  • The city of Makassar once named Ujung Pandang, in South Sulawesi, underwent tremendous transformation in the 20th century. This transformation significantly changed the image of the city from a cosmopolitan town to a provincial and Vthnic" city. This article shows that the changes of the cityS image did not happen by itself There were changing structural conditions, namely demographic and political conditions, which allowed the changes to happen. Since early 20th century the population of the city has grown eocponentially, First, in-migrants from the surrounding regions in the eastern part of Indonesia flocked into the city until early 1950s. Second, due to the rebellion and unrest in the countryside of South Sulawesi since 1950 in-migrants, mostly refugees, from Bugis-speaking areas in etrn larger number swanned Makassar Parallel with the demographical changes, the political scene in the city (and the province) was increasingly dominated by politicians and bureaucrats of South-Sulawesi origins. The Perrnesta rebellion in late-1950s triggered the departure of mostly non-South Suldwesi politicians awayfrom the region leaving the political stagefialy in the hands of local politicians. The 'ethnic-fixation " of the city was made possible by these demographical and political changes. Key Word: Demografi, Etnisasi
