TIONGHOA INDONESIA: DARI DIKOTOMI KE MONO-IDENTITAS?
Abstract: The most commonly
used by various elements in defining Tionghoa identity is by dividing it into
main dichotomy, i.e.
totok and peranakan.
Nevertheless, totok and
peranakan definition
themselves have limits
that keep continuously
debated. Totok is
generally understood from the
side of its
birth and Tionghoa
Puritanism, while peranakan
is comprehended as identity
that mixes each
other with locality.
As the time
goes by, totok and peranakan dichotomy are not
relevant anymore. Recent politic development has led to Tionghoa identity
option measured singly by the level of more liquid flexibility.
