Abstract

The local community’s culture has been recognized as playing an essential role in achieving food security. This study attempts to demystify a cultural tradition among an Indonesian agriculture society, called Mekambare, that plays such a role in sustainable agricultural management. It was conducted in East Kolaka Regency, an area dominated by lowland rice farmers. Framed in a qualitative method, this study used observation, in-depth interviews, and document studies as techniques of data collection. The results showed that Mekambare played a crucial role in forming social solidarity among lowland rice farming communities. Through Mekambare, farming communities build mutual cooperation and support one another in overcoming challenges related to supplying food demands. This social solidarity is manifested in the exchange of food commodities, social support, and the dissemination of traditional knowledge in agricultural management. With Mekambare, the lowland rice farming communities maintain the balance of the agricultural ecosystem by utilizing natural predators, utilizing organic fertilizers from livestock manure, and implementing integrated weed control. This research can make a positive contribution to efforts to achieve sustainable food security and the welfare of farming communities in East Kolaka Regency.

Abstract

This research focuses on the perspective of indigenous ecologies to see how the Lembata people maintain and care for their relationship with nature. The research located in the Lebatukan District highlands area of Lembata Regency in East Nusa Tenggara Province of Indonesia. The Lo Tiwa ritual is carried out by the Lembata people when pests attack their crops. When snails were attacking rice plants, people realized that they could eradicate the slugs through modern ways. However, they also realized that with the pesticide technology, the life of snails was threatened with extinction, which is considered unwise in preserving the local environment. Instead, they raised this issue on the altar of the Lo Tiwa ritual. In this way, preserving the relationship between humans and nature has happened, which is an integral part of environmental studies. Snails as pests are not killed, and rice plants are free from pests. In the Indonesian context, this research finds its context in efforts to promote a culture where the government wants to place culture, including rituals, as one of the essential forces in development. Apart from rituals, other cultural promotion objects include; oral traditions, manuscripts, customs, folk games, traditional sports, traditional knowledge, arts, and languages.

Abstract

Tagi Jere in the Tidore language means to visit the tomb of a saint. This ritual usually begins with certain preparations and is then followed by a visit to the Jere such as Jere Sultan Babullah, Jere Doe-doe, Jere Laboso, Jere Amo, Jere Tui, and Jere Wange Lamo. Tagi Jere is carried out as an expression of gratitude to God for the blessings that have been given. In addition, the Tagi Jere ritual is also carried out under certain conditions, such as crop failure, or as an antidote to distress or disaster. The researcher was interested in seeing the Tagi Jere ritual in the Tidore ethnic community in Ternate, especially in the Foramadiahi sub-district, using a qualitative approach. The interpretation of the data in the field shows that the Tagi Jere ritual is used as a request by the community based on their respective intentions. They brought Boso Kene (small pots of earthenware) containing Bira Kuraci (yellow rice) which they brought to the visited Jere. The Tagi Jere ritual also has a social value to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood that are manifested in mutual cooperation activities. The rituals performed by the Tidore ethnic community in various circles are preserved from generation to generation.

Many motifs on the cloth developed identify each regional area in NTT. Ikat cloth motifs are symbols of communication tools; i.e., Ende-Lio motifs associated with traditional rituals are represented by cloth motifs are the symbols for regulations that must be implemented by the people. For people of North Mollo, NTT, ikat woven product with identical motifs have widely been used for blankets and sarongs named as Pauf designed exclusively for males to wear.

Abstract

This journal aims to analyze the role of national identities in international relations through research on the Polewali Mandar International Folk & Art Festival (PIFAF), which is held in Barat Island. The current study makes use of a qualitative methodology and focuses on three principles of diplomacy in the realm of business, namely, mutual understanding dialogue, culture of exchange, and cross-border collaboration. This study clarifies how PIFAF functions as a crucial platform for enhancing regional identity and tying it in with international connections. This festival creates a space for the discussion of religious ideas, helps to reduce negative bias, and promotes religious understanding among international participants by showcasing festival essentials such as local cuisine, music, dance, and traditional rituals to foreign visitors. Such a plan creates new opportunities for positive public diplomacy. The four-point collaboration principle is explained in the PIFAF context. Through collaboration, this festival gives local educators and senior citizens a chance to interact with international partners and foster knowledge and creativity that can increase worldwide awareness of global development issues. All of the analysis indicates that PIFAF plays a significant role in developing strong local identities and, occasionally, creating new standards for international joint work. The principles of diplomacy in religion that are presented at this festival provide a starting point for understanding religious texts that are more widely accepted among many religious groups, have the potential to strengthen international relations, and encourage more intense global cooperation.

