This study aims to analyze the reconceptualization of national security in the digital era through the case of the 2021 Facebook data breach involving 533 million users across 106 countries. As digital technologies become increasingly integrated into governance, economic activities, and social interactions, cyber threats have emerged as a significant challenge to contemporary security frameworks. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using library research methods, drawing upon academic literature, official reports, and relevant policy documents. The findings indicate that national security has evolved from a traditional military-centered concept toward a broader and multidimensional framework that includes cyber threats as a form of non-traditional security challenge. The Facebook data breach demonstrates how cyber threats transcend geographical boundaries, involve complex attribution problems, and generate multidimensional impacts on individuals, societies, economies, and states. Through the lens of Securitization Theory developed by Buzan, Wæver, and de Wilde (1998), the incident illustrates how data security has become securitized as a matter of national and international concern. Furthermore, the Human Security framework proposed by UNDP (1994) highlights the vulnerability of individuals whose personal information becomes exposed in the digital environment. This study concludes that cybersecurity should be recognized as a fundamental pillar of national security in the digital age, requiring comprehensive strategies that integrate technological resilience, data protection regulations, human resource development, and international cooperation.

This research is very important to understand more deeply about the Islamic-based multicultural education approach in forming a character of tolerance, as well as how to apply this approach in the educational environment. This research uses a qualitative approach with the type of literature study (library research). This approach is used to examine in depth the concept of multicultural education in an Islamic perspective and introduce it in forming the character of tolerance of students through the analysis of various relevant library sources. Multicultural education basically aims to create a harmonious society through an educational process that respects differences and eliminates discrimination. In this case, multicultural education is a strategic solution because it does not only focus on cognitive aspects, but also on the formation of social attitudes, such as tolerance, empathy, and inclusive attitudes. In its implementation, multicultural education aims to enable students to appreciate differences, foster a tolerant attitude, and strengthen national identity within the framework of diversity. Therefore, the application of multicultural education needs to continue to be developed optimally in the education system in order to create a harmonious, inclusive, and character-based learning enviroment.

This study examines the strategic role of management psychology in enhancing educational institution quality through optimizing teacher performance.

Results indicate that psychological factors such as work motivation, mental well-being, supportive leadership, and conducive work climate significantly shape teachers' behaviors and performance, fostering effective and sustainable learning environments. Integrating management psychology principles proves essential for holistic human resource management in education, offering practical implications for school leaders' policies to build high-quality educational systems. In addition, the study emphasizes that consistent professional development and emotional support systems for teachers further strengthen institutional effectiveness and improve instructional outcomes. Therefore, management psychology serves as a fundamental framework in aligning organizational goals with teacher well-being and performance enhancement in educational settings.

This study aims to examine and review the impact of language learning through text-based methods on the cognitive abilities of elementary school students. The research approach used is a qualitative study with the main instrument being the researcher, and supporting instruments including observation, interviews, and documentation of student learning outcomes at the elementary school level. Research data was obtained from various library sources, such as books, scientific articles, national and international journals, and other relevant scientific works related to text-based learning and student cognitive development. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of Indonesian language learning with text-based methods has a diverse impact on students. Differences in learning outcomes are not only influenced by the strategies and learning processes implemented by teachers, but are also closely related to students' cognitive abilities in understanding, interpreting, and processing information from Indonesian texts. Thus, text-based methods need to be adapted to the characteristics and levels of students' cognitive abilities so that learning objectives can be optimally achieved.

This study aims to analyze the short story “Siapakah Keluarga dari Tubuh yang Kacau Itu?” by Radja Sinaga using structural and moral approaches in order to obtain a comprehensive understanding of its content and meaning. The structural approach is employed to examine intrinsic elements, including theme, characters and characterization, plot, setting, point of view, language style, and message. Meanwhile, the moral approach is used to reveal the ethical values and life lessons contained in the short story. This study applies a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through library research by means of intensive reading and systematic note-taking of the text. The results show that the short story demonstrates a strong structural unity, with the main theme focusing on human suffering caused by war and the loss of family. In addition, several moral values are identified, such as humanity, familial love, criticism of violence, loss of identity, and resilience in facing suffering. The use of the second-person point of view also strengthens the reader’s emotional engagement with the story. Therefore, the combination of structural and moral approaches provides a deeper understanding of the meaning of the short story and its relevance to real-life contexts. This study is expected to enrich literary studies and enhance readers’ appreciation of literary works.

