This study analyzes the differences between the neoliberal and social democratic paradigms in poverty alleviation policies in Indonesia, by adding an Islamic Economic perspective as an alternative. The neoliberal paradigm focuses on free market mechanisms, deregulation, and minimizing the role of the state, but often exacerbates social inequality. In contrast, the social democratic paradigm balances the role of the market and state intervention through resource redistribution and protection of vulnerable groups through sustainable social programs. Islamic economics offers a complementary approach oriented towards the principles of distributive justice, balance, and solidarity, by integrating spiritual values ​​into socio-economic policies. A qualitative approach is used in this study, with policy analysis of programs such as the Family Hope Program (PKH) and the National Health Insurance (JKN). The results show that the social democratic paradigm is more effective in reducing poverty systemically than neoliberalism, especially through increasing access to education, health, and social protection. However, budget constraints, corruption, and infrastructure gaps remain significant challenges. The Islamic Economic perspective emphasizes the importance of zakat, waqf, and infaq as instruments of wealth redistribution that have the potential to strengthen inclusive and sustainable poverty alleviation policies. This study recommends strengthening the synergy between the paradigm of social democracy and the values ​​of Islamic Economics to create policies that are more effective, equitable, and oriented towards the welfare of society holistically.

This study aims to redesign the superstructure of the Sambungrejo Bridge in Sidoarjo, which has a span length of 16 meters. The Sambungrejo Bridge originally used WF 700.300.15.28 steel girders and C 300.100.10.16.8 diaphragms,that are susceptible to corrosion, especially during floods. The redesign involves replacing the steel girder with a Prestressed Concrete I Girder (PCI Girder) H-900mm, 170mm thick, produced by WIKA Beton, known for its superior corrosion resistance and construction efficiency. The research methodology includes structural analysis using Robot Structural Analysis Professional (RSAP) software, calculation of prestressing forces, and the design of the prestressing cable layout. The results of this study demonstrate that the use of PCI Girder does not reduce the structural dimensions of the bridge but also proves to be more compatible with the flood water conditions at the site. The total cost required for implementing the new bridge superstructure design is Rp. 4.372.201.

This study explores the integration of Islamic epistemology with modern scientific methodologies, proposing a pluralistic epistemic framework that bridges the gap between divine revelation (wahyu), rationality (aql), and empirical knowledge. The research investigates the comparative relationship between traditional Islamic knowledge systems, particularly classical Qur'anic hermeneutics, modern tafsir approaches, and contemporary scientific methods. Traditional Islamic epistemology, grounded in metaphysical and theological frameworks, often emphasizes the separation of spiritual knowledge from empirical science. However, modern scientific methodologies, which prioritize empirical observation and rational inquiry, have created challenges for reconciling Islamic thought with contemporary scientific paradigms. This study identifies common epistemic grounds, such as the use of reason, observation, and the search for truth, as shared goals between Islamic epistemology and modern science. The proposed integrative model of Islamic epistemic pluralism offers a more cohesive and relevant approach to knowledge by acknowledging both spiritual and scientific insights. This model suggests that divine revelation and empirical science can coexist in an inclusive epistemic framework, providing a more comprehensive understanding of reality. The implications of this integrative model for Islamic thought, education, and research are significant, suggesting potential for broader interdisciplinary collaboration and a more holistic approach to addressing modern challenges. The study concludes by calling for further research into practical frameworks for applying Islamic epistemic pluralism across various fields, such as social sciences, engineering, and environmental studies, to contribute to a more inclusive and dynamic global intellectual discourse.

The concept of paradigm in natural sciences was introduced by Thomas Kuhn, who considered that the development of natural science paradigms, occurred in revolutionary way. This means that there is a relationship of mutual replacement between one paradigm and another. Meanwhile, social scientist, such as George Ritzer, consider paradigm not to be those introduced by Thomas Kuhn. Ritzer considers that paradigm in social sciences can be seen in divergent relation (difference views). As the result, difference view of exemplar (various findings recognized in particular paradigm), subject matters (the main issues being studied), theory (explanation or abstraction of phenomena) and methods (the rules for interpret phenomena) can be very diverse and cause debate.
