Swazey Thesis Committee Geoffrey White, Chairperson Alex Golub JonGoss © Kelli A. Swazey iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The word for "thank you" in Indonesian is literally translated as "to receive love," and in accepting the love and assistance of many over the course of this project lowe many debts. To the masyara/wt Indonesia in New Hampshire, I will be forever grateful that you welcomed me into your homes and lives, endured my constant questions, and have been so supportive of my project in general. I feel privileged to have eaten, worshipped, celebrated and mourned as a member of your community. Saya sungguh percaya selalu ada alasan lretilra Tuhan yang Maha Esa membawa orang Ire lrehidupan kita. Saya betul­ betul diberkati oleh Tuhan dengan lresempatan untuk bertemu banyak orang yang hebat dan penuh dengan iman yang kuat. Saya mendapat inspirasi dart kalian semua. lowe a special debt of gratitude to Pastor Robert Waworuntu, and Pastor Michael Lapian for including me in the activities of their churches and encouraging me to contribute to the story of the Indonesian community in NH, and the Jives of Minahasans Jiving far from home. I would also like to thank Pastor Lynn Opderbeeke and the members of the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Newington for allowing me to share in their relationship with their sister congregation. To Pastor Sandra Pontoh and Debbie Lapian, lowe a debt of the heart. You both have been not only excellent teachers but welcomed me in a bond of sisterhood that is a blessing far more valuable than the results of any research. Terima Kasih banyak atas persahabatan dan lrebijakan Ando. I'm not sure I will ever repay Keluarga Monareh for all they have done for me. As the very first family that ever sat for an interview, their help has been indispensable in locating interview subjects, and keeping me connected to the community no matter where I was located. Antonious and Ade, Saya sungguh mengarhai bantuan Ando. Thank you for welcoming me into your family. Many thanks also to Ibu Paula, Bapak Vicki and the whole Lumentut household in Manado, who went out of their way to facilitate my research in Minahasa and were extremely generous with their home and their time. My time in Manado was also enriched by the staff of the COTIM program who worked so hard to teach me the ins and outs of Bahasa Indonesia (and Bahasa Manado!). Research projects are not lone ventures; any academic work bears the traces of a community of colleagues and mentors who help to develop an idea into a polished work. I truly appreciate the advice and assistance of my committee members Dr. Alex Golub and Dr. Jon Goss, as well as my chair Dr. Geoff White, without whose help and encouragement this project would not have come to fruition. And as she is probably already aware, I never would have arrived at this destination if Dr. Deb Winslow hadn't started me on the journey. Finally, I would like to acknowledge the fmancial support of the National Science Foundation in making this project possible. To Mom, Jess and Osvaldo for believing in me no matter what. iv ABSTRACf This thesis investigates how individuals from Minahasa, a predominantly Christian region in North Sulawesi, use a Christian ideology to transpose the compartmentalization of national, ethnic and religious identities used in Indonesia to manage diversity, making religious identity the transcendent principle of national and ethnic identification in transnational, multi-ethnic Indonesian churches in New England. Minahasans experience their ethnic identity as based in a Christian ontology, a model that exists in tension with the Indonesian national construction of the relationship between ethnicity, national identity and religious affiliation. This work considers how Minahasan identity construction has historically been located in relationships of Christianity that connected the region with the world beyond the Indonesian archipelago. This history enables Minahasans to realize a dream of religious nationalism in the United States, converging the Christian practices and beliefs that transmit pre-colonial forms Minahasan cultural identity with national identity in ways difficult to achieve within Indonesian borders. v Table of Contents ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ......................................................................iv ABSTRACT .........................................................................................v LIST OF FIGURES ..............................................................................vii LIST OF TRANSCRIPTION AND TRANSLATION SYMBOLS .......................viii CHAPTER I: Introduction ........................................................................... 1 CHAPfER 2: Minahasa Through History ...................................................... 11 Pre-colonial Configurations ............................................................. 16 Interference in Land and Leadership: Cultuurestelsel, Coffee and Cultural Change ............................................................22 Reaching out for the Gospel: Christianity in Minahasa ..............................26 Becoming Colonial Elites and the ''Light of Day" ....................................31 One of Many: Minahasa Through the Japanese Occupation and Independence .........................................................................36 Post-Independence influences: PERMESTA, Christianity under the New Order, and Decentralization ............................43 CHAPTER 3: Ethnicity, (Trans)nationalism and Community in Southern New Hampshire Indonesian Churches ...............................................51 Ethnic Identities ...........................................................................64 Socioeconomics and Class Concerns .................................................... 69 The Broader Social Field .................................................................73 Issues of Legality and Citizenship ......................................................80 CHAPfER 4: Minahasa and America: Concepts of the Foreign .....................................................................................

