NEGOSIASI TRADISI DI RUANG MODERN: ANALISIS SOSIO-ANTROPOLOGIS PRAKTIK TAHLILAN PADA MAHASISWA DI JAWA BARAT
The tradition of tahlilan is deeply rooted in Indonesian Muslim communities, especially among Nahdlatul Ulama, as a religious practice to pray for the deceased. However, in the context of modern society, the meaning and implementation of tahlilan have undergone dynamics, especially among students. Therefore, this study aims to explore the community's perspective on the tradition of tahlilan and the values contained therein. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method through in-depth interviews with 11 students from the Indonesia University of Education (UPI), 1 student from the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), 1 student from the Raden Mas Said Surakarta State Islamic University, as well as the Secretary of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) at the West Java Provincial level and the Deputy Katib Suriah Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) at the West Java Provincial level. The results of the study show that students generally recognize and acknowledge tahlilan as a religious tradition that has spiritual, social, and cultural values. However, student participation in tahlilan tends to be low and situational due to academic commitments. These findings indicate a discrepancy between the recognition of the value of tahlilan and its actual practice, and confirm that tahlilan is a religious practice that continues to undergo adjustments amid social change.

PERAN KELOMPOK SOSIAL DI DALAM FENOMENA ROJALI, ROHANA, DAN ROBELI (STUDI KASUS PADA SEBUAH MALL DI KOTA INDONESIA)
The current social phenomenon emerging in shopping centers such as Rojali, Rohana, and Robeli is of particular concern. Previously, the Rojali, Rohana, and Robeli phenomena only occurred among a few individuals or social groups who tended to conduct research before purchasing goods. However, now, this social phenomenon is occurring on a large scale, resulting in a shift from shopping centers to tourist destinations. Clean, comfortable, and cool shopping conditions attract more visitors. Furthermore, the unstable economic situation is another contributing factor. This is also supported by the extraordinary development of technological sophistication. Furthermore, the convenience of shopping from home or the office has led to a shift in purchasing methods. This study aims to examine the role of social groups in the emergence of the Rojali, Rohana, dan Robeli social phenomena. The research method used is a qualitative method through observation and interviews. The results of this study indicate that social groups determine the direction of the Rojali, Rohana, and Robeli phenomena.

MENGURAI ALASAN BERTAHANNYA PERNIKAHAN DINI DALAM MASYARAKAT KONTEMPORER
Technological advances accompanying contemporary society present a new paradox in adolescent dynamics. Access to information and education is increasingly widespread. However, digital openness has actually triggered an increase in risky behavior in adolescent sexual relationships. This phenomenon raises crucial questions about the factors that cause early marriage to persist in the midst of modernity. This study uses a Systematic Literature Review to explore academic studies on the relationship between technological developments, adolescent behavior, and the decision to marry early. The SLR procedure was carried out by formulating research questions, compiling keywords, searching for articles in reputable databases, and filtering. Articles that met the criteria were analyzed to identify research gaps. The results show that early marriage in modern society is driven by three main factors. First, the intensity of adolescent interaction through digital media increases the likelihood of sexual relationships. Second, there is a gap in social control, weak digital literacy, and minimal parental supervision. Third, families tend to use marriage as a quick solution to cover up moral consequences, thereby perpetuating this practice. These findings confirm that early marriage is not merely a cultural issue, but a contemporary problem triggered by changes in adolescent behavior in the digital ecosystem. This provides a deeper understanding of new analyses of interventions based on digital literacy, sex education, and strengthening social control.

BUDAYA KONSUMTIF MAHASISWA DI ERA DIGITAL ANTARA GAYA HIDUP DAN TEKANAN SOSIAL
Consumptive culture among university students has increasingly developed alongside rapid digital technological advancement and the widespread use of social media in daily life. Consumption is no longer carried out merely to fulfill basic needs, but has become a means of constructing self-identity, displaying social status, and gaining recognition within digital spaces. This article aims to analyze this phenomenon from a sociological perspective by applying Jean Baudrillard’s theory of simulacra, which explains how social reality is shaped by symbols, images, and representations that are continuously reproduced.The method used in this study is a literature review, examining various scientific journals and relevant sources related to consumption, culture, identity, and social pressure. The findings indicate that students’ consumptive behavior is influenced by digital social structures that create indirect social pressure through online interactions. Ideal lifestyle standards are massively displayed and reproduced, encouraging students to constantly adjust themselves in order to maintain social existence and relevance. Consumptive culture has both positive and negative impacts. On one hand, consumption can serve as a form of self-expression and creativity. On the other hand, it may negatively affect students’ financial stability, mental health, and academic focus. Therefore, a critical understanding is necessary so that students can manage their consumption patterns rationally and wisely amid the ongoing development of digital culture.

