Abstract

This article defines the various layers and identity labels of the Balinese society. Much of their indigenous customs have been linked with Hinduism, and many would regard the two to be inseparable. This article, however, attempts to separate the indigenous elements of ancestral worship from the Vedic or Hindu understanding of societal divisions in order to properly study the two and how they influence one another. The history of the island has enforced the rigid caste system, but the application of Hindu philosophy serves an idealized definition of caste. In such a way, the Hindu or Vedic belief does provide much relief for Balinese society. However, they are still defined by their patrilineal heritage, and are bound to ancestral worship as per their indigenous religion. Fueled by the contemporary socio-political landscape of Bali, there is a need to properly define what Balinese identity actually is.

Abstract

This research examines Mahabharata epic puppet (wayang) comics, created by three renowned comic artists: R. A. Kosasih, Teguh Santosa, and Gun Gun, who respectively have Sundanese, Javanese, and Balinese cultural backgrounds, through the lens of Indonesian identity articulation. The comics of wayang which translates ‘puppet’, are a distinctive genre that employs panels to depict puppetry tales. While being influenced by foreign cultures such as American comic art and the Indian Mahabharata epic, these artists intentionally incorporate Indonesian elements into their works. This is evident from 1955 to the present. This research used a critical qualitative descriptive approach to investigate the articulation of the identity discourse within the cultural realm of comics. The comic works of the artists are analysed through articulation and hegemony theory. The research concludes that the artists’ works establish a cultural connection and relate cultural comic art to Indonesian readers. This not only constructs Indonesian identity but also promotes cultural diversity.

Abstract

The contemporary history of Balinese performing arts is characterized by the inception of the renowned puppeteer Wayan Nardayana’s monumental puppet show, popularly known as puppet or wayang Cenk Blonk, derived from the name of their punakawan characters (servants to the main hero) who are comical, intelligent, critical, and possessed of a broad range of social knowledge. The emergence of the Cenk Blonk puppeteer since the early 1990s has led to a significant expansion of the wayang performance in Bali, from rural older adult to urban youth audiences. This article examines the popularity of puppeteer Nardayana, focusing on his ability to incorporate rhetoric into his performances. The data was taken from the dialogue texts of his performances and examined with rhetoric theory. The study demonstrates that puppeteer Nardayana’s popularity is attributed to his ability to present stories in a refreshing, original, critical, and entertaining style without sacrificing the traditional puppetry principles. This study contributes to appreciating the revitalization of traditional art in a globalized era.

Abstract

The spatial arrangement of the Tenganan Dauh Tukad (TDT) settlement is perceived as the acculturation of Bali Aga (Old Bali) and Java Hindu Kingdom of Majapahit traditions. Accordingly, this study identifies the concepts, values, and philosophy behind residential space arrangement. Thus, this study enacted an interpretative approach. Data analysis was performed qualitatively in residential settings, i.e., culture, behavior, and spatial. This study demonstrated that the geometric construction of residential space in the TDT was formed in three manners. First, it blended the existing philosophy of harmony between the macrocosm and microcosm concepts. Second, the spatial arrangement of the TDT settlement adhered to the inward-oriented concept, with the village road as the central axis of village orientation. Third, cultural acculturation between the Bali Aga and Majapahit caused alterations in the settlement’s spatial orientation. This article contributes as a reference in creating traditional residential spaces that must consider socio-cultural aspects dynamically.

Abstract

Over the past four decades, Bali has emerged as a leading MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, Exhibitions) tourism destination. This study examines the feasibility of organizing green-hybrid conferences in Bali post Covid-19, focusing on identifying key potentials and obstacles for effective management. Employing qualitative methods, utilizing interviews and document analysis, the research assesses infrastructure, human resources, and logistical aspects relevant to hosting such conferences. Bali demonstrates adequate infrastructure and human resources but encounters challenges like technological limitations and logistical dependence. These findings shed light on the complexities of implementing green-hybrid conference management post-pandemic. The study’s limitation lies in its focuses solely on Bali, thus potentially limiting generalizability. Nonetheless, it emphasizes collaborative stakeholder efforts and sustainable practices integration in conference management. It highlights the importance of investing in technology and local capacity building to improve feasibility. Future research could explore other destinations’ experiences regarding long term economic and environmental impacts of green-hybrid conference initiatives.

Abstract

This research aims to validate the memorable experiences of domestic tourists during their travels in Bali. The significance of this topic lies in the absence of studies on the post-pandemic memorable experiences of domestic tourists in Bali. The natural beauty and cultural arts, interactions with the local community and fellow tourists, as well as culinary and gastronomic experiences, are factors contributing to these memorable experiences, serving as primary reasons for domestic tourists to return to Bali. The research used a quantitative approach, involving a survey of 68 members of the academic community from Indonesian universities. The research suggests that the perceived excellence of tourism services in Bali positively influences tourists' likelihood of returning to the destination. Positive experiences in places like Pandawa, Ubud, Uluwatu, and Nusa Penida influence tourists' tendency to return to Bali. The research adds to the existing body of literature on memorable experiences of domestic tourists in Bali and highlights the need for sustainable gastronomic maps, halal, and vegan food options for tourists.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine the impact of destination image, destination image, perceived value of medical costs, and perceived value of medical facilities and services on the intention to visit Bali as a medical tourism destination. The research used quantitative methodology, employing a survey method. The population consisted of all of domestic tourists who visited Bali. The sample was 87 domestic tourists who came to Bali for medical tourism purposes. The research findings indicate that destination image, perceived value of medical costs, and perceived value of medical facilities and services have an impact on intention to visit Bali for medical tourism. However, the perception of Bali as a destination did not have any impact on tourists' intention to visit for medical tourism purposes. These findings provide both theoretical and practical implication. A collaborative effort involving several parties is necessary to enhance the branding and promotion of medical tourism.

Abstract

Spiritual knowledge has been found significant in environmental conservation, yet its role in developing tourism is under-researched. This study aims to explore the potential of spiritual knowledge and how it is being implemented in rural tourism practices. Tri Hita Karana becomes an underpinning spiritual knowledge under this study enquiry, with Taro village was the case study. Taro reflects the community’s spiritual wisdom in their destination management. Data was collected through direct interviews with 7 key informants and observations to 3 sites.
