This research aims to analyze the implementation of land acquisition policies in Sorong City from the perspective of social justice for indigenous peoples, and to evaluate the extent to which customary rights are accommodated in the development process. The research method is a mixed-methods study with an embedded design. The qualitative approach was the primary instrument, using in-depth interviews with five key speakers, including land authorities and representatives of the Malaloi Indigenous Peoples Institution (LMA). Quantitative approaches are used only in correlation analysis to reinforce qualitative findings. The study's results show a "Paradox of Justice" in Sorong City. Procedurally, the land acquisition policy has been effective in accordance with Law Number 2 of 2012, supported by a strong statistical correlation between land acquisition and social justice. However, substantively, justice for indigenous peoples has not been fully achieved because the involvement of indigenous leaders in deliberations is often considered a mere administrative formality. The highest correlation between indigenous peoples and social justice confirms that the recognition of customary rights is the main determinant of justice in public policy. The main obstacles identified include difficulties in the administrative documentation of customary lands and paradigmatic differences between the government's materialistic values and the sociocultural values of indigenous peoples. The theoretical implications of this study confirm the importance of communication factors and the disposition of implementers in the implementation of policies in customary territories. In practice, the government needs to reformulate deliberations based on local values and the structural recognition of customary rights.

The Bible teaches much about wisdom. It could even be said to be a book of wisdom. One of the wisdoms it teaches is honesty. The biblical definition of honesty encompasses various aspects of human life, including relationships with oneself, others, and God. Given the breadth of the discussion on honesty, the author limits the discussion to the book of Proverbs, the person and teachings of Jesus, the writings of Paul, and the story of honesty in the life of Joseph. n the Bible, honesty is a highly emphasized moral value. Honesty is not merely about not lying, but also encompasses sincerity of heart, truthfulness in words and deeds, and integrity in all aspects of life. The Bible provides numerous examples and teachings about the importance of honesty, both in human relationships and in our relationship with God. Honesty is not only about avoiding lies, but also about doing what is right and according to God's will.

Parents play a crucial role in introducing and shaping children’s gender identity from an early age. Gender identity is an essential aspect of psychological development that is closely related to the formation of behavior patterns, social attitudes, and personality development in later life. Within the family context, both fathers and mothers have complementary psychological roles in supporting children’s gender development. Mothers are generally more involved in daily caregiving and the fulfillment of children’s physical and emotional needs, while fathers tend to play a more prominent role in social interaction, play activities, and reinforcing discipline as well as adherence to prevailing cultural norms. Parenting practices, whether consciously or unconsciously applied, significantly influence how children understand gender roles, express themselves, and construct their personal identities. Therefore, appropriate, balanced, and developmentally sensitive gender identity introduction is essential to prevent role confusion and potential psychological difficulties in the future. This article aims to examine the role of parents in shaping children’s gender identity from a psychological perspective, emphasizing the importance of responsive, educative parenting that aligns with children’s developmental stages and cultural values.

Migrant workers are vulnerable to exploitation due to transnational and well-organized global human trafficking networks. Recently, a new modus operandi has emerged in human trafficking cases, namely recruitment under the pretext of employment in the overseas digital industry, promoted through social media and LinkedIn. Although these offers appear promising, they instead entrap migrant workers in trafficking schemes. Therefore, comprehensive case assistance involving the roles of government institutions and non-governmental organizations is urgently needed to protect victims. This study aims to examine the case assistance provided by Migrant CARE in addressing human trafficking cases in which victims are trapped as online scammers, viewed from a social welfare perspective. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that the social interventions carried out by Migrant CARE are effective from the engagement stage through the follow-up stage. Supporting factors in the success of case assistance include proactive involvement from the government, victims, families, and the media. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include the absence of personal documents such as passports, identity cards, and family cards, confiscation of mobile phones, and cross-national conflicts. From the individual perspective, supporting factors consist of personal resilience, courage, motivation, and skills, whereas inhibiting factors include victims’ hesitation to leave human trafficking situations due to fear of the risks involved.

. This research is driven by the low literacy of plastic waste management in primary education, where students tend to perceive cleanliness only as disposing of trash without having the skills for reuse. This study aims to describe the utilization of recycled plastic waste media in enhancing students' environmental awareness at MI Salafiyah Syafi’iyah through an experiential learning approach. The method employed is descriptive-analytical qualitative, with data collection techniques including direct observation, interviews, and documentation. The research implementation was carried out through three main stages: participatory waste sorting, selection of clothing pattern designs as adhesive media, and the construction of creative collages into an educational display board named "Karyaku." The results indicate that the integration of plastic waste as a learning medium is capable of transforming students' paradigms from a consumptive to a creative perspective, as well as improving their practical understanding of the 3R principles (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). The success of this research is evidenced by the creation of aesthetic and functional visual media that not only enhances students' creativity but also fosters a sense of responsibility and sustainable environmental concern for the school ecosystem.  

