Abstract
This paper discusses the mapping of political affiliation in Indonesia based on Clifford Geertz concept of trichotomy; santri, abangan, priyayi. Generally, the mass political orientation in Indonesia is not much different than what was outlined by Clifford Geertz in his master piece entitled “The Religion of Java”. The concept of 'trichotomy' consisting of the Santri, Abangan, and Priyayi, which over the past five decades has been the fundamentally critiqued by various parties. Numerous weak points and fallacy of conceptual framework then become the entrance to re-conceptualize the Indonesian people political orientation. With the critical approaches, the Geertz's approaches will again be utilized to map the direction of community in the contemporary Indonesian political orientation.
