CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
A. BACKGROUND
Globalization is a special phenomenon in human civilization that continues to
move in a global society and are part of the global human process. The presence
of information and communication technologies to accelerate this process of
globalization accelerated. Globalization touches all important aspects of life.
Globalization creates new challenges and issues that must be answered, solved
in an effort to harness globalization for the benefit of life. Globalization itself is a
term that appeared about twenty years ago, and started so popular as a new
ideology about five or ten years. As a term, globalization is so easily accepted or
known to the public throughout the world. The discourse of globalization as a
process characterized by the rapid development of science and technology so
that he could change the world fundamentally. Globalization is often discussed
by many people, ranging from economic experts, until the sellers ad. In the
words of globalization contains a pengetian will the loss of one situation in which
the various movements of goods and services between countries around the
world can move freely and openly in the trade. And with the opening of one state
against another, that goes not only goods and services, but also technology,
consumption patterns, education, cultural values and others. The concept of
globalization according to Robertson (1992), refers to a narrowing of the world as
incentives and increase our awareness of the world, namely the increasing global
connectivity and our understanding of the connection. Here the narrowing of the
world can be understood in the context of the institutions of modernity and the
intensification of the reflexive consciousness of the world can be better
perceived culturally. Globalization has many interpretations from various
viewpoints. Some people interpret globalization as a process of downsizing of the
world or make the world as like a small village. Others say that the globalization
of the world community is pooling the efforts of the lifestyle, orientation, and
culture. Another understanding of globalization as claimed by Barker (2004) is
that globalization is a global connection of economic, social, cultural and political
is increasingly leading to different directions around the world and penetrates
into our consciousness. Global production of local and global product localization
Globalization is a process by which events, decisions and activities in parts of the
world that one can carry important consequences for various individuals and
communities in other parts of the world. (AG Mc.Grew, 1992). The process of
globalization was initially marked progress in the field of information technology
and communications. The field is driving globalization. Of progress in the field is
then affect other sectors of life, such as political, economic, social, cultural and
others. A simple example with internet technology, satellite dish and TV, people
in the outside world will be able to access news from other parts of the world
quickly. This will be an interaction between communities world wide, which will
ultimately influence each other, especially in the areas of culture, such as the
culture of mutual aid, visiting sick neighbors and others. Globalization also

PART III DISCUSSION


A. GLOBALIZATION AND CULTURE
Echoes of globalization, which had begun since the end of the 20th century, has
made the world community, including the Indonesian nation must be prepared to
accept the entry of outside influence on all aspects of national life. One aspect
that affected the culture. Associated with culture, culture can be interpreted as
values (values) are embraced by the public or the perceptions held by citizens of
various things. Or culture can also be defined as its form, which includes the idea
or ideas, behavior and results of behavior (Koentjaraningrat), where such things
happen in our traditional arts. Therefore the values and perceptions associated
with aspects of psychiatric or psychological, that is what is contained in the
nature of mind. These psychological aspects become important if realized, that a
person's behavior is strongly influenced by what is in the minds of those
concerned. As one of the ideas and the discovery of a person is art, which is a
subsystem of culture for cultural aspects of the Indonesian nation is one of the
nation that has a diverse wealth of value, including the arts. Folk art, one part of
the culture of Indonesia was not spared from the effects of globalization.
Globalization in a culture can evolve rapidly, it is certainly influenced by the
speed and ease in gaining access to communications and news, but this would
backfire and become a problem of its own most crucial or important role in
globalization, namely the fact that the development of science pengertahuan
controlled by developed countries, not developing countries like Indonesia. Those
who have and are able to mobilize the international communications instead of
developed countries. As a result, developing countries, like Indonesia are always
worried about the lag in the flow globalisai in various fields such as politics,
economics, social, cultural, including our art. The discourse of globalization as a
process characterized by the rapid development of science and technology so
that he could change the world fundamentally. International communication and
transportation have eliminated the boundaries of each nation's culture. Each
nation's culture tends to lead to globalization and the world that involves human
civilization as a whole. Kemoni Simon, a sociologist from Kenya said that
globalization in its natural form will raise a variety of cultures and cultural values.
In this natural process, every nation will try to adapt their culture with new
developments so that they can move on and avoid destruction. But, according to
Simon Kimoni, in this process, countries should strengthen their cultural
dimensions and maintain the structure of values that are not eliminated by a
foreign culture. In this framework, the various nations should get useful scientific
information and add to their experience. Associated with the arts and culture, a
Kenyan writer Ngugi wa Thiong'o named to mention that the behavior of the
Western world, especially America as if he were throwing bombs against the
people of the world's cultures. They tried to destroy the traditions and indigenous
languages so that the nations of the confusion in the quest for national cultural
identity. The author believes that Kenya is a foreign culture in power in many
nations, who once imposed by imperialism, are now done in a more spacious
with the name of globalization.
B. GLOBALIZATION IN THE TRADITIONAL CULTURE IN INDONESIA

The interplay of natural phenomena is the interaction between communities.


