From Tembokan to Sorjan: The History of Martapura Citrus Cultivation in the Banjar Wetland Landscape
This article analyzes the history of Martapura-Sungai Tabuk citrus cultivation as a wetland agrarian landscape of Banjar. Using historical method through heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography, the study combines Donicie's 1942 colonial agronomic report on djeroekcultuur in Bandjermasin-Marabahan and Martapoera with colonial maps, local historical studies, 1992 agribusiness data, contemporary reports on Sungai Tabuk citrus revitalization, and Banjar Regency in Figures 2026. The findings show that Martapura citrus was not merely a horticultural commodity, but an agrarian archive of community adaptation to swamps, lakes, rivers, tembokan, sorjan, trade networks, and changing cultural taste. BPS 2026 data confirm that Sungai Tabuk remains an important producer of siam/keprok citrus in Banjar Regency. The article's novelty lies in reading citrus as a bridge between wetland technology, village economy, trade networks, and Banjar taste memory.

The Hadrami Arab Movement Fights for its Identity in 1934-1942
This study examines the transformation of the identity of the Arab Hadrami community in the Dutch East Indies from a diaspora-oriented identity toward a more inclusive Indonesian national identity during the early 20th century until 1942, using a qualitative historical method. Prior to 1934, the community tended to maintain an exclusive social identity with strong ties to Hadramaut. A significant turning point occurred with the Arab Youth Pledge of 1934, which encouraged younger generations of Arab descendants to identify themselves as part of the Indonesian nation. In the period between 1934 and 1942, their integration became more evident through the roles of organizations, intellectual figures, and participation in socio-political movements. These findings indicate that Indonesian nationalism developed in an inclusive manner by involving diverse ethnic groups, and highlight the important contribution of the Arab Hadrami community in shaping Indonesia’s national identity.
The Impact of the BPPC Clove Trade Policy on the Jambu Bol Cigarette Factory in Kudus (1992–1998)
This study examines the impact of the clove trade policy implemented through the Clove Buffer and Marketing Agency (BPPC) on the Jambu Bol Cigarette Factory in Kudus during the period 1992–1998. The research employs the historical method with an economic history approach and applies Richard Robison's concept of crony capitalism as the analytical framework. Data were collected from the company's internal production records (1987–2000), government regulations on the clove trade, contemporary newspaper reports, and oral history interviews with former employees of the Jambu Bol Cigarette Factory. The findings indicate that the establishment of BPPC transformed the clove trade from a relatively open market into a centralized distribution system. This policy restricted the factory's access to raw materials, increased production costs, and created distribution and administrative obstacles that disrupted production activities. As a result, the factory's production declined from 1.92 billion cigarettes in 1992 to 790.37 million cigarettes in 1997, representing a decrease of more than 59 percent. The decline in production also reduced working hours and workers' incomes. Following the dissolution of BPPC in 1998, the company's production recovered significantly, although the recovery was also influenced by broader national economic and political changes. This study demonstrates that the New Order's clove trade policy affected not only clove farmers as producers but also the sustainability of medium-scale kretek cigarette manufacturers and the socio-economic conditions of their workers.
The Development of the Tiwah Tradition of the Ngaju Dayak Tribe in Kota Baru Village, Kapuas Tengah District, Kapuas Regency

This research aims to examine the development of the Tiwah tradition in Kota Baru Village, Kapuas Tengah District, Kapuas Regency, Central Kalimantan, including its processes, functions, and traditional values. This research uses a historical method, which consists of heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography.