This study aims to analyze the implementation of market ethics from the perspective of Islamic economics on the behavior of business actors at Mandiri Jaya Jatimulyo Market, South Lampung Regency. Islamic market ethics are viewed as a moral instrument that guides economic activities to operate fairly, honestly, and oriented toward public welfare. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving business actors actively engaged in daily market transactions. The findings reveal that Islamic market ethical values, such as honesty, transparency, and moral responsibility, have been applied in trading practices; however, their implementation remains partial and largely dependent on individual moral awareness. Religiosity, economic pressure, the social environment of the market, and the level of Islamic economic literacy are identified as key factors influencing ethical behavior. This study concludes that strengthening Islamic market ethics in traditional markets requires a comprehensive approach involving continuous education, the development of an ethical market culture, and institutional support to ensure sustainable internalization of Islamic values.

This study aims to analyze the existence of the Manggarai-Flores mother tongue amidst the tide of modernity using Ludwig Wittgenstein’s philosophy of language. The mother tongue is understood not only as a tool for communication but also as a medium for shaping meaning, identity, and the sociocultural practices of a community. The research method employed is a qualitative approach using a literature review, examining various works related to the philosophy of language, mother tongues, and the Manggarai language. The findings indicate that the Manggarai language serves a complex function as a living system of meaning embedded in the daily practices of the community. From Wittgenstein’s perspective, the meaning of language is determined by its use within the context of everyday life (language games). This is evident in Manggarai cultural practices such as traditional rituals, oral literature, and daily communication, which are rich in social and cultural values. However, technological advancements and the dominance of national and global languages have led to a shift in the use of the mother tongue, particularly among the younger generation. Thus, the Manggarai language faces not only the threat of linguistic extinction but also the potential loss of cultural identity. Therefore, the preservation of mother tongues must be achieved through their integration into education, the strengthening of cultural literacy, and the revitalization of language use in the social life of the community.

In Surabaya City, the City Government through the Transportation Agency developed the Suroboyo Bus and Trans Semanggi programs to address traffic congestion, limited public transportation, and the need for safe, comfortable, and environmentally friendly transportation. However, complaints are still found regarding limited facilities, irregular schedules, and suboptimal communication services, so that service performance evaluation is needed from the user's perspective. This study aims to analyze the performance of Suroboyo Bus and Trans Semanggi public transportation services at the Surabaya City Transportation Agency using five public service performance indicators according to Dwiyanto et al. (2021), namely productivity, service quality, responsiveness, responsibility, and accountability. The approach used is quantitative with the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) method. The results of the study show an average expectation score (importance) of 4.18 and a reality score (performance) of 3.86 with an overall gap of -0.32, which means that the performance of Suroboyo Bus and Trans Semanggi services still does not meet public expectations. Through the IPA mapping, three attributes are in Quadrant I (high priority): the friendly and professional attitude of staff, the adequacy of on-board facilities, and the transparency of official information regarding schedules and service changes. A total of 13 attributes are in Quadrant II (maintained), 13 attributes in Quadrant III (low priority), and one attribute in Quadrant IV (excessive).

The challenges of modernity, including the secularization of knowledge, the fragmentation of values, and the increasingly pragmatic and utilitarian orientation of education, require a fundamental renewal of Islamic educational philosophy. In practice, Islamic education is often confined to normative and textualistic approaches that emphasize the transmission of doctrinal knowledge, which limits its responsiveness to social dynamics, scientific developments, and contemporary needs. This condition weakens the critical capacity of Islamic education in shaping individuals who are faithful, rational, and morally integrated. Accordingly, this study aims to examine Islamic educational philosophy from the perspective of critical thought reconstruction as an effort to address the challenges of modernity without shifting the fundamental principles of faith that serve as its normative foundation. This study employs a theoretical research approach through library research, using qualitative analysis of academic books, peer-reviewed journal articles, and relevant scholarly works on Islamic educational philosophy and critical thought. The analysis focuses on the ontological, epistemological, and axiological dimensions of Islamic education within the framework of critical reconstruction. The findings indicate that the reconstruction of Islamic educational philosophy is both an epistemological and practical necessity in responding to modern challenges. This reconstruction is not directed toward the domain of ʿaqīdah, which is qaṭʿī and normative in nature, but rather toward renewing modes of thinking, operational value systems, and educational practices. Consequently, Islamic education should function not merely at a normative level but as an effective instrument for individual and social transformation.

