Paya Rebol protected forest serves as the buffer system of water springs source for the communities in several sub-districts around the forest, such as Bener Kelipah, Bandar and Syah main sub-districts. Unfortunately, illegal activity of converting the protected forest to horticultural agriculture (plant cultivation) still occurs to date. The research used was a descriptive-analytical method with an empirical juridical approach, aimed to examine the law in the real sense and investigate how the law performs in the community. The results showed that supervision conducted by the Aceh Department of Environment and Forestry has not been effective. Hence, illegal logging still occurs due to the economic needs, the lack of forest supervisory personnel, the customs of indigenous peoples, and the unclear boundaries of forest areas. Suggestions for the related authorities are to combine and maximize the preventive and repressive efforts, and early detection, to suppress the cases of encroachment and destruction in the Paya Rebol protected forest area. Abstrak: Hutan lindung Paya Rebol merupakan kawasan hutan yang menjadi sistem penyangga sumber mata air bagi masyarakat di beberapa kecamatan yang berada di sekitar kawasan hutan, seperti kecamatan Bener Kelipah, Bandar dan Syah utama, kegiatan perambahan dan pengrusakan hutan (illegal logging) dengan merubah dan mengalihfungsikan hutan lindung menjadi lahan pertanian hortikultura (budidaya tanaman) secara tidak sah, sampai saat ini masih marak terjadi di kawasan hutan lindung Paya Rebol walaupun sebelumnya Dinas lingkungan Hidup dan kehutanan Aceh bekerja sama dengan pihak kepolisian telah menindak lanjuti kasus perambahan di hutan lindung tersebut, yang terbukti melanggar ketentuan Undang-undang Nomor 18 Tahun 2013 tentang Pencegahan dan Pemberantasan Perusakan Hutan.Yang menjadi fokus permasalahan adalah apa faktor penyebab, masih maraknya kegiatan illegal logging yang mengalih fungsikan hutan lindung, bagaimana modus operandi dan vevendi terjadinya kegiatan  illegal logging, bagaimana sistem penerapan sanksi tindak pidana illegal logging yang terjadi di kawasan hutan lindung Paya Rebol, bagaimanakah upaya pencegahan dan penanggulangan terjadinya tindak pidana illegal logging di kawasan hutan lindung Paya Rebol. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Metode Diskriptif analitis dengan pendekatan Yuridis empiris, yang bertujuan untuk melihat hukum dalam arti nyata dan meneliti bagaimana bekerjanya hukum dalam lingkungan masyarakat serta mengetahui bagaimana penerapan sanksi pidana terhadap kasus illegal logging tersebut. Hasil penelitian menujukan bahwa pengawasan yang dilakukan oleh Dinas lingkungan Hidup dan kehutanan Aceh belum efektif sehingga tindak pidana illegal logging masih terjadi yang disebabkan oleh kebutuhan ekonomi, kurangnya Personel aparat pengawas hutan, kebiasaan masyarakat adat, ketidak jelasan tapal batas kawasan hutan. Saran yang direkomendasikan hendakanya pihak pejabat terkait dapat mengkombinasikan dan memaksimalkan upaya-upaya preventif,upaya represif dan deteksi dini, yang diharapkan dapat terus menekan terjadinya kasus perambahan dan perusakan pada kawasan hutan lindung Paya Rebol.   Kata kunci: Tindak pidana,  Illegal logging, Hutan lindung,  Paya Rebol

Forest damage due to illegal logging and logging is known as illegal logging. Legal protection of the rights of indigenous and tribal peoples to the negative impacts of illegal logging based on the concept of national law and customary law can be done by protecting the interests of indigenous peoples, particularly through legislation, namely Article 67 Article (1) (2) and (3) of the Law Law No. 41 of 1999 concerning Forestry. The need for legal protection for indigenous peoples is vulnerable to violations or neglect of their human rights. The state has the responsibility to promote, protect and uphold human rights against its citizens.

