Abstract

This paper aims to explain the socio-cultural dynamics of the Acehnese in responding to the Covid-19 pandemic as a disaster that has a global impact. I argue that the general response of the Acehnese community can be seen from the representation of masks, stickers and scatter. The representation of this response to Covid-19 shows that the Acehnese people have lost their vision of a future such as a socio-cultural order in organizing their life cycle. Even if we look at the historically or trajectory starting from the Aceh war with the Netherlands and the Covid 19 pandemic, it shows that the harmonious order between the boundaries of the world and the hereafter has not remained in the cultural memory of society. I use ethnographic methods in the data collection process to see the extent of the relationship between the general public responses to survival against Covid 19. Based on the analysis that the author has conducted on ethnographic data; I conclude that currently the people of Aceh are experiencing confusion as to what choices should be made in the face of conditions that are full of uncertainty due to the Covid 19 pandemic. The confusion is seen from the response to disaster mitigation efforts. in order to maintain people’s lives, namely by means of masks, the phenomenon of stickers and the spread of Slots Game.
