The Dynamics of Legal Pluralism in Indonesia

93 21683 Bowen这个项目涉及一位文化人类学家，研究印度尼西亚伊斯兰法律机构、民事法院和习惯法程序之间不断变化的关系。印度尼西亚是世界上最大的穆斯林社会。该项目将利用深入访谈和参与者观察以及审查法庭案例的人种学技术，研究从地方习惯法程序向更具普遍性的伊斯兰法典的转变。普遍主义的规则与当地的价值观围绕着继承这一重要主题发生了冲突，这个简短的项目将聚焦于1978年人类学家首次研究的一个社区，看看地方当局是如何处理这个问题的。通过了解当地社区对中央国家当局的宗教法律禁令的反应，该项目将提供有关伊斯兰社会适应不断变化的当地情况的能力的重要信息。增加对伊斯兰地方多样性的理解和对变化的反应，将使我们的社会更好地与穆斯林打交道。“

93 21683 Bowen This project involves a cultural anthropologist studying the changing relationship between Islamic legal institutions, civil courts, and customary law procedures in Indonesia. Indonesia is the largest Muslim society in the world. Using ethnographic techniques of intensive interviews and participant observation as well as reviewing court cases, the project will study the shift away from local customary law procedures towards more universalist Islamic legal code. The universalist rules clash with local values around the important theme of inheritance, and this brief project will focus on a community first studied by the anthropologist in 1978 to see how local authorities deal with the problem. By understanding how the local community reacts to the religious-legal proscriptions of the central national authorities, this project will provide important information about the abilities of Islamic society to adapt to changing local circumstances. Increased understanding of Islamic local diversity and reactions to change will better enable our society to deal with Muslims. "
