Abstract

Dutch colonialism in Tanah Karo has long ended but not with the construction of the discourse. The unilateral evaluation of the Dutch towards the spirituality of the Karo people caused the Karo people to split into groups and live with social pathology. The colonial discourse is now experiencing challenges as the erpangir ku lau ritual was established as a national intangible cultural heritage and was made as one of the routine cultural tourism attractions in Karo District. This research uses a descriptive qualitative research method because it uses theory as a platform. The data source of this research consists of primary data obtained through observation and in-depth interviews, and secondary data obtained through books, scientific papers, documents, and online sources. The results of the study revealed that despite being rejected by one of the community groups, support for efforts to reclaim Karo's identity through the implementation of the erpangir ku lau ritual was still activated. This is because the effort to reclaim identity is expected to bring back the Karo community following the identity of the ancestral heritage, namely mehamat (polite), metami (persuading), melias (loving), perkuah (generous), and perkeleng (merciful) towards fellow humans and ancestors, The Creator, and the universe. Keywords: Reclaiming Identity, Erpangir Ku Lau, Colonial Discourse, and Karo Society

Libraries as centers of information and culture have an important role in the development of urban society. This research reviews the transformation of the Pematang Siantar Archives and Library Service from a public library to a government agency that manages archives and libraries. Historical research methods were used to research the 2017-2023 period, including heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography.

Abstract

This research discusses the role and interaction of ethnic Chinese with local communities in Pematang Siantar City, North Sumatra. Ethnic Chinese have been present since the 16th century as Dutch traders and contract workers, growing to become an integral part of the local community. Despite conflicts at some points in time, many positive examples show that cross-cultural collaboration results in benefits for both parties. The research method used is qualitative, with data collection through field observations, interviews, and documentation. The results show that ethnic Chinese have made significant contributions to the city's economy, culture and education, creating a rich cultural diversity. Cultural blending occurs through socialization, cultural acculturation, vocabulary, language, culinary, and cultural celebrations. The local government is active in facilitating culture and the promotion of inter-ethnic social harmony. This research is expected to be a source of information about the contribution of Chinese culture to the social and cultural life of local communities in Pematang Siantar City.
