  4. タイトル：Reinterpretation of King Chao Anouvong (1804-1828) of Viengchan and Lao Historical Perception of Thailand
  5. 要旨：
  6. Recently a statue of King Chao Anouvong was erected on the bank of the Mekong River in Viangchan or Vientiane, Laos. Chao Anouvong was a king of Viangchan (r. 1804-1828), one of the Lan Xang kingdoms of Laos, when it was under the rule of Thailand. He undertook a liberation war against Thailand in the late 1820s. However, this enterprise failed, with Chao Anouvong himself together with his family being captured and brought to Bangkok, where he died. Viangchan was totally destroyed, and the Lan Xang kingdom was incorporated into Siam as Siamese provinces. Lao and Thai authorities and scholars, dealing with the relations between both countries in this period, equivocate, on the one hand, in narrating the history because of the “explosive” character of the subject and attempt, on the other hand, to defend or justify the standpoint of their own country in explaining crucial events or situations of the liberation war of Chao Anouvong. Their narratives which provide different interpretations on them seem, however, to be underlain by a nationalist sentiment in any case, though some differences in extent.

  4. タイトル：Governance of Public Service Delivery in Bangladesh: Role of Members of Parliament
  5. 要旨：
  6. This study assessed the role of Members of Parliament (MP) and other stakeholders in the governance of public services and scope for improvement democratically in Bangladesh. The study revealed that accountability of government officials to service receivers was not visible adequately. Local government bodies could not assert themselves for ensuring accountability of public service providers. Personality conflict between Upazila Chairman (UZC) and MP; UZC and Vice Chairs; and UZC and UNO (Upazila Executive Officer) obstructed formation of Standing Committees in many Upazilas. Chaotic situation in many Upazilas hindered horizontal and vertical accountability of government service providers. Upazila Parishad could not monitor public service delivery properly because of departmental plan and implementation. Majority of respondents of sample departments mentioned that they have internal evaluation system. But, the research team could not trace that to assess level of customer satisfaction. Majority of respondent MPs said that transparency, accountability, participation and integrity are inevitable for good governance and democracy in public service delivery. The study recommends that Parliamentary Standing Committees (PSCs) may review public service delivery system periodically to make that client-friendly. PSCs may examine programs and projects to identify problems and recommending solutions. Recommendations of PSCs should get priority and due importance by respective Ministries. PSCs may organize public hearing at district and Upazila levels to receive first-hand information on quality, quantity and effectiveness of public services. Time slots need to be kept in parliament session for discussion and dissemination of performance of public service delivery. MP's 'face-to-face' interaction with people may be organized and telecasted by television and radio. Government departments should present their performance in presence of MP before all cross-sections of citizens. MPs may advise Upazila Parishad to prepare a five year plan and its break up as Annual Development Plans and budgets integrating plans of transferred departments. MPs may integrate their special resource grants with Upazila Parishad Plan and budget.

  4. タイトル：Sport, regionalism, and regional history: Thailand’s founding of the Southeast Asian Peninsular Games, 1957-59
  5. 要旨：
  6. The Olympic Committee of Thailand founded the biennial South East Asia Peninsular Games (SEAP), forerunner of the region’s biggest and longest-running sporting event, the Southeast Asian Games, in 1959. Then and subsequently, organizers explicitly sought to use the games to promote regional friendship and cooperation among participating countries, which originally included Burma, Cambodia, Laos, Malaya, Singapore, South Vietnam, and Thailand. Regionalist themes were notable for the geographical make-up of the region imagined in the games, i.e. mainland Southeast Asian; the ideological make-up of this “region”, which cut across ideological cleavages in the context of the Cold War; the imagined historical antecedents of this region invoked by organizers; and the use of sport, a cultural practice, rather than politics or economics to promote regionalism. Yet regionalism was not the only force behind the establishment of the SEAP Games. In this paper, I examine how regional sentiments combined with regional history – in the form of Thai and other regional nationalisms, and the Cold War intervention of the United States – in the founding of the SEAP Games. I will also consider how these sometimes-conflicting motifs were brought to life, intentionally and otherwise, in the inaugural 1959 SEAP Games in Bangkok. Based on this discussion, I will conclude with some thoughts about regional history and the study of regionalism in Southeast Asia.

