The voice of the law in transition
Indonesian jurists and their languages, 1915-2000
Massier, Ab
In the literature on Indonesian legal history, the role of language has been
paid scant attention. Even the replacement of Dutch by Indonesian as the
official language of the law, surely a major event for the work of Indonesian
jurists, has not been closely examined. Yet, since the early 1970s, legal usage
and terminology have been the topic of a steady stream of highly critical
publications by linguists and, remarkably, by jurists as well. Their criticism
is focused on the heterogeneity of law language and terminology, and the
deviation of legal usage from the official standard language. Government
measures (language courses, law dictionaries) have not allayed this criticism.
This study exposes two fundamental defects in the government measures and in
the criticism itself. Firstly, they are grounded in an instrumental approach to
language, an approach that sees language as a mere tool of the jurist, and as
secondary in importance to the conceptual world that is considered law’s core
business. Secondly, they greatly underestimate the impact of the declining
knowledge of Dutch upon the development of Indonesian law language. Massier
argues that the law must be viewed as inextricably bound up with the language
in which it is formulated. Consequently, legal training and practice are
examined in this study in terms of language behaviour and conventions, of
learning, writing and speaking the languages of the law. The voice of the law
in transition provides a language history of Indonesian law and its
practitioners.
