Along rivers in Bali, small groups of farmers meet regularly in water temples to manage their irrigation systems. They have done so for a thousand years. Over the centuries, water temple networks have expanded to manage the ecology of rice terraces at the scale of whole watersheds. Although each group focuses on its own problems, a global solution nonetheless emerges that optimizes irrigation flows for everyone. Did someone have to design Bali's water temple networks, or could they have emerged from a self-organizing process? Perfect Order--a groundbreaking work at the nexus of conservation, complexity theory, and anthropology--describes a series of fieldwork projects triggered by this quest...
The COVID-19 pandemic is the worst crisis and historical record for the global tourism sector since the 1950s. Destinations that rely heavily on the tourism sector will face this pandemic’s extraordinary impact, such as Bali, which experienced a significant depreciation of economic growth. However, the COVID-19 pandemic is also the right opportunity and momentum to redesign tourism development more sustainable to overcome the overtourism issue in Bali. Tourism recovery efforts must be carried out immediately by prioritizing product diversification and increasing destinations’ value and quality according to tourism development trends, such as digital nomadism. Digital nomadism as a lifest...
International Conference on Medical And Health Research (ICOMHeR) 2018 with theme Medical and Healthcare Improvement Through Innovative Research and Interdisciplinary Collaboration, November 13-14, 2018 in Mercure Hotel Padang, Indonesia. This conference was an open gate for us to start the information, experiences, researchers as well collaboration between various academics, non-academics and researchers. This expands our mutual knowledge and experiences. The papers use various approaches and strategies for research in medical and health. It will give us different perspectives and knowledge for the development of medical and health research. Including how the media formed an opinion in the community about gender roles through the content provided by the new media. Definitely, it will be interesting to study media related to the law, social, and economic perspective.
We are delighted to introduce the proceedings of the first edition of the 2018 Warmadewa Research Institution Conference on Land Use in Regional Spatial Plans and Investments for the Development of Sustainable Tourism in Bali.

Food systems in Indonesia and worldwide have experienced major transformations in the wake of agricultural modernisation. Once intact eco-systems have declined dramatically, along with human diets, long term food security and social cohesion. Using long-term ethnographic research, we documented this loss of traditional food systems in Java, Bali, East Timor and India, but also a recent revival and reinvention of sustainable production methods and community-based distribution systems. A growing movement of small farmers now reject the dominant paradigm of aggressive capitalist development, and are re-creating food systems based on moral ecology – a new concept we introduce to characterise food systems that regenerate the natural environment and serve the common good, rather than maximise profit. Small farmers like these already feed two thirds of humanity using only a third of agricultural land. With proper support, we argue, they could feed the entire world, using sustainable and socially responsible approaches to eradicate world hunger.
Judul : Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Dalam Perencanaan Desa Wisata Penulis : Ida Bagus Suryawan dan I G Oka Mahagangga Ukuran : 14,5 x 21 cm Tebal : 200 Halaman Cover : Soft Cover No. ISBN : 978-623-162-651-6 SINOPSIS Buku ini mencoba mendeskripsikan perencanaan desa wisata dalam kacamata pemberdayaan masyarakat.

Hal ini disamping karena masyarakat sudah diasosiasikan keterlibatannya di desa, juga karena umumnya perencanaan desa wisata umumnya dilakukan dalam tataran kebijakan dan kegiatan bisnis. Coba digali kembali secara konseptual mengenai desa, masyarakat dan pariwisata. Dalam...
This book explores the notion that the emergent language of contemporary theatre, and more generally of modern culture, has links to much earlier forms of storytelling and an ancient worldview. This volume looks at our diverse and amalgamative theatrical inheritance and discusses various practitioners and companies whose work reflects and recapitulates ideas, approaches, and structures original to theatre’s ritual roots. Drawing together a range of topics and examples from the early Middle Ages to the modern day, Chadwick focuses in on a theatrical language which includes an emphasis on the psychosomatic, the non-linear, the symbolic, the liminal, the collective, and the sacred. This interdisciplinary work draws on approaches from the fields of anthropology, philosophy, historical and cognitive phenomenology, and neuroscience, making the case for the significance of historically responsive modes in theatre practice and more widely in our society and culture.

Statues, paintings, and masks—like the bodies of shamans and spirit mediums—give material form and presence to otherwise invisible entities, and sometimes these objects are understood to be enlivened, agentive on their own terms. This book explores how magical images are expected to work with the shamans and spirit mediums who tend and use them in contemporary South Korea, Vietnam, Myanmar, Bali, and elsewhere in Asia. It considers how such things are fabricated, marketed, cared for, disposed of, and sometimes transformed into art-market commodities and museum artifacts.
The violence directed against the political left in Indonesia from 1965 until 1968 has been the subject of intense speculation. The large number of deaths and brutal interrogations, as well as rape, torture, short- and long-term detention and on-going discrimination inflicted on hundreds of thousands of people, makes this a compelling topic. However, political sensitivities within Indonesia and a dearth of evidence made serious research on the topic extremely difficult under the New Order regime. The Contours of Mass Violence in Indonesia presents case studies from diverse locations throughout the Indonesian archipelago. The accounts revolve around the impact and interpretations of the Septe...
