Social Movement, Socio-religious, Community, Indonesia's 1998 ReformAbstract
Reform and social movements are inherently interconnected, with reform often linked to newfound freedoms, action, and mass mobilization critical milestones for social movements in Indonesia. This study revisits the role of social movements as they are represented through the socio-religious practices of the An-Nadzir community in the aftermath of Indonesia’s 1998 reform. Data were collected through direct observation and an analysis of relevant literature. A qualitative, descriptive approach employing representation theory was used to analyze the data. The findings suggest that the representation of social movements plays a crucial role in the success of the An-Nadzir community’s religious social activities. Three core concepts Political Opportunity Structure, Mobilizing Structure, and Framing Processes serve as key analytical tools to examine how social movements are reflected in the religious practices of the An-Nadzir community, enabling its survival and growth post-reform. The study shows that social movements are dynamic and adaptable, evolving in response to shifting social, political, economic, cultural, and religious contexts. Therefore, the study highlights the continued relevance of social movement theory, particularly in understanding the contextualization and actualization of social action amid the forces of globalization. Additionally, this research suggests the need for further exploration of social movements in the digital age, particularly through the use of information technology, which was outside the scope of this study.
