"Learning resistance in West
Timor."
(by Karen Janelle Campbell-Nelson 2003, "Learning
resistance in West Timor." Doctoral Dissertation of the
University of Massachusetts Amhers, USA)

Abstract: This case study, set in the south central highlands
of West Timor, Indonesia, presents a range of strategies used
by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and local farmers
to resist the mining of two marble peaks. The narrative, set
within the context of political developments in Indonesia in
recent years, is presented through several genres to enhance an
ethnographic exploration of learning in a context of resistance.
Some of the issues explored in the telling of the tale include
gender and resistance, and the juxtaposition of NGO and
farmer strategies of resistance as shaped by their different
relationships to social and political institutions of the nation-
state.

The study, however, is not limited only to a discussion of
strategies, the “what and how” of resistance-resistance as
curriculum-but also looks at resistance as a learning regime,
the heuristic occasion for the articulation of identity in which
those on the underside of power assert human identity over
an identity as victims. The analysis of resistance as learning
regime draws on a local hermeneutical framework that situates
recognition as a response to the epistemological violation
inherent in the mining, rehearsal as response to cultural
violation, and reciprocity as a response to economic violation.
This privileging of recognition, rehearsal, and reciprocity is
the perspective from which I argue that subsistence
agriculture is a way of life that integrates rather than separates
cultural, ecological, economic, and epistemological aspects of
identity. As such, it is a viable alternative to projects of
unsustainable economic development, such as mining marble,
that tear apart ecological systems and the ways of life
embedded in those systems in order to control them.
