<p>The study discusses the dynamics of <em>k</em><em>iai</em>s’ views in response to the government regulations to develop education in pesantren. It is a descriptive qualitative study on the <em>kiais</em> in Pondok Pesantren Lirboyo, Kediri, East Java, Indonesia. Using a theory of social construction of reality, it scrutinizes the regulations that the government issued and the ways the <em>kiais</em> are responding to them. The social construction of the <em>kiais</em> brings a dynamic action in developing the <em>pesantren</em>. Government regulations related to the education in <em>pesantren</em>, as a social reality, are not textually accepted. Rather, the <em>ki</em><em>ais</em> always seek to address these regulations creatively and dynamically as to integrate the education in <em>pesantren</em> with the old tradition and modernity, because of which the needs and development of society can be fulfilled. The knowledge of the <em>kiais</em> influences the actions in developing education in <em>pesantren</em>. Innovative and dynamic views of the <em>kiais</em> lead to the growth of <em>pesantren</em> in multiple dimensions.</p>

This paper proposes to give some account and critique of Peter Berger's thought as contained in a selection of his books. No note will be taken of his witty and mordant critique of the Protestant Churches in the United States, The Noise of Solemn Assemblies (1961), nor yet of The Social Construction of Reality (1966), which is a more technical book than the others which will be dealt with here. These are The Precarious Vision (1961), Invitation to Sociology (1963), The Social Reality of Religion (1967) (more entertainingly entitled in its original American edition, The Sacred Canopy), and A Rumour of Angels (1968).

Abstract Almost all nations are struggling to slow down the transmission of Covid-19 by restricting large gatherings and close social interactions. However, it is not expected that people will stop all social gatherings and interactions voluntarily. This situation requires the construction of a new social reality that compels people to abandon their traditional practices, particularly in countries such as Jordan that have a traditional social order and strong bonding social capital. Nevertheless, Jordan had the lowest rates of Covid-19 in the Middle East during the first four months of the pandemic, because its government used its power to impose restrictions and new regulations. However, the situation has become one of the worst cases in the entire world after the government eased its restrictions. The example of Jordan provides strong evidence that the social construction of reality sometimes requires coercive intervention. Thus, this article reconsiders and extends Berger and Luckmann’s theory of social construction by examining it in the realm of social power. The theory includes three significant processes of social construction: externalization, objectivation, and internalization that should consider the concept of social power to extend the range of its powerful explanation.

