Abstract

Salah satu permasalahan utama dalam bidang ekonomi di negeri ini adalah bagaimana menafsirkan dan menjabarkan Pasal 33 UUD 1945. Namun kalau kita melihat kembali perkembangan terkini pemikiran ekonomi, ada setidaknya 3 arus besar pemikiran: mereka yang percaya sepenuhnya akan kedigdayaanekonomi pasar dan maksimalisasi profit (dipertajam oleh Milton Friedman, 1970); mereka yang percaya bahwa ekonomi yang bernuansa sosialis yang akan memberikan keadilan, dengan perkembangan terkini misalnya sistem komunitarianisme dll; dan yang terakhir adalahupaya mencari jalan tengah di antara kedua kubu tersebut, misalnya yang disebut: state capitalism, atau common prosperity (diperkenalkan oleh Presiden RRC, Xi Jinping baru-baru ini). Meski artikel ini tidak bermaksud membahas secara menyeluruh masing-masing pendekatan, namun kami berusaha melihat kembali seperti apakah corak ekonomi KerajaanAllah yang dirancang Tuhan bagi umat-Nya. Artikel ini juga merupakan salah satu upaya untuk merefleksikan Pasal 33 tersebut dalam perspektif altruisme dalam Etika Kristen, khususnya yang berhubungan dengan konsep keramahan (hospitalitas).Dalam makalah ini, kami mengajukan suatu interpretasi ulang atas ayat tersebut berdasarkan konsep yang kami usulkan untuk disebut sebagai ekonomi kesetiakawanan atau"ekonomi hospitalitas." (dalam artikel terdahulu di jurnal NPTRS, kami mengajukan terma “koinomics.” - apakah ekonomi hospitalitas dan koinomics memang sama persis, tentu perludiskusi tersendiri.) Beberapa hal yang kami pertimbangkan dalam usulan ini antara lainadalah (1) manfaat neurosains dari memberi dan bekerjasama (cooperation), (2) tradisi lokal yang memberikan nilai tinggi terhadap persahabatan, (3) budaya keramahan, (4) pendekatananti-utilitarianisme, (5) konsep identitas relasional.

Abstract

One of the main problems in the economic field in this

country is how to interpret and explain Article 33 of the 1945

Constitution. There have been many attempts to conduct a

judicial review of various laws related to Article 33. At the

latest developments in economic thought, there are at least

three major currents of thought: those who fully believe in

the supremacy of the market economy and profit

maximization, as sharpened by Friedman (1970); those who

believe that a socialist economy will provide justice, with

recent developments such as communitarianism, etc.; and

those believing in a middle ground between the two camps,

as commonly called the state of capitalism or prosperity. The

President of the PRC, Xi Jinping, recently introduced the

latter. Without discussing each approach thoroughly, we

look at the types of the economy the Kingdom of God has

designed for His people. This article also aims to reflect on

Article 33 from the perspective of altruism in Christian

ethics, especially those related to the concept of hospitality

(hospitality). Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution says: "The

economy is structured as a joint effort based on the principle

of the family cooperative." (Note: this is a non-official

translation.) Some economists interpret this family principle

as "mechanical solidarity," which is considered outdated. We

propose a reinterpretation of this verse based on a concept

called the solidarity economy, or the "hospitality economy."

(In the previous article in the journal NPTRS, we put forward

the term "koinomics"—both the economics of hospitality

and koinomics are the same, of course, and need a separate

discussion.) Some other issues we consider in this paper

include (1) the neuroscientific benefits of giving and

cooperation, (2) local traditions that place a high value on

friendship, (3) a culture of friendliness, (4) an anti-utilitarian

approach, (5) the concept of relational identity.
