This article discusses the shifting patterns of terrorist movements in Indonesia and the response of civil society coalitions in building peace networks. This issue is discussed because the acts of terrorism that have occurred since the first Bali Bombing in 2002 have undergone a transformation in the goals and targets of terror acts. The first generation of acts of terrorism in Indonesia was targeted as revenge against the United States government and its citizens as well as supporting coalition countries. Changes in the terror movement occurred by making the security forces the target of terror after the 2003 terrorism law was issued. This paper uses a qualitative method that explains data using content analysis methods. The results of this research reveal that an ethic of care that prioritizes empathy is the key to creating immunity to extremism in society. Immunity based on a sense of concern requires the synergy of civil society to work together to reduce the potential for radicalization in society.
