Abstract

The article aims to describe view or representation of mental attitude of Santri in Rural Java about phenomenon of radicalism. Radicalism in social context is still a debate, including among Santri and other religious communities. It is very interesting to study because this actual study attempts to map out the views that exist in the concept of human development. The research method used is qualitative with phenomenology design, data source for this research is Santri and social-religious activities where they live every day. The results of this study are (i) radicalism is understood as deviant behavior in the context of nationalism (ii) most Santri reject the radicalism stereotype of Islam, (iii) there are those who understand that radicalism in Indonesia is Western engineering, and (iv) others think that the root of radicalism comes from the wrong religious learning process. The theoretical implication of this research is that the Santri agree that radicalism must be opposed in the context of nationalism, but the knowledge of radicalism must be presented objectively to remove the negative stigma directed to Islam because Islam is a religion that gives peace to the universe.
