Membaca Pemikiran Victor Frankl Dalam Konflik Timor Leste
Tulisan ini berupaya menggali relevansi pemikiran Viktor E. Frankl, khususnya logoterapi dan pencarian makna dalam penderitaan, terhadap konflik dan tragedi kemanusiaan yang terjadi di Timor Leste. Dengan pendekatan filosofis-eksistensial, penelitian ini membaca ulang pengalaman kolektif masyarakat Timor Leste, baik dalam masa pendudukan maupun pasca-kemerdekaan, melalui pemikiran Frankl, yang menekankan bahwa manusia tetap memiliki kebebasan batin untuk memberi makna pada penderitaannya. Konflik Timor Leste tidak hanya menyisakan luka sejarah, tetapi juga menyimpan potensi untuk penemuan makna eksistensial di tengah keterpurukan. Dengan merujuk pada prinsip-prinsip logoterapi, tulisan ini menunjukkan bagaimana individu dan komunitas di Timor Leste dapat mengubah penderitaan menjadi kekuatan batin, dan trauma menjadi kekuatan transformatif dalam membangun rekonsiliasi dan kemanusiaan. Studi ini berkontribusi pada pemahaman lintas-disiplin antara psikologi eksistensial dan studi konflik, serta menawarkan pendekatan spiritual-humanistik dalam merawat luka bangsa.

Honour Atau Horor: Representasi Tubuh Perempuan Dalam Sinema Indonesia
Artikel ini mengkaji representasi tubuh perempuan dalam tiga sinema horor Indonesia karya Joko Anwar, yaitu Pengabdi Setan (2017), Perempuan Tanah Jahanam (2019), dan Ratu Ilmu Hitam (2019) yang menempatkan tubuh perempuan dalam dimensi honour (pesona) dan horor (teror). Dalam perspektif fenomenologi agama (Eliade, Otto), teori monstrous feminine (Creed), dan maternal horror (Winda), artikel ini mendeskripsikan bagaimana tubuh perempuan berperan sebagai hierofani yang memunculkan mysterium tremendum et fascinans, simbol pengorbanan, manifestasi kekuatan gaib, dan representasi ambivalensi dalam kosmologi Jawa. Kajian tekstual dan sinematografi mengungkapkan dialektika antara patriarki, trauma kolektif, dan resistensi. Relevansi kajian ini terletak pada kontribusinya pada studi gender dan kultur di Indonesia, di mana narasi horor dalam sinema Indonesia merefleksikan dan membentuk persepsi publik mengenai jati diri perempuan. Tubuh perempuan ditarik dalam dua kutub paradoksal, antara yang sakral dan profan; antara honour dan horor.

Pancasila sebagai Landasan Filosofis Hukum Negara Indonesia: Refleksi di tengah Carut-marut Permasalahan Hukum di Indonesia
Tulisan ini adalah respon kritis dan reflektif terhadap situasi implementasi hukum di Indonesia yang cenderung digunakan demi kepentingan politik partisan. Pancasila sebagai nilai filosofis dan ideologi negara Indonesia tentu menjadi dasar dan sumber nilai pelaksanaan hukum, namun dalam beberapa kasus yang terjadi belakangan ini, prinsip tersebut tampak terkikis. Fenomena tersebut tampak dalam hukum yang cenderung digunakan sebagai fungsi instrumentalisasi dan pragmatis untuk mengalahkan lawan politik atau juga melanggengkan dominasi kekuasaan. Fenomena tersebut berpotensi menciptakan apatisme masyarakat terhadap proses penegakan hukum sehingga kehilangan kepercayaan terhadap aparat penegak hukum. Tulisan ini dikaji dengan menggunakan pendekatan filosofis, mengkaji aspek yuridis normatif dengan analisis dan respon terhadap kebijakan dan keputusan hukum, dan pendekatan kritis dengan mempertimbangkan dimensi historis, ideologis, dan sosiologis dalam struktur hukum Indonesia Melalui studi literatur. Penelitian ini penting untuk memperluas wawasan literasi dan diskusi mengenai evaluasi ideologis dalam praktik hukum Indonesia khususnya yang berkaitan dengan nilai Pancasila. Selain itu, untuk memperluas wawasan demi menegaskan marwah nilai hukum yang mempunyai ruh dan integritas dalam nilai Pancasila.

