After that, the political constellation and contestation in Aceh were not dominated by national parties but was influenced by the local dimension, namely the local party and former members of the movement who are involved in practical politics. Political stages as a new means of struggle to realize the ideals of post-peace produce satisfying results, former combatants and local parties succeed in winning Aceh political contestation. its means that the people of Aceh have high expectations to local parties to build Aceh. Thus, the decline of the national party since the 2009 election shows that public trust for the national party is very low. The victory of local parties in political contestation in Aceh would certainly be a signal for national parties to make changes to accommodate local interests and movement's actors in a composition of the party in Aceh....

In the context of conflict, Aceh has become a medium for learning how the political conflict between GAM and the Indonesian government is resolved. The experience of past conflicts, a series of failed negotiations, and the cultural approach to the Helsinki negotiations, in parallel, serve as important lessons and evidence that “historical-humanism” does not work in a vacuum. This article illustrates that a cultural approach is a key to successful negotiations for a resolution. This is due to several things: first, building an estuary of peace with a cultural approach taking into account the representations and interests of the two conflicting parties, related to technicalities and mechanisms and matters of a substantive nature. Second, understanding and appreciating the perspective of...

The authors used a descriptive qualitative approach finishing this article. The data in this article sourced from observations, studies of literature, and other sources considered relevant and then analyzed by the social exchange theory of Peter Blau. The results of this study indicate that the high concern of societies watching the lives of poor people in various charity show programs besides creating profits for the company, it is also as media of political communication for the owner. When political actors control the media, there are interests communicated, including getting support from voters. That means charity show programs not only given a numerous business profit but also enhanced social branding in front of audiences and built a base of loyal voters from poor family beneficiaries by unbalanced social exchange...

But in practice, modernity often lacks reflection. Wedding processions in modern Gayo communities illustrate this reality. The depth of meaning through symbols and social actions in every stage of the traditional Gayo wedding procession is beginning to be displaced by the ceremonial lack of understanding that tends to be rushed and infiltrated by global culture. This study documents the knowledge and subjective meaning of Gayo traditional actors regarding the tradition of sinte mungerje marriage by identifying sacred spaces and ritual spaces, then how the modern Gayo people interpret and act based on the observations of research informants. This qualitative research uses in-depth interview techniques in the data collection process. This research found that the essence of sinte mungerje was spirituality and communality nuances characterized by sacred and ritual activity stages. However, this set of norms is no longer institutional...

I argue that the general response of the Acehnese community can be seen from the representation of masks, stickers and scatter. The representation of this response to Covid-19 shows that the Acehnese people have lost their vision of a future such as a socio-cultural order in organizing their life cycle. Even if we look at the historically or trajectory starting from the Aceh war with the Netherlands and the Covid 19 pandemic, it shows that the harmonious order between the boundaries of the world and the hereafter has not remained in the cultural memory of society. I use ethnographic methods in the data collection process to see the extent of the relationship between the general public responses to survival against Covid 19. Based on the analysis that the author has conducted on ethnographic data; I conclude that currently the people of...

The data in this paper is sourced from relevant literature and the author's experience while active in educational activities. The results of this study indicate that the bureaucracy in the form of educational administration has changed to an iron cage that shackles the educational activity itself. The delivery of education loses its orientation and turns into ceremonial routines to meet the demands of the bureaucracy. Various training, capacity building, and teacher competence have been done, but they have not significantly changed the face of education. Iron cage bureaucracy makes teachers "appear" to be developing their competence, but in fact, they are meeting the demands of the bureaucracy. Education must come out of the iron cage bureaucracy by reducing all administrative aspects that bind the noble...

Since that time then, GAM has become a platform for movement and rebellion for the majority of Acehnese to demand independence. In 2005 after the Tsunami disaster struck Aceh, the dispute between GAM and the Indonesian Government found a meeting point with the signing of the Helsinki MoU and at the same time became a door to peace in Aceh after almost 30 years of conflict. Post the MoU, GAM no longer raised weapons, but his struggle still alive and GAM as a social-political movement still exist, because the Helsinki MoU only disperse the force of their armed, while the ideas, structure, and actors transformed in the form of a political movement. Keywords-Aceh, GAM; political movement; transformation I. INTRODUCTION Various momentum and events that took place in Aceh gave birth to many works and studies on Aceh. It is not difficult to find literature that talks about Aceh. As an area that was first embraced by Islam, Aceh became the basis for the study of the development of Islam in the archipelago. The triumph and sophistication of the kingdom of Aceh is also an interesting study in the realm of history. Until then the resilience and resistance of the Acehnese people against the Dutch in the era of colonialism also became an interesting study. The rebellion against the Indonesian government of which emerged after the independence of Indonesia, the upheaval of DI/TII and the movement free Aceh brought a considerable impact on the community, especially when the determination of Aceh as a Military Operations Area (DOM). The conflict study was quite adequate about the rebellion of Aceh at that time. Belonging to the conflict resolution process, starting from the momentum of the referendum, the implementation of Islamic law, to the peace agreement reached in 2005 after the Tsunami. After the Tsunami, the study of Aceh became widespread, not only about the conflict but also about Tsunami, refugees, Islamic law, gender issues, reconstruction, and rehabilitation. After the peace agreement was signed, Aceh's socio-political dynamics changed significantly. The MoU and the UUPA have changed the social and political structure of the Acehnese. The political arena has become a new contestation arena after the conflict. When the UUPA and qanun about political parties ratified, the political constellation and contestation no longer dominated by the national elite (Jakarta) but was colored by local dimensions filled by former members of the movement (Ikramatoun & Amin, 2018). Although the conflict was over and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) returned to the Republic of Indonesia, the buffetings ideas fought during the conflict still have an existence. Nuhasim (2009)mentions that GAM activities in the political sphere clearly shows, GAM made significant changes in its, and the transformation had a significant impact on the dynamics of local politics and the elite socioeconomic activities of GAM. Therefore, this article aims to discuss how the process of GAM transformation from the rebellion to a political movement based on the genealogical movement that developed in Aceh across history. This paper also talks about negotiations and sociopolitical factors that influence GAM social transformation, including the dynamics of context, structure and movement actors. II. METHOD This study conducted using qualitative methods with an analytical, descriptive model. The purpose of this method to describe the nature of the situation and examine the causes of a particular event (Meleong, 2010: 6). The data in this paper sourced from passive observation and interviews, as well as literature studies as secondary data in the form of Helsinki MoU documents and UUPA, as well as results related to the theme of this study. Furthermore, the process of data analysis is carried out by developing the linkages between data from informants and paying attention to data that is not explicitly seen (Neuman, 2003: 457).

One of these is charity show programs. The high rating and concern societies watching the lives of poor people in various charity programs show besides creating profits also become a means of political communication. When political actors control the media, it is clear that there are interests also communicated, including the political powers of the funnel to get support from voters. When the Perindo Party is declared, the "scent" that HT and his party would use the media under their control is very clear. These signals can also be observed from the dominance of HT’s trusted people in the MNC Group in the composition of the Central Management Board Center, the Assembly of the Union Party and the court of Perindo party. That mean a charity program not only gives a very big business profit, but also...
