This study aims to overhaul the conventional understanding of tourism through a missiological lens, by positioning social interactions at the Parbubu Tarutung Soda Water Tourism Object as the locus of Missio Dei (God's Mission) manifestation. Amidst the tendency of modern humans to be trapped in egocentrism, alienation, and minimal openness due to secular routines, God is present with a mission to transform human relations. Using a qualitative descriptive-theological method, this study analyzes three axes of social interaction (inter-tourists, tourists-managers, and tourists-local communities). The results of field research indicate that although the pattern of interaction between visitors is still minimalist and egocentric-group due to a purely physical recreation orientation, there is a strong spiritual modality in the service aspect (hospitality) of the managers that reflects the restoration of the image of God (Imago Dei). The absence of social conflict and the presence of sincere hospitality are identified not merely as business strategies, but as real implications of the work of the Holy Spirit who precedes the church (prevenient grace) in destroying human egoism. This study concludes that tourism can be an eschatological means by which social interactions are transformed into encounters that bring about God's Shalom, meaning that tourism can be a way to bring about God's peace through authentic encounters between tourists, rather than simply ordinary tourist transactions. The author recommends the reconstruction of public spaces in this destination as inclusive communal spaces that facilitate reconciliation and social transformation.

The culture of patronage is a key characteristic of Indonesian political dynamics, having developed from the pre-colonial era to the contemporary democratic era. Despite decentralization and political reforms in Indonesia, patronage practices persist through relationships between political elites, bureaucracy, business actors, and communities, particularly at the local level. This study analyzes patronage using Pierre Bourdieu's Social Practice Theory framework, which emphasizes the interaction between habitus, capital, and the arena as factors shaping social practices. The method used is descriptive qualitative research with data collection techniques through desk studies, which allows researchers to examine various academic literature to build a comprehensive conceptual analysis. The research findings indicate that internalized political habitus, the accumulation of economic, social, cultural, and symbolic capital, and a competitive local political field are key elements in perpetuating patronage. Patronage is not merely a transactional political practice, but a social structure that is continuously reproduced and impacts the politicization of bureaucracy, the strengthening of oligarchy, power inequality, and the vulnerability of the poor to political manipulation. This research confirms that efforts to strengthen democracy in Indonesia require transformation of the political habitus of society, bureaucratic reform, and restrictions on the dominance of economic actors in the political arena to break the entrenched patron-client chain.

This community service program aims to improve public literacy and awareness of the Islamic capital market through socialization and educational activities in Telaga Jernih Village, Secanggang District. Islamic financial literacy in rural areas remains relatively low due to limited access to information and education, leading people to prefer traditional investments such as livestock and plantations. The activity was carried out by the Community Service Program (KKN) team in collaboration with the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) as the main speaker and the village government as a supporting partner. The methods used included observation, counseling, interactive discussions, and simple simulations of Islamic investment practices. The results revealed high enthusiasm among participants, reflected in their active engagement and significant improvement in understanding the concepts, principles, and products of Islamic investment. The community began to realize that Islamic capital market investments are not only halal and safe but also offer long-term economic benefits. This activity positively influenced the community’s mindset to view Islamic financial investment as a complementary form of traditional investment. The program also opened opportunities for forming a village-based Islamic investor community and establishing a financial literacy center as a follow-up initiative. Therefore, this program plays a vital role in strengthening Islamic financial inclusion in rural areas and serves as an initial step toward creating a financially literate, independent, and economically productive society.

This article develops a conceptual model that explains how social capital and digital literacy interact in shaping Islamic financial literacy in the digital era. Through a comprehensive literature review, this study synthesizes theories, empirical findings, and thematic patterns derived from reputable academic journals, scholarly books, and institutional publications. The analysis shows that social capital functions as a value foundation encompassing trust, collective norms, and behavioral orientations that influence individuals’ initial acceptance of sharia-based financial practices. Information obtained through family, religious communities, and social networks becomes a crucial entry point that shapes early perceptions and preferences toward Islamic financial products. Meanwhile, digital literacy strengthens individuals’ ability to access, evaluate, and verify Islamic financial information independently through various digital content such as online articles, infographics, educational videos, and Islamic fintech platforms. The interaction between these two dimensions creates a layered learning process in which social capital provides contextual value and trust, while digital literacy deepens technical understanding in a more objective manner. This article contributes theoretically by proposing the Social Capital–Digital Literacy Integrative Model and offers practical implications for Islamic financial institutions, regulators, and fintech providers in designing more effective strategies to enhance Islamic financial literacy in society.

One of the most common problems that occurs for MSMEs is in their development. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to business performance in order to be able to survive and excel in competition. This study aims to test the influence of human resource competence, financial literacy, financial capital, and social capital on the performance of MSMEs in Tempel District, both partially and simultaneously. The research approach uses a quantitative method with questionnaire instruments distributed to 99 respondents of MSME actors through non-probability sampling techniques. Data analysis was carried out using the SEM-PLS method with the help of SmartPLS 4.1.0.9 software, through outer model testing (validity and reliability test) and inner model (VIF, GoF, R2 test and hypothesis test). Hypothesis testing is carried out through the t-test and the f-test. The results of the study show that partially human resource competence, financial literacy, and financial capital have a significant positive effect on the performance of MSMEs, while social capital has a positive but insignificant effect on the performance of MSMEs. The results of the research simultaneously show that human resource competencies, financial literacy, financial capital, and social capital have a significant effect on the performance of MSMEs. The implications of these findings emphasize the need for strategies to strengthen human resource competence, increase financial literacy, optimize financial capital, and develop social capital to strengthen the competitiveness and sustainability of MSMEs in the research area.

