Adams Beloit College In InsularSoutheast Asia, indigenousreligions are orientedmore towardspractice than philosophy. Geertz's (1973:177) observationsconcerning religion in Bali generallyhold true for otherautochthonous religions of the Indonesianarchipelago: "Beyonda minimallevel there is almostno interestin doctrine...Thestress is on orthopraxy,not orthodoxy." Accordingly,discussions of indigenousnotions of the soul in insularSoutheast Asia rarelycenter on philosophicaldoctrine. Rather,local practitionerstend to emphasizeritual obligations to souls at variouspoints in time, enumeratingthe requisiterites to aid souls in theirafterlife journeys (cf. Fox 1973; Weinstock1987). This essay is broadlyconcerned with the relationshipbetween such amorphouspractice-centered indigenous conceptions of soul and subsequently- introducedChristian metaphysical propositions. Recently, Indonesianistsstudying processes of religious transformationhave promptedus to recognizethe dynamicinterplay between world religions, national politics, and indigenousreligions (cf. Atkinson1983; Kipp and Rodgers 1987). Atkinson(1983), for instance,has elegantlydemonstrated how the constructionof the CentralSulawesi Wana religion is rootedin a dialoguewith both world religions and nationalistIndonesian civil religion. In a similarvein, Hoskins(1987) illustrateshow the redefinitionof Sumbanesespirit worship as a "religion"resulted from exposure to the doctrineof the Christianchurch and the Indonesiangovernment. On Sumba, what was once a systemof ritualpractices and regulationsbecame transformed into a systemof beliefs. Takingsuch notions of religionsin dialogueas a startingpoint, this essay examines indigenousand Christian conceptions of the soul amongthe Sa'danToraja of upland Sulawesi. WhileHoskins and Atkinson give moreattention to the influenceof world religionsand nationalpolitics on local belief systems,my majorfocus in this paper is on the other side of the dialogue. That is, I am particularlyconcerned with the ways in whichChristian Torajans incorporate and reformulate indigenous conceptions of the soul. Ranger(1987:183) has stressedthe ironicaspect of AfricanChristianity, notingthat the dialecticbetween local religionsand Christianity evolves in ways that confoundboth missionary and indigenous expectations. In this essayI examinehow, for ChristianTorajans, indigenous and Christian notions of soul not only coexist, but intermingleand at times compete. 55 56 ETHNOLOGY This essay begins with a discussionof the indigenousTorajan conception of the soul. One shouldnote, however,that several factors have encouraged a moreformal elaborationof their notions of soul. These factors includeTorajan exposure to doctrine-centeredworld religions, the Indonesiangovernment's 1969 recognitionof TorajanAluk to dolo as an official religion,and the queriesof anthropologistsand touristsvisiting the Torajahighlands. After examining indigenous notions of the soul, I contrastthese with the Dutch ReformedChurch's vision of the soul. The final section addresseslay ChristianTorajans' approach to the concept,and suggeststhat there is a discernablepattern to those indigenousideas about the soul thatpersist. ETHNOGRAPHICBACKGROUND The Sa'danToraja people are primarilywet-rice farmers inhabiting mountainous TanaToraja Regency in the provinceof SouthSulawesi, Indonesia. Most Torajans speak both Tae' Toraja, an Austronesianlanguage closely relatedto other South Sulawesilanguages (Mills 1975),and the nationallingua franca of BahasaIndonesia. In a multi-ethnicnation of 185 million people, the Torajaare a minoritygroup numberingapproximately 350,000. Torajansociety is hierarchicallyorganized on the basisof age, descent,occupation, and wealth. Traditionallythere were three basic ranks: the aristocracy(to parengnge); commoners(to buda, to sama);and serfs or slaves (kaunan).1Today slaveryis illegal andthe topic of rankcan be sensitive. Before the Dutchcolonial incursion into the Sulawesihighlands, Torajans resided in scatteredmountaintop households, maintaining social ties throughan elaborate systemof ritualexchanges (Nooy-Palm 1979, 1986;Koubi 1982). Forthese Torajans the religious,political, and agricultural worlds were integratedand bound together by a systemof ritualpractices known as Alukto Dolo (Waysof the PeopleBefore).2 It was not untilDutch forces conquered the highlandsin 1906that Torajans were united under a single political authority. With the upheavalcaused by the expanding activities of Dutch colonialistsand missionariescame the gradualcoalescence of Torajanethnic identity(Bigalke 1981). Today, over 80 per cent of Torajanshave convertedto Christianity:only 11 per cent of the populationremain faithful to Aluk to Dolo (KantorStatistik 1983). INDIGENOUSCONCEPTIONS OF THE SOUL For adherentsof aluk to dolo, the natureof the soul is rarely a topic of metaphysicaldiscourse (Crystal and Yamashita 1987). My inquiriesabout indigenous notionsof the soul often left my alukto dolo friendsperplexed. They cautionedme that neitherthe Englishword soul nor the Indonesianterm arwah could be easily translatedinto the Sa'danToraja language. Whatemerged from our conversations was a clusterof conceptsassociated with different states of the life force. The Toraja termsmost oftenvolunteered in suchdiscussions were sumanga ', penaa, bombo,and deata. I examineeach of these conceptsbelow. THE DISCOURSEOF SOULSIN TANA TORAJA 57 Sumanga': AnimatingForce The termsumanga' roughly translates as soul, spiritor consciousnessand is closely related to the Indonesianword semangat(Tammu and van der Veen 1972:578). Sumanga'is presentin all living things, althougha suddenfright may promptit to flee or a malevolententity may appropriate the sumanga'of others. Whendescribing an unexpectedshock, I often heardTorajans proclaim, "My sumanga' flew off," or "His sumanga' left" (masso sumanga'na', pa'de sumanga ). As Coville (1988:155) observes, sumanga' has a bird-like quality, prone to flying off. The term sumanga' also appears in the ubiquitous phrase kurre sumanga', which is the standardway of expressingthanks. Literally,kurre sumanga' translates as to call the animatingforce (as one calls chickens). This phraseis commonin the old alukto dolo litaniessuch as the PassombaTedong, where it is usedto hail the ancestors(van der Veen 1966). Accordingto Bigalke(1981:200), Torajan head-taking was probablyonce linkedto the notionof enhancingthe powerof sumanga',which was thoughtto reside in the head. Bigalke (1981:201) furtherhypothesizes that the importanceof sumanga' declined after the seventeenthcentury, when shifting political alliances led to a dramaticlimitation of the numberof groupsfrom which it was acceptableto take heads. In contrast,Downs (1955) and Needham(1976) have questionedclassic Indonesianliterature which interpretshead-hunting as a questfor "soulsubstance." Whateverthe case, it is clear that for Torajanstoday, sumanga'is more a vague notionof animatingforce thanit is a powerfulconcept on whichaction is based.3 Penaa: Soul of the Living By far the morecommon gloss for soul or life-forcein the Kesu' areaof Torajais the termpenaa. Penaa closelyresembles sumanga', although it carrieswith it a sense of connectionto

