STUDI TENTANG ’ELIT INDONESIA’: PROBLEMATIKA & PENDEKATAN
ABSTRACT: Even though the term
’elite’ is often used by the Indonesian researchers, but it is rather difficult
to find a particular study that focuses on the Indonesian elite(s). We could
find some historical writings concerning Indonesian elite of the 20th century,
but not contemporary studies on the Indonesian elite(s), particularly those
using anthropological approaches. This paper discusses the methodological
problems which are faced by the Indonesian researchers to conduct an
anthropological study of elite.
Keywords: elite, the category
of elite, anthropological approach on elite, Indonesian elite(s), study of
Indonesian elite
