The pesantren tradition : a study of the role of the kyai in the maintenance of the traditional ideology of Islam in Java
This is a study of the role of the Kyai in the development of the pesantren (Islamic training centres for advanced studies) tradition on Java, beginning in the latter
part of the nineteenth century. It is based on field work conducted between September 1977 and September 1978 in two pesantren: Tebuireng and Tegalsari. These two pesantren
provide the principal material for an examination of the way in which pesantren throughout Java have successfully survived
and grown amidst the transformation of modern life in Indonesia.
This study is an attempt to examine (l) the Kyais 1 efforts to preserve the pesantren tradition, (2) the Kyais 1 efforts to develop the pesantren institutions to meet the needs of modern life, and (3) the contribution of the pesantren to the creation of the ideology of ahlissunnah
wa l jama ah (followers of the Prophet and ulama tradition) among Muslims on Java. The pesantren have helped to create the unity of ahlissunnah wa’ l jama'ah among Muslims by (1) standardizing the Islamic texts taught
and the religious rituals practised in the pesantren, and (2) providing and controlling the leadership of the tarekat orders on Java.
I have set out to examine the various social
and intellectual means by which the Kyai have succeeded in preserving the pesantren tradition through the establishment of solidarity and cooperation among
themselves. Thus the Kyai have developed (1) a complex tradition for the intellectual transmission of knowledge among themselves, (2) a tradition in which immediate
relatives become potential successors, and (3) a tradition of endogamous marriage alliances that link Kyai families
to one another. The Kyai have participated in the modern life of Indonesia through the reformation of pesantren education;
this has been achieved while maintaining links with the main stream of Islamic tradition. Instead of rejecting
the traditional ideology of Islam, they have been successfully re-interpreting the ideology of ahlissunnah wa'l jama ah.
The continuous deepening of the Islamic faith and the growth of faithful Muslim communities centered around the Kyai are evidence of the vitality which the Kyai have
shown in the face of secularist tendencies in Java in the twentieth century
Social interaction in Jakarta : a study of the relations between the Betawenese and newcomers
In September 1975, Jakarta Governor Ali Sadikin
issued an order that the eleven newly-built luxury houses
in Condet East Jakarta had to be demolished to preserve the
originality of the Betawenese community in this area. The
reason for the order was partly to satisfy the Betawenese
community in Jakarta, which criticised the policy of the
Jakarta Administration, that suburbanisation of the fringe
area of Jakarta had caused the Betawenese to be driven out.
It is questionable whether the Governor's order
will satisfy the Betawenese, since it does not solve the
fundamental problems faced by their community.
This thesis attempts to present a comprehensive
picture of the fundamental problems which led the Betawenese
to protest against the policy of suburbanisation of the
fringe area of Jakarta

Pesantren are Islamic educational institution unique to Indonesia. After developing into a modern Islamic educational institutions, now boarding summarizes Islamic education: education using Western methods and the national education system. Prior to 1989, there is a duality in the national education system. Public education institutions are adopting modern Western education in the field of science and technology under the Ministry of Education and Culture (Department of Education), while religious institutions, including boarding schools, under the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MORA). But once it has started early steps are required to compromise the two patterns of educational institutions.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v1i2.85
