Social and cultural interactions in social activities, cooperation, consensus decision-making, caring for others, and the environment can maintain religious harmony in the people of South Lore and West Lore Districts, Poso Regency. The social and cultural interactions can form a collective consciousness of the community to understand, respect, and appreciate religious diversity. Not surprisingly, if the social and cultural interactions are firmly in three activities in the community: traditional activities where social interaction occurs because the community respects local customs; humanity where through respect for humanity between communities, this social and cultural interaction occurs; and religion that regulates religious relations between communities that respect each other and respect the activities that the community carries out. From these three activities, the social and cultural interaction between community members in South Lore and West Lore Districts, Poso Regency can eliminate the potential for religious conflict and maintain harmony and harmony among various religious believers ot adherents.

Based on ethnographic research in the Ecuadorian Highlands, this article puts the mobility, migration, and smuggling practices of Ecuador’s indigenous people in historical and contemporary context. The people of Ecuador’s Southern Highlands have been on the move for generations, and migration is deeply embedded in the social and cultural landscape. In the rural communities of Cañar, indigenous coyotes are more than facilitators of migration: they are community members operating amid broader structural constraints, which have led to the emergence of specific trends in the facilitation of irregularized migration, yet they are expected to adhere to communal principles of reciprocity and trust. We place indigenous migrant narratives of mobility and identity at the center of our analysis of human smuggling, articulating a counternarrative to that of criminalization prevalent in transnational debates of irregularized migration, national security, and border control.

AbstractKeramat is the Malay word for the graves of notable figures which are popular sites of prayer and dot the social and physical landscapes of much of Muslim Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean region as a whole. The term refers to both people as well as their burial sites. Historically, keramat drew people of different ethnic and religious backgrounds. While the venerated dead also came from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, histories, and faiths, they were usually Muslim and frequently Hadrami (from the Hadramaut region in Yemen). In this paper, I view keramat as a significant site of social and cultural diversity. The study of keramat, and the transoceanic movement of the people and faith to which it is linked, may shed further light on the cultural interaction that has historically characterized the region. At the same time, the permissibility of the veneration of graves constitutes a terrain that has long been contested by Muslim scholars. As a result, the fate of this popular practice may offer insights into the complex process of Islamization in the region which began around 700 years ago. I explore two questions in particular. First, in what ways do keramat embody cultural diversity? Secondly, where do keramat stand in relation to state- and organization-driven Islam?

One of the efforts to reduce poverty is through community asset-based empowerment, as has been done by the people of Pentingsari Village, Yogyakarta. Through the Pentingsari Tourism Village program, people who initially relied on income only from agriculture can now be more prosperous through village nature-based tourism management and the social life of village communities. Various development obstacles can be overcome by carrying out development stages. Therefore, the focus of this study is to determine the stages of asset-based empowerment carried out by the people of Pentingsari Village in 2008 - 2018. This study uses a literature study approach. Empowerment in Pentingsari Village shows a relevance to Christopher Dureau's asset-based empowerment theory. In this study, the findings of community asset-based development in Pentingsari Village from 2008-2018 include the six stages of empowerment. The implementation of these six stages has always involved the local community and has brought positive changes to the community. The implementation of the stage of studying and arranging scenarios (define), the stage of uncovering the past (discovery), and the stage of dreaming of the future are carried out continuously, with the role of the pioneer character being more dominant. After that, the asset mapping stage was carried out in a sustainable and sustainable manner, with the asset mobilization stage and the monitoring stage through routine forums attended by community members and village officials.


Archaeologists who study cross-cultural interaction face the challenge of carefully untangling the web of complex relationships between people, landscapes, and material cultures. Over time the debate on describing cultural interaction scenarios centered on changing definitions of colonialism and frontier and at times obscured the in-depth analysis of complex social processes that take place in these contexts. In an attempt to bridge this gap, this book introduces the Cross-Cultural Interaction Model (CCIM) as a tool to visually display and organize the inherent complexity of the social, economic, and political interactions that take place in multicultural borderlands or across long distances. Through the CCIM, scholars are able to explore a wide spectrum of cultural interactions, expose what motivates participation in cultural exchanges, or highlight what people reject in these interactions. Throughout the book the CCIM is adapted by various scholars to specific datasets from a wide variety of geographical and temporal contexts around the world. The adaption of the CCIM in these and other case studies demonstrates not only the versatility of the model in multicultural contexts but also highlights its usefulness as an analytical tool. The process of graphically modelling cross-cultural interactions compels scholars to think about them in a different light and can be applicable not just in archaeological, but also historical and contemporary scenarios.

Community political participation in the election of governors and deputy governors is a form of democratic process in a democratic country. The election of the governor and deputy governor in Java was followed by two governor and deputy governor candidates. Candidates for number one are Ganjar Pranowo and Taj Yasin. Then for the second serial number candidates are Sudirman Said and Ida Fauziah. The researcher used qualitative research methods. Data sources presented as authors are primary data and secondary data. Primary data obtained from observations or interviews conducted by the author immediately jumped into the field. Then the following data is secondary data. Secondary data obtained by researchers from the documentation and voter data obtained from Blora Regency KPU and Central Java Provincial Election Commission office. In collecting data, the author uses interview and observation methods. Data analysis is done in several ways, namely by combining data, reducing data, and then drawing conclusions.The results of the study indicate that: the factors that influence participation are differences in the interests of candidates. Then the people did not really know the governor and deputy governor candidates. The next factor is that the social structure of the community at the village level also opposes people's interest in coming to the tps. Community work involving farmers and at the time of the election took place, in Blora district was harvesting so that farmers preferred to harvest their crops. Community political organizations strongly oppose political education because in political, social and other community organizations organizations are supporters of individual or group quality. Community members who are experienced in organization certainly have good political education.
