Abstract The encounter of the Christian faith with local culture produces dynamic interactions. It can happen that the Christian faith is integrated with that culture. Christian faith can also replace local culture. This is proven when the Christian faith meets the Ma ’nenek culture in Toraja. This research was conducted to find out how the perception and impact of Ma' nenek culture on the Christian faith of the GPSDI Buntuminanga congregation, Toraja. By using a qualitative approach or method, it was found that even though this village became a Christian enclave (100% Christian), it turned out that they still believed in local cultures. These things state that some of the local people are Christians who practice syncretism, that is, there are 2 objects of belief or mixed beliefs. In addition there is also occultism, namely belief in the power of darkness. The presence of Ma' nenek has attracted the attention of the community, especially in Lembang Buntuminanga, that the spirits of the ancestors will come to bless, heal, help and save for families who perform this ritual. The purpose of this culture is as a form of respect for parents. There are still some Christians in Toraja who still believe in the efficacy of rituals in the Ma' nenek. However, in general, Ma' nenek is run by not crashing into the Christian faith in GPSDI Lembang Buntuminaga.   Keywords: grandmothers' culture; christian faith; respect for parents   Abstrak Pertemuan iman Kristen dengan kebudayaan lokal menghasilkan interaksi yang dinamis.

Hal tersebut yang nampak ketika iman Kristen bertemu dengan kebudayaan Ma’ nenek di Toraja. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui bagaimana persepsi dan dampak kebudayaan Ma’ nenek terhadap iman Kristen jemaat GPSDI Buntuminanga, Toraja.  Dengan menggunakan pendekatan atau metode kualitatif, maka didapatkan bahwa sekalipun desa ini menjadi kantong Kristen (100% Kristen), tetapi ternyata mereka masih menganut kepercayaan terhadap budaya-budaya lokal. Hal-hal tersebut menyatakan bahwa sebagian dari masyarakat setempat merupakan orang Kristen yang menjalankan sinkretisme, yakni terdapat 2 objek kepercayaan atau percampuran keyakinan. Di samping itu juga terdapat okultisme, yakni kepercayaaan terhadap kuasa kegelapan. Kehadiran Kebudayan Ma’ nenek telah menarik perhatian masyarakat khususnya di lembang Buntuminanga, bahwa arwah dari leluhur akan datang memberkati, menyembuhkan, menolong dan menyelamatkan bagi keluarga yang melakukan ritual ini. Tujuan dilakukannya kebudayaan ini adalah sebagai bentuk penghormatan terhadap Orang Tua. Masih ada beberapa orang Kristen di Toraja masih percaya dengan keampuhan ritual dalam budaya Ma’ nenek. Namun, secara umum, kebudayaan Ma’ nenek dijalankan dengan tidak menabrak iman Kristen di GPSDI Lembang Buntuminaga.   Kata Kunci: kebudayaan ma’ nenek; iman kristen; penghormatan terhadap orang tua

Local culture everywhere presents meaning space as a guideline for people’s lives, even the presence of tradition can be a medium of social transformation. The tandhe’ as one of the local cultural treasures in Sumenep Madura, emerged as an appreciation of past civilizations that believe that tandhe’ is not a mere spectacle but also as a communication medium that contains the values of goodness. Signs implicitly or explicitly important to learn because it often contains the essence of da’wah which calls on humans to remember God. Tandhe’ as a manifestation of local wisdom will be an effective communication medium for building communities when properly packaged, because cultural anomalies can occur at any time. The researcher uses a qualitative approach in the form of field research so that researchers can directly make observations and even participate in contributing ideas as feedback from informants ideas. The presence of tandhe’ has until now experienced a shift in the function and purpose of tandh’ itself. The ancient kings tandhe’ functioned as the media for the propaganda used by Walisongo in order to spread the teachings of Islam. The religious value of the tandhe’ began to fade because the lovers of the tandhe’ began to abandon the teachings taught by the Walisongo. Tandhe’ at the moment is more dominant in the nature of entertainment which aims only for worldly purposes only. Tandhe’ essentially has a symbolic communication used by Walisongo in preaching Islam to the community which is also a symbol of tirakat by human.

Throughout the history, it is well-known that the ingress and the progress of Islam in Indonesia, especially in Java and Madura, were held almost without any tension and conflict. Even in the societies with some former belief systems such as Animism and Buddhism, Islam was easily accepted as a religion that brings peace within its teachings. During periods, Islam and local cultures perform a dialectical relationship and give rise to local variances of Islam, such as Javanese Islam, Madurese Islam, Sasak Islam, Sundanese Islam, etc. Those variances of Islam are the result of an acculturation process between Islam with the local cultures. In other word, this process is also called as “inculturation”. These local variances of Islam, further termed as the “cultural Islam” in this paper, have become a characteristics of Indonesian Islamic societies phenomenon which are different from Middle-East’s Islamic society and European Islamic society. This paper discusses about the Madurese Islam, one of these cultural Islam’s variances. Dialectical process between Islam and the local culture of Madura in turn generates a unique Madurese Islam, which is distinctive and esoteric. In its further developments, Islam and Madurese tradition are seen as unity and inseparatable, though people can still distinguish one another. This study seeks to uncover and expose the Islamic cultural dynamics that exist and grow in Madura: how big is the change that occurred, in which part, and what factors underlie these changes. This study provides benefit in enriching our scientific study about Indonesian cultural heritage, especially about the dialectical relationship between Islam and Madurese local culture.