Tonan Talk by Prof. Eugenio Matibag
  1. 日時：平成25年7月4日（木）　 12:00 - 13:30
  2. 場所：京都大学東南アジア研究所稲盛財団記念館２階東南亭（201室）
  3. スピーカー：Prof. Eugenio Matibag, Department of World Languages and Cultures, Iowa State University
  4. タイトル：Cosmopolitan Nationalism: The Filipino Ilustrados Abroad
  5. 要旨：
  6. What is the meaning of nationalism in a world of globalizing interconnections? Does it make sense to see in national integration a “template,” as Thomas Hylland Eriksen puts it, for the processes of globalization? Do nationalist movements challenge colonial hegemony while seeking an accommodation within a global system of states and transnational agencies?
  8. Possible answers to these questions may be gleaned from the writings and personal histories of the nineteenth-century Filipino expatriates called “ilustrados.” Definitions of the term ilustrado include the dispersed group of Filipino educated elite who denounced the dysfunctions and abuses of Spanish colonial rule, who agitated across borders in networks and associations originating outside the Philippines. These Filipino activist intellectuals produced a body of works that illustrate what Benedict Anderson has called a “long-distance” nationalism with reformist or revolutionary implications; what invites closer examination is the manner in which this cadre of nationalist thinkers, orators and authors issued a call for a new cosmopolitanism based on notions of new ethnic identities and global socioeconomic justice.
  10. Beginning with a reflection on Juan Luna’s painting Spain Guiding the Philippines to the Light of 1887 and considering Nick Joaquin’s thesis on the formation of the Philippine culture as an Hispanic process, Professor Matibag will go on to survey seminal contributions to the discourse of Philippine nationalism in the works of Juan Luna, Pedro Paterno, Jose' Rizal, Marcelo H. del Pilar and Apolinario Mabini. All makers of a modern Philippines, these ilustrados sought to advance the representation of a "colony" as a "nation," at the same time demonstrating the way in which nationalism, by a broadening of political culture and espousal of universal values, participated in the processes of an early globalization.
  11. スピーカーについて：
  12. Eugenio Matibag, professor of Spanish in Iowa State University's Department of World Languages and Cultures, was born in Cavite and grew up in Southern California. He has published research on Latin American and Philippine literature in the journals Revista Hispa'nica Moderna, Humanities Diliman, Catauro, Postmodern Culture, The Journal of Caribbean Studies, Dispositio, Hispame'rica, and in various anthologies and encyclopedias. His two books are Afro-Cuban Religious Experience (1996) and Haitian-Dominican Counterpoint (2003). He is currently at work on a study that examines the discourse of Philippine nationalism in the context of globalization in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

  4. タイトル：Hyper-Royalism as Public Culture in Thailand: Cold War Insecurity, Visual Culture and Magic
  5. 要旨：
  6. The success of the Thai monarchy as a sacred institution in our time is due to its ability to reinvest its rich cultural capital in modern public sphere. To assure his people of social normalcy and prosperity in the context of the Cold War and post-Cold War security anxiety, the popular Dharma-raja epitomizes the great Thainess via visual consumption. But the success comes at a huge cost, especially as it may come to its end.

  4. タイトル：Current Studies on Ethnoastronomy in Indonesia
  5. 要旨：
  6. This presentation will introduce current studies on ethnoastronomy in Indonesia. In the first part, I will give a brief history of astronomy in the country as well as a short background of ethnoastronomy in general. Some results of the studies conducted by Indonesian and foreign researchers for several ethnic groups with various aspects of cultures will be presented. Indeed, knowledge of the starry sky and its constellation was common in many ethnic groups amongst the natives of Indonesian archipelago. A season-keeping system based on appearance and disappearance of certain stars or star clusters was recognized in many ancient ethnic groups and applied mainly by farmers to the agricultural cycle. Knowledge of the sky was woven into the textures of life in such forms as : mythology, astronomy-related folklores, ritual behaviors. A recent study suggests that an alignment of Borobudur-Pawon-Mendut temples is similar with the alignment of the Orion Belt stars. In the latter part of this presentation, I will give results of a study in exploring astronomy-related culture of the indigenous Sundanese people, the ethnic group of 43 million people who live in west part of Java island.

  4. タイトル：Cultural Economic Development in the Film Industries of Viet Nam, Cambodia and Laos
  5. 要旨：
  6. Film scholarship on postcolonial Southeast Asia often privileges the French colonial period of the three nation-states of Việt Nam, Cambodiaand Laos. Today, however, provocative cultural production and economic redevelopment is taking shape in peninsular Southeast Asia. The layered colonial and imperial histories of these three countries and this region as a whole impose certain constraints on the post-Cold War redevelopment of these national film industries, while also allowing for unique transnational innovations. Southeast Asian peninsular films and filmmakers are cross-referencing one another's economic developmental models, governmental initiatives, celebrity cross-over market potentials, connected land and aerial borders, East/West collaborations and North/South co-productions.

