Abstract

Pancasila has become the country's ideology for Indonesia for more than seven decades. However, efforts to foster the state ideology remain challenging especially since the country's citizens are now faced with several consequences of the so-called the disruptive era. This paper discusses the challenges and the strategy of cultivating the state ideology at Indonesian universities. The Indonesian universitiesare selected as a unit of analysis because they become one of “the breeding centers” of alternative ideologies against Pancasila. This paper offers two approaches as a strategy to fosterthe state ideology at Indonesian universities: institutional and cultural approaches. While the institutional approach refers to the use of institutional resources to foster the state ideology, the cultural approach utilizes cultural resources to back up the effort. This paper argues that the simultaneous application of both approaches is an affective strategy for fostering the state ideology at the higher education institutions.