PARADIGMA HUKUM PROGRESIF DALAM PENGATURAN BISNIS PARIWISATA DI BALI: MENYEIMBANGKAN KEPENTINGAN EKONOMI GLOBAL DENGAN PERLINDUNGAN EKOLOGI DAN BUDAYA LOKAL
The rapid expansion of the global tourism industry has significantly contributed to Bali’s economic growth, while simultaneously generating complex legal, ecological, and socio-cultural challenges. Tourism-driven development often neglects environmental sustainability, marginalizes indigenous communities, and deepens structural inequality in labor and land control. This article aims to examine how the reformulation of progressive legal theory can balance global economic interests with ecological protection and local cultural preservation in Bali, and to develop a sustainable tourism governance model through the integration of state law, Balinese customary law, and international legal norms. This research employs a normative juridical approach, supported by philosophical and sociological legal analysis. The findings indicate that the prevailing procedural and centralistic legal paradigm fails to adequately address Bali’s socio-cultural realities. Progressive legal theory provides a transformative framework by positioning human values, substantive justice, and local wisdom at the core of legal development and enforcement. Furthermore, the concept of legal pluralism becomes a crucial foundation for building inclusive and sustainable tourism governance. Case studies from Penglipuran Village and Junjungan Traditional Village demonstrate that effective integration of state law, customary law, and international principles can produce community-based tourism models that are equitable, environmentally responsible, and culturally resilient. The study concludes that the sustainability of Bali’s tourism sector can only be achieved through legal reform that strengthens indigenous participation, recognizes customary law as a substantive source of regulation, and fosters continuous dialogue among diverse legal systems within a collaborative and justice-oriented governance framework.

TINJAUAN LITERATUR SISTEMATIS HAMBATAN ADMINISTRASI KEPENDUDUKAN TERHADAP PERILAKU PEMENUHAN PENGOBATAN ANAK JALANAN DALAM KERANGKA HIERARKI KEBUTUHAN MASLOW
Street children are a marginalized population group with high morbidity rates but very low access to healthcare. Although they are vulnerable to malnutrition and skin infections, the majority of street children exhibit poor health-seeking behavior, tending to rest at home rather than seek professional medical help. The purpose of this systematic literature review is to analyze structural barriers in the form of population administration on the treatment-seeking behavior of street children through the perspective of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review method. The literature identification process was conducted through academic databases covering the period 2016–2025 using Publish or Perish software. Article selection was carried out using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses protocol, resulting in 18 selected journals for synthesis. The findings show that the absence of identity documents such as a Population Registration Number/Family Card is a major obstacle in accessing BPJS Health and public facilities. Theoretically, the failure to fulfill the need for security in population administration at the second level of Maslow's Hierarchy results in the obstruction of fulfilling physiological needs in the form of medical treatment at the first level. This is exacerbated by psychosocial factors such as trust issues towards health authorities. In conclusion, there is a significant influence between population administration barriers and poor treatment behavior among street children.

FENOMENA FEAR OF MISSING OUT (FOMO) DALAM GAYA HIDUP THRIFTING BERMEREK PADA MAHASISWA UNIVERSITAS SULTAN AGENG TIRTAYASA DI ERA MEDIA SOSIAL
This study examines the phenomenon of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) within branded thrifting practices among students at Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa University. Thrifting, which was initially driven by the need to find affordable secondhand clothing, has now developed into a consumption pattern strongly shaped by social media. This research aims to explore students’ experiences, motivations, and the meanings they construct when engaging in branded thrifting using a qualitative phenomenological approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations of social media content, and documentation related to thrifting activities. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of social practice is used to understand how habitus, capital, and field influence these practices. The findings show that social media plays a significant role in encouraging students’ interest in branded thrifting through review content, fashion hauls, shop recommendations, and live shopping sessions. Continuous exposure to these trends creates a sense of urgency for some students to keep up with certain styles so as not to feel left behind by their peers. This condition fosters FOMO, which later shapes students’ decisions when selecting and purchasing branded thrift items. Ultimately, branded thrifting becomes not only an economical choice but also a medium for self-expression, identity formation, and maintaining social presence both on campus and in digital spaces.

