<p><strong>Abstract </strong><strong></strong></p><p>The problem of this research is how can the local cultural values in Al-Azhar Tafsir. The purpose of this research is knowing local culture values in Al-Azhar Tafsir and analyzing the purpose of HAMKA putting local cultural values ini Al-Azhar Tafsir. The method of this research is library research and uses a study approach of character studies and<em>content analytics. </em>Researchers found that HAMKA's attitude was divided into two in linking local cultural values in Al Azhar's Tafsir. First, wanting to preserve local cultural values such as Aphorism, Verse, Poetry, Parable, Pameo and others. The second, strongly opposed and warned people of traditions that were contrary to Islamic Shari'a such as "adorig sea", giving offerings and others. And among the main objectives of HAMKA to include local cultural values was to approach Islamic da'wah to Indonesian people through local cultural values in its interpretation. And also introduce to the world of readers about Malay identity and Local Wisdom. And it also contained an invitation to noble morals as Religion and Culture motivate it and there were also politic and ethical politic invitations because at the time of writing this interpretation, the Indonesian political atmosphere was currently unstable. Therefore, it is very good to make Al Azhar's Tafsir become one of the references in preaching Islam on this Malay Earth and hopefully in the future there will be a Ilmiyah Figure and Study that combines Islamic Sharia and Local Cultural Values in a fair and balanced way.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keyword</strong><strong>s</strong><strong>: </strong>Local Wisdom, Values and Al-Azhar Tafsir<strong></strong></p>

Tradition and culture are unique, sometimes like iron steel which absorbs the attractiveness and charm of the world of foreign tourism, but also sometimes has a moral problem. But judging by the preservation of the purity of cultural values, the pride of traditional traditions is important to preserve. Likewise, the begawe tradition draws on what is happening in the Sasak Muslim community on Lombok Island, which must be saved from the influence of global modernization that oppresses the purity values ​​of local culture. The lack of attention and concern of the government towards the begawe merarik tradition also determines the continuation of the traditional customs and culture of the Sasak community in the future.

This ethnography explores the controversial plans and practices of the Maitreya Project, as they worked to build the “world's tallest statue” as a multi-million dollar “gift” to India. This effort entailed a plan to forcibly acquire hundreds of acres of occupied land for the statue park in the Kushinagar area of Uttar Pradesh. The Buddhist statue planners ran into obstacle after obstacle, including a full-scale grassroots resistance movement of Indian farmers working to “Save the Land.” In telling the “life story” of the proposed statue, the book sheds light on the aspirations, values and practices of both the Buddhists who worked to construct the statue, as well as the Indian farmer-activists who tirelessly protested against it. Since the majority of the supporters of the Maitreya Project statue are “non-heritage” practitioners to Tibetan Buddhism, the book narrates the spectacular collision of cultural values between small agriculturalists in rural India and transnational Buddhists from around the world. The book endeavors to show the cultural logics at work on both sides of the controversy. Thus, this ethnography of a future statue of the Maitreya Buddha—himself the “future Buddha”—is a story about divergent, competing visions of Kushinagar’s potential futures.

The standard Roman histories, especially when written by authors who have an undisguised contempt for archaeology, give very little idea of the civilization and development of Italy before the later days of the Republic. They are histories of Rome but not of Italy. And so the reader is subconsciously led to suppose that the Romans were the most important and the most advanced people on the peninsula, who gradually extended the benefits of their superior civilization over a series of more or less barbarous neighbours. This is a complete inversion of the real facts. The Romans of the Republic were a rather backward people, and it was hardly before the second century B.C. that they could begin to rank as the equals of the Italian provincials in general refinement and culture. Incessantly occupied with the wars which were essential to their very existence, the Romans had no leisure, even if they possessed the inclination, to cultivate the arts and humanities. But, while the future head of the world was struggling for bare life, a rich Italian civilization had been born and developed in the independent territories which had not yet fallen under her sway. Before ever they came under the organizing and levelling domination of the central capital, Etruria, Venetia, Lombardy and Picenum had each evolved its own distinct and very valuable local culture; while the whole south from Naples to Brindisi had been civilized by Corinthian and Ionic influence. Rome when she conquered and annexed these territories in due sequence fell heir to a fully finished product. Italy had been created, but not by Rome; the task that fell to the Romans was much more suited to their peculiar abilities—they had to organize and administer the country.

