  • Reiterating Indonesian National Identity in the Globalized World Through a New Romantic Movement
    UGM Digital Press Proceeding of ASIC 2018 2 Social Sciences and Humanities (2018) : 105-110 American Studies International Conference (ASIC) 2018 Reiterating Indonesian National Identity in the Globalized World through a New Romantic Movement Rahmawan Jatmiko Department of Intercultural Studies, Universitas Gadjah Mada. Indonesia. e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This article discusses the possibility of re-evoking and invigorating romantic spirits to reiterate Indonesian national identity. This commences from the fact that despite its comparatively young age, Indonesia has experienced a number of heroic and romantic struggles, notable in our national history; for instance, the “national awakening movement” Boedi Oetomo in 1908, which became the first modern symbol of national struggle in Indonesia, the Sumpah Pemuda in 1928, which instilled in the youth's mind the three factors in common as our national identity, which binds our multi-cultural existence and experiences i.e. the unity of territory, language, and nation; andth the third is Indonesian Declaration of Independence, 17 of August 1945. This study starts from the assumption that those three symbols of struggle and identity are imprinted with romantic spirits, i.e. the sentimental feelings and emotions, which are no longer dealing with the worldly and materialistic considerations. In this discussion, one might question whether Indonesia has ever experienced any romantic movement as what European countries and America had in the end of the 18th century, yet that might not be so critical question in this case. Instead, what might be considered more important is another question such as, “do we need that kind of movement nowadays in order to clearly pronounce our identity?” By careful readings, observations and interpretations based on historiography and other references, this article sees that an attempt to give birth to our own Romanticism might be feasible as a good solution to rebuild our nationalism, since it Keywordsalso deals with recognizing and recalling our lost identity.

  • Politicians Who Love to Sing and Politicians Who Detest Singing
    CHAPTER TEN POLITICIANS WHO LOVE TO SING AND POLITICIANS WHO DETEST SINGING Kees van Dijk Introduction It is difficult for me to imagine Queen Beatrix or Queen Elizabeth bursting into an evergreen during or at the end of a public function. I can envision former Dutch Prime Minister, Jan Peter Balkenende, or George W. Bush singing hymns in a Protestant choir, but them joining a karaoke session passes beyond the bounds of my imagination. It is equally difficult for me to depict Gerhard Schröder, Tony Blair or Jacques Chirac turning a ban- quet in a singing session. And how about the then American Defense Secretary, Donald H. Rumsfeld, singing My way while he is having diner in a restaurant? Prominent European and American politicians do not strike me as persons who make a hobby of singing popular songs in public. They go to bars and restaurants, but not to karaoke establishments. Socialist leaders may break into militant songs for sentimental reasons or as part of the political ritual, but when they do so they often appear uncomfortable and give the impression not to remember the lyrics. The 2003 annual con- ference of the British Labour Party held in Bournemouth confirms this impression. For the first time in years the conference was concluded by the party members who attended the conference singing in unison the militant song The red flag created by an Irishman, Jim Connell, in 1889. The tradition of closing Labour conferences with The red flag was aban- doned by Blair in 1999 after he could be seen struggling to sing it.

Dr. Sofyan Nomor 1, Medan, Indonesia Abstract: Humans made up of different races, tribes, nations and religions. Countries Indonesia consist of various ethnicities or tribes, so that Indonesia has a philosophy of life, unity in diversity, which means although different but still united. As a result of the diversity of ethnic groups in Indonesia is the frequent intermarriage. This intermarriage gave issue the cultural unification between the male and the female. One of the unification of culture studied is the marriage between Karonese and Javanese in the District of Namorambe, Deli Serdang regency - North Sumatra. The majority of people in the village Namorambe are the Karo tribe, and they were originally occupied this area. Assimilation means a process of unification of different cultures with the aim to reduce the difference between the two of them and achieve mutual interests. In contrast to acculturation goes naturally or organically, the process of assimilation to walk with their real efforts of both cultures holder. As we know, intermarriage is one example of the union of two cultures within the scope of the individual. By marrying people of different tribes with us means, we are ready to accept all differences including cultural differences.
