1999年,在印度尼西亚政治权力下放之后,特尔纳特和蒂多雷(北摩鹿加)苏丹国重新建立,同时穆斯林和基督徒发生暴力冲突,苏丹人在冲突中恢复了对以前在哈马黑拉的海外属地的"传统"主权要求。本文考察了从世纪中期起,主权在相关社会中被概念化和制定的表征和仪式交换。重点放在这些模式的主权和朝贡关系的货币层面,它分析了干预,先后实施的特尔纳特苏丹国,荷兰殖民地政府和荷兰改革新教教会的传教士。有人认为,这些干预最终导致了二元结构和宇宙授权的主权模式转变为基于宗教的普遍主权要求,从而为宗教间暴力铺平了道路。
The re-establishment of the Sultanates of Ternate and Tidore (North Moluccas) in the wake of the political decentralization in Indonesia was accompanied in 1999 by violent confrontations of Muslims and Christians, in which the Sultans reactivated their “traditional” sovereign claims on their former overseas dependencies in Halmahera. This article examines the representations and ritual exchanges, in terms of which from the mid-nineteenth century onwards sovereignty used to be conceptualized and enacted in the societies concerned. Focusing on the monetary dimensions of these models of sovereignty and tributary relations, it analyzes the interventions that were implemented successively by the Sultanate of Ternate, the Dutch Colonial Government and missionaries of the Dutch Reformed Protestant Church. It is argued that these interventions eventually resulted in transformations of the diarchically structured and cosmologically authorized models of sovereignty into religiously grounded claims at universal sovereignty, thus paving the way for inter-religious violence.
