Pasca-Reformasi 1998, persoalan marjinalisasi dan pemberdayaan masyarakat adat, hak atas tanah dan hutan, politik identitas, serta pengaruh politik kolonial yang menyertainya menjadi perhatian berbagai kalangan. Meski berusaha berimbang, banyak tilikan terjebak dalam bias, sehingga memunculkan wajah ambigu masyarakat adat atau gerakan masyarakat adat. Sekaligus menutupi tantangan sesungguhnya: kemiskinan dan ketidakadilan. Kajian tentang masyarakat adat maupun gerakan masyarakat adat umumnya menggunakan pendekatan esensialisme pada satu sisi dan pendekatan dekonstruksi sosial pada sisi lain. Pemosisian dua kutub semacam ini dirasa belum cukup. Karena itulah, kajian lebih mendalam tentang mayarakat adat maupun gerakan masyarakat adat menemukan urgensinya. Buku ini menawarkan lensa yang lebih strategis. Pemahaman gerakan masyarakat adat macam apa yang dapat diperoleh dari lensa baru ini? Buku ini menjawabnya,
Perayaan 100 tahun pendidikan hukum di Indonesia merupakan momen yang tepat untuk merefleksikan posisi fakultas hukum di tengah masyarakat. Sejauh mana fakultas hukum berhasil memainkan perannya sebagai pengembang ilmu hukum, dan penghasil para sarjana hukum yang mengisi berbagai posisi dan peran baik di lembaga penegakan hukum, lembaga pemerintahan, korporasi swasta, organisasi internasional, lembaga swadaya masyarakat, berbagai forum dan gerakan masyarakat sipil. Berbagai hal terkait pendidikan hukum tidak dapat dilepaskan dari konteks sejarah, struktur sosial, politik, ekonomi dan kultural di Indonesia, dan permasalahannya tidak dapat dilepaskan dari permasalahan yang dihadapi pendidikan ...
Istilah adat dalam bahasa Indonesia berarti kebiasaan atau tradisi dan berkonotasi aturan yang kalem dan harmonis. Namun, dalam tahun-tahun awal masa reformasi – bahkan terkadang sampai beberapa tahun terakhir – adat seringkali diasosiasikan dengan gerakan, protes dan kerusuhan. Sejak Soeharto lengser tahun 1998, masyarakat berbagai daerah dan etnis di Indonesia telah dengan terang-terangan dan vokal, bahkan kadang secara kasar menuntut penerapan adat setempat di daerah mereka masing-masing. Buku ini menelaah kebangkitan adat dalam perpolitikan Indonesia, mengidentifikasi asal-muasal, faktor historis yang memberinya peluang, dan sebab-musabab yang membuatnya berkembang pesat baru baru in...

Argumen utama buku ini adalah bahwa kewargaan dibentuk dan dipraktikkan melalui serangkaian gerakan melawan ketidakadilan. Gerakan-gerakan ini berupa serangkaian perjuangan—oleh rakyat di level akar rumput dan kelas menengah beserta organisasi perwakilan dan para aktivisnya—untuk pengakuan kultural, keadilan ekonomi dan sosial, serta representasi politik. Perjuangan ini secara umum berujung pada keterlibatan mereka dengan negara melalui proses-proses diskursif dan non-diskursif. Kendati negara menjadi simpul yang utama, perjuangan-perjuangan ini seringkali masih tercerai-berai, baik antar-sektor maupun posisi-posisi subjek. Membangun rantai solidaritas antar-fragmen perjuangan tersebut s...

This book presents an account of an intellectual breakthrough in the study of rural society and agriculture. Its ten chapters, selected for their originality and synthesis from the colloquia of the Program in Agrarian Studies at Yale University, encompass various disciplines, diverse historical periods, and several regions of the world. The contributors' fresh analyses will broaden the perspectives of readers with interests as wide-ranging as rural sociology, environmentalism, political science, history, anthropology, economics, and art history. The ten studies recast and expand what is known about rural society and agrarian issues, examining such topics as poverty, subsistence, cultivation, ecology, justice, art, custom, law, ritual life, cooperation, and state action. Each contribution provides a point of departure for new study, encouraging deeper thinking across disciplinary boundaries and frontiers.
