, and 5 religious leaders. The study's results indicate a breakdown in informal social control structures. Cultural and religious stigmas surrounding sexuality create obstacles to communication within families, resulting in a “reproduction of ignorance.” Consequently, adolescents experience cognitive dissonance: they have theological awareness about what constitutes “sin,” yet lack meaningful moral support to withstand external pressures. Viewed through the framework of Social Learning Theory, the absence of parental and religious guidance is compensated for by peer groups that normalize a liberal dating environment and digital pornography. This research concludes that an abundance of religious symbols does not guarantee moral internalization without engaging in and facilitating open educational discussions. This study suggests enhancing the involvement of religious leaders to reduce the stigma surrounding reproductive health education and to transition the teaching approach from a rigid to a more conversational style.

The Role of Religious Communities in Democracy and Political Participation in Surabaya
type: item
description: Religious communities have an important role in shaping and strengthening democratic practices and political participation in Surabaya, Indonesia. This research employed a qualitative approach, incorporating field observations, in-depth interviews, and literature reviews. The purpose of this article is to understand how religious values and institutions influence the political behavior of citizens. To achieve this objective, the study employs a qualitative case study approach in Surabaya. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with religious leaders and political activists, and a review of relevant literature. All data were then analyzed thematically to identify patterns of political participation among religious communities and how religious values shape their political actions. The findings show that religious actors such as clerics, church leaders, and interfaith communities play an active role in shaping political awareness, encouraging ethical political practices, and mobilizing voters. However, there are challenges, including the politicization of religion and the dominance of exclusive narratives. This study contributes to the sociology of religion by demonstrating how religious life in a plural society can become a force for democratization. Further research is suggested to explore digital religious activism in political contexts

Negotiative Coexistence of the Wahabi Movement and Religious Moderation in East Lombok
type: item
description: This research was conducted in three villages in East Lombok, namely Suralaga, Bagik Nyaka, and Kalijaga, to understand the phenomenon of the Wahabi movement and religious moderation in society. The main reason for this research is the increasing conflict due to differences in religious understanding triggered by the exclusivity of the Wahabi group. This research aims to analyze the pattern of social interaction and values of religious moderation between Wahabi groups and cultural Islamic society. With a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the exclusivity of the Wahabi group led by its elite became a trigger for conflict, while grassroots worshipers showed the potential to accept the values of moderation. Mosques and education are the main media for the spread of Wahabi ideology. However, efforts to strengthen religious moderation can be done by encouraging tolerance and understanding across groups. The conclusion of this research emphasizes the importance of religious moderation strategies to create harmony amid religious differences.

Social Construction of the Power Relations of Sole Parenting of Nyai in the Solo Raya Pesantren
type: item
description: The position of women remains a sensitive topic, both within and beyond the Pesantren. This research aims to examine the social construction of the power relations of the Nyai whose Kiai has left behind. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with snowball sampling. Data collection techniques use interviews, documentation, and observation. The subjects in this study were 4 Nyai from Singoludiro Islamic Boarding School, Al Mubarrok Islamic Boarding School in Boyolali, Qoshul Qur'an Islamic Boarding School in Klaten, and Nyai Al Muayyad Islamic Boarding School in Solo. Social construction consists of three stages. First, externalization occurred during the adjustment period following Kiai's marriage. Second, the objectification stage is carried out by considering the needs of the Pesantren. Nyai then continued Kiai's public role as a wife. It is a sign that a devoted wife must continue Kiai's struggle. The third stage of internalization occurs when Nyai is fully aware of Nyai's position as the sole caregiver in the Pesantren. The parenting pattern used by Nyai is still the same as the Pesantren criteria in providing complete care for Kiai and Nyai. What differs is that the actor caring for him is now a single actor. The connection between power relations and knowledge production is shown in various forms. It can be seen from Nyai that inherent capital, such as capital, cultural capital, and intellectual capital, can produce knowledge according to their basic abilities. This ability was developed through the production process that Nyai and Kiai underwent while living together and through the initial skills they had when managing their care in the past. The notable finding is that Nyai's parenting patterns tend to mirror those adopted from Kiai.

