Abstract

Urban areas have developed rapidly in terms of demography and culture. This is because urban areas attract people who are searching for higher income and a better life than those in rural areas. Demographical and cultural development in urban areas often affects local culture. One example can be found in Pekanbaru City, Riau Province, Indonesia. The Riau Malays, the city’s native ethnic group, no longer dominates the city’s demographical landscape. In fact, the Minangkabaus as a migrant ethnic group actually dominate Pekanbaru City. However, there is still a limited body of documentation of and research on the language and culture in Pekanbaru City. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the toponyms of various areas in Pekanbaru City. This research is also intended to reveal the meaning of less popular local toponyms to provide valuable information for the general public. This research used the qualitative method with the toponymic approach. Data consist of all sub-district names in Pekanbaru City. Analysis was conducted to classify those names based on their basic toponymy, focusing on their lexico-semantic aspects. The meaning of those toponyms was obtained from interviews with selected respondents. In addition, this study also connects toponymy with various sociolinguistic aspects, especially ethnicity, language use, and code-mixing. Results show that most local toponyms in Pekanbaru City refer to certain geographical conditions, trees, hopes, and rivers. Furthermore, most local toponyms contain roots which originated from Indonesian, Riau Malay, and Javanese languages. In terms of ethnicity, Pekanbaru City is dominated by the Minangkabaus, Riau Malays, and Javanese. The dominant languages in Pekanbaru City are Indonesian, Minang, and Riau Malay. Code-mixing in local toponyms mostly occur between Indonesian and Javanese. However, not all sub-district names have identifiable toponymic meaning, so further research is needed to complement the existing results.

Abstract

The Chinese have settled in Bintan Island since Zheng He’s great expeditions in the 15th century. However, large-scale arrivals of the Chinese did not occur until in 1740. They worked as laborers in pepper and gambier plantations that belonged to Buginese nobles. Internal and external changes in the political landscape, as well as land and territorial tenures between the Hokkiens in Tanjungpinang and Teochews in Senggarang, added a new nuance to their roles as middlemen, land owners, and coolies in pepper and gambier plantations. This gave rise to contestation between these two ethnic groups. How did the land tenure process take place? What was the role of the Chinese and the Dutch East Indies government in that contestation? Using the concept of Chinese expansion proposed by Kwee Kui Han, this research found that the Chinese were able to establish very structured and systematic presence in the island, both in its hinterland and coastal areas. This condition made it easier for the Chinese to gain control of the economy. This study used the historical method to reconstruct the Chinese’s roles as intermediary traders and plantation owners, as well as the contestation that occurred in Tanjungpinang in the 19th century. Primary data were obtained from Dutch colonial-era sources and the writings of local and foreign historians in order to generate a more comprehensive picture of the topic.

Abstract

Kasepuhan Citorek is centered in Citorek Village, Banten, West Java. The majority of the population are farmers. All harvested produces are only consumed as needed, so the excess rice is stored in a barn called leuit. Rice in leuits can last for more than ten years. This raises the question as to why the rice in leuits can last for so many years. This study aims to find out and explain the customary rules for using crops, the way to store and collect rice to and from leuits, and various aspects related to leuits, i.e. the accompanying traditions, forms, directions, materials, and procedures for making a leuit. This descriptive research used the qualitative approach. Results show that the high durability of rice stored in leuits is due to not only the leuit structure and shape, but also the prevailing rules for planting, harvesting, storing, and taking rice to and from a leuit. Moreover, there are also traditions such as rejecting reinforcements, taboos, and special prayers. In this way, the "correct" treatment and quality of rice are ensured from the start so that the rice stored in a leuit can last for years.

Abstract

The Pakpak ethnic group occupy two areas in North Sumatra, namely Dairi and Pakpak Bharat, and speak a language with its own set of characters called the Pakpak script. This study discusses the Pakpak script characteristics and writing materials, and provides a compiled description of the Pakpak community in the past based on written sources. The purpose of this study is to determine the characteristics of the Pakpak script and provide a historical description of the ethnic group based on written sources. This study uses the exploratory inductive reasoning model. Results show that the Pakpak and Batak scripts share similar characteristics. Stones and tree barks were the two main media on which the script was written. Based on historical records, the Pakpak people practiced animism with a unique burial system in which corpses were burned and the ashes were then placed in stone grave containers called perabuen. The livelihood system of the Pakpak community was dominated by rice farming. There was also a social system consisting of permangmang (the “oldest” clan) and persinabul(the “younger” clan), each of which had to respect each other and obey the existing rules.

