More than 2,000 communities in Indonesia who define themselves asmasyarakat adat Culture and Entitlements between or “indigenous peoples” had already joined the Indigenous Peoples’ Alliance of Heteronomy and Self-Ascription the Archipelago” (AMAN) by 2013. In their efforts to gain recognition and self- determination, these communities are supported by international donors and Brigitta Hauser-Schäublin (ed.) international as well as national NGOs by means of development programmes. In the definition of masyarakat adat, “culture” or adat plays an important role in the communities’ self-definition. Based on particular characteristics of their adat, the asset of their culture, they try to distinguish themselves from others in order to substantiate their claims for the restitution of their traditional rights and property (namely land and other natural resources) from the state. The authors of this volume investigate how differently structured communities - socially, po- litically and religiously - and associations reposition themselves vis-à-vis others, especially the state, not only by drawing on adat for achieving particular goals, but also dignity and a better future. and Indigeneity in Indonesia Adat Brigitta (ed.)

Since 2011, we have been investigating how “culture”, or more specifically adat (concepts of traditional ways of life and values), is shaped and deployed by various actors in Indonesia to define their identities, reclaim rights and property, and reposition themselves in the multi-ethnic state of Indonesia since the fall of the Suharto regime (1998). A workshop entitled “Adat between state governance and self-determined indigeneity in Indonesia” was held at Göttingen University in October 2011. The preliminary results of the most recent anthropological research on adat or rather on “indigeneity” in Indonesia were presented by scholars at this workshop, including our much-valued research fellow from Jakarta, Fadjar Ibnu Thufail, from the Göttingen projects, and also by a scholar from Bonn University. Since the struggles for recognition of a special adat particularly of “indigenous groups” in Indonesia can only be understood against 1 The research on which the chapter by Steinebach is based was carried out during a project within the Collaborative Research Centre 990, “Ecological and Socioeconomic Functions of Tropical Lowland Rainforest Transformation Systems (Sumatra, Indonesia)”, also based at Göttingen University. 4 Brigitta Hauser-Schäublin the background of international conventions and aid programmes for the promotion of indigenous peoples, two scholars from the International Law Department of Göttingen University (Katja Göcke and Maria Victoria Cabrera Ormaza) were invited, as well as the well-known Indonesian lawyer and indigenous peoples activist, Sandra Moniaga, to present their perspective on the issue of indigeneity. The present volume mirrors this anthropological-international law co-operation and exchange of views on indigeneity. We are grateful that two lawyers from Indonesia, Yance Arizona and Erasmus Cahyadi, wrote an insightful paper on the current state of affairs on a special law on indigenous peoples in Indonesia. Francesca Merlan, the renowned anthropologist from the National University in Canberra and an expert on “indigeneity”, spent a month as a Fellow of the Research Unit at Göttingen in June 2013. We all benefitted tremendously from her lectures, the comments she gave on earlier versions of several chapters and her insights. She has written an Epilogue to the volume from an encompassing, comparative perspective. I would like to thank her for writing this important chapter, for her commitment and

  • The Revival of Tradition in Indonesian Politics
    The Revival of Tradition in Indonesian Politics The Indonesian term adat means ‘custom’ or ‘tradition’, and carries connotations of sedate order and harmony. Yet in recent years it has suddenly become associated with activism, protest and violence. Since the resignation of President Suharto in 1998, diverse indigenous communities and ethnic groups across Indonesia have publicly, vocally, and sometimes violently, demanded the right to implement elements of adat in their home territories. This book investigates the revival of adat in Indonesian politics, identifying its origins, the historical factors that have conditioned it and the reasons for its recent blossoming. The book considers whether the adat revival is a constructive contribution to Indonesia’s new political pluralism or a divisive, dangerous and reactionary force, and examines the implications for the development of democracy, human rights, civility and political stability. It is argued that the current interest in adat is not simply a national offshoot of international discourses on indigenous rights, but also reflects a specifically Indonesian ideological tradition in which land, community and custom provide the normative reference points for political struggles. Whilst campaigns in the name of adat may succeed in redressing injustices with regard to land tenure and helping to preserve local order in troubled times, attempts to create enduring forms of political order based on adat are fraught with dangers. These dangers include the exacerbation of ethnic conflict, the legitimation of social inequality, the denial of individual rights and the diversion of attention away from issues of citizenship, democracy and the rule of law at national level. Overall, this book is a full appraisal of the growing significance of adat in Indonesian politics, and is an important resource for anyone seeking to understand the contemporary Indonesian political landscape.

