Patrilineal kinship system and the customary inheritance law of Batak migrant families in the modern Indonesian family
The Batak ethnic group is one of the Indonesian ethnic groups that adheres to a patrilineal kinship system. Many Batak families, however, have migrated beyond their place of origin and have long been settled in their new areas. This study aims to determine the degree of implementation of Batak customary inheritance law and discern the extent to which customary law is maintained or has shifted regarding gender equality. This study adopted an empir…
Indonesian school rules and discrimination in education against pregnant students
The study explored the Indonesian school rules for pregnant students. It examined whether, and if so, how pregnancy affected their right to education and future prospects, using a human rights perspective. The data were collected through literature studies. The result demonstrated that most Indonesian schools used a point system to calculate the student’s infringement (including pregnancy) before sentencing her/him. Most of the school rules in th…
The Implementation of Low-Inheritance Customary Law Within Minangkabau Migrant Families in Indonesia
The Minangkabau tribe is an Indonesian ethnic group from West Sumatra, Indonesia, and one whose complex social structure is traditionally based on a matrilineal kinship system.

Over time, Minangkabau beliefs and practices have been challenged and reshap…

This article discusses the implementation of the right of child custody in the Indonesian Family Law system, which under the Indonesian Marriage Act 1974 does not explicitly regulate the form of custody and ensure the best interests of the child. The research aimed to examine the reasoning by judges (in both the Religious Court and State Courts) and their decisions in child custody disputes, the form of child custody that was granted, and to what…
Shame and Indonesian women victims of domestic violence in making the decision to divorce
Studies on divorce and shame in Indonesia have found that shame has been used by the Indonesian government to restrict divorce; however, this built on existing negative cultural constructions of the female divorcee. Although being a widow is also stigmatised by the public, this is to a lesser extent than for a divorced woman. Research has shown that the concept of shame has been one of the barriers that women face when considering disclosing thei…
The development and pilot testing of an adolescent bullying intervention in Indonesia – the Roots Indonesia program
Bullying has been described as one of the most tractable risk factors for poor mental health and educational outcomes, yet there is a lack of evidence-based interventions for use in low and middle-income settings. We aimed to develop and assess the feasibility of an adolescent-led school intervention for reducing bullying among adolescents in Indonesian secondary schools. The intervention was developed in iterative stages: identifying promising i…