CSEAS Colloquium by Dr. David Streckfuss
  1. 日時：平成25年5月31日（金） 16:00 -

  3. スピーカー：CSEAS Visiting Research Scholar
  4. タイトル：Lèse-Majesté as Crisis of Monarchy: A Comparison of present-day Thailand and prewar Japan
  5. 要旨：
  6. Thailand and Japan are the two largest monarchies in Asia. Both are constitutional monarchies and democracies where their respective monarchies are “above politics.” The monarchies in these two countries are largely popular and respected. But they are different in one key way: Japan’s monarchy persists despite being perhaps the only monarchy in the world today with no lèse-majesté law. Meanwhile, Thailand, with a very-much active lèse-majesté law, finds itself amidst a continuing political crisis of which the monarchy is a part.
  8. In the run-up of World War Two, Japan hosted the richest concentration of lèse-majesté cases of the 20th century. So far, Thailand is host to the 21st century’s record high lèse-majesté cases. From 1936 to 1944, Japan saw an almost 1,800 persons arrested for the crime whereas in Thailand from 2005 to 2011 has seen almost 1,000 charges brought for prosecution in the lower court for lèse-majesté.
  10. A comparison of the lèse-majesté record in these two nations illuminates our understanding of the pre-war Japanese legal and ideological constructs and Thailand’s present practices and tribulations. What can we learn about key aspects of the pre-war Japanese state and the present-day Thai state by comparing statistics of those charged with lèse-majesté, the practices and adjudication of courts, and the strategies used by defendants? What do the lèse-majesté experiences of these two countries tell us about the tension between democracy and authoritarianism in constitutional monarchies? And what have been the effects of the eventual resolution of the lèse-majesté issue in Japan, and what lessons can be learned for Thailand’s future? How has each country’s experience with the law affected its politics and its own take on democracy?
  11. スピーカーにつて：

  14. At CSEAS he has been working on an article covering Japan’s historical experience with le`se-majeste' and writing a book that examines monarchy and le`se-majeste' in the modern world. A historical section looks at le`se-majeste' in Imperial Germany and Japan. Another section compares present practices of le`se-majeste', with a special emphasis on European monarchies. A final section places Thailand’s le`se-majeste' experience into this historical and comparative framework

  4. タイトル：A Preliminary Examination Of Pa’O Music In Local And National Contexts
  5. 要旨：
  6. The Pa’O, an ethnic minority group numbering close to one million individuals and inhabiting the eastern most states of Myanmar, offer a compelling case for the study of cultural (re)presentation and mediation of the performing arts within the country. Linguistically related to the Karenic groups of the region (most notably Sgaw and Pwo Karen), the daily Pa’O experience is one marked by predominant adherence to Theravada Buddhism and relatively beneficial economic and political terms resulting from an early cease--‐fire agreement and open engagement with the central Burmese government. When one considers a comprehensive view of Pa’O performing arts in contexts ranging from the Myanmar national media to local festivals and into village life, the author maintains that a range of policy and cultural factors contribute to an intellectual dissonance as one views Pa’O performance practices. On the surface, a critical view finds that the Pa’O are significantly simplified and stripped of virtuosity in the national context, presumably as a means of fitting within discourse towards national identity construction. However, performance within local contexts and the periphery demonstrate a remarkable palate of movement and musical complexity consistent with prolonged, purposeful patronage of the performing arts. Supported by the author’s own fieldwork with the Pa’O Literary and Cultural Council (a sub--‐group of the Pa’O National Organization) and field recordings collected since 2002, this paper seeks to present a nuanced investigation of Pa’O performing arts in context. The resulting work reveals not only points of conflict between the national and the local in cultural (re)presentation but also uncovers subtle assertions of agency among the Pa’O as they negotiate ongoing refinements in how their culture is understood within Myanmar.

  3. タイトル：Exploring Astronomy in the Ancient Sundanese Culture
  4. 発表者：Prof. Suhardja D. Wiramihardja, CSEAS Visiting Scholar from the Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB)
  5. Abstract:
  6. This presentation will introduce the results of a study that explores the astronomy-related culture of the indigenous Sundanese people (the ethnic group of 43 million people who live in west part of Java island). Firstly, I present an overview of research methods of the study through a literature review as well as interviews conducted with local story tellers, and visits of historical sites. In ancient times before the invention of time keeping (such as the watch), Sundanese people used natural indicators to understand traditional time to determine or name times of the day. This was based on natural phenomena: through what the Sundanese felt, saw, or heard and in tandem with the effects of the Sun’s positions. A Sundanese Calendar System, called Kala Sunda, consisting of Saka Sunda (solar-based calendar), Caka Sunda (lunar-based calendar), and Kala Sukra (star-based calendar) was known in ancient times. Surprisingly, this calendar system is still in use by the Baduy people, an ancient Sundanese community who live in an isolated region in the western part of West Java Province, potentially one of the best places to conduct fieldwork on ethnoastronomy.
  8. This presentation also discusses Pranatamangsa (time-keeping system) which was recognized by ancient Sundanese ethnic groups and applied mainly by farmers to the agricultural cycle. Agricultural people such as the Sundanese were concerned with calendrical observations which were crucial in gauging the time of planting and harvesting to insure the success of crops. The appearance and disappearance of certain stars were correlated with the seasons of the year, and reminded observers when to plough, sow, hunt, fish and celebrate other annual events. Some well-known constellations were included in Pranatamangsa, e.g., Orion which was called Wuluku (the Plough) by local people and the Southern Cross, which Sundanese named Bentang Langlayangan (the Kite). Orion indicates the time to begin cultivating rice, and the Southern Cross indicates the Southern direction which is very important for local fishermen and an indication of dry season for farmers.
  10. In the latter part of this presentation two folk-lore tales about the eclipses of the Sun and Moon familiar to an older Sundanese generation will be given.

