Abstract

ABSTRACT: What distinguishes the Old Mongols is their devotion to and love of Nature, the far-reaching scope of their spiritual awareness, unending mental curiosity and nearly limitless endurance, and quest for excellence in every endeavor. Since Genghis Khan is the founder of the Mongol nation, we use his name as a starting point, and see where we get if we try to compare the qualities of water with those of the Genghis-Khanite Mongols. Afterwards, we shall look more closely on their thoughts and beliefs. Hence, the Mongolian taboos, rules of restrictions, and unwritten law are traditions inherited not only from our ancestors, but also from the teachings of Genghis Khan, contained in the Code of Law of Great Mongolia called "Ikh Zasag", home to customs and traditions of the Mongolian tribes and nationalities. In the present paper, the author aims to clarify what code of conducts and principals did Mongols adhere themselves to and how they reacted in the face of new religions. We will shed light on Mongols unique respect to other religions and schools. Peerless freedom of religions prevailing in Mongol Empire will surprisingly shock those readers who had always visualized a savage and bloodthirsty picture of Mongols in their minds. The author will also survey their conversion to different religions and how these new systems affected their outlooks. Spiritual path of Mongols is the subject with which the reader will immediately acquaint himself. He/she will also shed light on the significance of symbolism in old Mongolia and their philosophical perspectives.  KEY WORDS: Old Mongols, Genghis Khan, code of law, devotion to and love of nature, spiritual path of Mongols, and philosophical perspectives.   About the Author: Dr. Ali Zamani Alavijeh is a Lecturer at the Department of Literature and Humanities PNU (Payame Noor University), PO Box 19395-3697, Tehran, Iran.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: “Keroncong” music, as a treasure of Indonesian national music, has been experiencing a long phase since the arrival of the Moorish as Portuguese slaves to Indonesia in the 16th century. In the long period, the “keroncong” music then, as other kinds of traditional music, has to face industry music, especially Western music. The power of financial capital, the superiority of technology, and the sophistication of marketing ground down traditional music. This paper tries to analyze the “keroncong” music in Indonesia that can still be maintained or popularized through various ways and by making a proper media of promotion such as through television and radio so that society are familiar to “keroncong” music. Therefore, “keroncong” artists should make innovations or changes that can attract people’s interest to “keroncong” music. They should create song lyrics that reflec the life of society or take themes that is in accordance to their period. Although there are many new “keroncong” compositions, but the new “keroncong” songs are rarely published in media. The emergence of “campursari” in the 1990s, pioneered by Manthous, brought a power of interest and became a magnet for fans and activists of “keroncong” and traditional music so that they appreciate the music and many groups of “campursari” music which is rooted from “keroncong” grew. The same effort was done by Didi Kempot and Koko Thole who has given new colour to “keroncong” music. They made efforts to spread “keroncong” music to a wide range of society and also develop the music itself.      KEY WORDS: “Keroncong” music, time of revolution, Indonesian society, “campursari” music, and innovations in traditional music.   About the Authors: Linda Sunarti, M.Hum. and Wiwin Triwinarti, M.A. are Lecturers at the Department of History, Faculty of Humanities UI (University of Indonesia), UI Campus Depok, West Java, Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: We have had so far about Bengal history are from different sources that have defined the Bengal history from different angles, but no attempts have so far been made to treat the history of Bengal in the light of some specific medieval sources dealing with politics, administration, society, and economics of Bengal. In this respect, “Tabaqat-i-Nasiri” of Minhaj Uddin us Siraj is of immense importance to know about the history of this region. Incidentally, “Tabaqat-i-Nasiri” of Minhaj Uddin us Siraj also highlights a few points relating to the contemporary history of North Bengal (Varendri). Accordingly, Minhaj Uddin us Siraj has given an eyewitness account of the conquests of Ikhtiar-uddin Muhammad Bakhtyar Khalji in Bengal. In fact, the entire chapter in Bengal had centered on the military exploits of Bakhtyar Khalji. But what has been significant about his approach the thirteenth century Bengal history was kinness with which Minhaj Uddin us Siraj observed the contemporary social milieu. Besides giving the graphic description of every military encounter of Bakhtyar Khalji, Minhaj Uddin us Siraj always focused with curiosity on the social formation in Bengal. Minhaj Uddin us Siraj appeared to be particularly interested in describing military strategies. If one goes along the line of narration given by Minhaj Uddin us Siraj, it appears that Bakhtyar Khalji had used both military powers and strategic deception to conquer Nadia. Since Minhaj Uddin us Siraj stopped his narrative about Bengal with the incident of Bakhtiar Khalji’s assassination, he did not mention any thing about the administration in Bengal. It is presumable that Bakhtiar Khalji did not get any time to organize his administration.KEY WORDS: Bengal history, Minhaj Uddin us Siraj, chronicle of “Tabaqat-i-Nasiri”, empire dynasties in India, eyewitness account, and contemporary social milieu.About the Author: Dr. Anil Kumar Sarkar is an Assistant Professor at the Department of History ABN (Acharya Brojendra Nath) Seal College, Cooch Behar, West Bengal, India.