PONDERING RELIGIOUS WORK ETHICS IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS (2006) AND DOA YANG MENGANCAM (2008)
The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) and Doa yang Mengancam [Threatening Prayer] (2008), which represent Protestants ethics and Islamic values, show significant implications for the dynamics of the work ethic of each main character. Both films show the adventures of the characters to achieve prosperity and the finding for the meaning of a prosperous life which indirectly shows the form of work ethic in a struggle. The problem discussed in this comparison of two literary works is the influence of two different religious values on a person's work ethic. The foundation of the comparative literature paradigm is that by analyzing literary works from various cultural and linguistic contexts, we can better understand how historical and cultural situations shape human experience, such as the religious work ethic. The theory used in solving this case is Stuart Hall's representation theory using his third paradigm, constructivism. This paradigm revolves around 4 variables: (1) Symbolic Function: Certain things symbolize or represent an ideal concept and convey meaning. (2) Image Function: The image as an ideologically framed signifier, message, and meaning. (3) Discursive Function: A group of statements providing language to discuss a particular topic that conveys meaning. (4) Myth Function: Giving meaning to something that is essentially cultural into something that manifests naturally (Hall, 1997, p. 22). The method used in this research is a qualitative research method that emphasizes the process of interpretation in an analysis. The findings of this study are that Chris, as a Protestant, has a higher work ethic than Madrim as a Muslim. This is due to the influence of Max Weber's Protestant Ethics principles that have flourished in America. However, this has an impact on the Protestant's more materialistic attitude, whereas Muslims always balance between worldly wealth and good deeds in the afterlife