Abstract

Hip-hop culture and rap music originated from the African-American community that emerged around the 1970s in New York City. Hip-hop started to enter PRC in the 1990s and continues to grow among the younger generation. A hip-hop talent search show titled The Rap of China, released in 2017, became very popular, bringing hip-hop music and culture to the fore. Unfortunately, it must eventually face PRC government’s intervention in its development. This article discusses the influence of Chinese government's censorship policies on the development of hip-hop music and culture in China. This case study was conducted using the historical approach, with the primary data source being the recordings of The Rap of China from seasons 1 to 4. One of our most important findings is that hip-hop music and culture can survive and thrive amid the strict censorship of the PRC government.

Abstract

Fables typically attach human attributes to animal characters to convey moral messages and teachings, but a number of modern authors use animal characters in their literary works to criticize current sociocultural phenomena. One famous literary work that contains many forms of allegory about relationships between human and animal characters is O, a novel by Eka Kurniawan. Allegories in O are used to exhibit contradictions between humans and animals. Animal characters are presented as possessing human traits, bringing up the idea that animals can become ideal human beings (the concept of “being human”). Meanwhile, human characters are presented as possessing animal instincts, bringing up the idea that humans can become animals (the concept of “becoming animal”). The author also explores humanitarian issues by presenting animal characters who turn out to be more humane than humans.

Abstract

This research investigates how two movies, both entitled Ala Kachuu (2018 and 2002), represent ala kachuu, i.e. a tradition of bride kidnapping in Kyrgyzstan. Even though the Kyrgyz government has formally banned this practice since 2016, which is considered as a form of forced marriage, it still exists and is practiced by some Kyrgyz. This research used the qualitative method coupled with the mise-en-scène cinematographic technique. By using Stuart Hall’s representation theory (1997) and Mansour Fakih’s gender inequality theory (2008) as analysis tools, this study concludes that both movies represent ala kachuu as a tradition which promotes gender inequality. Moreover, they also represent it as a tradition that leads to various forms of violence against women in Kyrgyzstan.

Abstract

By applying the mixed research methods combining new historicism and digital humanities with AntConc-assisted distant reading techniques, this research aims to explore a reconstruction of Jakarta's history offered in From Batavia to Jakarta (1619–1999), a collection of poems by Zeffry J. Alkatiri. Results show that history can be reconstructed through the physical structure of narrative poetry represented by the dominant usage of pronoun "they" and intra-sentence conjunctions and prepositions such as "and", "in", and "the" instead of licentia poetica which can violate language rules. However, in the structural analysis, AntConc was not able to detect several linguistic aspects such as typography, figures of speech, metaphors, hyperboles, and personifications in several subchapters, so manual analysis was still required. Results show that the reconstruction of Jakarta’s history by Alkatiri revolves around four main themes, i.e. violence, the struggle against colonialism, Betawi and peranakan cultures, and Jakarta as a city, each of which is imbued with issues pertaining to identity, such as race, class, and urban lifestyle. This reconstruction also features the words "child" and "person" as markers of certain identities.

Abstract

Mail-order bride websites can be easily found in cyberspace. These websites sell Indonesian women to Chinese men as wives. This study aims to explore the phenomenon of women cyber-trafficking in mail-order bride websites, especially the background of mail-order bride websites and their impacts on the victims. This qualitative research used the case study approach and the socialist feminism theory to investigate three mail-order bride websites. This study concludes that the oppression of women on mail-order bride websites is caused by long-standing patriarchy in Indonesia and China reflected in daily practices, cultural manifestations, and literary works in both countries. Capitalism has also played a role in the emergence of mail-order bride websites. This paper suggests promotion of gender equality and eradication of human trafficking in order to minimize cyber-trafficking through mail-order bride websites.

Abstract

The article entitled "Practice of Postdramatic Theater in Indonesia", is an examination of the practice of postdramatic theater in Indonesia in the 1990s to 2000s in Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, and even West Sumatra. This practice spawned generations that continue to grow and develop through aesthetics based on performance texts, outside of the conventional drama texts that we understand so far. Each theater community, regardless of whether it is postdramatic or not, has carried out an in-depth exploration and elaboration of all possible bodies, texts and artistic materials which are used as the main capital of performances. This study uses qualitative methods, with several theories, namely; historical theory and postdramatic theater theory. The process of composing, structure, and texture of postdramatic theater developed by Hans-Thies Lehmann is centered on the elements of text, space, time, body, and media depicted in the works of SAE Theatre, Grave Theater, Black-and-White Payung Theatre, Garage Theatre, and Black-White Art Community.