The Transformation of Religious Habitus Among Mahasantri Through a Dormitory Program
type: item
description: The dormitory program serves as a strategic initiative aimed at cultivating students’ religious character through immersive communal living. Functioning beyond its role as a residential facility, the dormitory operates as a structured social field that facilitates the internalization of religious dispositions. This study adopts a descriptive qualitative methodology, drawing on in-depth interviews with alumni of the dormitory program and document analysis of the Ma’had al-Jāmi‘ah curriculum. Guided by Pierre Bourdieu’s theoretical framework—particularly the interrelated concepts of habitus, field, and capital—this research explores how religious practices, institutional oversight, and peer interactions within the dormitory environment contribute to the formation of a religious habitus among student-santri. The findings indicate that while the dormitory program significantly shapes students’ religious orientations, the durability of this habitus post-residency is contingent upon their access to cultural and social capital and the nature of the new social fields they enter. These results underscore the transformative potential of the dormitory program, while also highlighting the need for sustained strategies to support the continuity of religious values beyond the institutional setting.

Tabut in Bengkulu: Comparative Perspectives of KKT and KETAB on Origins, Rituals, and Culturalization
type: item
description: The Tabut tradition in Bengkulu is a cultural heritage with strong historical, social, and religious values. This tradition develops in two main groups, namely Kerukunan Keluarga Tabut (KKT) and Kerukunan Tabut Budaya (KETAB). These two groups have differences in the practice and meaning of traditions, so studying from a comparative perspective is interesting. This study aims to analyze the differences and similarities between KKT and KETAB in the implementation of the Tabut Tradition in Bengkulu. This study uses a qualitative method with a comparative study approach. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with KKT and KETAB leaders, direct observation of the implementation of the Tabut Tradition, and related literature studies. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive-analytical techniques to understand the differences and similarities between the two groups. The results of the study show that although KKT emphasizes more religious and ritual aspects in the Tabut Tradition, while KETAB is more oriented towards cultural and tourism aspects, both still play a role in preserving traditions. In addition, it was found that the difference in meaning did not hinder social harmony between the two groups in the implementation of the Ark event every year. The difference in orientation between KKT and KETAB shows the flexibility of the Tabut Tradition in adapting to changing times. Both groups play an important role in preserving this tradition, both in terms of religion.

Transformation of Social Identity Among Former Thugs in Surakarta City
type: item
description: This article examines the transformation of the social identity of former gangsters (preman) in the city of Solo who seek to rebuild their religious identity through the process of hijrah and active participation in religious communities such as Juba Rescue and Ekspreso. The study employs the Social Identity Theory (Tajfel & Turner) and the Stigma and Identity Management Theory (Erving Goffman) to understand the dynamics of self-transformation and the strategies used to manage a spoiled identity. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and field documentation conducted between 2023 and 2024. The findings reveal that the transformation of former gangsters’ social identity unfolds across five main dimensions: (1) Social Identity Repositioning — from Gangster to Respected Muslim; (2) Symbolic Representation and Self-Presentation; (3) Spiritual Process and Moral Transition; (4) Ideological and Social Loyalty Shifts; and (5) Economic Reorientation and the Emergence of a New Work Ethic. This process illustrates a continuous negotiation between a deviant past and the construction of a renewed religious self, highlighting the success of stigma management in shaping a new social identity within the urban public sphere.

The Dynamics of Religion and Ecology in Indonesia: An Overview of Environmental Social Movements from 1990-2022
type: item
description: In the longstanding debate over the relationship between religion and ecology, there are two major camps. One side argues that religion contributes to ecological destruction, while the other side argues that religion is a force for saving the environment. Yet both sides tend to view religion as a fixed set of beliefs or practices. This article argues that the relationship between religion and ecology is contested and changing. It provides evidence from an empirical study of how social movements use lived religion, meaning everyday practices instead of doctrines or expert definitions. The study used framework synthesis to select and analyze 244 qualitative studies on Indonesian environmental social movements active between 1990 and 2022, resulting in data about 208 movements spread across 38 provinces. 167 of these movements involved lived religion in some way, leading to four findings about religion and ecology: 1) structural factors influencing social movements to include religion in their ecological responses; 2) dynamic relationship between religion and ecology both within each religious community and throughout history; 3) usefulness of lived religion to show how Indonesian religions and traditions provide resources for environmental movements; and 4) extensive creative responses used by social movements to address environmental crises.

Exploring The Relevance Of Pantheism With The Halaika Beliefs Of The Inner Boti Tribe
type: item
description: This article is a development of the Simlitabmas research grant from the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture that I did in 2022 in Boti Village, Ki'e District, South Central Timor Regency and has been published in book form and as my thesis during college. The research that I raised at that time was the Cultural Feudalism of the Boti Tribe According to the Perspective of Paulo Freire's Theory of Liberating Education and Its Implementation in Christian Religious Education. In developing this article, I focus on the essence of halaika through the sociology of religion in order to find its scientific concept and see its relevance to pantheism. The Qualitative Ethnographic Method was used to see the cultural side and the halaika belief side of the Boti Dalam tribe. Literature study was used to add to the literature review related to pantheism. The results of the study show that both have relevance in terms of the meaning of nature as a source of life for humans. Where, nature is a place for humans to live and maintain their lives. In addition, both also believe that behind the existence of nature and human life there is something that envelops them in the limitations of their understanding regarding things that they cannot do. Nature also provides an understanding that what is visible is God who is in the invisible, so that the existence of nature and God becomes an inseparable unity for both.

