Abstract

“What is needed, is this: practical implementation, along eastern lines, of eastern thoughts and the eastern approach of adat-law to the modern…needs of… the contemporary [Netherlands] Indies… Adat-law alone, which satisfies eastern needs and speaks to eastern hearts, can be said to parallel the short-sighted recklessness of western law, if only its discovery, effects, insemination can be furthered in the eastern mind—and who can better do this than the Indonesians?”
Cornelis van Vollenhoven, 1928