The Power of Religion in Indonesia’s Public Sphere Discourses – A Philosophical Perspective
Makalah ini merupakan kajian tentang pembentukan dan praktik agama diskursif dalam ranah publik Indonesia. Agama merupakan salah satu dimensi fundamental dalam struktur politik Indonesia. Oleh karena itu, agama perlu direfleksikan secara rasional dan terbuka agar tidak terjebak pada pandangan eksklusif yang dapat mengarah pada fundamentalisme dan radikalisme. Filsafat telah menjadi mitra dalam diskusi agama sejak Era Yunani, diperkuat pada Abad Pertengahan, diperdebatkan pada Era Modern, dan mengalami proses redefinisi pada Era Postmodern. Eksplorasi kekuasaan agama dalam teks dan konteks Indonesia dimulai pada masa transisi dari Sukarno ke Suharto (1960–1998) hingga situasi terkini (1998–2023). Dalam dinamika tersebut, kekuasaan agama tampak mendominasi pola pikir dan tindakan masyarakat.

Political Polarization in the 2024 Election: The Pros and Cons of Prabowo as President in the Shadow of 1997/1998
Indonesia’s 2024 presidential election marks a critical juncture in the country’s democratic development, characterized by increasing political polarization. Prabowo Subianto’s renewed candidacy has triggered intense public debate between supporters and critics. This polarization stems not only from ideological and political identity differences but is also reinforced by social media dynamics and lingering public memory of the 1997/1998 reform era, where Prabowo remains a controversial figure. This paper aims to analyze the causes of political polarization in the context of Prabowo’s candidacy, evaluate the arguments for and against him, and examine how historical narratives shape public perception. Employing a qualitative-descriptive method through literature review, the study finds that issues of human rights, militaristic leadership style, and political communication strategies significantly shape public opinion. While some reject Prabowo due to unresolved historical trauma, others see his transformation and leadership experience as valuable assets. This study concludes that political education and neutral media play a vital role in mitigating polarization and reinforcing the foundations of democracy.

THE URGENCY OF REROOTING THE SHAME IN THE LIVES OF INDONESIAN POLITICIANS: An Ethical Philosophical Analysis
Shame is often ignored in Indonesian political discourse even though it is important in controlling the practical morality of politics and building public trust. Through library research methods, this article explores the relationship between shame, ethics and contemporary Indonesian political praxis. The view of this article is that shame, as an ability among various aspects of human emotion that shapes human behavior, has disappeared from the lives of Indonesian politicians. Shame, as a moral catalyst and also embedded in national culture, is ignored in the lives of politicians. This is proven by various forms of unethical behavior in Indonesian political life, which ultimately harms Indonesia's rational and moral democratic order. Indonesia's political landscape is now filled with intrigue, ambition and dishonesty, manifesting in corruption, collusion, nepotism, patronage, policies that are detrimental to the people and oligarchic spirit. Based on various sources of ethical theory and political phenomena in Indonesia, this article emphasizes that shame needs to be immediately rooted again, in a constructive direction. This can be achieved through ethics-based political education, electoral system reform, strengthening the role of the media, and implementing strict sanctions.

Menakar Yang Kreatif dalam Demokrasi Komunikatif
This paper discusses creativity within Iris Marion Young's communicative democracy. The analysis of creativity in Young's communicative democracy focuses on the tension between the informal communication model proposed by Young through everyday communication such as greetings, rhetoric, and narrative (storytelling), and the procedural and rational argumentative models in deliberative democracy. On one hand, the rational argumentative model is considered the best way to achieve consensus, but on the other hand, this model is seen as betraying the participation of ordinary people who generally not only lack access to power structures but also have limited rational capabilities. Young's communicative democracy model is viewed as an alternative way to address this practical deadlock. This paper aims to present a new perspective in the field of political philosophy about an alternative way of thinking that may overcome the procedural rigidity in deliberative democracy. The method used in writing this paper is descriptive and critical analysis, which aims not only to provide an overview of the ideas of communicative democracy and the tensions surrounding these ideas, but also to explore the possibility of linking communicative democracy with an understanding of creativity. The findings suggest that Young's communicative democracy is best understood as creativity in democracy for the purpose of justice for all.

