This research discusses the formation of the third space and articulation of the cultural identity of Hindus in Sidoarjo. There are social restrictions related to religious articulation and it is important that this minority group tries to represent their identity as Hindus in Sidoarjo. This issue is studied using the theory of the third space (space in between) from Homi K. Bhabha. The above problems are discussed through ethnographic research methods. The research approach is qualitative and uses a post-colonial perspective. The data collection method in this research is purposive, technique with observation, interviews, and documentation. The result of this research is that Hindu identity interprets and articulates its own identity. Through the setting and image of Sidoarjo regency, there are categories of Sidoarjo Hindus. This category is divided into three parts, namely Hinduism from Sidoarjo, Hinduism from outside Sidoarjo, and Hinduism from Bali. although there is a mixture of the three, they develop strategies in dealing with the dominant discourse in Sidoarjo. Their way of dealing with the dominant discourse is by developing a third spatial formation shaped administratively and militaristically, social codes and networks and through "ogoh - ogoh". The third space for Hindus in Sidoarjo is that they are productive, dynamic, and negotiate. Therefore, they voice their identity through ideas, strategies, and creative power.

One of the significant points in post-colonial literature is identity issues. The analysis of these identity issues should be focused not only on the colonized character but also the colonialist. It is obvious why post-colonial scholars are concerned with the colonized as they are the victims of colonialism. However, the colonizer must also face complex issues of identity when arriving in the colonial place. The purpose of this article is to examine the identity issues undergone by Joshua, the colonial subject, and by Clive, the colonizer, with reference to Cloud Nine by Caryl Churchill in the colonial period. The concept of hybridity by Homi Bhabha can explain the issue of Joshua’s identity since he has “double” portrays of the identity as legacy of colonialism. Bhabha created the terms the “third space” or the “in-between” to describe the condition of the colonized people. Clive as the colonizer used to be a person without particular authority in his own country before arriving to the colonial land. Suddenly, his identity has shifted into someone who has privileges and authority. The colonizer’s identity is not complete without the colonized. The colonized and the colonizer depend on each other. The colonized and the colonizer’s identities will be fragmented if one of them is missing.

Contestation on hip hop dangdut identity is analyzed using the concept of mimicry and hybridity to see ‘in-between’ space or third space that can be described the position of hip hop dangdut. Negotiations between hip hop and dangdut is a form of hybridity that takes place in ambivalence, which is mimicking and mocking, and not entirely subordinated to the cultural discrimination that occurs to the strategy of globalization. The performance and NDX music that performed on stage shows the cultural identity negotiations between hip hop and dangdut that formed in the third space.

Title: New Communication of The Architecture Firms in Pandemic Era; Following the Homi  K Bhabha Post Colonial View A new order called the new normal is a central issue at this time. The period before the pandemic which became a standard value and became a reference suddenly was not compatible with the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak. This is happening in Indonesia and around the world. Everyone is in a pandemic situation for a certain period time and there is no certainty that it will end. This of course also affects how to communicate in all aspects including the architectural bureau. New ways of communicating are carried out at architectural bureaus related to social distancing and physical distancing which are considered as effective prevention methods from the COVID-19 pandemic. The types of communication that have changed are communication with clients, communication with the team and communication with interns. There are significant differences in how to communicate from offline activities to online activities where we can still be connected both ways but not in the same place. This situation is a momentum to free the bonds of limitations that have occurred in terms of communication. We want to interpret this in the postcolonialism approach of Homi K Bhabha which is very relevant to the views of hybridity, ambivalence and the third space as a way of communicating new normal discourses.

Abstract Legal translation is a complex transfer of the text formulated in a source language into a target language which needs to take into account a wide array of factors to ensure the equality of parties to the process of interlingual communication. It is an autonomous realm of cross-cultural events within which the system-bound of legal concepts/notions deeply rooted in language, history and societal evolution of one country are transformed and integrated into the language of another, and as a result, stratified over the course of time (Mattila in Comparative legal linguistics, Routledge, Aldershot, 2006). That aspect of legal translation is called the Third Space (Bhabha in: Ashcroft B, Griffiths G, Tiffin H (eds) The post-colonial studies readers. Routledge New York, pp 206–209, 1995). The authors investigate some aspects of the Third Space including (1) Protean meanings and diverging legal cultures which are constantly remodeled, (2) cultural codes, and communication stereotypes as well as (3) communication problems stemming from stratification of communication in legal settings. The research methods applied include the semiotic analysis of legal translation strategies and potential loss of meaning.

In association with different disciplines, the conceptualization of the third space with different jargons and theoretical tropes has evolved historically. However, this article makes a brief review about the concept of the third space in relation with formation of human subjectivities. Particularly, the ideas of Arnold Van Gennep, Victor Turner, Edward Burghardt DuBois, Gloria Anzaldua and Homi Bhabha are reviewed briefly. In fact, observing the cultural rituals and how they transform human subjectivities, Gennep locates the transitory space which is crucial informing changing roles and identities of human beings. From cultural rituals, Turner takes up this idea in the process of social changes. He identifies this space in between the interaction of structured and anti structured social roles. Likewise, DuBois expands this idea in examining subjectivities of Black people. But, Anzaldua incorporates all people and formation of their identities in her analysis. Multiple factors and allegiances are responsible in forming human identities in her concept. Similarly, Bhabha concentrates in colonial and post colonial context and analyzes how the cultural interactions of colonized and colonizer deconstruct the bipolar concept of cultural identities and give birth of a new form of identities in the hybrid space of cultural interaction. Bhabha’s conceptualization is relevant in conceptualizing immigrants’ cultural identities in diaspora.

Arab-Americans are an essential part of the multi-ethnic scene in the United States of America. They are increasingly making their voices louder. However, the process of Americanization has shaped Arab-American experience and literature both directly and indirectly. The early immigrants faced the pressures of assimilation into the American society, while also trying to preserve their Arab identity in the American-born generation. Cultural issues that are related to the immigrants’ experience, like biculturalism, bilingualism and dualism, are vitally depicted in Arab-American poetry. The American-born poets of Arab descent find in poetry a way through which they could express the dilemma of the Arab diaspora. Sam Hamod is one of the contemporary Lebanese-American literary figures whose works reflect the cultural conflicts from which the immigrants and their descendants suffer. Many of his poems deal with the concept of the “Third Space,” presented by the post-colonial theorist Homi K. Bhabha. It is a hybrid space in which the hyphenated individuals are stuck. In the multicultural and multiracial environment of the United States, the immigrants’ offspring occupy this in-between position where diverse cultures meet and clash in an endless process of identity splitting.

The theorists vary in their conceptualizations of diaspora and cultural identity of immigrants. Broadly speaking, the theorizations of diaspora can be categorized into four different groups with their focus on diverse aspects of immigrants’ lives. The first classical phase describes the forced migration of immigrants including victimhood diaspora of Jewish, Africans and Armenians. The second conceptualization incorporates historical, cultural and social diversities of people living in the diaspora. Critiquing the second phase, the third group of theorists deconstructs bipolar notions of the home and host country, and celebrates the inconsistencies, and fluidities of immigrants’ identities in diasporic third space. In contrast, the fourth conceptualizations emphasizes on relevance of the origin and historical exploitation of people of poor countries. Both the historical experiences and present negotiations play decisive roles in the formation of cultural identity of immigrants.  The present article briefly reviews different conceptualizations of the diaspora and cultural identity of immigrants.
