The Alor-Pantar Archipelago is still one of the most under-researched areas of Indonesia. However, in January 2009 I was able to collect data on anthropomorphic sculptures in the Tanjung Muna area of Pantar. The study used photographs of objects that had been purchased recently by European private art collectors in order to elicit responses regarding the local mythology. I was also able to interview local traders as well as the dealer who sold the sculptures, which allowed me to document information regarding their origin and former use, as well as the circumstances under which they had found their way on to the international art market. Traditional marriage rules as well as black magic played a central role. Furthermore, in the course of my research by chance I learned of a contemporary ancestor cult connected to the construction of a new clan house and of traditional (pre-Protestant) forms of healing.
„In doubt we publish: Wikileaks as a threat to diplomacy and democracy?“ –unter diesem Titel diskutierten am vergangenen Mittwoch im Anschluss anden WikiLeaks Workshop Wolfram v. Heynitz vom Planungsstab des Auswärtigen Amtes, Prof. Dr. Christoph Bieber von der Universität Duisburg-Essen und Guido Strack vom Whistleblower Netzwerk e.V.Unter der Moderation von Prof. Dr. Nicole Deitelhoff und Prof. Dr.Christopher Daase sollten einerseits generelle Fragen des Leakens thematisiert werden, aber auch Fragen nach dem Einfluss auf die internationale Diplomatie, dem Recht auf Geheimnis und den Möglichkeitenzur Regulierung von Leaking...
Eigentlich sollte es bei der heutigen Pressekonferenz in London um das neue technische System der Plattform gehen – SSL sei nicht mehr sicher, man bastele an einem „state-of-the-art secure submission system“, hieß es. Doch davon war auf der Pressekonferenz keine Rede mehr. Stattdessen wurde die „neue Phase“ von WikiLeaks mit einer neuen Veröffentlichung eingeleitet: den #SpyFiles...

Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam is a multicultural province within a multicultural state. Hence, its political leaders not only face the need to integrate ethnic and cultural diversity into a regional framework, but also have to define Aceh’s role within the Indonesian nation. During its violent past which was characterized by exploitation and military oppression, there were good reasons to emphasize sameness over diversity and to build up the consciousness of a unified Acehnese identity. From both an emic and an etic perspective, it is today widely accepted that there is such a thing as a homogeneous Acehnese culture which is rooted in a glorious, though troublesome, history of repression and rebellion and shaped by a strong Islamic piety. Even if it is true that Acehnese history has created a strong regional identity, it must not be forgotten that people living in this area belong to various ethnic and cultural groups and that they represent a rich variety of different cultures rather than simply a single homogeneous culture. As a matter of fact, the practises and discourses of Islam here also vary depending on the cultural background of the people. As elsewhere in Indonesia and beyond, world religions have to adapt to local customs, have to be appropriated by the local people, and have to be indigenized. This is the reason why adat still continues to play a role in every local context, even if it has been treated with suspicion in many parts of Indonesia since the Dutch colonial administration began using it as a counterforce against Islam in order to implement their divide-and-rule strategy. With this article, I wish to shed some light on the complexities of Acehnese culture, as it encompasses numerous very distinct local cultures and this reflects on the general significance of culture for the construction and reconstruction of post-tsunami Aceh.
Guerillas win as long as they do not lose, and government forces lose as long as they do not win. In Afghanistan, this adage holds, once again, true. Western civilian and military leaders want us to believe that insurgents and criminals are running out of options. Indeed, after much initial stuttering, NATO has transformed into a veritable counter-insurgency machine, with the United States shouldering most of the burden. Casualties among the Taliban and other enemies of NATO are enormous. Enormous, too, is the coalition of NATO and Afghan troops, approaching half a million soldiers and militia-types.
Europe’s reaction to the recent upheavals in North Africa clearly exposed one thing: The EU’s Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), including its Security and Defence branch (CSDP), were steamrolled by a multitude of overtly national policies. The resulting cacophony of views made a mockery of the aspiration to present a united European position to external players. It also thwarts the claim of the EU being a more credible security actor in the wake of the Lisbon Treaty reforms. While commentators have moaned about a CFSP and CSDP ‘fatigue’ for quite some time now, the likelihood that what used to be the most dynamic EU policy field of the last decade will enter a period of prolonged hibernation never seemed as high...
Der Hype um WikiLeaks ist verpufft – das wurde bereits in der Begrüßung von Prof. Dr. Nicole Deitelhoff, Prof. Dr. Christopher Daase und Dr. Thorsten Thiel von der Universität Frankfurt klar. Doch eine Reihe ungeklärter Fragen und Probleme rund um das Prinzip Leaking bleiben zurück. Um diese zu diskutieren, begaben sich am vergangenen Mittwoch einige Interessierte zum Workshop “Leaking: Sicherheitsbedrohung oder subversive Demokratisierung?” an die Goethe-Universität Frankfurt. Dabei sollte es um grundlegende, wissenschaftliche Fragen gehen, die im Hype um WikiLeaks und Julian Assange oftmals untergegangen sind: Wodurch werden Leaks legitimiert und wo verläuft die Grenze zu Illegitimität? Was ist die politische Funktion des Leaking? Können oder müssen Leaks neutral sein? Und wie gefährlich sind sie für Sicherheitspolitik?...
