Naming the Witch explores the recent series of witchcraft accusations and killings in East Java, which spread as the Suharto regime slipped into crisis and then fell. After many years of ethnographic work focusing on the origins and nature of violence in Indonesia, Siegel came to the conclusion that previous anthropological explanations of witchcraft and magic, mostly based on sociological conceptions but also including the work of E.E. Evans-Pritchard and Claude Lévi-Strauss, were simply inadequate to the task of providing a full understanding of the phenomena associated with sorcery, and particularly with the ideas of power connected with it. Previous explanations have tended to see witchcraft in simple opposition to modernism and modernity (enchantment vs. disenchantment). The author sees witchcraft as an effect of culture, when the latter is incapable of dealing with accident, death, and the fear of the disintegration of social and political relations. He shows how and why modernization and witchcraft can often be companions, as people strive to name what has hitherto been unnameable. (Provided by publisher)

Portrait de la société indonésienne. Le plus grand archipel du monde, peuple de plus de 220 millions d'habitants, est devenu une société inégalitaire, traversée de courants culturels opposés, majoritairement musulmane. Avec plus de 140 millions d'habitants, Java mène le combat pour la création, a l'horizon 2020, d'un pays équilibré et modéré, disposant d'une maturité économique et politique.

La tradition contre le progrès ou le progrès contre la tradition, pourquoi reprendre ce vieux débat ouvert au Siècle des Lumières ? Les idées simplistes et les préjugés accumulés depuis plus de deux siècles continuent à se bien porter, malgré des connaissances aujourd'hui beaucoup plus profondes des sociétés non occidentales. Au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et de la décolonisation, la Chine, l'Inde et l'Indonésie se sont lancées dans un vaste processus de développement. Après plus de trois décennies, il est possible de dégager les grandes tendances de leurs systèmes politiques, économiques et sociaux, de voir comment ces vieilles civilisations réagissent au contact de la modernité, quelle que soit sa forme. L'Inde et l'Indonésie n'ont pas connu de rupture avec leur passé, parvenant à digérer une partie des innovations culturelles, socio-politiques et technico-économiques. Même en Chine où les changements ont été plus brutaux, ceux-ci ne se laissent pas enfermer dans la dichotomie tradition-modernité. Cette esquisse comparative tente de poser quelques jalons pour la compréhension des trois pays les plus peuplés d'Asie.

The ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute commissioned a nationwide survey in Indonesia, called the Indonesia National Survey Project (INSP) to enhance understanding of economic, social, and political developments in Indonesia. President Joko Widodo's approval rating hovers at around 68 per cent, and respondents generally think that the President has made improvements to the economy, although there are concerns with the price of necessities and job-seeking prospects. The Widodo administration scores well in infrastructure development, which is its signature policy thrust. Roads, education and electricity supply remain the top priorities for respondents, while corruption is still considered the most important problem facing Indonesia today. Some key issues that have emerged during the Jakarta gubernatorial election, such as punishing blasphemy against Islam and voting a Muslim leader into office, receive significantly high support from respondents, suggesting that these issues have currency beyond Jakarta and the election. On the political front, state institutions, especially the Army, are more highly trusted than politicians. Key elements of Indonesia's political infrastructure, such as democracy, Pancasila, and decentralization are supported by an overwhelming majority of respondents. Indonesians identify strongly with Indonesia and consider traditional economic partners such as Malaysia, Japan, Singapore and ASEAN to be most important for Indonesia.
