Abstract

This ethnobotanical study aims to document the local knowledge of the Dayak Kendawangan Siakaran community in Randai Village, Ketapang Regency, West Kalimantan, regarding the use of wild plants as alternative sources of food and medicine. This qualitative research used participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and questionnaires free listing against 23 informants. This study recorded 110 wild plant species from 44 families that are used as alternative food and medicine. The most widely used plant part is the fruit (46%). Most wild plants originate from native geographic states (native) Borneo (51%), followed by introductions (exotic) (45%), and endemic (4%). The primary habitat of these plants is predominantly forests and the surrounding village areas (fields, swamps, riverbanks), indicating intensive community interaction with the surrounding ecosystem. However, today the local biodiversity and culture of the community face serious threats from deforestation and land conversion. In response, the community carries out conservation practices based on local wisdom, such as transplanting wild plants in the yard.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the presence on the background of the creation of the Kele Dance, its existence within the Ciamis Regency community, and the factors that support and hinder its sustainability, drawing on perspectives from dance anthropology and urban anthropology. This study employed a qualitative design using a descriptive analytical method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation and a review of relevant literature. The participants included a choreographer, a dancer, and a community activist, selected to data source triangulation. The findings indicate that the Kele Dance was created in 2006 by Raden Rachmajati Nilakoesoemah (Neng Peking). The Kele Dance was inspired by traditional activities of the Ciamis community in the past, particularly the practice of collecting water from natural springs using kele (bamboo containers). The existence of the Kele Dance continues to be maintained, as indicated by its relatively consistent performance frequency. Factors supporting the sustainability of the Kele Dance include the active contributions of the choreographer, the regeneration of dancers within local studios (sanggar), the participation of younger generations, and the flexibility of its performance contexts. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include limited government support, insufficient dissemination to the wider community, and restricted distribution of learning resources.

Abstract

Distribution dynamics constitute a crucial yet often overlooked dimension of agrarian systems. State-driven regimes of agrarian inclusion generally assume that farmers’ welfare can be achieved through the expansion of legal access to land, while distribution is treated as a technical domain governed by market mechanisms. This article conceptualizes distribution as a competitive social arena in which actors contest positions, capital, and strategies under conditions of structural uncertainty. Based on qualitative research in Batur Village, Banjarnegara Regency, drawing on in-depth interviews, literature review, and observation the study shows that intermediary traders in the potato trade occupy an ambivalent and vulnerable position. While frequently stigmatized as dominant actors within the distribution chain, they simultaneously face market pressures, price volatility, and limited institutional protection. Intermediary traders develop entrepreneurship as a survival strategy embedded in the distribution arena. Read as a social practice, entrepreneurship emerges not as evidence of successful inclusion, but as an effect of the absence of state institutional protection. It functions as a mechanism through which distributional risks are systematically transferred to local actors. These findings underscore that the distribution arena constitutes a primary site where formal inclusion intersects with subtle forms of exclusion in contemporary agrarian struggles.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of cultural values within seaweed farming communities in Laikang Village, Mangarabombang District, Takalar Regency, as reflected in the traditional practice of Ma’ Bettang. In line with the theme From Tradition to Global Trade: Cultural Value Transformation in Seaweed Farming Communities of Laikang Village, Takalar this research explores how a local cultural tradition that once functioned as a symbolic and spiritual marker within the community is increasingly shaped by the dynamics of global trade and market expansion. Traditionally, Ma’ Bettang served not only as a ritual marker signaling the beginning of seaweed cultivation but also as a collective cultural symbol representing the spiritual, ecological, and social relationships between coastal communities and the sea. Using an ethnographic approach and drawing on Clifford Geertz’s theory of symbolic interpretation alongside Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann’s theory of the social construction of identity, this study investigates the meanings embedded in the tradition, the cultural values transmitted through it, and the processes of transformation that occur as global economic forces penetrate local livelihoods. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with community members involved in seaweed farming, and field documentation conducted during four days of field research. This transformation reflects a broader process in which local traditions are negotiated, adapted, and sometimes commodified under the influence of globalization. This study argues that the transformation from tradition to global trade does not necessarily eliminate cultural practices but rather reshapes their meanings within new socio-economic contexts. This ethnographic research contributes to discussions on maritime cultural studies, the anthropology of globalization, and the cultural transformation of coastal communities engaged in seaweed farming

Abstract

Communication patterns and work culture are important elements in organizations because they influence how individuals interact, coordinate work, and interpret power relations and work values. This study aims to analyze communication patterns and work culture across professions in Indonesia using Hofstede's six dimensions of culture as a framework for analysis at the professional level. Unlike previous studies, which were generally comparative between countries, this study positions Hofstede's theory in the context of a single national culture to examine cultural differences in work culture between professions.This study uses a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with four informants representing the professions of teacher, journalist, banker, and government employee. The data were analyzed through thematic categorization based on Hofstede's six cultural dimensions, namely power distance, individualism-collectivism, masculinity-femininity, uncertainty avoidance, long-term orientation, and indulgence-restraint. The results show that the four professions have relatively homogeneous cultural tendencies in the dimensions of collectivism, femininity, and long-term orientation, reflecting the strong influence of Indonesian national culture. The novelty of this research lies in the contextual reading of Hofstede's theory at the professional level, which shows that professional and institutional culture plays an important mediating role in organizational communication and work practices.

