Abstract
The paper attempted to discuss how Javanese working women negotiate themselves in the nexus of tradition and modernity. Taking the case of women porters in a traditional market in south central Java, the research aimed at investigating the way in which modernity influences the type of co-modification brewing in the city and the impact it eventually gives to these women porters. Using ethnographic method and drawing from the combined cultural and political economic approach, the research found that there is a lapse between what is currently regarded as agency and victim, attached to the idea of women's deliberation, including Javanese women. The research concluded that only by looking at the dynamic relationship between the traditional cultural aspect and the modern political economic, one can get a clear picture of the contending relations between modernization on the one hand and tradition on the other hand and how this contention has influenced the livelihood of traditional market in Javanese society and of Javanese women working in the market. Keywords: tradition, modernity, Javanese women, market