This literature study aims to analyze the strategies of local cosmetic brands in providing product variants for different skin types, setting affordable prices for the teenage segment, and minimizing side effect risks to increase purchase intention among beginner users. The method used is qualitative library research with a thematic synthesis approach following systematic literature review procedures. The results indicate that complete product variants enable beginner users to find products suitable for their skin conditions, reducing confusion and increasing confidence. Affordable prices are crucial for the teenage segment with limited budgets, allowing them to try products without excessive financial burden. Minimizing side effect risks through safe formulations, dermatological testing, ingredient transparency, and usage education builds a sense of security essential for beginner users. These three strategies are interconnected and collectively create a foundation of trust that drives purchase intention. Beginner users who feel their needs are understood, products are affordable, and risks are minimal will be more motivated to purchase and have the potential to become long-term loyal customers. This study contributes theoretically to enriching cosmetic marketing literature with a teenage and beginner user segmentation perspective and practically provides foundations for local brands in designing products, pricing strategies, and safety communications targeting this segment.

This study aims to analyze the protection of victims of sexual violence crimes from a victimology perspective within Indonesian criminal law. This research employs a normative legal method with a qualitative approach, utilizing statutory and conceptual approaches. Data were collected through library research based on legislation and recent scientific journals published between 2021 and 2026. The results indicate that, normatively, Indonesia has established a relatively strong legal framework, particularly with the enactment of Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Sexual Violence Crimes. However, its implementation remains constrained by several challenges, including limited capacity of law enforcement officials, weak inter-institutional coordination, and structural and cultural factors such as patriarchal culture and victim blaming practices. Furthermore, victims are still at risk of experiencing revictimization during the criminal justice process. From a victimology perspective, this condition reflects that the Indonesian criminal justice system is still in a transitional phase toward victim-oriented justice. Therefore, strengthening the victimological approach through comprehensive legal reform, enhancing the professionalism of law enforcement officers, and transforming legal culture in society are essential to ensure effective and substantive justice for victims.

This study aims to examine the contributions of A.M. Sangaji to the field of education during the period of 1922–1949 within the broader context of anti-colonial struggle. This research employs a qualitative method with a historical approach, involving the stages of heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. Data sources are derived from library research, including books, scholarly articles, and relevant historical documents. The findings reveal that A.M. Sangaji’s contributions to education were closely intertwined with his political and social activism within Sarekat Islam. He actively established Qur’anic teaching centers and educational institutions, particularly in East Kalimantan, aimed at enhancing intellectual and religious awareness among indigenous communities. Furthermore, his role as a writer and orator significantly influenced the development of national consciousness and resistance against colonial rule. His integrity, ideas, and commitment to education highlight his substantial role in the history of Indonesian education. This study concludes that A.M. Sangaji’s contributions extended beyond formal education to encompass social, political, and religious education oriented toward the liberation of society from colonial oppression. Therefore, A.M. Sangaji deserves recognition as both an educational figure and a national hero, with enduring relevance for contemporary educational development.

