Abstract

Lampung black pepper has been a strategic commodity linking Sumatra's hinterland to global trade networks from the Srivijaya era to the Japanese occupation. This study aims to trace the political economy dynamics of pepper trade in Lampung and to uncover forms of local resistance emerging in response to monopolistic and colonial exploitation systems. A descriptive qualitative method with a historical case study approach was employed, utilizing socio-economic history and colonial resistance theory. Data were collected through literature review of primary sources such as the Bojong Charter (1691), Sukau Charter (1695), VOC reports, Dutch colonial archives, and relevant secondary sources. The findings reveal that control over Lampung black pepper by the Banten Sultanate, VOC, and Dutch East Indies systematically shaped an unequal social structure through policies of verplichte leverantie and contingentenstelsel. This economic pressure triggered a layered spectrum of resistance, ranging from armed rebellions led by Radin Inten I-II and Radin Imba Kesuma, spiritual movements of Syattariyah and Naqsyabandiyah orders, to everyday resistance such as smuggling and sabotage. The study concludes that pepper not only served as an instrument of external domination but also acted as a catalyst for the formation of socio-political consciousness and resistance identity among Lampung communities.

Abstract

This study evaluates the socio-ecological consequences of the Argoguruh Dam irrigation system from the Dutch colonial era (1935–1942) through the New Order period (1993). Using an environmental history approach informed by Richard Grove’s Green Imperialism and path-dependency perspectives, the study examines the historical background of the project, its social and environmental impacts, and the long-term continuity of those impacts. A qualitative, library-based method was employed using colonial newspapers, government reports, and local newspapers such as Berita Yudha and Harian Ekonomi Neraca. The findings show that the Argoguruh Dam significantly increased rice production and accelerated the expansion of transmigrant settlements in Trimurjo–Metro. At the same time, the project contributed to large-scale deforestation, watershed sedimentation, and the marginalization of indigenous Lampungese communities. These socio-ecological transformations persisted into the New Order era through irrigation rehabilitation projects, transmigration expansion, and mega-agrarian development schemes.