This research explores the meaning of leadership in employee experiences at Ayam Uleg Cak Abit outlets in Malang City using a transcendental phenomenological approach. In the context of culinary organizations operating 24 hours without formal managerial structures, leadership is understood not merely as a structural position but as relational experiences shaping daily work life. This study involves six participants (two leaders and four employees) selected through purposive sampling, with data collected through in-depth interviews, non-participatory observations, and documentation. Data analysis follows Moustakas' (1994) four stages: epoche, phenomenological reduction, imaginative variation, and synthesis of meanings and essences. Findings reveal that employees perceive meaningful leadership through leader's direct presence, involvement in operational work, emotional support during high-pressure situations, and creating work environments valuing each employee's contribution. Leadership essence emerges through authentic relationships, consistent exemplary behavior, and sincere care in daily interactions rather than formal authority or hierarchical position. This research contributes to leadership theory by providing phenomenological perspectives and offers practical implications for developing more humanistic leadership practices in informal organizations. The study concludes that meaningful leadership in culinary outlets is built through trust, open communication, and ability to build significant relationships with employees.

This study is motivated by the rapid advancement of digital marketing and the increasing influence of psychological factors in shaping consumer behaviour, particularly among Generation Z, who are highly exposed to social media and global trends in imported skincare products. This phenomenon suggests that purchase decisions are not solely driven by digital marketing strategies but are also significantly influenced by emotional drivers such as Fear of Missing Out (FoMO). Accordingly, this study aims to analyse the effects of affiliate marketing, WhatsApp status, celebrity advertising, and FoMO on the purchase intention of Generation Z consumers in Tangerang City. Specifically, the study pursues five objectives: (1) to examine the effect of affiliate marketing on purchase intention; (2) to analyse the influence of WhatsApp status on purchase intention; (3) to investigate the impact of celebrity advertising on purchase intention; (4) to evaluate the effect of FoMO on purchase intention; and (5) to assess the simultaneous effects of all independent variables on purchase intention. This study adopts a quantitative approach using a survey method, with data collected through structured questionnaires administered to 250 respondents selected via accidental sampling. Data were analysed using multiple linear regression with the aid of SPSS software to examine the relationships among variables. The findings reveal that all independent variables exert a positive and statistically significant influence on purchase intention, with FoMO emerging as the most dominant predictor. These results underscore the greater role of psychological factors relative to digital marketing strategies in driving purchase intention among Generation Z consumers.The contribution of this study lies in integrating digital marketing strategies and psychological factors into a single empirical model, while also highlighting the growing importance of interpersonal digital communication, such as WhatsApp, in contemporary marketing contexts. From a practical perspective, the findings provide managerial implications for businesses to design marketing strategies that are not only informative but also capable of creating urgency and fostering emotional engagement among consumers.    

Abstract. This study aims to examine the causes, forms, and strategies for combating violence against female Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) from a legal, sociological, and gender perspective. The background of this research is based on the vulnerability of female PMI to various forms of physical, psychological, sexual, and economic violence, which occurs from the pre-placement stage to the post-placement stage, as well as the long-term impact on mental health, human rights, and socio-economic reintegration. The method used is empirical legal with primary data collection through in-depth interviews with female PMI victims of violence and accompanying institutions, as well as secondary data in the form of literature reviews, laws and regulations, and scientific publications. The analysis was conducted using descriptive qualitative methods, integrating human rights theory, Feminist Legal Theory, and international migration policy. The results of the study show that the vulnerability of female migrant workers is caused by economic factors, education, patriarchal culture, non-transparent recruitment processes, the characteristics of work in the informal sector, power imbalances with employers, and weak legal protection in the destination country. The forms of violence experienced include beatings, sexual harassment, threats, social isolation, wage withholding, and structural exploitation practices. Protection efforts implemented include preventive approaches through training, legal education, legal document guarantees, and assistance from law enforcement agencies, as well as repressive approaches through action against perpetrators of violence and bilateral cooperation with destination countries. This study emphasizes the importance of comprehensive and sustainable protection for female Indonesian migrant workers, covering all stages of labor migration as well as strengthening digital-based monitoring systems, officer capacity, and cross-sector collaboration to ensure the safety, dignity, and fulfillment of the human rights of female Indonesian migrant workers.  