  • Tourism in Southeast Asia
    and parnwell hitchcock, king Tourism is one of the major forces for economic, social and cultural change in the Southeast Asian region and, as a complex multidimensional phenomenon, has attracted increasing scholarly attention during the past TOURISM two decades from researchers from a broad range of disciplines – not least anthropology, sociology, economics, political science, history, development IN SOUTHEAST ASIA studies and business/management. It has also commanded the attention of challenges and new directions policy-makers, planners and development practitioners. However, what has been lacking for many years is a volume that analyses tourism from the major disciplinary perspectives, considers major substantive themes of particular significance in the region (cultural IN TOURISM tourism, ecotourism, romance/sex tourism, etc.), and pays attention to such important conceptual issues as the interaction between local and global, the role of the state in identity formation, authenticity, the creation of ‘tradition’, and sustainability. Such a thorough analysis is offered by Tourism in Southeast Asia, which provides an up-to-date exploration of the state of tourism development and associated issues in one of the world’s most dynamic tourism destinations. The volume takes a close look at many of the challenges facing Southeast Asian tourism at a critical stage of transition and transformation, and following a recent series of crises and disasters. Building on and advancing the path-breaking Tourism in South-East ASIA SOUTHEAST Asia, produced by the same editors in 1993, it adopts a multidisciplinary approach and includes contributions from some of the leading researchers on tourism in Southeast Asia, presenting a number of fresh perspectives.

    Oral presentation 36 Twinning Programme: Learning from Horizontal Learning on Domestic Wastewater Treatment in Three Districts in South Sulawesi Wildan SETIABUDI1* 1 UNICEF Makassar Field Office, UNICEF Indonesia, Indonesia Keywords: faecal sludge management, safely managed sanitation, horizontal learning Indonesia is committed to achieve Sustainable Development Goals, including target on safe and sustainable sanitation. More than 97% districts in Indonesia rely on the off-site sanitation system, which needs chain-service from the septic-tanks to the domestic waste-water treatment (DWWTP). In South Sulawesi, only seven out of 24 cities/districts already have DWWTP, which were built with big investment from the national budget. However, there are lack of management capacity to operate them by city/districts after the facilities were handed over. Twinning programme is an information exchange programme through horizontal learning, initially developed by Indonesia’s Wastewater Operator Association (Forkalim) on off-site and on-site DWWT, by exercising mentor-mentee schematic in defined and agreed timeframe (Figure 1).

The process of assimilation formation occurs due to inter-ethnic communication mixing done continuously. This is an attempt to reduce cultural differences, such as language, gestures, non verbal, attitudes, beliefs, traits, values and mind orientation. The goal is to reduce communication distortion as an effort to prevent SARA (Ethnicity, Religion, Race, and Inter-group) conflict in South Sulawesi Province. The assimilation of inter-ethnic communication can lead to a new/mixed culture to prevent Ethnic, Religion, Race, Intergroup oriented conflict. The research method is done through qualitative paradigm with interpretative approach based on uniqueness and specification of study which can not be generalized. Data collection techniques were conducted through in-depth interviews and Focuss Group Discussion with religious leaders, community leaders, in Luwu Utara District and Tana Toraja. Reasons for Representative chose the location because there was direct contact between the ethnic groups that became the focus of this research. The process of communication assimilation stage between ethnic Toraja/Tionghoa and Bugis/Makassar ethnic is the first step of learning as inter-ethnic activity that adapt each other.
