Abstract

The universality of human rights has developed virally and became more and more dominant in this disruption era. On the one hand, global political propaganda links the issue of human rights with all areas of the lives of world citizens. On the other hand, the fulfillment of the constitutional rights of citizens is faced with the state’s obligation to take into account human rights per se. This research is aimed to study the problems that persisted when applying the concept of human rights in the Indonesian political reform of the law. Using the Critical Legal Studies, it is found that after nearly eight decades of independence, Indonesia’s ius constituendum requires adaptation of the concept of human rights to support national development goals that are in line with the people’s mandate. At least this adaptation provides a space for relaxation and prevents the formation of global opponents in the form of new world order. Public justice should be in synergy with the goals of national development and the goals of global development.
