Abstract

This qualitative exploratory study investigates the socio-historical context which impacts on the emergence of youth violence in an urban area, Jakarta, Indonesia. Research findings reveal how social and historical contexts impact youth’s propensity to conduct in youth violence. These social and historical contexts span from the local to the hybrid context; from the Indonesian traditional practices to the global trends of the youth’ social practices. This study illuminates the understanding that youth violence, particularly occurs in the urban area, is complex in nature and the study of youth violence should be placed in wider context. The result study It is widely known that this due to family-based tradition, that is, if one of the family has ever studied at this school, the other family members will follow studying at the same school as their ancestor did. This indicates that in fact parents and students are aware of what happens within the school including various practices of school culture.
