Abstract

UNESCO declared world cultural landscape heritage to an ancient rice terraces system with a diverse of sustainability values and practices in the Bali Island, called the subak system, to be a World Heritage in 2012. This study examines the views of educated Balinese communities toward the subak ecological system, in response to the lack references regarding public perceptions of the Subak World Heritage in Bali. Participants (n = 912) completed a questionnaire based on a modification of the new ecological paradigm scale. Their views of subak were neutral with respect to human nor environmental orientation. An exploratory factor analysis failed to differentiate between ecocentrism and egocentrism dimensions, indicating a conflict in the perception of the educated Balinese people between preservation and utilization of the subak system. Since this study has its own limitations, which are carefully examined, further research is suggested.
