Buku ini menyoroti pula masalah jender dan kekuatan hukum di Aceh. Kaya analisis dan fakta yang menarik dan penting. This volume contains eight chapters written by Acehnese scholars. All chapters are based on six months research fieldwork funded by Aceh Research Training Institute (ARTI); an initiative of a consortium of Australian universities in providing support in the post disaster recovery process to rebuild research capacity of a new generation of Acehnese living in a significantly changed society and to provide them with critical skills needed to produce excellent scholarly works. Professor Emeritus Harold Crouch of Australian National University comments on the book saying it is a clear sign of the return of scholarly local atmosphere in Aceh after the tsunami. The book covers various local issues of religious practices, shari`a law and institutions, Islamic movements, and gender equality. Some case studies from different parts of Aceh are presented and linked to existing relevant literatures and major theoretical frameworks in social sciences, including anthropology, history, human rights, gender and Islamic studies. As commended by John Bowen, Professor of Anthropology from Washington University in St Louis, the volume is rich of analysis and full with important and interesting facts. The book contributes to current understandings of changes which took place, or remain ongoing, in Aceh. As its subtitle informs, the volume is intended to be ‘insider accounts’ on religious, social legal and political changes that take place in Aceh in the past few years. Seen in light of Habermas’s work (Theory of Communicative Action, 1984), this book has been a field of interaction of Acehese scholars with many researchers from outside Aceh who have made this region for decades as a site of exciting scholarly works on diverse fields and topics.

It focuses on what has changed, what has been challenged and what is [still] continued, locating the discussion within a context of their social dialectics with the local majority of Muslims due to its time, spatiality and social processes. Admittedly, the history of diasporic Chinese and their social interrelation with the ethnic majority of Acehnese does not occur in static, but in a dynamic way, instead. It was continuously constructed, reconstructed and changed in a specific durability and spatiality within a negotiated space of socio-spatial dialectics between the minority and the local majority groups. Through several observations, and in-depth interviews with people from diasporic Chinese community in Banda Aceh, and with few Acehnese informants, this study discovers that some socio-political situations at macro-national level of the related policies (on minorities), as ...

The debate centered on whether the new state would officially apply Islamic law. This article looks at the past events that demonstrated the recurring contest between various ideological camps at different levels and forms. Employing both historical and legal pluralist perspectives, this article ponders several themes at different time and places to show typologies of political ideologies throughout Indonesian modern history.

It is noteworthy to say that the incorporation process has been long and, at times, uneasy. The engagement of women in Indonesia’s Islamic judicial system started six decades ago with a small number, and then increased over time to include several important roles and positions in the religious court system. Based on empirical data collected from three religious courts of first instance and on judgment analysis, this chapter assesses the factors that have an impact on the way male and female judges display gender sensitivity in their dealings with female litigants. An important conclusion is that female judges do not always make a difference.

Despite few Indonesian women were already sitting at Islamic courtrooms and hearing cases on family law issues as early as in 1960s, it was only in 1989 that Indonesia fully accommodated female judges at the religious courts. From this onwards, female judges were recruited more than ever and began accessing a number of rights and positions like their male counterparts. This paper discusses female judge and women litigants at Islamic courts of Indonesia. This paper not only discusses the way in which women were recruited to be judges at the Indonesian Islamic courts, but also explores some factors leading Indonesian women to engage in the judicial practice. In addition, this paper looks at the way in which female judges exercise their authority to protect rights of disadvantaged women litigants. This paper argues that de...

This ethnographic account of legal pluralism in the post-conflict and disaster situation in Aceh addresses changes in both the national legal system and the regional legal structure in the province. Focusing on the encounter between diverse patterns of legal reasoning advocated by multiple actors and by different institutions (local, national and international; official and unofficial; judicial, political and social cultural) it considers the vast array of issues arising in the wake of the December 2004 earthquake and tsunami in Aceh.
It investigates disputes about rights to land and other forms of property, power relations, the conflict of rules, gender relationships, the right to make decisions, and prevailing norms. These disputes are presented on multiple levels and in various forums, either through negotiation or adjudication, regardless of whether they are settled or not. The cases involve various actors from villages, the courts, the provincial government and the legislature, the national Supreme Court and the central government of Indonesia.

What left the biggest impression on this reviewer were the ways in which Tibetans narratives revealed the importance of both gender and history, that is, how the present is understood through gendered subjectivity and the ethnic past. Makley's linguistic analysis of proverbs and discourses demonstrates this in a sharp-eyed way-such as the use of Chinese words for particular terms in otherwise Tibetan sentences. Despite an at-times dense and overanalytical jargon, particularly in the first chapter, the author succeeds in depicting a complex and vivid picture of rapid social change in a Tibetan society. Yet, the author is careful not to generalize the particular situation of Labrang as a parameter for other Tibetan societies. This is most prudent, given the diverse local lay and monastic histories and present social relations and situations among Tibetan nomads, farmers, and urbanites in China.
