Abstract

Traditional bale banjar (community center) for the Balinese community is an important place for performing obligatory ritual activities. However, the tourism industry has caused some adjustments to its spatial usage. Economic and institutional functions are now placed in bale banjar adat (traditional community center) to accommodate growing demand for non-ritual activities in public life. This paper describes the implication of activity change: from traditional to modern, and the commodification process of culture as an impact of tourist activities. The discussion will illustrate the formation of a public place within a recognized communal space.
