Indonesian
culture since ancient time is always changes, because
of the society who really want a change of culture
and the culture changes do rapidly because of influence
globalization into Indonesian culture.
The elements of globalization also included into local culture, national culture,
and global culture, because of people should have much
efforts to preserve and use indonesian culture
along with all of indonesian culture.
Beside that also handling about all of globalization impact which take a
positive impact and negative impact. The pattern of society life now are
different from past, it also due to of globalization. Besides that, globalization
impact are development of advanced technologies that help humans but can also
damage the mental and moral youth. Therefore, all of globalization elements
needs to reviewed first.
Indonesian
is biggest island states, from sabang to merauke and each region has a different cultures,
the different cultures are characteristic of each of their respective regions.
Indonesian is a country that has cultural also known
as the country with the social environment culture that is characterized by the
values of life are friendly, people who had manners, and peaceful society. In
Indonesian also a lot of ancient remains a culture
that is diverse neighborhood well in the form of a complex as human activity,
traditional, and all it needs to be preserved, be
preserved and utilized.
But
as the development of the times and in the world culture in the era of
globalization had made a significant difference
and the changes that could lead to a positive direction and towards negative,
all the changes must be wary if the changes to negative point, positive impact that can be felt from globalization
is the progress of technology that has been giving up easy for everyone to
communicate, etc. The negative impact that is like the values of Indonesian culture
when it was contaminated with western culture so this really have an impact on
the pattern of human life, for example, the manner of dress, manner of social,
foods and drinks banned and the most
unfortunate is to start the erosion of awareness of the local culture which is something that for generations such
as customs, dances, traditional songs etc.
Care
and public awareness has decreased and dispose no matter
of traditional culture, an effort to preserve and maintain the culture has dropped
so much a culture which claimed by other countries, such as pendet dance,
batik, reog ponorogo, and many more. This is because the people not respect and
not interest of local
cultures.
Culture
in society is always changes and changes occurred when a cultural contamine from other culture. The
impact of globalization changes life patterns of Indonesian society, especially
in local culture affected, change of culture are happens
can not be separated from the role of the community. All the things that
concerns about globalization needs to be reviewed, how the impact of
globalization to local culture, national and global? How
to preserve the heritage of culture that has been there? All the questions it
needs to be thorough and find answers to keep the Indonesian culture with the
values of culture.
To
be able cope with the change of culture as a result of globalization needs to
be reviewed how the impact of globalization on culture, how the preservation
and utilization of cultural heritage first, after that Indonesian people has to participate in maintaining and preserving
it, the changes
happen because of
the nature and human nature is always wanted to change and to get something new.
To
deal with the impact of globalization, first to be assessed in detail the new
elements that go to in it find where the culture that is positive and which
elements of a culture that is negative. Because if globalization is not balanced with concern and sensitivity public on the elements of
the culture that goes to just accept and implement the elements and the values
of globalization, it will be on the situation are concerned, the elements of
the culture which will be removed and a long time, the Indonesian culture will
lose an identity.
Indonesian has many culture that is extremely diverse and it
also had different, every ethnicity to build and develop their culture is
through these experiences ever experienced and also through knowledge, which he so that the nation has always evolved over
time and the development of the time. The presence of the influence of other
cultures to culture the local will make the changes, both changes that are
supportive.
Although
the changes that actually carries a negative impact. Get in the elements of
cultural foreign actually been happening since time immemorial, for example the
presence of Hinduism and Islam have an effect on the cultures of the nation in
Indonesia the western part of such as Java and Sumatra, in addition to the
culture of other nations who came into the country like the Portuguese,
Spanish, and the Netherlands also affects cultures of the regions in Indonesia,
a lot of culture which makes the local culture is in a new and confusing, where
the situation on the role of the community, whether to retain cultural needs of
locality in the values of local original or culture foreign to bring bad things
to culture.
In
each of culture have values that must be complied with and values are also used
as a basis to act and behave in everyday life. Various cultural values contained
in terms of culture are maintained and preserved through the cultivation,
protection and carried out by their families and all walks of life. And if it
ignores the values of the nation culture or region was regarded as a resistance
and cheat
about of an ancestor who had
left it.
