Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper aims to find out how the government's efforts are in dealing with the dangers of radicalism and terrorism in Indonesia. Terrorism is an extraordinary crime that can endanger the security and safety of the people in Indonesia. This research uses a descriptive-analytical method. This method is used to describe the findings of the problems studied and then analyzed. The conclusion of this study is that the government has formed an institution called the National Counterterrorism Agency (BNPT) whose job is to prevent, deter and at the same time take action against acts of terrorism to maintain national security. Then the government pushed for soft power efforts by means of deradicalization. This approach is expected to be able to change the mindset of terrorist convicts who were initially against the state to become pro-state based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. Keywords: Deradicalization, Radicalism, Terrorism, National Security
