Abstract :
The symptom of monetization has changed the rural organizations and social institutions, including the "tradition ofnyumbang" (gift giving). Gift giving tradition has an important meaning for the rural community to negotiate socialinteractions. This study aimed to examine how the reciprocity portrait in gift giving tradition was in a Java rural atrural monetization. This research use of qualitative methods and took the location of Sub- Banyumas Javanese culture(represented by the rurals in the district of Banyumas and Purbalingga district). The result showed that gift givingtradition still had its strength as institutions of reciprocity. It was characterized by the persistence of "megari" whichcontroled and ruled the fl ow of giving (foodstuffs). By giving this foodstuffs, rural women built the solidarity of sharing.Therefore, although the monetization of giving had long lasted in many areas, the rural women of Banyumas were stilldiffi cult to adapt to the money giving. However, the gift giving of foodstuffs transformed from subsistence products orlocal products (agricultural) to become market economy product in line with the transformation of women's work fromfarm to non-farm sector.
