Pendidikan Multikultural dalam Tradisi Pesantren di Yogyakarta
Abstract: This study discusses
the concept of multiculturalism according to the santris and its relation to
their religiosity. Santris are those who study at the pesantren, the indigenous
form of education in Indonesia. The paper offers a descriptive elaboration of
what these santris think of multiculturalism and how they relate it to their
belief and religious tradition. It argues that multiculturalism has been the very
character of the pesantren in which santris of various cultural background stay
to study. How thismulticulturalism works and how it influences the santris in
the way they look at the idea of nation-hood is the question that needs to be
explored. And this paper aims at doing just that. Nation-hood is just another
form of multiculturalism. While the santris are used to a life of a
multicultural nature, the question of how they adapt to the national culture on
the one hand, and how religion shapes the way they behave on the other becomes
of particular interest. This paper will show that religion and nationalism are
two sides of the same coin—as it were—in the life of the santris.