Konsep Eros Dan Agape Dalam Kehidupan Manusia Menurut Anders Nygren
Eros, as love associated with self-desire and self-gratification, contrasts with Agape, which is genuine love prioritizing the welfare of others above oneself. This article employs a literary analysis method to explore how these two concepts influence and interact within the dynamics of human relationships, both spiritually and interpersonally. The findings indicate that a profound understanding of Eros and Agape can enrich and deepen the meaning of authentic human relationships, offering a fresh perspective on how love can transform and affirm human dignity in the context of relationships with others and with God. Insights from Eros and Agape contribute to expanding our understanding of love in human life and its relevance in broader social and spiritual contexts

Pancasila Sebagai Alternatif Solusi Ideologi Era Postmodern
The postmodern era, as described by Jean-François Lyotard, is characterized by a deep paradigm of relativism, where truth and values are seen not as absolute but contingent upon perspectives and contexts. After World War II, the world was divided into two major ideological forces, Liberalism and Communism, which competed in the Cold War for global dominance. Although, after the Cold War, Liberalism was deemed relevant to the post-conflict world, various debates indicate that this ideology is not fully capable of addressing the challenges posed by relativism in the postmodern era. In this context, this study employs a qualitative approach with a literature review method to explore the relevance of Pancasila as an alternative solution to the complexities of postmodern relativism. The author argues that Pancasila, with its inclusive and universal values, offers an ideology that can provide stability and integration in a society that is increasingly plural and fragmented.

Fenomena Hate Speech (Ujaran Kebencian) Di Indonesia Dalam Tinjauan Filsafat Manusia
Tulisan ini berfokus pada fenomena hate speech (ujaran kebencian) yang terjadi dalam realitas kehidupan manusia terutama dalam konteks Indonesia sebagai negara multikultural. Perkembangan teknologi komunikasi yang semakin pesat menjadi lahan subur bagi penyebaran hate speech karena komunikasi sudah dapat digunakan melalui jarak jauh yaitu dengan melalui berbagai platform media sosial. Metode yang digunakan dalam tulisan ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif: studi atas berbagai referensi yang membahas fenomena hate speech yang kemudian ditelusuri dalam telaah ilmu filsafat manusia terutama dalam hal komunikasi manusia, kesadaran manusia akan kehadiran yang lain, dan kebebasan manusia sebagai makhluk yang otonom terutama dalam berpendapat. Hal yang dapat penulis temukan melalui tulisan ini adalah bahwa hate speech terjadi karena manusia hanya mengandalkan perasaan dan kebebasan kehendak dalam berhadapan dengan yang lain. Manusia masih kurang sadar bahwa kehidupannya tidak dapat dilepaskan dari peranan yang lain. Hate speech membuat antara manusia sebagai subjek ‘aku’ dengan yang lain saling membenci dan memusuhi. Maka, tinjauan filsafat manusia ini berusaha untuk membangun kembali kesadaran manusia sebagai ‘being with the others’ (ada bersama yang lain) sehingga manusia seharusnya lebih mengutamakan upaya persahabatan dan kerukunan daripada membuat suatu permusuhan dan kebencian satu sama lain.

