“Indigenous people has their own rights to determine their fate. Based on the rights, they can freely determine their political status and freely pursued the progress of economics, social and culture” (Draft Declaration of UN, Article 3 about Rights of the Indigenous People). This is one of the spirit generators that could be encountered in the book that covered with heterogenous of the indigenous people. This book also gave hope, that all the legal documents and politics related to the indigenous people could increase understanding to the indigenous people itself concerning their rights and obligation both in the national and international level. Not only that, in this book also wanted to stress that “Indonesia acknowledged, honored and protected the indigenous people’s rights, indigenous law and diversity of the national culture on agricultural resources/ natural resources” (Article 4. J. TAP MPR (People's Consultative Assembly) No. IX/2001). You who concern on the issue of the indigenous people as well as policy makers's “should” read this book.
