Editor's Note:
Sejak lama dilukiskan sebagai cagar budaya, Pulau Bali di Indonesia sedang menghadapi berbagai tantangan fundamental bersama berubahnya panorama politik, agama dan ekonomi. Buku ini mengulas efek-efek desentralisasi dan demokratisasi terhadap perpolitikan Bali, serta meninjau peran yang dimainkan cendekiawan urban dalam memperkuat identitas Bali.Bali membutuhkan dunia luar (wisatawan, modal dan tenaga kerja murah), tetapi rakyat pulau ini merasa terancam oleh kekuatan luar (investor besar, dekadensi Barat, dan Islam). Henk Schulte Nordholt mencirikan Bali sebagai benteng terbuka, yang menerima pengaruh luar seraya berjuang melindungi diri darinya. Dalam buku ini, penulis mengupas bagaimana Reformasi di Indonesia telah mempengaruhi hubungan kasta dan merombak hubungan kekuasaan di tingkat provinsi, kabupaten/kota, dan desa. Sambil menyoroti peran geng-geng kriminal dan konflik kekerasan di tingkat lokal, Schulte Nordholt dalam karya ini juga mempertimbangkan janji yang ditawarkan demokrasi lokal.(from backcover)