Darurat Demokrasi: Krisis Keadilan Dan Bias Kepentingan
Democracy emergencies often become a phenomenon and issue in Indonesia. Responses to this issue are certainly very diverse. There are biases and prejudices directed at the state of democracy in Indonesia. At the concrete and practical level, democracy itself is a tool to achieve common goals. However, on the other hand, democracy is in an emergency condition because it has been used as a non-transparent tool, and democracy is even used as a means to perpetuate the pursuit of interests. This research aims to provide new discourse and insights into the crisis situation and democratic bias that is occurring, while also trying to find answers regarding the political role of citizens in overcoming the crisis. The method used in the activities is the qualitative discourse method through literature study, observation, and focus group discussion. (FGD). The research results indicate that the issues of demos and krator need to be returned to their essence, both conceptually and in practice, in the political life of the nation and state. Individuals who are called to enter the world of politics and run a democracy need to be accompanied by knowledge and experience (arête). The practice of democracy becomes effective when those involved in political decision-making are able to perform their duties and produce policies that do not lead to the common good. If placed in the context of Indonesia, Pancasila should become a source and inspiration for democracy that prioritises common interests and justice.

Navigating the Democratic Crisis: Indonesia’s Journey Through Political Ethics, Law, and Social Change
This article explores the crisis narrative surrounding the erosion of democracy in Indonesia, with a particular emphasis on political and ethical responsibilities. It examines the prevailing consensus on the consequences, factors, and conceptualization of democracy, especially concerning political trust and ethical governance. The discussion underscores how democracy evolves by deconstructing and reshaping societal structures, drawing on Kantian philosophy and the core pillars of democratic society. The paper highlights the inherent flaws in democratic principles, demonstrating how these imperfections permit varying degrees of freedom within societal practices. It advocates for the value of cultivating a culture of open, public discourse aboutcollective societal objectives. However, it also points out that the actual practice of lawmaking, implementation, and enforcement often deviates from its doctrinal ideals, particularly when the law’s purported impartiality contrasts with its impact on marginalized communities. These inconsistencies are examined as outcomes of the exercise of political power, illustrating that the law is shaped by political morality and legitimacy rather than being wholly independent. Furthermore, the article delves into the decline of democracy by engaging in dialogue about the process of its deterioration, rather than simply questioning the reasons behind it. This study also explores democracy and philosophy both in theory and practice, framing law as a reflective inquiry into the democratic process. Ultimately, it advocates for the political concepts of democracy to be subjected to scientific analysis and validation.

Pemikiran Kuki Shuzo Mengenai Konsep Iki dan Relevansinya pada Estetika Modern
This article intends to explore the concept of iki aesthetics and investigate its relevance to modern aesthetics. The method used in this article is qualitative, a literature study that specifically focuses on using the thoughts of the philosopher Kuki Shuzo in the book The Structure of Iki. The results show that iki consists of bitai, ikiji, and akirame and that iki is also still relevant for modern aesthetics. In conclusion, iki evokes a certain kind of sensibility through the tension that emerges through dualistic relationships. And this unique form of sensibility proves to still be very relevant in modern aesthetics. This is proven by the fact that Japanese aesthetics are also in demand by people outside of Japan and that there are still various inquiries into modern aesthetics whilst takin into account the role of iki.

Modernity, Globalization, and Human Civilization
The study of modernity reveals significant transformations in both space and time, accompanied by a shift from traditional to digital modes of thinking. Anthony Giddens, a prominent scholar in the discourse of modernity, emphasizes the interconnectedness of capitalism, industrialism, surveillance, and military power, highlighting their inseparability. Capitalism operates as a system of commodity production, centered on the relationship between private capital rights and labor devoid of ownership rights. Industrialism involves the efficient utilization of material resources for production purposes. Surveillance encompasses the collection, control, and supervision of information and individual activities, particularly in political domains. Meanwhile, military power characterizes a modern state's ability to monopolize the use of mobilizing forces. The main issue to be researched is how the interconnectedness of capitalism, industrialism, surveillance, and military power in the context of modernity influences the social dynamics of society. This research is significant in understanding the complex network of modern society and addressing the challenges faced, particularly regarding rapid social changes and the complexity of relationships between economic, political, and military forces.

