Analysis of the Role of Government and Society in Addressing Religious Conflicts in Siompin Village, Suro Subdistrict - Aceh Singkil Regency
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the role of the government and society in addressing religious conflicts in Siompin Village, Suro Subdistrict, Aceh Singkil Regency, particularly those involving disputes over the construction of houses of worship in 2015, concerning the existence and legality of non-Muslim worship buildings. The research employs a case study method, with data collected through interviews and document analysis. The findings indicate that the government’s role—through regulatory enforcement and mediation—has not been fully effective in conflict resolution. Meanwhile, the community, including religious and local leaders, plays a crucial role in maintaining harmony and promoting reconciliation. The analysis shows that conflict mitigation efforts can be categorized into two main strategies. The first is a short-term approach, involving rapid responses to conflict escalation and mediation facilitated by the government and community leaders. The second is a long-term strategy, focusing on developing interfaith dialogue, strengthening understanding of regulations, and encouraging active community participation in decision-making on religious issues. The study concludes that strong collaboration between the government, religious leaders, and the community is essential to establish an effective conflict management framework. The government needs to be more proactive in enforcing regulations fairly and providing dialogue forums, while the community must continue to uphold tolerance and participate in preventive efforts. Strengthening policies that promote community participation is also necessary to build trust, prevent potential future conflicts, and preserve social harmony in Siompin Village.
