Abstract

Mendiskusikan perihal entitas kebudayaan bangsa kita di saat ini, dalam kaitannya dengan wacana kebudayaan global, kiranya salah satu critical point yang mendasar adalah pada segmentasi substansi kualitas keberdayaan dan keadilan dialektikanya dengan kebudayaan asing (Barat), yang selama ini begitu dirasakan timpang. Dalam arti, ketika arus utama (mainstream) dari pilihan arah orientasi pengembangan kebudayaan nasional, akhirnya jatuh pada komitmen untuk membuka diri, dengan mengadakan sharing seluas-luasnya dengan pluralitas budaya global, sebagaimana dipelopori oleh Sutan Takdir Alisyahbana pada dekade 30- an, dalam sejarah pemikiran dan polemik kebudayaan yang panjang di masa lalu, ternyata telah begitu jauh bersinggungan dengan sisi sensitif nasionalisme dan kejatidirian kebudayaan nasional. Konklusi harapan besar dari komitmen terbukanya kita dengan peradaban dunia, demi kemungkinan kebudayaan kita mampu meng-"ada" secara bersama (being together) dalam format equal plurality yang sebenarbenarnya di antara semua bangsa, agar tercapai derajat kemanusiaan dan peradaban universal, ternyata tidak dapat termanifestasikan secara komprehensif. Betapa kita menyaksikan secara konkrit, bahwasanya selama ini telah terjadi paradigma ketidakadilan besar dalam dialektika kebudayaan yang dialami oleh bangsa kita dan juga bangsa-bangsa Timur lainnya dengan kebudayaan Barat, dalam semua sistem menimbulkan keprihatinan di mana-mana. Dalam hal ini, kaukus problematikanya di antaranya lebih disebabkan: pertama, sikap kita dalam memaknai eksistensi kebudayaan diri yang perlu direvitalisasi; dan kedua, sikap Barat yang telah demikian memaksakan dan melegitimasi posisi dirinya sebagai ordinat hegemoni bagi semesta kebudayaan dunia, yang dalam hal ini maknanya secara substansial, sebenarnya adalah tetap sebagai potret dari riwayat penjajahan baru, di era pos kolonial. Dalam kaitannya dengan dua hal tersebut, makalah ini mencoba mengambil posisi.

Abstract

This study is aimed at describing postcolonial aesthetic hegemony in the advertisements of contemporary Indonesian printed mass media, focusing on three main issues: 1) their signifiers and signified representations; 2) various factors underlying the strength of postcolonial aesthetics; and 3) strategies of cultural resistance policy to build possible counter-postcolonial aesthetics awareness. The main approach of this study is postcolonial, supported by other relevant approaches such as semiotics and history. The main instrument of this study is the researchers themselves as the human instruments. The research data are in the forms of advertisements from printed media, namely: Tempo, Femina, and Kartini in the period of 2007-2009. The data are analyzed by using descriptive qualitative techniques. The results of this study show that I) there are three dominant signifier hegemony representations of Western aesthetics in the print media advertising in contemporary Indonesia, associated with obsessions of a) Western physical appearance or Indo; b)Western whiteness; and c) the use of English; 2) these phenomena are the results of the existence of Indonesians' strong construction of colonialism syndrome; 3) one of the strategies to build possible counter-postcolonial aesthetics is by improving awareness on local cultures as the foundation to build national culture and identity

Abstract

This article examines the role of traditional Khakot dance in Lampung as a discourse of political technology that influences the body to make individuals obedient to the values and social cultural norms of Lampung. This research focused on three issues. First, the form of representation of the body that complies with the social values and norms of Lampung culture in Khakot dance. Second, the process of forming a body that abides by the social values and norms of Lampung culture in Khakot dance. Third, identifying factors that influence individual compliance with sociocultural values and norms in the context of Khakot dance. This study used a critical discourse analysis paradigm and utilized primary and secondary data. Analysis of all obtained data was carried out textually and contextually using Michel Foucault's body discipline theory which is presented in a qualitative descriptive form. The results showed that the representation of the body that obeys the social values and norms of Lampung culture is reflected in aspects of Khakot dance performances, including the selection of costume forms and choreographic forms such as movement and floor pattern composition. The process of forming the body to be obedient to the social values and norms of Lampung culture in the context of Khakot dance involves formal and non-formal education, as well as through sociocultural activities in Lampung society. Factors that influence individual compliance are social control, normalization, and panopticon.
