Abstract

Violence in education is an issue that attracts the attention of many parties. Schools that are supposed to be places to grow and protect children from violence have become unsafe places. The phenomenon of school violence is increasingly rife today. One type of violence that is rarely noticed and receives little attention from schools is symbolic violence. Symbolic violence is difficult to recognize because it operates under the perpetrator's unconsciousness, contains no resistance, and there is no element of destruction. This study aims to identify and analyze symbolic violence displayed in textbooks of Pancasila and Civic Education subjects in the era of Kurikulum Merdeka at the level of Junior High School. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with content analysis and semiotics methods. Content analysis, in this case, is in the form of words, images, ideas, themes, or some message communicated. Semiotic methods are carried out to analyze signs in the form of sentences, images, or illustrations. Data collection is carried out through reading, examining the contents of books, and recording with in-depth analysis of the content of symbolic violence contained in student textbooks. In general, the stages in this study are (1) data collection; (2) record keeping; (3) reduction; (4) to determine the conclusion; and (5) narrative or description of research results. The results of this study revealed that there were as many as 12 visuals of symbolic violence, both in the form of text and images in the pdf textbook Pancasila and Civic Education for grade VII-IX students of the Kurikulum Merdeka. Symbolic violence has an impact on children and society, where if this form of symbolic violence is ignored then this violence will become the seed for the emergence of physical violence and other destructive violence that is real.
