Srawung Kampung-Kota
Satu dekade lebih, narasi kota-kota di Indonesia mengalami banyak perubahan yang bersifat fundamental, dimana pemicu utamanya adalah bergesernya bandul kekuasaan yang bergerak dari pusat ke daerah. Nalar desentralisasi serta merta menjadi titik mula gelombang proses, dinamika maupun perubahan yang terjadi dalam beragam dimensi. Ada banyak kebimbangan untuk mencari bentuk dari perubahan yang bersifat transisi maupun tantangan untuk merespon ketimpangan yang ada. Sebab beragam kisah yang hadir sesudahnya adalah gambar tentang kota yang tumbuh dalam ragam kepentingan, dan tak lagi menempatkan negara sebagai orientasi tunggal tapi juga kepentingan-kepentingan politis, modal maupun kombinasi kedu...

The Domestication of Desire
While doing fieldwork in the modernizing Javanese city of Solo during the late 1980s, Suzanne Brenner came upon a neighborhood that seemed like a museum of a bygone era: Laweyan, a once-thriving production center of batik textiles, had embraced modernity under Dutch colonial rule, only to fend off the modernizing forces of the Indonesian state during the late twentieth century. Focusing on this community, Brenner examines what she calls the making of the "unmodern." She portrays a merchant enclave clinging to its distinctive forms of social life and highlights the unique power of women in the marketplace and the home--two domains closely linked to each other through local economies of produc...
Activists in Transition
Activists in Transition examines the relationship between social movements and democratization in Indonesia. Collectively, progressive social movements have played a critical role over in ensuring that different groups of citizens can engage directly in—and benefit from—the political process in a way that was not possible under authoritarianism. However, their individual roles have been different, with some playing a decisive role in the destabilization of the regime and others serving as bell-weathers of the advancement, or otherwise, of Indonesia's democracy in the decades since. Equally important, democratization has affected social movements differently depending on the form taken by each movement during the New Order period. The book assesses the contribution that nine progressive social movements have made to the democratization of Indonesia since the late 1980s, and how, in turn, each of those movements has been influenced by democratization.
Performance and Activism
Much has been written about the Los Angeles riots of 1992, which brought out deep racial tensions throughout the city, exposed by media images of police brutality. This book sheds light on another facet of the events: the birth of a dynamic grassroots activist and community organizing movement that has been little noticed by academics or even by the press. It also focuses on the theatrical production of Twilight: Los Angeles 1992, a performance piece created by Anna Deavere Smith. Performance and Activism analyzes a rich, eclectic, and ongoing ensemble of local activist struggles in the context of the history and political economy of Los Angeles. Building on the important critical urban stud...
