Abstract

In response to the Mount Merapi eruption in 2010, the government had conducted several disaster risk reduction programs. However, the programs had ironically threatened hamlets as communities regarding their rights to practice their local knowledge and live in their home ground. This study employed a qualitative method involving five hamlets from December 2019 until February 2020. The data were collected by employing participatory observation and depth interviews, involving the ritual organizers, participants, citizens, guests, and other audience. Spirited by ritual theory as political action, this research showed that the hamlets formulated volcanic ritual reproductions into three forms which were the delegitimation of the disaster risk reduction programs, the reinforcement of Kejawen identity, and the showing off the safety and prosperity. Those reproductions were recognized by the emergence of new ritual processions in the forms of parades, pilgrimages, offerings, and enhancements of ritual formalization and celebrations. Those reproductions positively impacted the literacy and recognition from both the government and general society that those hamlets have been living a safe and prosperous life in Merapi, even though they are located in disaster-prone areas.
再现火山仪式,呼吁在默拉皮火山易受灾地区生活的权利
为了应对2010年默拉皮火山爆发,政府实施了几项减少灾害风险的计划。然而,具有讽刺意味的是,这些项目威胁到了作为社区的小村庄,让他们有权实践当地知识并在自己的家乡生活。这项研究采用了一种定性方法,从2019年12月到2020年2月,涉及五个小村庄。数据是通过参与式观察和深度访谈收集的,涉及仪式组织者、参与者、公民、客人和其他观众。这项研究以仪式理论为政治行动的精神,表明小村庄将火山仪式复制品分为三种形式,即取消减少灾害风险计划的合法性、强化凯戈威德人的身份以及炫耀安全和繁荣。这些复制品被新的仪式游行的出现所认可,这些游行形式包括游行、朝圣、供奉以及仪式形式化和庆祝活动的加强。这些复制品对识字率产生了积极影响,政府和普通社会都认识到,尽管这些小村庄位于易受灾地区,但它们在默拉皮一直过着安全繁荣的生活。
