Abstract

Theoretical shifts in anthropological studies in recent decades has given way to renewed recognition of looking at issues of identity, namely that the sociall life, the arena in which the identity plays in, must be fundamentally understood as negotiating meanings. This is where Clifford Geertz’s interpretative approach becomes important yet problematic. Important because Geertz offers a humanistic approach which examines how meanings and symbols become important in the view of the community itself. Therefore, he argues, cultural interpretation requires a more in-depth analysis, also more intelligent and complex in which its purposes and those complexed cultural forms that can not simply be reduced to the effects on the social engines and organisms as claimed by structuralist and functionalist scholars before him. At the same time, it is also problematic because of Geertz’s position that searches for meaning makes him seem neglective or underestimative of the process of how interaction – the arena of where meanings work – is produced. In this case, Geertz’s critics have “helped” by reminding him of what is power relations and agency. Refering to the conception of Sherry Ortner, the author argues that through the agency there is a way to see this debate from the mid. The side which is not for eliminating the significant influence of Geertz is also not to ignore the significance of the critics’ arguments, but to bridge the two (meaning and power relations). Efforts in connecting this theory through the concept of agency consequently will include the significance of one party, at the same time improve its insignificance through the criticism of others and vice versa.

Abstract

This writing is to parse the context of history from Antonio Gramsci’s thoughts regarding the concept of hegemony and positioning that approach in the realm of anthropological studies. The author wants to position Gramsci’s argument by outlining the opinions of the theory’s interpreters and explaining social and political context from the influences of Marxism and communism on Gramsci’s thinking. The fundamental concept of Gramschi’s thinking according to the auhor has influenced how post-1970s anthropology conceptualizes ideology, consent and hegemony as key issues that make the concept of culture become more operational in discussing matters of power. Keywords: Hegemony, Ideology, Historicity, Anthropology

Abstract

It is quite often, wittingly or unwittingly, that people assume society, even the state, as person. They talk about society in a way as if it shares same attributes with human being: can be sick (as if it has body), can think (as if it has mind), can speak (as if it has mouth), for example. It is quite obvious that this gesture implies a view of society as an agglomeration of individuals. The problem arises around the legitimacy of this gesture: namely, to analogize the society as individuals always implies a logical leap. Things even get murkier when this gesture is applied even more to the way in which people recognize the state: as collectivities, as a “big-person.” This gesture, which has methodological impact, is what the author call ‘anthropomorphism analogy’. By doing what the author call psychogenealogy—a mixture of Lacanian psychoanalysis and Foucauldian genealogy, that is a way at seeing history as constituted by various contestation of materialization of desire—to the history of the modern state, namely, modern sovereign state, the author seeks to remedy this analogy with an objective account. The purpose is not to side with the analogy, but to prove that it is invalid not because it is scientifically inadequate, but that it is a true correspondence: state is person. Keywords: Anthropomorphism analogy, state, sovereignty, psychogenealogy, desire, anxiety

Abstract

Death can be understood merely as a transition from one life to the next or simply as an end of life. These two conceptions are established due to our lack in knowledge about what will happen to us after we die. In order to make any sense, both conceptions require an understanding of death (and also life) as individual matter, that the only death (and life) I experienced is always my own. Nevertheless, in the first conception death does not exterminate one’s self, while in the second conception death exterminate one’s self. However, nonexistence of any access to the first-person death experiences causes our understanding about death is always constructed from third-person point of view—in this case, live person’s point of view. As the result, we see that death also brings ontological transformation regarding to one’s corporeal body and identity. As endeavors to undertand what death is, there are tendencies to bring these conceptualizations of death to such philosophical universalism or anthropological particularism. This paper suggests that explanations about death must explain this event without strictly take one of these tendencies. Keywords: death, death as transition, death as denouement, transformation of corporeal body, transformation of personal identity

Abstract

This paper was written against a background of interest to trace the formation of sociological ways of thinking that tend to legitimize power in Indonesia. During the preparation, I found problems in the perspective commonly used in researching the formation process of knowledge; knowledge is considered a form of power. Such approach is problematic because it denies subjectivity – which includes cognitive activity and experiences that are owned only by the existence of the related – absolute in the process of both producing and reproducing knowledge. Yet this criticism isn’t easy to elaborate because the question is, how do we insert subjectivity when the origins of sociological thinking that we’re talking about is an effort to continue in a non-reflective way of sociology in the U.S. in the Cold War era, who’s way of thinking MENATURALISASI the existing social order and its ideology. Finally, I placed Selo Soemardjan – a figure that became the center of this analysis because of his irreplaceable role in institutionalizing sociological ways of thinking (U.S.) in Indonesia – as a translator. Quoting Bruno Latour’s view (1987), only with exploring the process of dissemination of knowledge as an activity of translation can we find energy that has been invisible all this time in a variety of knowledge analysises. For me, this concept helps reveal subjectivity that has been buried by views that place actors as passive mediums in the forming or spreading of knowledge that is more true or beneficial in preserving structure.