Upaya Pencegahan Polarisasi Politik di Tahun Pemilu 2024
This article aims to discuss efforts to prevent political polarization in the 2024 election year by using library data collection methods. The results of this research are that political polarization can occur in any situation and condition especially during elections, public policy, socio-cultural issues including post-debate issues for the Presidential and Vice Presidential Candidates. The causes of political polarization are none other than political parties, mass media, regional expansion, political context and society's political ideology. Political polarization has positive and negative impacts. However, of these two impacts, there are more negative impacts. The negative impacts that can be caused by political polarization are the creation of divisions, damage to democratic institutions, loss of credibility of political parties, impact on government, and reduced credibility of society, while the positive impacts of political polarization are strengthening relationships and increasing participation in politics. Political polarization will very easily occur when the public or supporters are easily carried away by issues circulating in society such as differences in ideology, choices and principles between one camp and another. Several efforts can be made to prevent political polarization, namely: the public must be able to sort and choose the issues circulating and not be too fanatical about their choices, instill and implement the values of Pancasila, and implement the value of harmonization of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika.

Memikirkan Ulang Fondasi Definitif Filosofis dari Fotografi
This text discusses the problematic nature of photography since its inception. This disposition arises because photography is a manifestation of the dualistic thinking pattern matured by René Descartes and radicalized by Immanuel Kant. Photography, which began in the 19th century, was analog and relied on the permanent traces of time caused by chemical reactions. The strong claim of photography against the singularity of artistic work positions it as a threat to the value of art on one hand, while on the other, photography opens up various new approaches to artistic expression. Around 150 years after its birth, photography faced a serious challenge: even with digital technology, which eliminates the permanence of time traces, photography was considered "dead." This perceived death of photography led to ideological approaches viewing the existence of photography as post-medium discourse. By examining the development of major literature during the transition from analog to digital photography, this ideological approach further guides the discourse on photography as a metatheoretical and paradigmatic area. By shedding temporal elements, the discourse on photography moves more agilely within the framework of complex material monism—becoming a way of existing in a non-dualistic knowledge structure.

Portrayals Of The Dutch Colonial Tea Plantation In Hella Haasse’s "The Tea Lords" (1992)
This research entitled "Portrayals of The Dutch Colonial Tea Plantation in Hella Haasse’s The Tea Lords (1992)," examines how the Dutch colonial tea plantation in Java is depicted in the novel. Set during Dutch colonization in the 19th century in the East Indies, the study uses the new historicism theoretical framework to analyze various portrayals of the plantation and their impact on East Indies society, culture, and economics. Employing qualitative methods, the researcher explores the historical context presented in the novel and history books to uncover the link between literary and non-literary texts. Findings reveal that the plantation significantly influenced East Indies society, culture, and economics, with the setting playing a central role in the narrative, providing readers with a deeper understanding of colonialism's impact. The research exposes economic disparities, highlighting exploitation and hierarchy in social and labor dynamics. Analysis of the Kerkhoven family sheds light on their challenges and moral dilemmas. Identity negotiation amid colonialism is explored, with the author's Dutch background influencing the novel's narration and conveying views on historical events. The study concludes that literature like The Tea Lords can challenge established historical narratives and is intertwined with broader cultural discourse.

The focus of this research is to delve into the concept of humanity according to the Dayak Wehea, examined through Ernst Cassirer's philosophy. The Dayak Wehea upholds a distinctive tradition of customs that remains practiced by a significant portion of their community. These customary traditions include rituals surrounding birth, marriage, and death, which inherently contain a wealth of anthropological and philosophical values specific to the Dayak Wehea. Presently, these traditions face cultural degradation due to the overwhelming influence of modern culture. Consequently, this study is motivated by concern and awareness regarding the existence of the Dayak Wehea people, particularly the erosion of their noble traditions over time. The objective is to explore and document the traditional values of Dayak Wehea customs, specifically focusing on the human concept embedded within the three rituals: birth, marriage, and death. This exploration of anthropological values is guided by Ernst Cassirer's philosophical framework. Additionally, the research aims to provide readers with an understanding of the anthropological significance of these rituals. The methodology employed is qualitative, involving a literature review and data analysis. To ensure authenticity, interviews were conducted with key informants, notably traditional leaders who possess firsthand knowledge and continue to practice these customs. The findings reveal the Dayak Wehea's concept of humanity as symbolic beings, beings of noble dignity, relational beings, pilgrims of hope, and religious beings.