Religious Tolerance and Multicultural Interactions Among Arabic, Chinese, and Malay Ethnicities in Palembang: A Sociological Perspective on Harmony and Social Integration
type: item
description: This research focuses on accommodating social interaction between Arab, Chinese (Chinese) and Malay groups as a model of multicultural education. This accommodative social interaction is very important because, without accommodative social interaction, different ethnic groups can't live together. This research answers the question of how accommodating social interaction between ethnic groups in Palembang is a multicultural education. This research method uses a qualitative approach to describe accommodative social interactions. Meanwhile, data collection techniques are carried out through interviews, observation and documentation. The research results show that accommodative social interaction is carried out by understanding religious and cultural values ​​between ethnic groups and implementing deliberative accommodation, positive law enforcement and tolerance.

Multiple Religious Belonging sebagai Dinamika Relasi Misi Kristen dan Penganut Aluk To Dolo
type: item
description: This study focuses on the phenomenon of Multiple Religious Belonging (MRB) in the community of Aluk To Dolo adherents in Suppirang and Mesakada villages, bordering Tana Toraja. MRB is understood as a religious practice where individuals integrate elements from more than one religious tradition, in this context, Aluk To Dolo and Christianity. This phenomenon challenges the traditional paradigm of exclusive religion and creates a unique socio-religious dynamic. The purpose of this research is to explore the religious experiences of Aluk To Dolo adherents who participate in Christian practices without abandoning their ancestral traditions. A qualitative descriptive phenomenological approach was employed to understand the behaviors and life patterns of this community. The study also reviews relevant literature to strengthen the analysis of Christian missions and cultural interaction with Aluk To Dolo. The findings reveal that MRB fosters harmonious relationships between Christianity and Aluk To Dolo through the adaptation of traditions and shared practices. However, challenges such as the risk of syncretism and religious identity conflicts remain. In conclusion, MRB serves as a platform for interreligious dialogue, enriching the religious experiences of individuals and communities while reflecting the dynamics of Christian mission transformation in a local cultural context.

The Flourishing of Indonesian Conspicuous Consumption in the Digital World and Its Effects on the Evolution of Hijrah Movements
type: item
description: This study explores the intersection of conspicuous consumption and the Hijrah movement within Indonesia's socio-cultural and economic transformations. The rise of the middle class, coupled with the proliferation of social media, has amplified conspicuous consumption, where symbols of wealth and social status are prominently displayed. In this context, religiosity emerges as a unique form of status signaling, referred to in this study as "conspicuous consumption of piousness." Simultaneously, the contemporary Hijrah movement has gained momentum, marked by its emphasis on personal transformation and lifestyle adjustments rather than political activism. Utilizing qualitative content analysis, this research reveals a reciprocal relationship between conspicuous consumption and the Hijrah movement. It highlights how middle-class anxieties and aspirations provide fertile ground for the Hijrah movement’s growth, while the movement itself fosters a platform for displaying religiosity as a marker of both piety and modernity. These findings contribute to theoretical debates on conspicuous consumption by extending its scope to include immaterial aspects and religious identities in a non-Western context, offering critical insights into the evolving dynamics of consumerism and religiosity.

type: item
description: Humans will never be separated from their culture, and that is the basis for labeling cultured humans. Over time, the culture has developed, which has also received influence from the times. It is not surprising that in the current millennial era, many values ​​from culture have faded, or even experienced a transformation of meaning because they have to be adapted to the millennial era. Of course the study of theology, dogmatics, and practical ethics will not ignore the understanding of this reality. This article explains the Christian perspective on cultured humans in the millennial era. Used qualitative (literature) research methods, this article describe the Biblical basis of cultured humans from both the perspective of the Old Testament and the New Testament. This article develops Christian teachings on cultured humans in the context and millennial era through the perspectives of theologians, and then explains how the thread relates to the theological documents of the Huria Kristen Batak Protestant (HKBP) church in particular. Through this article, concrete contextualization from a Christian perspective on cultured humans in the millennial era will be clearly broken down, especially in the pluralistic Indonesian context.

