Public welfare is the ultimate goal of every economic development. HDI as an indicator of welfare in Indonesia continues to increase from year to year, but is very volatile. The province with the highest HDI points is DKI Jakarta province and the lowest is Papua Province. This shows that the increase has not occurred significantly and there are still disparities in several provinces in Indonesia. This research aims (1) To analyze  the direct influence of GRDP and minimum wages on poverty in Indonesian provinces in 2018-2022. (2) To analyze the influence of GRDP, minimum wage and poverty directly on HDI in Indonesian provinces in 2018-2022. (3) To analyze the influence of GRDP and minimum wages on HDI indirectly through poverty in Indonesian provinces in 2018-2022. This research uses secondary data obtained from BPS publications during 2018-2022, with a total of 170 observation points. The data analysis technique used is path analysis with the help of EViews 10 software. The results of the study indicate that PDRB has a significant negative direct effect on poverty, Provincial Minimum Wage has a significant positive direct effect on poverty, both PDRB and Provincial Minimum Wage have a significant positive direct effect on the HDI, and poverty has a significant negative direct effect on the HDI. Poverty is not an intervening variable in the relationship between PDRB and the HDI, but it is an intervening variable in the relationship between Provincial Minimum Wage and the HDI. The implications of this research are that successful economic policies must integrate increases in Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) and Minimum Wage as primary strategies to reduce poverty levels and enhance the Human Development Index (HDI) in Indonesian provinces. Significant increases in GRDP contribute to poverty reduction by evenly distributing economic benefits to disadvantaged groups. Meanwhile, strengthened Minimum Wage policies can elevate worker incomes, bolster purchasing power, and improve access to education and healthcare, thereby potentially boosting HDI. Prioritising poverty reduction is crucial for enhancing overall quality of life, thereby creating better conditions for economic growth and social welfare at the provincial level    

In Indonesia, conflicts of interest regarding matters of religious education in Indonesia were not unique because the state and community interest groups tend to participate with each other in matters of education. The nation's ideological values and religious principles were interrelated, even experiencing interconnectivity. This conflict only occured in certain sub-sub-communities which had not yet fully reached state policy regarding religious education, where this encourages the politicization of education created by sub-dominant powers if an educational policy was not in accordance with the wishes and interests of the sub-dominant powers. This research aimed to identify and analyze the dynamics of negotiation and accommodation of civil society on Pesantren education policy. This research used a qualitative research approach with a case study method. The results of this research concluded that the involvement of Pesantren Kyai played a role in political interests in history before playing a role in legislative politics as happened in the Pesantren policy. The background to the involvement of Kyai in the Pesantren policy was born from the phenomenon that Kyai enjoyed a high social position since Islam entered Java in carrying out negotiation and accommodation efforts. There were two roles played by Kyai in the legal political constellation of the Pesantren policy. First, the formal role, where in this case the Kyai was a politician who has entered the political system. In this way, Kyai in this case also participates in carrying out party plans and activities, for example serving in the people's representative council, campaigns, work meetings and the like. Second, non-formal roles, in this case the Kyai had more status but then they also tried to approach politics itself. Kyai of this kind, structurally could not be said to be politicians, but socially they had a role in developing political circles.

This research discusses the central role of the Muslim community in resisting colonial powers in the Indonesian archipelago, focusing on colonization by the Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, French, British, and Japanese. Islamic teachings, particularly the concepts of jihad, love for the homeland, and resistance to oppression, played a pivotal role in igniting the spirit of resistance. Islamic Sultanates such as Aceh, Demak, and Mataram actively engaged in the struggle, along with the leadership of scholars and the general population. With low literacy rates, the positive transformations during British colonization were limited in their full utilization by the local communities. Although Japan initially attempted to garner support by claiming liberation, it eventually proved to be a harsh colonizer with forced labor programs. This research employs the library research method to explore the dynamics of Muslim resistance against colonizers by utilizing literary sources.
