The Revival of Tradition in Indonesian Politics

The Indonesian term adat means ‘custom’ or ‘tradition’, and carries connotations of sedate order and harmony. Yet in recent years it has suddenly become associated with activism, protest and violence. Since the resignation of President Suharto in 1998, diverse indigenous communities and ethnic groups across Indonesia have publicly, vocally, and sometimes violently, demanded the right to implement elements of adat in their home territories. This book investigates the revival of adat in Indonesian politics, identifying its origins, the historical factors that have conditioned it and the reasons for its recent blossoming. The book considers whether the adat revival is a constructive contribution to Indonesia’s new political pluralism or a divisive, dangerous and reactionary force, and examines the implications for the development of democracy, human rights, civility and political stability. It is argued that the current interest in adat is not simply a national offshoot of international discourses on indigenous rights, but also reflects a specifically Indonesian ideological tradition in which land, community and custom provide the normative reference points for political struggles. Whilst campaigns in the name of adat may succeed in redressing injustices with regard to land tenure and helping to preserve local order in troubled times, attempts to create enduring forms of political order based on adat are fraught with dangers. These dangers include the exacerbation of ethnic conflict, the legitimation of social inequality, the denial of individual rights and the diversion of attention away from issues of citizenship, democracy and the rule of law at national level. Overall, this book is a full appraisal of the growing significance of adat in Indonesian politics, and is an important resource for anyone seeking to understand the contemporary Indonesian political landscape.

Preface and acknowledgements

This book originated in a convergence, and a complementarity, between the research interests of its editors. David Henley, through his historical work on nationalism in Indonesia, was fascinated by the influence of Dutch colonial ideas about Indonesian tradition on New Order political ideology. Jamie Davidson’s research on ethnic conflicts in Kalimantan had confronted him with the power of a different, but evidently related, ‘politics of tradition’ at regional level in the post-New Order period. The catalyst bringing the project together, as for so many intellectual endeavours in relation to Indonesia, was Tony Reid, director of the Asia Research Institute (ARI) of the National University of Singapore. Comments by Jamie during an ARI seminar in 2003 reminded Reid of a poolside conversation with David at a Jakarta hotel some years earlier, in which similar issues had been discussed. Reid put the two in touch, asking Jamie to organize an ARI workshop on the politics of adat – tradition – and the promises and pitfalls of today’s adat revival movements. Together with anthropologist Greg Acciaioli, who was studying the indigenous peoples’ movement in Indonesia, Jamie and David penned a thematic outline for the event. Among those invited to participate were adat activists from Indonesia, and interested scholars of diverse disciplines from Singapore, Australia, the Netherlands, and Canada.
The workshop, entitled ‘Adat revivalism in Indonesia’s democratic transition’, took place on 26 and 27 March 2004 on the island of Batam, Singapore’s Indonesian ‘backyard’. It would not have been possible without the funding generously provided by ARI under Tony Reid’s stewardship, or without the professionalism of ARI administrative staff members Valerie Yeo Ee Lin, Noorhayati Binti Hamsan, Lynn Tan, and Shalini Chauhan. The present volume grew out of the Batam workshop. Except for the editors’ introduction (Chapter 1) and the contribution by Cees Fasseur (Chapter 2), all chapters are based – albeit in some cases at considerable remove – on papers presented in Batam. Also influential in most cases, especially the introduction, were the lively and sometimes heated debates conducted at the workshop, debates sharpened by a group of first-rate discussants including Oetema Dewi, Carole Faucher, Jamil Gunawan,

