The Leiden Legacy: Concepts Of Law In Indonesia
The Indonesian civil law system is often taken for granted, when it is actually a product of “institutional
transplantation” and inherited from the Dutch Colonization. Long before the arrival of colonial
powers in Indonesia several centuries ago, many local communities had operated within their self-
regulating systems with multiple political entities. When colonization came to power, however, there was
a massive shift from judge-made law to a centralized statute-based legal system imposed by the colonial
order.
After the independence in 1945, the new republic had to deal with a pluralist legal system consisted of
a combination of colonial inheritance, various kinds of adat laws, 2 and Islamic legal influence.