CSEAS Colloquium by Dr. Jacqueline A. Siapno

  4. タイトル：The global in the national and local: an ethnographic study of knowledge economies and governance in Timor Leste
  5. 要旨：
  6. This talk examines the global in the national and local, in the governance systems, procedures, attitudes, and approaches in state and government institutions in Timor Leste, and the gap between rural villager’s experiences with those of consultants in the state. I am borrowing from Saskia Sassen’s proposal for a research agenda for sociology in tracing “the global in the national” – “whether an institution, a process, a discursive practice, an imaginary – that both transcends the exclusive framing of national states and also partly emerges and operates within that framing.” (Sassen 2010: 1) In addition to looking at climate change (mudansa klimatika) at the local rural district levels, I am also interested in looking at the global in the national and local in “designing” the nation-state(e.g. state iconography; National Development Plans); knowledge economies (including the re-colonization of scholarship and knowledge-production); the role of consultants (“rule of experts”), their modes of influence and institutional implications; the politics of Timor Leste’s application to the ASEAN regional governance grouping; articulations of the global in popular culture, media, festivals, supermarkets, and at its most intimate manifestation - at the level of the household and family. The longer-term research beyond this talk examines Timor Leste’s public finance and the funny business of big organizations’ climate mitigation, linking it to the idea that rents from oil and gas (the key component in Timor Leste’s foreign exchange reserves), is problematical, from both climate change consideration and how the oil fund has been managed and disbursed. Timor Leste is a young nation that is expressing ultra-nationalism and nationalist identity (however contentious these new cultural, historical, and linguistic identities may be) and yet is also paradoxically dependent on global governance advisers and on basic goods and infrastructure-building from its former colonizer/s and dominant neighbors and partners.

  4. スピーカー：Dr. Porphant Ouyyanont, Associate Professor, School of Economics, Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University
  5. 要旨:
  6. King Bhumibol's sufficiency economy philosophy (setthakit pho phiang-a just enough economy) was formalised in the aftermath of the financial crisis in 1997. Through his royal visit to various parts of Thailand, work and research, mostly in rural areas. Over many decades, King Bhumibol embraced Buddhist principles underlining a middle path, especially in developing the Thai economy in keeping up for the sustainable development in the era of globalization. Under the sufficiency economy thinking, it will help to build resilience against the risks which arise from capitalism both in internal and external conditions. The application of the thinking is applicable at all level from individuals, households, community business and government sector to the management and the development of the nation. This seminar will discuss the background the concept of sufficiency economy, its application and some evaluation of its implementation in Thai economic and social development will be provided.

Tonan Talk by Dr. Bliss Cua Lim

  2. 場所：京都大学東南アジア研究所東南亭（稲盛財団記念館201号室)
  3. タイトル：An Archive of Fragments: Temporality, Knowledge, and Constraint in Philippine Cinema
  4. スピーカー：Dr. Bliss Cua Lim, CSEAS Visiting Research Fellow
  5. 要旨:
  6. Fragile material conditions and acute temporal pressures constrain scholarship on Philippine film and media, which must always contend with a fragmented, partial archive. Such research is characterized by the scarcity of films available for study and pervaded by ineluctable archival loss. Prior to the establishment of a National Film Archive of the Philippines in 2011, film restoration and preservation languished due to a dearth of funding, lack of state support, and the deterioration of media storage formats.
  7. This talk provides a capsule history of the Philippines’ audiovisual archive advocacies, analyzing two tendencies in the archive movement: state centralization on the one hand, privatized collecting on the other. The keywords “temporality, knowledge, and constraint” in the talk’s subtitle can be briefly glossed as follows. Drawing on Jacques Derrida, Akira Lippit defines the *anarchive* as the necessary complement to the archive, the inevitability of loss that shadows forms of historical survival. Accordingly, the talk explores the anarchival temporalities that emerge in response to the impending deterioration of surviving works, as well as efforts to combat the expectation of archival decay. While the archive may be broadly understood as the enabling condition of possibility for history writing, the notion of constraint gestures at issues of loss and access as limit-conditions for historical knowledge.

