Indonesia is facing two strategic issues concerning religion and its relation to Pancasila as the state ideology; radicalism in the name of religion (Islam) and Islamism movement to replace state ideology with caliphate. In response, the government uses hard power (repressive approach) and soft power (preventive efforts) through de-radicalization policy. However, it has not been able to eliminate radicalism threat yet because of lack of civil society involvement. This article offers a collaboration model to make de-radicalization policy to be more optimal to implement so that these would no longer be a serious issue in Indonesia. Pesantren with salafiyyah-aswaja typology is positioned to be a subject because of its great influence on government policy. The design of this study was a descriptive qualitative research in which the data were collected through interviews and observations in five big pesantrens in Lampung province. The result showed that the relationships between government and pesantrens tends to be constructive pattern which in turn pesantrens are not well developed and the determining aspects of collaboration are not fully identified. The core of this model is that the collaboration success in a policy is influenced by some factors such as good initial condition, consultative institution design, leadership facilitation, mutually actors’ preferences, and policy contents that are substantially well understood by collaborators

China’s trajectory over recent years displays a shift in its public diplomacy from traditional coercive measures under hard power toward a combination of both hard and soft power. As soft power signifies the diplomatic ability of a nation to attract others by projecting its internal values and policies, China has taken significant steps within the course of its political history to transition from an isolated authoritarian regime into a more engaged global stakeholder. In addition to analyzing China’s soft power and obligations within a global context, an internal examination of China’s public diplomacy is also required as the nature of the regime often serves to limit its capabilities in further attracting global actors. As China remains an authoritarian regime, activities related to public diplomacy are largely reserved for the state actors, including officials and state-owned enterprises. Although China has successfully shifted more towards practicing soft power from traditional hard power, areas of concern remain regarding its development, including a lack of attractiveness towards developed nations and limited use of civil society. China’s diplomatic agenda includes identifying methods for extending its soft power towards developed and developing countries.

This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of Pela Gandong in the process of social reconciliation and peacebuilding in Ambon. Using a sociocultural approach, this qualitative research attempted to examine the theory of social reconciliation in the peace-building process between two conflicting groups. The data that had been collected in the form of interviews, FGDs, and documentation sources related to pela gandong were qualitatively analyzed. The results of the research showed that structural segregation becomes a barrier to the process of social reconciliation because some communities and local elites still maintained inter-group beliefs about the existence of a common enemy due to past conflicts. Pela gandong played a role in strengthening social reconciliation amid actor antagonisms that were difficult to subside, factions among local elites that were still strong, and people who were still trapped in past traumas. Based on the spirit of pela gandong, the government and civil society, including educational institutions in Ambon, presented a peaceful atmosphere with various initiatives, starting from the formation of multi-ethnic villages, providing facilities and infrastructure for harmony, strengthening the curriculum for local wisdom "Pela Gandong" and “Pendidikan Orang Basudara” (POB), to strengthening interfaith mediation institutions in Maluku: Baku Bae, Maluku Interfaith Institution, and Maluku Interfaith Institution for Humanitarian Action. All of them were an effort to create a peaceful Ambon, make Maluku a laboratory for peace, a learning medium for other regions in Indonesia.

The features of the “soft” power of the PRC, which are significantly based on its indicators of "hard" power – economic and military power, – have been studied. It is noted that there is a difference in the assessment of the state of “soft” power of China by Western countries and, accordingly, by China itself. Emphasis was placed on the prospects for the embodiment of China’s cultural “soft” power and its obstacles. Vulnerabilities in China’s “soft” power have been explored, including the political system and civil society. The importance of the tools of "mask" and "vaccine" diplomacy in the arsenal of "soft" power of China used to minimize the negative effects of the pandemic on China’s image and elevate its status as a leader in global health, have been analyzed. The effectiveness of the Chinese “soft” power has been analyzed through the studies conducted by the “Pew Research Centre” and “Portland Communication” agency. The importance of economic “soft” power in China’s conquest of new allies, including Asia and Africa, has been noted. It is emphasized that the most successful “soft” power is among countries where China is not burdened with accusations of human rights violations. It is noted that one of the main problems in China’s implementation of “soft” power policy is the dissonance between the image that China seeks to project and the country’s actions.

The desire of mankind to live full of serenity and peace will never be realized if acts of terror, greed, injustice, and whatever form that represents a sanity still remain grounded. History has noted that acts of terrorism and violence, not a problem solving, but make complicated and increasing a problem. Terrorism is a form of extraordinary crime (extra ordinary crime). In an effort to prevent the understanding of terrorism that becomes the enemy of the state and also the religious community, the government or the security side must also coordinate with the scholars, da'i and community figures in order that the society and the country are getting away from munkar. The government and society should not allow rampant injustice and socio-economic imbalance. Therefore, according to Nur Syam really needed is the integration between hard power and soft power to overcome this religious radicalism. The hard power represented by government is essentially to cope instantaneously or to cope quickly with the radical movement. But far more important is the role of soft power or community - including APDI (Association of Indonesian Dakwah Profession) - to carry out guidance and community development that puts Islamrahmatan lil alamin forward.

In your opinion, how do (or should) organizations and artists balance their often divergent responsibilities to their donors, the government bodies of their host nations, their audiences and presumed beneficiaries, and/or their own inspiration and vision? GN: Art and artists can facilitate or smooth the process of mutual understanding between NGOs and their civil society counterparts, as well as influence projects and their implementation. . . . The critical, positive, and open mind most often shown by artists could then be a soft power to shape the organization’s vision, building bridges between NGO representatives and local people. . . . We should not forget that most artists and humanitarian NGOs have in common strong militant values as their core principles and these people are largely engaged for such reasons....

The Karo Protestant Batak Church (GBKP) does not have a permit to build a house of worship, so the surrounding community rejects the building. This paper focus on the strategy undertaken by the Inter-Community Forum (FLO) in resolving the GBKP establishment case, as well as the obstacles that occurred in resolving the GBKP case in 2016 in Tanjung Barat, South Jakarta. This study uses qualitative research methods with analysis and in-depth understanding. Based on the results of the study, the Strategy of the Inter-Organization Forum (FLO) in resolving the Protestant Christian Batak Church (GBKP) case related to the establishment of houses of worship was successfully carried out, through a legal, public and also South Jakarta government approach. Conflicts between religious communities in the West Tanjung area can be avoided, although the Protestant Batak Church (GBKP) cannot establish a church in the region. However, the government has relocated the worship activities of the Protestant Christian Batak Church (GBKP) in the Balai Minggu Sports Hall (GOR) Pasar Rakyat.
