Abstract


This study is motivated by the development of the millennial generation, which tends to be weak in the adversity quotient. Conditions where the younger generation is very vulnerable and quickly gives up because they do not have the resilience to the conditions or problems they face. The problem studied is to provide an understanding of the concept of the adversity quotient, the spirit of the Puputan War as a model for strengthening the adversity quotient, and its implementation. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach to the literature review model, which examines various sources from books, articles, and also websites that discuss research problems. The study found that the millennial generation has a low adversity quotient attitude. The younger generation is now accustomed to instant culture due to technological developments. This impacts their vulnerability when they find problems, and they tend to take adverse actions such as suicide, plagiarism, theft, and other harmful things. However, this condition can be prevented by giving examples of the spirit of bellows war that was carried out by the Balinese people in fighting the invaders with all their limitations, and they were still able to fight to the last drop of their blood. The values of the Puputan war character that can be taken as adversity quotient reinforcement include unyielding spirit, hard work, willingness to sacrifice, nationalism and love of the motherland, loyalty, and religious values. These values can be used as a character education model taught in schools through history lessons to strengthen the adversity quotient, which is currently decreasing among millennials. Its implementation can be carried out in the Project to Strengthen the Pancasila Student Profile, a mandatory sub-material in the independent curriculum being implemented at this time.

Keywords: Puputan War, Adversity Quotient, Character, Young Generation, Globalization.

 

Kajian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh perkembangan generasi milenial yang cenderung lemah dalam adversity quotient. Kondisi dimana generasi muda sangat rentan dan mudah menyerah karena tidak memiliki ketahanan terhadap kondisi atau masalah yang dihadapi. Masalah yang dikaji adalah memberikan pemahaman konsep adversity quotient, semangat perang Puputan sebagai model penguatan adversity quotient, dan implementasinya. Metode yang dipakai dalam kajian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif model literature review yang mengkaji berbagai sumber dari buku, artikel, dan juga situs website yang membahas tentang masalah penelitian. Hasil kajian menemukan bahwa generasi milenial saat ini memiliki sikap adversity quotient yang rendah. Hal ini disebabkan karena generasi muda sekarang dibiasakan oleh budaya instant karena perkembangan teknologi. Hal ini berdampak pada rentannya mereka ketika menemukan masalah, ada kecendrungan mengambil tindakan yang negatif seperti bunuh diri, plagiarisme, pencurian, dan hal negatif lainnya. Namun kondisi itu bisa cegah dengan memberikan contoh-contoh semangat Perang Puputan yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat Bali dalam melawan penjajah dengan segala keterbatasannya masih bisa berjuang sampai titik darah penghabisan. Nilai-nilai karakter Perang Puputan yang bisa diambil sebagai penguat adversity quotient antara lain semangat pantang menyerah, kerja keras, rela berkorban, nasionalisme dan cinta tanah air, loyalitas, dan nilai religius. Nilai-nilai yang terkandung itu bisa dijadikan model pendidikan karakter yang bisa diajarkan disekolah melalui pembelajaran sejarah, sehingga bisa memperkuat Cambria yang saat ini semakin berkurang dikalangan generasi milenial. Implementasinya bisa dilakukan pada kegiatan Projek Penguatan Profil Pelajar Pancasila yang menjadi submateri wajib dalam kurikulum merdeka yang sedang diterapkan saat ini.

Kata Kunci:  Perang Puputan, Adversity Quotient, Karakter, Generasi Muda, Globalisasi.
