EDUCATING ISLAMIC VALUES THROUGH WIWITAN TRADITION

Javanese traditions such as wiwitan have often been perceived as being rooted in Hindu and Buddhist culture, and thus syncretic in nature. As the Javanese people have increasingly emphasized rational–functional values, and as orthodox (Islam as represented by santri has become more mainstream, these traditions have been transformed, allowing the ritual wiwitan to become Islamic tradition, expressing gratitude, alms, family, and tolerance. This article explores the educating processes of Islamic values through wiwitan tradition. Data are collected through observations, interviews, and focus group discussions. The analyses use a descriptive and interpretative approach. The findings have revealed that the wiwitan tradition by East Java's farmers is not a syncretic tradition, as commonly argued, but rather has experienced two important transformations. First, it has become more Islamic as an orthodoxy has become mainstream in Java. Second, the wiwitan tradition has a socio-religious purpose of providing a cultural space for divine ( ila hiyah ) and humanitarian (insa niyah) values. Wiwitan has thus offered a means of educating Islamic values, because it contains the values of shukr , s adaqah , kinship, and tolerance.

Storytelling in Apocalyptic Times: Anne Washburn’s Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play

Abstract This article analyzes Anne Washburn’s wildly popular, and often controversial, Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play (2012) by focusing on the principal retellings that shape Mr. Burns and delineating how Washburn’s adaptations produce the thematic content of the play. Washburn deftly interweaves a variety of high and low culture source material within the plot. Pandemic and apocalyptic tropes provide the ecofictional narrative base to adaptations of Stephen King’s The Stand (1978), Euripides’s Orestes, Martin Scorsese’s Cape Fear (1991), and a variety of episodes of The Simpsons (1989–). Through these retellings, Mr. Burns metatheatrically chronicles how stories shape listeners and their cultures. When the stories told simply pander to the materialism, greed, and commodification that permeate contemporary global capitalist culture, then society proliferates those solipsistic values. Washburn ultimately argues that, in what may seem like apocalyptic times, storytelling as embodied in the theater arts must instead advocate humanitarian collectivist values.

Philosophical review of heredity and environment in Islamic education

This research explains that heredity affects the formation of personality. However, it is not the only one absolute factor which can’t be changed. In fact, personality can be supple and the tool to change is the environment.

Beyond the ‘Sham’ Critique and the Narrative of Humanitarianism: A Rejoinder to Jochen von Bernstorff

This is a Rejoinder to Jochen von Bernstorff’s Reply to our Article, ‘Monopolizing War: Codifying the Laws of War to Reassert Governmental Authority, 1856–1874’. We challenge von Bernstroff’s assertion that we argued that international humanitarian law is merely a sham and his description of our historical approach as focused on the domestic. Rather than conceiving this history as merely one of power relations between weaker and stronger states, our argument pierces the sovereign veil of states and considers how tensions between governments, elites, and the broader public influenced the history of the laws of war. Furthermore, the thrust of our argument is that democratization processes in this formative period (1856–1874) set in motion civil society initiatives that reverberated in the battlefields of Europe and shaped the content and form of the laws of war. Our project is meant to help us better understand the past and, in doing so, shed light on the meaningful efforts to insert humanitarian values into the interpretation of the laws of war.

Attitudes of teachers and students towards Olympic and humanitarian values

Olympic education is closely related to the assumptions and values of Olympism. Olympic values are a theme dear to Olympic education, which seeks to rescue the relationship between sport and the presuppositions and pedagogical values present in the Olympic Movement. Olympic Values serve as a code of conduct for the Olympic Movement, and strive to guide the attitudes and actions of all those involved in Olympic activities, be they competitive, administrative, or voluntary work. One tries to combine sport, education and culture, using the harmony between body and mind, excellence of oneself, integrity in actions, mutual respect, and joy found in effort. Thus, the objective of this research was to measure the self-perception of teachers and students in an educational program for sports, from the state of Sao Paulo (Brazil). The results showed differences between the groups of teachers and the one of students, as well as differences concerning the variables of gender and age, and the knowledge and education of the participants regarding Olympic values and Olympic education within the premises of good performance in sports and the judgment of their own behaviors regarding humanitarian values.

A Path Toward Inclusive Social Cohesion: The Role of European and National Identity on Contesting vs. Accepting European Migration Policies in Portugal.

The Western hemisphere has witnessed recent increased immigration flows generating social and political debate across Europe. In one view, migration flows represent an opportunity to construct a diverse social cohesion. In another view, migration flows are perceived as a threat to existent national cultures. This view is held by political nationalisms and right-wing populist forces installed in the majority of EU countries’ parliaments, accentuating discrimination against immigrants and residents in Europe. We theorize that European identity predicts positive attitudes toward immigrants (prosocial behavior and support for inclusive policies), whereas national identity’s predictions of attitudes toward immigrants’ inclusion depends on participants’ political tendency. Moreover, we test the mediation effect of positive (humanitarian concerns and economic benefit) and negative (jobs scarcity, cultural deterioration, and invasion) arguments used in political discourses regarding immigrants’ inclusion on the relation between national and European identities and attitudes toward immigrants’ inclusion. Results (Portuguese sample, N = 176) show that national identity predicts negative attitudes toward immigrants’ inclusion, but only among right-wing individuals. Among left-wing individuals, national identity predicts less contestation to immigrant’s inclusion sustained by humanitarian concerns. Interestingly, European identification weakened right-wing individuals’ adherence to discriminatory arguments and increased perceived economic contribution that immigrants bring to society, increasing agreement with prosocial behavior and immigrants’ inclusion. We discuss that European identity, sustained in humanitarian values and economic benefit, may stimulate a stronger multicultural social cohesion, intergroup trust, and social well-being based on democratic values, social justice, and equality, and on the respect for human dignity.

