This article traces the relationship between the state and the idea of the original, sometimes referred to as the autochthonous, sometimes as the indigenous, in Indonesian history and analyses how these relationships are reflected in legislation on land issues, the major concern of recent indigenous movements. In a second step, the article deals with current political strategies of the indigenous movement (AMAN), concluding that the movement is shifting its efforts from the “centre” (national legislation), to the provinces and the margins, a process we term the “local turn” in the indigenous people’s movement in Indonesia. By drawing on the example of Enrekang, South Sulawesi, the contribution shows how peraturan dearah (local regulations) provide a basis for recognition within the margins of the Indonesian nation state. ## Keywords - Indigenous - Indonesian - Politics - State (computer science) - Legislation - Dialectic - Movement (music) - Indigenous rights - Political economy - Political science - Political movement - Sociology - Law - Aesthetics - Epistemology - Philosophy - Ecology - Computer science - Linguistics - Biology - Algorithm --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
