Conception
of
Balinese Culture
The
Cultural Changing, 1936-1989
How
is the changing of the balinese
people in 1930s compare to nowadays?
There many anthropologist have
agreed that a few decade is a
very tight duration for the real
changing is happened in a basic
cultural aspect, for instance
care for the child, religion,
the relatives, marriage, and law.
The two of the Balinese culture
characteristics are receive all
the traditional cases and technology
that could be penetrated without
change the norm of basically of
human life, and the uncapability
and undesire to reconsider to
the future development. The balinese
people have been made the appropriateness
and avoidness for the detail culture
that are connected to 'the highest
centre of Hinduism-culture, Chinese,
and Holand' for a few century
ago. They feel that the Balinese
culture concern with the unusefull
changing as a reason of the cultural
contact. However the characteristic
of the Balinese people are still
not changed, eventhough there
are many exploitation, the harshness,
and the modern technology.

Bali
has a consistent hystiry of the
face of assimilation and the harmony
of the other culture that entrance.
The changings that happen together
with the stability have proved
now. Increasingly, the main of
economical strongness are dominated
by the large-scale merchant of
Chinese, Javanese, and the investation
of financial capital are from
abroad. However the local of Hinduism-Balinese
still held the power of political
restraine and the administration
as before. Eventhough the materialism
increase and influence the Balinese
people, especially for the young
generation, and the television
program still influence, but these
are happened in the strenghten
context of conservative culture.
These can be proved that they
still wear a traditional shirt
at the time they are watching
'drama' and the traditional dances
that are exposed at the traditional
places, moreover at the famous
tourism-places like in Ubud and
Kuta Beach.
There
are no big changings of the Balinese
culture as seen in the main element
of basic characteristic: by keep
the balance of the strength and
other support factors based on the
Balinese-Hinduism Religion. However,
the appropriateness with the bothers
of the culture balancing will be
continue and some of the mental
problem, will be the form of appropriateness,
and will be formed continually in
the form and simptomatology by the
deteminers who wide spread into
the character of the Balinese people.