Through interactions with various other societies, the Indonesian people or
groups who inhabit the archipelago (before Indonesia was formed) has
undergone a process influenced and influencing. The ability to change is an
important trait in human culture. Without that culture is not able to adjust to
changing circumstances. Changes that occur when this happened so fast. Only
within one generation of many developing countries have tried to implement
changes in culture, whereas in developed countries such changes take place
over several generations. In essence, the Indonesian nation, as well as other
nations, developed due to outside influences. Progress can be generated by the
interaction with outsiders, this is what happens in the process of globalization.
Therefore, globalization is not just about economics but is also related to
problems or issues where the value of cultural meanings and meanings are
bonded in it still means .. Indonesian society is a pluralistic society in various
ways, such as cultural diversity, natural environments, and geographic region.
This diversity of Indonesian society can be reflected also in a variety of artistic
expression. In other words, it can be said also that the various community groups
in Indonesia can develop a very distinctive artistic. Art has developed into
models of knowledge in society.
C. CULTURAL CHANGE IN GLOBALIZATION; ART is the defender and marginalized
Cultural changes that occur in traditional societies, namely the change from a
closed society becomes more open society, from the values that are
homogeneous to the pluralism of values and social norms are salh of the impacts
of globalization. Science and technology have fundamentally changed the world.
International communication and transportation facilities has eliminated the
boundaries of each nation's culture. Each nation's culture tends to lead to
globalization and the world that involves human civilization as a whole. For
example, specialized in the field of mass entertainment, or the nature of mass
entertainment, the meaning of globalization it has become more pronounced.
Right now every day we can listen to a movie on tv shows that roots of the
developed countries like the United States, Japan, Korea, etc. through the
television stations in the country. Not to mention the international television
broadcasts that can be captured through the satellite dish that is now
increasingly owned by people of Indonesia. Meanwhile, other arts, popular arts
are presented through a cassette, VCD, and DVD which comes from abroad even
more widespread presence in our midst. Such facts provide evidence of how
countries have managed to cutting-edge technology rulers in control of the
globalization of culture, especially in third countries. Transcultural event like that
will inevitably affect the existence of our art. Whereas our traditional arts are
part of the repertoire of national culture that needs to be preserved. At the other
with increasingly sophisticated information technology such as this, we are
shown by the many offers of alternative entertainment and more diverse
information, which may be more attractive when compared to our traditional
arts. With a satellite dish can watch the various entertainment shows that are
global from different parts of the world. Such conditions inevitably create a more
traditional art tersisihnya Indonesia from the Indonesian public life will be full of
meaning in Indonesian society. For example, forms of artistic expression of ethnic
Indonesia, both the people and the palace, is always closely related to the

