PROSES AKULTURASI KERUANGAN KOMUNITAS MUSLIM KAMPUNG JAWA DI PERKOTAAN TABANAN BALI

Abstract

The traditional rules of Bali regulate the use of space as a form of palemahan in the Tri Hita Karana concept. The arrival of Muslim migrants forms the Muslim community of Kampung Jawa which still exists today. The high intensity of interaction between Muslims and Hindus has resulted in spatial acculturation related to the rules of palemahan. This research aims to find out the process of spatial acculturation of the Muslim community in the indigenous territories of Balinese Hinduism. The method used was a case study method with the Kampung Jawa area as a case unit. Case evidence was obtained through observation and in-depth interviews to the informant who are considered to have knowledge of the variety and spatial acculturation processes that occur and supported by other secondary data. This study found a different process and time of formation in each type of spatial acculturation that occurred. In general, there were several stages of the spatial acculturation process, namely: (1) social interaction, (2) Muslim understanding of Hinduism, (3) Muslim adaptation, (4) Hindus understanding of Muslims, (5) acculturation, and (6) expansion of space, actors, and type of spatial acculturations.
