Abstract

Kerapatan Adat Nagari or KAN plays an essential role in settling customary disputes that may arise in a customary community in West Sumatra, although it is not formally recognized by positive law. This research is aimed at analyzing KAN’s dispute settlement mechanism, as well as how to strengthen the role it plays in the globalization era. This research employs juridical-normative method by examining the facts of KAN’s practices. This research concludes that several different measures may be taken to strengthen the role of KAN as a customary judiciary institution in this globalization era, such as recording the judicial process and decision on every case, archiving the case files, dissemination of the importance of dispute resolution mechanisms through KAN to the public, reforming regional regulations concerning KAN, as well as legal training for customary leaders and figures at KAN by the regional government
