Abstract

This research delves into the issue of law enforcement against land mafias in Indonesia, which is a deeply troubling issue within the country's land sector. The aim of this research is to analyze the driving factors, social and economic impacts, and to formulate recommendations and solutions to enhance law enforcement against land mafias. Within the context of this research, the driving factors facilitating land mafia practices include corruption in bureaucracy, ambiguity in land laws, unequal legal access, complex bureaucracy, ineffective land reform policies, and involvement of government officials. Real case studies reveal how land mafias have exploited these weaknesses to illegally acquire land. The social impacts of land mafias encompass land conflicts, forced evictions, legal uncertainties, and lack of community access to resources. On the economic front, land mafias can cause significant economic losses, hinder investments, disrupt infrastructure development, and diminish trust from foreign investors. The proposed recommendations and solutions include land law reforms, strengthening law enforcement, protecting witnesses and whistleblowers, developing integrated land information systems, periodic land audits, cross-sector collaboration, increasing public awareness, the role of media and NGOs in exposing land mafia cases, independent monitoring, strict penalties, measured land reform policies, and transparency in property purchases. This research identifies the complexity of law enforcement issues against land mafias in Indonesia and emphasizes the importance of joint efforts from the government, law enforcement agencies, civil society, and the private sector to create a fairer legal environment and reduce illegal practices in land ownership. In conclusion, this research contributes to a better understanding of challenges and solutions in addressing land mafias in Indonesia.
