From Response to Authorship: A Systematic Review of Authority and Participation in Indonesia's Post-Mining Land Governance

Mohammad Wahyu Diansyah — 2026-10-30

Communities live with the social–ecological consequences of mining. This systematic review examines how Indonesian post-mining scholarship treats the distribution of authority over what those landscapes become. Following ROSES reporting standards, 101 peer-reviewed articles published between 2000 and 2025 were synthesized from Scopus and Dimensions and coded for governance arrangements, planning models, community participation, land-use pathways, and alignment with international best practice in mine closure. The review shows post-mining governance dominated by administrative compliance, addressed in 70 articles against 4 on land transfer and redistribution. Communities are commonly involved in consultation, implementation, and livelihood adaptation, but rarely in defining closure objectives. Only 6 studies integrate planning, authority, tenure, and financing across the closure sequence. This separation between bearing the consequences of closure and shaping its terms is conceptualized here as the response-authorship gap. The same pattern appears across levels of government, where closure authority sits with central and provincial agencies while residual environmental and socioeconomic burdens remain local. The evidence base is also geographically uneven, concentrating on Kalimantan coal and Bangka Belitung tin while providing limited insight into rapidly expanding nickel regions under hilirisasi. These findings point toward closure approvals conditioned on identified end-users, recognized decision rights, secure tenure, and financing that extends to long-term monitoring.

The Transformation of Ibn Khaldun's Asabiyyah in Transnational Solidarity: A Study of Pro-Palestinian Football Supporter Communities

Bahij Hisyam Abiyyu — 2026-10-30

Expressions of pro-Palestinian solidarity among football supporter communities provide a context for examining how group solidarity can extend beyond internal attachments and geographical boundaries. This study aims to analyze contemporary manifestations of solidarity through Ibn Khaldun's concept of ‘asabiyyah, particularly in relation to the transnational orientation of pro-Palestinian football supporter communities. Unlike previous studies that predominantly examine football supporters through the perspectives of supporter identity, social movements, and hooliganism, this research adopts an Islamic social-philosophical perspective by employing ‘asabiyyah as a conceptual framework for understanding social cohesion in contemporary society. Using a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, this study examines three cases the supporter culture surrounding FC St. Pauli, Ultras Ahlawy, and Aremania. Textual and visual documentation is analyzed through hermeneutic interpretation and semiotic analysis to explore the relationships between group identity, collective symbols, and value orientation. The findings identify different foundations of solidarity across the three cases: socio-ideological values within the supporter culture of FC St. Pauli, collective historical memory among Ultras Ahlawy, and local identity accompanied by expressions of humanitarian empathy among Aremania. These patterns suggest that existing forms of group attachment can provide a basis for expressions of solidarity directed toward humanitarian concerns beyond the immediate community. This study contributes to contemporary interpretations of Ibn Khaldun's social thought by demonstrating the analytical relevance of ‘asabiyyah for understanding the broader manifestations and orientations of solidarity in modern football supporter communities, rather than suggesting a transformation of the historical concept itself.