Place
and the pattern of life between villagers and city has been on the development
of culture, city people who tend to ignore and disregard the values of cultural
area and it emphasizes the modernization, it is also due to the influence of
cultural global, who currently have plagued the world were both the world
children, adolescents and parents. In contrast to the life patterns of rural
communities are still primitive but has a culture, to consider that the values
of culture which is owned by better than the values of other culture. For
example, in a rural areas is still using traditional in their daily
communication, thus their respective members of the community will identify
themselves with the elements of a culture that exists as something that should
be held so that from where the values of primordial ooze of national culture is built and developed.
Indonesian
have a diverse culture
and tribal peoples varies from one area with other areas, but all the
difference is not something that should be questioned, but it actually is
something that must be united as the slogan "Unity in diversity",
which means different but still one and as the contents of by these vows the
joining of your youth on 28 October 1928 after it then all elements of the
Indonesian people united even in a culture is different. Guidelines to build and develop culture is
listed in the UUD 1945 (Artice 32). It is
said :
“Negara
memajukan kebudayaan nasional Indonesia di tengah kebudayaan dunia dengan menjamin
kebebasan masyarakat dalam memelihara dan mengembangkan nilai-nilai budayanya.”
It is
mean nation culture is culture as a result of the cultivation of the Indonesian people. Old and original which
there are as the tops of culture in areas across Indonesia are considered as a nation
culture. The business culture that has to go to the progress of culture,
culture and unity, with not reject the new materials from cultures alien who
can to develop and enrich the nation culture and increase the degree of humanity.
Nation culture can be used as the identity of the Indonesian state
that gives the characteristics and typical of Indonesia through works that have
been created. Nation culture can in the form
of elements or symbols used as basic and key in the association of everyday
living like a symbol of culture of daily life is helping, the use of the
Indonesian language as a means of communication with the used as a language
unifying, in addition to instill a sense of the soul of nationalism, in the
lecture is still applied the subjects of Pancasila and Citizenship. In
addition, need to build awareness that culture is culture that belongs to all
the people of Indonesia so in a way is expected to be together keeps its
culture of the Indonesian state and feel that this culture is culture itself
should be maintained and preserved.
At
the time local culture grown to be part of our culture, global culture emerging rapidly. Globalization easily can be
directly seen and enjoyed by the public so that it is in the near future can
bring an enormous impact on people's lives, the influence of culture the global
can have a positive impact can also have a negative impact.
Globalization give a positive
impact for example the progress of a sophisticated technology so as to provide
convenience for people in communicating with others without knowing the time
and place, but it also benefits the ease with which we often use and enjoy
every day. But in addition to the positive impacts there is also a negative
impact associated with the phenomenon of social, cultural, among others, such
as the environmental damage as a result of technological advances that are used
in the exploitation of natural resources in a lot of money, and it will be very
detrimental to the community, especially people who are still stuttering
technology.
The
patterns and habits of the city and the community is the hedonism or the desire
to control things that smelled of the world dankonsumerisme, especially in big
cities is often the case of dispute between the rich with which is rich in so
that it has resulted in social inequality in society. The economy only to
pursue eksistensidiri. Even the community feel proud with the cultures of
traditional areas, especially people who live in the city. They're assuming it is
something that no model to follow even be considered as a culture of primitive.
Because
in the culture globally there are two kinds of side has to offer namely the
positive and negative sides, then in receiving the culture has to be really
good at reviewing it, sort out with the impact which that brings the positive
side, thus the people of Indonesia will continue to keep the nation culture.
Entry of globalization era in the context of culture in the tradition in
Indonesia has introduced new values, the values of the new can affect the lives
of individuals, society, environment, social and environmental tradition. The value and the elements of the new
change a very significant to the customs and traditions.
For
example on everyday, language learning also a foreign language this is because
there are some people who think that learning a foreign language a bit cooler
than the same language area that is already outdated and prestige. This
resulted in lack of knowledge of the new generation of regional language not
even hint of people who today who can not use local language, such as the java
language, when this rare for young people who are using the java language of
fine if talking to people who are older, this is because the limited knowledge
about the java language. As soon as possible be
addressed then all of the culture is set to fade and there is no conservation
and management if there is no people are aware of the importance of our nation
culture.
