Isi artikel

Why different 'times' (or different 'categories of objectified time') coexist among the Amis in Iwan? I argue that the Amis' images of others provide an answer to it. For the Amis in that village, four significant others have relations with them. This article explores how the images of others reflect in the time dimension. In sum, attempting to combine their own cultural traditions with certain cultural elements of 'superior' others, and strive for a better future is the important cultural mechanism of the Amis.