This study is a case study that analyzes the handling of sexual violence in Cianjur Regency, examining the relationship between social morality, the role of law enforcement officials, and the effectiveness of criminal law policy after the enactment of Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Sexual Violence Crimes (TPKS Law). This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with an empirical juridical method through a sociological approach to law. Data was obtained through interviews with law enforcement officials, field observations, and a literature review of relevant legislation and scientific literature. The results of the study show that the handling of sexual violence cases in Cianjur Regency still faces obstacles in the form of weak social morality, strong stigma against victims, and a patriarchal culture that affects reporting and law enforcement processes. In addition, the role of law enforcement officials has not been optimal due to limited capacity, coordination between institutions, and a lack of sensitivity to the victims' perspective. This study recommends strengthening the capacity of law enforcement officials through training on gender perspectives and the implementation of the TPKS Law, continuous education on social morality at the community level, and strengthening inter-agency coordination to improve victim protection and the effectiveness of criminal law policy in Cianjur Regency.

This study aims to analyze the profitability level of the canteen at Nurul Islam 2 Islamic Boarding School and its contribution to the economy of the boarding school from a sharia perspective. The background of this study is based on the important role of Islamic boarding school business units as a source of economic independence for Islamic educational institutions. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation. The main informants of this study include the canteen manager and several students as consumers. The results of the study indicate that the canteen management has been running effectively, with a transparent financial recording system, separation of personal and operational cash, and a fair and affordable pricing strategy. The canteen's profitability level is relatively stable with an average daily income of between two and three million rupiah, and increases significantly during certain activities such as Sambangan. Business profits not only have a financial impact, but also contribute to financing the boarding school's activities and improving the welfare of students. From a sharia perspective, the economic practices of this canteen have implemented the principles of honesty (shiddiq), justice ('adl), trustworthiness, and blessings (barakah), so that it can be said that the Islamic boarding school canteen is a model of micro-economy based on sustainable Islamic values ​​and oriented towards the common good.

Almost all formal workers dedicate all their time and energy to their companies during their productive years. As a result, it is very difficult for workers to start other businesses besides their formal jobs. Without the skills and strategies for entrepreneurship, many workers find it difficult to survive when they reach retirement age. From a sustainable human resource management perspective, the retirement preparation period (MPP) is a strategic phase for maintaining the social welfare of employees and taking preventive measures to address post-retirement social issues such as decreased productivity, economic dependence, and individual social roles. For employees who will enter retirement age in the next two years, PT. Sindopex Perotama regularly conducts MPP training. This year, the MPP training was themed “food security to achieve food self-sufficiency in retirement.” PT. Sindopex Perotama collaborated with LS Farm, Trawas Eduwisata Center (TEC), and a team from KH. A. Wahab Hasbullah University (UNWAHA) Jombang as part of the Tridharma community service program. This activity was achieved by applying the results of evaluations from observations of previous activities so that it was on target through proper planning (identifying needs in collaboration with partners), implementing activities, and providing direct assistance at the activity location. This program is expected to bring about social change, such as greater social welfare for employees approaching retirement age, greater economic independence in terms of food, and greater awareness of the role of retirees in maintaining food availability and social harmony in their neighborhoods. In addition, this program demonstrates sustainable human resource management practices in companies that care about the welfare of their employees until they retire.

The development of digital media has created new spaces for Islamic preaching practices, particularly through social media platforms such as TikTok and YouTube. Amid the proliferation of religious content that may trigger social polarization, preaching based on Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah (Aswaja) values plays a crucial role in strengthening religious moderation. This study aims to analyze the internalization of Aswaja values tawassuth (moderation), tasamuh (tolerance), and tawazun (balance) in digital da’wah content on TikTok and YouTube from the perspective of Islam Nusantara. This research employs a qualitative approach using content analysis of selected da’wah videos chosen through purposive sampling. The findings indicate that Aswaja values are internalized contextually and adaptively according to the characteristics of each platform. TikTok functions as an effective medium for delivering concise and persuasive messages, particularly related to tolerance and religious moderation, while YouTube serves as a space for deeper, more argumentative, and reflective Islamic discourse. These findings affirm that Aswaja based digital da’wah within the framework of Islam Nusantara plays a strategic role in promoting religious moderation and maintaining social harmony in a plural digital society.

