PENDIDIKAN ANTI-KORUPSI BERBASIS BUDAYA LOKAL DALAM MEMBENTUK KARAKTER MAHASISWA INTEGRATIF (STUDI LITERATUR PADA NILAI-NILAI BUDAYA MINANGKABAU)

Abstract

Corruption in higher education presents a serious challenge in shaping a young generation with strong integrity. Anti-corruption education that is not aligned with local cultural values often fails to effectively reach students’ moral awareness. This study aims to examine the role of Minangkabau local culture in supporting anti-corruption education to build integrative student character. Employing a library research method, this study analyzes a range of scholarly journals, official reports, academic books, and traditional Minangkabau documents. The findings reveal that Minangkabau cultural values such as shame (malu), trustworthiness (amanah), honesty (jujur), and deliberation (musyawarah/sakato) have great potential to be integrated into anti-corruption character education. These values function not only as normative ideals but also as a living system of social control within the community. Integrating local cultural values into university curricula and learning activities can strengthen students’ cognitive, affective, and moral behavioral development. Thus, this approach fosters students who do not merely understand anti-corruption principles theoretically but also adopt them as a way of life.
