Marriage is a demographic matter which needs involvement of state, it deals with registration of marriage contract in order to get legitimation of law. Registration is an evidence of residence’s obedient
toward state law (law No.23/2006 about demographic
administration, law no.12/200 about citizenship). However, in Samin’s community, marriage does not involved a state but based on the ancestors’ teaching
and Samin’s principle of life. This study based on a grounded, ethnographic and phenomenological research,
this can be categorized as a social-cultural research.
Object of this study is phenomena of social and cultural
of Samin’s community in Kudus, specifically on marriage
based on adat. This study aims to know a practice of Samin’s marriage in Kudus, steps of marriage including nyumuk, ngendek, nyuwito, penyeksen, and tingkep.
Such steps do not involve state’s roles even in
marriage contract.