PROSES PELESTARIAN TATO PADA SUKU DAYAK IBAN DI DESA BATU LINTANG KECAMATAN EMBALOH HULU KABUPATEN KAPUAS HULU
This study aims to analyze and describe the forms of tattoo preservation and the factors supporting tattoo preservation among the Dayak Iban sub-tribe in Batu Lintang Village, Embaloh Hulu District, Kapuas Hulu Regency. This is a qualitative study with a descriptive ethnographic approach using qualitative data collection techniques. The data analysis theory refers to Max Weber's views on social actions, which include: instrumental rational actions, value-rational actions, affective actions, and traditional actions. The results of the study show that the process of preserving Dayak Iban tattoos is carried out through four forms of social action: instrumental rational actions, value-rational actions, affective actions, and traditional actions. Tattoos, known locally as pantang, are an important part of the cultural identity of the Dayak Iban tribe and contain spiritual, social, and historical values that have been passed down from generation to generation. The community maintains the use of motifs typical of Dayak Iban tattoos, such as eggplant flowers, andu fruit, engkabang, and tumpa lengan, which represent a spiritual connection with nature. This preservation is supported by individual awareness, understanding of cultural values, and community support, which is manifested in traditional education, cultural festivals, and the use of social media and technology. Tattoos can be seen not only as an expression of art, but also as an intangible cultural heritage with deep meaning and value that is worth preserving and passing on

TEHUNUNA SEBAGAI REPRESENTASI NILAI RELIGIUS DAN SOLIDARITAS SOSIAL MASYARAKAT NEGERI LUHU, SERAM BARAT
This study aims to analyze the religious values and social solidarity embedded in the Tehununa tradition practiced by the community of Negeri Luhu, West Seram Regency, Maluku. Tehununa is a cultural tradition performed on the 27th night of Ramadan and plays an important role in the social and religious life of the local community. This research employs a qualitative approach using an ethnographic method to understand the meanings and practices of the tradition within the community’s cultural context. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The research informants were selected using purposive sampling, focusing on individuals who possess knowledge and direct involvement in the implementation of the Tehununa tradition. The collected data were analyzed using the interactive data analysis model developed by Matthew B. Miles and A. Michael Huberman, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the Tehununa tradition embodies several religious values, including gratitude to God, spiritual values related to the momentum of Ramadan, values of sharing and charity, and values of togetherness within the community. Furthermore, the tradition also reflects social solidarity that tends toward mechanical solidarity as proposed by Émile Durkheim, characterized by shared beliefs, collective participation, and strong communal ties among members of the community.

FENOMENA STANDAR KECANTIKAN DI TIKTOK SERTA RESPONS KRITIS MAHASISWA PENDIDIKAN SOSIOLOGI UNIVERSITAS SULTAN AGENG TIRTAYASA
The phenomenon of beauty standards on TikTok, such as fair skin, smooth faces, and ideal bodies, cannot be separated from the role of algorithms that continuously display content with certain beauty images. This study aims to describe how Sociology Education students at Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa University, class of 2023, assess these beauty standards and how they respond to them whether by accepting, rejecting, or criticizing them from a sociological perspective. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with five students, supplemented by observation and documentation. The results show that most students view beauty standards on TikTok as a social construct that is not entirely realistic and tends to be shaped by digital media. The students' responses to this phenomenon also varied, ranging from selective acceptance, rejection of the pressure of beauty standards, to being critical in shaping their identity. This phenomenon can be understood through Berger and Luckmann's social construction theory, which explains the processes of externalization, objectification, and internalization in the formation of social meaning.

