This is compounded by the fact that plastic is difficult to decompose, requiring hundreds of years of time. This, in the concept of a risk society is called the boomerang effect, because something that existed in the industrial era was created as a form of innovation that exists as a solution, but in the modern era like now it has become a separate risk for the surrounding community. For various phenomena as a result of the creation of plastic itself, society does not necessarily let them slowly be swallowed up by existing risks, but there are many efforts to create innovations as a way to protect themselves from various risks distributed by production and the increasingly widespread use of plastic in today's reality.

This study examines the genealogical transformation of the Neosufi order in Indonesia, focusing on the shift from a private-ritual institution to an active and open social movement in the public space. Through a qualitative approach based on literature study and hermeneutic analysis, this paper highlights how the Qadiriyah Naqsyabandiyah Order (TQN) Suryalaya represents a new form of Sufism that combines spiritual depth with collective social action. This transformation is seen in various fields, ranging from drug rehabilitation, Islamic boarding school education, to spirituality-based economic empowerment. The order is no longer just a space for contemplation, but also plays a role in the process of social reconciliation, moral advocacy, and expansion into the public space through digital media. However, this dynamic also raises genealogical problems in the form of spiritual symbolization by the state, co-optation of power, and ambiguity in the interpretation of modernity. Indonesian Neosufism is a contextual response to spiritual and social crises, as well as a field of negotiation between the legacy of tradition, the demands of modernity, and the structure of state power. This study is a development of the author's dissertation and academic book manuscript that is being prepared for publication, thus presenting theoretical and practical contributions to the study of Sufism and social development.
