This is a study of endeavor in planting of multicultural values carried out by Pesantren Kauman of Lasem in a multi-ethnic community setting. The study of the importance of understanding multiculturalism in a society with religious backgrounds like Indonesia is very crucial. This study contributes to the aspect of teaching multicultural values by one of the representatives of the oldest Islamic education institution, pesantren. It focuses particularly to understand the Pesantren’s motivation and ways of implementation of planting of multicultural values as an effort to maintaining harmony with the surrounding community, which is dominated by ethnic Chinese. This research seeks to answer what are the urgency, the ways of implementation, as well as the responses in terms of educating multicultural values carried out by Pesantren Kauman of Lasem. This pesantren has its own uniqueness because it stands in the midst of a non-Muslim community. This can strengthen the opinion that religion can be social cohesion. This is a qualitative study which employed field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation study as data collection tools. The main research site is located in Lasem, which is also known as Little China. It found out that the Pesantren grows the motivation to implement multicultural values from theological and sociological perspective. Furthermore, in terms of implementation, the pesantren utilizes the formal-pedagogical as well as nonformal-sociological aspects. This study also concludes that the implementation reaped both pro and contra responses. However, in general the Kauman Pesantren from Lasem succeeded in teaching multicultural values and using them to maintain harmony. This study shows that multicultural values can be taught formally-pedagogically or non-formally-sociologically. The theological aspect can be the point of departure, but the sociological aspects are also essential to consider in planting multicultural values which are then implemented in society. The Pesantren Kauman of Lasem has finally showed successful efforts in teaching multicultural values and using them to maintain harmony in a multicultural society. The results of this study are an evidence that multicultural values are able to be taught formally-pedagogically or non-formally-sociologically. The theological aspect can be the point of departure, but the sociological aspect is also essential to be considered in planting multicultural values which are then implemented in society.

‘University programmes for older people’ (UPOP) have recently expanded rapidly in Europe and are now well established. This study examines the functions and achievements of the programmes and the characteristics of UPOP students in Spain. The evaluation is from a general sociological perspective, and uses data from a survey of a representative sample of the students and other sources. The main socio-demographic findings are that the students are relatively young older people, have a relatively high socio-economic level, and are predominantly women and retired. It is shown that beyond the education imparted, the programmes also fulfil important social roles. A critical analysis of the programmes as social policy highlights their socially selective reach and impacts, and compares their actual and potential functions. Some alternatives are discussed. If UPOP are to maintain their identity as programmes for older people, a different approach is required to reach all elderly people, including the ‘really old’. On the other hand, if the objectives emphasise the promotion of social integration and personal development (in matters other than employment skills), there is no reason why they should be addressed exclusively to people aged 50 or more years (or any arbitrary age). Rather, they should be open to adults of all ages. If this change were made, UPOP would give less reinforcement to a particular social construction of old age.

This article discusses Indonesian cyber society active­ties and its configuration on social media which considered being able to encourage social movements, for instance Defen­ding Islam Action, subsequently well known as ‘Defending Islam Action 212’. This article argues that netizens' activities on social media turned out to involve various class variants and social status and are able to encourage the ' Defending Islam Action’. Moreover, the social formation and activities of netizens on the social media constitute the prospects for the social construction of the cosmopolitan Muslim community in Indonesia. The portrait of Indonesian cosmopolitan Muslim is seen as a cong­re­gation of citizens compelled by their religious awareness, regardless of social, political, economic boundaries and even inter-religiosity which reveres universal principles of humanity.

Within the community there are several deviations with different categories. One of the deviations in society related to gender can be recognized through the transgender phenomenon. The term transgender is given to individuals who feel that their gender identity is different from their own identity, so that they look and have a lifestyle with a gender that is felt to be in accordance with their identity, whether or not there is a sex change operation. This research focuses on the social construction of transgender acceptance in the Muslim community in South Jakarta. Therefore, this study aims to determine how transgender people can be accepted in the Muslim community in Indonesia with social construction. This type of research uses qualitative research and phenomenological methods. Researchers collected data through interviews with transgender people and religious experts. After conducting interviews, the authors concluded that with regular interactions and meetings, society would be able to accept transgender people by getting to know the person more deeply and going through the process.Di dalam lingkup masyarakat terdapat beberapa penyimpangan dengan kategori yang berbeda-beda. Salah satu penyimpangan di masyarakat terkait jenis kelamin dapat dikenal melalui fenomena transgender. Istilah transgender diberikan kepada individu  yang merasa bahwa identitas kelaminnya berbeda dengan identitas dirinya, sehingga mereka berpenampilan dan memiliki gaya hidup dengan kelamin yang dirasakan sesuai dengan identitas dirinya, dengan adanya maupun tidak adanya operasi penggantian kelamin. Penelitian ini berpusat terhadap konstruksi sosial penerimaan transgender pada masyarakat beragama islam di Jakarta Selatan. Maka dari itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana kaum transgender dapat diterima di masyarakat beragama islam di Indonesia dengan konstruksi sosial. Jenis penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kualitatif dan metode fenomenologi. Peneliti mengumpulkan data melalui wawancara dengan kaum transgender dan ahli agama. Setelah melakukan wawancara, penulis menyimpulkan bahwa dengan adanya interaksi dan pertemuan secara berkala, maka masyarakat akan bisa menerima  transgender  dengan mengenal orang itu lebih dalam lagi dan melewati prosesnya.

Bhur'maen is a social entity in Madurese terminology that is pinned on certain people or forms of society that are accustomed to begging for daily activities in the form of harvests or money whose modus operandi is to visit people's homes. This study aims to understand by describing the phenomenon of social problems in the context of the habits of the bhur’maens in Madura which have been carried on for generations (regeneration), thereby popping the pragmatic model of the bhur’maen community in the perspective of social construction. The analytical approach used is a qualitative approach. In the interest of this research the research paradigm rests on the paradigm of social definition by using the dialectical model of Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann's Social Construction as a theoretical foundation for a sociological perspective, which focuses on the social construction of society towards the reality of bhurmaens in the Tlanakan area of Pamekasan Madura which is stigmatized as a sub-district of bhurmaen . Data collection is done by observation, interview, documentation and focus group discussion (FGD) techniques. The results and in-depth discussion in the research show: First, that the socio-cultural construction of bhur'maen is formed based on the knowledge and experiences of individuals and or actors in understanding the reality of bhur'maens in Madura. Secondly, that the bhur’maen socio-cultural construction is formed based on the values that are held by individuals and or actors in understanding the reality of bhur’maens in Madura. Third, that the socio-cultural construction of bhur'maen is formed based on the recognition (legitimacy), beliefs and beliefs of individuals and / or actors in understanding the reality of bhur’maen in Madura.

Many studies on the westward transplantation of Buddhism focus on the retention of traditional authenticity. The sociological perspective provided here moves the emphasis to the social construction of such claims. The social construction of traditional authenticity will be explored through a study of the Tibetan Buddhist organisation, Rokpa Scotland (RS) and it will be demonstrated that RS constructs claims to traditional authenticity by adapting to the local culture whilst demonstrating links with an ancient practice. These claims are then reified by limiting adaptations and retaining core features associated with Buddhism. None the less adapting to the West can be seen as detraditionalization and can present a threat to claims to traditional authenticity. However, RS can claim to control the detraditionalization process by responding to the effects of reflexive modernization and controlling the flow of information. In controlling detraditionalization RS provides the plausibility structures to maintain claims to traditional authenticity.
