Title: Maintaining Tradition, Constructing Identity: Identity Construction of “Orang Laut” in Saponda, Southeast Sulawesi
Author: Saifudin (CRCS, 2009)
Keywords: The Badjau, Orang Laut, Orang Darat, Identity Construction.
Abstract:
This thesis describes identity construction performed by the Badjaus who become the orang laut community settling a small island named Saponda in Konawe district, Southeast Sulawesi. The Badjau’s identity could be identified by their settlement and their daily life which always bound up with the sea; the reason making Badjau as orang laut. Historically, the Badjaus are the boat men who do not live in the house permanently living in the boat only, but nowadays, the Badjaus have already dwelled numerous coastal areas in Indonesia and many of them dwelled small islands—such as Saponda Island. The fact that the orang laut’s identity was originally built in the sea, does not mean that their identity was static. From the research performed, it was found that government’s policy such as education, health facility and the interaction between Badjaus and other tribes (orang darat) have influenced their identity construction. On the contrary, orang laut’s identity, however, is still there even though out-side values have continuously been appearing.

Judul: Jalan Jalang Ketuhanan: Gatholoco dan Dekonstruksi Santri Brai
Penulis: Heru Siswanto (CRCS, 2009)
Kata-Kata Kunci: serat suluk gatholoco, sastra, tasawuf, agama dan budaya
Abstrak:
Serat Gatholoco merupakan salah satu karya sastra suluk Jawa yang ditulis di penghujung abad ke-19. Secara umum, serat ini masih dipandang kontroversial. Ia kerap dianggap sebagai karya sastra picisan (mesum) yang hanya dilontarkan untuk menghujat Islam.
Penelitian ini merupakan sebuah upaya pembacaan secara deisolatif. Artinya, pembacaan atas Serat Gatholoco dilakukan dengan melibatkan teks-teks sastra suluk Jawa lainnya ataupun juga pandangan-pandangan tasawuf yang menjadi paradigma sastra suluk Jawa. Dengan kata lain, yang lebih diutamakan dalam pembacaan ini adalah pencarian keterkaitan Serat Gatholoco dengan serat-serat Jawa lainnya. Keterkaitan tekstual semacam ini dipandang sebagai karakteristik dominan dalam kesusastraan Jawa tradisional.
