Indonesia provides particularly interesting examples of gender diversity. Same-sex relations, transvestism and cross-gender behaviour have long been noted amongst a wide range of Indonesian peoples. This book explores the nature of gender diversity in Indonesia, and with the world's largest Muslim population, it examines Islam in this context. Based on extensive ethnographic research, it discusses in particular calalai - female-born individuals who identify as neither woman nor man; calabai - male-born individuals who also identify as neither man nor woman; and bissu - an order of shamans who embody female and male elements. The book examines the lives and roles of these variously gendered subjectivities in everyday life, including in low-status and high-status ritual such as wedding ceremonies, fashion parades, cultural festivals, Islamic recitations and shamanistic rituals. The book analyses the place of such subjectivities in relation to theories of gender, gender diversity and sexuality.
"Gender Diversity in Indonesia is a landmark work that combines careful ethnographic research with cutting-edge gender theory ... a profound contribution to a range of disciplines, including anthropology, feminist theory, queer theory, and Southeast Asian Studies."
Professor Tom Boellstorff, University of California, Irvine, USA
"...a wonderfully rich account that reveals the everyday lives of variously gendered individuals, as well as their subjectivities and integration into and tensions with the larger society, Islam and the nation-state. The material is original and without rival."
Associate Professor Evelyn Blackwood, Purdue University, USA
"...an important contribution to sexuality/gender studies cross-culturally as well as more particularly to Southeast Asian studies, filling a gap in the limited literature on gender in Indonesia."
Associate Professor Peter Jackson, Australian National University
"...an original, critical contribution to both gender studies and Indonesian studies."
Professor Saskia Wieringa, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands
"Indonesia's linguistic, ethnic and religious diversity, of which Indonesians are always proud, is here given another dimension: gender. Gender Diversity in Indonesia is a joy to read."
