Abstract

This research-based paper aims at assessing the existence of female indigenous preservers in the preservation program of custom and culture by the state, and formulating the alternative model of preserving the custom and culture in Banyumas through strengthening the women's participation. This is necessary because the reality in the society shows that both women and men are equal to have the important role. In this case, the existence of women in Pekuncen, Kalisalak, Cikakak, Pasir Wetan and Gerduren is a representation of the synthesis between history, customs and Islamic values that colors the life of the local people. When the state enters the domain of the society and implements the program of preserving traditional villages, the existence of women is marginalized on account of being not directly involved. In fact, the actors of the traditional ceremonies such as unggah-unggahan, jaro rojab, gubrak lesung, rengkong and lengger, as well as the actors of the traditional cloth-making which is so-called lawon, are partly women.Keywords:  women, preserving the custom, BanyumasPenelitian ini dimaksudkan untuk mengkaji eksistensi kaum perempuan pelaku adat di tengah program pelestarian adat istiadat dan budaya oleh negara, serta merumuskan alternatif model pelestarian adat istiadat dan budaya di Banyumas melalui penguatan partisipasi kaum perempuan. Hal ini diperlukan karena realitas di masyarakat menunjukkan bahwa perempuan dan laki-laki adalah pelaku adat yang sama-sama memegang peranan penting. Dalam hal ini, keberadaan kaum perempuan di Pekuncen, Kalisalak, Cikakak, Pasir Wetan dan Gerduren adalah representasi sintesa antara perjalanan sejarah, adat istiadat dan nilai-nilai Islam yang mewarnai sendi-sendi kehidupan masyarakat setempat. Ketika negara masuk dan melakukan program pelestarian desa adat, eksistensi kaum perempuan justru tergeser karena perempuan tidak dilibatkan secara langsung. Padahal pelaku upacara unggah-unggahan, jaro rojab, gubrak lesung, rengkong, lengger, pembuatan kain tradisional lawon, sebagiannya adalah perempuan.Kata kunci: perempuan, pelestarian adat, Banyumas

Abstract

Abstract:  Colonialism, capitalism, and the city are three elements that always correlated. At the beginning of the 20th-century cities, growth was inseparable from the economic expansion of Dutch capitalism represented by the plantation industry, trade offices, insurance offices, and elite shopping areas. The exploitation of urban space followed this process. As the regime changed in early 1942, the growth of the symbol of capitalism in the city was halted by the Japanese Military Government. This article attempts to explain the relationship between the development of capitalism, the modernization of the city, and its impact on society. To explain this connection, the author uses historical methods using the city government report. Based on analysis of municipal tax report and the response of indigenous people who lived within the city, it can be concluded that there is an influence of capitalism on the high intensity of exploitation and conflict in struggling for urban space. Modernization of the city is not merely efforts to create a city comfortable and hygienic, but the strategy of commerce urban space. Modernization of the colonial city has covered the suffering of most people that have their own way of living. Abstrak: Kolonialisme, kapitalisme dan kota adalah tiga unsur yang selalu berkorelasi. Pada awal abad ke-20 pertumbuhan kota tidak terlepas dari ekspansi ekonomi kapitalisme Belanda yang diwakili oleh industri perkebunan, perkantoran perdagangan, perkantoran asuransi dan kawasan perbelanjaan elit. Proses ini diikuti dengan eksploitasi ruang kota. Ketika rezim berganti pada awal 1942, pertumbuhan simbol kapitalisme di kota itu dihentikan oleh Pemerintah Militer Jepang. Artikel ini mencoba menjelaskan hubungan antara perkembangan kapitalisme, modernisasi kota dan pengaruhnya terhadap masyarakat. Untuk menjelaskan hubungan tersebut, penulis menggunakan metode sejarah dengan menggunakan laporan pemerintah kota. Berdasarkan analisis laporan pajak kota dan respon masyarakat adat yang tinggal bersama di kota dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh kapitalisme terhadap tingginya intensitas eksploitasi dan konflik dalam memperebutkan ruang kota. Modernisasi kota bukan semata-mata upaya menciptakan kota yang nyaman dan bersih, tetapi strategi perdagangan ruang kota. Modernisasi kota kolonial telah menutupi penderitaan sebagian besar masyarakat yang memiliki cara hidup sendiri-sendiri.

