Voice vs Noise: Technology-Mediated Sound in Interfaith Dialogue

BeritaHeadlineNewsWednesday Forum News Monday, 20 February 2017


Abstract:
Urban people are always exposed to soundscape, to sounds and noises in their everyday life. With the aid of technology, the soundscape of Yogyakarta has dramatically changed in the last 30-40 years. The sounds which once gave certain characteristics to the city have changed both quantitatively and qualitatively. For most people it does not bother them if they do not pay attention to them. However, people accept certain sounds as acceptable sounds while some other may reject them as disturbing noises. The result of such perceptions create spsychologically different responses, either positively or negatively. Therefore, exploring how people in the City of Tolerance responding to the religious soundscape of the place where they live is an effort to see an interfaith relationship from a different perspective, the auditory angle.

Sekolah Pengelolaan Keragaman VIII: Menjembatani Aktivis dan Akademisi

BeritaHeadlineNewsPluralism NewsSPK news Wednesday, 5 October 2016

“Sebenarnya di kalangan aktivis, penelitian itu juga tidak absen, pun sebaliknya,”  cetusan Dr. Mohammad Iqbal Ahnaf , Ketua program Sekolah Pengelolaan Keragaman (SPK) VIII itu memantik perhatian para peserta yang hadir pada pembukaan SPK VIII di Disaster Oasis Kaliurang, Yogyakarta. Selama ini, aktivis dan akademisi seolah diposisikan sebagai bagian terpisah yang bekerja di ranah masing-masing. Dikotomi inilah yang sedang dikritisi oleh CRCS UGM melalui program SPK VIII. “Di kalangan akademisi, banyak sekali akademisi yang aktivis, pun banyak pula aktivis yang peneliti. Sebenarnya irisan-irisan itu sudah ada” tukas Iqbal. Pengategorian ini tidak hanya menciptakan kesenjangan semu tetapi seringkali malah menimbulkan persoalan baru. Para aktivis yang getol terjun ke lapangan dalam penyelesaian berbagai konflik keragaman kerap terbentur masalah data riset dan basis pengetahuan sebagai landasan advokasi. Di sisi lain, para akademisi yang mencoba melibatkan diri dalam proses advokasi cenderung terpaku pada teori dan kurang menguasai medan. Dalam konteks inilah SPK VIII berusaha menjembatani kesenjangan antara dunia akademis dan aktivis. Kolaborasi kreatif antara aktivis-akademisi ini akan mampu memberi terobosan dalam penyelesaian masalah-masalah keragaman tersebut.
Sementara itu, dalam kesempatan yang sama, Prof. Ir. Suryo Purwono, MA.Sc., Ph.D, Direktur Sekolah Pascasarjana UGM, menggarisbawahi tentang kekayaan keragaman Indonesia sebagai sebuah kekuatan yang tidak dapat ditandingi negara mana pun. “Sayangnya,” ujar profesor yang menamatkan studi doktoralnya di University of Waterloo, Kanada, ini, “Pengelolaan keragaman ini belum dapat ditangani dengan baik” Lebih lanjut, Prof. Suryo berharap agar setelah selesai mengikuti kegiatan ini, para peserta SPK tak hanya dapat menjadi pemantik dan pelopor bagi komunitasnya tetapi juga membangun jejaring yang solid dalam pengelolaan keragaman di Indonesia.
Untuk mewujudkan hal itu, konsep pembelajaran SPK memadukan antara kuliah dan pelatihan. Secara garis besar, ada tiga tahapan penting dalam proses pembelajaran di SPK yang akan dilalui oleh para peserta. Ketiga tahapan tersebut yaitu pemetaan masalah, pengayaan teoretis, serta advokasi berbasis riset. Selain membekali dengan materi yang bersifat teoretis, program SPK juga mengasah dimensi praktis para peserta melalui studi kasus secara nyata. “Jadi, kita tidak mengajari peserta bagaimana cara melakukan advokasi, yang kita lakukan adalah memperkaya alat analisa peserta dalam merefleksikan pengalaman advokasi mereka,” ujar Iqbal.
Perlu diketahui, 25 peserta SPK VIII tak cuma berasal dari beragam latar belakang—seperti profesi, jenis kelamin serta agama dan suku—tetapi juga orang-orang yang aktif dalam mengadvokasi situasi keragaman di komunitasnya. Seluruh peserta ini merupakan hasil seleksi ketat terhadap ratusan calon peserta dari seluruh wilayah di Indonesia yang mengirimkan aplikasi lamaran peserta beberapa bulan sebelumnya. Selain itu, keterwakilan wilayah juga menjadi salah satu pertimbangan dalam pemilihan peserta.
img_5358Pada hari pertama SPK ini, para peserta melakukan kontrak belajar yang akan menjadi tata tertib selama proses pembelajaran di SPK ini berlangsung. Nia Sjarifudin, fasilitator SPK VIII yang berasal dari Aliansi Nasional Bhinneka Tunggal Ika (ANBTI) memandu sesi kontrak belajar ini. Selanjutnya, Dr. Zainal Abidin Bagir, fasilitator dari CRCS UGM, mengajak peserta SPK untuk bersama memetakan berbagai persoalan keberagaman. Dari diskusi yang gayeng tapi serius, dirumuskanlah lima pokok persoalan yang kerap hadir dalam persoalan keberagaman, yakni interfaith atau hubungan antar agama, perempuan, masyarakat adat, pendidikan, dan media. Kelima tema inilah—dengan segenap polemik dan persoalan turunannya—yang akan menjadi bahasan sepanjang SPK berlangsung. Malam semakin larut, namun para peserta masih bersemangat untuk berbagi pengalaman soal pengelolaan keragaman. Semangat ini pula yang menjadi titik pijak pertama kebersamaan dari serangkaian acara SPK yang masih akan berlangsung hingga sepuluh hari ke depan. 

Is Interfaith Marriage Possible in Indonesia?

On June 18 2015, the Constitutional Court rejected the judicial review on Article 2 (1) of the Government Regulation No. 1/1974 about Marriage that was proposed by three graduates and one student of University of Indonesia from Law Department. The judicial review was proposed in order to guarantee the legal law for interreligious marriage. The common interpretation of the ambiguous Article 2 (1) of the Regulation is that interreligious marriage is impossible in Indonesia. The previous article that is published by Magdalene generally tells about the same understanding.
As it so happened, I recently conducted my class assignment about interreligious marriage in Indonesia or to be specific in Yogyakarta. I would like to introduce to you, the two people who informed me on this matter, and who is also an interfaith couple, Sak Liung (a Buddhist) and Friska Widhiyati (a Catholic). They got married in 2013 in St. Antonius Church, Yogyakarta. They wedded in a Catholic ceremony, but it did not involve converting Sak Liung into Catholicism. He also did not need to change his religion on his identity card. They told me that the church gave a dispensation for Catholics who want to marry non-Catholics.
In order to get a legal recognition from the state, the church testified to give evidence that the marriage was already officiated in a Catholic ceremony to the Population and Civil Registration Agency in Yogyakarta, so the state can issue the marriage certificate.

Since the end of 19th century, the Catholic Church Since the end of 19th century, the Catholic Church has conducted missionary activities among the Javanese in Muntilan, Indonesia, establishing it as the first Catholic mission site in Java. The missionary work not only impacted the Javanese but also the Chinese descendants in Muntilan. The conversion of the Chinese to Catholicism in sparked debates among the Chinese community, who perceived it as a contributing factor to the abandonment of Chinese characteristics. This contest leads to the dynamic and diverse identities of Chinese Catholics within the community, as Chinese characteristics and Catholic faith mutually influence each other.
