The recorded figures of human rights violations, including extrajudicial killings, torture, and the dismissal of legal rights for individuals suspected as terrorists, have led to the construction of fear and insecurity among the Indonesian people of the state’s approach to counterterrorism. Employing the concept of ‘Domestic Security Dilemma’ developed by Field in 2016, this article argues that; (1) Detachment 88’s coercive methods in counterterrorism have led to human rights oppression and the construction of fear and insecurity among Indonesian citizens, and (2) the emergence of a ‘Domestic Security Dilemma’ due to the growing discourse of Detachment 88’s dismissal initiated by individuals and Islamic community organization in Indonesia. ## Keywords - Torture - Dismissal - Human rights - Dilemma - Oppression - Security dilemma - Government (linguistics) - Political science - Indonesian government - Indonesian - State (computer science) - International community - Law - Criminology - Sociology - Computer science - Philosophy - Linguistics - China - Politics - Epistemology - Algorithm --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