Tonan Talk by Prof. Leonard Blusse
  1. 日時：平成25年4月11日（木）　 12:00-14:00
  2. 場所：京都大学東南アジア研究所東南亭（稲盛財団記念館201号室)
  3. タイトル：The Kaiba lidai shiji, How the Chinese of Batavia assessed their urban past
  4. スピーカー：Leonard Blusse, Professor Emeritus at Leiden University and visiting professor at Kyoto University Institute for Research in Humanities
  5. 要旨:
  6. Since the opening up of the Chinese archives of the Chinese Council (Kong Koan,公館) of Batavia and the publication by Xiamen University Press of the minutes (Gongan bu,公安簿) of the council meetings (11 volumes covering 1787-1868 so far) we are much better informed about Chinese urban life in Southeast Asia during the nineteenth century. The Chinese community of Batavia/Jakarta has played a prominent role in the city’s history ever since its establishment in 1619. The founder of the city, Governor General Jan Pietersz Coen had a high regard of the Chinese as a mercantile middle class. He immediately installed a prominent Chinese merchant Souw Bing Kong as the Captain or headman of the Chinese population group to help administrate his fellow countrymen. Over the years a shadow administration of Captain, lieutenants and other Chinese officers came into being as the number of Chinese immigrants dramatically increased from the 1680s onwards. The first hundred years were characterized by a remarkable collaboration and peaceful coexistence between the Chinese and Dutch citizens of Batavia largely thanks to the informal administration of the Chinese officers.
  7. But by the late 1730s when the colonial economy and the ecological situation of the city and its agricultural hinterland plunged into a deep crisis it became clear that matters were running out of control, and indeed in 1740 a massive Chinese rebellion occurred followed up by a pogrom, the so-called Chinese massacre of Batavia. A few years after this tragic event the Chinese captaincy system was re-established and institutionalized in the Kong Koan or Chinese Council of Batavia which would continue to exist until the outbreak of the Second World War. It so happens that in the first years of the nineteenth century a Chinese history of Batavia, the Kaiba lidai shiji ,was composed by an anonymous Chinese writer. This vernacular history, which looks back at the first two hundred years of Batavia, was written as a chronological year by year account summing up the more or less important events in town according to its Chinese author.　In the context of the Asia in the Age of Globalisation project hosted by Kyoto University, Prof Nie Dening (Xiamen University) and I are presently translating and annotating into English this unique historical work which provides us with insights how the Chinese experienced their own position in the early modern colonial society of the headquarters of the VOC. In my talk I hope to point out some of the main issues in the text that may be of interest to the audience and hopefully will contribute to a lively discussion.

Special Seminar On Thai-Cambodian Relations: The Questions of the Preah Vihear Temple and a Clash of Two Nationalisms
  1. 日時：平成25年3月29日（金） 14:00 - 16:00
  2. 場所：京都大学稲盛財団記念館３階中会議室　(332室)
  3. スピーカー：Professor Charnvit Kasetsiri, Professor Emeritus at Thammasat University & Associate Professor Pavin Chachavalpongpun, CSEAS, Kyoto University
  4. タイトル：Thai-Cambodian Relations: The Questions of the Preah Vihear Temple and a Clash of Two Nationalisms
  5. 要旨：
    In this presentation, Professor Charnvit Kasetsiri will briefly explore conflicts between Thailand and Cambodia, the clashes of their brands of nationalism, and the question of war and peace. Citing the example of the July 2008 registration by UNESCO of the Preah Vihear temple as a World Heritage site belonging to Cambodia, Prof. Charnvit pointed out that history had been distorted for Thailand’s domestic politics. Meanwhile, Dr Pavin Chachavalpongpun will support this argument by elaborating on the politicisation of the Preah Vihear issue in Thailand which led to numerous armed conflicts between the two countries. In the end, Prof. Charnvit will propose to set up an ASEAN Eco-Cultural Trans-Boundary World Heritage site was designed to foster close cooperation and collaboration at the Temple site.
  6. Bio note：
    Charnvit Kasetsiri is a prominent historian and Thai Studies scholar. He is Professor Emeritus at Thammasat University, Bangkok, Thailand. After obtaining his bachelor’s degree in Diplomacy with Honor from Thammasat, 1963, he pursued his 1967 M .A. in Diplomacy and World Affairs at Occidental College, Los Angeles, California, under a Rockefeller scholarship, and his 1972 Ph.D. in Southeast Asian History at Cornell University. His thesis, The Rise of Ayudhya and a History of Siam in the 14th and 15th Centuries, was published by Oxford in Asia, 1972. He served as Lecturer of History at Thammasat from 1973-2001 and founded, in 2000, the Southeast Asian Studies Program. He was the President of Thammasat University in 1995-96. He has written approximately 200 articles and a number of publications on Thai and Southeast Asian History. He has been visiting fellow at various Southeast Asian studies institutions: Kyoto, Berkeley, Cornell, Singapore, etc.
    Charnvit has launched a ‘Siam not Thailand’ campaign to rename the country as to reflect the reality about its ethnics, languages and cultural identities. His latest works deal with questions of war and peace and good ASEAN neighbor relations, especially between Thailand and Cambodia.
    Pavin Chachavalpongpun is associate professor at the Centre for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University. Earning his PhD from the School of Oriental and African Studies, Pavin is the author of two books: A Plastic Nation: The Curse of Thainess in Thai-Burmese Relations and Reinventing Thailand: Thaksin and His Foreign Policy.