  • Confirm That the Condition Was Really the Impact of Development, The
    confirm that the condition was really the impact of development, the paper will look at the condition of Orang Baduy who have ‐‐to some degree‐‐ rejected such development. The rejection of development by the Orang Baduy has resulted in a relative socio‐cultural integrity in the community. Finally, the presentation will close with a discussion of some scenarios of development and its impact upon traditional communities. Keywords: development, exclusion, Orang Rimba dan Orang Baduy HOW DEVELOPMENT AND CONSERVATION INTERVENTIONS MAY BOTH EXACERBATE AND MITIGATE MARGINALITY: SHIFTING POWER RELATIONS ON THE LINDU PLAIN, CENTRAL SULAWESI Greg Acciaioli The University of Western Australia Among the development interventions of the Indonesian government briefly following independence was a program of ‘seeding’ numerous lakes across Indonesia with the spawn of Mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus. i.e. mujair or nila). This paper traces the chain of consequences across decades of this fish’s introduction in Lake Lindu in highland Central Sulawesi beginning in 1951. Initially, this intervention did not provide the enhanced livelihood opportunities to the Indigenous Lindu people intended by the government. Instead, Bugis migrants, IDPs from sectarian conflict in South and Central Sulawesi, used gill nets to intensify harvesting of the species and established a fish marketing system to the Palu Valley and beyond by recruiting kin and clients through chain migration. However, when the Bugis depleted the stock of tilapia in the early 1990s, the Indigenous Lindu people struck back, having been re‐empowered by their successful resistance to a hydro‐electric scheme (PLTA) at Lindu and by their emergent partnership with the Lore Lindu National Park authority and the park’s co‐manager, The Nature Conservancy (TNC), recognised through community conservation agreements.

  • Rules and Options
    Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.).

The incident discloses an overlooked connection between the aristocracy and economy and sheds light on the challenges the aristocrats confront to rethink how noble culture and adat encounter the encroachment of capital and the state into the palace realm. In other words, the incident with the thugs depicts the predicament that the keraton and its noblemen must negotiate in order to sustain and assert the cultural sovereignty of the palace despite the continuous pressures from the state and capital to curtail the political role of the keraton.

E.A.HOWE HIERARCHY AND EQUALITY: VARIATIONS IN BALINESE SOCIAL ÖRGANIZATION Introduction Over the last decade a considerable portion of anthropological writing about Bali has concentrated on the island's history, in particular the development of its politico-religious structure (Geertz 1980; Guermon- prez 1985; van der Kraan 1983; Schulte Nordholt 1986), but also changing western representations of Balinese culture and society (Boon 1977; Schulte Nordholt 1986). This has provided a much needed and very valuable counterbalance to the more a-historical and synchronic studies of Bali characteristic of the postwar period. One issue has, however, been somewhat neglected. This concerns broad variation in forms of social organization. This may seem a rather odd claim, since rriany of the writings of Dutch colonial officers focused on variation, and indeed Korn (1932) devoted his major work to a detailed description of differences in social organization. Geertz (1959), moreover, chose to address this issue in his first published paper on Bali; he argued that observed variation was a result of the different ways in which seven 'organisational themes' could be combined. However, he confined himself to description and example and offered no explanation as to why and how different permutations emerged; and he dismissed as irrelevant a group of mountain villages (Bali Aga) whose social organization is markedly different to that of the plains villages which he had himself studied.
