Abstract

This article traces what is known as adatrechtpolitiek within the contexts of social unrest among the natives inspired by Islam. Adat is a form of identity politics from above and cannot be isolated from the colonial policy to contain the rise of political Islam. As adat posits exclusive and distinct characteristics it is problematic after independence to revive it for social engineering as Indonesia is a common project that is based on equality of its citizens. The main question is therefore whether or not the deployment of adat in the current political development will be an impediment for Indonesia as a common project. Using evidence from several adat communities, this article exposes the impasse of continuing adat politics as only masking real challenges confronted by contemporary Indonesian society. In the current rise of conservative Islam, rehearsing adat as identity politics is dangerous in promoting a divided society. Inclusive citizenship as an embodiment of a common project in which the right of individual and the right of community is accommodated should be the ultimate solution to eradicate inequality and to fulfill social justice.

Abstract

The nexus between migration and agricultural transformation encapsulates the dynamics of rural community livelihoods. Existing studies have not explicitly delineated the landscape of out-migration from rural regions in Indonesia. This study aims to elucidate migration behaviors intertwined with the lives of farming households and the utilization of remittances for agricultural investment activities. Through a comprehensive examination of literature and meta-analyses encompassing various migration cases in Indonesia, the findings reveal that both local and international migration by rural residents illustrate the adaptive strategies employed by households to cope with constrained income within the agricultural sector and limited employment prospects outside it in their villages. The enduring bond of rural communities with the agricultural sector aligns with the discernible pattern of remittance utilization, where a portion is earmarked for agricultural investments, such as land acquisition, including rice fields. The outcomes of this meta-analysis offer a holistic perspective on the relationship between migration and agriculture in Indonesia, serving as a foundation for optimizing the potential of migrants through well-tailored reintegration strategies aimed at mitigating poverty in rural areas.