DARI DAERAH KE KAMPUS: NEGOSIASI IDENTITAS MAHASISWA
Educational migration, where by students leave their home regions to pursue higher education, is a phenomenon of social mobility that involves not only geographical displacement but also social and cultural change. Migrant students often face a heterogeneous social environment with values, norms, and communication patterns that differ from those in their hometowns. This condition requires migrant students to undergo a process of cultural identity negotiation to interact and adapt. This study aims to understand how migrant students negotiate their identities and strategies in the face of a new social and cultural environment. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach, collecting data through narrative questionnaires distributed online to respondents who meet the research criteria. The data obtained are analyzed descriptively and inductively by identifying similarities and differences in the respondents' experiences, then interpreting the patterns that emerge. The results of the study show that migrant students still carry their original cultural identity, which is reflected in their use of language, values of politeness, and patterns of interaction. Even so, migrant students still need to make adjustments, especially in the way they communicate, such as their choice of words, speech accents, and interaction styles. The adaptation strategies employed by migrant students include active involvement in organizations, building social relationships with peers, and maintaining support from family and religious values. This process then results in a more flexible and contextual form of identity in the form of a hybrid identity, a combination of the original cultural identity and the identity developed through interaction.

PENONTON SEBAGAI AKTOR SOSIAL: HIPERREALITAS DAN PEMAKNAAN TERHADAP SERIAL DRAMA KOREA
Korean television dramas have become one of the most popular forms of popular culture enjoyed by audiences. A number of previous studies have examined mass media exposure to Korean television dramas, hyperreality in films and dramas, and the effects of such media texts on audiences, often positioning viewers as passive subjects who experience relatively uniform impacts. This article argues that audiences are not passive social actors but active ones, therefore, the hyperreality offered by Korean television dramas does not produce identical effects for every viewer. This study employs a qualitative approach using in-depth interviews with viewers of Korean television dramas in the romance, drama, and comedy genres, supported by a review of relevant literature. The findings indicate that Korean television dramas consistently present narratives of romanticism, however, the processes of interpretation and reception vary among viewers. Some audiences develop new values and perspectives, particularly regarding romance, partnerships, friendships, and family, while others position these dramas merely as entertainment without influencing their everyday lives. These findings affirm that hyperreality in popular culture does not operate in a deterministic manner but is mediated by viewers’ experiences, preferences, and social backgrounds.

PERANAN GEREJA DALAM PENGUATAN NILAI-NILAI PANCASILA PADA JEMAAT DITENGAH MASYARAKAT PLURALISME
Indonesia is a country with a high level of diversity in terms of ethnicity, culture, religion, and language, which necessitates the strengthening of Pancasila values to maintain harmony and unity. However, in the era of globalization and digitalization, the internalization of Pancasila values still faces various challenges, including within religious institutions. This study aims to analyze the role of the Pentecostal Church in Indonesia (GPdI) El-Shaddai Purbolinggo, East Lampung, in strengthening Pancasila values within a pluralistic society. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including interviews, observations, and documentation. The theoretical framework is based on structural functionalism, social construction, and role theory, which position the church as an agent of socialization and value transformation within society. The findings reveal that GPdI El-Shaddai Purbolinggo plays an active role as a social transformation agent by integrating Pancasila values into worship activities, sermons, faith education, and social services. The process of internalizing these values is carried out not only cognitively but also through social practices, interactions, and the exemplary conduct of church leaders in the daily lives of congregants. Sociologically, these findings indicate that the church makes a significant contribution to strengthening social cohesion, solidarity, and tolerance within a pluralistic society. The implications of this study emphasize that reinforcing Pancasila values is not solely the responsibility of the state but also requires the active involvement of religious institutions as strategic actors in fostering social integration and sustaining national unity.

BUDAYA HEALING SEBAGAI GAYA HIDUP DI KALANGAN GEN-Z
This study aims to understand healing culture as a lifestyle among Gen Z, particularly students at Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa University. Using a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with seven informants, this study analyzes the meaning of healing, its driving factors, and its impact on the daily lives of Gen Z. The results show that healing is interpreted as an effort to calm oneself from academic and social pressures through simple activities such as resting, watching, and traveling. Social media also shapes how Gen Z practices healing, shifting it into a lifestyle trend. The culture of healing has a positive impact in the form of increased psychological comfort and reduced stress, but it also has negative effects such as consumptive behavior, procrastination, and the tendency to use healing as an escape. This study confirms that healing not only functions as mental recovery, but also as an expression of the identity of the younger generation in the digital age. Furthermore, the findings indicate that the practice of healing among Gen Z cannot be separated from the influence of digital culture and social interaction in online spaces. The representation of healing activities on social media platforms also contributes to shaping new social norms and expectations regarding how young people manage stress and express their well-being. Therefore, understanding healing culture is important to see how lifestyle, media influence, and psychological needs intersect in shaping the daily experiences of Gen Z.

