Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This book is an exploration of modernity and its reversals
in an Indonesian city. It traces the social dynamics that brought this city into being as a
self-consciously (if somewhat unevenly) modern community in late colonial Java. It also
analyzes the factors that contributed to the community's decline beginning in the 1960s. It
shows how residents of this town (mostly engaged in the manufacturing of culturally and
economically valued Batik) created their own distinctive forms of modern social life, but
also how, under certain circumstances, modernness can give way to traditionalism, turning
back the trajectory of progress usually associated with modernization.
