PEMIKIRAN ABDURRAHMAN WAHID TENTANG PRINSIP PENDIDIKAN ISLAM MULTIKULTURAL BERWAWASAN KEINDONESIAAN
Abstract
Gus Dur argued that cultural diversity which has positive connotations can be realized by several aspects, one of them is education. As a figure that was usually called as the Father of Pluralism and Multiculturalism, he explained that education should be varied and based on its culture. The variety in education does not mean deviating the education goal, but it is an attempt to achieve the goal of education in varied ways. The paradigm of multicultural education includes subjects which discuss about injustice, poverty, oppression and backwardness of minority groups in the field of social, culture, Economisc, education, etc. This paradigm will encourage the growth of studies on "ethnic studies" to find its place in the educational curriculum from the elementary level up to university level. Further it also includes a notion of consideration of education policies and strategies in a multicultural society.