Abstract

This article re-examines the importance of geomorphological analysis in order to provide more comprehensive explanation of various historical events, especially in the coastal area of Southeast Sumatra, Indonesia. Many historical sources regarding this region need a deeper interpretation related to the geomorphological dynamics of this region as well as the Strait of Malacca. Comprehensive analysis of this element will prevent an anachronistic story of the past. Many historians of Indonesia and the Malacca Strait region have erroneously tended to narrate events that occurred in the early first millennium or more than 1500 years ago based on the contemporary maps. It is important for historians to be aware of the fact that geologically and geographically the coastal area of Southeast Sumatra and the Strait of Malacca region have undergone very rapid geomorphological changes. In fact, there were many kingdoms in Southeast Asia that emerged and developed before the dominance of Sriwijaya, located in the west cost of Sumatra and the coastal parts of Java.Keywords: Geomorphological Analysis; Strait of Malacca; Maritime History; Southeast Sumatra Coast; Anachronistic History. Artikel ini mengkaji kembali pentingnya analisis geomorfologi untuk memberikan penjelasan yang lebih komprehensif tentang berbagai peristiwa bersejarah, terutama di wilayah pesisir Sumatera Tenggara, Indonesia. Banyak sumber sejarah mengenai wilayah ini membutuhkan interpretasi yang lebih dalam terkait dengan dinamika geomorfologi wilayah ini serta Selat Malaka. Analisis komprehensif dari elemen ini akan mencegah cerita anakronistik masa lalu. Banyak sejarawan Indonesia dan wilayah Selat Malaka telah cenderung untuk menceritakan peristiwa yang terjadi pada awal milenium pertama atau lebih dari 1500 tahun yang lalu berdasarkan peta kontemporer. Pen-ting bagi para sejarawan untuk menyadari fakta bahwa secara geologis dan geografis wilayah pesisir Sumatera Tenggara dan Selat Malaka telah mengalami perubahan geomorfologi yang sangat cepat. Bahkan, ada banyak kerajaan di Asia Tenggara yang muncul dan berkembang sebelum dominasi Sriwijaya, yang terletak di bagian barat Sumatera dan bagian pesisir Jawa.Kata kunci: Analisis Geomorfologi; Selat Malaka; Sejarah Maritim; Pantai Sumatra Tenggara; Sejarah anakronistik.

Abstract

This article reveals Semarang City’s history, an extremely vulnerable area to floods and examines what the government has done to overcome this greatly chronic problem. Its default condition as a lowland city in direct contact with hilly areas and sea makes the potential for floods exhaustive. Thus, it is prone to pluvial, local, and coastal floods. Various policies carried out from the colonial era to the Semarang City government have so far not been able to control floods as expected. Countermeasures using non-structural methods through spatial planning and environmental law enforcement have yielded no specific results. Countermeasures with structural methods such as river normalization or the construction of flood control infrastructure become no more than a dull blade. For years, spatial planning policies have been implemented and many infrastructures have been built, but the threat of flooding is increasing and expanding. It is necessary to change the development paradigm adopted by the government so that it no longer boosts infrastructure and investment, then re-applies the memayu hayuning bawana philosophy.Artikel ini mengungkap sejarah Kota Semarang yang sangat rentan terhadap banjir dan mengkaji apa yang telah dilakukan pemerintah untuk mengatasi masalah yang sangat kronis ini. Kondisi bawaannya sebagai kota dataran rendah yang bersentuhan langsung dengan daerah perbukitan dan laut membuat potensi banjir sangat besar. Sehingga rawan terhadap banjir pluvial, lokal, dan pesisir. Berbagai kebijakan yang dilakukan sejak zaman penjajahan hingga pemerintah Kota Semarang selama ini belum mampu mengendalikan banjir seperti yang diharapkan. Penanggulangan dengan metode non-struktural melalui penataan ruang dan penegakan hukum lingkungan belum membuahkan hasil yang spesifik. Penanggulangan dengan metode struktural seperti normalisasi sungai atau pembangunan infrastruktur pengendalian banjir tidak lebih dari pisau tumpul. Selama bertahun-tahun, kebijakan penataan ruang telah diterapkan dan banyak infrastruktur telah dibangun, tetapi ancaman banjir semakin meningkat dan meluas. Perlu mengubah paradigma pembangunan yang dianut pemerintah agar tidak lagi menggenjot infrastruktur dan investasi, kemudian kembali menerapkan filosofi memayu hayuning bawana.