Tonan Talk by Prof. Abigail Cohn
  1. 日時：平成25年3月29日（金）12:00 - 13:30
  2. 場所：京都大学東南アジア研究所東南亭（稲盛財団記念館201号室)
  3. タイトル：Local Languages in Indonesia: Language Maintenance or Language Shift?
  4. スピーカー：Prof Abigail Cohn, Department of Linguistics, Cornell University
  5. アブストラクト:
  6. The choice and subsequent development of Bahasa Indonesia as the national language following the founding of the Republic of Indonesia in 1945 is widely cited as a great success story in language planning. The results of this policy decision have indeed been very positive in terms of unity and nation building, and have led to increased literacy throughout Indonesia. The development of Indonesian has occurred in the context of an incredibly rich and complex linguistic situation, where hundreds of distinct languages have been used as native languages throughout the archipelago and multilingualism has been the norm. With increased use of Indonesian―both formal (bahasa resmi) and informal (bahasa sehari-hari)―in all facets of daily life, the question arises as to whether Indonesia will continue as a highly multilingual society or move toward monolingualism. The answer to this question has implications for language policies in Indonesia as well as for the vitality of the hundreds of languages in the archipelago at risk of endangerment.
  7. In this talk we consider this issue from the perspectives of research on language policy, language endangerment, and language ideologies, and show that only through integrating these approaches can we understand the complexity of the linguistic situation in Indonesia. As a case study, we consider current trends and shifts in use of Javanese (both Ngoko and Krama) by younger speakers as influenced by increased use of Indonesian, as well as other linguistic trends such as the increasing use of English, the role of social media, etc. Rarely if ever are languages like Javanese, with over 80 million speakers, considered endangered. However, as Indonesian takes over in more and more domains of communication and intergenerational transmission of Javanese breaks down, we are led to conclude that even a language with over 80 million speakers can be at risk, a trend that has serious implications for all of the local languages of Indonesia.

CSEAS　Colloquium by Dr. Porphant Ouyyanont
  1. 日時：平成25年3月28日（木）16:00 -
  2. 場所：京都大学稲盛財団記念館3階中会議室（332号室）
  3. タイトル：The Crown Property Bureau in Thailand and Its Role, Past & Present
  4. スピーカー： Porphant Ouyyanont, Ph.D, Associate Professor, School of Economics, Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University
  5. アブストラクト:
  6. The seminar deals with an analysis of the work and role of the Crown Property Bureau (the monarchy’s investment arm in Thailand ) from its beginning in late 19th Century until the present day, with a focus on the foundations prior to the revolution of 1932, and the re-emergence of the Bureau as a significant economic institution after 1945. Standard economic histories of Thailand largely ignore the work and the role of the CPB was a significant agent in the modernization of the country and in securing the financial independence and strength of the monarchy. In this seminar, attempt is made to a comprehensive study shown of the development, functions (including its composition, management, and decision-taking), and economic significance of the CPB. It will seek to quantify the total investments of the Bureau, to classify the broad areas of investments, and to estimate the returns on the investments. We will look also at how the 1997 crisis affected the Crown Property Bureau. The Bureau was particularly vulnerable because of its dependence on the performance of two private companies in which the Bureau was a major shareholder. Both companies, the Siam Commercial Bank and the Siam Cement Group, were in sectors that were hit hard by the crisis. The Bureau survived the crisis by making significant changes in its own management and investment policies, and by promoting similar reforms in two affiliated companies. As a result, the Bureau emerged with an income significantly higher than its peak pre-crisis level.

  3. タイトル：Policing Bangkok: Nights out with the detectives
  4. スピーカー：Prof. Duncan McCargo, School of Politics and International Studies, University of Leeds
  5. アブストラクト:
  6. This paper draws on participant observation and interview research conducted in Bangkok during the first few months of 2012. It examines the methods and practices used by a team of city detectives during near-nightly ‘raids,’ targeted mainly at local slum communities. These raids focused primarily on drug use and petty gambling, often with purpose of arresting a pre-determined number of suspects in order to meet performance indicators set by senior commanders. Most of the arrests were random and arbitrary, with an emphasis on low-income, low-level offenders. Formal procedures concerning suspects’ rights were honoured mainly in the breach. The research raises questions about the nature of criminal justice as understood by the Thai police, and the high value apparently placed on routine, ritualized arrests which have no obvious impact on levels of serious crime. The paper argues that such activities may have the effect of undermining the rule of law and eroding the legitimacy of the criminal justice system.