This study examines the concept of ukhuwah (brotherhood) from the perspective of the Qur’an as the foundation of social capital in Islam. Social capital in modern social theory is understood as networks, norms, and trust that strengthen collaboration between individuals and groups. In Islam, the spiritual foundation has been embedded through the value of ukhuwah. This research uses the library method with a thematic exegesis (mawdhu’i) approach to analyze the Qur’anic verses related to ukhuwah and link them to modern social capital theory. The findings show that ukhuwah plays an important role in cultivating trust (trust capital), strengthening socio-economic networks (network capital), and promoting fair economic distribution. Therefore, ukhuwah serves as a conceptual foundation for Islamic social capital, which is not only relevant in facing contemporary economic challenges but also supports equitable and sustainable economic development for the community. This study provides an understanding that Islamic social capital, built through ukhuwah, can be a solution for creating social justice and sustainable prosperity in society.

ABSTRAK Ketahanan nasional menghadapi tantangan baru seiring dengan meningkatnya ancaman radikalisme dan terorisme di Indonesia. Dalam konteks ini, kearifan lokal berpotensi menjadi modal sosial yang efektif dalam memperkuat strategi pencegahan terorisme berbasis sosial-budaya. Penelitian ini menganalisis peran kearifan lokal dalam membangun ketahanan nasional melalui mekanisme preventif dan adaptif terhadap radikalisme. Menggunakan metode studi literatur sistematis dengan pendekatan kualitatif, studi ini mengidentifikasi nilai-nilai lokal seperti gotong royong , siri' na pacce , dan pela gandong yang berkontribusi dalam memperkuat ketahanan sosial. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa integrasi kearifan lokal ke dalam kebijakan keamanan menciptakan sinergi antara pemerintah, lembaga keamanan, dan masyarakat, serta pergeseran paradigma keamanan dari yang berorientasi negara (state -centric ) menjadi berbasis masyarakat ( society-centric ). Selain itu, kearifan lokal berperan sebagai fondasi cultural resilience dengan memperkuat kohesi sosial dan identitas inklusif. Namun, pendekatan implementasi ini menghadapi beberapa tantangan, seperti resistensi generasi muda, politisasi identitas, dan bias gender. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini merekomendasikan penguatan kelembagaan adat, pengembangan indeks ketahanan budaya, serta adaptasi kreatif melalui digitalisasi konten lokal. Dengan demikian, pendekatan berbasis budaya dapat menjadi strategi transformatif dalam mewujudkan keamanan berkelanjutan (sustainable security).

This study aims to explain the strength of social capital owned by Nurdin in political contestation in 2016. This type of research is a descriptive qualitative study to explore the strength of social capital in the transformation of village head leadership. Meanwhile, the approach used is the phenomenological approach The results of this study indicate that the previous leadership style that the author limits only captures the leadership style for the period 2002-2009. During the 2002-2004 period, when Karaeng Oddang was in charge, in his leadership he tried to be more democratic, but the domination of his father (Karaeng Manna) was still strong at that time. Likewise with Aji Awaluddin 's karaeng leadership style, he was a typical leader who was considered by the community to be very good and realized democratic values ​​during his tenure as head of Kindang village for the 2004-2009 period. In 2009-2016, this was where leadership transformation took place. Photographing Nurdin's leadership style for the period of 2009 cannot be separated from appreciation and praise. However, this criticism did not have an impact on the 2016 village head election. Nurdin won the pilkades again.  Nurdin's strength of social capital in the election has won him victory. The rise of primordial sentiment among ordinary people (tumaradeka) as Nurdin's strength, and on the other hand the rise of negative stereotypes against karaeng that spread to the issue of group identity and the strong strength of social networking capital, bonding, bridging and linking greatly colored the 2016 pilakdes. Social capital security control is a selling point for Nurdin so that he can get support from the community compared to other candidates who are deemed unfit and unable to anticipate security in Kindang village.

Industri peternakan memiliki kontribusi penting dalam mendukung perekonomian nasional serta penyediaan protein hewani. Kambing merupakan salah satu komoditas ternak potensial yang banyak dibudidayakan masyarakat pedesaan, termasuk di Desa Besowo, Kecamatan Kepung, Kabupaten Kediri. Namun, keterbatasan sarana, pengetahuan teknis, dan pola pemeliharaan tradisional masih menjadi kendala dalam meningkatkan kinerja peternak kambing. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh modal sosial terhadap kinerja peternak kambing. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kuantitatif dengan teknik analisis regresi untuk mengukur hubungan antara variabel modal sosial (norma, jaringan, kepercayaan, dan hubungan timbal balik) dengan kinerja peternak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa modal sosial peternak kambing di Desa Besowo relatif baik, tercermin dari adanya praktik titip ternak, penggunaan fasilitas bersama, hingga kegiatan kelompok ternak. Kinerja peternak cenderung masih tradisional, dengan pola pemeliharaan dan pemberian pakan bergantung pada kondisi alam serta usaha ternak yang dijalankan sebagai profesi sampingan. Analisis regresi menghasilkan nilai koefisien determinasi (R²) sebesar 53,7%, yang mengindikasikan bahwa modal sosial berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kinerja peternak kambing. Hal ini menegaskan bahwa penguatan modal sosial dapat membantu mengatasi keterbatasan teknis dan sarana prasarana, sekaligus meningkatkan keberlanjutan usaha peternakan kambing.
