具体描述
The glossy guidebook images of Bali as a timeless paradise whose people are
devoutly religious and artistically gifted hides a very different reality. The
Changing World of Bali analyses the religious and social changes in Bali and the
impact of tourism in the context of political and economic developments in Indonesia
from the colonial period to the present day.
A hundred years of colonialism, war, Indonesian independence and tourism
have produced modernising changes, but also generated images of Bali as
‘traditional’.
Incorporating up-to-date ethnographic fieldwork, the book investigates the
myriad of ways in which the Balinese have responded to the influx of outside
influence. The Balinese have seen the emergence of a much more fluid and
contested religious scene, generating dynamic connections between religious
practice, ethnic identity and artistic activity. However, Howe argues that these
developments have been complicated by a concern for the integrity and authenticity
of Balinese culture. Exploitation of the island by the tourist industry,
especially after the 2002 Bali bomb, has created a sense among the Balinese that
they are being robbed and their culture contaminated.
In documenting these diverse changes, Howe critically assesses some of the
work of Bali’s most famous ethnographer, Clifford Geertz, and demonstrates the
importance of a historically grounded and broadly contextualised approach to the
analysis of a complex society.
