| Summary: | At the nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth century, the system of
racial oppression of American characteristic society makes passing assumed as a
significant role relative to the situation of African-American society. Passing
sociologically means as presenting oneself as a member of another socialgroup,
and generally means as a move from one condition into another condition, a
change from one behavior into a new behavior, from one identity into a new
identity, and ample types of transition. Passing is used by marginalized people as
a technique to gain the privilege and reward from another group. It is also used by
oppressed people as a denial of their identity, and then creating a new identity.
This research aims to discuss the phenomenon of the Christians and
Catholic imitation of Islamic expressions in Banarjoyo village. Imitation is one of
the processes of social interaction, and social interaction is a relationship between
two or more individuals, which affects an individual�s behavior, alter or affect any
other individual. The cordial relationship between Muslims and the Christians and
Catholic of Banarjoyo village gives a new nuance on the concept of human
behavioral change and individual passing, which shows that passing may not only
happen on the marginalized and oppressed condition. The significant different
number between Muslims and the Christians of Banarjoyo does not buttress them
to intertwine a good rapport. Muslim majority in Banarjoyo village treat well the
Christians and Catholic minority, and the Christians and Catholic consider their
Muslim neighbors as well as their family. Indeed, this close relationship and the
dominant Islamic culture in Banarjoyo encourage the writer to examine the
concept of passing based on the context of Banarjoyo village.
Finally, by using field research, and collecting data through participant
observation and in-depth semi structured interview techniques, the study reaches
the following conclusion: Christians and Catholic adaptation with Muslims in
Banarjoyo village undergirds on three aspects of social interaction, these are
parallel, associative, and cooperative. The processes of the Christians social
interaction and their participation with Muslims religious activities yield their
identification, and imitation of Islamic expressions. The main factor of the
Christians and Catholic imitation of Islamic expression is because of their role
identity and their feeling dissimilar which further make the Christians and
Catholic of Banarjoyo try to assimilate with the dominant Islamic context. This
assimilation and the Christians and Catholic adjustment of their behaviors as well
as Muslims is what we called as �passing as a form of adaptation.� |
