|  | | | | Title | Does the sea divide or unite Indonesians? Ethnicity and regionalism from a maritime perspective
( Document )
| | Author(s) / Editor(s) | Adhuri, D.S. | | Description | The Indonesian Government argues that the sea bridges the many islands and different peoples of Indonesia. Politically, this might be appropriate as a means of encouraging people to think that wherever and whoever there are, they are united as Indonesians. However, when this ideology is used for maritime resource management, it creates problems. One issue derives from the fact that people do not think that the Indonesian sea is ‘free for all’ Indonesians. It is argued that people, however vaguely, talk about ‘we’ and ‘they’ in defining who has the right to a particular fishing ground and who should be excluded. By analysing conflicts that have taken part in different places in Indonesia, it is demonstrated that ethnicity and regionalism have been used as the defining factor of ‘We’ and ‘They.’ In particular contexts, ethnicity and regionalism define whether fishermen can access marine resources. Thus, at the practical level the sea does not unite Indonesians, and it is in fact, ethnicity and regionalism that divides the Indonesian seas. | | Keywords | MARINE RESOURCES; RESOURCE MANAGEMENT; FISHING RIGHTS; DISPUTES | | Geography Keywords | INDONESIA | | Content Language(s) | English | | File Location | | | Publisher | Management in Asia-Pacific Program, Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies, The Australian National University | | Publication Location | Canberra (Australia) | | Publication Date | 2003 | |