Every
region in Indonesia has a culture that is different, culture, customs and
traditions is the hallmark of their respective regions, and this includes the
rules of living together in society, as a basis in the association, and the
most important is how we can maintain the value of culture in the mid of
globalization. At the time of our ancestors, Indonesia is considered to be of
mutual help rescue high respect for others, courtesy upheld
as when a child is young or younger to talk with older people using language
that is smooth and with courtesy than that of Indonesia famous friendliness of
the people, but for now all the circumstances and the condition is changed
significantly. This change occurs within the context of simple as well as in
the context of a very complex, simple examples in everyday life is how to
dress, how to dress that was once polite, closed and not glamorous but the
situation is now different. Not a few of the young people who today dress more
open, less according to the circumstances and the situation, glamor and
extravagance, starting from the state of simple then into the complex by
imitating western culture example is culture free sex today has become
commonplace, hedonism, the habit of people to live rah-rah, drinking rampant,
drug use, degradation of moral and mental greatly decreased and the effects of
technological progress very sophisticated also affect the morale of society
from young children to parents though.
According
to Jennifer Lindsay in his book, 'Cultural Policy And The Performing Arts In
South-East Asia', told the policy of cultural in Southeast Asia when this
effectively change traditional art , both in the
intervention, treatment, policies without direction, and no attention is given
the government to the policy of cultural or the context of cultural.
Indeed,
the advancement of technology has made it easier in many
aspects of community life, but besides that it also has a negative side which
is fatal for example, with easy access to information using the Internet can be
misused to access things that are negative as pornography, porno-action that it
very damaging to the moral personality especially if the access is children, it
would be a negative impact to prospective future generation. In addition,
through television can also give a great influence on all levels of society,
both negative and positive effects influence. Moreover, the television into
something that is global in everyday life and this can be witnessed by all
people directly so that the impact will rapidly spread, to the current television institutions along with global circulation that
occurs as the advertising, promotion. In addition due to the globalization of
television networks that broadcast many of the foreign network, it will greatly
influence the development of culture.
The heritage of culture
may include the legacy of physical and the legacy of non-physical, the legacy
of the basically has distinctive features to their respective regions.
Therefore any heritage of culture need to be preserved and utilized to heritage
of culture is still awake. Preserve culture means
indirectly had to fix the people of Indonesia, because in the life of society
culture is something complex does not run by itself but involving all members of
the community, thus the strong culture in a society then the harmony and peace
will be achieved in the community, for example in the society is still
maintained the culture of mutual cooperation and if culture is still awake then
in the establishment of the gaps and social jealousy.
In
an effort to preserve their culture there must be a component that became the
executor, the executor component may include the community. Culture is
fundamental for the community so expect all levels of society can participate,
in addition to the public there is also a government that is responsible for
the implementation, besides educators, politicians, journalists also have to
participate in a way act in accordance with their respective roles. As an
example of a teacher must be able to educate their students to develop a sense
of care for the nation's culture. This way, if a sense of awareness is embedded
in the souls of the young generation for the future of culture will be
maintained and will terbenahi. If all walks of life have implemented awareness
and awareness of the culture of the nation, it is expected that the culture
will be maintained and preserved well.
In
addition to the components of the executor is also no action is carried out, in
terms of conservation measures that can be implemented is the need to know
beforehand cultures possessed, whether it be cultural customs and traditions
and cultures that exist in everyday life. Once it receives the values of the
culture due to globalization with open but that does not mean directly accept
these values and apply them in culture, but prior to filter where the value
is good and which are bad value.
It
is still evident in this life is the preservation of the culture by preaching
using the gamelan as practiced by Emha Ainun Najib, or better known as Cak Nun,
Cak Nun other than a propaganda also a humanist therefore besides preaching to
spread Islam, he also preserve gamelan Javanese culture is used as an
intermediary in the message. It is for example in the preservation of culture
as well as a characteristic of the culture of their respective regions.
According
to Effendi (in Tuloni Nani et al, 2003: 18) argues that "cultural heritage
is very appropriate if used for human resource development"
From this quote
means that in improving the quality of human resources must first be put
forward which does not accept the moral cultural values that are negative,
thus manusianyapun people or resources will be arranged in a pattern of life.
Culture also has
the function of each elements it contains, and the function is no link between
the elements one with the other elements, therefore, if there is a change in
one element, the other element that will change as well.
According
to Radcliffe-Brown and Kaplan (in Nani Tuloli et al, 2003: 10) is a cultural
system has certain requirements to allow the existence, or cultural systems
that have needs that must be met in order to survive, and if not met then the
system will disintegrate and die
From this quote
function of culture can be maintained if there are conditions and the parties
that support the course of the culture, because in the preservation of a
culture that is very important is people or people who have that culture, and
function of culture can be maintained if it can align with the development and
the progress of time but if you can not sync them then there is going to change
the functions that are not supposed to.
