Abstract

Deradicalization as an effort to eliminate the ideology of radicalism that has been ingrained in the people of Tamanjeka (Gunung Biru), including the families of suspected terrorists, must be a shared responsibility. Handling radicalization in conflict areas with radical understanding that grows from the roots of conflict is not an easy thing. It requires strategies and cooperation from all elements of society. The aim of this study is to determine the communication strategies and approach used in the deradicalization process in the Gunung Biru community of Poso. This study was done using a qualitative approach and in-depth interviews as data collection tools as well as overall direct observations. The result of this study is that the deradicalization process was done using three different approaches: cultural approach, psychological approach and interpersonal and family approach. While different people used or experienced different approaches and have different results, the ones that successful are not only kept for themselves but also spread what they experienced with others.
