Kasus dugaan penistaan agama oleh Ahok memunculkan reaksi umat Islam dari berbagai kalangan. Respons paling intens disinyalir berasal dari kelompok Front Pembela Islam (FPI). Hal tersebut ditandai dengan intensitasnya mengawal perkembangan kasus dugaan penistaan agama oleh Ahok, menginisiasi lahirnya Gerakan Nasional Pengawal Fatwa MUI (GNPF-MUI), aktif terlibat dalam aksi lapangan, bahkan menjadi komando lahirnya Aksi Bela al-Qur'an yang berjilid-jilid. Selain banyak terlibat dalam aksi lapangan, FPI juga banyak memperlihatkan responnya melaui pemberitaan kasus Ahok di websitenya. Penelitian ini berupaya menjawab pertanyaan berikut; bagaimana website FPI membingkai kasus dugaan penistaan agama oleh Ahok dalam pemberitaannya?, dan wacana apa yang hendak dibangun dalam bingkai berita kasus dugaan penistaan agama oleh Ahok di website FPI?. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif interpretatif pada level teks media dengan pendekatan konstruksionis. Data penelitian dianalisis dengan merujuk pada teori framing media model Robert N. Entman yang menekankan pada dua dimensi besar: seleksi isu dan penonjolan aspek tertentu dari realitas. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa website FPI menggunakan perspektif hukum sebagai bingkai yang utama dalam memberitakan kasus dugaan penistaan agama oleh Ahok (define problem), namun berita sengaja dipilah-pilah untuk menciptakan efek tertentu; merugikan pihak Ahok dan pemerintah, sebaliknya menguntungkan pihak kelompok FPI. Pada titik ini website FPI tampak melakukan politik kepentingan dengan selubung hukum. Artinya, perspektif hukum yang digunakan sebagai bingkai utama dalam pemberitaan kasus dugaan penistaan agama oleh Ahok di website FPI, hanya dimanfaatkan untuk kepentingan kelompok.

After the reformation, the strengthening of local identity has sprung up in several regions in Indonesia. The movement produced the revitalization of adat. These movements underlining the effort from communities which affiliated with a particular ethnic identity to gain claims of management of the natural and political-economic resources in their region. Contestation between the indigenous Dayak community and 'Front Pembela Islam" (FPI) that occurred in Palangkaraya was a phenomenon that shows how indigenous people were able to assert its right to manage security and morality in their own society. The discourse of FPI's establishment which often associated with vigilantism brought resistance and the refusal from Dayak community in Central Kalimantan. Through demonstrations, DAD and the indigenous Dayak community was able to exclude FPI from Palangkaraya. Thus, this research aims to analyze (1) the history of ethnic and religious identity movements in Indonesia after the reformation and (2) how the contestation between indigenous Dayak community and FPI occurred in the local context according to identity recognition and legitimation. This research used qualitative approach; data gathered through field observation and unstrucutred interviews. The research concludes that there is an awareness in the community to negotiate their position as an opposition to the occurence of a group with particular ideology, which has become the research highlight. This was proven by the case in Palangkaraya that vigilantism on the name of religion is not supposed to be maintain because it violates the right of other group.

Die gegenwärtige Debatte zur Frage der Integration von Muslimen in Europa spaltet die Gesellschaft. Sehen seine Kritiker den Islam als Bedrohung des Abendlandes an, heißen ihn Multikulti-Verfechter bedenkenlos willkommen. Klemens Ludwig sucht einen Platz zwischen den Fronten und nach praktikablen Lösungen für ein friedliches Miteinander. Dazu fordert er vom christlichen Abendland eine aufgeklärte und selbstbewusste Leitkultur als Integrationsbasis und von führenden Vertretern des Islam, sich nicht länger als Opfer abendländischer Arroganz darzustellen - ein Verhalten, dem die hierzulanden gerne gepflegte Büßerhemdmentalität leichtfertig Vorschub leistet.