  • 1 1. PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Di Setiap Wilayah
    1. PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Di setiap wilayah Indonesia terdapat kebudayaan yang beragam dan memiliki nilai serta keunikannya sendiri, baik itu pakaian, bangunan rumah, tarian, alat musik hingga acara adat. Kebudayaan tersebut merupakan sebuah potensi dan aset yang tak ternilai harganya dan patut dijaga serta dilestarikan. Dewasa ini, pemerintah dan masyarakat setempat bergotong-royong mengupayakan pelestarian setiap keberagaman budaya, seperti dengan membuka museum budaya, menjadikannya sebagai alternatif destinasi wisata budaya, melakukan upaya promosi hingga mengemasnya dalam sebuah rangkaian festival budaya nasional bertaraf internasional. Di samping itu, selain menjadi bentuk upaya pelestarian, hal ini berguna untuk meningkatkan daya tarik wisata yang berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan sektor ekonomi dan pariwisata wilayah tersebut. Namun, di tengah gencarnya upaya pelestarian yang dilakukan di berbagai wilayah Indonesia, nyatanya masih terdapat wilayah dengan potensi yang belum dikelola, dikembangkan serta dipromosikan dengan maksimal. Karimunjawa adalah sebuah wilayah kepulauan di Laut Jawa, tepatnya sekitar 90 km ke arah barat laut Kota Jepara, Kabupaten Jepara, Provinsi Jawa Tengah. Wilayah ini dikenal sebagai salah satu destinasi wisata pantai dan laut yang sangat indah karena wilayah kepulauan ini dikelilingi oleh lautan luas yang kaya akan biota laut. Selain itu, terdapat banyak wisata darat yang memiliki daya tarik tersendiri bagi wisatawan, seperti makam sunan-sunan, hutan bakau, Bukit Love dan lain-lain. Dengan kekayaan alam yang ada, Karimunjawa memiliki daya tarik wisata kelas dunia. Wisata alam dan bahari Karimunjawa menjadi wisata yang lebih dikenal karena merupakan pilihan wisata utama yang dipromosikan oleh berbagai biro wisata sebagai konten promosi jasanya kepada calon konsumen. Informasi wisata tersebut juga disebarkan oleh wisatawan melalui 1 Universitas Kristen Petra perbincangan dari mulut ke mulut hingga cuplikan perjalanan di media sosial berupa tulisan blog, unggahan foto serta vlog.

  • Orientalism and the Rhetoric of the Family: Javanese Servants in European Household Manuals and Children's Fiction1 Elsbeth L
    O rientalism and the Rhetoric of the Family: Javanese Servants in European H ousehold Manuals and C hildren' s F iction1 Elsbeth Locher-Scholten Of all dominated groups in the former colonies, domestic servants were the most "sub­ altern." Silenced by the subservient nature of their work and the subordinated social class they came from, Indonesian or Javanese servants in the former Dutch East-Indies were neither expected nor allowed to speak for themselves. Neither did they acquire a voice through pressures in the labor market, as was the case with domestic servants in twentieth- century Europe.2 Because of the large numbers of Indonesian servants, the principle of supply and demand functioned to their disadvantage. For all these reasons, it is impossible to present these servants' historical voices and experiences directly from original source material. What we can do is reconstruct fragments of their social history from circumstantial evi­ dence (censuses). Moreover, in view of the quantity of fictional sources and the growing interest in the history of colonial mentalities, we can analyze the Dutch narratives which chronicle the colonizer-colonized relationship. It is possible to reconstruct pictures of Indo­ nesian servants by decoding these representations, although we should keep in mind that * A first draft of this article was presented to the Ninth Berkshire Conference of the History of Women, Vassar College, June 1993.1 want to thank the audience as well as Sylvia Vatuk, Rosemarie Buikema, Frances Gouda, Berteke Waaldijk and the anonymous reviewers of this journal for their useful comments on earlier drafts. 2 Since the Vassar historian Lucy Maynard Salmon published the first study of domestic service in the United States in 1890, the history of American and European domestic service has become a well-documented field of historical analysis.

