"The discourse of cosmopolitanism and nationalism reflects the tension of the flow of globalization in the process of uniting and separating, in the commitment to facilitating and abrupt cancelation. The paper uses the arguments posed by Charles Taylor to suggest a new alternative to analyze, and to respond to the phenomenon of globalization. The four topics of the discussion are pluralism, autonomy vs. authenticity, neutrality on the part of the state, and authenticity as a new component in liberalism."

"Based on data from fieldwork in Flores, this article suggests an indigenous form of tolerance and suppleness as the model for a new form of multiculturalism in Indonesia. Many studies of nationalism have criticized the perspective that developing nation-states need 'strong nationalism. However, if we step out of this hegemonic preoccupation, we come to realize that the relevant question is not how Indonesia can keep its unity but on what conditions Indonesia can function well as a politico-economic system, keeping diverse areas incorporated in the post-modern and global contexts at present and in the future. In Flores, people have been traversing real and imagined borders since the time of the Austronesian migration and the age of Southeast Asian maritime commerce. Even after independence, Flores has had direct transnational linkage through the Catholic network and recently quite a few Catholic priests and candidates from Flores have been sent abroad. Due to the development of global capitalism, many people from mountainous areas in central Flores also go to Malaysia as low-paid labourers, and they accommodate well to the new situations. As illegal labourers, Florenese people develop social ties with the people whom they meet overseas. Even when they are arrested and forced to come home from Malaysia, they are never stigmatized in their home village. I would like to name tentatively this principle of social adaptability and political flexibility, which also orders life in Florenese villages, 'Austronesian cosmopolitanism'. I further suggest that this Austronesian principle of political flexibility could prove a useful model for the Indonesian nation-state as it struggles to adopt a new political model that prevents the escalation of retaliatory violence and allows the country to continue as a politico-economic unit."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana pendidikan multikulturalisme Charles Taylor dapat menjadi strategi untuk melampaui narasi sinophobia di Indonesia. Narasi sinophobia di Indonesia telah lama hadir bahkan sejak era kolonial Belanda. Meskipun konstitusi Indonesia menekankan pentingnya penghargaan pada keberagaman, narasi sinophobia masih tumbuh subur di akar rumput. Untuk dapat melampaui narasi sinophobia maka penelitian ini menawarkan pendekatan pendidikan multikulturalisme yang dibahas oleh Charles Taylor. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan model penelitian filsafat mengenai masalah aktual. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis historis dan refleksi kritis untuk membedah persoalan sinophobia di Indonesia secara mendalam. Dengan menggunakan metode analisis historis dan refleksi kritis, penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa narasi sinophobia adalah peninggalan dari kebijakan segregasi rasial yang terus melestarikan kecurigaan antar etnis dan merusak persatuan bangsa. Untuk menanggulangi dampak dari sinophobia maka dibutuhkan pendidikan multikulturalisme sebagai upaya menciptakan generasi muda yang menghargai keberagaman bangsa Indonesia tanpa terjebak pada stigma tertentu. Dalam pendidikan multikulturalisme terdapat dua aspek penting yaitu kurikulum yang berdasar pada pengakuan dan perwujudan penghargaan yang ideal sehingga kecurigaan antar masyarakat dapat digantikan dengan penghargaan pada keberagaman sebagaimana yang ditawarkan Charles Taylor.

This research aims to explain how Charles Taylor’s multiculturalism can be used as a strategy to overcome sinophobia narrative in Indonesia. Sinophobia in Indonesia has been present since the Dutch East Indies era. After Indonesia gained independence, the Indonesian constitution emphasizes the importance of tolerance and respecting diversity. Nevertheless, sinophobia still thrive in grassroots level. In order to overcome sinophobia, this research offers Charles Taylor’s multiculturalism education approach. This research is a philosophical research on actual problems. This research uses historical analysys and critical reflection as research method to deep dive on sinophobia problem in Indonesia. With historical analysys and critical reflection, this research conclude that sinophobia narrative is a legacy from racial segregation policy that preserved the interracial suspicion. To overcome the impact of sinophobia, multiculturalism education is needed to create a new generation that respect the diversity of Indonesia. In multiculturalism education, there are two important aspects: a curriculum based on recognition and the realization of ideal recognition, thus making the interracial suspicion can be replace with appreciation for diversity as envisioned by Charles Taylor."
