JOGO TONGGO AS A CULTURAL POLICY TRANSFORMING RELIGIOUS VALUES AND TRADITIONS INTO A CONTROL SYSTEM
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article aims to explain the effectiveness of the Jogo tonggo program initiated by the Provincial Central
Java Government in controlling the social and economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on the people of Central
Java. This research uses interviews with residents and government officials to get an idea of the effectiveness of
this program. The results of this study found that Jogo tonggo goes from the caring practices carried out by the
Javanese community, which comes from the combination of various religious and cultural values that have been
mixed up over time. It is not a form of (Javanese) cultural glorification that has been practiced for a long time but
instead puts forward the aspect of how the public interest is served. Prioritizing citizen involvement in Jogo Tonggo
makes this movement a form of “third way.” The third way is marked by the increasing role of the community in
influencing various political policies based on the various traditional practices they have. By prioritizing the role
of communities and individuals as agencies, Jogo Tonggo can overcome the far-reaching impact of the Covid-19
pandemic by reinventing and relevating the various traditions of the Javanese people