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Authenticity nowadays becomes a central issue concerning on identity and transformation. In the Islamic world and particularly in Indonesia, the phase of authenticity has become synonymous to the phase of revival, fanatism, and fundamentalism, following the previous phase of syncretism, secularism, and developmentalism. Within the context of Indonesian art and culture, authenticiy may cause interference in the spirit of preserving traditional values, including the roles, functions, and meanings traditional ornaments in contemporary mosques in West Java. To comprehend such interference, a synchronic historical analysis is conducted, supported by direct visual analysis towards physical evidence (artifacts) based on typology and aesthetic morphology approachs. This study aims at analyzing and finding the manifestation and impact of Islamic authentication towards the roles and functions of traditional ornaments in mosque architecture. Field analysis shows that the trends of forms, styles, roles, and functions of mosque ornaments have experienced a shift. The heterogenous traditional ornaments are getting ousted in favor of homogenous Arabesque ornaments. Mosque ornaments in West Java tend to adopt, copy, or imitate authentic Islamic identities oriented towards retrospective and enculturing images, in line with the spirit of Islamic revival whose foundation is a retrospective movement towards the Al-Qur’an, Al-Hadith, and the past glory of the classical Islam eras. KEY WORDS: Islamic authentication, ornaments, revivalism, typology and aesthetic approachs, city and regency, and great mosques in West Java.   About the Authors: Achmad Haldani Destiarmand, M.Sn. is a Doctoral Candidate and Lecturer at the Faculty of Art and Design ITB (Bandung Institute of Technology), Jalan Ganesha No.10, Tamansari, Bandung, West Java, Indonesia; and Dr. Imam Santosa is a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Art and Design ITB.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: The “wayang kulit” (shadow play) is a traditional art of theatre that popular in Java and Bali, and considered as a multidimensional state of art which consists dimension of theatrical, literature, philosophy, moral education, and not to mention visual arts and crafts dimension as well, in which is the main discussion of this paper. There are several styles of Javanese “wayang kulit” based on their geographical area. Among those, Cirebon style possesses unique visualization which has resemblance to early phase of Islamic era “wayang” puppet. One of the character transformations done which includes personality and visual descriptions happened to the Priest Drona, the vital character of Mahabharata that role as “guru” (teacher) to both Pandawas and Kurawas, who was trapped inside dilemma between his warring disciples. In the adaptation version of Javanese shadow play, for some various and speculative reasons, Drona has been altered into an antagonistic character, and reached its extreme point of alteration as an absolute evil character in Cirebon version. Cirebon’s history, culture, and plural society gave significant influence on this. Drona puppets themselves have unique and specific visual attributes in comparison to other main characters puppets, and possess highly symbolic meaning beneath them. These facts told us that the character has a great significance. Later, these negative connotations of Drona was being sharpened and escalated in accordance of socio-historical events and local phenomenon, thus producing visual differentiation within the Drona puppets.KEY WORDS: “Wayang kulit”, Drona character, Cirebon area, visual, differentiations, attributes, socio-historical events, and symbolic meaning.    About the Authors: Moh Isa Pramana Koesoemadinata, M.Sn. is a Student of Doctoral Program at the Faculty of Visual Arts and Design ITB (Bandung Institute of Technology), Jalan Ganesha No.10, Tamansari, Bandung, West Java, Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Indonesia as one of the countries in the world which has a vast sea or territorial waters wider than the mainland. Therefore, the marine potentials should be resources that contribute to national development. In fact, the national development carried out more oriented to the creation of economic growth centers in the major cities and ignores to develop the coastal communities. This is the starting point of problem in the history of Indonesia development, so that coastal communities, including the coastal communities of Makassar city, experiencing lag. Beside unfavorable orientation in national development, the socio-cultural factors of coastal communities also creates stagnant from generation to generation. Since the New Order regime (1966-1998), through the development program of coastal community has been implemented, the overall performance of the development of coastal and marine community has not shown any innovation or completion of deficiencies for coastal communities. Orientation of development from central to regional area (top down) shows that how development the coastal communities is not seen as a sector that could increase foreign exchange. Therefore, the data on potential sources of marine coastal communities, in the economic perspective, can be a mainstay for a large source of revenue. Finally, backwardness of Makassar coastal communities need reorientation and integrated development policies from the government and non-governmental organizations so that the history of development coastal communities are not repeated and it will consequently fail.KEY WORDS: Economic development, backwardness, coastal communities, Makassar city, attitude and mentality, community empowerment, and welfare and social justice.About the Author: Abdul Wahab, M.Si. is a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Education and Teacher Training UVRI (Veteran University of the Republic of Indonesia), Campus II UVRI Makassar, Jalan Baruga Raya, Antang, Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia; and Doctoral Student at the Postgraduate Program UNM (State University of Makassar).

Only true federalism and decentralization is a way forward to create balance and accommodation among different identities in Nigerian society. Nigeria needs good institution which could be successful in maintaining good governance. Therefore, dysfunctional political system reform and restructuring for maintaining social justice with all without any discrimination. A true federalism and true democracy can be used as a real panacea of ethnic conflict. In summation, it can be said that shaping and sharing of powers could be also better option for creating a peaceful and prosperous in Nigeria.KEY WORDS: Ethnic conflict, federalism, true democracy, decentralization, national integration, and peaceful and prosperous in Nigeria.  About the Authors: Dr. Hilal Ahmad Wani is a Research Fellow at the Centre for Civilizational Dialogue UM (University of Malaya), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and Andi Suwirta, M.Hum. is a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Social Studies Education UPI (Indonesia University of Education) in Bandung, Indonesia.
