Indonesian law is a remarkably complex mixture of Dutch legislation, uniquely indigenous institutions and Islamic commandments. It is hoped that this book will clarify some of the dimensions of this complexity, and that it will help to fill the need for introductory materials in English. The book is organized loosely around a general theme of fundamental importance in Indonesia: the division of the country into “population groups” based on racial origin, and the legal pluralism which has resulted from this division. The national motto of Indonesia - Bhinneka Tunggal Ika, “Unity in Diversity” is in part a response to this division. In the first chapter we discuss the origins of legal pluralism. In Chapters 2-5 we focus on several substantive areas - marriage and divorce, agrarian law, mortgages, contract law - where pluralism has been especially important. In chapter 6 we describe the law of conflicts which developed in the 20th century as a result of legal pluralism. Finally, in chapter 7, we consider some of the efforts in the last several years to achieve unification.

"The Dutch colonial power in Indonesia in the nineteenth century needed to clarify its understanding of the legal values and conventions of the peoples whom it claimed to rule. Dutch colonial lawyers tended to rationalize this legal culture, lumping together all kinds of indigenous legal customs from different areas as manifestations of adatrecht, or, customary law. The status of this legal system vis-a-vis Dutch colonial law was a source of continual depute and disagreement. The champions of adatrecht known as the Leiden School, with C. van Vollenhoven in the forefront, scored a victory around 1927 when adatrecht gained official recognition, though on the other hand it became the subject of mounting criticism. After World War II, the independent state of Indonesia paid lip service to adatrecht principles, but in practice treated it as irrelevant, or even an embarrassment."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
