Book Description
Buku ini memberi fokus kepada warisan sakral sama ada yang masih wujud serta diamalkan, mahupun yang telah lama ditinggalkan oleh masyarakat, umumnya di Nusantara. Sakral secara khusus bermaksud suci, mempunyai kuasa khas malah ajaib serta luar biasa, sering dikaitkan dengan hal yang bersifat kudus, transenden, misteri, sempurna dan mempunyai kesan transformatif kepada kehidupan dan takdir masyarakat yang mengamalkan dan menganutinya. Biarpun dunia kini telah semakin maju dan menjunjung tinggi nilai sains dan teknologi dalam kehidupan dan pembangunan negara, hakikatnya masyarakat yang menjadi asas kemajuan itu adalah manusia yang pernah tinggal dan merasai pengalaman sakral yang dilaksanakan dan dipercayai oleh generasi terdahulu. Sakral adalah sebuah pengalaman yang dilalui dan dipelajari secara tidak langsung oleh semua kelompok masyarakat dan wajar untuk dijadikan warisan dan rujukan kepada generasi akan datang tentang konsep “suci” yang pernah menjadi tonggak kepada kebudayaan dan adat istiadat sesebuah masyarakat. Konsep suci ini menyangkut hal-hal yang wajib diterima tanpa bantahan dan diakui benar-benar terjadi tanpa pembuktian dan hanya bersandarkan cerita dan kepercayaan orang tua-tua yang pernah mengalami, mendengar kembali atau mengaitkan amalan tersebut dengan peristiwa dahsyat yang pernah terjadi puluhan tahun malah ribuan tahun sebelumnya. Buku ini mengumpulkan 11 bab yang memberikan fokus kepada pelbagai aspek warisan sakral yang menarik dan luas sifatnya di Nusantara. Penelitian dibuat sekitar pelbagai isu yang melibatkan masyarakat Melayu di Semenanjung Malaysia, Melayu di Selatan Thailand, Bajau Semporna di Sabah, Dusun di Brunei, Mandailing di Medan, Indonesia, Cina di Pulau Pinang, Malaysia dan Tionghua di Jawa Barat, Indonesia. Buku ini merupakan hasil pendokumentasian ketiga kumpulan tujahan Warisan Sakral dengan pengumpulan data kajian yang menghubungjalinkan para penyelidik dari Malaysia dengan rakan-rakan serantau di Thailand, Brunei dan Indonesia. Semoga buku ini dapat dimanfaatkan sebaiknya untuk meningkatkan pemahaman serta pengetahuan masyarakat tentang warisan sakral Nusantara yang pelbagai rencam, unik serta menarik sifatnya untuk diperhalusi.

The New Santri
Author: Norshahril Saat
Publisher:
ISBN: 9789814881470
Category : Authority
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Just like the Gutenberg revolution in the fifteenth century, which led to the emergence of non-conventional religious authority in the Christian world, the current information technology revolution, particularly through mediums such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter, has triggered the re-construction and decentralization of religious authority in Islam. New santri (pious individuals) and preachers emerged from the non-conventional religious educational system. They not only challenged the traditional authorities, but also redefine and re-conceptualize old religious terminologies, such as hijra and wasatiyya. This book explores the dynamics of religious authority in Indonesia with special attention to the challenges from the "new santri". It is a rich and important book on religion. I recommend students of religion in Indonesia and other countries to read it. Ahmad Syafi'i Maarif Professor Emeritus of History at Yogyakarta State University An important and timely volume that addresses the changing nature of Islamic leadership in the world's most popular Muslim country. This book debunks many (mis)perceptions that Indonesia Islam is monolithic. It also redefines dominant characterization of Islam by Orientalist scholars, such as santri and abangan Muslims. Haedar Nashir Chairman of Muhammadiyah This edited volume evaluates the new development of Islamic scholarship and authority in Indonesia. Things have changed significantly in recent times that make many observers and researchers wondering: has Indonesia moved from traditional authorities, mainstream Islamic organizations, and the established scholarship to the new actors, movements and platforms? Has the change occurs owing to the democratization and political reforms that took place in the last twenty years or are there other factors we need to take into account? The contributors in this book provide possible answers from many different areas and perspectives. It's a must-read! Nadirsyah Hosen Monash University, Australia

Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Based on the award-winning PBS documentary series, Ring of Fire is this first-person account of the adventures of two English brothers as they explore the astonishingly rich cultures of the Indonesian archipelago. Their fascinating odyssey began in 1972 with a 2,500-mile voyage through the fabled Spice Islands, in search of the Greater Bird of Paradise. A decade of further exploration followed, during which the brothers lived among the Asmat cannibals of Papua and the healers of Bali, came face-to-face with the man-eating dragons of Komodo, and encountered the elusive dream wanderers of Borneo. Amid impenetrable rain forests, erupting volcanoes and startling natural beauty, the brothers have captured on film and in words the story of one of the most captivating and intriguing explorations ever made.

Living the Global City
Author: John Eade
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134772424
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Politicians and academics alike have made globalization the key reference point for interpreting the 1990s. For many, globalization threatens both community and the nation-state. It appears to represent forces beyond human control. Living the Global City documents globalization's impact on everyday lives by drawing on research rather than rhetoric and arrives at a very different perspective. Living the Global City offers an analysis of globalization and global/local processes by focussing on specific issues and themes which include community, culture, milieu, socioscapes and sociospheres, microglobalization, poverty, ethnic identity and carnival. By advancing the debates which surround these issues through a redefinition of the terms in which they have been developed and engagement with the everyday lives of people in a global city, this book reveals how such key concepts as community, culture, class, poverty and identity can be reconceptualized in the context of global/local processes.

A Literary Mirror
Author: I . Nyoman Darma Putra
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004253637
Category : History
Languages : id
Pages : 392
Book Description
A Literary mirror is the first English-language work to comprehensively analyse Indonesian-language literature from Bali from a literary and cultural viewpoint. It covers the period from 1920 to 2000. This is an extremely rich field for research into the ways Balinese view their culture and how they respond to external cultural forces. This work complements the large number of existing studies of Bali and its history, anthropology, traditional literature, and the performing arts. A Literary Mirror is an invaluable resource for those researching twentieth-century Balinese authors who wrote in Indonesian. Until now, such writers have received very little attention in the existing literature. An appendix gives short biographical details of many significant writers and lists their work.

Collecting Kamoro
Author: Karen Jacobs
Publisher: Sidestone Press
ISBN: 9088900884
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
The story of ethnographic collecting is one of cross-cultural encounters. This book focuses on collecting encounters in the Kamoro region of Papua from the earliest collections made in 1828 until 2011. Exploring the links between representation and collecting, the author focuses on the creative and pragmatic agency of Kamoro people in these collecting encounters. By considering objects as visualizations of social relations, and as enactments of personal, social or historical narrative, this book combines filling a gap in the literature on Kamoro culture with an interest in broader questions that surround the nature of ethnographic collecting, representation, patronage and objectification.

Alternative Voices in Muslim Southeast Asia
Author: Norshahril Saat
Publisher: ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute
ISBN: 9814843814
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
According to some observers, Southeast Asian Islam is undergoing a conservative turn. This means voices that champion humanist, progressive or moderate ideas are located on the fringes of society. Is this assessment accurate for a region that used to be known for promoting the “smiling face of Islam”? Alternative Voices in Muslim Southeast Asia examines the challenges facing progressive voices in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore today. It examines their discourses, which delve into how multiculturalism and secularism are the way forward for the diverse societies of these three countries. Moreover, it analyses the avenues employed by these voices in articulating their views amidst the dominance of state and quasi-state religious officials who seek to restrict and discipline them. Contributors to the volume include scholars, activists and observers, some of whom are victims of repression and discrimination. While most of the chapters cover developments of the last decade, some of them go back to the previous century, capturing the emergence of modernist thinkers influenced by parallel movements in the Middle East and the wider region. Others respond to recent developments concerning Islam and Muslims in the three countries: the Pakatan Harapan coalition victory in the 2018 Malaysian election, the re-election of Joko Widodo as Indonesia’s president in 2019, and recent religious rulings passed in Singapore. Readers should come not only to reflect on the struggles faced by this group but also to appreciate the humanist traditions essential for the development of the societies of these countries in the midst of change.
