Vol. 7 No. 1 (2026): JENTRE: Journal of Education, Administration, Training and Religion

JENTRE: Journal of Education, Administration, Training and Religion, Volume 7, Number 1, 2026, brings together a collection of profound scholarly insights that integrate the enhancement of public governance, strategic communication, and socio-religious protection to address the complexities of modern dynamics. The common thread of this issue centers on optimizing institutional functions and legal frameworks to foster a more equitable, adaptive, and trustworthy societal order. This is explicitly demonstrated through critical discussions on public administration innovations to mitigate market failures, bureaucratic communication strategies designed to reinforce public trust within the Ministry of Finance, and the reconstruction of Islamic jurisprudence (maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah) to safeguard the rights of women and children in unregistered marriages. This institutional complexity is further enriched by research emphasizing the pivotal role of civil servants as catalysts for religious moderation to sustain social harmony in the contemporary era.

Concurrently, this edition places a significant emphasis on the domestic sphere and formal education reform as foundational pillars for human capital development. This paradigm shift is examined from the micro-level—analyzing the impact of positive parenting on parent-child emotional attachment—to macro-educational dimensions, such as effective classroom management and curriculum development tailored to enhance student motivation in madrasahs. Furthermore, the volume underscores that elevating the quality of education extends beyond conventional professional competence, requiring continuous and comprehensive teacher training. Collectively, the articles presented in this issue offer a rich, multidisciplinary perspective, serving as both theoretical benchmarks and practical solutions that contribute meaningfully to the advancement of education, administration, training, and religious studies in Indonesia.
