ABSTRACT

This paper for the anniversary issue of the Journal of Legal Pluralism and Unofficial Law attempts to explain how legal pluralism as a sensitizing concept plays a role as an auxiliary in looking at phenomena where there is a co-existence between various legal systems. The legal pluralism approach carries methodological consequences that require a researcher to use microscopic lenses to observe the relations between law and relevant actors in cross-border spaces. It is also important to examine the interrelations between the concept of personhood with law in a context of legal pluralism. Without a legal pluralism approach linked with a relational approach that looks at the connections between law and relevant actors, research would not be able to generate a significant narrative about how law works. In this paper, the conceptual and methodological reflections on legal pluralism are linked to a research on the diversity of legal references that regulate the issue of Indonesian female migrant workers in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), with all its implications for actual access to justice for women.

摘要

这篇为《法律多元主义与非官方法学杂志》周年纪念刊撰写的论文试图解释法律多元主义作为一个敏感概念如何在观察各种法律制度之间并存的现象时起到辅助作用。法律多元主义方法带来的方法论后果需要研究人员使用微观镜头来观察跨境空间中法律与相关行为者之间的关系。在法律多元化的背景下，研究人格概念与法律之间的相互关系也很重要。如果没有将法律多元主义方法与关注法律与相关行为者之间联系的关系方法联系起来，研究将无法就法律如何运作产生重要的叙述。在本文中，