TRADISI HAROA: SARANA PENANAMAN NILAI-NILAI BUDAYA MELALUI AJARAN ISLAM MENURUT PEMIKIRAN YUSUF AL-QARADHAWI
Haroa tradition is one of the traditions practiced by the Muna community, Southeast Sulawesi. Through this research, the author analyzes the sociological role of the haroa tradition for the heterogeneous Muna community. This research focuses on the role of the haroa ceremony in enhancing togetherness and solidarity as well as instilling cultural values that have been lived by the community. This research used qualitative methods with literature review and interview techniques. The author found that the haroa ceremony functions as a space for the community to foster togetherness and build brotherhood and unity in living together. The process of providing food, togetherness in prayer and eating together becomes a means of building closeness, kinship and brotherhood for the community. In addition, the author also found that the instillation of cultural values is also emphasized in this tradition. The scholars provide values that can be a guide for the community in living together. The use of cultural elements in instilling values in the community is in line with the thoughts of Yusuf Al- Qaradhawi. Al- Qaradhawi emphasized the importance of using cultural elements in instilling Islamic values in the community. The use of cultural elements must be maintained so as not to conflict with Islamic law.

LOCAL WISDOM OF SUNAN AMPEL TOMB, SUNAN DRAJAT TOMB, AND BAJANG RATU TEMPLE
Local wisdom examines an essential aspect of cultural identity, social values, and community resilience, particularly within three heritage sites. This study aims to analyze the forms and functions of local wisdom embodied in three significant cultural sites in East Java: the tomb of Sunan Ampel, the tomb of Sunan Drajat, and Bajang Ratu Temple. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through observation, documentation, and literature review to ensure systematic and valid interpretation. The findings reveal that each site reflects distinctive yet interconnected forms of local wisdom. The Sunan Ampel cemetery emphasizes moderation, spiritual devotion, and personal transformation, as seen in the figures of Sunan Ampel Lembu ,Peteng, Mbah Sholeh, and Mbah Bolong. Sunan Drajat site highlights social welfare, humanitarian values, and moral responsibility, particularly through the symbolic meanings of its stairways, which promote empathy, vigilance, perseverance, spiritual discipline, and charity. Meanwhile, Bajang Ratu Temple demonstrates a synthesis of Hindu-Buddhist philosophy and local wisdom through its architectural design, narrative reliefs, and symbolic ornaments, representing moral teachings, cosmic balance, spiritual protection, and transformation.

MAKNA HEALING DI KALANGAN MAHASISWA DI UNIVERSITAS NEGERI MAKASSAR
This study aims to determine the forms of healing activities undertaken by students and analyze how they interpret healing as part of social dynamics. The study used a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method to understand students' subjective experiences. Informants were selected using purposive sampling from the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Language and Literature, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences, Faculty of Education, Faculty of Social Sciences and Law, and Faculty of Psychology. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data validity was checked using triangulation techniques. Data analysis techniques were carried out through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results showed that healing activities include simple activities such as playing games, watching digital content, reading books, cleaning rooms, to outdoor activities such as walks to the beach, mountains, parks, or nature tours with friends. Healing is defined as an activity carried out in leisure time to strengthen social relations and build self-image on social media. Thus, healing among students is a phenomenon that functions as a representation of lifestyle and social identity in contemporary digital culture. Healing cannot be separated from the social context, digital culture, and academic structures surrounding students. From a leisure perspective, healing can be understood as not only an act of coping with stress, but also a social practice imbued with symbolic meaning.

KOMODIFIKASI TUBUH PEREMPUAN DALAM IKLAN SMARTWATCH: KAJIAN ANTROPOLOGI KRITIS
Smartwatch advertisements not only function as a medium for promoting technology but also as a space for the production of meanings regarding the body, health, and femininity in contemporary consumer culture. The female body in advertisements is often represented as a symbol of ideal health, productivity, and measurable self-control. This article aims to analyze the practice of commodifying the female body in smartwatch advertisements through a critical anthropological perspective within the framework of power relations and body normalization. This research uses a qualitative approach with visual analysis and critical discourse analysis methods on several advertisements that feature women as the main models. The results show that the female body is not only constructed as a visual object, but also as a moral object that is monitored, measured, and optimized through wearable technology. Smartwatches are positioned as devices that produce gender power relations through visual representations and narratives of health morality. These advertisements normalize ideal body standards while constructing health as a commodity that can be achieved through technology consumption, thus making the female body a primary arena for the operation of capitalism and power.

