The Jurnal Kajian Bali (Journal of Bali Studies) is an area study journal that specializes in publishing research-based articles about Bali. The topics of articles about Bali that can be published are very diverse including Balinese culture, politics, music, language, architecture, literature, history, mass media, popular culture, tourism, economy, environment, health, law, management, religion, and Balinese customs. The journal would also like to publish articles on Bali with comparative approaches. The Jurnal Kajian Bali (Journal of Bali Studies) is published twice a year, every April and October. Published articles are reviewed in a single blinded manner. The Jurnal Kajian Bali (Journal of Bali Studies) was first published in April 2011 by the Center for Balinese Studies, University of Udayana. Starting from April 2019, the journal is published jointly by the Center for Balinese Studies and the Center of Excellence in Tourism, University of Udayana. However, starting April 2020, the Jurnal Kajian Bali (Journal of Bali Studies) was published by the Center for Cultural Research and the Center of Excellence in Tourism, University of Udayana.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the priority of sustainable tourism event development strategies in Ubud-Bali with an Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The concept of sustainable tourism supported by the Grand Theory Event was used as a foundation in processing in-depth interview data with Penta helix experts, resulting in nine criteria and four alternative strategies. The results showed several strategies to develop sustainable events in Ubud: improving destination image, preserving local culture, increasing global networking, and developing green events. All of these are supported by increasing the network and image of Ubud as an environmentally friendly event destination. The novelty is that the resulting strategic priorities have considered environmental aspects, local culture, and community interests in Ubud. As an implication, the result can be used as a practical guide for tourism stakeholders in developing sustainable tourism events not only in Bali but also in Indonesia and around the world.

Abstract

The secularisation of sacred art in Bali is marked by its performances in various profane spaces and times. Local government regulations have not been able to overcome this problem. Therefore, this study aims to reflect critically on Balinese cultural politics in responding to the secularisation of sacred arts by applying qualitative methods. Data was collected through document studies, namely three policies related to strengthening and protecting sacred art in Bali and analysed using a critical policy analysis approach. This research found that the three policy documents were fragmentary in relation to other discourses. The regulation is also not implemented consistently, especially in relation to tourism. Based on this critical reflection, policies regarding sacred art in Bali need to be developed with a strategic and conceptual thinking (CST).

Abstract

Sevaka Dharma means servant of truth. This phrase only occurs in the Aji Sarasoti Merapi-Merbabu (MM) manuscript. This paper aims to elaborate on the phrase sa? sevaka dharma (a person who is honored for serving the truth) which is mentioned in the first line of the text so that the concept of sa? sevaka dharma can be understood correctly. Aji Sarasoti text which is used as the material object in this paper is the Merapi-Merbabu manuscript, which is stored in the National Library of Indonesia, code PNRI 11 L. 254. The method used is the basic method, while the theory used is hermeneutic. The PNRI 11 L. 254 manuscript contains not only the Aji Sarasoti text but also the Aji Panarawangan and Aji Pangsoluan Raga. Likewise, other Aji Sarasoti manuscripts were published together with other texts in one file. Meanwhile, the Sa? Sevaka Dharma which is mentioned in the Aji Sarasoti text refers to someone who is having to understand the teachings. The teaching in question is the teaching of liberating knowledge (jñ?na).

Abstract

Over the past four decades, Bali has emerged as a leading MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Exhibitions) tourism destination. This study examines the feasibility of organizing green-hybrid conferences in Bali post Covid-19, focusing on identifying key potentials and obstacles for effective management. Employing qualitative methods, utilizing interviews and document analysis, the research assesses infrastructure, human resources, and logistical aspects relevant to hosting such conferences. Bali demonstrates adequate infrastructure and human resources but encounters challenges like technological limitations and logistical dependence. These findings shed light on the complexities of implementing green-hybrid conference management post-pandemic. The study’s limitation lies in its focuses solely on Bali, thus potentially limiting generalizability. Nonetheless, it emphasizes collaborative stakeholder efforts and sustainable practices integration in conference management. It highlights the importance of investing in technology and local capacity building to improve feasibility. Future research could explore other destinations’ experiences regarding long term economic and environmental impacts of green-hybrid conference initiatives.