The concept and methodology of Six Sigma was developed by the American companies within the local culture of America. Therefore it is grounded on the standards, ethics and behaviours represented by America. The present study proposes that implementing Six Sigma in other countries with different cultures, norms and behaviours may have adjustment problems, as the required culture, values and behaviours for Six Sigma do not match with the local cultures of countries. A conceptual model is proposed which would utilize the Hofstede’s cultural dimensions to determine the effect of national culture at each phase of Six Sigma process.

This study aims to study how Lanta Islanders in southern Thailand can maintain their traditions and culture under globalization. The researchers conducted in-depth interviews with 30 islanders on Lanta Island and used content analysis to analyze the resulting data. The researchers found that, after the tourism boom and globalization came to Lanta Island, many foreign travelers have visited the island, causing local people to change their own way of life to support tourism. However, with government support, the local culture is still alive. The local people have maintained their culture in many ways, such as transmitting their culture to their children and mixing with Thai. We conclude that the Lanta Islanders still maintain their traditions and culture while learning about the world outside the island by adapting themselves in various ways to develop a mixed culture to live under globalization.

AbstrakKarya tulis yang merupakan resume hasil penelitian ini mengungkapkan gambaran mendalam mengenai eksistensi keraton di tengah peradaban masa kini dengan fokus telaah pada persepsi masyarakat terhadap keraton. Penelitian berangkat dari anggapan bahwa keraton semakin menempati posisi marginal belakangan ini. Hal tersebut antara lain disebabkan oleh perubahan sikap dan pandangan masyarakat terhadap keraton akibat derasnya arus kebudayaan dunia dan lingkungan global. Keraton kini hanya dianggap sebagai pusat kebudayaan bagi masyarakat setempat, bukan lagi merupakan sebuah wilayah kekuasaan politik yang independen. Meskipun demikian, masyarakat masih mengenangnya sebagai salah satu lumbung budaya daerah yang potensial. Untuk mengupas permasalahan tersebut, penulis menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Adapun teknik pengumpulan datanya adalah studi literatur, observasi dan wawancara. Setelah dikaji, penulis mencoba merumuskan beberapa usulan kebijakan mengenai langkah-langkah revitalisasi keraton dalam mengantisipasi era globalisasi, yaitu mewujudkan dan memantapkan identitas kepribadian bangsa yang dikemas dengan model masa kini tanpa harus tercerabut dari akarnya. AbstractThe paper is a resumé of a research concerning depth description of the existence of keraton (karatuan = royal palace) in the middle of modern society focusing on the peoples’s perception on keraton. Today people think keraton merely a cultural centre for local people, not as a domain of an independently political power. Changes in world culture and global environment might be responsible for this point of view.To analyse the problem the author conducted a descriptive research method with qualitative approach. Data were collected from bibliographical study, observation, dan interviews. Some suggestions are proposed, such as the policies that should be taken by keraton in anticipating globalization. Revitalization should be made possible in maintaining the recent national identity without having to abandon old traditional values.

Abstract: This research is a qualitative study on abortion from the perspective of Christian faith. This research was conducted to provide academic arguments and scientific references for the Church against the rampant abortion practices and practices, especially in big cities including Jakarta. Using a qualitative approach, it is found that from a Christian ethical perspective, the act of abortion cannot be justified and chosen as an ethical decision because it contradicts or is contrary to the teachings of the Bible. Because God so loves human life and is even willing to send His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to redeem humans from sin. So that humans are not justified in ending the life of an innocent and wronged baby just for practical reasons. Abstrak: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif terhadap aborsi ditinjau dari perspektif iman Kristen. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memberikan argumentasi akademis dan referensi ilmiah bagi Gereja terhadap maraknya tindakan dan praktik aborsi terutama di kota-kota besar termasuk Jakarta. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dijumpai bahwa dari perspektif etika Kristen, maka tindakan aborsi tidak dapat dibenarkan dan dipilih sebagai keputusan etis karena bertolakbelakang atau berlawanan dengan ajaran Alkitab. Karena Allah begitu mencintai kehidupan manusia bahkan rela mengutus Anak-Nya yang tunggal, yaitu Yesus Kristus untuk menebus manusia dari dosa. Sehingga manusia tidak dibenarkan mengakhiri kehidupan bayi yang tidak berdosa dan besalah hanya karena alasan-alasan yang praktis.

This paper intends to analyze how Walisongo applied their cultural strategies to construct Indonesia Muslimsociety. It aims to give an alternative view in solving the discourse on the effective impact of cultural strategy in constructingsociety. To do so, it applies a socio-historical perspective. As a result, Walisongo successfully constructed Muslim society as aninclusive and transformed people towards local cultures. However, Walisongo did not apply syncretism or integrationbetween Islam and local culture but they just acculturated some of Islamic doctrine within local cultures. Therefore, therewere many elements of local cultures adopted by Walisongo as elements of Islamic cultures by internalizing Islamic doctrineswithin them. Since Walisongo’s cultural strategy successfully played an important role in constructing society, the question thencould it be adopted until nowdays?
