Mixed Panels 189 euroseas 2015 . book of abstracts 3 keynotes Alarms of an Old Alarmist Benedict Anderson Have students of SE Asia become too timid? For example, do young researchers avoid studying the power of the Catholic Hierarchy in the Philippines, the military in Indonesia, and in Bangkok monarchy? Do sociologists and anthropologists fail to write studies of the rising ‘middle classes’ out of boredom or disgust? Who is eager to research the very dangerous drug mafias all over the place? How many track the spread of Western European, Russian, and American arms of all types into SE Asia and the consequences thereof? On the other side, is timidity a part of the decay of European and American universities? Bureaucratic intervention to bind students to work on what their state think is central (Terrorism/Islam)? Commercialism in the form of Business- men taking over university leadership? Senior professors force students to stay inside the walls of the Disciplines, and learn the unreadable (to citizens) argot of each? And what about the rising hegemony of ‘English’ around the world? Isn’t the consequence that the SE Asian scholars are pushed to write in this ugly prose not their own language, while at least in lazy UK and America competence in SEA languages gets worse? The Spirit of Indonesia: Rasa, Reason, Religion Ayu Utami History has shown that for centuries people of the now Indonesia’s archipelago lived in harmony despite their het- erogeneity. An “ethic of harmony” has been described by many scholars. Temples and old scripts prove syncretism between Hinduism, Buddhism and other beliefs. Their classical literatures and traditional daily life show a somehow contradicting mixture of monotheism and local spirituality. The Republik Indonesia’s state foundation and emblem confirm its spirit of unity in diversity. However, after the Reformasi we have seen an increasing trend of religious intolerance and violence in the name of God, parallel with global terrorism. The ethic of harmony is being contested by the modernist need for clarity, and ancient syncretism is being challenged by “modern dogmas”. Religion is no longer a traditional phenomena. The dog- matic strain of it survives very well in the digital era. In my opinion, Indonesia can no longer keep its harmony through syncretism and the ethic of harmony. Modern edu- cation have taught Indonesia’s new generation to demand “a sense of clarity”. Both old mechanism could not satisfy it due to their inherent lack of logical consistency. On the other hand, unfortunatelly, this desire for clarity can be fulfilled in a superficial level by dogmas and short texts of the now prevailing social and mass media. Indonesia still has spiritual assets to resist dogmatic views. It has proved a relatively smooth transition to democracy, especially if compared to the Arab Spring. The danger keeps lurking. As the ancient ethic of harmony is failing, the future resistance against dogmatism is not secularism per se, but critical thinking that opens itself to the yet unknown. I’d like to call it “critical spirituality”. I will narrate my opinion using also ghost stories, myths, personal history, lan- guage cases and social or mass media content. euroseas 2015 . book of abstracts 4 round tables Nikkei Round Table I: Towards Greater Regionalism in Southeast Asia Chair: Takehiko Koyanagi (Nikkei Asian Review) discussants: Maria Strasakova (Metropolitan University Prague), Sebastian Bobowski (Wroclaw University of Eco- nomics), Jeremy Grant (Financial Times), further discussants TBA Nikkei Round Table II: Myanmar’s Election Year: Challenges and Trajectories Chair: Gwen Robinson (Chulalongkorn University) discussants: Ardeth Thawnghmung (UMass Lowell), Kyaw Yin Hlaing (Center for Diversity and National Harmony), Marcus Brand (University of Vienna), Wolfram Schaffar (University of Vienna) Nikkei Round Table III: Political Trends in Southeast Asia Chair: Gwen Robinson (Chulalongkorn University) discussants: Duncan McCargo (University of Leeds), Nathan Quimpo (University of Tsukuba), Ardeth Thawngh- mung (UMass Lowell), Tuong Vu (University of Oregon), Gerry van Klinken (KITLV) Round Table: Southeast Asian Studies Is an Area-Oriented Endeavor or It Is Nothing Chair: Christoph Antweiler (University of Bonn) Participants: Henk Schulte Nordholt (KITLV), Rommel Curaming (Universiti Brunei Darussalam), Dayana Parvanova (Austrian Academy of Sciences), Vincent Houben (Humboldt University Berlin), Helmut Lukas (Austrian Academy of Sciences) euroseas 2015 . book of abstracts 5 euroseas film programme . southeast asia on screen 12. – 14.08.2015 | 14:00 | Auditorium Maximum Accompanying the