| Popis: | Efforts to address past human rights violations in Indonesia have experienced both benefits and drawbacks, creating a dilemma for administrations including the governments headed by Abdurrahman Wahid, Megawati, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, and Joko Widodo. Attempts to utilize the court mechanism in resolving the East Timor and Tanjung Priok human rights violation cases were unsuccessful. Furthermore, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) produced little progress in reconciling. This article proposes alternative solutions to address the challenge of resolving past human rights violations in Indonesia. The main issue addressed is what kind of settlement mechanism would be practical. By employing normative legal research, the study concludes that the legal complexity and political sensitivity of each case require distinct resolution approaches. Notably, the author recommends that reconciliation mechanism should be implemented for some cases, while the court should be utilized for others. |
