Abstract

As nowadays foreign cultures enter into community life, strong individual character is needed to create a culture of harmony. Community independence and cultural power are built based on individual commitment to values. This study aims to discover traditional activities that enhance civic culture through local wisdom in Cireundeu, Indonesia. The qualitative approach with ethnographic method employed reveals the consciousness of indigenous people in Cireundeu to engage in traditional culture practices by maintaining inter-personal tolerance and maintaining harmony with modernization. Results show community solidarity can help preserve traditional culture in modern life. However, in fact, foreign cultures are dynamic. Understanding to what extent local culture are able to adapt to foreign influences and build community harmony is important in the Indonesian context where many Indonesian and overseas culture interact on a daily basis.
