The evolution of international human rights instruments and national legislation has strengthened the recognition of indigenous communal ownership institutions, including the Permanent Inalienability Principle. Countries like Australia (Native Title) and Canada (Aboriginal Title) have demonstrated robust commitments to upholding communal property regimes. This comparative analysis employs a normative research approach to examine the parameters of existence and relevance of regulations in maintaining the Permanent Inalienability Principle in Indonesia. The findings indicate a strong legal commitment in select countries to safeguard indigenous ownership rights through accommodation, formulation, and enforcement of regulations.