AbstractAmazonian Dark Earths (ADEs) are unusually fertile soils characterised by elevated concentrations of microscopic charcoal particles, which confer their distinctive colouration. Frequent occurrences of pre-Columbian artefacts at ADE sites led to their ubiquitous classification as Anthrosols (soils of anthropic origin). However, it remains unclear how indigenous peoples created areas of high fertility in one of the most nutrient-impoverished environments on Earth. Here, we report new data from a well-studied ADE site in the Brazilian Amazon, which compel us to reconsider its anthropic origin. The amounts of phosphorus and calcium—two of the least abundant macronutrients in the region—are orders of magnitude higher in ADE profiles than in the surrounding soil. The elevated levels of phosphorus and calcium, which are often interpreted as evidence of human activity at other sites, correlate spatially with trace elements that indicate exogenous mineral sources rather than in situ deposition. Stable isotope ratios of neodymium, strontium, and radiocarbon activity of microcharcoal particles also indicate exogenous inputs from alluvial deposition of carbon and mineral elements to ADE profiles,  beginning several thousands of years before the earliest evidence of soil management for plant cultivation in the region. Our data suggest that indigenous peoples harnessed natural processes of landscape formation, which led to the unique properties of ADEs, but were not responsible for their genesis. If corroborated elsewhere, this hypothesis would transform our understanding of human influence in Amazonia, opening new frontiers for the sustainable use of tropical landscapes going forward.

Customary law is the law of life (living low) that grow and develop in the midst of the community in accordancewith the development of society. Customary law who live in midst of ethnic Indonesia is very strategic to be knownand understood by law enforcement officials, legal observers and guidance in applying the appropriate legal andfair for Indonesian society. The common law does not give the right role and the same degree between men andwomen in life, social, culture, political, economic and domestic life and marriage property and inheritance.Landing directly above the law would cause problems among indigenous peoples, especially the indigenous peopleembrace patrilinieal or matrilineal kinship system, such as that experienced by the Batak people who mbracepatrilineal kindship systems knows in Toba Batak society is patrilineal system, which through the male lineage andis the next generation of his parents while girls not the generation of their parents, as a result of this system is veryinfluential on the position of girls in matters of inheritance.

This article deals with the Convention on Biological Diversity, article 8 (j) in connection tothe national and local legislation to be enacted prior to article 8 (j) enforcement. It showsthat for legal protection of Indigenous Peoples’s intangible rights, land rights are to be resolvedby government and organisms devoted to land right claimed by Aboriginal Peoples.The experience of Australia through its recent colonization, decolonization and reviewof social values presented by Rudd Administration secured Indigenous Peoples rights. In conclusion, this article proposes a multi-action from historical, political, legal and jurisprudentialsources for article 8 (j) to be operative.

In July 2021, the Ukrainian Parliament adopted a Law on Indigenous Peoples. It provides a framework for the protection of the rights of the indigenous peoples of the Crimean Peninsula, namely Crimean Tatars, Karaites and Krymchaks, and excludes Mariupol Greeks as a minority potentially qualifying for the status of the fourth indigenous group residing outside of Crimea. What was the general context of the adoption of the Law? What rights does it envisage? And what could the Law potentially bring to the recognized indigenous peoples? This blog post attempts to answer these questions.

Despite a long history of ethnographic research on crime, ethnographers have shied away from examining the law as it relates to being present at, witnessing and recording illegal activity. However, knowledge of the law is an essential tool for researchers and the future of ethnographic research on crime. This article reviews the main relevant legal statutes in England and Wales and considers their relevance for contemporary ethnographic research. We report that researchers have no legal responsibility to report criminal activity (with some exceptions). The circumstances under which legal action could be taken to seize research data are specific and limited, and respondent’s privacy is subject to considerable legal protection. Our review gives considerable reason to be optimistic about the future of ethnographic research.

This article develops a method for analyzing Indigenous erasure in popular film that focuses not on the representations (or lack thereof) of Indigenous peoples but on representations of settlement. Whereas much of the scholarship on Native representations in film has been concerned with Hollywood’s promulgation of the “mythical Indian,” I argue that a focus on settlement—rather than on bodies—is significant in the context of the ongoing, unfinished processes of colonialism, which continue to structure life in white settler states. Cultural representations that reconfigure colonial-occupied life as settled life naturalize settler colonialism while erasing and displacing Indigenous claims to land. I illuminate this method by analyzing how the 1974 “blaxploitation Western” Thomasine and Bushrod imagines settlement. The film features a pair of lovers who are on the run from the law in America’s Southwest from 1911 to 1915. Because it is a film that speaks back to historical constructions of Blackness and Indigeneity, Thomasine and Bushrod productively illuminates how representations of Indigenous erasure work in often ambiguous and contradictory ways.
