This study aims to explain how the ecological wisdom is manifested in Karo and Kasada. Karo and Kasada are Tenggerese traditions rooted in oral literature. Both traditions are closely related to environmental wisdom which is interesting to be studied in regard with ecological issues that have become global issues. The data in this study include library data and field data. The library data come  from written information and reports on  two rituals obtained from articles, journals, and research reports. The field data come from interviews with Dukun Pandita in Tengger, talking about  rituals and folklore that underlie, them and observation of ritual events. The data is then categorized into descriptive units and interpreted using ecocriticism approach. The results show that the nature, nurture, and culture intertwine with the essence of Karo and Kasada so that every ritual practice cannot be separated from the symbolization of the relationship between humans and nature, which is about how humans and all practices of culture respect and maintain harmonious relations with the environment.

This article describes efforts to develop one of the tourism areas in Kampung Biru Arema (KBA), namely the “Dolanan” (Traditional Games) Area. The “Dolanan” Area is one of the five tourism areas in KBA which is being developed collaboratively between a team from the Faculty of Cultural Studies Universitas Brawijaya and local community. The development of the area is based on local wisdomby introducing a variety of traditional games, namely: “tapak gunung (engklek)”, “congklak (dakon)”, and “gasing” (spinning tops)presented with modern designs so that they are acceptable, especially for the young generation. The “Dolanan”Area is expected to become a distinctive KBA identity as well as a medium for educational tourism that introduces the richness of local culture in the packaging of community-based tourism.

Kampung Biru Arema (KBA) adalah salah satu kampung wisata di kota Malang. Kampung tersebut belum memiliki konsep kampung wisata yang baik sehingga hanya mengandalkan aspek estetika mural dan cat berwarna biru di setiap rumah tanpa arah pengembangan rute wisata yang jelas. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan penyusunan rute wisata berdasarkan potensi wisata yang ada di KBA sehingga pengembangan wisata dapat terarah dan berkesinambungan. Untuk melakukan hal tersebut kami menerapkan metode pengembangan wisata model Community Based Tourism (CBT, yaitu: mengikutsertakan anggota masyarakat dalam pengambilan keputusan, memastikan masyarakat lokal menerima manfaat dari kegiatan kepariwisataan, dan memberikan pendidikan kepariwisataan bagi masyarakat lokal. Kegiatan ini menghasilkan sebuah rute wisata di KBA yang disusun dengan mengintegrasikan 5 (lima) area wisata secara berurutan, yaitu Area Wisata Sejarah, Area Wisata Dolanan, Area Wisata Mitigasi Bencana, Area Wisata Arema, dan Area Wisata Basa Walikan. Dalam prosesnya, perumusan rute wisata melibatkan peran serta aktif warga dalam memberikan masukan dan keputusan terkait identifikasi dan pemetaan yang dilakukan. Luaran dari kegiatan ini adalah peta digital berupa rute wisata KBA bagi para wisatawan.Kata kunci: Kampung Biru Arema (KBA), Community Based Tourism (CBT), rute wisata, peta wisata.AbstractKampung Biru Arema (KBA) is one of the tourism villages in Malang. The village does not have a good tourism village concept so that it only relies on the aesthetic aspects of the murals and blue-painted houses without developing a clear direction of tourist route. Therefore, tourist route mapping which is based on tourism potentials in KBA is needed so that tourism development can be directed and sustainable. To do this we employ the premise of Community Based Tourism (CBT) by ensuring the active involvement of local people in the process of tourism development and management. The activities resulted in a tourist route on the basis of 5 (five) tourism areas, namely Historical Tourisn Area,. “Dolanan” Tourism Area, Disaster Mitigation Tourism Area, Arema Tourism Area, and “Basa Walikan” Tourism Area. In the process of determining the route, it involves the active participation of local people in providing input and decisions related to our identification and mapping of the location. The output of this activity is a digital map of KBA containing informative tourist route for visitors.

This research discusses discourse of nationalism in Garin Nugroho’s Soegija, a biopic which premiered in 2012. The film is chosen because it presents the story of Soegijapranata, an intellectual who is not from dominant nationalist groups, during the era of independence movement; he is neither a prominent military figure nor a figure from the largest religious group in Indonesia. This film is analyzed to investigate its position in ideological contestations emerging after the Reformation, particularly after the 2000s. Seymour Chatman’s postulates regarding story and discourse in narrative structure of fiction and film (1978) is used as a theoretical framework for this research. The results show that discourse of nationalism is presented in the narrative structure of the film in the form of arguing the idea of universal humanity in the context of Indonesia as a nation. This effort is portrayed by the main character’s intellectual struggles against shallow primordialism that influences both Indonesian people’s perspectives during independence movement era and foreign people’s point of views, the colonizers, which are represented by subversive actions of the Dutch and Japanese in Indonesia. The values of universal humanity that have been adopted into the spirit of nationalism are stated through the main characters’ statements and actions. It can be concluded that the concept of nationalism in Indonesia is said to be born from a long struggle against oppression and injustice. This concept has become a dominant ideology which remains relevant, as implied in Soegija.

Ranuyoso is one of the villages in Lumajang Regency which has the potential to become a tourism village. This potential is supported by the existence of an 8 (eight) hectare unused land owned by Perhutani, whose management rights are handed over to villagers, but its utilization has not been maximized to support the program for establishing a tourism village. Therefore, this community service program is the first step towards realizing the development of Ranuyoso as a tourism village. The activity carried out is in the form of data collection as a reference for mapping the concept of the Ranuyoso tourism village. By applying the principles of Community Based Tourism (CBT), this activity involves the active role of villagers in Focus Group Discussions (FGD), interview, and field observation. The results of this activity show that Ranuyoso village has several potentials in the form of hills, springs, fruits, and distinctive arts and culture that can be developed as assets of a tourism village. These potentials are the basis for formulating the concept of Ranuyoso tourism village, namely a tourism village that presents the integration of water tourism, culture and arts tourism, fruit tourism, and adventure tourism. In addition, this activity also resulted in a draft of cooperation agreement between Faculty of Cultural Studies Universitas Brawijaya (FCS UB) and Forest Village Community Institution (LMDH) as a legal basis for discussing cooperation related to the development of Ranuyoso..
