Overview

Pedersen (anthropology and museum studies, Central Washington U.) uses a 1998 ritual of ancestral deification in eastern Bali as a lens to view the Balinese state, power, subject formation, and local approaches to the changing nation-state. She places the ritual, performed by a minor noble house in the highlands, in the context of the national political upheaval following President Suharto's fall from power.
