“…This is in line with Kuntoro research, which states that residents of the lower economic class who mostly work in the agricultural sector tend to have a small income because the agricultural sector has low productivity [21]. The industrial and service sectors are often the goal of shifting the work of agricultural sector workers to improve economic conditions [22,23,24]. Source: Primary data processed (2019)…”

This study aimed to analyze the economic role of cassava in farm households in Central Lampung Regency in the span of 1998 to 2018. Data collection were using surveys and in-depth interviews and analyzed using tabulation method. The results showed that there had been a decline in the economic role of cassava in farm households from 86% to 43.39%. There had been an increase in the share of on-farm income outside cassava (sugar cane, poultry farming, and cattle, etc) and the share of off-farm income (farm laborers) and non-farm income (employees, drivers, and traders) in line with the growth of the sugar processing industry since the past 10 years. In 1998, the economic role of cassava on household income was 86% while it was 43.39% in 2018. Non-cassava income was 39.13%, off-farm income as farmer income was 8.52%, and non-farm income was 8.96%. The shift of the primary sector to the secondary and tertiary sectors occurred because in Terusan Nunyai Sub-district, sugar cane factories and pineapple factories had been established, so farmers preferred to become farm laborers, employees, drivers, and traders to increase their incomes.

“…The conflict that occurred in the Caniago tribe with the National Land Agency (BPN) in Pariaman, indicating the presence of the state actually triggered the birth of conflict (Fitlayeni, 2015). Disputes occur between indigenous people in the process of matrilineal inheritance of Minangkabau (Aermadepa, 2016;Prasetya, Firdaus, & Hasanah, 2018), even disputes that occur between indigenous peoples and the government are due to the presence of development project investments (Mutolib, Yonariza, Mahdi, & Ismono, 2015). Likewise, customary land disputes that occurred in Aceh society after the tsunami, which led to conflicts between indigenous groups (Amalia, Mukhlis, & Yusrizal, 2018).…”

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The state recognizes and respects indigenous and tribal people and their traditional rights insofar as they are alive and in accordance with the development of society and the principles of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, as contained in Article 18 B paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution. However, the fulfillment of cultural identity and the rights of indigenous people have not been maximized. This study aims to find the conceptual model of the Customary Justice system in an effort to protect the existence of the rights of indigenous people to build the strength of civil society in West Sumatra. This research uses research and development methods. Data retrieval is done by survey, observation, interview, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) methods. This study found that; 1) Minangkabau people have their own local wisdom in resolving customary disputes, even for a broader range of life issues, long before Indonesia was found, 2) Nagari Customary Justice system is a translation of Limbago Adat which is the life philosophy of Minangkabau people, 3) Nagari Customary Judicial institutional structure is a representation of the existence of the tribe in the Nagari, so that its cultural legitimacy becomes strong. And, 4) the Nagari Customary Justice system is an effort to build the sovereignty of civil society, namely an autonomous, independent, egalitarian, and democratic society. It is hoped that the results of this study will be a guideline in establishing the Nagari Customary Justice institution in West Sumatra.

“…In the future, the superiority of male power in the life of the Minangkabau ethnic community still has an impact on the lives of women. Several cases in Minangkabau society in the modern era show the transfer of inheritance rights from kemenakan to mamak (Mutolib et al, 2016). Another case that worsens the image of Minangkabau men is violence in marriage which causes the loss of women's contributions in the domestic and public sphere (Lestarini et al, 2021).…”

This article offers an intensive analysis and discussion regarding the practice of hegemonic masculinity in the matrilineal marriage tradition belonging to the Minangkabau ethnic group in the western part of Indonesia's Sumatera archipelago. The rules of Minangkabau matrilineal customs that still place men as policymakers for women are a contributing factor to the practice of hegemonic masculinity. The data source used to examine the problem is an Indonesian novel set in Minangkabau society and culture entitled Sitti Nurbaya by Marah Rusli. Text data obtained from the novel Sitti Nurbaya were analyzed using content analysis techniques. After analyzing the stages of data reduction, data display, and data verification, it was found that two matrilocal marriage traditions in Minangkabau society show the practice of hegemonic masculinity, namely a) kawin bajapuik tradition; and b) the tradition of polygamy. The hegemonic masculinity in both traditions is characterized by the superiority of male power in regulating the conditions of marriage and the emphasis on female obedience as subordinate objects. This study is considered to have greatly contributed to the initial study of masculine literature in the Minangkabau matrilineal society, the study of the revitalization of its gender mainstreaming, as well as efforts to find out the description of the social reality of Minangkabau society in the early 20th century.
