Abstract

The constitution can be interpreted with various perspectives with each individual which is motivated by various factors. Nevertheless, in general, the constitution can be interpreted as a set of principles and rules that govern various principles, norms, and institutions which are all fundamental. A good constitution can be seen from the abstract formulation of the material/subject matter. This happened so that the constitution could be interpreted by various parties. Interpretation of the constitution is not new, but, in practice that has occurred in Indonesia to date, various kinds of legal products made by both the House of Representatives (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat) and the Government (Presiden) which derived from the Indonesian Constitution and with a cancellation in the Constitutional Court due to violations – auction of the constitutional rights of Indonesian citizens. This happens because there are “unscrupulous” persons who try various formulations on a legal product in Indonesia for their interest or also the order of these elements by interpreting the constitution as if the crime was legitimized by the constitution itself.