EuroSEAS conference a daily film program of documentaries from and about Southeast Asia will take place in the Auditorium Maximum of the University of Vienna. The screenings focus on Indonesia (Wednesday), Thailand (Thursday), and Myanmar/Burma (Friday). The program will also provide a forum for the presentation of recent initiatives from and in these countries, like the “Yangon Film School” (Myanmar) and the “International People’s Tribunal 1965” (Indonesia). The EuroSEAS Film Programme is curated by Ascan Breuer (documentary film-maker and lecturer in film studies) and Rainer Einzenberger (University of Vienna). Wednesday, 12.08.2015 INDONESIA on Screen Last summer Indonesia elected its first president who is not a part of the military nomenclature of the overthrown regime. This is but one of many steps in the slow transition process to overcome the heritage of the dictatorship (1966- 1998). To discuss the societal changes on multiple levels, the films of “Trilogi Jawa” (Javanese Trilogy) by Vienna- based filmmaker Ascan Breuer will be presented and discussed: Over several years “Jakarta Disorder” (Trilogi Jawa II, 2013) observes the development of a grassroots movement of slum-dwellers that try to engage in the presidential election process. In “Riding My Tiger” (Trilogi Jawa III, 2014) the filmmaker makes the migration history of his own family of Chinese-Indonesian origin, a subject of discussion: Main topic of this film is the mass murder of 1965. Fifty years later Indonesia still isn’t coming to terms with that dark side of its past. But the survivors don’t want to keep quiet, and they plan to constitute a so-called people’s tribunal in The Hague. Two representatives of the IPT1965, Sri Tunruang and Artien Utrecht, are invited to discuss their efforts. — Mass Grave (2002), 26 min, by Lexy Rambadeta >>> AUSTRIAN PREMIERE <<< This sad and sensitive account records the unearthing of an actual mass grave in Indonesia, which contained the corpses of alleged political activists, namely communists, who were murdered during Suharto’s regime. The film fol- lows the course of the victims’ relatives’ plea to exhume the remains with dignity in a forest in Wonosobo, Central Java in 2000, only to be faced with harsh resistance from the locals. >>> BEST DOCUMENTARY <<< – Festival Film Video Independen Indonesia 2002 — Riding My Tiger – Trilogi Jawa III (2014), 42 min, by Ascan Breuer >>> VIENNA PREMIERE <<< The filmmaker searches for the spirit of a tiger said to have haunted the house of his ancestors on Java. Locating this spirit is no easy matter, as it must be summoned in a respectful manner. A number of stories have grown around it, personified as the family´s grandfather, as the ghost of an old man who resides in the garden and finishes off thieves and poor craftsmen. It also recalls the resistance against Dutch colonialism and the conflicts that played out during the Cold War. By using the old art of Javanese shadow puppetry, Wayang Kulit, Breuer creates a new genre of docu- mentary: a “magical documentary”. >>> BEST FILM / MOST INNOVATIVE FILM <<< (nominee) – Visions Du Réel 2014 euroseas 2015 . book of abstracts 6 — Presentation of International People’s Tribunal 1965, with Sri Tunruang and Artien Utrecht (IPT1965), Alex Flor (Watch Indonesia!) “As a people’s tribunal, the ‘IPT 1965’ derives its power from the voices of victims, and of national and international civil societies. The IPT 1965 has the format of a formal human rights court. It is not a criminal court in the sense that individual persons are indicted. The prosecutors will indict the state of Indonesia, based on the proofs presented of responsibility for the widespread and systematic crimes against humanity committed after the ‘events of 1965’ in Indonesia. The proof presented consists of documents, audiovisual materials, statements of witnesses and other recognized legale means. The power of this Tribunal is to examine the evidence, develop an accurate historical and scientific record and apply principles of International law to the facts as found. The judges produce a verdict based on the material presented and call upon the Government

  • Prosody of Tone Sandhi in Vietnamese Reduplications
