Beskrivning
Spanning nearly a century, this exploration delves into the intricate relationship between language and law within Indonesia, highlighting the pivotal role of jurists throughout significant political transitions. It captures the evolution of legal discourse from 1915 to 2000, a period marked by colonial influences, national independence, and the quest for democracy. Through the lens of various languages employed by jurists, the work offers rich insights into how these shifts not only shaped legal practices but also reflected broader sociopolitical dynamics in Indonesian society.
The narrative underscores the diverse linguistic landscape, illustrating how language served not merely as a tool for legal expression but also as a powerful medium of cultural identity and resistance. Readers will discover the complexities actors face in balancing traditional legal frameworks with emerging norms, revealing a tapestry of voices that contributed to the forging of modern Indonesian law. This comprehensive analysis is essential for understanding the multifaceted nature of legal evolution in an ever-changing world.