Tubuh dan Politik: Perspektif Feminis Iris Marion Young
This article explores the thoughts of one of contemporary feminist political figures, Iris Marion Young of the body, as well analyzing the dynamics of power, inequality, and experiences of social, cultural, and political alienation. Young states that the body transcends its physicality, it emerges as a locus of politics. Power, he says, operates on the body through social norms, cultural expectations, and policies, shaping the way individuals understand and experience their bodies. These norms, depicted as sources of inequality in bodily experience, contribute to the establishment of socio-political hierarchies in society. Understanding the potential and capacity of the body has a significant political influence in determining the existence of women within the framework of society. This paper aims to describe and analyze Young's concept of feminist politics and highlight its political implications regarding the role of women in society. This research begins with the assumption that, through self-transcendence and understanding the body's capacity to resist immanence, women can assert their existence in society. Rooted in the belief that, as political subjects, all humans are inherently equal, Young challenges traditional paradigms of social and political roles, offering a radical perspective on the body and the self-empowering capacity to live with others. To achieve this goal, the author uses a literature review methodology, emphasizing elements of philosophical research methods such as hermeneutics, description, inductive and deductive analysis, as well as analysis of the coherence of Young's ideas. This article contributes to the ongoing discourse on feminist philosophy, offering a comprehensive exploration of Young's influential thinking on the political dimensions of the body and its implications for women's roles in society.

Konsep Manusia Menurut Dayak Wehea Kalimantan Timur Dalam Terang Filsafat Martin Buber
The focus of this research is to explore the concept of man according to Dayak Wehea in the light of Martin Buber's philosophy. Thus, the data mining and research site are centered on the Wehea Dayak Tribe. This research departs from the author's awareness of the noble cultural values ​​contained in customs, which in the course of time began to be eroded by the currents of time. In the midst of this modern era, the values ​​of local wisdom are starting to be neglected and many local people do not understand the values ​​and meaning behind these customs and culture. Departing from this phenomenon, this research attempts to explore and document local wisdom values ​​specifically regarding the concept of humans as relational creatures as promoted by Martin Buber. The methodology used in this research is a qualitative method through literature study by processing existing data. Apart from that, to ensure the authenticity of the writing regarding the customs of the Wehea Dayak Tribe, interviews were also conducted with resource persons who are traditional leaders who understand and still implement these customs. From the research results, it was found that the concept of humans as relational creatures as promoted by Martin Buber is actually pervasive and manifested in the life and culture of the Wehea Dayak Tribe, specifically this conception is manifested in traditional birth, marriage and death ceremonies.

Strategi Mahasiswa Unpar Dalam Bermedia Sosial sebagai Bagian dari Digital Citizenship yang Kritis
Media literacy in modern times has become a fundamental need required to be owned by the community, especially students. Through the application of good and wise media literacy, readers can avoid bad influences due to inaccurate information. In its application, media literacy has a lot of contact with social media (a digital platform that is often used for social interaction as well as a reference for exchanging information). Many cases and violations have occurred as a result of misuse of information and the spread of fake news in the digital world, for this reason, high awareness is needed for social media users to apply ethics and morals as formed in the concept of Digital Citizenship. Through globalization theory which can provide direction regarding the relationship of the three important points (media literacy, social media and digital citizenship), it is hoped that this research report can add new insights and points of view for readers. In an effort to get mature conclusions, accurate data is needed, where in this research report the related group has approached students majoring in International Relations at Parahyangan University as the target respondents to fill in the questions given through a questionnaire form. Furthermore, the analysis is created in accordance with existing data and is not contrived
The Ethics of Transhumanism from the Perspective of Gilbert Ryle Monist Ethics: Ambiguities and Prospects
Transhumanism attempts to overcome human limitations through the use of technology, such as nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and genetic modifications. In the monist ethical perspective, humans are considered complex material entities, and consciousness is understood as a product of the physical and chemical interactions in the brain with various other parts of the body. The problem is that with such artificial revolutions, ethical foundations based on corporeal limitations become irrelevant. Gilbert Ryle questions Platonistic dispositions that overly rely on reduction with the consequence of extractive knowledge rather than abstract knowledge. Plato's line of thought is then strengthened by Cartesian dualism, which, when applied in a monist perspective, can be reduced to an extraction of brain performance. Ryle proposes an abstraction that allows for the interaction between elements to form a unified understanding of the complex. Based on Ryle's thinking, a study of monist ethics can offer a thoughtful approach to constructing an ethical framework that aligns with the transhumanist era's revolution.
Konsep “Huma Betang” Sebagai Model Penghayatan Iman Dialogal Dalam Pandangan Aloysius Pieris
This article delves into the philosophical-theological significance of Huma Betang, the traditional house of the Dayak people in Central Kalimantan, within the context of the Church's faith dialogue. Huma Betang, serving as a cultural representation, articulates values of humanity, familial bonds, communal living, and equality. The research aims to delineate the theological values manifested in the daily dynamics of Huma Betang, concentrating on the faith dialogue within the Church's responsibilities, including diakonia, kerygma, martyria, the celebration of faith/liturgy, and koinonia. The research methodology employs a literature review approach, drawing from previous writings, the perspectives of Aloysius Pieris, and documents from the Catholic Church. The study's findings reveal that the Theology of Huma Betang mirrors the religiosity of Asia, illustrating communal living where the community gathers to listen to the word of God. Values of familial bonds, communal living, and equality serve as the foundation for the everyday dynamics of Huma Betang, illustrating the principle of collective living in harmony with others.

