Regarding local law, which wasoriginally a means of managing and utilizing natural resources in the region, at this time,especially in the era of economic globalization, it is not only dealing with state law (nationallaw) but also economic and legal issues in the international context.

The writing of this article isextracted from several results of legal research that has been carried out using non-doctrinallegal research methods through a socio-legal studies approach. Based on the results ofresearch in several locations in Bengkulu Province, applicable local laws relating to the useand management of natural resources have experienced a shift, although in some areas locallegal values are still believed and become guidelines for local communities.
