Abstract

This article deals with an agrarian dispute that has expanded from the ‘plantation belt’ to the swampy area on the East Coast of North Sumatra, which intertwined with a colonial legacy, environmental issue, Masyarakat Adat discourse, and recent political development. I conducted fieldwork in 2014 and periodic visits in 2015 to live among the community, observe, discuss, and document the events that occurred in the periods, and analyze them historically and also in the recent socio-political and economic context. Focussing on a community called Orang Paluh who are mostly the descendants of the ex-plantation labors in Percut residing on the marshland named Paluh Merbau, this research looks at their attempts in dealing with land grabbing, the change of land use, and in negotiating with the restriction in utilizing mangrove trees in their surroundings. In such a social arena of the dispute, Orang Paluh played multiple strategies against land grabbing through mass mobilization, legal dispute, political support from the local political elites, and an alliance with Badan Perjuangan Rakyat Penunggu Indonesia (BPRPI), which holds a mandate as a regional branch of Aliansi Masyarakat Adat Nusantara (AMAN).

Abstract

The Lampung tribe is a minority tribe established by Lampung Province. The Lampung Province became a destination for population migration, so Lampung was discussed by Javanese, Sundanese, Balinese and so on. As a minority tribe, the Lampung tribe needs to strengthen its cultural identity among the people so that the cultural values of the Lampung tribe are not lost. Piil Pesenggiri is a philosophy of life that has become the cultural identity of the Lampung tribe. The purpose of this study is to explain the principles of Piil Pesenggiri so that its values can be rebuilt. This article was written in the literature study method with a collection of various sources of books, journals and research on the Piil Pesenggiri. The results show four principles of Piil Pesenggiri that need to be revived, namely juluk adek, nemui nyimah, nemui nyapur and sakai sambyan. Cooperation between all parties, namely traditional leaders, community members, academics and the government, is needed to revive the principles of Piil Pesenggiri.

Abstract

Since the days of kingship-kingdoms in Indonesia, Java, especially Surakarta, has been attached to something mystical. This has to do with forces beyond human power. This behavior exists because that power can have a positive impact. Examples can perpetuate power, bring authority, attract fortune, and attract. But interestingly, at that time mystical behavior was hidden while in this modern and democratic era mysticism was packaged in a different form. This research is qualitative research with an ethnographic approach that focuses on the peculiarities of mysticism in the city of Surakarta in 2019-2020. The data collected comes from the first observations made in Surakarta. Second, interviews with mystical actors.

Data analysis using ethnographic analysis model. The result is that the people of Surakarta, especially government leaders and those with an interest in maintaining mysticism by making mystical traditions become cultural preservation, are legally regulated in policy, the implementation of traditional rituals is open so that people participate, and make irrational ones rational.

Abstract

This study was aimed at investigating how the Sade indigenous communities in Lombok carried out their socio-cultural transformation (especially during the Covid-19 pandemic). Specifically, this study sought for evidence of how the communities balanced the demands of tourism industry while preserving the local culture during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The data were collected through interview and participant observation. The study revealed the socio-cultural transformation of the Sade-Lombok indigenous community during the Covid-19 pandemic was in form of community’s creativities and reforms in accommodating particular changes caused by the pandemic and modifying particular community rituals. The accommodation and modification were reinforced by the demands of the government, tourism agency and/or economic needs. Therefore, the study concluded that the socio-cultural transformation of the Sade-Lombok indigenous community during the Covid-19 pandemic was achieved through dialectical processes between anxiety and calmness resulted in the preservation of the local traditions, creativity, and reforms.