Epicurus and the Philosophy of Death: Removing Fear and Achieving Happiness
Epicurus had four remedies called tetrapharmakos, which were as follows: 'Don't fear God, don't worry about death: what is good is easy to get, and what is terrible is easy to endure.' Death should not be feared because when it arrives, we are no longer capable of experiencing it. In reality, why do humans fear death? This issue has been examined using the research method of studying literature, particularly the philosophical thoughts of Epicureans. Many of the implicit fears humans have about death are actually fears of suffering (pain). Those who are excessively afraid of death and plan for it in great detail end up disturbing their inner peace and, as a result, they are not happy. Therefore, Epicureans suggest that we should enjoy the present moment. Death will certainly come, but we can face it with a calm and undisturbed soul (ataraxia), which is the happiness that Epicureans seek to achieve.
Eksistensi Tarian Kuda Lumping pada Masyarakat Sunda Berdasarkan Dimensi Tri Tangtu: Sebuah Kajian Hermeneutik
Kuda Lumping or ébég is a typical Sundanese traditional dance that requires the presence of spontaneity when it is played. In it, the elements of profane from the dance and the elements of sacred from its rituals are combined as a medium for the manifestation of the spiritual to the material. It is said that spiritual power is present in the human world through this spontaneity. This is why trance often occurs in the riders of Kuda Lumping as a medium for the presence of spiritual power. The Sundanese people with the Tri Tangtu philosophy believe that mediation through Kuda Lumping is a way for the community to communicate with Sang Hyang or Batara Tunggal. In this paper, the exploration of cultural hermeneutic studies on the Kuda Lumping dance will be discussed based on the dimensions of Tri Tangtu.

Analisis ChatGPT atas Peran Neuroestetis dalam Teater
Appreciating a work of art, particularly in theater performances, often leaves humans overwhelmed with indescribable emotions. This is due to the role of empathy within human beings that relates to what is seen on stage. In theoretical studies, art can be enjoyed through phenomenological aspects and more empirical approaches. One of them is through the lens of neuroaesthetics. This article employs a qualitative descriptive approach using the ChatGPT AI. The conclusion is that the relationship between aesthetic experiences and brain function ultimately reinforces each other.

Manusia, Kesejahteraan, dan Ekonomi Digital: Analisis Bibliometrik
Everyone wants to live a prosperous life. However, in the pursuit of well-being, wrong decisions are often made due to either psychological or rational reasons. Living in the digital era where everything is easier does not necessarily make this process error-free. The digital economy has been a vital part of the strategy to achieve well-being. Amidst the process, the digital economy finally found its place in the metaverse where people can interact with others in a virtual but seemingly real way.
