Abstract

This paper is a critical examination of the bi-polaric view of the Indonesian archipelago: Java being the center and the rest of the territory as outer islands. A discourse surrounding the centrality of Java within the conception of Indonesia is created through a variety of mediums, including through education and the arts. Anti-New Order thinkers have attacked this image as part of the way in which the state rams down an essentialist Javanese image to everyone in the archipelago. Yet to say that this was the creation of an elite-Javanese controlled state is misleading. Instead of being a primordial expression of an ur-nationality smothered under the weight of a colonial empire, this paper wants to show that this process was contingent upon a series of historical development in the eitghteenth and early nineteenth century that allowed for the creation of territorial image of a state.

Abstract

From an economic point of view, pawnshop has an important function as a micro-credit institution, especially for those living in the rural areas where access to capital market is often limited. In Java, pawnshop business has existed since the VOC period in the eighteenth century, but it only really burgeoned under the colonial state administration in the early twentieth century. In such a long period, pawnshop business shifted in nature from a private economic activity during the nineteenth century to a public service in the early twentieth century. The introduction of the Ethical Policy in 1901 brought the pawnshop government service into new direction; it became an instrument of welfare program to provide popular credit for indigenous population in rural areas that helped to free them from excessive usurious practices and indebtedness to illegal moneylenders. This paper argues that the operation of this government enterprise, in fact, deviated from its ‘ethical’ commitment and worked as usual ‘profit-making’ organization. This proved another irony of the Ethical Policy in Java and the Netherlands Indies in general.

Abstract

After the Netherlands was occupied by the Germany NAZI, the Dutch colonial state in the Indies was reaching to the edge of the Pacific War. To deal with the situation, the colonial government endeavored many attempts to boost the defense of the colonial state especially by advancing up their army’s weaponry and mobilizing manpower. Although gained robust support to modernize the weapons, the government only had a little success to infuse manpower to their forces. This article mainly discusses the considerations within the circle of the colonial government in order to improve the defense of the Netherlands Indies. It seeks to the answer for the question on why the colonial government’s plan to mobilize manpower only met few successes. It eventually argues that the anxiety and the attitude of the colonial government impeded their own plan to improve the defense.

Abstract

This article points out the development of the Dutch East India Company in China tea trade. As this article shows, the Dutch had the superior role to supply Asian product in Europe in the seventeenth century. They held the Spice Island in the archipelago. On the other hand the product from Spice Island was not so fashionable in the eighteenth century. The British took over a leading position in the world market by having a direct route to China. In Europe, China tea became popular. The Dutch wanted to compete with the British in tea trade. To explain the dynamics of the Dutch in China tea trade, the Chinese character became important to understand. The Dutch strategies to deal with the tea trade in China showed that they longed to get back to their glorious day in Europe as a leader.

Abstract

This study is an attempt to explore the life of a ludruk actor named Hasan Basori. Ludruk is sort of teather typically attributed to East Java in origin and in character. Hasan Basori was the leader of a ludruk group Bintang Warna (Star of Colors). This study discusses a correlation between the figure of Hasan Basori and ludruk, and how he managed to maintain a degree of loyalty to his profession as a ludruk actor despite the very modest life he had to live for choosing the profession.As a rural actor, Hasan Basori and his cultural activities are hardly recorded in any written documents on ludruk. Thus, in the present study interview became an essential method to collect primary data, while written documents were used as secondary sources of data. This study was focused on Hasan Basori’s motivation for choosing the ludruk teather as a way of life, the artistic process of becoming a ludruk actor, and the characteristic figure of an actor.It seems that Hasan Basori took for granted his life as a ludruk actor. For him ludruk was his life and his life was for performing ludruk. He did not leave the ludruk stage although it earned him only a very simple living. Most of the time he had to take sidejobs in order to cover the daily life of his and his family. Even though it was extremely tough economically, Basori never ceased performing ludruk, thus showing his loyalty to the artistic process in his life. He managed the ludruk as an entertainment product caring for the progress in the trend of art, flexible towards various contexts of changes.

Abstract

This paper, entitled ‘The development of cigarette advertising design in Java in 1930 – 1970s’, discusses the transformation of cigarette advertising design. It also discusses the influence of colonial and post-colonial political regimes and the modernization in cigarette advertising visualization between 1930 – 1970s. Research is focused on observation of advertising elements, such as headline, body-copy, illustration, and the art of appearance. These were obtained from the primary sources, such as newspapers, which were published during the period. Secondary sources were also used, for example, relevant books. Based on observation and analysis of cigarette advertisements, it is obvious that the creativity in cigarette advertising design continued to grow, and visual transformation from manual illustration to photo technology occured in the period under study. In addition, there were representations of symbols in cigarette advertising design because of the influence of colonial and post-colonial political regimes and because of the process of modernization.

Abstract

Right from the start of his banishment to the Netherlands in fall 1913, Soewardi Suryaningrat had been trying to make the Dutch colonial government revoke this decision. For this he approached the social democrats that were actually in the opposition. But to no avail, and Soewardi became disillusioned with the social democrats. Analysing his conflict with the left makes clear in which direction Soewardi’s nationalism was heading. Was he just an “early Javanese-Indonesian nationalist”, or is there more to say about his brand of nationalism?

Abstract

This paper explores the history of the Theosophical Society in colonial Indonesia within the perspective of intellectual history and how it impact the thoughts of Javanese nationalist-aristocrat. The theosophical movement shared the same ideals with Dutch association policy. The main idea is to raise Eastern culture and society to become equals with Western civilisation. The theosophical movement had major contribution in the Javanese cultural revival movement. Many aspect of Theosophy’s teachings dealt with Indian esoteric cult, which had a strong impact to the vision of Javanese cultural nationalist: that the ideal Javanese society is no other than ancient Javanese civilisation under Hindu-Buddhist tradition.

Abstract

This papers explores the thoughts of Javanese nationalists during the early phase of Indonesian nationalism. It will specifcally look into the ideas of Tjipto Mangoenkoesoemo and Noto Soeroto as prototypes of new nationalist sentiments that grew during a period of intense revolutionary fervor, marked by the rise of marxism and fascism throughout the world. By looking at these factors, it wants to situate the global roots of Indonesian nationalism and contextualize Indonesian nationalist history within the global development of the early twentieth century.
