Abstract

Indigenous peoples and local communities are among the best environmental guards. Their livelihoods and culture depend on forests, clean water and other natural resources, so they have high motivation to manage their land sustainably. The problems raised by this research: how is the effectiveness of customary law in protecting the environment and the position of customary law of sea law against positive law in Indonesia, especially related to environmental issues? The conclusion is that the role of indigenous peoples with their customary law such as sasi customary in preserving the environment is very effective because with the existence of customary law, the people do not dare to take natural resources before the open time of sasi. It is the fact that from these two laws that are customary law and positive law have an interrelated position with one another. So it can be said that customary law can be used to protect the existing natural resources.
