BAB II
THE BEGINNING OF LAW AND THE ADAT RECHT
After studied chapter one, we knew what is the law.
And now, we will learning more about the spesific law, its the adat laws or the adat recht.
Dan For beginning, Lets we talk about the simple thing which us called, the family.
As we know, the law began with the family.
The father was the head of the family. Ayah adalah pemimpin keluarga.
As we know, the family, or become the group of family, they will choose someone who
selected to be their larger group leader.
The chief of the tribe made rules of laws to govern the dealings of one clan with another.
Kepala suku membuat aturan undang-undang untuk mengatur satu marga dengan marga yang
lain.
But the head of the clan still made the laws for the family group. Tetapi kepala suku tetap
membuat peraturan untuk kelompok keluarga.
If a tribal law was broken, the chief will give the punishment for those who broke the rules in
their family group.
Tribal laws were not written.
But they were handed down by word of mounth for one generation to another.
Some of them are actually still in force today.
For example, a man who was a member of one clan could not marry a woman of the same
clan.
He had to choose his bride for another clan, but with the same tribe.
It was ducth who was introduced europians laws to the country.
Then known as the netherland east indiest.
As early, as 1824, there was a concept of separate law made by the ducth goverment.
The population was then devided in to three groups for laws were concerned, namely
eouropians, natives, and foreign oriental.
During the ducth colonial rule, the laws for natives were primarly the adat laws.
Many historians stated that the traits of custom of the people were the basic of adat law.
Trough in traditional culture, adat is an embodiment of the traditional values and moral as
well as an expression of universal values, today adat laws still regulates such sespects of life
like marriage, birth, death inheritanceand, and divorce.
When speaking the law of indonesia, one must go back to period when the indonesia
archipelago was under ducth colonial rule.

As has been previously mentioned there were separate laws in the country under the colonial
goverment in 1826. Different groups of people were subject to different law.
Another factor which is of great significance in study the origin of law in indonesia is the
exsistence of the different ethnic groups in the country.
the various ethnic groups have different cultural background, values and custom with regard
to many aspect of life.
For marriage, minangkabau follow the matrilineal system, while the batak adopt the
patrilineal system.
in the batak clan system, members of the clan should assist one another on marriage
ceremonies and certain type of hierarchy in the marriage organization, such as who should be
the speaker in decided by custom.
The bilateral system is common to most of the regions of indonesia.
So, the origin of law in indonesia can be learned by our knowledge about the colonial ducth
rules in indonesia.
Its the beginning. And indonesia also have the adat laws wich very various of ethnic.
