Towards an epistemological decolonization of legal pluralism

This paper ascertains the relevance of decolonial scholar Mahmood Mamdani’s point concerning the continuing influence of colonial constructions of permanent minorities in postcolonial states for analyses of the socio-political dimensions of culture- and religion-based legal pluralism in Indonesia. Authoritarian centralism paired to extractivist state policies motivated Indonesian activists since the mid-1980s to revitalise the colonial constructs of distinct native customary law communities and their respective commons. The collapse of the Suharto regime in 1998 and the ensuing decentralisation and democratisation process supported by the Breton Woods institutions, finally provided opportunity to successfully push for greater legal accommodation of local customary norms and institutions that has run parallel to the rapidly increasing legal accommodation of shari’a law, giving boost to the longstanding opposition between customary and Islamic law in Indonesia with roots in the colonial past. As the plethora of reported human and national citizen rights infringements in connection with the legal accommodation of both customary and Islamic law raises doubt about the democratising potential of Indonesian legal pluralism, it is legitimate to inquire more deeply into the epistemological foundations of its construction. These can be traced back to the organicist ideas of Savigny’s German Historicist School of Jurisprudence as translated into Dutch colonial legal discourse, policy and customary law research. Because the ensuing colonial legal pluralism was linked to policies of indirect rule geared towards the political fragmentation and economic disempowerment of indigenous opposition, Indonesian legal thinkers after independence sought to decolonise Indonesian customary law research and its opposition to Islamic law–with limited success.

Citation analysis of academic literature on terrorism and social media in Indonesia

This research aims to evaluate the trends in publications regarding terrorism and social media in Indonesia in 2010 to 2023. The data is categorized by publication year, research topics, and fields of study. Researchers also calculated the citations received by each publication By using citation analysis, the study seeks to uncover patterns of scholarly attention, identify the most cited works, and determine the degree to which Indonesian research is integrated into the global discourse on terrorism and digital media. This research is necessary because of limited bibliometric assessment of how this field has grown and how influential it has been. The research findings indicate that publication trends peaked in 2021 in several topics such as radicalization/propaganda, counter radicalism/deradicalization, and religious moderation. The fields of Islamic studies and Communication studies were the most prolific in publishing studies on this subject. Of the 165 articles analyzed, only 15 articles received more than 10 citations in the broader terrorism research. On average, social media and terrorism research were cited only six times per publication in the broader terrorism literature. These suggest a lack of integration with the broader terrorism literature.

A Collaborative Auto-ethnographic Study of Indonesian Higher Degree Research Students’ Adaptation in Anglophone Universities

Background: This research explores the experiences of Indonesian doctoral students in English-speaking universities through a collaborative auto-ethnographic approach. Utilising Schartner and Young's (2016) stress and coping strategies and culture-learning frameworks, we analyse narrative data to investigate our academic and sociocultural journeys in the US, UK, and Australia. Methodology: To attain a profound comprehension, we participate in personal and group introspection, analysis, and interpretation, utilising imaginative thought, creativity, emotional self-exploration, and ongoing dialogues. The study identifies four major psychological adaptation themes (social support, survival, spirituality, and compliance), a critical socio-cultural adaptation theme (feeling like cultural aliens), and a vital academic adaptation theme (questioning our academic capability amid struggles with critical reading and writing). Findings: The findings reveal three themes: Psychological Aspects: “Social Support, Survival, Spirituality, and Compliance”, Sociocultural Aspect: “We Are Cultural Aliens”, Academic Aspect: “Questioning Our Academic Capacity as We Struggled to Read and Write Critically”. Conclusion: The findings underscore the significance of awareness and emphasise the necessity for effective adaptation among international doctoral students. This research contributes valuable insights into the challenges faced by Indonesian doctoral students in Anglophone academic settings, shedding light on the importance of support systems, cultural understanding, and academic confidence stop where for a successful academic journey. Originality: While previous studies have largely examined the difficulties faced during adaptation, the way these challenges ultimately lead to successful outcomes remains under-explored. This research seeks to address this deficiency by investigating how Indonesian international research students in Anglophone universities convert cultural, psychological, and academic obstacles into successful adaptation.