Elite Political Behavior to Get Government Positions through Site Visits in Malang Regency
type: item
description: The study discusses the behaviour of elites performing pre-election political rituals. This behaviour was carried out in the sacred place in Malang Regency. Political traditions contain the belief that symbols followed by elites interpret religion and politics. In this case, the elite who follow the election is closely related to the various contests that are contested. The study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with databases sourced from informants in the field through the interview process and separating vital and additional informants. It was discovered that the elite’s practice of political rituals was formed by a series of processions at the site of kingdom relics. Political patterns attached to the elite have turned into a form of tradition from initially just a pilgrimage process. This form of ritual is divided into stages. First, understand the ritual conditions and symbols. Second, interpret the patterns performed. Third, transform patterns in the actions of the political elite. This paper shows that studying political culture sourced from the elite still needs to be explored as a social phenomenon ahead of elections in Indonesia.

Salafis and Social Media: The Emergence of Islamic Populism in Indonesia
type: item
description: The development of the Salafism movement in Indonesia is supported by the digitalization of their preaching, even though previously this group claimed to be Puritan, rejected modernization and was known to be strict in interpreting the Koran and hadith. This article explains how Salafi preaching is increasingly spreading on social media with an Islamic populism approach based on political economy. Salafists claim that the digitalization of their preaching can be accepted by society, especially young people in the upper middle class, as evidenced by the millions of people following their social media accounts. This research data was collected through in-depth interviews with Salafi figures and managers of their digital da'wah channels, namely Rasyaad TV in Medan and Surau TV in Padang, and observing content from Salafi's social media accounts. The findings of this research show that Islamic populism is developing and is characterized by the Salafist movement adapting to developments in the digital world. They promote their ideology through Instagram, YouTube, and satellite TV channels. Even though in the early days, their da'wah tended to be more conventional and limited to the Salafi Mahjab community, now it is open to anyone and anywhere. In packaging Salafi preaching content, this movement also adapts to local (Minangkabau) culture, so the local community can accept it. Salafis are also starting to show their support for the democratic system by participating in general elections even though they previously strongly rejected the democratic political system in Indonesia. These findings could have implications for the new Islamic populism movement with the struggle for digital space as the spearhead of da'wah to strengthen Salafi religious ideology as well as negotiate the political system that applies to Salafi congregations in Indonesia

Normalization of Religious Hegemony as Destructive Narrative and Bio-Politics in Minahasa
type: item
description: This research analyzes the normalization of religious hegemony as a bio-political text in controlling the socio-religious movements of the Minahasa community through political truth. Using a qualitative approach with an analytical-descriptive method, this study analyzes the process of religious hegemony normalization. Data collection is conducted through literature studies. Christianity, as a world religion, has become a bio-political text for religious elites to control and legitimize actions of right and wrong within society through dogma. Normalizing theological narratives as an instrument of the elite has become a sublimated ideology. The religious hegemony of ‘Christianity’ has shaped a singular episteme (knowledge) and rejected local wisdom texts in the name of Minahasa’s traditions. First, the study discusses how Christianity, specifically the Evangelical Christian Church in Minahasa (GMIM), has formed bio-politics. Second, the sublimation of colonialist ideology continues to be perpetuated by the church. Third, the normalization of religious hegemony results in the marginalization of local knowledge. The conclusion explains that Christianity has been sublimated to form a singular narrative, becoming a tool for elites to legitimize the socio-religious movements of the Minahasa community.

Mediatization and Hypermediation in Digital Religion and the Transformation of Indonesian Muslim Religious Practices through Social Media Usage
type: item
description: This article examines mediatization and hypermediation in digital religion concerning contemporary Muslim religious practices, particularly in Indonesia, through social media. This study employed a qualitative approach through library study of offline and online sources. The findings reveal that mediatization has altered the way Indonesian Muslims understand and practice their religion. Social media facilitates virtual religious practices and creates a hybrid space between online and offline religious activities. Hypermediation, through platforms such as Instagram and WhatsApp, strengthens individual religious identity and collectively reinforces religious communities. Social media also affects the structure of religious communities by challenging traditional authority through the emergence of popular religious figures in the virtual world. This article contributes significantly to understanding religious transformation in the digital age and is a foundation for further research. The article emphasizes the importance of understanding the social and cultural implications of integrating social media into Muslim religious practices in Indonesia. It highlights the complexity of the relationship between religion, technology, and identity in the current context of digital globalization

