TRANSFORMATION OF CHARACTER-BUILDING LOCAL
CULTURE
Introduction
It is true that culture is a reflection of a nation, culture is no stranger to human life.
Basically, culture is born by humans themselves, which develops and is passed down
between generations both between individuals and groups. In the Big United States
Dictionary, it explains that culture (Cultural) is defined as a mind, customs, something that
has developed, and has become a habit that is difficult to change. It can be understood that
the developing culture is influenced by individuals who have the desire to experience
changes from ordinary to extraordinary. Cultural development can be seen from various
aspects of cultural values, such as divine, humanitarian, life, spiritual, moral, social, and
intellectual values. Changes in culture are not necessarily all changes that come from
outside, accepted without being filtered first. Today, there are many individuals who quickly
accept and recognize changes in culture, but also clearly forget the culture that has become
their identity from the beginning.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 70) explains that transformation is a transfer or shift from old to
new without changing the structure in it, even though in its new form it has undergone
changes. Transformation is certainly related to culture, because every development of the
times makes cultural transformation either consciously or otherwise. The framework in
cultural transformation is structure and culture. According to Capra (Rasid Yunus, 2013:
70), transformation involves changes in the network of social and ecological relationships. If
there is a change in the structure, there will be a transformation of social institutions, values,
and thoughts. Cultural transformation is related to the evolution of human culture. On the
other hand, Jujun S Suriasumantri in Esti Ismawati (2012: 100) explains that transformation
is needed in order to follow the modernization period, which is a series of basic values
including theoretical values, social values, economic values, political values (power),
aesthetic values, and religious values. The existence of cultural transformation, causing
changes in one particular object, these changes occur in individuals who can transform
cultural values in general, especially local culture.
Cultural transformation certainly affects local culture, which is the authenticity of a
region's identity. Local culture makes individuals and even groups have a sense of love for
the homeland. National identity is born because of the strength of its people who maintain
their own local culture, so that it becomes the distinctiveness of a nation. In a sense,
recognizing from a small scope in order to strengthen the large scope. Local culture that
lives in the midst of individuals, born from a spiritual impulse that is spiritually and
materially very important for the social life of an environment. It has a close relationship
with individuals in the environment with all the conditions in the region.
Cultural changes, as the author has explained earlier, greatly affect various aspects of
values. Especially in the current era, there are many changes, which if not filtered, will make
a person forget their own identity. It is clear from the attitude of individuals in the current
era, less aware of their own local culture, tend to know and explore foreign cultures that are
not really their identity. Indeed, there is nothing wrong with recognizing cultural changes,
especially those from outside, as a broad knowledge enhancer. However, it would be wise
not to forget the local culture of their homeland.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.

enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of

Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).

local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.

socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.

Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.

It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through

introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for

but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity

both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.

the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.

their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.

the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.

The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.

community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the

character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly

system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between

the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.

that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.

understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to

preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural

enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude

that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
(Setyaningrum, 2018: 109).
Conclusion
Building the character of a nation is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand,
especially when it is not only one or two people who are seen the development of their
character but all citizens of the community. The changing times can be studied and explored,
but it should not be allowed to forget the local culture that is our identity. Creating humans
through It is not easy and it takes a long time for cultural transformation.
Cultural Transformation
Every individual, group of people, and country has its own culture and customs that
are different from each other. The culture is born from their own, which is experienced for
generations, either consciously or unconsciously. From culture, humans learn not to judge
that their own culture is more valuable than others, because each culture has its own
differences in character and habits. Culture is not only in the form of fine art or applied art,
but in the form of an idea that comes from the work of humans themselves who are
continuously studied and explored. It is understood that all the results of human creativity
are declared as culture. As good as humans are, in order to accept the process of cultural
transformation by not forgetting the culture that has first become their identity.
Transformation leads to a change in form without removing the old elements. So that
the old elements can continue to be passed down to various times, but with minor changes to
the culture. Transformation must be carried out with full confidence that the results can have
a good impact on all aspects. The transformation process must be consistently adaptive and
dynamic, so that it is in line with the evolving times. The occurrence of cultural
transformation begins with an element of openness, either by force or because of the
character of a culture that easily accepts the presence of foreign cultures. However, the
existence of cultural transformation does not necessarily mean that all aspects can quickly
balance these changes with their original culture. Some can quickly accept, some are the
opposite.
On the one hand, culture is carried out consciously or not from a learning process
that makes a habit. With the learning process, it can make it easier to pass on the values
contained in culture to between generations. The inheritance is known as the process of
socialization or enculturation (acculturation process) (Aloliweri, 2011: 215). The
enculturation process is related to the learning process. By adjusting the mind and attitude
towards customs, norm systems, and all the rules contained in one's culture. The process of
enculturation starts from the beginning of life which is getting more and more complex,
taking place dynamically. The process of cultural transformation will quickly develop in an
educational environment. Because in the educational environment, especially schools,
students easily socialize and meet with many kinds of individuals with different
backgrounds. It is easy for students to absorb and know the socio-cultural differences
between their peers. It can be understood that education is one of the major influences on the
socio-cultural system in the order of life. Therefore, education must understand that the
school environment is the place where culture comes in and out.
The process of cultural transformation can be done by introducing culture,
incorporating cultural elements in the learning process in society and even the educational
environment. Culture is the basis of educational practice, so not only does the entire
educational process have the soul of national culture, but all elements of culture must be
introduced in the educational process. Creating humans through culture must be conscious
that cultural values become one with themselves, it is not easy and a long time is needed for
cultural transformation.
Character-Building Local Culture
United States is one of the countries that is blessed with a lot of diversity, especially
the various cultures that become the learning process of its population. All cultures have
their own characteristics, influenced by where they come from. This makes United States
very beautiful and has an attraction to be explored together. However, the other side of
United States beauty can quickly disappear if it is not preserved by all elements of its
population. It is not only one or two people who have the obligation to preserve, but all
residents so as not to drown in this ever-evolving era. Local culture that grows in the
community spiritually and materially is very important for the life of a local community
environment.
Karmadi (2007: 3) explains that various forms of local cultural heritage provide an
opportunity for all elements of society, to learn about local culture, to overcome problems in
the past. The problems faced from the past until now, local culture is often ignored,
considering that it has no connection with the modern era. This has resulted in many local
cultures being neglected, abandoned, and abused. Preserving does not mean making
something durable and not extinct, but maintaining it for a very long time. So, local cultural
preservation efforts are efforts to maintain local cultural heritage for a very long time. So it
needs to be developed as a sustainable effort. Preservation cannot last long if it is not
supported by the whole community and does not become a real part of life. It is understood
that preservation will be sustainable if it is based on inner strength, local strength, and self-
help strength. It is necessary to foster strong motivation to participate in preserving local
culture.
Rasid Yunus (2013: 66) states that the development of national character through
local culture is needed. The development of national character can be achieved by
transforming local cultural values as one of the means to build national character. The
importance of the transformation of local cultural values as a means to build the nation's
character is described by the Master Design for National Character Development in Rasid
Yunus (2013: 66) as follows:
Philosophical
It is a basic need in the process of nation building, because only a nation that has a strong
identity character will exist.
Ideological
Efforts to realize the ideology of Pancasila in the life of the nation and state. Normatively,
the development of national character is a concrete manifestation of achieving the State's
goals.
Historical
It is a core dynamic of the national process that has occurred endlessly throughout history,
both during the colonial era and the era of independence.
Sociocultural
A necessity of a multicultural nation National character development involves various
parties without exception. Development will not be successful as long as related parties do
not work together. Therefore, national character development needs to be carried out outside
of school or in the community in general in accordance with the local cultural wisdom of
each individual.
The era that continues to develop from a time that was far from advanced, to the
present can be said to be very advanced. Globalization unwittingly brings many changes in
values in society, especially local areas. It can be seen from the shifting cultural value
system as well as changing attitudes and views towards cultural values. The influence of
globalization has unwittingly led to social mobility followed by shifting cultural value
system relationships in people's lives. The impact of globalization and advances in
communication technology unwittingly have an impact on the intensity of culture between
tribes and in outside areas (Setyaningrum, 2018: 104). Facing globalization, it is required to
be able to develop and utilize the cultural wealth that is owned. Therefore, it is important to
understand the local culture owned by this country, also developing works of art through
various approaches, Mistika Philosophy in Setyaningrum (2018: 104). Cultural development
that is continuously carried out can support the sustainability of cultural life, which is
influential and has the character, identity, and integrity of the United States nation
