The title reflects Indonesia’s geological context, situated on the Ring of Fire and atop three tectonic plates. This particular context affects not only Indonesia’s natural landscape and how it shapes the people who live on the surface but also their mentality and spirituality, as we exist in a precarious condition facing natural disasters. It also reveals how socio-political power operates across various social layers, both historically and contemporarily.
