KAJIAN YURIDIS PERLINDUNGAN HAK ASASI MANUSIA TERHADAP RASISME MENURUT HUKUM INTERNASIONAL DAN IMPLEMENTASI DI INDONESIA

Abstract

ABSTRACT Racism in Indonesia despite the existence of an international legal framework that regulates the protection of Human Rights. Individual rights are violated and social injustice is caused by racism, especially for minority groups such as Papua. The formulation of the problem is as follows: 1) How can international law defend human rights against racism? and 2) How well does Indonesia implement anti-racism human rights protections? By examining the relevant legal norms of law, rules, and legal doctrines, normative legal research using a descriptive approach is the methodology used. The findings of this study show that although Indonesia has ratified many international legal documents, including Law No. 40 of 2008 on the Elimination of Racial and Ethnic Discrimination and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD), there are still many obstacles to its effective implementation. There are still many obstacles to its effective implementation. Protecting communities from discriminatory activities is hampered by a lack of public understanding of human rights and a lack of effective law enforcement. Therefore, in order to provide effective human rights protection against racism in Indonesia, extensive changes to the law and an increase in law enforcement capacity are needed.
