<![CDATA[This article is an anthropological and historical reflections about the concept of nationalism which takes place on the dialectical interpretation on local and national identities in Maluku context. The main idea is on the effort to discover historical nexus about nationalism interpretatively that often disappear behind the grand narrative discourses about separatism of RMS (Republic of South Maluku) revolt whenever discussing the place of Maluku on Indonesian political map.