  • Modul I – Pengertian Dan Kriteria Cagar Budaya
    PENGANTAR A. Latar Belakang Undang-Undang Republik Indonesia Nomor 11 tahun 2010 tentang Cagar Budaya, terutama pada Bab VI Bagian Kesatu pasal 28, 29, dan pasal 30 mengamanatkan perlunya dilakukan pendaftaran sebagai bagian dari proses penyusunan Register Nasional. Penyusunan Register Nasional merupakan upaya penting untuk mengetahui jumlah kekayaan Cagar budaya secara nasional. Sehubungan dengan hal tersebut dilakukan pendaftaran sebagai langkah awal dalam pencatatan Objek yang akan diusulkan sebagai Cagar Budaya kepada Pemerintah Kabupaten/Kota atau perwakilan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia di luar negeri. Sejalan dengan pelaksanaan otonomi daerah, kegiatan pendaftaran menjadi tanggung jawab Pemerintah Kabupaten/Kota. Lebih lanjut agar pelaksanaan pendaftaran dapat berjalan secara terpadu antara Pemerintah Pusat dan Daerah maka perlu disusun sistem dan jejaring pendaftaran Cagar Budaya yang tepat dan berkesinambungan. Guna mempersiapkan sistem dan jejaring tersebut, perlu dipersiapkan sumber daya manusia (SDM) yang mampu melakukan pendaftaran Cagar Budaya sesuai dengan ketentuan yang berlaku. Sebagai tahap awal dalam mempersiapkan tenaga pendaftar, dibutuhkan SDM yang memiliki pengetahuan dan keterampilan yang memadai tentang Cagar Budaya. Menindaklanjuti hal tersebut, dirasakan perlu tenaga pelatih pendaftaran Cagar Budaya, khususnya di tingkat provinsi. Pencapaian kemampuan tenaga pendaftar Cagar Budaya memerlukan bahan ajar berupa modul bagi tenaga pelatih pendaftaran dan tenaga pendaftar Cagar Budaya. B. Tujuan Pembelajaran Tujuan Pembelajaran Umum Setelah mengikuti pelatihan ini diharapkan peserta pelatihan petugas pendaftar mampu: 1. Memahami pengertian Cagar Budaya. 2. Memahami proses dan prosedur pendaftaran Cagar Budaya. 3. Mampu mengimplementasikan hal-hal yang berkaitan dengan kegiatan pendaftaran Cagar Budaya. Tujuan Pembelajaran Khusus Setelah mengikuti pelatihan ini diharapkan peserta pelatihan petugas pendaftar mampu: 1. Menjadi petugas pendaftar Cagar Budaya yang kompeten.

  • Morphostructure Control Towards the Development of Mahawu Volcanic Complex, North Sulawesi
    Indonesian Journal of Geology, Vol. 7 No. 1 March 2012: 39-54 Morphostructure Control Towards the Development of Mahawu Volcanic Complex, North Sulawesi Kontrol Morfostruktur Terhadap Perkembangan Kompleks Gunung Api Mahawu, Sulawesi Utara S. PoedjoPrajitno Centre for Geological Survey, Geological Agency, Jln. Diponegoro No. 57 Bandung, Indonesia 40122 AbstrAct The studied area, situated in northeastern part of North Sulawesi Arm, is dominantly occupied by the Mahawu, Linau, Tompusu, and Kasurutan volcanic rocks. Using remote sensing data, such as landsat image, black and white panchromatic aerial photograph, and IFSAR image, morphology-origin unit and morphology lineament can be interpreted. Four morphology-origin units, those are Mahawu Volcano Complex, Intra-montane Plain structure, Linau Volcano Complex, and Lacustrine Plain are recognized. Furthermore, morphological lineament pattern was statistically processed to find out the general stress direction in the area to determine the probability of the structural morphology occurrence in the Mahawu Volcano Complex. The result shows that generally the development pattern of volcanic cones are irregular, except the Mahawu Volcano Complex showing a linear pattern. This lineament pattern is interpreted as a NW - SE fault pattern controlling the rise of magma. At least, two tectonic and two eruption periods occurred regularly at different time from the Quaternary age till the present. Keywords: morphostructure, Mahawu Volcano cone, fault, lineament, magma, North Sulawesi Arm Sari Daerah penelitian, yang terletak di bagian timur laut Lengan Utara Sulawesi, didominasi oleh batuan vulkanik hasil kegiatan Gunung Api Mahawu, Linau, Tompusu, dan Kasurutan. Dengan menggunakan data inderaan jauh, yakni citra landsat, foto udara pankromatis hitam-putih, dan citra IFSAR, satuan bentukan- asal dan kelurusan morfologi ditafsirkan.

