About this ebook:
Satu hal yang penting dalam konsep pengelolaan dan kepemilikan di ranah Minangkabau adalah kekayaan yang dipunyai oleh suku, kaum dan nagari tidaklah dapat digadai, bahkan dijual (dijual ndak tamakan bali, digadai ndak tamakan sando). Jika suatu nagari menginginkan suatu kekayaan nagari untuk digadai, setidaknya ada 4 syarat atau kondisi yang harus dipenuhi. Pertama: Mayit Tabujua di Rumah Gadang (maksudnya jika ada salah seorang anak kemenakan yang meninggal dunia, akan tetapi tidak ada sanak saudaranya yang akan mengurusinya, maka wajib bagi anggota kaumnya, suku dan nagari untuk memakamkan si mayat. Jika tidak ada biayanya, maka kekayaan nagari berupa tanah, air, dan lainnya dapat digadai); kedua, Anak Gadih Indak Balaki (maksudnya: jika ada anak kemenakan di suatu nagari (terutama) perempuan (gadis) belum mempunyai pasangan atau suami, maka anggota kaum, suku dan nagari wajib untuk mencarikan suami bagi anak kemenakannya ini). Jika tidak mempunyai uang, maka mamak dapat mengadai kekayaan nagari, suku dan kaum tersebut); ketiga, Rumah Gadang Ketirisan (maksudnya: jika ada rumah adat yang rusak dan tidak ada biayanya, maka kekayaan nagari dapat digadai); dan keempat, Mambangkik Batang Tarandam (maksudnya: jika dalam suatu suku tidak ada seorang penganti datuak, maka harta kekayaan nagari dapat digadai untuk kepentingan mengangkatan gelar datuak ini. Jadi, kekayaan nagari hanya dapat dialihkan (di konversi) dalam bentuk gadai apabila memenuhi keempat atau salah satu dari keempat syarat yang disebutkan di atas. Dengan catatan, kekayaan nagari itu tidak untuk dijual.Pengelolaan sumberdaya alam di Sumatera Barat khususnya nagari-nagari di Minangkabau, dalam praktiknya masih menggunakan aturan hukum adat Minangkabau, yang sampai sekarang masih berlaku dan diyakini kebenarannya, seperti kata pepatah “tak lakang dek paneh, tak lapuak dek hujan, dianjak tak layuah, dibubuik tak mati” (tak lekang oleh panas, tak lapuk oleh hujan, dipindah tak layu, dicabut tak mati).Di samping harus mengacu pada hukum adat, pengelolaan sumberdaya alam juga harus berlandaskan pada nilai-nilai: adil/keadilan partisipasi, jujur/kejujuran, dan demokrasi. Dengan nilai-nilai tersebut, yang merupakan cerminan dari kearifan lokal masyarakat Minangkabau, diharapkan dapat menjadi pedoman dalam mengelola sumderdaya alam secara arif dan bertanggungjawab.Daftar Isi:BAB I.
