The study of radicalism has become a study that has long been the focus of researchers, including religious radicalism (Muzakkir: 2.
This study tends to talk about, first, how radicalism originated and originated, in this case radical movements always have a relationship with jihad, especially in fighting evil (Nurrohman: 2.
second, studies that look at the side of radicalism in society which is influenced by educational factors, economic factors and environmental factors (Nurrohman: 2.
Third, a study that looks at how the roots of radicalism arise in society, one of the root causes for the emergence of radicalism in society is due to prejudice launched by the media (Wirnani L: 2.
There are still not many studies that look at the construction of radicalism in society, starting from AuInnovations to Support Emancipated Learning (MBKM).

the process of understanding indoctrination to the actions they take both in society and in certain places.
This paper complements the shortcomings of the studies that have been pointed out.
In line with that, there are three pieces of evidence showing that the construction of the meaning of radicalism among the people starts from their understanding of radicalism.
First, radicalism means violence.
second, radicalism has a violent meaning.
radicalism means fanatical.
fourth, radicalism means prejudice (Suudz Zho.
These four things are the main focus of this paper.
This research departs from the assumption that, the more understanding of the meaning of radicalism in society, the more people will avoid acts of radicalism.
This research focuses on the construction of the meaning of radicalism for society by examining people's understanding of the meaning of radicalism.

Results and Discussion The findings of the research results are intended to answer the formulated Research data in this study were obtained through observation, documentation and in-depth interviews conducted by researchers in 2022.
Where all the informants who were interviewed were the people of Gampong Bueng Bakjok Aceh Besar.
This research was conducted through a descriptive approach.
Researchers must describe, explain and describe the data that has been obtained in the field through in-depth interviews conducted with informants.
Researchers used typology .

to analyze the construction of understanding the meaning of radicalism in the Gampong Bueng Bakjok Society, namely a typology of community groups.
In the construction process of understanding the meaning of radicalism, there are various dialects between the subjective world of each Gampong Bueng Bakjok Community, and the reality of the phenomena of radicalism that occur.
From the dialectical process in the Gampong Bueng Bakjok community studied, researchers see that there are three broad outlines of construction variants of understanding the meaning of radicalism in the Gampong Bueng Bakjok community, in looking at the issue of radicalism, namely those who are classified as moderate contextual .

, contextual fundamentalist .
dealist ) and contextual pragmatic.
The results of interviews with the people of Gampong Bueng Bakjok, can be seen in the table below:
Radicalism means violence The opinions of the informants in the table above are in accordance with Nurossobah's opinion, that the element of violence has included the notion of radicalism.
The purpose of using violence is to drastically change socio-political conditions.
This element of violence is also closely related to terrorism, because in KBBI, terrorism is defined as the use of violence to create fear in an effort to achieve goals .
specially political goal.
by practicing acts of terror.
Radicalism Means Feeling Right (Nurossobach Claiming that one's own group is right and misleads other groups who have different opinions from them.
The assumption of truth always emerges from those who seem as if they were prophets and feel self-ambitious who have never made any mistakes.
Pretending to be the most righteous cannot be justified because humans only have relative truth and only God knows the ultimate truth.
Therefore, if there are certain groups who feel that they are self-righteous, they will immediately act arrogantly to seize Allah's authority unless there is an argument that clarifies it.
From the explanation above, the researcher summarizes the understanding of the impact of the assumption of truth, because those with a level of radicalism feel that their beliefs and beliefs are the most appropriate.
With understanding, they feel there is nothing wrong with them.
Parties responsible for handling acts of radicalism must be able to quickly overcome According to the researchers, this is normal amid the government's attitude that is very serious about dealing with the problem of radicalism, but no one admits or feels they are radicalists.
As a result, giving the title radical is pinned on anyone by society, who is considered to be strict in upholding religious principles, and critical of the government.
So according to researchers, people often have prejudice against something that is sometimes not necessarily true, but if the prejudice is based on evidence, or signs, or reasons that corroborate the accusation, it is permissible.
For example, if we see someone we know who is taking his non-mahram in a dark place, we may assume that he wants to AuInnovations to Support Emancipated Learning (MBKM).

Being radical is not the same as condoning violence or chaos.
