| Summary: | Many observers wonder how the Balinese have managed to survive for the last 500 years in a region where local history is too filled with invasions, colonisation, ethnic conflict, political crises and economic misfortune. Because of a miracle? No way: the Balinese have managed to create a society and a way of life which have enabled everyone here to cope with such a permanent chaos. The Balinese live by Offerings, appeasing the demons which dwell in the neighbouring Sea and thanking the divinities that have made volcanoes the place where they live. Between Sea and Volcano, between Water and Fire, Bali tries to keep its balance. |