The training on computer network cabling conducted in schools serves not only to enhance students’ technical competencies but also functions as a strategic medium for developing collaborative attitudes, technological independence, and religious social harmony. Based on the community service activities carried out at SMA Negeri 3 Kota Sorong, the training integrated LAN cabling practice, the introduction of network devices, and guided sessions through observation, socialization, practicum, and evaluation. Throughout these stages, students gained direct experience in crimping, attaching RJ-45 connectors, testing cables with LAN testers, and simulating network configurations, which collectively strengthened their technical mastery. From the perspective of the sociology of religion, the training created a shared learning environment where students of diverse religious backgrounds collaborated equally in completing collective technical tasks. Values such as mutual respect, cooperation across differences, and social solidarity were visibly demonstrated as students helped one another in solving cabling-related challenges. Evaluation results indicate that participants became more independent in completing technical tasks and more open in communicating and interacting with peers of different beliefs. These findings emphasize that technology training can serve as a constructive medium for fostering religious social harmony and character building through practical experiences and meaningful social interaction.

The novel Time and Southeast by L. Dela Fimeta, published on October 2, 2023, is one of the literary works in the romance genre that is interesting to study from a linguistic perspective, especially morphology. This study aims to analyze the morphological process of composition contained in the novel, focusing on the types, examples, and semantic aspects that arise in the use of word composition. The research method used is qualitative descriptive analysis with a literature review approach and text review. Data in the form of compositional words were collected from novel texts, then classified based on the type of composition, such as endocentric, exocentric, and idiomatic compositions. Semantic analysis is carried out to examine the meaning resulting from the composition process, both literal and connotative meanings that enrich the nuances of romance in the novel. The results of the study show that this novel uses word composition creatively to build aesthetic expression, strengthen characterization, and present a distinctive emotional nuance. The semantic aspects of word composition also contribute to the development of deep themes and language styles. In conclusion, the morphological study of composition in the novel Time and Southeast makes an important contribution to the development of morphological studies while enriching literary research that integrates language analysis in literary works.

This study examines the influence of the MUI Fatwa Number 83 of 2023 concerning the Legal Ruling on Supporting the Palestinian Struggle on the purchasing interest in Israeli products among the Muslim community in Makassar City, from the perspective of Islamic economic law. The main issue addressed is the low level of public awareness and understanding of the fatwa, amid challenges in identifying products affiliated with Israel and the dominance of global consumer culture. Using a quantitative method within the framework of Islamic economic law, this research involved 156 respondents selected through purposive sampling and analyzed using a Likert scale questionnaire, validation and reliability tests, and regression techniques. The findings indicate that the MUI Fatwa Number 83 of 2023 has a positive and significant effect on purchasing interest (p = 0.000); however, the positive direction of the effect reveals a contradiction between the substance of the fatwa which calls for a boycott and the community’s consumption behavior, which continues to maintain an interest in Israeli-affiliated products. This condition reflects a weak awareness of Islamic economic law among the Muslim community in Makassar City. These findings underscore the need to strengthen education, socialization, and the provision of Sharia-compliant product alternatives to enhance the fatwa’s implementation. Thus, the study concludes that the effectiveness of the fatwa in influencing consumer behavior remains suboptimal and requires ongoing strategic support so that the principles of maslahah, hisbah, and Islamic consumption ethics can be realized in community economic practices.

Interoperability remains one of the most persistent challenges in digital health systems globally, affecting the continuity, quality, and efficiency of care. Electronic Medical Records (EMR) managers are central to implementing and sustaining EMR systems, yet their experiences navigating interoperability challenges are poorly understood. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of EMR managers and to develop a conceptual understanding of the barriers and coping strategies involved. A qualitative phenomenological approach was employed, guided by van Manen’s interpretive framework. The study involved 21 EMR managers from public and private hospitals across three major healthcare networks. Participants were selected through purposive and snowball sampling, with inclusion criteria requiring at least two years of EMR management experience and involvement in interoperability efforts. Data were collected via in-depth, semi-structured interviews conducted virtually between September and November 2025. Each interview lasted 45–60 minutes, was audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and member-checked. Data were analyzed thematically using NVivo 14, following Braun and Clarke’s six-step method. Reflexivity, triangulation, and peer debriefing ensured methodological rigor, in accordance with COREQ and SRQR standards. Four overarching themes emerged: (1) Fragmented Systems, reflecting technical and architectural incompatibilities across platforms; (2) Role Strain and Isolation, describing limited authority and institutional support; (3) Adaptive Workarounds, highlighting informal coping strategies such as manual data tracking; and (4) Systemic Barriers, pointing to policy volatility and vendor resistance. A conceptual “feedback loop of fragmentation” was developed, illustrating how these themes interact to perpetuate interoperability challenges. EMR managers operate as critical yet often overlooked actors in the pursuit of health system interoperability. Supporting their role through policy stability, resource investment, and participatory system design is essential. Future digital health reforms must integrate managerial perspectives to build resilient and connected health information systems.