xiv Preface and acknowledgements

Paul Hutchcroft, Joel Kahn, Priyambudi Sulistiyanto, Bivitri Susanti, and Tony Reid himself. Papers by Hedar Laudjeng and Erma Ranik, two committed activists at the forefront of adat movements in their respective homelands of Central Sulawesi and West Kalimantan, could not be included in the present volume, but both participants made important contributions to the event.
We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all those involved in the
Batam workshop. In particular we want to thank the contributing authors for meeting our sometimes onerous editorial demands, and for bearing with us when the preparation of the volume for publication took longer than anticipated. The essays went through multiple revisions before reaching the forms published here. Our thanks also go to the University of Leiden’s Van Vollenhoven Institute for Law, Governance and Development, which proved an ideal intellectual environment for Jamie in which to co-write the introductory chapter, and which gave us the opportunity to make a public presentation of that introduction. Jan Michiel Otto, Adriaan Bedner, Henk Schulte Nordholt, Gerry Van Klinken, and Peter Burns all gave graciously of their time to offer valuable comments and suggestions on the same piece. Thanks too to Peter Sowden, Barry Clarke and Leong Li Ming of Routledge for their efforts and support in seeing the whole volume through to its publication.
Most importantly we thank our families, who have given us their love and patience as we juggled our professional and personal lives to bring this project to fruition. Portia Reyes watched Jamie turn himself into an ‘adat scholar’ over piles of photocopies and cups of tea in a Singaporean café. As the project unfolded, she lent a loving, helping and firm hand during its ups and downs. Jamie remains eternally grateful, all the while perplexed at his good fortune in her stumbling into his life. For Agustina Kusbandini Henley the period in which this book took shape was a momentous one, including the arrival of beloved twins Daniel and Ann, wrenching moves from Leiden to Singapore and back, and David’s not always successful attempts at balancing his own increasingly diverse priorities. When he succeeded at all it was, as always, thanks to her.
With this book we have endeavoured to show how its principal themes
– marginalization and empowerment of indigenous peoples, (un)civil society, democratization, land rights, identity politics, and legacies of colonialism – relate to global developments beyond Indonesia’s borders. All these topics are of radical importance in today’s world and will strike emotive chords with many readers – as indeed they did with our contributors, who strive for balance but whose biases and commitments are often evident none the less. Whatever their personal reactions to the various arguments presented, we hope that readers, including those involved in adat movements themselves, will come away from the book with fresh insights into the politics of tradition in Indonesia as a historical as well as a contemporary phenomenon.

    confirm that the condition was really the impact of development, the paper will look at the condition of Orang Baduy who have ‐‐to some degree‐‐ rejected such development. The rejection of development by the Orang Baduy has resulted in a relative socio‐cultural integrity in the community. Finally, the presentation will close with a discussion of some scenarios of development and its impact upon traditional communities. Keywords: development, exclusion, Orang Rimba dan Orang Baduy HOW DEVELOPMENT AND CONSERVATION INTERVENTIONS MAY BOTH EXACERBATE AND MITIGATE MARGINALITY: SHIFTING POWER RELATIONS ON THE LINDU PLAIN, CENTRAL SULAWESI Greg Acciaioli The University of Western Australia Among the development interventions of the Indonesian government briefly following independence was a program of ‘seeding’ numerous lakes across Indonesia with the spawn of Mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus. i.e. mujair or nila). This paper traces the chain of consequences across decades of this fish’s introduction in Lake Lindu in highland Central Sulawesi beginning in 1951. Initially, this intervention did not provide the enhanced livelihood opportunities to the Indigenous Lindu people intended by the government. Instead, Bugis migrants, IDPs from sectarian conflict in South and Central Sulawesi, used gill nets to intensify harvesting of the species and established a fish marketing system to the Palu Valley and beyond by recruiting kin and clients through chain migration. However, when the Bugis depleted the stock of tilapia in the early 1990s, the Indigenous Lindu people struck back, having been re‐empowered by their successful resistance to a hydro‐electric scheme (PLTA) at Lindu and by their emergent partnership with the Lore Lindu National Park authority and the park’s co‐manager, The Nature Conservancy (TNC), recognised through community conservation agreements.

However, nowadays the concept of Islamic law has become so self-evident and politicised, for Muslims as well as for outsiders, that some Muslims consider the analysis of its coming into being as a provocation.

    From Custom to Pancasila and Back to Adat Naples

    1 Secularization of religion in Indonesia: From Custom to Pancasila and back to adat Stephen C. Headley (CNRS) [Version 3 Nov., 2008] Introduction: Why would anyone want to promote or accept a move to normalization of religion? Why are village rituals considered superstition while Islam is not? What is dangerous about such cultic diversity? These are the basic questions which we are asking in this paper. After independence in 1949, the standardization of religion in the Republic of Indonesia was animated by a preoccupation with “unity in diversity”. All citizens were to be monotheists, for monotheism reflected more perfectly the unity of the new republic than did the great variety of cosmologies deployed in the animistic cults. Initially the legal term secularization in European countries (i.e., England and France circa 1600-1800) meant confiscations of church property. Only later in sociology of religion did the word secularization come to designate lesser attendance to church services. It also involved a deep shift in the epistemological framework. It redefined what it meant to be a person (Milbank, 1990). Anthropology in societies where religion and the state are separate is very different than an anthropology where the rulers and the religion agree about man’s destiny. This means that in each distinct cultural secularization will take a different form depending on the anthropology conveyed by its historically dominant religion expression. For example, the French republic has no cosmology referring to heaven and earth; its genealogical amnesia concerning the Christian origins of the Merovingian and Carolingian kingdoms is deliberate for, the universality of the values of the republic were to liberate its citizens from public obedience to Catholicism.