Abstract

Ethnographic research is very close to case studies. Throughout its development, views and ways of doing ethnography experienced change. At first ethnography was merely describing ethnic groups as a case study which is done by making a detailed and objective description. In more recent time it became a description on a community which holds within it records of the researcher’s subjective experiences while searching for data in the field. There is a realization that cases that are presented through ethnography is by the researcher’s choice whether intentionally or not, even through compromise with an informant. The ethnography’s representational issues became stronger. Besides the realization of representation and authority in describing a community, discussions on modern-day ethnography is also filled with chosen cases that are more personal. Some experts offer the possibility of autoethnography as a choice in writing an ethnography. For the advocates, ethnography is able to bring up cases that have not been exposed by researchers from beyond the analyzed community. Autoethnography has become a way of articulating descriptions of the marginalized community. In the context of Indonesia, I see that autoethnography can be used as an offer towards the birth of claims of Indonesian anthropology. Keywords: autoethnography, case, representation, method

Abstract

This paper is based on the reflections of the life experiences of a woman that grew up within the cultures of the Pesantren. At first, this paper was merely for academic purposes that demanded reflective research. Most of the data was collected in a reasonably short amount of time in the last two months of 2010 by relying on life experience memories and enforced by data from results of observations, interviews and personal documents. This research tries to give an overview and becomes a small part of an effort to understanding how a human woman brought up within the cultures of the Pesantren interprets herself as a woman. A woman who deals with various feelings, thoughts, questions, concerns and expectations in between habits and habituations embedded in the existing culture. Although admittedly, this paper does not intend to give a generalization of the Pesantren culture, especially on the ways of how one “grows into a woman” and the social consequences of the female self. Keywords: pesantren, ning, woman, culture

Abstract

This paper is an autoethnographic exploration which would like to show that culture is always in the process of constructing those that are present in various track events. Through the exposure of various stages of life and moments of encounters with Others, the author wants to confirm his argument on how culture is an arena of discourses that is continually constructed, in which also involves power relations between Self and Others. Using Abu Lughod’s approach and several contributions from philosophical thinking, the author would like to state that the theoretical journey and life trajectory is a continuity which shows the fundamental argument, that culture is an arena of contestation that is based on power relations between the self and the Other. Keywords: construction, culture, Self, Other, discourse, contestation

Abstract

This paper reviews various social issues in the trajectory of the author’s life to connect the concept of the view of life and theoretic issues on culture. Through methodological reflections, the author presents various issues which are being constantly discussed in the public mass media about religion, cultural icons as well as daily practices which become entry points to see cultural diversity as well as changes that can be found in the trajectory of life. The author argues that the individual is active in formulating the culture even though it cannot be denied that it can only be articulated through culture as a network of meanings as agreed by the aggregate of individuals or groups. Keywords: social problems, cultural make up, culture, view of life

Abstract

This paper explained the issue of inequality which appears in the process of democratization through the analysis of contestation, negotiation, and the reconstruction of Riau’s identity. Ideally, democratic principles respect equality; however, identity expresses inequality because it defines who is dominant and subordinate in a certain social group through ethnic category and gender identity. It separates the insiders and outsiders with different rights through cultural idioms. Moreover, the identity is not merely applied in the private domain, but also in the public sphere. This paper resulted from research conducted in Riau Province in a periode of decentralization process. The findings shown that In daily practice the collective sentiments manifested in the notion of “Putra Daerah” may create problems, as this notion is not only used as a social category to define collective boundaries, but also as a strategic tool to control access to political and economic power in Riau. Quoting Worsley, Cultural traits are not absolute or simply intellectual categories, but are invoked to provide identities which legitimize claims to rights. They are strategies or weapons in competitions over scarce social goods Worsley (1994). Keyword: contestation, reconstruction of identity, woman perspective, decentralization