Divine Guidance

AbstractThe dominant premise in social sciences in general and in sociology of knowledge in particular is that the reality of everyday life depends upon socio-cultural condition and historicity of a society. In other word, it is socially constructed. There are two monumental works: Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann's The Social Construction of Reality, 1967 and John R. Searle's The Construction of Social Reality, 1995. They advocate that the reality is based on what the majority of people or society believes. It, further indicates that peoples' perceptions of reality differ and there is no way to prove that one reality is more correct that the other (A. Henderson, 1995). Thus, the social construction of reality is used to give a common ground of communication that unites the perception of reality among those who want to communicate effectively. The paper observes that this notion of reality and its construction is defective as it is not linked with truth and goodness. The social reality is the manifestation of some cardinal principles revealed by the Absolute Reality, which is the source and epitome of truth and goodness (Wallerstein, 1976). Those principles enable human to lead a peaceful, harmonious and successful life in the world. They are in the best interest of humanity and thus altruistic. As the revelation comes from Divinity, so the society is formed and shaped by Divine guidance. Humans' struggle of existence and to act and behave in day-to-day life is shaped by the Divine guidance. Hence, the reality that emerges is Divine constructed reality.Keywords: Social Reality, Reality Par Excellence, Objectivation of Subjective Process, Collective Intentionality and Plausibility Structure.AbstrakPremis dominan dalam sains sosial secara umum dan khususnya dalam bidang ilmu sosiologi adalah bahawa realiti kehidupan sehari-hari bergantung kepada keadaan sosio-budaya dan sejarah masyarakat. Dengan kata lain, ia dibina secara sosial. Terdapat dua karya monumental: Peter Berger dan Thomas Luckmann The Social Construction of Reality(Pembinaan Realiti Sosial), 1967 dan John R. Searle The Construction of Social Reality (Pembinaan Realiti Sosial, 1995. Mereka mengatakan bahawa realiti adalah berdasarkan kepercayaan majoriti orang-orang atau masyarakat. Selanjutnya, ia menandakan bahawa persepsi realiti rakyat adalah berbeza dan tidak ada cara untuk membuktikan bahawa satu realiti lebih tepat dari yang lain (A. Henderson, 1995). Oleh itu, pembinaan realiti sosial digunakan bagi memberikan persefahaman komunikasi yang menyatukan persepsi realiti di kalangan mereka yang ingin berkomunikasi dengan berkesan. Kajian ini mengamati bahawa tanggapan realiti ini dan pembinaannya rosak kerana ia tidak dikaitkan dengan kebenaran dan kebaikan. Realiti sosial adalah manifestasi daripada beberapa prinsip kardinal yang dinyatakan oleh Realiti Yang Mutlak, yang merupakan sumber dan lambang kebenaran dan kebaikan (Wallerstein, 1976). Prinsip-prinsip itu membenarkan manusia untuk hidup tenang, berharmoni dan berjaya di dunia. Ianya adalah untuk kebaikan manusia dan dengan demikian, altruistik. Wahyu itu datang dari Keilahian, jadi masyarakat ditubuh dan dibentuk oleh panduan Ilahi. Perjuangan kewujudan manusia dan tingkah-laku sehariannya ditubuh oleh panduan Ilahi. Oleh itu, realiti yang dihasilkan adalah dibina dari realiti keilahian.Kata Kunci: Realiti Sosial, Kecemerlangan Realiti Setaraf, Mengkonkretkan Proses Subjectif, Kesengajaan Kolektif Dan Struktur Bermunasabah.

Government Regulation No. 9 of 1975 related to the implementation of marriage was made to support and maximize the implementation of Law No. 1 of 1974 which had not yet proceeded properly. This paper examines Government Regulations related to the implementation of marriage from the perspective of sociology and anthropology of Islamic law. Although the rules already exist, some people still carry out marriages without being registered. This is anthropologically the same as releasing the protection provided by the government to its people for the sake of a rule. In the sociology of Islamic law, protection is a benchmark for the assessment of society in the social environment. Therefore the purpose of this paper is to find out how the implementation of marriage according to PP. No. 9 of 1975 concerning the Marriage Law in the socio-anthropological perspective of Islamic Law.

As scholars and activists have addressed the problem of violence against women in the past 25 years, their efforts have increasingly attuned us to the multiple dimensions of the issue. Early activists hoped to change the structure of power relations in our society, as well as the political ideology that tolerated violence against women, through legislation, education, direct action, and direct services. This activism resulted in a plethora of changes to the legal codes and protocols relating to rape and battering. Today, social scientists and legal scholars are evaluating the effects of these reforms, questioning anew the ability of law by itself to redress societal inequalities. As they uncover the limitations of legal reforms enacted in the past two decades, scholars are turning—or returning—to ask about the social and cultural contexts within which laws are formulated, enforced, and interpreted.

Baduy Community is very obedient to local rules/custom, e.g. lunang (sundanesse to express obedience to whoever the winner), and ngasuh rati, ngayak menak. Surprisingly, the voter number in Baduy have increased from 2013 to 2014. They have their own mechanism in determining leader, that is by deliberation among customary figures. The social-political changes make-up the result of their construction change toward reality. The issue in this study is how Baduy community (re-)construct general election. This one aims to understand Baduy’s  construction to electoral activities, their understanding to the obligation to participate in election, and the adaptation process of different realities (reality in Baduy and Reality in external). By harnessing the Social Construction of Reality introduced by Berger, and Social Adaptation System introduced by Giddens, this research show Baduy objectifies and participates in general elections as an obedience to the customary rules. Understanding about obligations to participate in election is legitimized by customary institution, regarding dualism of different structure, they must adapt theirselves to different realities.