Abstract

This article investigates the movement of sensory visual disability individuals in Denpasar, Bali. The Nirkala Bali Community took the initiative to challenge prevailing stereotypes that link people with sensory visual impairments solely to occupations such as massage therapists and special education teachers. Instead, they underwent a significant transformation and actively participated in the arts sector. This paper aims to determine the success or lack thereof of their movement and to identify any growing support or awareness for it. This study employed a phenomenological approach and recruited participants from the entire Nirkala Bali Community. In-depth interviews and observations of artistic works uploaded to YouTube comprised the data collection process. This article serves as an introduction to the activism of the Nirkala Bali Community, which is representative of the sensory visual disability movement in Bali. This study is expected as the introduction that will facilitate comprehension of their endeavors to combat the pervasive stigmatization that pervades society.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine the impact of destination image, destination image, perceived value of medical costs, and perceived value of medical facilities and services on the intention to visit Bali as a medical tourism destination. The research used quantitative methodology, employing a survey method. The population consisted of all of domestic tourists who visited Bali. The sample was 87 domestic tourists who came to Bali for medical tourism purposes. The research findings indicate that destination image, perceived value of medical costs, and perceived value of medical facilities and services have an impact on intention to visit Bali for medical tourism. However, the perception of Bali as a destination did not have any impact on tourists' intention to visit for medical tourism purposes. These findings provide both theoretical and practical implication. A collaborative effort involving several parties is necessary to enhance the branding and promotion of medical tourism.

Abstract

This research aims to validate the memorable experiences of domestic tourists during their travels in Bali. The significance of this topic lies in the absence of studies on the post-pandemic memorable experiences of domestic tourists in Bali. The natural beauty and cultural arts, interactions with the local community and fellow tourists, as well as culinary and gastronomic experiences, are factors contributing to these memorable experiences, serving as primary reasons for domestic tourists to return to Bali. The research used a quantitative approach, involving a survey of 68 members of the academic community from Indonesian universities. The research suggests that the perceived excellence of tourism services in Bali positively influences tourists' likelihood of returning to the destination. Positive experiences in places like Pandawa, Ubud, Uluwatu, and Nusa Penida influence tourists' tendency to return to Bali. The research adds to the existing body of literature on memorable experiences of domestic tourists in Bali and highlights the need for sustainable gastronomic maps, halal, and vegan food options for tourists.

Abstract

The spatial arrangement of the Tenganan Dauh Tukad (TDT) settlement is perceived as the acculturation of Bali Aga (Old Bali) and Java Hindu Kingdom of Majapahit traditions. Accordingly, this study identifies the concepts, values, and philosophy behind residential space arrangement. Thus, this study enacted an interpretative approach. Data analysis was performed qualitatively in residential settings, i.e., culture, behavior, and spatial. This study demonstrated that the geometric construction of residential space in the TDT was formed in three manners. First, it blended the existing philosophy of harmony between the macrocosm and microcosm concepts. Second, the spatial arrangement of the TDT settlement adhered to the inward-oriented concept, with the village road as the central axis of village orientation. Third, cultural acculturation between the Bali Aga and Majapahit caused alterations in the settlement’s spatial orientation. This article contributes as a reference in creating traditional residential spaces that must consider socio-cultural aspects dynamically.

Abstract

Food loss and waste (FLW) is a global issue that affects the environment, economy, and society. It also poses a challenge for the sustainability of Japanese culinary tourism which is a growing sector in Bali. This study aims to explore how a sushi restaurant in Bali especially at The Aburi Sushi Bali manages its FLW and contributes to sustainable culinary tourism. The study adopts a qualitative case study approach, using semi-structured interviews, observation, and document analysis as data collection methods. The findings reveal that The Aburi Sushi implements various strategies to prevent, reduce, and recover FLW, such as inventory management, portion control, menu design, staff training, customer education, and food donation. The study also identifies the benefits and challenges of FLW management for the restaurant and its stakeholders. The study concludes that FLW management enhances the environmental, economic, and social sustainability of culinary tourism enterprises in Bali. It also provides implications and recommendations for practitioners and policymakers to improve FLW management practices in the culinary tourism sector