Tiwah is done together when a family member has passed away and still follows Kaharingan. In daily life, they are expected to maintain good relationships between humans, God, ancestor spirits, and the environment. In conclusion, Tiwah is a religious ritual related to followers of Kaharingan in Kota Baru Village. They believe that after performing this ritual, they will not encounter any misfortune.
The Role of Ananda Avalokitesvara Vihara in Religious Pluralism in Rangkasbitung
Indonesia is one of the largest multicultural countries in the world characterized by high diversity of religions, ethnicities, languages, cultures, and traditions. Therefore, according to Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur) sociology of religion, houses of worship are no longer seen solely as places for religious rituals, but also as social institutions that have educational, cultural, and community functions. Therefore, this study aims to be a model of good practice for other religious institutions in building an inclusive, tolerant, and harmonious community life. This study uses a qualitative method (Field Research) with data collection techniques through observations conducted at the Ananda Avalokitesvara Rangkasbitung Temple, interviews with the temple administrators, and documentation. This study resulted in a discussion that initially in 1934 it was named Sam Kaw Hwee then in 1970 changed its name to the Ananda Avalokitesvara Temple. In addition, the Ananda Avalokitesvara Temple has a role in the pluralism of religious harmony in the form of social services, blood donation, distribution of basic necessities, assistance to the underprivileged, assistance for disaster victims, and participation in the Republic of Indonesia's independence parade by displaying Barongsai art, so that this pluralism includes: (1) Humanist pluralism; (2) Cultural pluralism; (3) Dialogic pluralism; (4) Inclusive pluralism.
The Digitalization Transformation of Fashion MSMEs in Bandung 2000 – 2022
This research aims to analyze digital transformation in the fashion Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sector in the city of Bandung over a period of two decades (2000-2022).

Using historical research methods, this article traces the transition of offline sales dominance in industrial and retail centers towards digital technology. Research findings show that the implementation of mobile banking (m-banking) is the main foundation that changes transaction behavior, which is then strengthened by the role of e-commerce platforms as an important role during the transition period. The Covid-19 pandemic was identified as a disruptive factor that paradoxically had a positive impact in the form of accelerating the digital ecosystem for fashion MSMEs to survive in the global market.
The Tradition of Basuluk: Its Influence on the Religious Understanding of Naqshbandi Order Followers in Padang City
Suluk is an activity by isolating oneself or calming oneself down in a quiet and calm place, by carrying out acts of worship such as reciting dhikr, performing prayers, fasting, making istigfar, and other practices. This suluk activity is a form of activity carried out by the congregation or followers of the Naqshbandi Tarekat, one of which is the Naqshbandi Tarekat in Padang City. The method used in this research is the historical method by analyzing literature studies (Library Research). Similar to the congregation or followers of the Naqshbandi Order in Padang City, this suluk has also become a tradition for the religious spiritual activities of the congregation or its followers, which is carried out twice a year. With the suluk activity which is considered a tradition that is always carried out by the congregation or followers of the Naqshbandi Tarekat in Padang City, it has a positive impact on the development of religious understanding of the Naqshbandi Tarekat followers in Padang City, because they can focus more on learning about religion, worship, improving oneself, and other practices, should be done in a quiet place and away from crowds.
The War of the Pen and the Soekarnoism Support Body in the Visualization of Caricatures by Merdeka
This article will explain the caricatures made by Merdeka as a response to the pen war that occurred between Merdeka as the main actor along with various other newspapers that sided with BPS (Soekarnoism Supporting Agency). In this case, the author will use historical research methods that rely on various sources, such as newspapers, magazines, books, journal articles, and published sources. The chaos in the years that was the target of the research made journalists aware to immediately look for other alternatives until they agreed to establish the Soekarnoism Support Agency. Apart from that, the characters that are the objects in Merdeka's caricatures seem odd, especially in terms of anatomy. However, Merdeka should still pay attention to the corridors of polite delivery and avoid things that could actually reduce or even eliminate the weight of the caricature.

The Role of Angkatan Bersendjata Newspaper as a Medium of Political Agitation, 1965–1967
This study aims to examine the role of the Angkatan Bersendjata newspaper as a medium of political agitation during 1965–1967. The research employs the historical method, supported by the authoritarian press theory, political agitation, and political stability as analytical tools. The findings indicate that, following the banning of several anti-communist newspapers during the Guided Democracy period, the publication of Angkatan Bersendjata prior to the September 30th Movement of 1965 played a role in countering the propaganda agitation spread by the mass media under the control of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). In 1966–1967, beyond serving as a government medium during the Guided Democracy era to maintain political stability, this newspaper was also utilized to strengthen the Army’s position in controlling the government by spreading agitation aimed at preventing communist groups from regaining their place in the political arena.
H.Yusuf Haris' Leadership Strategy in Building Muhammadiyah Sintang (1963-1987)
This study examines the strategic role of H. Yusuf Haris in the development of Muhammadiyah in Sintang during the period 1963-1987.

