TIONGHOA MERAJUT KEINDONESIAAN Persembahan 80 Tahun Leo Suryadinata
Siapapun yang meneliti etnik Tionghoa Indonesia, dipastikan pernah membaca karya-karya Leo Suryadinata, setidaknya mengenal namanya. Dengan publikasinya dalam berbagai bahasa, pria kelahiran Jakarta ini telah memberikan pengetahuan mengenai etnik Tionghoa dalam berbagai aspeknya. Terlebih di masa Orde Baru, tulisan Leo berkontribusi memberikan perspektif yang berbeda dari versi penguasa. Pada 2021, peneliti senior ISEAS Singapura ini merayakan ulang tahunnya ke-80. Keluarga besar NGGOTIO (Nggosipin Tionghoa, Yuk!) tidak mau melewatkan momen istimewa ini. Hasilnya adalah festschrift yang berisi persembahan dari 12 penulis sebagai bukti penghormatan untuk Leo Suryadinata.
Terdekat dan Terasing: Kumpulan Catatan Sejarah Sosial Keluarga
Mengenal Indonesia melalui sudut pandang dan narasi kecil bernama keluarga adalah upaya untuk mendekatkan “yang jauh”. Sehingga kita memiliki kesempatan menjadi tak perlu panjang lebar dan muluk-muluk untuk menjelaskan Indonesia karena bisa dimulai dari yang paling dekat—melalui sejarah keluarga dan orang-orang di sekitar kita, melalui aktivitas keseharian, ritual agama dan kepercayaan, tradisi, makanan dan minuman, arsitektur, gaya berpakaian, atau apa saja yang selama ini kita terima begitu saja sebagai hal yang biasa. Kisah-kisah di buku ini seperti menjelma menjadi kawan yang menawarkan keakraban yang nyaris tak pernah ia tampakkan di ruang-ruang resmi dan serius. Kita menjadi tahu bahwa kita tak pernah benar-benar tahu tentang kawan kelasi terdekat. Pada akhirnya kita tahu setelah mendengar langsung kisah diri dan keluarganya, dan kita membuka diri menerima kawan kita dengan segala macam kisah hidupnya.
KOTA DAN JEJAK AKTIVITAS PERADABAN
Buku ini ditujukan untuk melanjutkan tradisi penceritaan kembali peristiwa sejarah, baik yang sudah memiliki penggolongan secara kuat untuk masuk ke dalam sejarah kota maupun tidak. Proses pengumpulan naskah ini pun dilakukan secara bertahap. Selain cukup memakan waktu yang cukup panjang, mengingat tren yang berkembang saat ini di perguruan tinggi untuk publikasi jurnal yang terindeks scopus atau internasional bereputasi cukup menguras perhatian, buku ini pada akhirnya mampu menghimpun beberapa tulisan. Buku ini terbagi ke dalam tiga bagian, yaitu air, tanah, dan perkembangan kota; politik dan komunitas perkotaan; serta kampung dan kehidupan perkotaan. Pada bagian pertama, artikel Sarkawi B....

Translation and Tourism
This book addresses one of the most central, yet criticised, solutions for international tourism promotion, namely translation. It brings together theory and practice, explores the various challenges involved in translating tourism promotional materials (TPMs), and puts forward a sustainable solution capable of achieving maximum impact in the industry and society. The solution, in the form of a Cultural-Conceptual Translation (CCT) model, identifies effective translation strategies and offers a platform for making TPM translation more streamlined, efficient and easily communicated. Using the English-Malay language combination as a case study, the book analyses tourism discourse and includes a road test of the CCT model on actual end-users of TPMs as well as tourism marketers in the industry. Guidelines for best practices in the industry round out the book, which offers valuable insights not only for researchers but also, and more importantly, various stakeholders in the translation, tourism and advertising industries.

The Politics of Religion in Indonesia
Indonesia is a remarkable case study for religious politics. While not being a theocratic country, it is not secular either, with the Indonesian state officially defining what constitutes religion, and every citizen needing to be affiliated to one of them. This book focuses on Java and Bali, and the interesting comparison of two neighbouring societies shaped by two different religions - Islam and Hinduism. The book examines the appropriation by the peoples of Java and Bali of the idea of religion, through a dialogic process of indigenization of universalist religions and universalization of indigenous religions. It looks at the tension that exists between proponents of local world-views and indigenous belief systems, and those who deny those local traditions as qualifying as a religion. This tension plays a leading part in the construction of an Indonesian religious identity recognized by the state. The book is of interest to students and scholars of Southeast Asia, religious studies and the anthropology and sociology of religion.
Once in a Promised Land
They say there was or there wasn't in olden times a story as old as life, as young as this moment, a story that is yours and is mine. Once in a Promised Land is the story of Jassim and Salwa, who left the deserts of their native Jordan for those of Arizona, each chasing mirages of opportunity and freedom. Although the couple live far from Ground Zero, they cannot escape the dust cloud of paranoia settling over the nation. A hydrologist, Jassim believes passionately in his mission to make water accessible to all people, but his work is threatened by an FBI witch hunt for domestic terrorists. A Palestinian now twice displaced, Salwa embraces the American dream. She grapples to put down roots in an unwelcoming climate, becoming pregnant against her husband's wishes. When Jassim kills a teenage boy in a terrible accident and Salwa becomes hopelessly entangled with a shadowy young American, their tenuous lives in exile and their fragile marriage begin to unravel. Once in a Promised Land is a dramatic and achingly honest look at what it means to straddle cultures, to be viewed with suspicion, and to struggle to find safe haven.
