Abstract

Dewasa ini bisnis warung kopi mengalami perkembangan yang pesat bersamaan dengan penciptaan selera, hasrat, dan gaya hidup baru kelas menengah kota. Jika dulu minum kopi identik dengan orangtua, kini melalui berbagai iklan, kopi hadir sebagai minuman supermahal, identik dengan kemewahan dan gaya hidup kelas menengah. Dengan memilih Kota Tanjung Pandan dan Manggar di Pulau Belitung sebagai studi kasus, artikel ini mencoba melihat faktor-faktor kemunculan, perkembangan, fungsi warung kopi, dan peran komunitasnya dalam konteks politik dan ekonomi yang lebih luas. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian sejarah, observasi langsung dan wawancara mendalam dengan pemilik dan pelanggan serta masyarakat sekitar warung kopi, penelitian ini memperlihatkan bahwa warung kopi tidak hanya sekedar sebuah usaha bisnis dan ruang publik yang memuaskan keinginan, hasrat pencandu kopi, tetapi adalah sebagai tempat membentuk komunitas, solidaritas dan saluran politik resistensi untuk memperjuangkan keadilan. Perkembangan ini berproses dan itu tidak dapat dipisahkan dari perkembangan ekonomi dan politik lokal/nasional. Kata kunci: Warung kopi, perkembangan, komunitas, politik resistensi, Belitung

Abstract

For 300 years,. the name of Sheikh Yusuf, son of Macassar was missing from the governments attention and public intellectual as well. But when Nelson Mandela, President of South Africa,. commemorated 300 years of the arrival of Sheikh Yusuf in Cape Town in 1994, since that time government institution civil society and academics from Indonesia and South Africa have been paying to attention to remember, understand and study him from various perspectives. By using concept of remembering and forgetting, this article shows that the process of remembering by the two countries did not take place in the empty space, but rely on psychological consideration of the individuals, communities and socio-political condition from the two countries. The process of forgetting constructed by the Dutch colonial state in 17th century became inversely proportional to the action of remembering the Sheikh Yusuf by African and Indonesian officials in 20th century. The proces of remembering shows its own dynamics ranging from individuals communities to public memory. When remembering Syekh Yusuf reached state memory or public memory it became a power that can define and plan a socio-political and economic agenda for the future by the countries.

Abstract

The professional historians tend to gather information more on the sources of archives and other documentary materials than unwritten sources through interviews. However, since the emergence of oral history in the 19th century in the West, the ongoing debates have been occurring between the pros and the cons with the use of oral sources for writing history. Nevertheless, the oral history activity continues, beginning from its focus on elite experience as found in the United States in 1948, to the experience of ordinary people in Britain in the 1950s and 1960s. Advances in recording technology and new approaches of other social disciplines such as antropology and sociology to oral history, have given a broad influence on historians in third world countries, including Indonesia. Gathering information from oral history, new data found and new historical analysis can be made. This paper tries to see the use and development of oral history in Indonesia. The first section will map the development of Indonesian historiography very briefly and the problem of sources. The next section focuses on the development of oral history in the West and then its influence in Indonesia. The third section describes the use of oral history and its approach, and finally concludes with some closing notes.Keywords: Indonesian historiography, oral history, object, context.

Abstract

Recently the flow of labour from China to Indonesia has fuelled many discussions but is not a new phenomenon. It can be traced back to the eighteenth century and continued until the twentieth century. In colonial Indonesia, the Chinese labour force was recruited to work in the economic sectors of mining, plantations, fisheries and forestry. Unfortunately, previous studies about Chinese society in Indonesia more focused on economic and political elites rather than the social history of the Chinese contract coolies. This article attempts to look at the labour history of the Chinese coolie in the forest exploitation companies, known as panglong. By focusing on the ways in which they were treated in the recruitment process and workplace, this article shows that changes for the better did take place in the appalling working conditions of the labourers. Until the second decade of the twentieth century, recruitment, food, and health care were rife with manipulations, exacerbated by arduous working conditions and insecurity in the workplace, abuse of power by mandors and forms of non-economic coercion like the use of opium. All these factors were meant to ensure that the Chinese contract labourers could not break loose from their indentures, a modern form of slavery. Hampered by budgetary restrictions, lack of personnel, and marine transport facilities, the state colonial officials were hamstrung. But in the second decade of twentieth century, when the abysmal working conditions of the Chinese coolies were debated on a higher level by politicians and bureauracts state control was tightened. More effectual control by the state had a positive effect on improving of the working and living conditions.
