Traditional Woven Textile Traditional Woven Textiles: Tradition and Identity Construction in the ‘New State’ of Brunei Darussalam. Siti Norkhalbi Haji Wahsalfelah BA Education (Hons) Universiti Brunei Darussalam MA University of Durham This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Social and Cultural Studies Discipline of Anthropology and Sociology 2005 ABSTRACT Since its independence in 1984, politicians and nationalists in Brunei Darussalam have appealed to traditions in their efforts to create a national identity based on Brunei Darussalam’s national philosophy, ‘Malay Islamic Monarchy’. Weaving is one of the traditions related to Brunei traditional culture, thus traditional textile is used to construct national identity. This study focuses on the role played by powerful institutions in the creation of new tradition in order to foster national awareness in the ‘new state’ of Brunei Darussalam and I examine how traditional textiles are incorporated into the project of nation building. In Bruneian society, traditional woven cloths have multiple roles whose meanings vary according to the situation in which the traditional cloth is utilized. This research explores the significance of traditional textiles in Brunei Darussalam, focusing on the consumption of locally woven textiles in its traditions and the relationships to the expression and construction of identity. Since Islam came to Brunei Darussalam, it has become one of the predominant markers of identity of the Malays. This study analyse the influence of Islam in the production and consumption of traditional textile in Brunei Darussalam. The continuity of the production and consumption of traditional woven textile in Brunei Darussalam is very much dependent on its significant in the traditions of Brunei society as a whole. In order to prove this, this study focuses its investigation upon the production and uses of traditional textiles in the social customs of Malay society in Brunei Darussalam. Traditional woven textiles are employed to construct social identity in the reproduction of distinction. Traditional textiles are also offered to signify privilege and power. I examine how traditional textile is being used to distinguish social status and political prominence, denote offices, and display wealth and prestige. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgments v List of Map vii List of Tables vii List of Plates viii Glossary xiii Chapter 1 Creating Tradition in Contemporary Brunei Darussalam Introduction 1 The Contextualisation of Textiles 3 The Notion of Tradition 4 The Conceptual Entity of Tradition in Brunei Darussalam. 7 Textiles and Identity 9 The Process of Identification 10 Textiles and Nationalism 14 Transformation and Continuity 16 Methodology and Personal Position 17 Organisation of the Thesis 23 Chapter 2 Locating the Scene: Brunei Darussalam in Brief Introduction 26 Physical Features 26 Official Language 27 Economy 28 Historical Trajectories 28 Ethnic Composition in Brunei Darussalam 33 The Conceptualisation of ‘Malayness’ in the Context of the Brunei Darussalam Situation. 35 Social Organisation 38 System of Kinship and Marriage 39 Political Structure 40 Institutional Structure of Religion 54 Conclusion 55 Chapter 3 Globalisation and Islamisation: Interacting Influences in the Transformation of Modes of Attire.

  • 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.)

Ipsos editions April 2015 © 2015 – Ipsos | 2 Guide Ipsos Flair: Understand to anticipate The world economy and relative weights are changing and our companies are willing to develop their business in increasingly important markets: Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Russia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Vietnam… But these countries are unevenly familiar to international firms and there is the risk to simply project outdated stereotypes, so our customers really need information about: - The country values and mood, at a specific time, - The influence of history, religion and culture, - Their vision of the future, their ambitions and desires, their ideals. - Their relation to consumption and brand image So this is why Ipsos Flair was created in the first place: in order to demonstrate the originality and sharpness of Ipsos, because « Flair » is about instinct and intuition. It is the ability to capture the mood, to perceive the right direction, to know when to act… It is also another way of looking, one that considers survey results as sociological symptoms to understand the real relationship between people and everything around them: brands, ads, media… Ipsos is uniquely positioned around five major specializations: marketing; customer & employee satisfaction; media and advertising; public opinion research; and survey management. 3 | By bringing together these diverse, yet complementary, perspectives, we can explore the many different facets of an individual, be it a consumer, a citizen, a spectator, or an employee. France was the pilot country in 2005, followed by Italy in 2010, then China in 2012.
