Community Participation in Resolving Boundary Disputes Between Villages
Abstract
This study aims to explore and understand community participation in resolving boundary disputes between villages in Indonesia, especially in the East Nusa Tenggara Province area. This research is categorized as normative juridical law, with a focus on examining community participation in village boundary dispute resolution and the application of relevant legal provisions. The legal materials used in this study include laws and regulations, legal documents, and legal reports, such as the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages, Law Number 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government, and Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs Number 45 of 2016 concerning Guidelines for the Determination and Affirmation of Village Boundaries. Secondary sources of legal material include books, journal articles, and newspapers, which provide answers to the problems at hand. Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that community participation in the settlement of village boundary disputes can be carried out through a persuasive approach through consultation, negotiation, mediation, and conciliation, and involves assessments from experts. The findings obtained by the researcher indicate that in several villages that use this approach, the resulting policies are more acceptable to the community, minimizing conflicts, and providing a sense of justice.
Keywords: participation, community, conflict, dispute resolution, village boundaries.