Yusuf Haris played a key role in building the foundation of the Muhammadiyah Sintang organization through institutional consolidation, establishing inclusive schools, and developing Muhammadiyah charitable enterprises, and the implementation of adaptive da’wah strategies in line with the conditions of a multicultural society. The findings show that Muhammadiyah's success in Sintang did not solely depend on the structural support of the central organization, but rather on the ability of local leaders to read socio-political dynamics and formulate adaptive strategies. The contribution of this study lies in enriching local historiography and understanding the dynamics of the modern Islamic movement in the interior of West Kalimantan.
Opening Channels to the Eastern Bloc: The First Indonesia-Yugoslavia Trade Contacts, 1953-1956
This study aims to explain the dynamics of trade diplomacy between Indonesia and Yugoslavia during the period 1953–1956 as part of Indonesia’s early efforts to expand its trade relations with Eastern Bloc countries after independence. This research employs the historical method combined with an economic diplomacy approach to analyze the interplay between foreign policy and national economic interests. The findings show that, in the early 1950s, Yugoslavia was still terra incognita within Indonesia’s foreign trade landscape. In response, the Indonesian government dispatched a trade mission led by R.A. Asmaun to penetrate the Eastern European market and secure new trading partners at a time when industrial expertise was urgently needed to support national economic rehabilitation programs. An important milestone was achieved through the 1953 Trade and Payment Agreement, which formed the basis for a goods exchange valued at 7.25 million USD and opened the way for further cooperation in industrial development, machinery, and infrastructure projects.

The Political Career of Maria Ullfah (1934–1947)
This study examines the trajectory of Maria Ullfah’s political career from 1934 to 1947, focusing on the influence of family background and education on the formation of her political consciousness. Using historical research methods, this study presents findings showing that Maria was born into a well-educated priyayi family, which provided her with broad access to education, culminating in her legal studies at Leiden University. Her intellectual and bureaucratic environment, along with her experiences witnessing injustices faced by women, fostered social awareness and a strong commitment to addressing gender discrimination. Western education and her interactions with nationalist figures such as Sutan Sjahrir further strengthened her awareness as part of a colonized nation. After returning to Indonesia, she became actively involved in women’s organizations, educational activities, the Indonesian Women’s Congress, KOWANI, and literacy eradication efforts. During the revolutionary period, she was entrusted with important roles, including serving as a member of BPUPKI and becoming the first female Minister of Social Affairs. The findings underscore the significant role of family background, education, and personal experiences in shaping Maria Ullfah as a central figure in the women’s movement during Indonesia’s struggle for independence.

This article examines how and why street vendors at Simpang Lima in Semarang were able to continue operating amid the 1998 monetary crisis and the post-crisis period through 2003. This study applies critical history within a socio-economic framework. Critical history, in this context, is understood as a historiographical approach that does not merely reconstruct past events but also provides in-depth analysis of historical sources through heuristic stages source criticism, interpretation, and historiography to better understand socio-economic dynamics.

This study contributes to the historical analysis of the 1998 crisis by emphasizing the economic experiences of informal groups within the context of urban history in Indonesia.
The Role of Mohammad Ichsan in Indonesian Foreign Diplomacy 1945-1960
This study aims to analyze the role of Mohammad Ichsan in Indonesia's foreign diplomacy during the early years of independence. The study is motivated by the tendency of Indonesian diplomatic historiography to focus primarily on major figures such as Soekarno and Mohammad Hatta, while the contributions of other diplomats like Mohammad Ichsan have received far less scholarly attention. This research employs the historical method with a descriptive qualitative approach, following the stages of heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. The sources used in this study include archival documents, photographic archives, and relevant secondary literature. The findings indicate that Mohammad Ichsan did not merely perform administrative duties as a diplomat but also served as a symbolic representative of the state, an actor in socio-cultural diplomacy, and part of the institutional consolidation of Indonesian diplomatic missions abroad.

Purwokerto Wage Market: A Social Historical Perspective (2000-2024)
Pasar Wage is a traditional market that has been operating since the colonial era and was renovated in the 1990s. This market has always experienced dynamics, and in the 2000s a fire occurred that caused various social problems. This study seeks to uncover the social aspects and policies implemented from 2000 to 2024, with a focus on the impact of the fire and the revitalization efforts undertaken by the local government. The research method used is a historical method that includes heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. It utilizes primary sources in the form of local government archives, reports from the Regional Market Technical Implementation Unit (UPTD) I of the Banyumas Regency Industry and Trade Office, and interviews with traders and market managers. The results show that the fire was a turning point that had a significant impact on the decline in economic activity and the social networks of traders. Although the revitalization succeeded in improving the market infrastructure, these efforts have not been able to fully restore the market's socio-economic function. This study confirms that Pasar Wage is a historical space that reflects the relationship between government policies and the socio-economic dynamics of the local community.