English learning at the elementary school level plays an important role in developing students’ early language competence, particularly in listening skills as the foundation for other language abilities. However, many learning processes still rely on conventional teaching methods that do not fully accommodate the developmental characteristics of young learners, resulting in limited engagement and listening comprehension. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the role of storytelling in improving English listening skills among elementary school students and to identify effective implementation strategies in classroom learning. This research employs a library research method by reviewing and analyzing various relevant literature sources, including books, scientific journals, and previous research findings related to storytelling in English language learning. The analysis shows that storytelling contributes significantly to improving students’ listening comprehension, vocabulary acquisition, attention, and learning motivation. Through structured narratives, expressive delivery, and the support of visual media, storytelling creates a contextual and meaningful learning environment that helps students understand spoken English more effectively. The findings also indicate that the effectiveness of storytelling is closely related to the developmental characteristics of elementary school students who learn better through concrete, imaginative, and engaging experiences. Furthermore, the implementation of storytelling through systematic stages pre-listening, while-listening, and post-listening can enhance students participation and comprehension during the learning process. In conclusion, storytelling can be considered an effective instructional strategy for improving English listening skills among elementary school students while also supporting vocabulary development and creating an engaging learning atmosphere.

The flash flood disaster that hit Indonesia, including the devastating disaster in three Sumatran provinces in November-December 2025 which resulted in more than 900 casualties and trillions of rupiah in losses, shows a strong correlation between environmental damage caused by corporate activities and increased disaster risk. The purpose of this study is to analyze corporate criminal liability for environmental damage resulting in flash flood disasters based on the Environmental Management Law (UU PPLH), examine the mechanism for proving corporate criminal liability, and evaluate the application of criminal sanctions against corporations that commit environmental damage resulting in flash flood disasters. The research method used is normative legal research with a descriptive analytical statute approach. Data collection techniques are carried out through library research and interviews with sources at the North Sumatra Provincial Environmental Service. The data obtained were analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that: First, corporate criminal liability for environmental damage resulting in flash floods has been comprehensively regulated in Articles 116 to 120 of the Environmental Management and Management Law, which recognizes corporations as subjects of criminal law and regulates the criteria for corporate crimes (committed by, for, or on behalf of a business entity), the responsible party (the business entity and/or the person giving the order/leader of the activity), a one-third aggravation of the sentence, and corporate representation in court, as reinforced by Supreme Court Regulation Number 13 of 2016. The conclusion of this study is that the Environmental Management and Management Law has provided a comprehensive legal framework for corporate criminal liability for environmental damage resulting in flash floods. However, the effectiveness of law enforcement still needs to be improved through accelerating the judicial process, strengthening the capacity of law enforcement, improving inter-agency coordination, and strengthening the decision execution mechanism.

This study examines Ad-Dakhil in Tafsir Al-Azhar by Buya Hamka, focusing on Israiliyyat narrations found in the interpretation of Qur’anic narrative verses in Juz 1–10. The research is motivated by the position of Israiliyyat as a form of infiltration (ad-dakhil) in Qur’anic exegesis that may affect the objectivity of interpretation, particularly in contemporary tafsir works. This study aims to identify the distribution of Israiliyyat narrations, classify their thematic patterns, and determine the status of each narration based on the critical framework of ad-dakhil fi at-tafsir. This research employs a qualitative library-based approach. The primary source is Tafsir Al-Azhar by Buya Hamka (Gema Insani, 2017), supported by classical and contemporary tafsir literature as well as scholarly works on Israiliyyat. Data were analyzed using the theory of ad-dakhil fi at-tafsir, classifying narrations into three categories: accepted (maqbul), rejected (mardud), and suspended (tawaqquf). The findings reveal seventeen Israiliyyat narrations scattered throughout Juz 1–10, originating from the Old Testament, the New Testament, Wahb bin Munabbih, ‘Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud, and Tafsir Ibn Kathir. These narrations fall into nine major themes, including the creation and origin of humanity, the story of Prophet Adam and his descendants, Prophet Ibrahim, Prophet Ya‘qub, Prophet Musa and Bani Israil, Prophet Sulaiman, Prophet Zakariya, Prophet ‘Isa and his people, as well as accounts of previous nations. Of these seventeen narrations, eleven are classified as rejected (mardud), five as tawaqquf, and one as accepted (maqbul). These results emphasize the necessity of critical engagement with Israiliyyat narrations in tafsir literature to preserve the integrity of Qur’anic interpretation.

