Abstract

The village, or what is called by another name, existed before Indonesian independence. Regulations regarding villages are regulated in several laws and regulations. The purpose of this research is to analyze and find a comparison of the authority of village administration before and after the implementation of Law no. 6 of 2014. Research methods, types of normative legal research, with philosophical approaches, statutory approaches, conceptual approaches, and historical approaches, using primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials. The obtained legal materials are processed and analyzed prescriptive normatively. In conclusion, the comparison of village government authority before the implementation of Law No. 6 of 2014 places the village authority in two roles, namely the authority to manage its own household, and the role as the lowest government under the sub-district head, and the uniformity of villages throughout the territory of the Republic of Indonesia, before the implementation of the Law No.6 of 2014, the authority of the village government remains with the district/city government, so that the authority of the village government is always in a truncated and amputated position.

Highlights

  • The connection between decentralisation and corruption has recently been discussed among researchers, policy makers, and the public

Summary

Introduction

The connection between decentralisation and corruption has recently been discussed among researchers, policy makers, and the public. 3. In a budget proposal for the procurement of an integrated radio communication system by the Ministry of Forestry from 2007 – 2008, some amount of money was given to the members of commission IV of the House of Representatives and to officials of the Forest Department. 5. The Regent of Siak issued business permits to several companies for the utilisation of wood products from a forest plantation from 2001 – 2003 in the Regency of Siak. A business permit was issued to 9 companies in the Province of Riau for the utilisation of wood products from a forest plantation. Regional governments argue that the wood produced by the forests can provide more regional revenue, a statement that supports decentralisation This assumption by the state leads to the issuance of permits for logging, which certainly leads to more extensive deforestation (Siswanto and Wardojo, 2006).