This research is a library research. The analysis used is content analysis that focuses on academic manuscripts in the form of books, articles, and writings in papers related to the internalization of Ternates local culture which has been eroded by globalization to strengthen the character of the nation. Internalization according to Ihsan is an effort made by a person to insert values ​​(local cultural values) into the soul of a person or group of people so that these values ​​can be manifested in him. The internalization of the local Ternate culture takes place in three institutions that support each other, go hand in hand, and go hand in hand in the family, school and community. The internalization of local Ternate culture must take place continuously in peoples lives with an emphasis on character aspects (attitudes, mindsets, and patterns of action), especially the nations generation. Ternates local cultural values ​​are reflected in the values ​​that exist in community life, including: greeting each other (standard togor / sibinyafo), reminding each other (makuwaje), paying attention / caring (raw faduli), mutual cooperation (babari ), help each other (lilian), visit each other (silaturrahim),and respect each other (baising). The internalization of local Ternate culture in the New Normal Era is an effort to make Ternate people in general and especially the younger generation to become citizens who are polite, civilized and tolerant, and strong in facing various threats that come from outside (global culture). The cultural values ​​of Tara No Ate (Ternate) which originate from the traditional social values ​​of the Ternate community itself must become an integral part of the nations culture that cannot be separated from various generations, so that the success of national character development must be based on local values. to create social harmony.

The object of this article is to examine changing Chinese attitudes to their place in the world from a Chinese historical and intellectual perspective, in order to provide a basis for anticipating developments in the future attuned more to a Chinese than to a western point of view. The question immediately arises whether such a perspective is in any way relevant to the recent theory and practice of international relations in the People's Republic of China, and what insights, if any, such a perspective may provide for discussing the future. This is a controversial subject concerned with the nature of cultural change, and the extent to which " imprinting" from a long continuity of accepted social and cultural values can psychologically condition people even after a decisive break in that tradition appears to have occurred.

Happiness is an eternal concept that will always keep being up to date which means the concept of happiness will never be ended for discussion. Starting from ancient times, people today, and people in the future always want the same thing as happiness. The concept of happiness is not something new for both the world of Sufism and philosophy, therefore the concept of happiness experiences the dynamic development of the concept. Hamka is one of the scholars in Indonesia who discusses the concept of happiness, but Hamka has its own characteristics in explaining happiness. According to Hamka, happiness actually exists in every human being, happiness can be achieved from inside, not from outside, happiness that comes from outside of ourself is only as a complement to happiness inside, happiness can be achieved if humans always hone and develop tools which can be used to achieve happiness and these tools are religion, reason, and mind. These three things have a relationship with each other, if humans are able to develop these three things then humans can achieve happiness in their lives. In achieving happiness, these three things can be applied by using several methods namely zuhud, sincere, qana’ah and tawakal. The background of this research will explain the concept of happiness in the modern mysticism of Hamka. This research is a library research, and to make it more functional and useful, this paper will be equipped by a description method, interpretation and analysis of data in detail for each problem raised, therefore it can obtain a comprehensive understanding.

The presence of the KIPAS model is an effort to strengthen the dignity of Indonesian counselors and counselors who have been oriented towards western culture. Western culture which is clearly incompatible with our culture, Nusantara culture which adheres to eastern culture. The attraction of the BK Model KIPAS is the use of cultural values as the basis for implementing BK services, thus giving rise to an enlightenment in the implementation of BK services in the archipelago. This gives an enthusiasm and hope that the idea of a counseling model based on this archipelago culture will be accepted now and especially in the future. The model is an acronym for KIPAS, which is intensive and progressive counseling that is adaptive to structure. The existence of the KIPAS model will be able to answer problems that occur such as the many unresolved student problems and improvements to the image of BK in society. So far, we have seen that the implementation of counseling guidance services in schools in Indonesia has become something students dislike. As a new model in the world of BK, of course it cannot be separated from the strengths or strengths and weaknesses or weaknesses of the KIPAS model itself. The KIPAS model should accommodate all cultures in Indonesia from Sabang to Merauke.

Abstract. This research took place just after the end of the protests following the killing of a 16-year-old boy by a policeman in Greece in December 2008. Participants (N = 224) were 16-year-olds in different schools in Attiki. Informed by the Politicized Collective Identity Model ( Simon & Klandermans, 2001 ), a questionnaire measuring grievances, adversarial attributions, emotions, vulnerability, identifications with students and activists, and questions about justice and Greek society in the future, as well as about youngsters’ participation in different actions, was completed. Four profiles of the participants emerged from a cluster analysis using representations of the conflict, emotions, and identifications with activists and students. These profiles differed on beliefs about the future of Greece, participants’ economic vulnerability, and forms of participation. Importantly, the clusters corresponded to students from schools of different socioeconomic areas. The results indicate that the way young people interpret the events and the context, their levels of identification, and the way they represent society are important factors of their political socialization that impacts on their forms of participation. Political socialization seems to be related to youngsters’ position in society which probably constitutes an important anchoring point of their interpretation of the world.