Abstract

Social changes that make society can influence the apparatus. Social changes have an impact on families in Indonesia. The narrower the workforce is coupled with the increasing needs of the family, the older the migrant worker works. As a result, the roles and functions of the family do not work properly. The impact is that the children commit juvenile delinquency. Like it or not, parents still guide their children and understand sexual education so that children do not engage in deviant behavior. This research method uses descriptive qualitative methods. The research focuses on how migrant workers instill sex education in children. There were six informants including 3 migrant workers and 3 migrant workers. Data techniques are observation and open interviews. The results of this study indicate that each migrant worker has a way of imparting sexual education to children. Differences in the cultivation of character education are motivated by several factors. One of them is the cultural factor of the country where the parents work. Furthermore, the acceptance of children in sex education and its application is almost similar. Children still maintain the limits of norms that apply in society.

Abstract

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan analisis mengenai kasus pernikahan usia anak atau disebut juga pernikahan usia dini yang terjadi dalam masyarakat nagari Sialang.  Masyarakat Sialang yang terdiri dari empat jorong yaitu Jorong Sialang Bawah, Jorong Sialang Atas, Jorong Ronah Bengkek dan Jorong Kampung Harapan.  Kasus pernikahan dini paling banyak terjadi di Jorong Ronah Bengkek dan kampung Harapan, uniknya di dua Jorong ini juga banyak ditemukan kasus kehamilan sebelum menikah.  Masyarakat Sialang menganggap bahwa kehamilan sebelum menikah merupakan suatu dosa, sehingga harus dilakukan ritual doro yang merupakan prosesi ‘pembersihan dosa’.  Hal ini berbeda dengan kasus pernikahan dini. Untuk kasus pernikahan dini, masyarakat tidak menganggap bahwa hal tersebut merupakan sebuah masalah.  Menikah di usia muda dianggap sebagai sebuah solusi untuk permasalahan sosial yang tidak bisa diselesaikan oleh lembaga agama, adat dan pemerintahan nagari.  Tiga lembaga ini disebut dengan tigo tali sapilin.  Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lembaga tigo tali sapilin menjadikan pernikahan di usia muda menjadi solusi dari permasalahan sosial yang ada dalam masyarakat.  Fenomena ini dapat dianalisis dengan menggunakan teori Robert K. Merton mengenai disfungsi sistem sosial.  Hal ini terbukti dengan data mengenai doro yang dijadikan sebagai sarana pengintegrasian bagi pasangan yang hamil di luar nikah, tetapi tidak adanya sarana pengintegrasian bagi pelaku pernikahan dini.  Selain itu, menikah diusia muda dianggap sebagai sarana penghambat bagi kasus kehamilan sebelum menikah.  Tigo tali sapilin dianggap mampu menyelesaikan permasalahan kehamilan di luar nikah dengan cara membiarkan pernikahan usia anak sebagai salah satu langkah strategisnya.  Hal ini membuktikan bahwa tigo tali sapilin mengalami disfungsi dalam menangani fenomena pernikahan usia anak dalam masyarakat Sialang.

By taking narratives of activist and dynamic in landscape, geography, history and mobility, this paper shows the significance of using of the material, the meanings and the discourse in social interaction of religious group in survive their ritual practice.

Abstract

 Indonesia has various traditional foods, some of which are the result of acculturation with other countries’ foods. Sangga buwana is the Javanese-Dutch influenced cuisine, which became one of the favorite dishes of the sultans of Yogyakarta. Till date, the publication about sangga buwana is still limited. This paper aimed to introduce and spread the knowledge about sangga buwana as the result of food acculturation, focusing on its history, philosophy, how it is prepared, and its nutritional value. The study was carried out through interviews with the experts and literature review. Sangga buwana consists of several components, including choux pastry, ragout, lettuce, boiled egg, Javanese mustard, and pickled vegetables. Sangga buwana itself and every component to prepare it have the meaningful philosophy about God’s creations. It delivers important wishes and meanings to the newlywed couple in royal wedding ceremony. It was only served to the sultan, royal family of Yogyakarta, and their important guests. But nowadays, sangga buwana can be more easily found at restaurants, traditional markets or food festivals in Yogyakarta. The cultural preservation of sangga buwana has been conducted through cultural festivals, cooking workshops, and research development using local ingredients to prepare it which may support food diversification
