Abstract

This study aims to elaborate the meaning of the Rukun Kematian as social virtues; identify the process and implications of the institutionalization of Rukun Kematian and their implications for local initiatives in rural development; and to elaborate communicative actions from Rukun Kematian initiators and the institutionalization of Rukun Kematian. This research was conducted in Pajeng Village, Gondang District, Bojonegoro Regency, using a qualitative approach with phenomenological methods. The data collection techniques used in this research are documentation, participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and FGD (Focus Group Discussion). Research conducted in selected villages, namely Pajeng Village, Gondang District, Bojonegoro Regency, shows that: 1) Social virtues are constructed through configuration and interpolation between meanings with personal-transcendental and social-reciprocal dimensions, quality of representation, shared intention (collective intention) to achieve social and economic benefits, and the presence of generative dialogue; 2) The process of institutionalizing the values of social virtue is determined by the type of validity claims discussed in the public sphere. These claims will color the institutional model. The derivation (derivative) of the institutional model will affect various local initiatives and forms of innovation by citizens in contributing to village development; 3) the communicative actions of the initiators of the Rukun Kematian towards residents in building a mutual understanding are not solely based on two-way rationality and communicative competence. This research also produces a “Constructionist-Communicative Analysis Model for Rural Communities” as well as a mathematical formulation to identify a generative self-governance model in rural communities.
