One of the common problems in a society that originates from multiculturalism is
the emergence of a dichotomy in the community resulting in differences between
ethnic groups. This distinction is often measured by domination, marginalization,
majority or minority, and even stereotypes attached to each group or ethnicity. Not
infrequently also formed a pattern that labels a local community and migrants. The
complexity of inter-ethnic relations in multicultural societies requires controlling
models for the relations with conflict potential. Actually, the concept of ethnic
identity still leaves debate that is not over, especially among experts in the social
sciences. However, at least we need to get an overview of this construct. One
of the strongest elements in the cultural structure of a society that can support multicultural relationships that are equilibrium and harmony is kinship because
there is a mechanism in maintaining wholeness. This study aims to reveal the
meaning of kinship commodification in local ethnic groups in Lampung and
reveal the implicit meaning of the commodification of kinship. As a qualitative
study, interviews were the main instrument for obtaining a native perspective
(the giver and recipient of a title) and observing the custom ritual of awarding
the title holistically and supported by several relevant documents. Collected data
by rolling out information on some (original) informants to get their perspective
on the culture of lifting titles for migrants who used a kinship perspective.
This study also used participatory observation to get a complete picture of the
commodification of kinship in multicultural relationships. The research location
included the Lampung society dominated by Papadun and Saibatin communities.
The results showed that the positioning of Lampung ethnicity at the minority level
in a multicultural society increased their ability to cultivate a title culture in their
community structure as a tool of resistance by adopting kinship. Cultural actions
with kinship patterns and symbols make other people like relatives or family. Even
the title becomes an instrument of cultural harmony in multicultural relations. The
title of Lampung’s local ethnic kinship becomes the identity at stake because the
title found a compromise of identity that is always modified.
