Abstract

This study examines the linguistic landscape (LL) of several museums in Bali, with a particular focus on language contestation, underlying linguistic ideologies, and visitor perceptions. It explores how written information is presented, the languages prioritized, and how these linguistic choices reflect identity construction and social functions within museum spaces. The research employs a qualitative design, incorporating photographic documentation, direct observation, and visitor interviews conducted across multiple museums. The findings indicate that multilingual signage is a defining feature of these museums, most commonly combining Indonesian with English or other foreign languages such as Japanese, German, and Dutch. Balinese script is also present, though often used to convey information in Indonesian rather than in the Balinese language. The instrumental function of LL is reflected in the strategic use of foreign languages to accommodate international visitors, while its symbolic or indexical function emerges in the use of Indonesian and Balinese script as markers of national and local identity. Visitor feedback suggests that while much of the written information is clear and useful, issues remain regarding font size, aesthetics, and accessibility. Overall, the study highlights how LL in Bali’s museums embodies both communication practices and broader cultural, ideological, and institutional dynamics.

Abstract

Canggu is one of the areas that has experienced rapid development in the tourism sector. Canggu Village has become a leading tourist destination in Badung Regency, alongside Kuta and Nusa Dua. The development of tourism in Canggu Village has shown significant changes that affect socio-cultural conditions as well as the environment. This study aims to identify the positive and negative impacts of tourism development on the socio-cultural conditions of the local community and on environmental conditions in Canggu Village. This research employs a quantitative approach with descriptive analysis. The sampling technique used was proportional sampling and purposive sampling, involving 100 respondents. Data were collected through a survey using questionnaires, supported by interviews to strengthen the data, as well as documentation. The results indicate that the most significant positive socio-cultural impact perceived by the community is the emergence of a sense of pride in local products and cultural arts that are appreciated by tourists. Meanwhile, the most significant positive environmental impact is the implementation of waste management activities resulting from tourism development in Canggu Village. On the other hand, the community also perceives negative impacts, including the modification of local arts to attract increasing tourist visits, as well as environmental impacts, particularly traffic congestion.
