    M arriageable Ag e : Political Debates on Early Marriage in Twentieth- C entury Indonesia Susan Blackburn and Sharon Bessell The purpose of this article is to show how the age of marriage, especially for girls, became a political issue in twentieth century Indonesia, and to investigate the changing intensity, focus, and participation in the debate over the issue. Compared with India, the incidence of very early marriage among Indonesian girls appears never to have been exceptionally high, yet among those trying to "modernize" Indonesia the fact that parents married off their daughters at or before the onset of puberty was considered a "social evil." Social reformers differed as to the reasons for their concern and as to what action should be taken and by whom. In particular there were strong disagreements about whether government intervention was either desirable or effective in raising the age of marriage. The age at which it is appropriate for girls to marry has been a contentious matter in many countries in recent centuries. In societies where marriage was considered to be the prerogative of families, the children themselves were rarely consulted and the age of marriage, or at least of betrothal, was likely to be quite young, before children could exert their own will. Although physical readiness for sexual intercourse and child­ bearing was a consideration, this was a matter to be supervised by adult kin, and the wedding could, if necessary, be timed so that it occurred separately from the consummation of marriage. Apart from families, the only other institutions directly concerned with marriage were likely to be religious ones.

  • Contesting Sartorial Hierarchies
    Contesting Sartorial Hierarchies From Ethnic Stereotypes to National Dress , Raden Moehamad Enoch, a junior engineer at the Department of Public Works, patiently waited in line to purchase a I second-class train ticket at the Bandung railway station. Dressed in a Euro- pean suit, Enoch exemplied his generation of young Javanese who enjoyed a Western education, were uent in Dutch, and had roots in the lower aristoc- racy but worked in nontraditional professions. When it was his turn, Enoch approached the window and, in Dutch, kindly requested a train ticket to Madiun, his hometown. e European ticket o cer, clearly annoyed, replied to Enoch in Malay and told him to wait. When he then immediately accepted a European patron at his window, Enoch stepped up to another o cer at the counter for third-class tickets, only to be denied service once more. On Enoch’s inquiry as to why he was not served at either window, the ticket o cer yelled at him—this time in Dutch—and told him unmistakably to either shut up or su er the consequences. Enoch refused to back down, which provoked the ticket o cer into bellowing: “You are a native, and thus need to buy your ticket at the window for natives.” Instead, the proud Enoch demanded to speak to the sta- tion chief. When the chief arrived, he was forced to acknowledge Enoch’s right to purchase his ticket at any window he pleased—a right that was previously limited to Europeans. On the train to Madiun, Enoch described the episode in a letter to Advisor for Native A airs G.

  • The Social Movement and Social Enterprise Development in the Emergence of Indonesia, 1895-1945
    The Social Movement and Social Enterprise Development in the Emergence of Indonesia, 1895-1945 Sri Rahayu Hijrah Hati* 1 and Aida Idris University of Malaya Abstract The term social entrepreneurship is relatively new in academic research but the initiatives which fulfill the key characteristics of social enterprise were founded in Indonesia long before its independence. This paper describes the history of social entrepreneurship in the country during the period marking the end of the Dutch rule and beginning of its independence (1895-1945). Based on archival analysis it was found that policies imposed by the Dutch government in the early 20th century had significant influence on social enterprise growth in the colony. Findings of the study also suggest that most social movement organizations during the period used social entrepreneurship strategies to achieve its mission of empowering local communities and promoting the notion of independence. Thus the growth of social entrepreneurship in Indonesia appeared to be largely due to the nationalist movement. The study also found that social enterprises were mostly established in Java, the island which has dominated Indonesian social, political and economic landscape throughout history. Hence, Islam as the religion of the vast majority of Javanese, had also been very influential in shaping social entrepreneurship in the country. Keywords: social entrepreneurship, social movement, nationalism, religion, Indonesia 1 Corresponding Author. E-mail addresses: [email protected] .my or [email protected] 1 Introduction The term social entrepreneurship first gained recognition in Indonesia approximately 30 years ago when Ashoka Foundation launched its initial programs in 1983 (Ashoka, 2011).

The Dutch established an enduring system of hegemony by encouraging cultural, social and racial mixing; in other words, by embedding themselves in Javanese culture and society. From the 1890s until the late 1920s this complex system of dominance was transformed by rapid technological innovation, evolutionary thinking, the emergence of Indonesian nationalism, and the intensification of the Dutch “civilizing” mission. This study traces the interactions between Dutch and Indonesian civil servants, officials, nationalists, journalists and novelists, to reveal how these transformations resulted in the transition from cultural hegemony based on feudal traditions and symbols to hegemony grounded in enhanced Westernization and heightened coercion. Consequently, it is argued that we need to understand the civilizing mission ideology and the process of modernization in the colonial context as part of larger cultural projects of control.

  • Education in the Netherlands East-Indies
    Education in the Netherlands East-Indies P 1. The Department of Education and Worship, 1930 Jl Cilacap, Jakarta / Batavia, Weltevreden From: Dept. of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce,Handbook of the Netherlands East-Indies; Bogor / Buitenzorg Java 1930, p. 72 In the nineteenth century European education had hardly any similarities with native schooling in the Netherlands East-Indies. The native schools were mostly institutions with a religious, Islamitic, curriculum. In the twentieth century the Dutch colonial government tried to realize a breadthwise education. For that reason the governor-general Van Heutsz and his staff introduced elementary instruction by way of so-called “desa-schools” in 1906. The advantages were numerous: the education was simple, cheap and adapted to local circumstances (see survey a and b about desa-schools and link-schools). The colonial government foresaw a great demand for native middleclass workers in the public and private service (see superstructures in survey c). Therefore in 1920 a network of education was created from desa-school up to university. The first university education (technological) was established in Bandung / Bandoeng in 1918, followed by other facuties in Jakarta / Batavia. In 1940 more than fourty percent of the children (6-12 years old) attended schooltraining. The efforts of the colonial government to combat illiteracy were a succes. (Source: J. van Goor, De Nederlandse koloniën; The Hague 1978, p.275) One of the results of the efforts to fill up a gap between stimulation of education and eagerness to read has been the creation of mutual libraries: Balai Pusaka and Volksliteratuur. The aim of this article is to show an impression of the serious efforts of the Dutch colonial government in the first half of the twentieth century to introduce a system of education for everybody.

The group in par- ticular distinguishes itself by its possession of Dutch literacy. It never made up more than about 0.5 percent of the colony’s population,1 which, however, amounts to as many as three hundred thousand men and women, living in towns and cities as a general rule.
