Abstract

Institutional design of the state with separation of powers and checks and balance give birth to the intersection of authority. This condition has the potential to create a power dispute between state institutions. Provisions regarding the resolution of disputes over state institutions are inseparable from issues concerning subjectum and objectum litis which have become jurisprudential and the institution is independent and is not subordinate to other institutions, so there are several state institutions that cannot resolve disputes in the Constitutional Court, namely state institutions that regulate them outside the Constitution, whether regulated by law or under the law. The purpose of this study is to describe the provisions of dispute resolution for the authority of state agencies which the authority is regulated in law. This journal research uses a qualitative paradigm with a phenomenological approach in the translation. The results obtained in this study are: 1) Detection of  Welfare which will be realized in maximum when all state agencies effective in operation; 2) Paradigm: Analysis of Dispute Authority of State Institutions. On the basis of a modern legal state, disputes over the authority of state institutions that are formed based on the law, need to be channeled to settle so that they remain based on due process of law and there are no rules in the process of resolving disputes over the authority of state institutions in the law.

Abstract

Indonesia is neither a religious state nor a secular state. Based on the Pancasila state ideology and the 1945 Constitution, Indonesia adheres to a symbiotic model in which the state and religion are different entities but have a mutually influencing relationship. This relationship pattern can be seen from several laws that regulate issues related to religion, especially Islam, which is embraced by the majority of Indonesians. As a political product, the pattern of relations between the state and religion in the law is dynamic. However, in accordance with the principles of a democratic rule of law, the dynamics of democratic politics are controlled by legal instruments, one of which is through the authority to review laws as one of the powers of the Constitutional Court. The Constitutional Court’s decisions in cases of judicial review of laws related to religion reinforce the model of the symbiotic relationship between the state and religion. Such decisions affirmed Pancasila as a model of Indonesian secularity that is needed for the sake of individual rights and freedoms, to balance or reconcile religious diversity, social integration and national development, and the independent development of the functional domains of society.

Abstract

Originally, the concept of CSR was come from business ethic values that impose corporation’s ethical responsibly to their social and natural environment. That development of ethical business was part of social consciousness on the degradation of environment as impact of corporation activities. This reality also raised the deep environmental ethic or deep ecology which challenge anthropocentrism economical development and urged ecocentrism development. In Indonesia, this phenomenon was marked by the enactment of Act 4/1982 on Environmental Management.The constitutional debate on CSR just began when the Indonesian Constitutional Court heard and decided the judicial review case of Act 40/2007 on Limited Liability Company which stipulate CSR mandatory law for corporation that have activity in natural resources areas. In its decision, Constitutional Court refused the petition. This means that the court affirmed that CSR mandatory law is not contrary to the Constitution. However, the legal argumentation of the court was not shifted from economical and environmental perspectives. The constitutional basis of the decision is Article 33 (4) concerning national economic principles and Article 33 (3) concerning state power on land, water, and natural resources. The Constitutional Court did not use the human rights concept as the source of CSR mandatory law.In constitutional law perspective, we can justify the CSR mandatory law from human rights guarantee on the constitution. CSR is one of the obligations to respect, to protect, to fulfill, and to promote human rights. Those obligations are not only bind over the government, but also corporation and all citizens. In that perspective, CSR should be mandatory law not only for the corporation which manage or correlate with natural resource, but for all corporations that operate in the middle of the society.

Kedua, bagaimana kebijakan pengelolaan sumber daya pertambangan perspektif masyarakat hukum adat yang berkeadilan ekologis? Metode penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian hukum normatif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa, pertama, kebijakan pengelolaan sumber daya pertambangan berdasarkan undang-undang pertambangan mineral dan batubara saat ini hendaknya disesuaikan dengan putusan-putusan mahkamah konstitusi dan Undang-Undang Nomor 23 tahun 2014 tentang Pemerintahan Daerah dalam konteks perizinan. Pemerintah daerah provinsi sekarang ini mengambil alih kewenangan pemerintah kabupaten/kota untuk mengeluarkan izin tambang berdasarkan Undang-Undang Nomor 23 tahun 2014 yang sebenarnya masih bersifat semi sentralistik dan secara kewilayahannya dalam konteks tambang masih berada di kabupaten, sementara pemerintah provinsi sebagai wakil dari pemerintah pusat; kedua, Kebijakan pengelolaan sumber daya pertambangan perspektif masyarakat hukum adat yang berkeadilan ekologis terletak pada konsep kearifan masyarakat hukum adat dalam pengelolaan sumber daya alam, dalam hal ini tambang yang menjadi hak penguasaan negara. Terdapat hubungan timbal balik antara manusia dengan alam, dimana masyarakat hukum adat selalu menempatkan keseimbangan alam dalam pengelolaan lingkungan (participerend cosmisch), sehingga keadilan ekologis dapat dirasakan semua unsur alam, selain manusia.The problems in this paper are: first, what are the mining resource management policies based on mineral and coal mining laws? and second, how is the mining resource management perspective of the ecological justice community indigenous people?

There is a reciprocal relationship between humans and nature, where customary law communities always place natural balance in environmental management (participerend cosmisch), so that ecological justice can be felt by all elements of nature, other than humans.

Abstract

Theoretically and practically (judicial review), include two types, namely formal verification (formale toetsingrecht) and material verification (materielle toetsingrecht). The formal verification is an authority of assessing whether or not a legislative product is produced in accordance with the prevailing procedures. While a material verification is an authority to examine and measure whether or not a legal regulation contradicts with a higher level regulation, as well as whether or not an authority has the right to establish a certain regulation. Article 51 paragraph (3) of Law Number 24 Year 2003 regarding Constitutional Court state about it. In this context, material verification include extensive material, ie the whole matter of law, in part, or a small part of a word or even punctuation that can affect the norm. Thus, the provisions not only affect the meaning, but even the existence of a norm should be examined by the Constitutional Court. In addition, the loss of norms can violate constitutional the rights of citizens’.

MK dalam menjalankan kewenangan pengujian undang-undang telah menafsirkan berbagai ketentuan UUD 1945 mengenai hak asasi manusia, yang beberapa penafsiran tersebut menguatkan makna sebagaimana secara gramatikal terbaca dalam UUD 1945 namun terdapat pula putusan yang memaknai secara berbeda dibandingkan makna gramatikal UUD 1945. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui makna ketentuan dalam UUD 1945 yang mengatur mengenai hak asasi manusia, serta untuk mengetahui apakah melalui putusan MK terjadi pergeseran bahkan perubahan makna hak asasi manusia dimaksud. Metode penelitian ini berbentuk penelitian yuridis normatif. Pendekatan yang digunakan meliputi pendekatan teoretis (theoretical approach), dan pendekatan konseptual (conceptual approach). Berdasarkan analisis bahan hukum yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini disimpulkan bahwa putusan-putusan MK selain menegaskan makna hak asasi manusia sebagaimana terdapat dalam UUD 1945, MK melalui putusannya juga telah menggeser (memperluas) sebagian makna hak asasi manusia yang tercantum di dalam UUD 1945.
