National Identity Crisis as a Challenge for the Young Generation in the Era of Globalization. A national identity is a marker of an identity belonging to and attached to a nation or a country that can be distinguished from another. National identity must be able to preserve the existence and survival of a nation because it contains cultural values that have similar characteristics, physical characteristics, ideals and goals. National identity, therefore, is vital for implanting and applying to daily life as to the future of nations. In today's times of globalization, most aspects of life have changed. That certainly brings with it both the good and the bad effects that society has to face. Many foreign cultures are moving in and developing within communities. It can, of course, threaten the national identity of the nation. National identity crises can occur especially in the younger generation, which can very easily be affected by the current globalization. Awareness of the importance of keeping cultural values as national identity began to fade. To that end, efforts must be made to foster a renewed awareness of national identity, which is appropriate to the development of nowaday's science and technology.

This research aims to examine the role of music in strengthening national unity based on the values ​​of Pancasila. The approach used is descriptive qualitative with the aim of deepening the understanding of the relationship between music and Pancasila values ​​and their impact in building unity and integrity in society. This research involves analysis of music theory, Pancasila concepts, as well as case studies to illustrate the relationship between the two. First of all, this research describes the concept of diversity and Pancasila values ​​as a philosophical basis for understanding the unity of the Indonesian nation.

This research explores the role of music in reflecting Pancasila values ​​and facilitating social integration among diverse communities. Music as a medium for artistic expression has the power to convey messages of diversity, tolerance and unity through its lyrics, melodies and artistic performances. Case studies will show how various musical genres, such as traditional music, pop, rock, etc., can unite various social groups and dissolve cultural and religious differences. In addition, this research will discuss the practical impact of implementing Pancasila values ​​in the music industry and music education in Indonesia. By strengthening understanding of Pancasila values ​​in musical works and conveying positive messages, music can be an effective means of strengthening ties of brotherhood among Indonesian people. Other strategies that can be developed in this context include the use of music in formal and informal educational programs aimed at fostering a spirit of nationalism, tolerance and social justice. In conclusion, this research shows that music has great potential as a tool to strengthen national unity based on the values ​​of Pancasila. With a deeper understanding of the relationship between music and national values, we can develop more effective strategies in promoting harmony and solidarity amidst the diversity of Indonesian society.

This study aims to develop an Islamic Religious Education (PAI) curriculum that incorporates multicultural values to foster religious moderation among students. The proposed curriculum integrates principles of cultural diversity and tolerance into PAI learning materials, allowing students to comprehend Islamic teachings while also appreciating and interacting harmoniously with adherents of other religions. Utilizing a qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach, this study addresses multicultural education as a relatively new phenomenon in PAI courses, emphasized as an essential competency for both lecturers and students. The phenomenological approach seeks to understand the daily lives and intersubjective experiences of the participants, aiming to reveal the meaning of concepts and phenomena as perceived by individuals. Conducted in a natural setting, this approach permits unrestricted interpretation of the phenomenon, granting researchers the freedom to analyze the data comprehensively. The findings indicate that a multicultural PAI curriculum effectively promotes an understanding of religious moderation among students and heightens awareness of the importance of multicultural perspectives in religion. These results are intended to guide educators and policymakers in creating a more inclusive PAI curriculum, thereby supporting the development of a peaceful and harmonious society.

The phenomenon of globalization has transformed the world's landscape, connecting nations, and inspiring the concept of Special Economic Zones (SEZs). The utilization of Foreign National Health Workers (FHNWs) has become a strategy to address the shortage of medical personnel and enhance healthcare services, particularly in remote regions. However, the implementation of this policy also faces several ethical, cultural, and linguistic challenges. The ethical aspect takes center stage in the utilization of FHNWs. Patient rights, professionalism, and cross-cultural collaboration are crucial focal points in healthcare service practices. Despite its benefits, the utilization of FHNWs encounters communication hurdles, especially when the employed language is unfamiliar. Additionally, the integration of local cultural values becomes a pivotal aspect in delivering sensitive and patient-centered care. This paper analyzes policy documents related to the utilization of Foreign National Health Workers (FHNWs) in Indonesia through normative and predictive approaches. The objective is to comprehend the concepts and regulatory implementations concerning the ethics of FHNW utilization within the context of Indonesian healthcare services. The phenomena of globalization and efforts to expedite economic growth through Special Economic Zones (SEZs) have influenced these policies. The analysis involves various policy documents relevant to FHNW utilization. In facing the ethical dilemmas arising in the practice of healthcare services by foreign medical personnel, it is imperative for them to adapt to the local culture without compromising the principles of medical ethics. Moreover, competition within the job market and cultural disparities between foreign and local medical personnel also present challenges that need to be addressed. In dealing with competition, a holistic approach involving the government, relevant institutions, and professional training for local medical personnel is required. Overall, the utilization of FHNWs holds potential benefits in addressing medical workforce shortages and enhancing healthcare access. However, this utilization must be carried out with ethical responsibility, respecting patient rights, and considering cultural and professional aspects. With a prudent approach, the utilization of FHNWs can contribute to improving the quality of healthcare services and the well-being of local medical personnel, in line with ethical principles and national interests.

 Arts and culture subjects play an important role in shaping students into creative individuals, maintaining and developing the nation's cultural heritage, while providing support in facing future challenges. The skills acquired through this subject are considered an integral part of the provision provided to students. In the current era, it can be seen that cultural heritage is increasingly fading because it is being eroded by time. Cultural performances and the number of traditional art performers continue to decline, especially guritan art, which has resulted in this cultural heritage becoming increasingly unknown to the public, and people's interest in enjoying traditional art performances from their ancestors is also decreasing. This condition is a serious concern for South Sumatra cultural observer, Vebri Alianti, who stated that cultural heritage is currently threatened with extinction and being eroded by the currents of time (Faldy, 2018). Guritan lahat often highlights local stories, regional legends, heroic stories, as well as the values ​​of introducing and providing an understanding of the art of guritan in class IV of SD Negeri 7 Mulak Ulu, Lahat Regency using the demonstration method. Through this assessment, it is hoped that it can contribute to the development of arts education in Lahat in particular and in Indonesia in general. Thus, this research is entitled "Learning Guritan Art Using Demonstration Methods in Class IV Negeri 7 Mulak Ulu, Lahat Regency"
