according to the general culture ajib Rosidi

IN melee thought about national culture-a theme that in 1930-an invite in the polemic between the intellectuals of the Indonesia-Ajip presumably ditilik interesting. Views-views in this terekspresikan either indirectly in the papers and sastranya directly in the essay-esainya.

Multitude of different thinkers and cultural activists who tend to turn to the West to formulate a concept sesusun about the culture or national culture of Indonesia, such as that used by buzzed Sutan Alisjahbana destiny while trying to decide liaison with the "culture prae-Indonesia" or "local-local culture," Ajip seems more likely to emphasize that the building "keindonesiaan" must be established in such a way without ignoring the importance of heritage "countrified." In this case Ajip seem quite close to the cultural establishment Muh. Rustandi Kartakusuma who fears that orientation to the West only a very vibrant akan cause symptoms "Indosiasi Ciliwung", a kind of responsibility mestijoisme: West not to be fully up to, are to become truly is tercerabut Indonesia's cultural roots.

Ajip itself did not reject or refuse the influence of Western culture that is believed to blow from outside the cultural environment of Indonesia. Simply gambarannya, Pustaka Jaya, which nota bene Ajiplah one of the most important managers up to now, since the business started in 1971 to translate the very diligent works of literature the world's best, whether that comes from the West (United Kingdom, United States, France, Netherlands, etc.. ) and East (Japan, Egypt, Arabia, etc..) in the Indonesian language, so of course literature can enrich the association with the Indonesian literary world. He is, especially when managing DKJ, one that actively encourage colleagues to fellow author Indonesia mengindonesiakan works of world literature. At least, as we can say based on the book Nusa Jawa: Silang Budaya works of Denys Lombard, Ajip including part of a generation of writers of a certain level to participate ditumbuhkan by Balai Pustaka cultural policies, institutions founded by the Dutch colonial government, and until now keep the memories of the era of Balai Pustaka.

Meanwhile, in conjunction with the traditions or aspects of local culture in the environment of Indonesia, Ajip menyikapinya are not naive in the stroke-like caress junk. Just for the sake of example, the decades since 1950s he sastera critics of Sunda, which is no hard and tired kesusasetraan Sunda assert that attempts to build "awareness of a more robust": writing paper sastera not entertain such a painful job, but a kind of weary toil to give testimony on the community. In short, the establishment Ajip in this case it would be able to be depicted-borrow terminology Ignas Kleden in Scientific Attitude and Cultural Critics maintain as-built and participated in a tradition without a "traditional attitudes". Ajip also one of a handful of activist culture Sunda many times suggest undak-basa Sunda usuk (a kind of manners in a gradual or graded-level) does not need to unduly emphasized, because in addition to not tend to also tend to be democratic off the interest the younger generation to take maintain social communication in this adult-an expression of a different attitude with the attitude of the conservative think-undak basa Sunda usuk as part of the identity of Sunda.

Issue that it would be important in this case related to the social reality in preference, encourage and direct precipitation attitude, the culture and views, as expressed by this Ajip. Also it would be important is the extent to which attitudes, culture and views of the consecutive charge-social demands in Indonesia in a certain period.
