Abstract
Angling has been taking place and is deeply rooted in historically German culture. Its functionality evolves from subsistence, economic livelihoods, customs and traditions, to recreational activities offering enjoyment of nature. Summer field research was conducted around Baden-Württemberg and Hessen with ten anglers of diverse backgrounds living in Germany. The qualitative ethnographic research and perspective-taking approach were applied through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and literature studies to explore the current angling culture in freshwater ecosystem landscapes comprising angling experiences and practices, and anglers’ perceptions. The research findings demonstrate angling goes beyond fondness, it is a matter of responsibility in terms of animal welfare and ecosystem balance as is evident from anglers’ ecological consciousness adhering to the fishing rules and procedures, besides ethical considerations of human-nonhuman relations. Understanding fish through othering does not necessarily signify human supremacy over other species, but rather an act of reconciling, considering biological differences are ineluctable features of biological systems.
Bahasa Abstract
Memancing telah berlangsung dan mengakar dalam sejarah kebudayaan masyarakat Jerman. Berevolusi dalam fungsionalitasnya dari kegiatan berbasis subsistensi, mata pencaharian ekonomi, tradisi, hingga aktivitas rekreasi yang menawarkan kenikmatan alam. Penelitian lapangan pada musim panas dilakukan di wilayah Baden-Württemberg dan Hessen dengan sepuluh pemancing dari berbagai latar belakang yang tinggal menetap di Jerman. Penelitian kualitatif etnografi dengan pendekatan pengambilan perspektif melalui observasi partisipan, wawancara mendalam, dan studi pustaka diaplikasikan guna mengeksplorasi budaya memancing di landskap ekosistem air tawar dewasa ini dalam lingkup pengalaman dan praktik memancing, serta persepsi pemancing. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa memancing merefleksikan kegiatan waktu luang yang lebih dari suatu kegemaran, menyangkut tanggung jawab yang berdasar pada prinsip-prinsip kesejahteraan hewan dan keseimbangan ekosistem sebagaimana terlihat dari kesadaran ekologis pemancing dalam mengindahkan aturan dan prosedur memancing, di samping pertimbangan etis dalam hubungan manusia dan non-manusia. Memahami ikan melalui keberbedaan tidak serta merta mengindikasikan supremasi manusia atas spesies lain, melainkan dimengerti sebagai bentuk harmonisasi dengan alam yang memandang perbedaan biologis sebagai suatu keniscayaan dalam kelangsungan sistem biologis.
