Core Subject : Humanities, Art,
Cultural studies constitutes an interdisciplinary area critically discussing socio-political contexts of various cultural practices in society. Its focus is on the relation among such cultural practices and the power controlling them. Cultural studies was pioneered by the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies (CCCS) of the University of Birmingham, England, in 1960s. Unlike what has been a tradition in the modern epistemology, cultural studies is concerned with what human emancipation aims at. Therefore, cultural studies does not only refer to a theoretical-conceptual matter but also to the location and critical action in which it manifests itself.

Abstract

Dolanan is a childrens game which is done while singing in order to have fun. As one of the cultural heritage, dolanan contains great national values which can be imparted into children as the foundation of character building thus having a platform and a strong identity. Nowadays dolanan is marginalized because children are more fond with various types of imported games which is packaged with sophisticated technology that makes them increasingly kept away from its own cultural roots. This reality is really concerning because we can lose an effective tool in imparting cultural values which is important for character building. Based on that reality, a research is conducted entitled “Dolanan Mabarong- barongan Performing Arts of Badung Regency at the Bali Arts Festival XXXII in 2010”. The problem that is the focus of this research is the factors that led to the creation of representation of Dolanan Mabarong-barongan of Badung Regency in the XXXII Bali Arts Festival in 2010. This research is a qualitative research, viewed from cultural studies prespective. To dissect the problem, the social practices theory of Pierre Bourdieu is used. The result of this research is that the factors that led to the creation of the representation of dolanan mabarong-barongan are the Bali Arts Festival, the ideology of the artist, the creativity of artists, community, arts education institutions, government policies, and globalization.

Abstract

Keputusan pemerintah untuk merevitalisasi dan mengelompokkan organisasi perempuan di bawah departemen dalam federasi mengakibatkan lahirnya Pemberdayaan dan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK), yaitu organisasi yang mewadahi perempuan yang tidak berada di bawah departemen. Kehadiran PKK selain diharapkan mampu membawa keluarga pada kondisi sejahtera dan mandiri, juga mampu membebaskan perempuan dari belenggu budaya patriarkhi. Namun, kenyataannya PKK belum sepenuhnya mampu mengubah kondisi keluarga dan perempuan, sehingga belum terwujud kesetaraan dan keadilan gender. Adanya kesenjangan ini menyebabkan perlunya melakukan penelitian terhadap PKK, khususnya di kota Malang. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji: (1) faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi munculnya PKK; (2) paradigma kelembagaan yang dikembangkan PKK; dan (3) makna PKK dikaitkan dengan kesetaraan dan keadilan gender.Penelitian ini mengambil lokasi di kota Malang, dengan subjek: PKK kota Malang, kecamatan Lowokwaru dan kelurahan Lowokwaru. Pendekatan kualitatif digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Penentuan informan dilakukan secara purposive. Teknik pengumpulan data melalui: observasi partisipasi, wawancara dan, pemanfaatan dokumen. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif kualitatif dan interpretatif.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi munculnya PKK adalah: politik, ekonomi, sosial dan budaya. Faktor ekonomi merupakan faktor paling berpengaruh pada awal kemunculan PKK, namun dalam perkembangannya faktor politik menjadi dominan karena terjadinya politisasi gerakan perempuan; (2) paradigma kelembagaan yang dikembangkan PKK adalah paradigma dari atas ke bawah (top down) dan bergerak dari konsep pendidikan, pembinaan, dan pemberdayaan; (3) makna PKK dikaitkan dengan kesetaraan dan keadilan gender, yaitu makna keharmonisan, makna solidaritas, makna keadilan, makna keselarasan, dan makna keseimbangan.

Abstract

This present study was intended to identify the form, factor, and impact of the stereotype of the Madurese ethnic people made by the Javanese ethnic people through humors. The data in the present study were collected through in-depth interview, observation, documentary study, and library research. There were several factors which contributed to the stereotype of the Madurese ethnic people made by the Javanese ethnic people through humors such as (a) education, (b) legitimacy of violence, (c) ideology, (d) the resistance of the Madurese ethnic people to the Javanese ethnic people, and (e) the Madurese people’s attitude and behavior. The stereotype on the Madurese ethnic people was created to give an inaccurate image although to some extent it was true. The ethnical humor leads to ethnical stereotype. The ethnical humor, which, in this case, was created by the dominant ethnic people, which, in this case, the Javanese ethnic people, contained satire, dislike, hatred, insulting, praise, and resistance of the Madurese ethnic people to the Javanese ethnic people.

Abstract

In Indonesia Joged Bumbung is a dance which was created in Bali; it is known as tari pergaulan, namely, a social dance which is performed to make friends; however, it has   innovated so freely that it becomes a dance with pornographic movements  presented vulgarly.   The recording of such a dance can be easily watched in YouTube; it can also be easily watched in shared video web sites, through which the users can download, watch and share different video clips free of charge. The problems of the present study are (1) what is the negative impact of the pornographic joged dance on the aesthetic values of Joged Bumbung; (2) how negatively people view the dancers and group of such a pornographic joged dance; (3) how negatively people view the Balinese cultural art resulting from the fact that such a pornographic joged dance has been uploaded in YouTube? The main objective of the present study is to identify the negative impact of the pornographic joged dance in YouTube. The data were collected through observation, interview, and library research. The collected data were then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively using the phonological theory; and the qualitative method is used. It can be concluded that the pornographic joged is still watched in different parts of the island; it is watched every night. The government, art observers, and the society’s leaders are anxious about the negative impact of such a joged dance on those who are involved in its performance. Therefore, the Bali government has persuaded the dancers and groups that are involved in the performance of such a joged dance to return to the ethical choreography of the performing art of Joged Bumbung. The government has directly met them for this purpose; however, what has been done has not been successful yet. There were three negative impacts of such a joged dance presented in YouTube. They are (1) the art value of the Joged Bumbung dance has become degraded; (2) the dancers have been immorally justified; and (3) the Balinese art and culture have been distorted.

It focused on how the commodification of telajakan took place in the era of globalization; what factors causing the commodification of telajakan to take place; and what were the impact and meaning of the commodification of telajakan at Ubud Village. The data were collected through observation, interview, library research and documentation study. The theory of Commodification, the theory of Discourse, the theory of Power and Knowledge, and the theory of Globalization were eclectically used in the present study.   The results of the study were as follows. The commodification of telajakan was defined as how it was produced as economic space, how it was distributed through printed media, announcement board, from mouth to mouth, and through the meetings held by traditional organizations, and then it was consumed by the owners and others undertaking businesses. The factors contributing to the commodification of telajakan were market ideology, business of tourism, technological flow, and mass media as the popular cultural agent, mimicry, and economic libido. For the sake of money, telajakan was not regarded as a local genius any longer; its value as traditional green open space was neglected; as a result, ecological damage could not be avoided; the aesthetics of the Balinese architecture was getting extict; and the Balinese identity was getting  destructed.