Honolulu: University of Hawai’i Press, 2005, ix + 179 pp. ISBN 0824828593. Price: USD 52.00 (hardback). ANDREA ACRI Complemented by several illustrations, this monograph presents itself as a study of Balinese mysticism based upon the paintings of I Ketut Budiana and I Gusti Nyoman Mirdiana, two accomplished contemporary Balinese artists. However, the title only partly reflects the content of the book, and may fail to attract the attention it deserves from a wider scholarly audience. Stephen’s work indeed offers an innovative, ground-breaking interpretation of the complex phenomenon of Balinese religion. Taking the artwork as her point of departure, the author draws on contemporary Balinese practices as well as ancient texts, thus initiating a wide-ranging analysis bringing together disciplines such as anthropology, religious studies and philology. Her analy- sis is not limited to the modern period, but attempts to redefine a mystical and philosophical tradition going back several centuries that ‘is not owed to, and predates, twentieth-century reformist efforts to realign Balinese religion with Indian Hinduism or introduce Hindu devotional religion’ (p. 27). This tradition, as she points out, is much more complex than most scholars have previously assumed.

  • THE STUDY of LINGUISTIC on MINAHASA ETHNIC VOCAL MUSIC Maikel B.G
    THE STUDY OF LINGUISTIC ON MINAHASA ETHNIC VOCAL MUSIC Maikel B.G. Sanger Abstrack Some research agree that music is a language, both of which use sound media. The rhythm of language also allows the same rhythm of music for a particular culture language. The Minahasa ethnic group has a diverse array of cultural traditions such as language and culture. This ethnic has a series of language types with each accent or a distinctive intonation that is said to be unique. On the other hand, its distinctive singing tradition is also very united with the people who live in it. If a typical accent is part of the Minahasa language language and the distinctive singing tradition is part of the Minahasa culture, can both be linked? Is the Minahasa way of singing influenced by the accent of the language? By looking at these problems, the researcher wanted to give an idea of how the language relation by way of singing of Minahasa people through the title of Linguistic Review on Minahasa Vocal Music. To answer the problem, the researcher uses the C. Dalhaus method of formal analysis: explains the structure of a work in terms of function and relationship between sections and elements, energetic interpretation: relates to the phase of movement or stretch of the tension, gestalt analysis: view the work as overall, hermeneutics: the interpretation of music in the context of an emotional statement or an external meaning. The research titled Linguistic Review of Minahasa Ethnic Vocal Music is a multi-disciplinary research because it will discuss two different disciplines of language discipline and music science.

  • The Minahasan Languages = De Minahasische Talen
    The Minahasan languages by Nicolaus Adriani translated by David Mead 2020 Sulang Language Data and Working Papers: Translations from the Dutch, no. 24 Sulawesi Language Alliance http://sulang.org/ SulangTrans024-v1 LANGUAGES Subject language : Tombulu, Tondano, Tonsea, Tonsawang, Tontemboan Language of materials : English DESCRIPTION The author begins this paper with an enumeration of the ten languages spoken within the geographical boundaries of the Minahasan Residency located at the northern tip of Celebes (Sulawesi). Thereafter he concentrates on the five Minahasan languages proper, discussing the basis first for their inclusion in a Philippine language group, and second for their internal division into two groups, one comprising Tombulu’, Tonsea’ and Tondano, the other Tontemboan and Tonsawang. This is followed by a lengthy review of Tontemboan literature, including synopses of a number of folktales. The author considered all five Minahasan languages to be threatened, and closes with an appeal for similar work to be carried out in the other languages. A bibliography comprehensively lists previously published works concerning the Minahasan languages. SOURCE Adriani, N. 1925. De Minahasische talen.
