THE INTEGRATION OF KNOWLEDGE AND UIN SYARIF HIDAYATULLAH JAKARTA
- Authors: Kusmana Kusmana
  Pages: 19 - 36
  Abstract: In this chance, the integration is discussed in the context of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah
  in some important points, those are, what UIN has and wants as well as where UIN
  will take its development of institution with this integration of knowledge. The understanding of knowledge integration is framed in the meaning of dialogue interaction in which knowledge, science, and religion are proportionally and openly positioned for coexistence and interaction. When the book of Scientific Integration was written, UIN’s vision and mission were directed to develop Research University. Meanwhile, the next direction of development up to now continues the previous wisdom by promoting its wish to the level over it; that is, leading to World Class University. In fact, the developmental core of the two aspirations is the same; that is, to increase the research tradition at UIN Jakarta. New identity formulation through scientific integration formulation and new aspiration formulation actually constitutes the institutional endeavors to fill ruh (spirit) over the process of transformation and new institutional existence; that is university.

‘ARABNESS’ AS SOCIAL CAPITAL IN MADURA
- Authors: Mirjam Lucking
  Pages: 37 - 46
  Abstract: The construction of “Self” and “Other” is a crucial element in the conception of
  identity. The practice of ‘othering’ goes along with an orientation towards ‘other’
  places and is related to the broader perceptions of the world. The ideas of other
  places become increasingly diverse going beyond binary oppositions of ‘Orient’ and
  ‘Occident’ and “contemporary world-historical processes are disrupting received geographies of core and periphery”. Previous research, done by my colleagues in the research project “Beyond Occidentalism”, in the Freiburg Southeast Asian Studies interdisciplinary research group, has shown that in Indonesia it is no longer the ‘West’ that is the ultimate reference point but a variety of new imagined centres. Among others the ‘Arab World’ appears to be a relevant imagined centre and ‘Arabic style’ is a trend in some contexts, as for instance in Madura. My research project concerns images of the ‘Arab World’ in Indonesia, questioning how people in Indonesia position themselves towards the ‘Arab World’. Initially I started the research in Central Java. During my investigations I was often told that Madurese people are particularly attracted by the ‘Arab World’ and I thus decided to include Madura as a comparative research site in my research.

ISLAM AND PROBLEMS OF STATE: CONSIDERING THE POSITION OF SHARIA IN
DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY INDONESIA
- Authors: Nurrohman Nurrohman
  Pages: 47 - 62
  Abstract: The jargon stating that humans are social beings seems to have become the
  proportion accepted by Islamic thinkers from past to present. Neither of the Islamic
  experts refuses the fact that to be able to develop their self-potencies and
  humanitarianism, human beings impossibly can live alone without requiring
  someone else’s aids or helps. However, when they talk about the relationship
  between religion and power, Islam and politics or Islam and state, not all of the
  Islamic experts have the same viewpoints. Their distinction in history can be investigated from the difference among them in seeing what is the main mission brought by Prophet Muhammad, is it right that Prophet Muhammad is as the head of state' If yes, is it part of his treatise mission or part of the tactics, procedure or ijtihad (reinterpretation) in his efforts to build egalitarian society guided by the universal moral values.

LOCAL POWER AND MUHAMMADIYAH IN KOTAGEDE
- Authors: Priyambudi Sulistiyanto
  Pages: 63 - 76
  Abstract: There has been a few studies on Kotagede with given focus on local architecture,
  cultural tourism, local politics and identity and the post-2006 earthquake inquiry but
  none of them has a calibre of that of Nakamura’s.Overall, it is must be acknowledged that not much been written on this subject with a great depth
  since Nakamura did field work in early 1970s and this left a big gap on the
  scholarship on Kotagede. This gap of knowledge is seriously needed to be filled
  because the findings of Nakamura’s study were basically based from the political and
  social changes occurred in Kotagede over past four decades.

HISTORIOGRAPHY OF JAPANESE “ISLAMIC POLICY” IN INDONESIA
- Authors: Saiful Umam
  Pages: 77 - 88
  Abstract: Japanese occupation in Southeast Asia, specifically in Indonesia, was very short
  compared to the Western colonialism in the region. It was only about three and half
  years, 1942-1945. However, many scholars have studied the period and a number of books and articles have been produced. Almost all of them note the importance of the short period in changing socio-political condition of the occupied areas.
  The propaganda of Japan when she landed to the region was to build “the Greater East Asia,” and “Co-Prosperity Sphere.” To realize that, Japan tried to win support from as many population as possible in the occupied territory, so that she cooperated with those who really had influence on the grass-root level with the objective that mobilization would be successful. Japan was in need of natural and human resources for war purposes. In Indonesia, more precisely in Java, Japan used ulama or kiyai (religious leaders/scholars) as her main agents of the propaganda. This is why the term “Islamic policy” is usually used by scholars who study the Japanese occupation in the region.

The Relationship Between Values and Interests
- Authors: Samia Maqbool Niazi
  Pages: 89 - 112
  Abstract: Some writers equate values with interests. Philipp Heck defines interests, which he treats as synonymous with values, as “all things that man holds dear, and all ideals which guide man’s life. ”There are many writers who distinguish between the two concepts and go into the details of the distinction, as is explained below. There is an apparent relationship between interests, principles, rules, values, objectives and other similar terms. Our main purpose is to find the link between interests and values, because the term interest dominates all legal discourse. In simple terms, interests recognized and enforced by law become rights. To elaborate the meaning of interests in relation to values, we need to refer to the work of Roscoe Pound, however briefly.