The success of Guidance and Counseling services relies heavily on adherence to fundamental principles such as confidentiality and voluntariness, yet field implementation faces complex challenges regarding educational levels and modern developments. This study aims to analyze the implementation of fundamental guidance and counseling principles and their relevance to religious value integration and technology adaptation. The method used is qualitative with a library research design, analyzing 20 scientific journal articles published between 2020 and 2025. The results show that the implementation of principles is dynamic. At the elementary level, the expertise principle is hindered by classroom teachers doubling roles, while secondary levels face service management challenges. Current relevance is realized through adapting the principle of currentness with web-based technology and the principle of normativeness through Islamic approaches. This study implies the need for strengthening counselor digital competence and providing professional personnel at the elementary level to ensure service integrity.

Education in Indonesia continues to face significant challenges in transforming its curriculum to meet 21st-century competency demands, especially with the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, which emphasizes flexibility, contextual learning, and a student-centered approach. This study aims to analyze teachers’ roles in implementing student-centered learning, identify the challenges they encounter, and examine strategies used to address these obstacles. Using a qualitative library research method, the study reviews primary and secondary literature related to student-centered learning theory, learning experiences, authentic assessment, and the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. Findings show that teachers serve as the central factor in ensuring the success of active and student-centered learning. Those who are adaptive and innovative are able to design meaningful learning experiences even when confronted with limited facilities, diverse student needs, and classroom management constraints. Nevertheless, many teachers still struggle with differentiated instruction, authentic assessment, and the flexible learning management required by the Merdeka Curriculum. This study underscores the need to improve teachers’ pedagogical competence, provide sufficient learning resources, and develop responsive educational policies to strengthen the overall implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in schools.

Facilities and infrastructure are essential components in the provision of education, functioning to support the effectiveness of teaching and learning processes, student comfort, and the achievement of quality learning outcomes. In boarding-based Islamic schools (madrasah), facility needs become more complex due to the integration of formal academic curricula with religious instruction and a full residential system. The National Education Standards (SNP) serve as the national reference for the fulfillment of educational facilities in Indonesia; however, the standards do not specifically regulate boarding facilities, resulting in a gap in facility fulfillment among pesantren-based madrasah. This study aims to evaluate the suitability of educational facilities and infrastructure at MTsS Sunanul Husna, South Tangerang City, with the SNP and to identify inhibiting factors affecting the fulfillment of such standards. The research employed a qualitative case study design through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted using interactive procedures, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that academic facilities are categorized as adequate, with classrooms, teacher rooms, administrative offices, computer laboratories, and a UKS room available and functioning, although the library and student sanitation facilities require improvement. Boarding facilities such as dormitories, worship areas, and kitchen facilities are categorized as good, despite not being covered in the SNP. The study reveals that financial limitations, centralized authority at the foundation level, and the absence of national standards for boarding education represent the main inhibiting factors. The study implies the need for the formulation of facility standards specifically for boarding madrasah and for strengthened collaboration among the government, foundations, and communities in fulfilling educational infrastructure.

This study analyzes the juridical implications of delegated authority in the context of business license signing by heads of regional offices acting on behalf of regents. Using a qualitative approach with library research, the paper explores the legal foundation, validity, and administrative consequences of delegation within local governance. The findings indicate that delegation of authority is a legitimate administrative mechanism recognized under Indonesian law, particularly within Law No. 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government. However, its implementation frequently lacks procedural clarity, leading to potential legal defects (ultra vires) in administrative decisions. The study emphasizes that the validity of business permits depends on both formal and substantive fulfillment of delegation requirements through explicit legal instruments such as regional head decrees. Improper delegation not only invalidates administrative acts but also undermines legal certainty and public trust in local governance. Theoretically, this research contributes to strengthening the doctrine of state administrative legality, while practically, it provides recommendations for standardizing delegation mechanisms to enhance transparency, accountability, and legal compliance in regional public service delivery.

