Humiliation and Education in a Dani Modernity
Dreams Made Small: Humiliation and Education in a Dani Modernity Jenny Munro A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The Australian National University December 2009 **This electronic version has been edited to reduce digital size and is not the same as the printed version or the full electronic version with images** This thesis is the original work of the author except where otherwise acknowledged. Jenny Munro Department of Anthropology Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies The Australian National University i Abstract Indigenous youth from the Baliem Valley area of Papua, Indonesia aspire to be part of ‘progress’ ( kemajuan ) in their isolated region but are constrained by colonial conditions that favour migrant Indonesians. In this thesis, indigenous Dani students leave the tense social and political setting of highlands Papua in order, they say, to broaden their horizons in North Sulawesi, a relatively prosperous, peaceful province four days west of Papua by passenger ship. Based on 16 months of fieldwork conducted in 2005-2006 and 2009, this thesis explores Dani efforts to gain university degrees and obtain ‘modern’ skills and capabilities in a tangled web of racial stigma, prejudice, institutionalized corruption, and intense relationships with other Papuan highlanders. It follows Dani graduates back to the Baliem Valley to see what results they create from a university degree. This exploration of the personal histories and life chances of stigmatized individuals sheds light on Papuan nationalism, the everyday production and negotiation of racial hierarchies, and how affect, in this case humiliation, fuels the formation of a particular vision of identity and the future. -

Governing New Guinea New
Governing New Guinea New Guinea Governing An oral history of Papuan administrators, 1950-1990 Governing For the first time, indigenous Papuan administrators share their experiences in governing their country with an inter- national public. They were the brokers of development. After graduating from the School for Indigenous Administrators New Guinea (OSIBA) they served in the Dutch administration until 1962. The period 1962-1969 stands out as turbulent and dangerous, Leontine Visser (Ed) and has in many cases curbed professional careers. The politi- cal and administrative transformations under the Indonesian governance of Irian Jaya/Papua are then recounted, as they remained in active service until retirement in the early 1990s. The book brings together 17 oral histories of the everyday life of Papuan civil servants, including their relationship with superiors and colleagues, the murder of a Dutch administrator, how they translated ‘development’ to the Papuan people, the organisation of the first democratic institutions, and the actual political and economic conditions leading up to the so-called Act of Free Choice. Finally, they share their experiences in the UNTEA and Indonesian government organisation. Leontine Visser is Professor of Development Anthropology at Wageningen University. Her research focuses on governance and natural resources management in eastern Indonesia. Leontine Visser (Ed.)

From Paradise Lost to Promised Land: Christianity and the Rise of West
School of History & Politics & Centre for Asia Pacific Social Transformation Studies (CAPSTRANS) University of Wollongong From Paradise Lost to Promised Land Christianity and the Rise of West Papuan Nationalism Susanna Grazia Rizzo A Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) of the University of Wollongong 2004 “Religion (…) constitutes the universal horizon and foundation of the nation’s existence. It is in terms of religion that a nation defines what it considers to be true”. G. W. F. Hegel, Lectures on the of Philosophy of World History. Abstract In 1953 Aarne Koskinen’s book, The Missionary Influence as a Political Factor in the Pacific Islands, appeared on the shelves of the academic world, adding further fuel to the longstanding debate in anthropological and historical studies regarding the role and effects of missionary activity in colonial settings. Koskinen’s finding supported the general view amongst anthropologists and historians that missionary activity had a negative impact on non-Western populations, wiping away their cultural templates and disrupting their socio-economic and political systems. This attitude towards mission activity assumes that the contemporary non-Western world is the product of the ‘West’, and that what the ‘Rest’ believes and how it lives, its social, economic and political systems, as well as its values and beliefs, have derived from or have been implanted by the ‘West’. This postulate has led to the denial of the agency of non-Western or colonial people, deeming them as ‘history-less’ and ‘nation-less’: as an entity devoid of identity. But is this postulate true? Have the non-Western populations really been passive recipients of Western commodities, ideas and values? This dissertation examines the role that Christianity, the ideology of the West, the religion whose values underlies the semantics and structures of modernisation, has played in the genesis and rise of West Papuan nationalism. -
Malay Garden As Tourism Product in Malaysia
Malay Garden as Tourism Product in Malaysia Ahmad Zamil Zakaria, Ismail Hafiz Salleh, Mohd Sabrizaa Abd Rashid Faculty of Architecture, Planning & Surveying, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Seri Iskandar Campus, 32610 Perak, Malaysia [email protected] Abstract This study introduces the concept of Malay garden design in the eyes of tourists, particularly from the inside and outside the country. The objectives are to explain the relationship between cultural tourism and cultural landscape and how to produce the concept of landscape design as a new tourism product to become tourist attractions in Malaysia by using the old Malay manuscripts and an observation to the old houses of the Malay community in Peninsular Malaysia. Finally, researchers are ready to offer ideas to the planning and development of new tourism products based on local culture especially the Malays culture.

