Implementation of Pancasila Values ​​in Student Life in the Era of Globalization

Abstract

Pancasila is the foundation of the state and the ideology of the Indonesian nation, serving as a guideline for national and state life. The values ​​contained within Pancasila reflect the identity of the Indonesian nation and serve as the source of all legal sources in state administration. Amidst the increasingly rapid flow of globalization and the development of information technology, students face complex challenges in upholding national values. With its diversity of ethnicities, religions, races, and cultures, Indonesia requires a unifying principle. Most importantly, Pancasila is not merely a historical document or a state symbol, but is the spirit of the Indonesian nation. Students, as the younger generation and agents of change, have a strategic role in implementing Pancasila values ​​in their daily lives. However, the influence of foreign cultures, individualism, and pragmatism often displace the values ​​of mutual cooperation, solidarity, and nationalism. Therefore, strengthening the understanding and practice of Pancasila values ​​contextually is necessary to maintain their relevance to the dynamics of the times.This article aims to analyze the implementation of Pancasila values ​​in the lives of students in the era of globalization and identify the role of higher education institutions in strengthening Pancasila education. The methods used are literature studies and normative approaches by reviewing scientific literature and relevant laws and regulations.
