The Ideal

Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark and the Kingdom’s only metropolis. The city embraces institutions of royalty, state and national culture as well as all the ‘people’ of Denmark. Whereas national institutions are by and large located within the walls of the fortress city, the ‘people’ are generally located in neighborhoods constructed during rapid industrialization. The article explores the idea of Copenhagen as a folkelig city, a city that accrues both legitimacy and authenticity by invoking the ‘people’ in all their social, regional and ethnic diversity in certain areas of the city. Although a down-to-earth, non-elite, folkelig community is commonly thought to derive from the daily lives of ‘common people’ in lower class neighborhoods, the article illustrates how the idea of folkelig community is intentionally evoked in efforts to revitalize such very neighborhoods deemed lacking a proper sense of community. The article discusses how two voluntary organizations run by middle class reformers invoke different aesthetics of diversity and authentic commonality in attempts to infuse a working class neighborhood undergoing urban renewal with a new sense of folkelig community. With each their own facility for voluntary sport and culture, both aspire to create venues promoting a common sociality that cross cuts social difference. While the locally based organization invokes a plural community of locals, the nationally based organization invokes a plural community of citizens. The article concludes that the aesthetic of common diversity and the performance of folkelig community are vital to the ideal of the good city upheld by Copenhagen’s mentors, organizers and authorities.

Humankind has been present on the Australian continent for at least 40 000, some say 60 000 years, remarkably adapted to the environment and having a cultural tradition appreciated by few Caucasians. White people have been here for only 200 years; and psychiatry for about half of that. We know nothing about the mental health of pre-contact indigenous peoples; but we now know a little about the ways in which mental disorders are explained and treated by traditional methods. In two centuries, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islands communities, which are very diverse, have been steadily reduced to become only 1.5% of the population. From settlement in 1788 until the 1950s, most non-aboriginal Australians were of Anglo-Saxon or Celtic origin. Since the Second World War, the pattern of immigration has greatly enriched Australian life, first through large numbers of people from the Mediterranean littoral, Western Europe and the Balkans, and more recently from south-east Asia. Ethnic diversity is now evident in most peoples' daily lives – whom you see in the street, whom you work alongside, who your friends are, what you eat and who you have as patients. So the present Australian population of 18 million has undergone a marked change in demography and lifestyle within only two generations. Like the people, psychiatry is also changing rapidly. Where are the changes taking place? What is it like to be a psychiatrist here at present? Where has there been success and where has there been failure? Where is there lots of action?

From the many existing customs, one is very good and shows the sibling relationship between the immigrant community and the indigenous people of Aru. The Aru Islands have long been a place of trade because they have great natural products. Therefore, many immigrants of the Aru island to trade. It creates a sibling relationship between the two tribes. The association is framed in the Jabu-jabu bond. This Jabu relationship is established between 6 villages in the Aru Islands and one of the immigrant tribes. This bond occurs because there is a history, so they always perform traditional rituals every few years. This bond occurs when the Koba gets the Bugis and asks for rice. The Bugis people told them about the place, and during the process of taking their rice, they were helped by people from 3 villages in the Aru Islands. In the city of Dobo the immigrants (BBM and China) are more economically developed than the natives. Therefore, there is a need for a genuine understanding of how indigenous Aru people and immigrants should coexist reasonably and grow together. This research concludes that the immigrant community must respect the indigenous population and vice versa to advance the Aru Islands area. In addition to maintaining relationships with others, awareness to protect the environment is also very important. As the people of Koba and Jabu-Jabu see rice as a source of life, it must be manifested in all the universes. In this way, God can be understood as the source of universal brotherhood. And the Aru people embody it in their daily lives.

Esta pesquisa insere-se no campo de discussão da Antropologia Urbana e Visual. O objetivo é elaborar um estudo antropológico sobre a memória coletiva e traumática da população de Itajaí/SC que enfrentou em 2008 uma catástrofe climática/ambiental. A enchente vivenciada propiciou a emergência de novas redes de interação e sociabilidade que podem ser definidas como relações de reciprocidade e solidariedade entre os indivíduos envolvidos. A construção dessas redes de solidariedade de caráter emergencial está fundamentada teoricamente na perspectiva de Lomnitz que, ao estudar comunidades populares, destacou sua centralidade constituída sobre o sistema de reciprocidade em que predominavam vínculos horizontais enquanto estratégia de sobrevivência. A etnografia da duração orienta a pensar acerca das trajetórias pessoais e coletivas que configuram as temporalidades da cidade, os tempos de crise e de continuidade da população vitimada.Palavras chave: Etnografia da duração. Redes sociais. Crise. Networks of Emergency Solidarity established from ruptures in daily lives: 2008 floods, Itajaí/SC Abstract This research belongs to the discussion field of Urban and Visual Anthropology. It consists of an anthropological study concerning collective and traumatic memory among the population of Itajaí/ SC, where an environmental/ climatic catastrophe took place in 2008. The flood experience brought into being new networks of interaction and sociability, which may be defined as relations of reciprocity and solidarity among the people involved. The analytical construction of these emergency solidarity networks is based theoretically on the Lomnitz's perspective. She, while studying poor communities, highlights the centrality of reciprocity systems that predominate horizontal links as surviving strategies. The ethnography of the duration incites us to reflect upon personal and collective trajectories which configure the temporality within the city, the period of crises and the continuity of the victimized population.Keywords: Ethnography of the duration.

