Abstract

From a justice standpoint, the objective of this study is to explain the philosophical justifications utilized by law enforcement to combat child sexual exploitation. This investigation qualifies as normative legal research. The research findings suggest that the practical consideration or rationale behind the implementation of measures to prevent child sexual exploitation and violence is philosophical. This demonstrates how the Indonesian nation’s legal ideals, consciousness, and spiritual climate, as exemplified in Pancasila and the Preamble to the 1945 Constitution, were incorporated into the formulation of regulations. The philosophical foundation functions as the fundamental support or basis of an organization firmly rooted in intellectual principles; it comprises a conviction regarding the optimal trajectory of behavior and the ultimate aim of persons. It is incorporated into one’s existence as a guiding principle or standard. It is embodied within the conceptual framework of a group or an individual who personifies the fundamental idea of an ideal existence. Integrating the principles delineated in the five precepts of Pancasila is imperative for the administration of criminal law in Indonesia, encompassing national criminal law as well. Regarding equitable law enforcement and Pancasila, the author aligns with Sudjito’s claim that the legal state of Indonesia is composed of three elements: state objectives, federal legislation, and Pancasila. Hence, in the domains of philosophical hermeneutics and legal science, the concept of law enforcement grounded in “God Almighty” and “justice” must further reference the tenets enshrined in Pancasila.