ANALISIS PELAKSANAAN DAN MAKNA TRADISI WULLA PODDU DALAM KEHIDUPAN SOSIAL BUDAYA MASYARAKAT KAMPUNG TARUNG, SUMBA BARAT
Traditional rituals constitute an essential component of the cultural system of traditional societies, as they embody symbolic, social, and religious values that represent collective identity. This study aims to examine the implementation process and symbolic meanings of the Wulla Poddu tradition in the socio-cultural life of the Tarung Village community, Loli District, West Sumba Regency. The research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, utilizing observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving customary leaders, ritual practitioners, and local community members. The findings indicate that the Wulla Poddu tradition is carried out through eight main stages, tauna marapu, toba wanno, deke kawuku, kaleisuna, massusara, mana’a, kallango, and lulli, which take place over a one-month period and are led by traditional authorities. Each stage contains symbolic meanings associated with reverence for ancestors within the Marapu belief system. Furthermore, the tradition encompasses religious, social, moral, and ecological dimensions that function to strengthen social solidarity, regulate community behavior, and maintain harmony between humans and nature. Functionally, Wulla Poddu serves as a cultural mechanism that sustains social integration and preserves the continuity of traditional values within the community.

KONTESTASI DAN REPRODUKSI RUANG: NEGOISASI MASYARAKAT LOKAL MALINO DI TENGAH HEGEMONI KAPITALISME PARIWISATA
The expansion of tourism development in Malino Subdistrict, Tinggimoncong District, Gowa Regency, has driven significant changes in the structure and function of space. The construction of villas, accommodations, and new tourist destinations has not only increased economic activity but has also triggered the conversion of agricultural land and green spaces into commercial areas. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of spatial production and reproduction resulting from tourism expansion, as well as the position of local communities within these changes. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving local residents, traders, and tourism workers. The data were thematically analyzed and interpreted using David Harvey’s three-dimensional spatial framework, namely absolute space, relative space, and relational space.The findings indicate that tourism expansion in Malino is dominated by capital forces that transform patterns of spatial ownership and utilization, leading to socio-economic inequality and environmental degradation. Within this context, local communities develop spatial reproduction strategies as forms of adaptation and negotiation, including the transformation of residential spaces into economic spaces (such as homestays, food stalls, and tourism services), shifts in livelihoods toward the informal tourism sector, the formation of kinship-based cooperation, and the strengthening of social networks with tourism actors and capital owners. These strategies demonstrate that local communities actively reproduce their living spaces to maintain access, social identity, and livelihood sustainability amid the dominance of capital in Malino’s tourism development.

KONTRUKSI MASKULINITAS DAN SUBKULTUR KEKERASAN (STUDI KRIMINOLOGIS ATAS FENOMENA "BUSUR" DI KALANGAN REMAJA KOTA MAKASSAR)
This study aims to examine the phenomenon of juvenile violence using homemade arrows (busur) in Makassar City through criminological and sociological lenses. The high rate of street crime poses a serious threat to urban community security. This research employs a literature review method by collecting secondary data from various journal articles, textbooks, legal documents, and police reports. The analysis results indicate that this phenomenon is rooted in the distortion of local wisdom Siri' Na Pacce, which is misinterpreted as a justification for communal revenge. Additionally, the construction of hegemonic masculinity drives adolescent boys to prove their bravery through physical aggression and the use of homemade weapons. This subculture of violence is further reinforced by urban spatial segregation ("anak lorong"), the ease of weapon assembly, and widespread provocation via social media. The conclusion of this study emphasizes that repressive law enforcement approaches are insufficiently effective due to the constraints of the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Law (SPPA). The implication is that holistic social policy engineering, such as optimizing the Jagai Anakta program and providing vocational spaces, is required to reintegrate adolescents into conventional and positive social bonds.
