- タイトル： SHIFTING CULTIVATION AND TRIBAL CULTURE
- 要旨:
- Today, many communities have lost their identity. They cannot trace back
to their origin. Many have forgotten the names of their forefathers of
few generations back. Along with, they have lost many of their traditional
culture. Lose of culture means, lose of identity. But the Tribal ethnic
groups of hidden land, in the Arunachal Pradesh located in the north easternmost
corner of India, have still preserved their originality through shifting
cultivation. Most of us know shifting cultivation only from the felling
of trees, burning and fallowing but never tried to understand how these
practice has helped in preservation of our tradition and culture. As per
Jhum Cultivation Regulation of India 1947, the tribal people have the right
to own individual forest land for shifting cultivation. There are 26 major
tribes recognized by the Constitution of India Amendment 1950, Part XVIII.
Why this people could maintain the traditional identity is mainly due The
Inner Line Regulation of East Bengal 1873, during the British resign. According
to this regulation, there is a restriction on free movement of people from
mainland. No citizen of India, other than the indigenous people the state
has right to settle in the state.
- Till today, around 90% of them practice shifting cultivation comfortably
without creating much ecological problem as found to be in other parts
of the world. Still the state maintains about 82% of its area under forest
cover. They maintain their age old traditions. The ritual performed in
every stage of cultivation has helped them to keep the traditional system
of memory of their source of origin. During performance of these rituals
they always sing about the history of their forefather and the route of
migration. They have a unique system of memory of their genealogy. Besides,
they have a rich Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). Their house type,
ritual and festivals and food habits are directly or indirectly related
to the practice of shifting cultivation.
- The question is, how long these ethnic groups will be able guard the rich
mother and father’s culture from the forces of modernity and globalization.
It needs a serious discussion among intellectuals.

- タイトル：Lao Generations: Turning from the past towards the future
- 要旨:
- Tourist images of Laos emphasize its alleged ‘unchanged traditions.’ But
Lao society is changing, and this is reflected in generational changes.
The changes began after the ‘collapse of communism’ in the early 1990s
and seem to accelerate as the years progress, causing something of a moral
panic among the older generation. This paper will report on a research
survey done by the Lao Institute of Social Sciences which attempts to investigate
attitudes about youth in Laos, and on the substantive changes in society.
- It will raise questions about how to conceptualise generational change
in the modern world.
- 発表者について:
- Grant Evans is a Senior Research Fellow in Anthropology at the Ecole francaise
d’extreme-orient in Vientiane, Laos and is a part time advisor to the Lao
Academy of Social Sciences. For many years he was a professor of anthropology
at the University of Hong Kong.

- タイトル：Crossroads of Southeast Asia Scholarship and Librarianship in the U.S.:
A Visionary and Adventurous Journey
- 要旨:
- For background introduction, I will highlight my academic training and
professional experience in curating international Southeast Asia collections
and engaging in research and development and networking using the Cornell
and Berkeley models. I will elaborate on the various challenges and accomplishments
of my extensive fieldwork and library acquisitions trips to Asia, Australia
and Canada for collecting rare or hard-to-acquire research materials for
the scholarly community at Berkeley and beyond. I will share my insightful
experience in creating the first international Han-Nom Rare Book Special
Collection Digitization Project from conception to execution at the National
Library of Vietnam for worldwide access. To facilitate the preservation
of and access to retrospective Southeast Asia newsprint holdings in the
U.S. and beyond for interlibrary loan, I will share my proactive leadership
role and my initiative as Chair of the international Southeast Asia Microform
Project governed by the Center for Research Libraries in Chicago. Last
but not least, I will briefly discuss the scope of my current research
project which will include onsite visits, institutional archives and library
holdings explorations as well as vis-à-vis interviews with relevant Southeast
Asia community within the context of Japanese scholarship on Southeast
Asian studies.

- タイトル：Climate and Disaster Resilience of Cities
- 要旨:
- ***Climate and Disaster Resilience of Cities***
In spite of increased investments in the area of disaster management in
recentdecades, the losses continue to mount. One of the emerging reasons
for the current trend of increasing impacts of disasters is the unpredictability
of natural hazard events coupled with the tendency of human settlements
to move to vulnerable locations including coastal areas in search of economic
gains. The urban areas are naturally the most affected due to concentration
of habitat and resources. In the current context, it is rather challenging
to make resistant urban growth. Instead, resilience is becoming more widely
accepted, where certain vital infrastructures need to be resistant, but
the urban systems to resilient enough to cope with the climate related
hazards. In this talk, I will highlight the issues of resilience through
regional, national, city and community based studies. The key emphasis
are: how to enhance actions at local levels, how to link the actions to
city services, and how the plans can be implemented through multi-stakeholder
collaboration.

- タイトル：Nature, Culture and History: Early Thoughts on Floods in Manila and the
Humanosphere
- 要旨:
- As Manila is inundated once again by floods - brought about unexpectedly
by heavy monsoon rains - this presentation offers preliminary thoughts
on an historical inquiry into the relationship between human and natural
environments. Filipinos are often thought to be a resilient people in the
face of adversity (see cultures of disaster, Bankoff 2003). This may be
seen in the numerous community-based disaster management projects operating
in the country. In my fieldwork with the informal settlers in Barangay
Banaba in Manila, many of them have embraced disaster risk reduction efforts
implemented by a people’s organisation.
- A historical approach to disasters pays attention to context (including
local history), long-term processes, events, and subjective notions about
change and continuity. History supports the main ideas of disaster studies
in some ways, but also complicates them. Processes like urbanisation, development
and environmental degradation have rendered Banaba’s informal residents
vulnerable to floods and landslides. This collaborates the contention by
scholars (Blaikie et al. 1994, Pelling 2003) that the root causes of people’s
vulnerability to disaster are often (macro-)historical. Conversely, their
ability to cope with hazards is based on recurring experiences over an
extended time; my interviewees tell me, ‘Floods can’t stay forever,’ ‘The
flood is only a short time,’ ‘Flooding is regular for us .’ Their attitudes
towards living in flood-prone areas combine the agency and resignation
that are typical of poor urban migrants: ‘*kung meron lang*’ (if only there
was a choice), ‘This is the place I chose.’
- However, there are also signs that communities and cultures of disaster
are not homogenous or shielded from change. Informal settlements in Banaba
received numerous new migrants before and after Typhoon Ondoy in 2009,
straining social cohesion among the established residents. Ondoy also appears
to be a catalyst for change in disturbing one’s sense of historical continuity.
Residents recall in particular the speed and height of rising waters: ‘Ondoy
was the first time,’ ‘it was the end of the world.’ Traumatic experience
led many residents to support disaster risk reduction efforts; ‘Every time
there is rain, you must prepare for another Ondoy.’ Yet, it is also possible
that repeated instances of such trauma may weaken people’s ability to cope
with hazards, even when they are offered organisation and technical resources
to do so. This point is worth noting as the most recent floods have lasted
longer than Ondoy and may be changing people’s ideas about ‘the end of
the world.’
