A purpose of this research is to elucidate the structure and its function of the rural communality in the formative period of the market economy. To do this, we created the three-layer structure model of communality from a preceding case study of 19th Century rural village in Japan (ex-Kami-Shiojiri, Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture). Using this three-layer structure model, we carried some out on-site interviews, official documented data survey, exhaustive survey (250 samples), and gathered rich quantitative and qualitative information of Desa Sekumpl, Bali, Indonesia. The result of the analysis are as follows. First, we clarify some typical properties of rural communality in Bali. Second, we found those rapid reorganization under the recent market economy expansion (particularly commercial crop production and tourism). Third, we also found the external expansion of the rural communal system from old villages. Finally, we clarified both similarity and differences between Japan and Bali.