Body conformation based on chest girth, body length, and body volume of the local Peranakan Etawah goat

Abstract Body conformation is determined by chest girth (CG), body length (BL), and body volume (BV). Body conformation is correlated with productivity, which becomes a useful variable for managing and selecting animals. Data on CG, BL, and BW (body weight) were collected from the local Peranakan Etawah (PE) goat, both male (29 hds.) and female (151 hds.), aged 1-≥5 yr. at the Dairy Goat Station of IRIAP (Indonesian Research Institute for Animal Production), Bogor, West Java. BV was estimated from BL and CG by a formula: BV = BL.π[(½CG)/π]2. The prediction of BW from BL, CG, and BV was developed using stepwise linear regression. By the grouping 1-5 yrs. ages, the averages of BV in females were obtained at 23.6±7.3 dm3, 31.9±9.2 dm3, 43.9±10.9 dm3, 47.5±10.9 dm3, and 41.8±7.5 dm3, while those in males were 25.0±4.8 dm3, 39.7±9.0 dm3, 36.9±6.8 dm3, 46.2±6.2 dm3, and 51.1±9.3 dm3, respectively. Predicted BWs proved that BW was mainly determined by BV rather than CG and BL. The conclusion was that BV was significantly associated with BL and CG, whereas BV largely determined BV.

Mapping Religious Moderation and Its Impact on Islamic Education in Indonesia: A Bibliometric Approach

As a country with high religious and cultural diversity, Indonesia makes religious moderation a crucial issue in maintaining harmony and tolerance between religious communities. In this increasingly complex context, research on religious moderation is becoming increasingly relevant. It is necessary to conduct a study that allows us to comprehensively map the publications that have been carried out related to religious moderation to see research trends, dominant topics, and knowledge gaps that still need to be filled. This study aims to get an overview of the trend of religious moderation research in various contexts and scientific perspectives. The research was conducted by collecting multiple articles that have been published and indexed on the reputable database scopus.com. The data obtained was analyzed using bibliometric analysis with the help of R Studio bibliophily. The results obtained 113 data published in the period 2007 to 2024. Based on visual analysis, it is known that religious moderation related to gender is the dominant issue in the period 2012-2024. In addition, there are unique themes related to local wisdom, education curriculum, and human rights. Indonesia is the most preferred country for diverse moderation research, and the dominant number of publications from Indonesian researchers and educational and research institutions in Indonesia reinforces this. However, not much research has attempted to build cross-country networks, so it is necessary to conduct cross-country and cross-religious studies for religious moderation research in the future.

CSN1S1 Gene Polymorphism of Indonesian Local PE, Saanen, and Sapera Goats

CSN1S1, or alpha-s1 casein, gene is one of milk's four significant casein-controlling genes. Genetic variations in this gene have been proposed to affect milk protein quality in dairy goats. This study investigated the genetic polymorphism of the CSN1S1 gene using a direct sequencing method in local Peranakan Etawah (PE), exotic Saanen, and their cross or Sapera goats. Blood samples were collected from 66 Sapera, 15 Saanen, and 14 PE does at the Indonesian Research Institute for Animal Production (IRIAP) in Bogor, West Java Province. The MEGA11 program was used to analyze the sequence data of the CSN1S1 gene in DNA fragment exon 12 and partial intron 12. A Popgen 3.2 packet program was applied to analyze allele and genotype frequencies, Hardy-Weiberg (H-W) equilibrium, and the degree of heterozygosity (Ho) values. Four SNPs were identified: g.10243 GA, g.10250 AG, g.10277 GA, and g.10283 TG. Based on the allele and genotype frequencies, H-W equilibrium, and Ho values, the CSN1S1 gene at the four loci was polymorphic in all three goat genotypes. These SNPs may be considered candidate selection markers for milk protein quality. This study provides insights into the genetic diversity of CSN1S1, which is crucial for molecular selection to improve milk protein quality in local PE and its crosses.

Authorial Presence of Indonesian Authors in Academic Discourse: A Study of English and Indonesian Research Articles

This study scrutinizes the authorial presence in English and Indonesian research articles written by Indonesian authors. The study aims to identify the frequency of first-person pronouns used as a form of authorial presence across research articles. Furthermore, the study also intends to examine the discourse functions of these first-person pronouns in academic writing. A corpus of 168,122 words was analyzed by utilizing corpus linguistics methodology. The findings show that there is a difference in the use of first-person pronouns between the English and Indonesian sub-corpora with the most frequent usage of first-person pronouns found in English research articles. In addition, the study investigated the clusivity and the discourse functions of first-person pronouns within the research articles in both English and Indonesian. The results indicate that Indonesian authors tend to adopt the Western academic style in using first-person pronouns as authorial presence despite the conservative style used in their native language. This reflects the different norms of academic discourse across languages.
