Abstract
This paper aimed to describe and explained the pattern and mechanism of some religion communities, literature community, art community, and ex-terrorist community in Central Java Province to prevent radicalism and terrorism. The method used in this research was qualitative, which focused on interviewed the leaders of the community. They are Gema Salam Foundation, Fatayat Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Solo, Fatayat Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Karanganyar, Muslimat NU Karanganyar, Nasyatul Aisyiyah Solo, Perpustakaan Keliling Karanganyar, and Pintu Community. The results of this study showed that the preventing mechanism divided into two categories. The first one was building a communication and a prevention among some of them. The second one was building a confidence among Gema Salam Foundation, the local government, and the local police department. Unfortunately, these seven actors have not been connected to each other in the same forum or the same activity. This is actually strategic considering that they are represent the only ex-terrorist node in Central Java, the largest religious-based mass node in Central Java, and literacy movers with the potential of extensive networks nationally and internationally. If communication is well established, then preventive efforts will be comprehensive in its implementation