Abstract

Technology in anthropological inquiry is not understood merely as an instrumental device, but rather as embodied materiality relations, movements, and meanings sedimented within an object. Drawing on Martin Heidegger’s notion of technology as enframing, this article explores the tempayan in the culture of the Hulu Sembakung community as a form of embodied technology enacted through ritual practices and social life. The tempayan emerges as a hybrid cultural materiality, the product of a historical synthesis between Chinese porcelain ceramics and local systems of meaning reproduced through ritual. Through the process of enframing, the tempayan is positioned as a ritual technology detached from the logic of its material origins, in contrast to the way porcelain is understood within Chinese culture. The Hulu Sembakung community engages in a process of revealing the tempayan through cultural rites that reinforce social cohesion, including within the context of cross-border relations. By employing a materiality-based approach across space and time, this article demonstrates how the mobility of the tempayan records historical networks and human movements that often diverge from the state’s territorial logic. Such mobility of cultural materiality generates friction with state materiality—that is, the state’s attempt to produce sovereignty through static territorial regulation. The findings of this article affirm that embodied cultural materiality, as exemplified by the tempayan in Hulu Sembakung, is capable of penetrating and unsettling the mythologised boundaries of sovereignty imposed by the state.

Abstract

This study examines migration and remittance practices among returnees to Cilacap Regency, moving beyond dominant economic perspectives and focusing on their cultural and symbolic dimensions. Based on in-depth interviews with ten returnees, the study explores how migration is embedded in moral obligations, social recognition, and identity negotiations. The findings indicate that migration is primarily understood as a moral responsibility towards family, where remittances function as obligatory expressions of reciprocity rather than voluntary financial transfers. At the same time, remittances operate as visible markers of success that shape social status and generate new forms of inequality through processes of comparison and recognition. Furthermore, the return experience highlights ongoing identity negotiations, as migrants navigate expectations, gender roles, and shifting positions within their communities. Remittances are not simply economic resources but symbolic practices that sustain relationships, generate meaning, and shape social life. Thus, this study extends existing migration scholarship by demonstrating that economic outcomes cannot be fully understood without examining the underlying cultural logics. While previous research, particularly by Hein de Haas, has emphasized the conditional economic impacts of migration, this study complements that perspective by highlighting the moral, symbolic, and experiential dimensions of remittance practices

Abstract

Over the past century, Indonesia’s shifting political regimes have constrained local belief communities, including Pran Soeh from Muntilan, Central Java. This article analyzes Pran Soeh’s century-long pursuit of formal state recognition, a struggle intensified after 1965 when several members were accused of links to the G30S/PKI—an enduring stigma that undermined social legitimacy. Drawing on qualitative ethnography, we conducted participant observation, in-depth interviews, and historical and administrative document analysis. Data were analyzed using Spradley’s ethnographic sequence (domain, taxonomic, componential, and cultural-theme analyses). We find that Pran Soeh repeatedly chooses non-confrontational, mindfulness-informed strategies: rejecting violence, cultivating nonjudgmental attitudes, and adopting contemplative practices that frame uncontrollable events within the moral order of nature and God. These dispositions function as an ethical-political repertoire that sustains internal cohesion, enables dialogue and legal navigation, and supports gradual recognition as a local belief. The study contributes to scholarship on religion and social movements by showing how Javanese spirituality is translated into peaceful political agency and by extending mindfulness from individual practice to socio-political resistance. We recommend affirmative state policies that strengthen inclusiveness toward local beliefs.

Abstract

This paper examines indigenous leadership within the Sunda Wiwitan community, focusing on Susuru Hamlet in Kertajaya Village, Ciamis Regency. Indigenous leadership plays a crucial role in ensuring the survival of indigenous groups in Indonesia, particularly within Sunda Wiwitan, where leadership is deeply embedded in cultural and spiritual traditions.In this community, the highest leader is the Pangeran (Prince), a position currently held by Prince Gumirat Barna Alam. As the traditional leader, the Pangeran’s authority extends across various Sunda Wiwitan communities in West Java. The Pangeran is also recognized as the Pupuhu Adat, a title attributed to the community’s spiritual and cultural leader.The role of the Pupuhu Adat includes guiding collective decision-making, preserving cultural traditions, and providing spiritual leadership. Leadership is inherited hereditarily rather than determined through electoral processes, with consensus-based decision-making being highly valued. The Pupuhu Adat serves as the custodian of ancestral wisdom and traditions, ensuring the continuity and cohesion of the Sunda Wiwitan community.

Abstract

Abstrak This study examines the construction of maritime identity of the Biak tribe in Papua through the term Papoesche Zeerovers. This designation appeared in Dutch colonial archives to describe a group of pirates from Papua. With a qualitative approach and ethnohistorical methods, this study seeks to reconstruct the role and strategic position of the Biak tribe in the traditional shipping network of the Southwest Pacific region, as well as unravel colonial perceptions that distort their historical reality. The study's findings show that the Biak tribe has a complex marine navigation system, controls shipping lanes to Maluku and the coast of Papua New Guinea, and plays a vital role in cultural, economic, and maritime political exchanges. The label of pirates (zeerovers) pinned by the colonial government tended to be political and reductive, ignoring the local context of the shipping and resistance actions. Thus, this article emphasizes the importance of deconstructing colonial terms in rewriting Indonesia's maritime history from a local perspective and re-elevating the identity of the Biak tribe as formidable and autonomous sailors-navigators.
