Abstract

Kajian mengenai konstruksi pengetahuan dan realitas dalam peradaban Jawa Klasik, khususnya di Majapahit, masih tergolong terbatas dibandingkan diskursus mengenai aspek sosial, politik, dan keagamaan. Penelitian ini menganalisis konstruksi pengetahuan di Majapahit melalui Nāgarakṛtāgama dan peran Dharmadyakṣa. Dengan pendekatan hermeneutika Ricoeur dan teori konstruksi sosial Berger & Luckmann, ditemukan bahwa pengetahuan Majapahit merupakan sintesis unik antara metafisik-religius (dharma) dan rasionalitas administratif. Dharmadyakṣa menjadi poros yang menyatukan otoritas spiritual dan politik, mengontrol transmisi pengetahuan melalui teks (prasasti, kakawin), lisan (wayang), dan institusi (biara, istana). Sistem hierarkis catur varna membatasi akses pengetahuan pada elite, sementara ritual dan hukum memperkuat legitimasi kekuasaan. Berbeda dengan Skolastik Eropa yang memisahkan iman-akal, Majapahit mengintegrasikannya dalam kerangka devarāja (raja sebagai titisan dewa). Pengetahuan berfungsi sebagai instrumen politik untuk menjaga stabilitas sosial. Temuan ini menegaskan keunikan epistemologi Majapahit: sintesis spiritualitas Jawa Kuno dan pragmatisme kekuasaan, tanpa dikotomi Barat.

Abstract

Architecture continuously evolves alongside humanity, with postmodernism representing a critical phase that introduces complex challenges. Central to this discussion is the notion of schizophrenic culture—a concept borrowed from Fredric Jameson, which describes a cultural condition marked by fragmentation, depthlessness, and the collapse of coherent meaning, often found in postmodern societies. This research aims to critique postmodernism in the context of increasing commercialization and its impact on architectural practice. By employing a qualitative-reflective methodology, data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using NVivo software, complemented by formal logic. The study highlights significant projects, such as The Line in Saudi Arabia, which illustrate the tension between commercial growth and the preservation of cultural identity. Findings reveal that while commercialization can drive innovation, it also poses a risk of homogenizing architectural designs, undermining the diverse cultural expressions that postmodernism seeks to champion. Ultimately, this research advocates for a re-evaluation of how economic objectives can coexist with the foundational principles of postmodernism, providing critical insights and recommendations for future studies to navigate the challenges posed by commercialization within the architectural field.

Abstract

Societies continuously move toward what is perceived as a “better” condition. From myth to reason, from geocentrism to heliocentrism, and from colonization to revolution, these shifts mark fundamental changes in how societies construct knowledge and meaning. This study examines the influence of postmodernism and commercialization on vernacular architecture in Indonesia, with a specific focus on the transformation of spatial hierarchy within traditional houses. Using a qualitative and interpretative approach, the research analyzes how postmodern architectural ideals, such as plurality, symbolism, and contextual expression interact with market-driven pressures in shaping contemporary adaptations of vernacular forms. The study focuses on Indonesian traditional houses, particularly Joglo and Batak Toba dwellings, while selected postmodern architectural works are employed as a theoretical framework rather than primary objects of analysis. The findings indicate that commercialization not only affects architectural form and materiality but also reconfigures spatial hierarchy, altering traditional distinctions between sacred and profane, public and private, and central and peripheral spaces. This study argues that understanding changes in spatial hierarchy is crucial for critically assessing the impact of postmodernism and commercialization on vernacular architecture, and for addressing the challenges of preserving cultural meaning within evolving urban and socio-economic contexts.
