Hindu Bonds at Work: Spiritual and Commercial Ties between India and Bali

“…His concept of legal areas was problematic as the borderlines between them were often quite fuzzy as, for example, between Minangkabau and Tapanuli. Besides, variations within one legal area might be extremely high as, for example, among the centre and peripheral regions of Minangkabau, or the diverse ways in which Balinese communities were situated in hierarchical political structures and trans-local Hindu relations (von Benda-Beckmann and von Benda-Beckmann 2013; Ramstedt 2008). It also is true that his focus on the internal features of adat communities, and his criticism of the expropriations, made him underrate the importance of the interregional economic and social relationships that many people had cultivated long before the arrival of the Dutch.…”

This article discusses the conceptual and analytical contributions of the Dutch scholar Cornelis van Vollenhoven to the study of Indonesian adat law. He argued from a politically inspired concern about gross colonial exploitation in the Dutch East Indies that this was based on flawed understandings of local legal orders. This stimulated him to design a conceptual framework to capture the characteristics of these legal orders, called adat law. His perceptiveness to the distortions caused by using Western legal concepts to describe customary laws was unique for the time, and so was his attention to the various contexts other than in disputes in which adat law was used. This renders his work of importance not only for lawyers but also for social scientists. The article discusses the criticism against his academic work and suggests that despite some major weaknesses, some criticisms are anachronistic as they concerned earlier or later scholars rather than the work of van Vollenhoven himself. The article shows how debates about indigenous rights and the decentralisation policies after the fall of the Soeharto regime have stimulated a renewed interest in adat and adat law. It is argued that van Vollenhoven's conceptual framework is still of use, but only if it is expanded and set into a broader analysis of migration, exploitation, and power relations.

“…Yoga adalah daya tarik pariwisata di dunia, sehingga India dan Bali menjadi tujuan pariwisata yoga. Destinasi yoga di India dan Bali muncul sebagai akibat perkembangan yoga di Eropa dan Amerika yang disebabkan banyaknya guru-guru yoga dari India yang mengajarkan yoga ke Eropa dan Amerika dari sekitar tahun 1960an 9 (Ramstedt, 2008). Perkembangan yoga ini membangun berbagai fasilitas yoga di Eropa dan Amerika.…”

<p>Pariwisata yoga berkembang di Bali, selain di tempat kelahirannya yoga di India. Pencarian wisman terhadap yoga ke Bali mulai sejak tahun 1970-an dengan membawa guru yoga sendiri. Pada tahun 1980-an, guru-guru yoga lokal mulai terserap menjadi guru yoga untuk wisman. Pencarian wisman terhadap yoga ke Bali menimbulkan masalah penelitian tentang potensi, keunikan dan pengembangan produk yoga. Pertanyaan penelitian ini dibahas dengan teori motivasi, teori produk planning dan teori kepuasan. Data dikumpulkan dengan wawancara mendalam dan kuesioner. Data yang dikumpulkan ini dianalisis secara kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Bali memiliki potensi yoga yang berkembang pada keunikannya yang berbasis budaya dan etnik Bali. Kepuasan wisman terhadap produk yoga di Bali tertinggi terletak pada budaya dan etnik. Karena itu, pengembangan produk yoga di Bali harus berbasis kepada budaya dan etnik Bali sehingga bisa menjadi daya tarik wisman ke Bali. Daya tarik yang berupa keunikan budaya dan etnik ini menjadi pembeda daripada pariwisata yoga di Bali, dengan pariwisata yoga di tempat-tempat lainnya di dunia.</p><p>Kata Kunci: Pariwisata Yoga, Keunikan, Pengembangan Produk</p>