Students' Perceptions of Digital Literacy Toward Historical Content on TikTok and YouTube Among Grade XI Students at SMA Negeri 7 Semarang
The advancement of digital technology has encouraged Generation Z students to use TikTok and YouTube as history learning resources; however, their digital literacy skills in evaluating such content remain understudied. This study aims to analyze the perceptions of eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 7 Semarang regarding digital literacy in accessing historical content on TikTok and YouTube. A mixed methods approach with a sequential explanatory design was employed, collecting data through a Likert-scale questionnaire (1–5) distributed to 65 respondents, followed by in-depth interviews with eight informants. The instrument was developed based on four digital literacy competencies proposed by Paul Gilster: internet searching, hypertextual navigation, content evaluation, and knowledge assembly. The findings indicate that students' overall digital literacy falls into the moderate category with a mean score of 3.46 (69.18%). Internet searching (3.54) and knowledge assembly (3.53) were relatively stronger, whereas hypertextual navigation (3.35) and content evaluation (3.44) remained lower. Students perceived historical content on social media as more engaging due to visual and animated presentations; however, their ability to assess source credibility was still superficial. It is concluded that students' digital literacy needs further improvement, particularly in hypertextual navigation and content evaluation, so that they can critically utilize social media in history learning.

This article examines the environmental pollution conflict caused by the activities of a jeans washing factory in Karangdowo Village, Kedungwuni District, Pekalongan Regency in 1997. The main issues of the study include changes in environmental quality due to industrial waste, the social response of residents to the pollution of wells and rice fields, and the dynamics of the relationship between the community, entrepreneurs, and the government in resolving the conflict. This study aims to analyze the impact of small-scale industrialization on the village settlement environment, the forms of community resistance, and the dispute resolution mechanisms pursued. The method used is the historical method with heuristic, verification, interpretation, and historiography stages, through the use of primary sources in the form of contemporary newspapers and archival documents, as well as secondary sources in the form of books and scientific articles. The results of the study show that the disposal of waste without adequate treatment has caused a decline in well water quality and triggered social tensions. Deliberation efforts did not result in an agreement, so residents took civil and criminal legal action. This case shows the weakness of environmental supervision and the bargaining position of the community in dealing with local industry.
From Societeit De Harmonie to the Gedung Rakyat Indonesia: The Transformation of a Building’s Function in Semarang, 1906–1990
This study examines the history and developmental dynamics of Societeit De Harmonie in Semarang from 1906 to 1990. The primary focus of this study is to analyze the transformation of the building’s function and significance from the colonial era through the post-independence period, specifically when it became the Gedung Rakyat Indonesia Semarang (GRIS). This study employs historical methods, specifically heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography, utilizing primary sources such as colonial newspapers accessed via Delpher and national newspapers like Suara Merdeka. The findings reveal that Societeit De Harmonie served as a symbol of exclusivity within the European community and reflected social stratification during the colonial era. In the post-independence era, ownership and function shifted from a private building to a public one that the community could use. Over time, the GRIS building declined due to management conflicts, policy changes, and waning public interest.
The Influence of Mount Sepikul Natural Tourism on Socio-Economic Conditions in Tiyaran Village
This study analyzes the management of the Gunung Sepikul natural tourist attraction in Tiyaran Village and its implications for the socioeconomic conditions of the local community. Using a qualitative methodology, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document reviews involving the village government, POKDARWIS, Karang Taruna, and tourists. Historically, the transformation of this area from agricultural land into a tourist destination was driven by the community’s demographic characteristics, which allowed for adaptability to changes in land use. The study’s findings indicate a synergy among stakeholders within a community-based management model, where the involvement of the productive-age group serves as the cornerstone of environmental conservation. Tourists are drawn to visit Gunung Sepikul due to its unique natural aesthetic appeal and the widespread availability of information via social media. This has significantly impacted improved well-being through the creation of jobs and new business opportunities, although the majority of these remain in the informal sector. However, limitations in infrastructure and service standardization remain challenges that need to be addressed through integrated community capacity-building. Overall, optimizing local participation is the key to ensuring inclusive and sustainable tourism growth in the future.