This uniqueness, which could be the strongest features, have brought significant cultural value and influencies to the development of building architecture. Gable horn, part of gable-finials, known as traditional roof decorative element has architectural similarities in the broad area coverage. Not only in traditional building of the archipelago, but also found strong evidence has similarities with decorative elements used on gable-finials in the region surrounding Astronesia such as; South East Asia, Malanesia, Micronesia, Polynesia and Madagascar. This has made identifying characteristic strong decorative elements. Gable horn become one hallmark of traditional architecture Astronesia region. Values contained not only from an architectural point of view, but can develop in accordance with their respective regional culture.

Rethinking the Rituals in the Malay House
Sustainable Development and Planning VIII 249 Rethinking the rituals in the Malay House M. F. Kholid, S. S. Zubir & R. Ab. Rahman Centre of Studies for Architecture, Faculty of Architecture, Planning and Surveying, Universiti Teknologi MARA Selangor, Malaysia Abstract The fact that the Malay rituals are practiced in daily life, rather than symbolically performed, insinuates the strong correlation of the traditional principle. The everyday life is a point of reference. It indicates the domestic sphere where the common and ordinary are projected, advocating the significance of dwelling as an artifact that spatially frames the rituals; in this case the traditional house where its evolution into modern dwelling acknowledges the multiple layering of the rituals’ perception. This paper intends to analyze the performance of rituals and how these are spatially practiced in the modern context. Eleven traditional houses were investigated based on their interior layout. The ‘Kampung Boy’ series by Lat were used as a pictorial evidence of traditional lifestyle, reflecting the layout of the houses. Suggested embedded rituals, which are still significant in the present day are then represented in three manifestoes where the modern Malay house in Kuala Lumpur acts as the background and a single Malay family becomes the characters. These manifestoes were finally developed as critical tools and tested into three projects of low, medium and high-rise development. The dichotomy between traditionalist, idealist, and realist gave emergence to a new paradigm towards the representation of rituals in the modern Malay house. In fact, the projects were counterproposal of the existing housing scheme (particularly in Malaysia) where the notions of rituals altered the banality of standardization. -
Christianity, Islam, and Nationalism in Indonesia
Christianity, Islam, and Nationalism in Indonesia As the largest Muslim country in the world, Indonesia is marked by an extraordinary diversity of languages, traditions, cultures, and religions. Christianity, Islam, and Nationalism in Indonesia focuses on Dani Christians of West Papua, providing a social and ethnographic history of the most important indigenous population in the troubled province. It presents a captivating overview of the Dani conversion to Christianity, examining the social, religious, and political uses to which they have put their new religion. Farhadian provides the first major study of a highland Papuan group in an urban context, which distinguishes it from the typical highland Melanesian ethnography. Incorporating cultural and structural approaches, the book affords a fascinating look into the complex relationship among Christianity, Islam, nation making, and indigenous traditions. Based on research over many years, Christianity, Islam, and Nationalism in Indonesia offers an abundance of new material on religious and political events in West Papua. The book underlines the heart of Christian–Muslim rivalries, illuminating the fate of religion in late-modern times. Charles E.