In social life, buying and selling are fundamental mechanisms for transferring rights, beginning with an agreement. According to Articles 1313 and 1338 of the Indonesian Civil Code, agreements are legally binding acts with the force of law for the parties involved. One high-value transaction is the sale and purchase of apartment units, which involves developers as sellers. In practice, developers often fail to deliver units within the agreed timeframe. This study examines (1) the developer’s responsibility toward buyers when units are not delivered and (2) the legal protection available for buyers under such circumstances. The research applies Hans Kelsen’s Theory of Responsibility and Satjipto Rahardjo’s Theory of Legal Protection, using a normative juridical method based on library research. Primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials were analyzed through statutory, conceptual, analytical, and case approaches, employing grammatical and systematic interpretation, legal analogy, and legal refinement. Findings reveal that developers are primarily responsible for delivering fully paid units. Failure to fulfill this obligation, due to breach of contract or negligence, triggers legal liability in the form of performance or compensation. Legal protection for buyers ensures their rights are safeguarded, and even in cases of developer negligence or bankruptcy, consumers are legally entitled to receive the apartment units they have purchased.

This study aims to analyze the dynamics of interfaith relations in Indonesia by integrating Social Identity Theory (SIT), Social Identity Complexity (SIC), and Pope Francis’ vision of synodality. The focus is directed toward understanding how social identity categories, overlapping identity structures, and the synodal vision of communion, participation, and mission enrich the paradigm of religious moderation in a plural society. This research employs a qualitative library research design using descriptive-analytical and content analysis techniques on identity theories, empirical findings on interfaith tolerance, and relevant Catholic Church documents. The analysis includes an exploration of the core concepts of SIT and SIC, a review of interfaith tolerance practices in Indonesian communities, and an examination of the pastoral significance of synodality as a dialogical approach. The findings indicate that religious moderation can flourish when religious communities have natural spaces of encounter, develop flexible identity intersections, and engage actively in mutual listening as emphasized in the Synod 2021–2024. In this context, synodality provides a theological and pastoral framework for cultivating inclusive, creative, and transformative interfaith relations, allowing each religious tradition to express its uniqueness while fostering fraternal harmony.

The position of judges in the process of proving civil cases occupies a fundamental role in upholding justice and legal certainty within the Indonesian judicial system. This study aims to examine the judge’s position, duties, and authority in the evidentiary process of civil cases through a literature review focusing on doctrines and jurisprudence. Using a normative juridical method with a library research approach, this paper analyzes legal theories, statutory provisions, and judicial precedents that regulate evidentiary procedures in civil law. The findings show that a judge is not merely a passive law enforcer but an active truth-seeker who must interpret and assess evidence based on principles of fairness, propriety, and moral values. The judge’s discretion in evaluating evidence reflects the responsibility to harmonize formal legal norms with the pursuit of substantive justice. Jurisprudence demonstrates that judges play an essential role in shaping evidentiary standards and ensuring that court decisions reflect the ideals of justice and legal certainty. The study concludes that the authority and independence of judges are crucial in realizing a fair trial, as they ensure that decisions are based on verified facts, logical reasoning, and moral responsibility. Strengthening the professionalism and integrity of judges is necessary to guarantee that the evidentiary process in civil proceedings fulfills the principles of equality before the law and promotes justice in society. 

This research is motivated by the shift in the meaning of modern education which tends to emphasize cognitive and materialistic aspects, while the spiritual and moral dimensions are increasingly marginalized. The purpose of this research is to reinterpret the nature of education , learning , and schooling from an Islamic educational perspective through a conceptual analysis of the integration of spiritual and scientific values. The research method used is qualitative with a library research approach , using secondary data obtained from various classical and contemporary literature related to Islamic educational philosophy. The results show that Islamic education views education as a process of forming manners and divine awareness, learning as a spiritual and intellectual journey towards divine truth, and schooling as a space of civilization that unites knowledge, faith, and charity. The integration of spiritual and scientific values is the main foundation in the development of a holistic and civilized Islamic education system, so that it is able to produce knowledgeable, faithful, and noble human beings in accordance with the true purpose of Islamic education.
