Agama, Negara dan Globalisasi
Survei membuktikan bahwa agama atau keyakinan adalah salah satu faktor paling krusial yang menyebabkan perpecahan dalam masyarakat. Sepanjang sejarah, berbagai jenis konflik biasanya dilatarbelakangi oleh keyakinan yang berbeda. Di kalangan umat Hindu pun, konflik internal karena perbedaan mantra, tata cara persembahyangan, ista-devata, atau bahkan perbedaan kecil lainnya bisa menyulut konflik yang berlarut-larut. Dalam skup inilah peran cendekiawan Hindu yang netral, mengayomi dan melindungi diperlukan. Cendekiawan Hindu hendaknya dapat berpikir luwes dan mampu mencari titik temu di antara berbagai warna dan rona Hindu. Dengan menggabungkan semua warna itu, Hindu akan menjadi jauh lebih indah dan cantik. Hindu tidak harus seragam. Jadikanlah ia tetap beragam namun senantiasa saling genggam.
Kompendium Pengetahuan Sumber (Perspektif Yoga Kesehatan, Komunikasi, Kewirausahaan, Seni Budaya Keagamaan, dan Pendidikan Hindu)
Kalangan intelektual Hindu perlu mengembangkan pendidikan berbasis agama dari berbagai sub rumpun ilmu keagamaan. Dalam rangka merealisasikan ide tersebut, maka diperlukan pengetahuan sumber (ontologi) yang berbasis pada teks agama yang menjadi acuan untuk mengembangkan ilmu pengetahuan. Pengembangan Program Studi yang dilakukan di Sekolah Tinggi Agama Hindu (STAH) Dharma Nusantara Jakarta, tidak terlepas dari syarat tersebut, dalam hal ini memerlukan pengetahuan sumber yang dapat dipergunakan sebagai acuan pengembangan prodi dimaksud. Berangkat dari fenomena inilah maka disusunlah Book Chapter dengan tajuk Kompendium Pengetahuan Sumber (Perspektif Yoga Kesehatan, Komunikasi, Kewirausahaan, Seni Budaya Keagamaan, dan Pendidikan Hindu) yang ditulis oleh Dosen, mahasiswa, dan alumni Sekolah Tinggi Agama Hindu Dharma Nusantara Jakarta.
Upacara Entas-Entas: Kajian Perspektif Hindu
Pelaksanaan entas-entas berperan sebagai sarana untuk menjaga identitas sekaligus mengeksplorasi pertentangan budaya. Dalam tradisi Hindu Jawa, kita mengenal serangkaian upacara yang berkaitan dengan pemakaman, mulai dari ngesur tanah saat kematian, diikuti oleh nelung dino (tiga hari setelahnya), mitung dino (tujuh hari kemudian), matang puluh (empat puluh hari), nyatus (seratus hari), mendak sepisan (sehari setelah seratus hari), mendak pindho (dua ratus hari), hingga Nyewu (tiga ratus hari). Kemudian, entas-entas diselenggarakan setelah upacara Nyewu, sebagai tahap penyucian roh leluhur agar dapat melanjutkan perjalanan spiritual menuju Yang Maha Kuasa.
The Decentralization of Forest Governance
'This book provides an excellent overview of more than a decade of transformation in a forest landscape where the interests of local people extractive industries and globally important biodiversity are in conflict. The studies assembled here teach us that plans and strategies are fine but in the real world of the forest frontier conservation must be based upon negotiation social learning and an ability to muddle through.'

Television, Nation, and Culture in Indonesia
The culture of television in Indonesia began with its establishment in 1962 as a public broadcasting service. From that time, through the deregulation of television broadcasting in 1990 and the establishment of commercial channels, television can be understood, Philip Kitley argues, as a part of the New Order’s national culture project, designed to legitimate an idealized Indonesian national cultural identity. But Professor Kitley suggests that it also has become a site for the contestation of elements of the New Order’s cultural policies. Based on his studies, he further speculates on the increasingly significant role that television is destined to play as a site of cultural and political struggle.
The State and Illegality in Indonesia
The popular 1998 reformasi movement that brought down President Suharto’s regime demanded an end to illegal practices by state officials, from human rights abuse to nepotistic investments. Yet today, such practices have proven more resistant to reform than people had hoped. Many have said corruption in Indonesia is "entrenched". We argue it is precisely this entrenched character that requires attention. What is state illegality entrenched in and how does it become entrenched? This involves studying actual cases. Our observations led us to rethink fundamental ideas about the nature of the state in Indonesia, especially regarding its socially embedded character. We conclude that illegal prac...
The Papua Conflict
?Without Irian Jaya [Papua], Indonesia is not complete to become the national territory of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia.? In recalling this statement of President Sukarno, her father, Megawati Sukarnoputri gave voice to the essence of the nationalists? conception of Papua?s place in Indonesia and its importance. Indonesia today confronts renewed Papuan demands for independence nearly three decades after Jakarta thought it had liberated the Papuans from the yoke of Dutch colonialism. Indonesia?s sovereignty in Papuan has been contested for much of the period since Indonesia proclaimed its independence??challenged initially by the Netherlands and since 1961 by various groups within Papuan...
Kinship in Bali
This work constitutes the first book-length examination of Balinese kinship in English and an important theoretical analysis of the central ethnographic concept of "kinship system." Hildred and Clifford Geertz's findings challenge the prevailing anthropological notion of a kinship system as an autonomous set of institutionalized social relationships. Their research in Bali suggests that kinship cannot be studied in isolation but must be perceived as a symbolic subsystem governed by ideas and beliefs unique to each culture.