Sermons, Controversy, and Community Resilience in Surakarta Mosques
type: item
description: This reasearch aims to explore the forms of controversial religious narratives in the Sagara and Jagananta Mosques in Surakarta, as well as the congregation’s responses to these narratives. The research location is significant because both mosques have been involved in the emergence of an Islamic purist group associated with intolerance and radicalization. The study uses a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach and content analysis, through observations and interviews with eleven mosque members representing the surrounding community. The findings indicate that the controversial narratives emerging in Friday sermons and religious lectures include one-sided condemnations of government policies, political views of other groups, and the demonization of certain communities. In general, the congregations in both mosques demonstrate resilience by questioning and rejecting these narratives, relating them to more official and legitimate sources of information. They respond realistically, rejecting calls such as the condemnation of anti-terrorism laws and the belief that online games are a Jewish attack. Conversely, some more vulnerable members of the congregation affirm these narratives, influenced by feelings of victimization and shared political views. These findings suggest a contestation of religious orientations, which has implications for social transformation within the community.

Sile (Pencak Silat Nias) as a Negotiation of Religion and Culture between Traditional Societies, Islam, and Christianity in Ono Niha
type: item
description: Pencak Silat is no longer limited to martial arts but goes far beyond this. Suppose it is generally understood as a martial art commonly called Sile. In that case, it needs to be seen from the socio-theological praxis of the people of Moro’ö District, West Nias Regency, and the people of Tugala Oyo District, North Nias Regency, where they are Nias people in general who tend to believe traditionally based on customs, as well as Christian church congregations, including Muslims. This article delves into Nias’ traditional pencak silat in 2022-2023. The empirical problem in Christianity is that there is a tendency to label synchronicity that pencak silat as a traditional rite for primitive people, has always been associated with an attempt to display the dimension of “evil spirits” as opposed to the “good spirits” in the Christian faith with the modern eyes of urban people. Meanwhile, Muslims tend to be positioned as immigrants. This paper is in the social setting of North and West Nias as a research field, and it is carried out with empirical qualitative research with a socio-theological approach. Data were collected by observation, interview, and documentation. It was found that there is an increasing immersion in cultural arts expressed through pencak silat as a social space (medium) for people of different faiths and traditions. It was found that North and West Nias Sile displayed spatial negotiations between culture and religion.

Balinese Muslim Women’s Cultural Identity in the Context of Ajeg Bali
type: item
description: This research explores the negotiations carried out by Balinese Muslim women in Candikuning and Sinduwati in articulating their religious and cultural identities. The problems that arise in the study are related to stereotypes about being a Balinese Muslim, the origin of the land of birth, and the issue of secularism. Ajeg Bali, as a Balinese regional government regulation, presents a duality of interpretation of religious practices between Islam and Hinduism as social identities; for Balinese Islamic women, religious attributes such as the hijab are limited through the excessive practice of Ajeg Bali. Meanwhile, for those who adhere to Hinduism, religious practices are emphasized as an identity that is demonstrated and integrated into everyday life. Articulating identity through the legitimacy of local authorities strengthens Balinese identity. Yet, it is a challenge that Balinese Muslim women must manage, mainly to minimize cultural conflict. Marvasti’s ethnographic method is used with Fatima Mernissi’s perspective to elaborate on the identity of Islamic women. The research results show Balinese Islamic women’s negotiations are practiced through language and clothing in the Ajeg Bali practice. Then, the authors argue that cultural hybridity is demonstrated through Balinese dance arts and has combined with Islamic and Balinese aesthetics by strengthening the discourse of being Balinese Islamic Women. Hence, Islamic religious practices need to be formulated with the adoption of Balinese culture to enhance and maintain Balinese Islamic identity without neglecting the value of being Muslim.

Decolonizing Javanese-Islamic Identity in the Discourses of Contemporary Indonesian Islamic Studies
type: item
description: This article discusses the phenomenon of decolonization of Islamic studies as a continuation of postcolonial critical projects that are widespread in various areas of study. In particular, this paper wants to answer two main questions: (1) the background and foundations of decolonization of Islamic studies and (2) its struggle in Indonesian Islamic discourse by focusing on the issue of Javanese-Islamic identity. By analyzing relevant data, this paper concludes that decolonization was motivated by scientists’ anxiety over the impact of colonialism in the academic-scientific area, which formed an oppressive cultural construction. Decolonization seeks to go beyond the postcolonial project, which, at a certain point, is still shadowed by the ideas of Western figures. The epistemological basis of decolonization is a critical approach in the study of religion in general, and it also involves political factors of knowledge in one of its dimensions. In Javanese-Islamic identity, decolonization emphasizes the close intertwining between Javaneseness and Islam, which tend to be separated in colonial studies.
