Abstract: This research aims to create a model for acculturation dialogue between representatives of religion, local wisdom, and power. The study uses a socially defined paradigm as an approach to cultural acculturation and adopts the theory of institutional development acculturation of Islam (almuhaafadhatu ala al-qadiimi al-shaalih wa al-akhdu bi al-jadiidi al-ashlah). This research found five models for acculturation dialogue between religion, local wisdom and power, namely, 1) taggayyur /deculturating /changing, 2) takammul /additive/ perfecting, 3) tahammul /considerate /tolerant, 4) tasallum /inclusive /receptive, and 5) tamsarrub /institutive /absorbing. The first acculturation model tends to reject the other cultures. The second model tends to be open and cross-sectoral in its approach. The third model is tolerant and accepting of all. The fourth model tends to be open and objective in recognizing truth and goodness from outside of itself, an acculturation model that has the potential to create peace and harmony. The fifth model seeks to absorb universal values so that together cultures are institutionalized into a new cultural unity.
