The analysis focuses on five key components: human facts, collective subjects, worldviews, narrative structures, and the dialectic of understanding and explanation. The findings indicate that individual human emotions–anger, remorse, sorrow, and joy—reflect the power relations between Regina and Tomi, as well as the moral transformation experienced by both characters. Social facts emerge through depictions of communal cooperation, Wondama cultural practices, and mystical elements that represent the local belief systems. The collective subject illustrates the tension between Western and Eastern value systems, which is ultimately reconciled through friendship. Kijne’s worldview is expressed through messages emphasizing equality, compassion, and human solidarity. Furthermore, the narrative’s structural opposition between imagination and reality reinforces Kijne’s vision of Papua as a harmonious and dignified “golden city”. ## Keywords - Ideology - Dialectic - Sociology - Epistemology - Opposition (politics) - Narrative - Power (physics) - Subject (documents) - Argumentation theory - Aesthetics - Value (mathematics) - Structuralism (philosophy of science) - Mysticism - Binary opposition - Moral standards - Social practice - Social psychology --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
