Cultural studies constitutes an interdisciplinary area critically discussing socio-political contexts of various cultural practices in society. Its focus is on the relation among such cultural practices and the power controlling them. Cultural studies was pioneered by the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies (CCCS) of the University of Birmingham, England, in 1960s. Unlike what has been a tradition in the modern epistemology, cultural studies is concerned with what human emancipation aims at. Therefore, cultural studies does not only refer to a theoretical-conceptual matter but also to the location and critical action in which it manifests itself.

Abstract

Nowadays the Muna ethnic people who live in Muna Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province can be divided into two groups; they are the Muna ethnic people who still perform the rite of shift completely, and the Muna ethnic people who perform the rite of shift partially; the letter have modified the rite of shift. The rites which are performed to show the shift in status from the time before a baby is born to the time after it is born, when someone enters childhood and adulthood, when someone is married and when someone is dead. Such rites are referred to as the rites of shift. The problems of the present study can be formulated into three; they are (1) what the rites of shift performed by the Muna ethnic group is like; (2) the factors contributing to the continuity of the rites of shift; and (3) the factors causing the change in the rites of shift performed by the Muna ethnic people to take place. This study is a qualitative study with the paradigm of cultural studies. The theory of semiotics, the theory of hegemony, and the theory of deconstruction were used in the present study. The result of the study shows that there are six forms of the rites of shift performed by the Muna ethnic people; they are the rite of what is locally referred to as kasambu (feeding or eating with the hand), the rite of what is locally referred to as kampua (the hair cutting), the rite of what is locally referred to as kangkilo (circumcision), the rite of what is locally referred to as karia (being secluded), the rite of what is locally referred to as kagaa (marriage), and the rite of what is locally referred to as mate (death). The factors contributing to the continuity of such rites are ideology and belief. And the factors causing such rites to be changed are religion, economy, education, and science and technology.

Abstract

Tuturangiana andala ritual is a tradition of floating offerings which have been performed from generation to generation by the community of fishermen in Makassar Island. It used to be simply performed; however, being commodified, it had been performed more lively than before. The government of Baubau City had modified it; everything had been transformed into commodities. The problems arised were analyzed using the theory of semiotics, the theory of rites, and the theory of discourse of power and knowledge. The data were obtained through interview, observation, and documentation. The result of the study shows: first, the process of commodification could not be separated from the process of production, the process of distribution and the process of consumption of the tuturangiana ritual. What was produced for the performance of the tuturangiana andala ritual was the place where it was performed, the things needed for the offerings, the clothing, the dance and the music instrument. The commodified tuturangiana andala ritual was distributed through media and direct communication. It was consumed by the people living in Makassar Island and the local government for tourism. Second, the commodified tuturangiana andala ritual contained (1) the philosophical meaning, (2) the economic meaning, (3) the political meaning, (4) the cultural conservation. Third, the commodified tuturangiana ritual affected the components of the social cultural system of the community of fishermen in Makassar Island such as the common ideology, religion, art, politics, social stratification, technology, economy, and ecology.

Abstract

The gendang ritual of death, which is performed by the Karo ethnic people, has changed a lot in regard to its spirituality in the globalization era. Such change, which has caused the gendang ritual of death to be secularized, results from the interaction between the local cultural elements and the global cultural ones; meaning that a new form and meaning have appeared. This present study is intended to identify, analyze and explain what such change is like, the factors contributing to it and its implication. This present study was designed as a qualitative study using the critical interdisciplinary and multidimensional approach of cultural studies. The theory of deconstruction, the theory of comodification, and the theory of semiotics were used to answer such questions. The data were analyzed descriptively, qualitatively, and interpretatively. The data were collected through observation, in-depth interview, documentary study, and library research. Three conclusions were inferred from the present study. First, the form of the change in spirituality of the gendang ritual of death performed by the Karo ethnic people in the globalization era; second, the factors contributing to such change; third, the meaning of such change. The study shows that the interaction between the local culture and global culture has marginalized the local cultural values; as a result, such a ritual has a new meaning, and is becoming degraded and secularized.

Abstract

The religious practice performed by the Hindus at Senduro Village cannot be separated from the context of the relationship between the dominant culture of the Bali Hindus and the subculture of the Hindus at Senduro Village. The Bali Hindus who are stronger culturally, economically and symbolically affect the religious practice performed by the Hindus at Senduro Village in regard to their tatwa (philosophy), acara (ritual) and organization. The problems formulated in this article are as follows: the forms, the contributing factors, and the meaning of the religious practice performed by the Hindus at Senduro Village. The qualitative method was used to obtain the data needed in the present study. The theories used are the theory of practice, the theory of subaltern, the theory of semiotics, and the theory of identity. Before the temple was constructed the Hindus at Senduro Village was classified as the followers of what is referred to as Kejawen. The reason was that their religious practice was highly specific and different from the religious practices performed by the Hindus in the other areas. After the Mandara Giri Semeru Agung Temple was constructed, the Hindus at Senduro Village were affected by the Balinese in the way in which they perform their religious practice. Such an impact could be observed from the aspect of their tattwa (philosophy), the aspect of their religious ritual, and the aspect of their religious organization.

Abstract

The existence of the local culture in the globalization era is a highly interesting phenomenon to explore. The close relationship between human beings and the culture proves that human beings cannot live without culture; how primitive they are, as exemplified by the life of the Culambacu ethnic people. Based on such an assumption, the monsehe ritual becomes an interesting thing to explore. The problems of the present study can be formulated as follows: how the monsehe ritual performed by the Culambacu ethnic people is like; what ideologies contribute to the monsehe ritual; and what meaning it contains. The data in the present study were collected through observation, interview, library research, and documentation. The theory of functional structure, the theory of semiotics, and the theory of hegemony were used to analyze the problems of the study. The result of the study shows that, first, the monsehe ritual is performed to ward off misfortune (mosehe inia) and to settle conflict and adultery, and to treat sick people. In addition, it is also performed as part of the death ceremony. Second, the monsehe ritual contains cosmological ideology and religious ideology. Third, the totality of the mosehe ritual which is performed by the Culambacu ethnic people is accumulated in the form of symbols which are rich in meanings such as religious meaning, harmonious meaning, educational meaning, identity meaning, social control meaning, and solidarity meaning.
