This study examines the implementation of religious freedom in Indonesia, focusing on the case of the sealing of the POUK Tesalonika House of Prayer in Teluknaga, Tangerang Regency, in April 2026. This incident reflects the tension between administrative regulations, specifically the Building Permit, and the constitutional right to freedom of religion as guaranteed in Article 28E and Article 29(2) of the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This study employs a normative legal method with legislative,conceptual, and case-based approaches. The analysis reveals that the sealing action fails to meet the principle of proportionality in administrative law, and results in legal discrimination that contradicts the principle of equality before the law and the spirit of Pancasila. These findings affirm that the right to worship is a non-derogable right that cannot be diminished by technical permitting regulations. Therefore, the state must prioritize a facilitative and protective approach in regulating places of worship, to guarantee freedom of religion and uphold Indonesia’s integrity as a democratic and tolerant rule of law state.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis implementasi strategi manajemen kesiswaan berbasis nilai Kristiani serta kontribusinya terhadap pembentukan karakter peserta didik dalam lingkungan pendidikan multikultural di SDS Unity Primary School. Latar belakang penelitian ini didasarkan pada meningkatnya kompleksitas keberagaman di lingkungan sekolah yang menuntut adanya pengelolaan peserta didik yang tidak hanya berorientasi administratif, tetapi juga mampu membangun sikap toleransi, penghargaan terhadap perbedaan, dan karakter yang kuat. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan metode studi kasus. Data diperoleh melalui observasi partisipatif, wawancara, dan analisis dokumentasi sekolah, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan kerangka SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa manajemen kesiswaan di SDS Unity Primary School diimplementasikan melalui integrasi nilai-nilai Kristiani, seperti kasih, integritas, tanggung jawab, kerendahan hati, dan pelayanan ke dalam berbagai kebijakan dan program kesiswaan. Keberagaman peserta didik yang terdiri atas berbagai agama dan etnis dikelola melalui pendekatan inklusif yang mendorong interaksi lintas budaya dan lintas agama. Analisis SWOT menunjukkan bahwa identitas spiritual sekolah, program pembinaan rohani, kegiatan ekstrakurikuler, serta dukungan orang tua menjadi kekuatan utama dalam pembentukan karakter peserta didik. Di sisi lain, keterbatasan pembina rohani dan tantangan sekularisasi menjadi faktor yang perlu diantisipasi. Temuan penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa harmonisasi program kerohanian, ekstrakurikuler, dan program anti-perundungan berbasis pendekatan restoratif berkontribusi terhadap terciptanya iklim sekolah yang aman, toleran, dan harmonis. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa strategi manajemen kesiswaan berbasis nilai Kristiani efektif mendukung pembentukan karakter peserta didik serta dapat menjadi model pengelolaan pendidikan multikultural yang inklusif dan berorientasi pada pengembangan karakter secara holistik.

This study aims to examine the implementation of the selapanan tradition among Javanese postpartum women in Limau Manis Village, and to understand the meaning and community perceptions of this practice in the context of modern life. The selapanan tradition is part of local wisdom that has been passed down from generation to generation and has important value in postpartum maternal care. This study uses a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, which allows researchers to understand cultural practices in depth through direct interaction with the community. Data collection techniques include participant observation, in-depth interviews with mothers who practice the tradition, community leaders, and traditional birth attendants, as well as documentation and field notes. The results show that selapanan is still preserved and practiced by the people of Limau Manis Village, although it has undergone several forms of adaptation to modern developments and modern medical guidelines. In its implementation, this tradition uses various natural ingredients such as parem (traditional body scrub), pilis (forehead concoction to refresh the eyes and mind), bengkungan (cloth to wrap the stomach), gerita (a kind of stagen or body binder), and the consumption of herbal medicine as part of physical care and body recovery. In addition to its physical aspects, selapanan also has a psychological dimension, providing emotional comfort and social support to postpartum mothers, thereby helping to prevent psychological disorders such as baby blues syndrome. This tradition serves not only as a form of traditional healthcare but also as a symbol of social solidarity and respect for local cultural values. Amidst the tide of modernization, preserving selapanan is crucial as a cultural identity that remains relevant. This study concludes that despite adjustments to medical developments, the selapanan tradition continues to play a significant role in maintaining maternal well-being and strengthening Javanese cultural values in the modern era.

Ethnic and cultural diversity in modern society has become increasingly complex due to the influences of globalization, urbanization, and migration, resulting in multicultural communities. This diversity, while offering opportunities for mutual understanding, often gives rise to tensions, prejudices, and even conflicts between groups, especially when cultural identities are contested. In such circumstances, religion plays a significant role as a social pillar that can embrace differences. However, if applied exclusively, religion also has the potential to become a source of conflict. Therefore, inclusive theology, which prioritizes acceptance of differences without compromising religious teachings, becomes a relevant solution to bridge these tensions. Inclusive theology not only encourages intercultural dialogue but also promotes peace and solidarity by emphasizing love, tolerance, and respect for the dignity of every individual. In the context of the church, inclusive theology serves as an agent of peace actively addressing issues of ethnic discrimination and cultural injustice. This study aims to explore the application of inclusive theology in responding to ethnic and cultural conflicts in multicultural societies, using a qualitative approach and Ricoeur's hermeneutic analysis. It is expected that this research will contribute to fostering harmony and reconciliation amidst existing diversity.

Racial discrimination and violence against minority communities is prohibited by law, and the protection of minority groups is guaranteed by the Constitution, national laws, as well as international laws or conventions ratified by Indonesia, such as the ICCPR and ICERD. However, cases of violence involving ethnic Papuans are often ignored by the state, even though this is a violation of human rights. This research will use a normative juridical approach by presenting and analyzing the validity of statutory provisions. The socio-legal study in this research will be carried out by analyzing social studies, multidisciplinary social science theories related to the phenomenon of racial discrimination against ethnic Papuans, such as psychology in looking at prejudice and discrimination; Communication Studies; Social Integration and Disintegration Theory; and Social Conflict Theory. The aim of this research is to examine law enforcement using a social science paradigm. This research will review the quality of law enforcement, the extent to which these rules are enforced, and the extent to which law enforcement and the government can fulfill citizens' rights not to be discriminated against. This research shows that discrimination against the Papuan people is caused by racial discrimination in various aspects, including economics, politics, education and law enforcement. The application of anti- discrimination laws must be based on the professionalism of law enforcement officials so as not to give rise to new discrimination in law enforcement. This research recommends that the Indonesian Government increase political will in enforcing anti-discrimination and violence laws in all cases, especially against the Papuan ethnic group. Maximum anti-discrimination law enforcement efforts are needed to realize human rights goals, namely the provision, enforcement and protection of human rights.

By enacting legislation to protect, maintain and monitor the importance of human rights. Discrimination refers to unfair or unequal treatment of a person or group based on certain characteristics.Such as injustice regarding race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or disability. This usually occurs in environments such as education, health services, residence and in social interactions. Ethnic discrimination occurs when individuals or groups are judged based on their ethnic origin, which includes cultural identity, language, or national origin. This ethnic discrimination can lead to unequal treatment in terms of economic opportunities, access to health services, or unfair treatment by related institutions. In Indonesia, racial and ethnic discrimination is also a problem faced, although in a different context from other countries. Even though Indonesia has rich cultural, linguistic and ethnic diversity, there are still challenges in ensuring fair treatment for all citizens. Several ethnic minority groups in Indonesia may face various obstacles in terms of access to quality education, decent work and adequate health services.
