Abstract

This paper was written against a background of interest to trace the formation of sociological ways of thinking that tend to legitimize power in Indonesia. During the preparation, I found problems in the perspective commonly used in researching the formation process of knowledge; knowledge is considered a form of power. Such approach is problematic because it denies subjectivity – which includes cognitive activity and experiences that are owned only by the existence of the related – absolute in the process of both producing and reproducing knowledge. Yet this criticism isn’t easy to elaborate because the question is, how do we insert subjectivity when the origins of sociological thinking that we’re talking about is an effort to continue in a non-reflective way of sociology in the U.S. in the Cold War era, who’s way of thinking MENATURALISASI the existing social order and its ideology. Finally, I placed Selo Soemardjan – a figure that became the center of this analysis because of his irreplaceable role in institutionalizing sociological ways of thinking (U.S.) in Indonesia – as a translator. Quoting Bruno Latour’s view (1987), only with exploring the process of dissemination of knowledge as an activity of translation can we find energy that has been invisible all this time in a variety of knowledge analysises. For me, this concept helps reveal subjectivity that has been buried by views that place actors as passive mediums in the forming or spreading of knowledge that is more true or beneficial in preserving structure.

Abstract

Dalam pemahaman umum, kebenaran adalah hal yang lekat dengan kemasukakalan. Asumsi ini pun mempengaruhi satu tren pemikiran dalam antropologi sebagaimana terlihat dari adanya kecenderungan di antara beberapa pengkaji untuk menyejajarkan cara kerja mitos dengan ilmu pengetahuan atau memperlakukan subjek kajian sebagai pihak yang rasional dan terobsesi memecahkan kontradiksi. Berkaca dari dua kasus yakni mitos asal-usul orang Buton di Pulau Seram dan diskursus Indonesia peradaban tua, saya ingin mengajukan bahwa pondasi kebenaran sejarah dalam konteks sosial bukanlah semata koherensi atau plausibilitasnya melainkan juga faedahnya untuk mengangkat atau mempertahankan harkat satu kolektivitas di antara kolektivitas-kolektivitas lainnya. Perbandingan saya memperlihatkan hal ini berlaku, menariknya, baik pada komunitas etnisitas maupun komunitas kebangsaan. Kebenaran sejarah mereka, artinya, akan sulit untuk benar-benar dipisahkan dari klaim politis yang disampaikan atau disampaikan ulang di tengah-tengah kontestasi para pelaku kehidupan sosial. Kerangka berpikir bermain yang dicetuskan oleh Johan Huizinga ditemukan pula sangat relevan menggambarkan situasi ini.Kata kunci: Kebenaran sejarah, mitos asal-usul, kontestasi, kemasukakalan, Buton, Indonesia peradaban tua

Abstract

In this article, I want to show the semiotic signification of violence which made its representation profoundly essential in cultural life. My argument is we cannot fully comprehend the social nature of violence provided we view it merely as an act to satisfy the desire to harm the other or to seize a contested scarce resource. As it gave off the impression of negating the others, violence, whatever its motive, tend to be interpreted as the sign of one’s commitment toward his/her group while considerably strengthening the group’ sense of identity. It is this semiotic signification of violence, I argue, which made it being reproduced prevalently in our cultural imaginations. I will be arguing this by examining cases in which the representation of violence being actively exhibited and exploited to invoke a particular sense of identity.

Abstract

This paper examines the precarious coexistence between Muslims and Christians in post- conflict Maluku, Indonesia. The lasting effects of brutal conflict have left fear and trauma as the dominant emotions in the relationships of local residents. While these emotions are commonly seen as hindrances to peace by scholars and non-scholars alike, in post-conflict societies, they are inescapable and deeply ingrained. Nevertheless, they not only drive division, but also the desire to maintain peace. In Maluku, both Christians and Muslims are bound by the shared understanding that their current peaceful coexistence is delicate, and they must be cautious in their interactions with people of different religions, despite ongoing animosity and mistrust. This ongoing reality in Maluku calls for a reassessment of the normative tendency in peace discourses, which expect peace to be either ideal or impaired and tend not to be contextual in evaluating peace. To understand post-conflict coexistence better, we need to comprehend how emotions towards other groups operate in the emerging social settings.

Abstract

Based on a personal reflection of ethnographic fieldwork, this paper presents strategies for depicting the relationship between rural communities and their landscapes. The relationship between rural communities and their environment is frequently portrayed as harmonious and non-exploitative. However, this portrayal oversimplifies the more complex socio-ecological dynamics. Ecological adaptation ethnographies, which capture the individual relationship with nature, are prone to be interpreted as exemplifications of local wisdom, justifying this reductionism. An ethnographic moment that should be highlighted is rural communities’ painful experience with their landscapes. These moments vividly demonstrate how humans are constantly confronted with uncertainty in their interactions with their environment and the ever-changing dynamics between them. My exposure to the painful experiences of local residents in their ecological relationships, which I will discuss here, compels me to turn away from frameworks that oversimplify the relationship between the two.