  5. アブストラクト:
  6. Thailand's economy before 1940 was marked by remarkably low long-term real economic growth, unusually high levels of the population living in rural areas, and limited industrialisation and urbanisation. This paper examines reasons for the lack of diversification, looking in particular at industrial development. We emphasize Thailand’s role in the world economy, sources of labour supply, and the concentration of industry in the capital Bangkok. The impact of the world depression of the 1930s on the Thai economy was only moderate, which obviated the need for state policies that might have prompted significant economic change.

  3. タイトル：Political and Social Dynamics of Coal Railway Project in Kalimantan, Indonesia
  4. 発表者：Akiko Morishita, Ph.D. (Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University
  5. Abstract:
  6. Indonesia's local politicians in natural resource rich regions are embarking on economic development projects at a rapid pace, using their influence as a leverage to broker deals with foreign investors. Democratization and decentralization has also brought about unremitting struggles over local power and resources among local political elites. Both the central government and international business forces find it hard to ignore the local power holders when venturing into local development projects.
  7. Now in the pipeline, a multi-billion dollar railway project in Kalimantan is a case that shows how the central and local government leaders are promoting infrastructure development for the extractive industries particularly for coal at a time when the global demand for it is rising. In my presentation, I will explore how the local government leaders are dealing with the central government and foreign investors in their attempt to secure financial assistance for the coal railway project, which was once part of the trans-Borneo rail network concept that failed to take off.
  8. Studies on foreign company-host government relations in Indonesia have focused on interactions between foreign firms and the central government (Khong 1980; 1986) given that the country was highly centralized during the New Order period (1967-1998) and local authorities acted as mere agents of the central government. In decentralized Indonesia today, local governments are also taking part in the negotiation processes of foreign investment projects. In my presentation, I will show the reality on the ground and how the local power players operate to secure their position in a project venture by manipulating the local communities and environment concerns regardless of the impact such development projects and mining activities will have on the Kalimantan region.

  3. タイトル：Demographic and geographic aspects of the influenza pandemic of 1918-19 in Indonesia
  4. スピーカー：Prof. Siddharth Chandra, Director of the Asian Studies Center at Michigan State University
  5. アブストラクト:
  6. This presentation draws on recently published work and ongoing research on the influenza pandemic of 1918-19 in Indonesia. The influenza pandemic of 1918-19 was arguably the most devastating global pandemic of the 20th century, taking between 50 and 100 million lives worldwide in the short span of one year. For Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous country, the most widely-used estimate of mortality from the pandemic is 1.5 million. Estimates of mortality using recently-developed statistical methods and data from multiple quinquennial population counts and two decennial censuses suggest, however, that the toll may have been much higher, with population loss (which includes higher mortality and lower fertility) in the range of 4.26 to 4.37 million. In addition, because little is known about the pattern of spread of the disease across Java, data from the Civil Medical Service of the Dutch East Indies are used to reconstruct the spread of influenza across the island, shedding new light on the nature of the epidemic.

  2. 場所：京都大学稲盛財団記念館東南亭（201号室）
  3. タイトル： Japanese Views of Siam/Thailand from the bakumatsu-period to the end of World War II
  4. スピーカー：David Michael MALITZ, JSPS funded visiting project researcher at CSEAS
  5. Abstract:
  6. In this talk the changing portrayals of Siam, later Thailand, in Japanese eyes from the mid-nineteenth century to the end of World War II shall be presented focusing on the impact of Japanese perceptions of themselves on these portrayals.
  8. Recently Japanese “Asianism“, the intellectual engagement with the regions surrounding the Japanese archipelago from the Meiji Restoration onwards, has received renewed attention after having been shunned since the postwar period for its associations with Japanese aggression. While this field of study in Japanese intellectual history remains highly contested – most importantly the questions remains open, if one can speak of an “Asianist”-ideology given the heterogeneity of the ideas understood to belong to this category – these new studies haves advanced not only the understanding of Japanese views of “Asia” but also of the Japanese views of themselves before 1945, views that continue to influence how present-day Japan sees herself and interacts with the neighboring regions.
  10. In these previous studies of Japanese “Asianism” Siam or Thailand has so far played a very limited role. This is of course for very good reasons: the kingdom was not referred to extensively in the “Asianist”-literature and more importantly there were very limited political, economic or cultural ties between the two countries before the late 1930s. But a country-study of Siam/Thailand in Japanese thought from the mid-nineteenth century to 1945 is highly interesting precisely because of these limited links, as one could argue that there was thus less motivation to portray the kingdom in accordance with tangible political or economic goals. Instead portrayals of Siam/Thailand in books and newspapers seem to mirror closely the development of Japan’s view of herself vis-à-vis “Asia”and the “West”, while also exhibiting continuities with the pre-Meiji past.

