Inclusive Society

This paper focuses on the disability in the context of inclusive democracy that is based on the prophetic values. There are two terms used in this paper. First, inclusive democracy; this term asserts that the people with disability are not the object in a social and political system, conversely, the people with disability are positioned as the subject in citizenship. The people with disability are part of the political system and society and they have the rights to engage and compete in the political practices. Second, “prophetic values” that refers to the elaboration of disability studies and Islamic studies, where the later is related to the earlier. Disability studies with the prophetic social science are prominent as a social transformation in order to get a better humanist and transcendence understanding of disability in the local context of Indonesia. The result of this study shows that the inclusive democracy, in terms of Indonesian local context, is constructed by four prophetic values: humanism, liberation, transcendence and inclusive society.[Tulisan ini akan membahas difabilitas dalam konteks demokrasi inklusif berbasis nilai-nilai profetik. Ada dua term yang digunakan dalam tulisan ini. Pertama, “demokrasi inklusif”; term ini ingin menegaskan bahwa difabel bukan lagi sebagai orang yang hanya dijadikan objek saja, akan tetapi kaum difabel diposisikan sebagai subjek warganegara. Dengan kata lain, kaum difabel merupakan bagian dari entitas sistem politik dan sistem masyarakat, yang memiliki hak untuk ikut serta dalam kompetisi politik praktis. Kedua, “nilai-nilai profetik”; sebagai elaborasi kajian difabilitas dan studi Islam, maka penting melakukan interelasi antara difabilitas dengan nilai-nilai profetik. Kajian disabilitas dengan Ilmu Sosial Profetik (ISP), sebagai upaya melakukan transformasi sosial, agar  didapatkan sebuah pemahaman yang lebih humanis-transenden terhadap kaum difabel dalam konteks ke-Indonesiaan. Adapun hasil dari kajian ini adalah bahwa demokrasi inklusif berbasis paradigma profetik dalam konteks ke-Indonesiaan, dikonstruksi atas empat pilar, yaitu nilai humanisasi, liberasi, transendensi, dan masyarakat inklusif.]