Abstract

Whether or not a policy is effective can be caused by implementing factors. The implementation implementer referred to as the street bureaucracy is the link between the bureaucracy and the community. In such relationships are influenced by the culture of each. This article discusses the implementation of stunting handling in West Pasaman District, West Sumatra Province. The objectives of this article are: describe the implementation of stunting handling policies by implementers and explain the acceptance of targets to the policy implementation program. This article is based on research using qualitative methods with an ethnographic approach. The research data were collected by observation techniques and in-depth interviews. The results showed that the implementation of stunting prevention in West Pasaman has been formally carried out well. The Regional Apparatus Organization involved and the implementation officer at the spearhead are working seriously with each of their duties. This has made the Regional Government of West Pasaman Regency ranked first in the Convergence Action to Accelerate Stunting Reduction 4 times in a row from 2019 to 2022. However, people in Nagari who are the locus of stunting feel that the program approach actually makes the target community (especially those with stunting children) feel depressed and intimidated, causing resistance to posyandu activities. So it can be said that the implementation of stunting prevention carried out is less effective.

Abstract

Indonesia, as the sixth largest tobacco-producing country in the world, has participated in the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) by issuing compromise regulations through Government Regulation (PP) No. 109 of 2012. This regulation regulates restrictions on tobacco production and distribution of products made from tobacco raw materials. Furthermore, PP No. 109 of 2012 determines the increases in tobacco excise rates and the determination of limits on nicotine levels also sparked unrest among tobacco farmers in the Temanggung area. This article attempts to explain the insistence of farmers, especially in the eastern slope of Mount Sumbing, Pagergunung Village, Bulu District, Temanggung, in maintaining tobacco cultivation even though they are faced with an anti-tobacco campaign from the FCTC. The continued cultivation of tobacco can be understood as a form of regimen of cultivated plants. This article is an anthropological study with a regimentation theoretical perspective and ethnographic approach as a research method which presents the research results. From this research, it is known that the cultivation regimen is controlled by mythology, tobacco trade tricks, and the pretext of tradition as a socio-cultural surplus.

Each carving has a specific meaning, imbued with the values of Toraja life such as honesty, hard work, cooperation and unity. Tongkonan carvings, especially Pa' Tedong, Pa'manuk Londong, Pa' Barre Allo, and Pa' Sussu, not only reflect high artistic aesthetic values, but are also an important forum for conveying cultural messages, norms and values. which strengthens the work ethic of the Torajan people as a whole, enabling them to maintain traditions and apply ancestral values in everyday life. The work ethic of the Toraja people, reflected in Tongkonan carvings, teaches the importance of honesty, determination, hard work, cooperation and unity as the keys to prosperity and success in life.

Abstract

Mangongkal holi is a secondary burial ritual of the Toba Batak tribe that can only be performed in the hometown of each clan located around Lake Toba. As the highest ritual in Toba Batak customs, Mangongkal Holi is a representation of the cultural identity of the Toba Batak tribe. Based on this, Mangongkal Holi can be an integral part in relation to the government's efforts to revitalise Lake Toba as a tourist destination. This article aims to analyse the potential of the Mangongkal Holi ritual as a cultural destination. The results of the analysis prove that the presence of dance, percussion, and ritual performance elements in the mangongkal holi procession of mangongkal holi has the potential as a cultural tourism destination for national and international tourists. The implementation of mangongkal holi also has an impact on the creative economy industry at the location of implementation. However, the potential of mangongkal holi as a cultural tourism destination is hampered by an unstructured implementation schedule and socialisation of ritual implementation which tends to be exclusive to the Batak toba clan.
