Research Objectives & Core Themes
This study aims to identify the role of trust within the framework of conflict transformation and to explore how specific trust-building approaches can be integrated into peace interventions to enhance their effectiveness. By analyzing the Baku Bae Peace Movement in Indonesia as a case study, the research investigates the dynamics of trust restoration and the importance of involving multiple stakeholders—from grassroots levels to elite leaders—to foster sustainable peace and reconciliation in post-conflict societies.
- The role of trust in short-term conflict de-escalation and long-term transformation.
- The application of Lederach’s Pyramid Model in peacebuilding initiatives.
- The integration of Allport’s Contact Hypothesis in fostering intergroup trust.
- The significance of bottom-up, grassroots movements in achieving local mandates for peace.
Excerpt from the Book
1.2.1. The nature of the Baku Bae Peace Movement
The Baku Bae Movement, named after the local children’s game, began its work in the Maluku Island following the eruption of the first conflict in early 2000 (Muluk & Malik, 2009). The term peace was avoided because at that time it meant surrender for both sides. The term Baku Bae was introduced instead because it was a “psychologically common language,” which also suggests a spirit of peace (Muluk & Malik, 2009, p. 94).
Grammatically, Baku means “each other” or “reciprocally” and Bae means “to be kind to others,” “making peace,” or “making friendships” (Muluk & Malik, 2009, p. 94). Quarreling children who want to resume their friendships again would say, “Let’s us be kind to each other” or “Let us Baku Bae.” The name of the movement, therefore, provided both sides with a common peace discourse which encouraged and enabled them to move on with the peace movement.
The Baku Bae Peace Movement was primarily based on the idea that the conflict could only be resolved by the conflicting parties themselves; that is, the people in Maluku (both Muslims and Christians). It was a bottom-up, grassroots movement mandated by the local people who were victimized by the conflict, who did not really understand the causes of the conflict, and who were eager to see the conflict end and live in peace and harmony again. Although it was initiated by the NGO activists, academicians and professionals, such as prominent NGO activists Ichsan Malik and Eliakim Sitorus, the success of the movement in de-escalating the violence and bringing about reconciliation process between the two contending communities was basically because of the nature of the movement itself. It was a movement with the involvement of all stakeholders at all levels and in all spheres, including the local people who were the victims of the conflict, youth, local and community leaders, religious leaders, lawyers, journalists, intellectuals, teachers, military and police personnel, NGOs, and businesspeople.
