Prabowo, 2009, in Thought Principles on Universal War page 37, explained that when the term universal people's war rolled around, the perception that was reflected in most of the people's thinking was generally massive or massive battles involving all Indonesian people in facing enemy aggression. Many are concerned about the treatment of the people who are armed and played as combat units or combatants, or think that the concept of universal war will combine the treatment of combatants with non-combatants and civilians as stipulated in article-3 of the 4th Geneva Convention, 1949. These concerns have surfaced due to an inaccurate understanding of war. Even hearing the term universal people's war, what you can imagine is a guerrilla war that occurred during the past independence war. After all, war is completely different from battle. Universal people's war cannot be completely equated with a 'guerrilla war'. If combat generally uses lethal weapons and of course it is the affairs of the army, war does not have to use weapons and it is the state's business, not only the affairs of the army, such as trade wars, ideological wars, information wars and many other wars. It is generally known that war is defined as an armed conflict that occurs between two or more countries. However, this does not mean that the universal people's war can only be interpreted as an all-out battle in defending the Republic of Indonesia when facing enemy aggression. Universal war also does not have to mobilize civilians to be prepared to become combat forces (combatants) in the form of volunteers or volunteers, as happened during Operation Dwikora in 1963-1966 when the Indonesia-Malaysia confrontation occurred. Citing the definition of war which is described as "... large-scale conflicts between (several) countries or within countries, which are related to issues of sovereignty and / or territorial integrity of a country ...". So, war does not only occur between countries, but can 13 Ernes & I Wayan Midhio; IAR J Huma Soc Sci; Vol-2, Iss- 3 (May-Jun, 2021): 13-25 also occur within countries where there are large-scale conflicts related to issues of sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country. The understanding of this war is a little different when faced with TNI Law number 34 of 2004 which mandates that in carrying out its main duties to uphold state sovereignty, maintain territorial integrity and protect the entire nation, the TNI can carry out War Military Operations and Military Operations in addition to War. It is assumed that the understanding of war in the TNI Law can only occur with other countries when there is armed conflict or aggression. According to Dr. I Wayan Midhio, M.Phil. 2021 in the course "Indonesian Universal War Strategy" in Semester II lectures, Students of the Master Program for Universal War Strategy Study Program, Jakarta Defense University, 20 January 2021 explain the understanding of the meaning / definition of war and the universe as follows: (1) Universal War does not have to be done with using military means, for example, fighting using firearms, (2) The involvement of the people in war does not have to be by physically arming them and playing them as an armed combat force or combatant, (3) In view of the threat to the country's sovereignty and the territorial integrity of Indonesia, not only from “foreign” military forces but also from domestic groups (separatists) so universal war can occur when dealing with separatist groups. In the State Defense Doctrine, it is explained that the Universal People's War is essentially a total war for all Indonesian people by mobilizing all national strength and resources to uphold state sovereignty, territorial integrity and national safety from other nations that threaten or occupy the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. Furthermore, it is said that the Universal People's War is populist, universal and territorial. Democracy is manifested through the participation of all Indonesian people according to their roles, abilities, professions and expertise as a manifestation of the rights and obligations of every citizen in defending the country. The universality is realized through the influence of all Indonesian national strengths and resources to be able to be mobilized in the interests of facing threats, both from outside and within the country. Meanwhile, territoriality is manifested in the empowerment of the entire territory of the country as a fighting space in developing a defense strategy in order to achieve goals. The Universal People's War for Indonesia today is essentially a total war for all Indonesians, but that does not mean that all people are played as combatants. This understanding is not exactly the same as total war in a universal sense. Letjen TNI JS. Prabowo, 2009, also explained that the implementation of universal war, namely from the exploratory discussion aimed at exploring the nature and problems of war, then the understanding of the current universal war cannot be equated with an understanding or perception in the era of the war for independence (1945-1950). It must be well understood that today universal war is not an all-out war. The slogans of General A.H. Nasution, 1989; "Guerrilla points: and the defense of the Republic of Indonesia in the past and in the future Page 34 in the war in the past such as; maintain every inch of land, unyielding, or slogan of daring to die is not a dogmatic law of war, and does not have to be done literally, but only an incendiary spirit. Today the universal war is certainly no longer entirely similar to the war for independence that took place more than 60 years ago (1945-1950), which at that time was estimated to have resulted in as many as 70,000-200,000 victims of the Indonesian population.