Behind Plantation Supervision: The Dynamics of ‘Gorek Kopi’ Practices in Bojongrejo Temanggung 1970s-2000s.
This study examines the relationship between the supervision system in the Bojongrejo Temanggung coffee plantations and 'gorek kopi,' which took place during the 1970s to the 2000s. 'Gorek kopi' refers to the activity of picking up and collecting coffee beans that have fallen and scattered in the harvested plantation fields. This research uses historical methods (heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography) based on oral historical sources and through a socio-economic approach. The findings show that the plantation supervision system was carried out through a hierarchical management structure, but in practice, there were still gaps in the plantation areas that could be used for 'gorek kopi' by the local community. When coffee production was high (boom period) from the 1970s to the 1990s, massive 'gorek kopi' activities happened in the Bojongrejo coffee plantations. 'Gorek kopi' served as an informal economic strategy for the local community and has become a collective habit, especially for women. Because of this, the widespread coffee picking creates a local economic network that operates outside the official plantation distribution system and changes according to plantation production dynamics. This study also confirms that informal economic practices don't always arise just because of an economic crisis, but are also driven by high production opportunities and inconsistent oversight, emerging as a rational expression of the community's moral economy, not just as a weakness of institutions.
Local Wisdom of the Cireundeu Traditional Village as a Learning Resource in History Education
History learning at the high school level is still driven by teacher-centered lectures and nation-centric textbooks, so students often struggle to understand the relevance of history to their lives. This study aims to identify forms of local wisdom in the Cireundeu Traditional Village, particularly within the local food security system, and to analyze their relevance as a source of history learning in CP Phase E of the Independent Curriculum in high schools. The study employed a qualitative approach using ethnographic methods, including participant observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis, conducted in April 2026 in the Cireundeu Traditional Village. The results show that the local wisdom of the Cireundeu Traditional Village is multidimensional, encompassing cassava-based food security and rasi, cultural inheritance systems, the traditional Ngemban Taun ritual, as well as the Ngantereuran tradition, which has been practiced since 1918. All of these dimensions are relevant to the material on historical research steps and historical sources in CP Phase E and meet the criteria for economical, practical, flexible, and relevant learning resources.
Challenges Faced by Teachers in Implementing the Merdeka Curriculum Assessment Model
Kurikulum Merdeka is an education policy that transforms learning and assessment in schools by emphasizing learning processes, competencies, and character development. Teachers are required to implement diagnostic, formative, and summative assessments but still face challenges such as limited understanding, training, time constraints, administrative burdens, and difficulty assessing non-cognitive aspects. This study aims to analyze teachers' role in assessment under Kurikulum Merdeka, the challenges encountered, and efforts to address them using a descriptive qualitative literature study approach. Data were collected from journals, scientific articles, and relevant literature, then analyzed to examine assessment implementation. Results show that implementation still faces obstacles; therefore continuous training, simplified administration, technology use, and support from schools and government are needed to optimize assessment practices. Thus, teachers play a crucial role in ensuring effective assessment that supports student competency and character development through continuous improvement, collaboration, and educational policy support in school environments implementation and practice process.
Exploring the Effect of the Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Based Learning Media on the Self-Confidence of History Education Students in Microteaching Practice
This study aims to explore the influence of the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based learning media on students' self-confidence in microteaching practice. This research is based on the increasingly widespread use of AI in the learning process, particularly as a tool for teaching preparation, classroom simulations, and teaching performance evaluation. This study uses qualitative research methods with a qualitative descriptive approach to answer the research questions by describing the Microteaching learning activities and measuring the effectiveness of prospective history teachers' competencies. The results of this study indicate that the use of AI-based learning media positively contributes to increasing student self-confidence. This influence is evident in students' ability to prepare teaching materials more effectively, simulate material delivery, and receive rapid and accurate feedback on their teaching performance. Furthermore, AI helps students reduce anxiety, improve communication clarity, and build self-awareness of weaknesses and potential improvements. This study recommends more systematic integration of AI training into microteaching to support the improvement of pedagogical competence and self-confidence of prospective educators.
