Protection of the Rights of Sanitation in Indonesia (A Case Study in Malang Regency)

摘要

Waste management by the government is to ensure the fulfillment of basic needs. When viewed from legal perspective, Malang Regency is one of the few districts which already have waste management regulations. However, the implementations of such Local Regulations have been facing structural and sociological constraints. Meanwhile the government through National Medium Term Development Plan 2015-2019 has put the arrangement of waste regulation as one of its targets. This paper will discuss those structural and sociological constraints and analyze the arrangement of waste regulations in Malang Regency. The analysis applied socio-legal approach to data and the results showed that social capital, competition over resources, and weak bureaucratic capacity affected the structural and sociological constraints.