agricultural community ritual behavior. With the advent of social change that
comes as a result of industrialization and market economy, and globalization of
information, the art we began to shift towards the commercial dimension of art.
Art-art that is starting out rituals and loss of function. Even so, it does not mean
all of our traditional art disappeared. There are a variety of art that still show
their existence, even creatively continue to expand without having oppressed the
process of modernization. The rapid pace of information technology or
communication technology has become a powerful means of cultural diffusion,
as well as alternative options are more diverse entertainment for the wider
community. As a result people are not interested anymore to enjoy various
traditional performing arts which previously familiar with their lives. For example,
the traditional puppet art of Bharata, contained in House Puppet People Bharata
Jakarta now looks deserted as if no visitors. This is unfortunate given the puppet
is one form of traditional Indonesian art-laden and rich with moral messages, and
is one of the agents of planting the values of good morals, in my opinion.
Another example is the art Ludruk that until the 1980s continue to thrive in East
Java today is experiencing a "suspended animation". Puppet people and ludruk a
small example of the traditional arts began terdepaknya result of globalization. It
may be that such phenomena are not only experienced by traditional Javanese
arts, but also in a variety of expressions of traditional arts in various places in
Indonesia. Yet it does not mean all traditional arts die just like that with the
proliferation of globalization. On the other hand, there are several performing
arts that still exist but have undergone changes in function. There is also art that
is able to adapt and transform themselves with communication technologies that
have been fused with the life of the community, such as traditional arts
"Ketoprak" which was popularized to the screen by a group Srimulat. Above facts
show ketoprak real art has its own fans, especially ketoprak presented in the
form of broadcast television, not ketoprak stage. In terms of staging or
representation, ketoprak including traditional arts that have been proven able to
adapt to changing times. In addition there are other art ketoprak who survive
and are able to adapt to cutting-edge technology that is shadow puppets. Some
well-known puppeteer skin like Manteb Ki Ki Anom Suroto Sudarsono and fixed
interest of society, be it tapes the play, and the show directly. Courage Indosiar
that since a few years ago leather puppet show every night of the week will
suffice as proof of the amount of public interest against one of the treasures of
our national culture. Even the National Museum was still maintaining the
existence of traditional arts such as wayang kulit leather puppet to hold every
few months and gamelan music every single week or once a month, held at the
hall Kertarajasa, the National Museum.
D. EFFECT OF GLOBALIZATION OF CULTURE AND NATION
Currents of globalization has raised the nation's cultural influence on the
development of Indonesia. The swift flow of information and telecommunications
actually causes a tendency that leads to the waning of the values of cultural
preservation. Development of 3T (Transport, Telecommunications, and
Technology) mengkibatkan reduced the desire to preserve the culture of their
own country. Indonesian culture that used to hospitality, mutual cooperation and
courtesy replaced by Western culture, such as promiscuity. In Tapanuli (North
Sumatra), for example, twenty years ago, her teenage children are still many

who are interested to learn dance tor-tor and tagading (hobo musical
instrument). Almost every week, and the rituals of life, there are always invited
adolescent stage as a vibrant entertainment culture. Currently, when the
technology is getting advanced, ironically regional cultures are increasingly lost
in the community, even can only be watched on television and Indonesi Indah
Miniature Park (Taman Mini). Whereas cultures that area, if managed properly
can be a cultural tourism in addition to generating revenue for both national and
local governments, can also be a promising area of work for the surrounding
community. The other thing is the impact of globalization is in the use of
Indonesian is good and true (the language is also one of the nation's culture). It
is not unusual in Indonesia to name a second person singular with Mr., Mrs., Mr.,
Mrs., Brother, you are compared to you or you as a sense of value judgments.
Now there is a tendency among young people who prefer to use the Indonesian
language dialect of Jakarta as the mention of the word I (I) and lu (you). In
addition we often hear young people using Indonesian with mixed-mixed english
like OK, No problem and Yes', even curse words (swearing), although we often
hear in western films, often spoken in everyday life days. The words are spread
through the TV media in films, commercials and soap operas simultaneously with
the scattered lifestyle and fashion. Clothing styles that were once teenagers
Indonesia upholds the norms of decency have changed following the
development of the era. There is a tendency for young women in big cities wear
skimpy and tight clothes that show off certain body parts. This minimal
perpakaian culture embraced the films and foreign magazines are transformed
into the patron-patron Indonesia. The swift flow of information, which is also
characterized by the presence of the Internet, participating `donate` to change
the dress code. Tight clothes and mini-environment has become the trend of
young people. One of the success of the spread of Western culture is the
widespread notion that science and technology developed in the West is a
universal. Influx of western culture (in packaging science and technology)
received `good`. On this side of globalization has been affecting various systems
of social and cultural values of East (including Indonesia) so as to open all the
conflicts between technology and eastern values.
E. ACTION encourage GLOBALIZATION OF CULTURE AND GLOBALIZATION OF
CULTURE IS TO ANTICIPATE
The role of government policy that is more directed to economic considerations
rather than cultural or culture can be said to be detrimental to the development
of culture. Jennifer Lindsay (1995) in his book entitled 'Cultural Policy And The
Performing Arts In South-East Asia', reveals the cultural policies in Southeast Asia
today effectively change and ruin the traditional performing arts, either through
interference, excessive handling , policies without direction, and no attention is
paid to the government's cultural policies or cultural context. In a more narrow
observation we can see the behavior of government officials in dealing with the
development of folk arts, where the number of interference in determining the
object and try to change to fit the demands of development. Under these
conditions the meaning of folk art itself becomes bland and there is no sense of
art again. Seeing this trend, government officials have made the artist is seen as
a development object and asked to adjust to the demands of the symbols of
development. This of course ignores the issue of maintenance and development