By the 1720s, disorderly gatherings and protests appeared to have become an integral part of urban life in Delhi. This chapter shows how such tumults of the city marked acts of everyday political assertion by ordinary people. Relying on the gestures and practices of Islam to publicly demand “justice” in the face of “oppression,” such protests appropriated the ideal of the ‘Community of Muslims’ for their own ends. Accordingly this chapter examines a central gesture in such political protests: the popular interruption of the Friday sermon. Although it emerged in a moment of sectarian controversy in 1711, the act of interrupting the Friday sermon quickly came to serve as the key symbolic means by which the people challenged the enunciation of imperial sovereignty when it did not lend its support to them.

This project explores how lower class individuals living in a small rural Japanese community employ digital media in their daily lives and how this use of technology shapes their sense of self. Drawing from ethnographic research, it considers the locally specific ways in which individuals have embraced digital technology and how the technology’s “imagined affordances” intersect with their cultural, regional, and class identities, both locally and in relationship to national and global contexts. It argues that despite community members’ active use of digital technology, numerous barriers (both imagined and actual) continue to limit their ability to fully engage in digital culture and discusses how these barriers lead to a sense of simultaneous connection and disconnection from both urban contexts and an imagined global community. It concludes that more carefully situated local accounts of digital praxis are a necessary step toward developing a deeper understanding of the digital world.

This study aims to describe (1) relative importance of marriage, (2) desired timing of marriage, and (3) criteria for marriage readiness. Respondents aged between 15 – 30 years old, 558 individuals, not married, residents of Bandung City. The measurement is Criteria for Marriage Readiness Questionnaire (CMRQ) questionnaire designed by Carrol et al. which has been adapted to Bahasa Indonesia. Results showed that respondents perceived (1) marriage is not important/priority for them at the moment, (2) the ideal age for marriage is about 25 years old, because at this age they are mature/ready to marry, have jobs/carrier/income, and have accomplished higher education degree (bachelor/master). Different from previous findings from Carroll, respondents perceived some criteria which need not to be fulfilled before marriage: (1) have enough sexual experience, (2) have kids before marriage, (3) military service, (4) have lived together with lover, (5) premarital intercourse, (6) drinking and smoking. The present study increases understanding of criteria considered by people that needed to be fulfilled before marriage. The fulfillment of these criteria seems to play a role in the age of first marriage of the people in the city of Bandung. Further studies should be done to investigate the cultural values in perceiving marriage by the people of Bandung.

Abstract Culinary facilities are now experiencing rapid development and are increasingly popular among the public, especially teenagers in Jakarta or tourists who deliberately want to taste Indonesian culinary. This can occur due to changes in the lifestyle of the people of Jakarta in fulfilling food consumption. The people of Jakarta consume food not only to meet their basic needs, but also to find satisfaction with taste, service, atmosphere and scenery and it can be made as a hangout place with friends, colleagues, etc. With the changing patterns or trends of this society, it has prompted many entrepreneurs to build many culinary buildings in new locations. Going down the street in Jakarta to find a culinary place, is definitely very fun. Once fanatical food hunters, they are willing to take the time to hunt for their favorite dishes. Amazingly, this hunting continues to grow so that it often creates new communities. The fact that culinary activities will never die has even become a new hobby and new lifestyle for the people of Jakarta. As with the complexity of the city of Jakarta, the culinary in Jakarta is very varied. Almost all food both from within and outside the country can be found in Jakarta, one of which is in the area of Jalan Sabang which is already famous for its culinary hawker centers that can be enjoyed by any group of people, both upper, middle and lower class. It could be said, Jalan Sabang is a culinary facility for public spaces, especially for the Central Jakarta area

<p>The existence of open space in densely populated settlements in the city of Jakarta has a very important role in its function as controlling the environment, microclimate, sosial community, and economy of the population. Until now, the total area of open space in Jakarta is still below 30% as a requirement mandated by Law number 26 of 2007 due to a number of reasons, one of which is the very dense land used as a residence. in the condition of the lack of available green open space, the people living in dense settlements are not yet fully aware of the importance of the existence and efforts of structuring green open space around their settlements in supporting their daily lives. The community service program aims to increase knowledge as well as public awareness of the importance of green open space within inhabited residential areas. To achieve this goal, a consultation and pilot method for structuring green open space is used, which begins with counseling, discussion, and a pilot on how to organize green open space in densely populated areas in Meruya Selatan Village. The results obtained through the community service program are increased awareness and enthusiasm of the community to organize the open space around the residence they inhabit.</p>

Nineteenth century Orissa history is marked as a period of natural calamity and severe drought. The shortage of rainfall and the decline of food production created a horrific situation for the people of Orissa. From the ancient period,the people of Orissa were famous for their reach of rice cultivation,and till now,it is the primary food crop for most of the people of Orissa. During the 19th century,apart from being an important food crop, it was used as an essential item for trade and commercial activities. During the colonial period, society was feudal, and most of the benefits from trade were taken by the colonial Government, Zamindars, and merchants. Peasants came at the last of the list. This was one of the most prominent reasons behind the famine of 1866. Due to the high price of rice throughout the famine, lower-class people could not afford the high pricerice, and they didn’t have sufficient storage of food for any kind of emergency,;as a consequence, lower-class people became the primary victims of the famine. Here rice will be used as an essential source to study the famine in Balasore district of Orissa which was one of the city which was greatly affected by the famine of 1866 along with Cuttack and Puri. Here in this article, we are subjected to study on the famine of 1866 in Balasore district, its rice production, its society and how it reacted to the famine, and how it overcomes the famine of 1866 in Orissa.
