Abstract

This article examines the impact of deforestation on the spiritual rights of indigenous peoples in Indonesia through the lens of ecological justice. As one of the world's most biodiverse countries, Indonesia continues to experience deforestation driven by plantation expansion, mining activities, and infrastructure development. These processes have not only degraded forest ecosystems but have also disrupted the spiritual, cultural, and social relationships between indigenous communities and their customary territories. This study addresses two questions: (1) how deforestation affects indigenous peoples within the ecological justice framework, and (2) how state policies protect indigenous spiritual rights in the context of environmental governance. Using a normative legal method, this article analyzes constitutional provisions, environmental legislation, human rights instruments, and legal frameworks concerning indigenous peoples, supported by case studies of the Mutis Indigenous People in East Nusa Tenggara and the Suku Anak Dalam in Jambi. The findings indicate that development policies in Indonesia remain largely oriented toward economic growth and have not adequately integrated the protection of indigenous spiritual rights. Consequently, deforestation continues to threaten sacred sites, customary territories, cultural identity, and traditional livelihoods. This article argues that ecological justice provides an appropriate framework for balancing development, environmental protection, and indigenous rights through the recognition of customary territories, meaningful participation based on Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC), ecosystem protection, and intergenerational sustainability. The study contributes to the development of environmental law scholarship by positioning indigenous spiritual rights as an integral component of environmental governance and sustainable development in Indonesia.

Abstract

The agrarian conflict in Moro-Moro Register 45, Mesuji Regency, Lampung, has significantly impacted the local community, particularly in restricting children's access to education. The enforcement of Law No. 18 of 2013 on the Prevention and Eradication of Forest Destruction and Law No. 30 of 2014 on Government Administration has further complicated the situation by limiting the community's rights to manage and utilize natural resources, making it difficult for residents in forest areas to access adequate educational services. This research examines two key issues: the role of education as a tool of resistance for the Moro-Moro Register 45 community in defending their rights and the impact of agrarian conflict on their struggle for land access. Using a qualitative and socio-legal approach, this research integrates legal analysis with social inquiry, drawing on desk research, direct observations, and in-depth interviews with community members and stakeholders. The findings indicate that the politics of education is a crucial instrument for the Moro-Moro community in advocating for social change, particularly in addressing agrarian disputes and seeking social justice at the governmental level. Furthermore, agrarian conflicts often stem from systemic injustices in the distribution and management of natural resources, with land emerging as a central point of contention between the state, private enterprises, and local communities or small-scale farmers.

Abstract

Lingkungan hidup merupakan kesatuan dari seluruh objek dan kondisi tempat hidup makhluk hidup, termasuk manusia dan perilakunya, yang memengaruhi kelangsungan hidup manusia dan makhluk hidup lainnya. Di antara semua makhluk hidup dan komponennya terdapat hubungan saling ketergantungan satu sama lain, sehingga membentuk suatu keseimbangan dalam kehidupan yang harus senantiasa dijaga. Apabila terjadi gangguan terhadap keseimbangan antara komponen-komponen dalam lingkungan hidup, maka dapat mengakibatkan ketidakseimbangan di dalamnya. Hal ini dapat terjadi akibat peristiwa alam ataupun ulah manusia yang mencemari lingkungan. Jika pencemaran tersebut dilakukan oleh manusia, baik secara sengaja maupun tidak sengaja, maka diperlukan adanya pertanggungjawaban hukum. Permasalahannya, terdapat banyak kesulitan dalam pembuktian kasus-kasus pencemaran lingkungan. Artikel ini akan membahas penerapan Doktrin Res Ipsa Loquitur sebagai upaya untuk mempermudah pembuktian dalam pemeriksaan langsung di lokasi terhadap kasus pencemaran lingkungan, sehingga penegakan hukum menjadi lebih efisien dan tidak terlalu membebani korban pencemaran lingkungan dalam membuktikan kesalahan pelaku pencemaran lingkungan.

Abstract

Bureaucratic cultural transformation is a crucial prerequisite for realizing good governance in Indonesia. The experience of the New Order era demonstrated that the bureaucracy tended to be militaristic, centralistic, feudal, and less responsive to public needs. This culture shaped the mentality of officials, oriented more toward hierarchical obedience than toward professionalism and public service. Political reform and the implementation of regional autonomy provided a strategic momentum for reconstructing the bureaucracy to be more democratic, participatory, and accountable. This study aims to analyze the challenges of transforming bureaucratic culture toward good governance and identify cultural elements that can be developed as resources for change. The method used is normative legal research with a library study approach, utilizing secondary legal materials in the form of laws, academic literature, and previous research findings. The results show that Indonesian bureaucratic culture is characterized by the coexistence of Weberian rational values ​​such as efficiency, legal certainty, and accountability with traditional values ​​rooted in local socio-cultural configurations, particularly paternalistic and patron-client cultures. While some traditional values ​​are determinants and potentially hinder reform, these values ​​can also be transformed into social capital to support mobilization, social oversight, and service ethics. The main challenge lies in changing the work culture of government officials, which is still oriented towards procedures and power, not fully focused on results and the quality of public service. Therefore, administrative reform needs to be directed at strengthening professionalism, accountability, and internalizing a work culture oriented towards results and public satisfaction. Ultimately, bureaucratic cultural transformation must be able to synergize rational-modern values ​​with local wisdom in a proportional manner to build an effective, responsive, and integrity-based bureaucracy.