  4. タイトル：How an Alder Tree Allowed the Angami Nagas to Intensify from Shifting to Permanent Cultivation: A Case Study from Khonoma Village of Nagaland, Northeast India
  5. アブストラクト：
  6. In recent years, the discourse about shifting cultivation has often turned to how it can regain its equilibrium and stop its downward spiral into degradation. This has led to an intense interest in fallow management strategies by which fallow functions may be achieved in a shorter period of time.
  7. During his fellowship at CSEAS, the author is working on a book that compiles regional experiences on the many pressures being brought to bear against shifting cultivation and farmers’ responses to them. But his seminar will focus on one particularly compelling example of indigenous fallow management that was innovated by the Angami Nagas in Nagaland, Northeast India.
  8. The research village is a powerful and historic Angami village by the name of Khonoma, in Kohima District. Even by the time of the arrival of the British in 1832, its administrators were already commenting on Khonoma’s serious shortage of agricultural land from which to feed itself. Thus, almost 200 years ago, Khonoma was already feeling the pressures to intensify land use that have now become widespread in swidden communities across the region. Hence, it is not surprising that Khonoma became the crucible in which the system of managing alder trees in their dryland fields was perfected.
  9. This promising system focussed on management of the Himalayan alder tree ? Alnus nepalensis - that is a pioneer colonizer of disturbed land ? and would have quickly colonized fallowed fields regardless of human intervention. But by learning to manage it and better harness its agronomic properties, the Angami head-hunters were able to reduce their fallow periods to as little as two years without any reduction of crop productivity and without sending the system into a downward spiral of degradation.
  10. The Himalayan alder provided an attractive combination of needed products (chiefly firewood) and ecological services (soil stabilization and N-fixation). Necessity was the mother of invention ? and their grim shortage of agricultural land forced Khonoma’s feared headhunters to experiment with how they could better exploit alder’s agronomic properties long before agricultural scientists ever gave it a thought.
  11. Although others didn’t learn to manage it in as intricate a manner as Khonoma’s Angami, the agronomic properties of A. nepalensis were widely recognized across the region and it can be found integrated into agroforestry patterns, often as a canopy species, all across the tree’s natural habitat - across Nepal, Bhutan, Northeast India, Northern Myanmar, Yunnan, and into Northern Vietnam.
  12. The fact that an indigenous group (the Ikalahan tribe of Nueva Vizcaya) in Luzon, the Philippines, have just in the last decade, begun experimenting with how to integrate the Japanese alder (Alnus japonica) into their farming systems, suggests that they are on a similar path of discovery and innovation as Khonoma’s Angami were several hundreds of years ago ? and points to the exciting potential for farmer-to-farmer transfer of indigenous technologies that could greatly shorten the process of innovation. The wheel doesn’t have to be continually reinvented.
  13. The research carefully monitored the inputs and harvested outputs from ten cultivated fields in Khonoma. These data showed that by far, the most valuable product harvested from Khonoma’s jhum fields was the alder firewood that was harvested at the time that the fallows are reopened for cultivation. This underlines our understanding that the alder trees have allowed the Angami to intensify their land use to the point that it is really not shifting cultivation any longer ? but should more accurately be regarded as permanent land use under a food crop ? firewood crop rotation.
  14. Many observers, particularly anthropologists and NGOs, often protest that shifting cultivators can not be separated from their traditional means of cultivation ? since it is so central to their customs and very identity as a people. Yet, what is most significant about this case study is that wise management of alder has acted as a bridge in allowing this group of shifting cultivators to move effortlessly from shifting cultivation to permanent cultivation with neither cultural disruption nor any attendant environmental degradation.

  4. タイトル：Cultural Landscape Urban Design: Preserving Local Identity in the Global Environment -- Case Studies of Japanese Cities
  5. アブストラクト：
  6. The interdependency of nature and people is the foundation for production of indigenous knowledge that creates the system of cultural landscapes, which are rich reservoirs of practices on sustainable development. Furthermore, international recognition confirms the importance of expanding cultural landscape concept to a broader application in the contemporary urban setting. Cities in Asia have the potential to be role models of development with their traditional wisdom, histories and way of life manifested in city physicality. However, the rapid development of Asian cities in chasing of ‘modernity’ often resulted in the alienation of new urban landscape and degenerated sense of place.
  7. Urban design, as the art of place-making for people, offers mechanism for engagement of community towards its environment. By exploring the practices in Japanese cities of Kyoto, Osaka and Nara through related regulation and advisory tools, community collaboration and interpretation of urban experiences, the project aims to construct urban design principles with cultural landscape orientation. This presentation will provide preliminary findings of identified urban factors, which have to be fulfilled in order to maintain the continuity of historical interactions between human and nature, together with the challenges and opportunities which shield Japanese urban landscape.
  8. Brief introduction of Wara Urwasi：
  9. Wara Urwasi gained her Master of Architecture in Urban Design from School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi in 2011.
