Abstract

This research explains the transformation of Rumah Gadang in the Traditional Village of Nagari Sijunjung. Rumah Gadang is an embodiment of Minangkabau culture both in place and space and is one of the characteristics of an ideal sociocultural life. But over time, Rumah Gadang has changed its function to become an inn on the tourism agenda. This certainly raises the question of what is the definition of Rumah Gadang for Minangkabau people today. Through observation methods, in-depth interviews and utilizing previous writings, the phenomenon of Rumah Gadang in the Traditional Village of Nagari Sijunjung which is used as an inn and tourist destination through the concept of rural tourism is examined. The results show that Rumah Gadang is not only a place, but functions as a space in carrying out social, economic and cultural life. The transformation of Rumah Gadang to lodging causes some social and cultural functions to be limited but economic functions increase. These two sides of the coin are the intertwining that is happening in the Traditional Village of Nagari Sijunjung where culture and tourism are packaged together. In the end, economic factors through the tourism industry make the survival of Rumah Gadang for Sijunjung people.

Abstract

This paper describes the dynamics of conflict that occurred in the Batu Dinding rural tourism development between the local community and Tanjung Belit Village. The conflict occurred since 2015, and it’s was declared over in 2021. Therefore, what were the dynamics of the conflict during those six years? This research uses a qualitative-descriptive method with data collection through fieldwork. The data collection techniques used were a combination of limited participant observation techniques, informal and semi-structured interviews, and document studies. The results show that the conflict over the management of the Batu Dinding Waterfall tourism area in Tanjung Belit Village originated from agrarian conflicts related to land reoccupation. The motive is motivated by the development of tourism that has economic value and wants to monopolize it to get economic benefits (cuan). So the horizontal conflict between the Domo tribe and Tanjung Belit Village with the Tanjung tribe was resolved through legal channels and the police and the actors who committed acts of violence should also be imprisoned. In the end, the conflict was resolved through inter-tribal deliberation and the land was retained by Tanjung Belit Village.

Abstract

This article examines the intricate relationship between the expansion of oil palm plantations and the preservation of customary (adat) systems in the villages of Salareh Aia Utara and Salareh Aia Barat, Agam Regency, West Sumatra. Employing a critical ethnographic approach, the study investigates how customary land, traditionally managed by Ninik Mamak (traditional leaders), has been transferred to private companies—particularly PT AMP Plantation—through adat-based agreements and compensation mechanisms. The research highlights the emergence of internal conflicts among traditional leaders, disputes over authority and compensation, and broader tensions between indigenous communities and corporate interests. Findings reveal that the process of land transfer, while formally adhering to customary and legal procedures, often leads to contestation, fragmentation of community leadership, and persistent disputes over land rights and plasma distribution. The article highlights the intricate interplay of economic, social, and political factors that influence these dynamics, underscoring the need for companies and policymakers to acknowledge the evolving nature of customary authority and the importance of culturally sensitive engagement. Ultimately, the study contributes to a deeper understanding of how modernisation and agribusiness intersect with indigenous rights and social structures in contemporary Minangkabau society.

Abstract

Tujuan dari makalah ini adalah untuk menganalisis dan mendeskripsikan implementasi pengembangan pariwisata berkelanjutan di kawasan Geopark Silokek Ranah Minang, Kabupaten Sijunjung. Makalah ini didorong oleh potensi geosite yang beragam dan memiliki potensi geowisata yang dapat dikembangkan secara lebih baik. Namun, hal ini belum dilakukan secara optimal, karena terdapat beberapa hambatan yang menyebabkan potensi pariwisata terbatas oleh kondisi lingkungan dan sumber daya masyarakat di kawasan Geopark Silokek. Oleh karena itu, sangat penting untuk memahami sejauh mana pengembangan pariwisata berkelanjutan melalui geowisata di Geopark Silokek. Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan metode kualitatif dan pendekatan naratif. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara dengan manajemen, pengamatan objek geologi, serta FGD dengan pemangku kepentingan dan masyarakat lokal. Hasil penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa implementasi pengembangan pariwisata berkelanjutan di Silokek Geopark masih belum optimal dan dapat dikatakan gagal dalam menghadirkan geotourism yang berbasis lingkungan, budaya, dan ekonomi. Hal ini karena sektor geotourism masih merupakan hal yang baru dan asing bagi masyarakat sekitar. Banyak orang masih belum dapat beradaptasi dengan sektor geowisata, sehingga mereka tidak memiliki ekonomi kreatif sebagai nilai tawar dalam industri pariwisata. Di sisi lain, sektor lingkungan air sungai yang mengalir di Geopark Silokek keruh akibat aktivitas penambangan ilegal di hulu sungai. Selain itu, air sungai sering meluap ke bahu jalan, menyebabkan terputusnya akses. Silokek Geopark menghadapi banyak tantangan dari sektor infrastruktur dan rentan terhadap longsor. Oleh karena itu, pengembangan geotourism berkelanjutan di kawasan Silokek Geopark gagal menyediakan pariwisata yang berbasis lingkungan, sosial, dan ekonomi.

Abstract

The research explains the concept of bancah, which translates to "swamps," as a source of ecological wisdom and an integral part of Minangkabau local knowledge. In Minangkabau society, bancah has traditionally been vital to the community's social and cultural life. While many people today view bancah as unproductive, their ecological and cultural significance is deeply rooted in Minangkabau identity. The research employs an ethnoscience approach, complemented by methods such as interviews, field observations, and literature reviews, to explore local memories and knowledge about bancah in the Minangkabau community, particularly in the Kuranji and Nanggalo districts of Padang. The analysis focuses on how the community understands bancah and its meanings to ecology and culture. The findings show that bancah traditionally teaches respect for nature and acts as an informal educational resource that promotes sustainable practices. However, changes in land use and modern economic needs have led younger people to view bancah mainly as a source of income, overlooking its ecological and cultural importance. This shift poses a threat to the preservation of traditional knowledge and disrupts the ecological connections that are vital to Minangkabau cultural identity. The transformation of bancah reflects a larger shift in collective memory and cultural values, indicating the weakening bond between the Minangkabau community and its wetland heritage due to urban development. Preserving bancah as an ecological and cultural resource is crucial for maintaining local food security (sago), ensuring environmental stability, and preserving the connection of the Minangkabau people with their cultural heritage.