of art as pure, in the sense of actually supported by a profound artistic value


rather than just serve as a model course in development. Thus, the longer the
folk art may not have sufficient space for natural growth or natural, therefore,
indirectly folk art eventually became heavily dependent on models of
development that tend to be more modern and rational. As an example of this
problem we can see, for instance art that is native to the area Betawi, cokek
dance, dance lenong, and so it is set and adjusted by the government to meet
the demands and objectives of the government's political policies. Government
officials here helped organize a normative, so that the Betawi arts are no longer
visible authenticity and tend to be boring. To anticipate things that are
undesirable to the authenticity and genuine development for the folk arts, the
government needs to restore the function of government as patron and protector
of art, traditional art without having to interfere in the aesthetic process.
Admittedly, the folk art today requires funds and government aid making it
difficult to avoid the involvement of government and for the people of these
artists is something that is also hard to make their own decisions in accordance
with the authenticity (oroginalitas) is desired such folk artists. Therefore the
government must 'diving' to really role as protector that protects the authenticity
and development of folk art aesthetically without having to change and adapt to
political policies. The globalization of information and culture that occurred
before the new millennium as it is today is something that can not be
circumvented. We must adapt to it because a lot of benefits to be gained. It must
be recognized that communications technology as a product of the
modernization of huge benefit to the creation of dialogue and democratization of
mass culture and evenly. Globalization has enormous impact on culture. Contacts
culture through mass media awareness and provide information about the
existence of other cultural values that differ from those owned and known so far.
Cultural contact provides an important input for the changes and developments
of values and perceptions among the public involved in this process. Arts of
Indonesia which has the force of various local ethnic groups also can not escape
the influence of this cultural contact. So to make adjustments to the changes
necessary developments which are global but still characterized by local or
ethnic forces. The globalization of culture that are so rapidly must be anticipated
by strengthening national cultural identity. Various traditional art that really be
an asset to the wealth of national culture should not only be a tool or a slogan of
the policy holders, particularly the government, within the framework of the
purposes of tourism, politics and so on. During this coaching and development of
traditional art that made the government agencies is still limited to the element
of mere formality, without touching the essence of life art is concerned. As a
result, instead of developing the traditional arts and sustainable, but it is
increasingly shunned society. Thus, the challenges faced by the folk art is quite
heavy. Since the era of communication technology and a highly sophisticated
and modern society is faced with many alternatives as an option, either in
determining the quality and taste. It is quite possible existence and the existence
of folk art can be viewed with one eye by the people, when compared with
modern art which is the impact of pop culture. To deal with the things mentioned
above there are several alternatives to overcome, namely the increase of Human
Resources (HR) for folk artists. In addition, restoring local government officials as
a protector and patron, and not the other way and just destroy it for the sake of
power-oriented development project funds or funds for development in the

economic field alone


CHAPTER IV CONCLUSION
A. CONCLUSION
The influence of globalization on the one hand actually causes negative effects
for the culture of Indonesia. The norms contained in the Indonesian culture slowly
began to fade. The unceasing rush of technology is accompanied interinsik
values imposed on it, has raised the issue of globalization and eventually cause a
new value of the unity of the world. Radhakrishnan in his book Eastern Religion
and Western Though (1924) states "for the first time in human history,
awareness of the unity of the world has stamped us, whether he likes it or not,
East and West have merged, and never again separate. It means that between
the west and east there is no difference. Or in other words our culture merged
with a foreign culture. If the east and west are united, there masihkah hallmark
of our culture? Or are we lost in the culture of other nations without leaving the
slightest our value system? Therefore it is necessary dipertahanan socio-cultural
aspects of Indonesia as a nation's identity. The trick is filtering into the culture of
Indonesia and the preservation of national culture. For people who are trying to
develop traditional art became part of modern life, will certainly continue to
modify the forms of art are still berpolakan past to be a commodity that can be
consumed by modern society. Because the real art is beautiful and expensive. Art
is the wealth of Indonesia which is priceless and not owned by foreign nations.
Therefore, as the younger generation, which is the heir to the national culture,
art and culture should preserve for the future of our children and grandchildren.
B. ADVICE - ADVICE
From the above discussion, it can be done several measures to prevent the
shifting of culture, namely: 1. Governments need to review perturan-regulation
can lead to a shift in the nation's culture 2. Society needs to take an active role
in preserving local culture of each nation in particular and culture in general 3.
The perpetrators of the mass media business needs to hold a selection of various
news, entertainment and information provided so as not to cause a shift in
culture 4. Society needs to select the appearance of a new culture of
globalization, so that the incoming cultures are not detrimental and negative
impact. 5. Society must be careful in the means to imitate or accept a new
culture, so the impact of globalization in our country had little influence on the
culture which is our national identity.
