| Summary: | This research investigates the views of senior high school students in Indonesia regarding the indonesia-malaysia confrontation in the 1962-1966 period. The Grounded Theory approach in this study involves collecting data through in-depth interviews with diverse high school students, followed by inductive analysis to identify key themes and develop a theory on how students interpret the indonesia-malaysia confrontation. The analysis results show that students have various perspectives on this conflict, influenced by formal education, social influences, culture, and mass media. Most students identified the conflict as part of the history of national struggle and the values of patriotism, while others assessed its relevance in modern international relations. The integration of political socialization theory with findings from previous research deepens understanding of the complexity of the process of forming students' political views. The implications of this research include the importance of increasing inclusive history education and involving diverse educational media to strengthen students' understanding of international diplomacy. Limitations of the study include a limited sample and focus on a qualitative approach, which suggests further research involving a broader population and different methodological approaches.