Innovative Changes in Education of the 2010s: Pro and Cons

The article offers a theoretical analysis of the advantages and contradictions of innovative changes in modern education. The author uses the data presented in the UNESCO and Council of Europe programmes, reviews in the main areas of innovative development, but also information from the websites of international organizations, implementing innovative educational models. The ideas of lifelong learning, inclusion and open education in the 2010s are meanwhile developing in conditions of"liquid modernity" (Bauman, 2000). Metamodern culture, the capitalization of knowledge, digitalization and network socialization are presented as the main external sources of the innovative boom in the education world of the 2010s. Against the background of the technological development one can see serious risks of forcing the humanitarian values and basic foundations out of pedagogic processes. In this regard, the need for constant critical reflection on the results of innovative education changes is emphasized.

MEVLÂNA’NIN MESNEVÎSİ'NDEKİ BAZI İNSANÎ DEĞERLER

Mesnevî kuşkusuz insani değerlerin ve mükemmelliklerin büyük ve güvenilir bir hazinesidir. İnsan zihninde hayal edilen ahlakî erdemlerin ve insanî erdemlerinin çoğu, Mesnevî-i Manevî’de toplanmış gibi görünüyor ve bu da bu büyük ve tarihi eseri çekici ve ölümsüz hale getiriyor. Bu anlamda Mesnevî’ye "'iyilikler hazinesi" denilmesi gerekir. Mesnevî, baştan sona Allah’ı tanıma ve Allah’ı bulma arayışının eseridir. Mevlâna’nın Mesnevî'deki esas hedefi, Rabb'in gerçek bilgisi ışığında kişinin kendisine bilmesi ve ibadet etmesi gerektiği gibi Allah’a ibadet etmesidir. Mesnevî- i Manevî, bu derece değerli bir eser haline getiren ana nedenlerden biri insanî kavramların ve değerlerinin varlığıdır. Bahsedilen konuya ek olarak, Mesnevî'yi sonsuz ve kalıcı bir iş haline getiren ana temalardan birisi de Mesnevî'nin tümünde görünür olan Kur’ân malzemesinin güçlü ve yaygın varlığıdır. Gerçekten de Rûmî'nin Mesnevî"si, ebedî temaları ve muhtevasıyla, yazılışından bugüne beşeri bilimler için susuzluğu gideren büyük bir kaynak olmuştur. Kuşkusuz, bu büyük ve muazzam kitabın değerinin ve ölümsüzlüğünün nedenlerinden biri, bir dizi muhteşem konuyu ve kavramı kapsaması ve dolayısıyla bu konularla ilgilenenlerin ilgisini çekmesidir.

The information practices and politics of migrant-aid work in the US-Mexico borderlands

Numerous organizations work to provide humanitarian aid to undocumented migrants along the US-Mexico border—from running shelters in Mexico to placing water on migratory trails. Resistance to information-sharing between organizations (and to the public), especially through technologically mediated means, is common. However, some organizers and volunteers work across organizational boundaries and share information informally. Information secrecy is often justified by concerns that law enforcement authorities or anti-immigration activists might gain access to information, allowing them to harm, detain or remove migrants, or interfere with humanitarian work. The choices made about the collection and (non)disclosure of information are manifestations of what we call “liminal” information practices: such behaviors are unique to humanitarian volunteers working in the gray, ethical area between law enforcement and humanitarian values and action, and they are guided by the information politics at play within this context.

Rights of an Individual and Care for the Future of the Ancestry: Possibilities and Boundaries of Axiomatics Construction in the Context of the Legal Regulation of Bioengineering

The paper analyzes the possibility to predict and even retrospectively trace all socio-historical consequences of scientific discoveries, as well as their impact on the deep layers of human existence. On the example of the studies that led to the discovery of antibiotics, the boundaries and capabilities of those who claim to be experts in the field of futurology are demonstrated. The paper elucidates the role of social institutions and practices through which the control is exercised over the processes of using the latest achievements of science and insufficient level of competence in managing the development of technical systems. The author highlights the intuition of philosophers and representatives of the humanitarian intelligentsia regarding such significant effects of modernity as “cultural and ethnic redistribution” and other similar results of the development of the scientific thought. The paper provides for the outlines of axiological uncertainty in which Russian legislators find themselves seeking to rely in their activities on the Russian tradition, which includes pre-revolutionary, revolutionary and post-revolutionary periods. These periods are very different from the axiological point of view. At the same time, value gaps arose, were smoothed and overcome, and the whole system of values is in the process of searching for their own identity. The author has investigated the conceptual possibilities of presentation in the content area of the legal thought of the phenomenon of somatic human rights in the context of their legislative protection. Discussions among lawyers of integrity of the individual and means of its legal protection are analyzed. The paper deals with the correlation of individual and collective goal-setting in the Society of Knowledge and within the framework of the modern system of social relations. The current principles of bioethics as the basis of legal regulation and as implication of the system of humanitarian values and human rights are subject to philosophical and critical reflection.