    Prosody of Tone Sandhi in Vietnamese Reduplications Authors Thu Nguyen Linguistics program E.M.S.A.H. University of Queensland St Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia Email: [email protected] John Ingram Linguistics program E.M.S.A.H. University of Queensland St Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract In this paper we take advantage of the segmental control afforded by full and partial Vietnamese reduplications on a constant carrier phrase to obtain acoustic evidence of assymetrical prominence relations (van der Hulst 2005), in support of a hypothesis that Vietnamese reduplications are phonetically right headed and that tone sandhi is a reduction phenomenon occurring on prosodically weak positions (Shih, 2005). Acoustic parameters of syllable duration (onset, nucleus and coda), F0 range, F0 contour, vowel intensity, spectral tilt and vowel formant structure are analyzed to determine: (1) which syllable of the two (base or reduplicant) is more prominent and (2) how the tone sandhi forms differ from their full reduplicated counterparts. Comparisons of full and partial reduplicant syllables in tone sandhi forms provide additional support for this analysis. Key words: tone sandhi, prosody, stress, reduplication, Vietnamese, acoustic analysis ____________________________ We would like to thank our subjects for offering their voices for the analysis, Dr. Nguyen Hong Nguyen for statistical advice and the anonymous reviewers for their valuable comments and suggestions. The Postdoctoral research fellowship granted to the first author by the University of Queensland is acknowledged. Prosody of tone sandhi in Vietnamese reduplications 2 1. Introduction Vietnamese is a contour tone language, which is strongly syllabic in its phonological organization and morphology.

  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • Trajectories of the Early-Modern Kingdoms in Eastern Indonesia: Comparative Perspectives
    Trajectories of the early-modern kingdoms in eastern Indonesia: Comparative perspectives Hans Hägerdal Introduction The king grew increasingly powerful. His courage indeed resembled that of a lion. He wisely attracted the hearts of the people. The king was a brave man who was sakti and superior in warfare. In fact King Waturenggong was like the god Vishnu, at times having four arms. The arms held the cakra, the club, si Nandaka, and si Pañcajania. How should this be understood? The keris Ki Lobar and Titinggi were like the club and cakra of the king. Ki Tandalanglang and Ki Bangawan Canggu were like Sangka Pañcajania and the keris si Nandaka; all were the weapons of the god Vishnu which were very successful in defeating ferocious enemies. The permanent force of the king was called Dulang Mangap and were 1,600 strong. Like Kalantaka it was led by Kriyan Patih Ularan who was like Kalamretiu. It was dispatched to crush Dalem Juru [king of Blambangan] since Dalem Juru did not agree to pass over his daughter Ni Bas […] All the lands submitted, no-one was the equal to the king in terms of bravery. They were all ruled by him: Nusa Penida, Sasak, Sumbawa, and especially Bali. Blambangan until Puger had also been subjugated, all was lorded by him. Only Pasuruan and Mataram were not yet [subjugated]. These lands were the enemies (Warna 1986: 78, 84). Thus did a Balinese chronicler recall the deeds of a sixteenth-century ruler who supposedly built up a mini-empire that stretched from East Java to Sumbawa.

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.

  • 4. Old Track, Old Path
    4 Old track, old path ‘His sacred house and the place where he lived,’ wrote Armando Pinto Correa, an administrator of Portuguese Timor, when he visited Suai and met its ruler, ‘had the name Behali to indicate the origin of his family who were the royal house of Uai Hali [Wehali] in Dutch Timor’ (Correa 1934: 45). Through writing and display, the ruler of Suai remembered, declared and celebrated Wehali1 as his origin. At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Portuguese increased taxes on the Timorese, which triggered violent conflict with local rulers, including those of Suai. The conflict forced many people from Suai to seek asylum across the border in West Timor. At the end of 1911, it was recorded that more than 2,000 East Timorese, including women and children, were granted asylum by the Dutch authorities and directed to settle around the southern coastal plain of West Timor, in the land of Wehali (La Lau 1912; Ormelling 1957: 184; Francillon 1967: 53). On their arrival in Wehali, displaced people from the village of Suai (and Camenaça) took the action of their ruler further by naming their new settlement in West Timor Suai to remember their place of origin. Suai was once a quiet hamlet in the village of Kletek on the southern coast of West Timor. In 1999, hamlet residents hosted their brothers and sisters from the village of Suai Loro in East Timor, and many have stayed. With a growing population, the hamlet has now become a village with its own chief asserting Suai Loro origin; his descendants were displaced in 1911.
