Abstract

Customary law is a collective value system that originates from local wisdom and is passed down from generation to generation within indigenous communities. This study aims to examine the role of Ammatoa customary law in the Kajang tribe community in South Sulawesi as an ecological mechanism based on spirituality and social structure. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature review method, this study examines relevant scientific literature on the structure of customary law, the values of Pasang ri Kajang, the principle of kamase-mase, and the Patuntung belief system. The results of the study show that Kajang customary law not only regulates social relations but also protects the environment through customary prohibitions, the division of sacred zones, a social sanction system based on siri’, and collective governance led by Ammatoa. This system reflects living law and operates effectively without state intervention. Customary law has proven to be more adaptive and adhered to because it is based on moral and spiritual legitimacy, not formal legal coercion. Additionally, these findings indicate that synergy between customary law and state law is feasible to strengthen national conservation policies that are ecologically just. Therefore, customary law must be substantively recognized as a partner in sustainable environmental governance in Indonesia.

Abstract

The tradition of migration in Minangkabau society is not only a form of economic mobility, but also an expression of a complex and structured cultural value system. Migration opens up an interesting space for cultural transformation to be studied anthropologically, especially in the context of how Minang identity, social structure, and traditional values are managed outside their homeland. This study aims to analyze the cultural transformation of the Minangkabau in diaspora regions through a cultural anthropological approach using a literature review method. Data sources were obtained from scientific journals, reference books, and academic publications related to the Minangkabau diaspora. The findings indicate that despite shifts in cultural forms due to urbanization and globalization, Minang communities in diaspora continue to uphold core values such as matrilineal kinship, solidarity, and the interplay between traditional customs and Islam. Adaptation occurs through community organizations, cultural economic practices, and the use of digital media as spaces for transmitting values. Younger generations of the diaspora play a crucial role in maintaining identity continuity through contextual cultural innovations. These findings emphasize that Minangkabau culture is not static but capable of surviving and transforming with dignity in new social spaces. This study is relevant for strengthening strategies to preserve local culture in the context of migration and modernity.
