Land conflict resolution: Case study in Sarirejo Village

This study aims to describe the factors that cause land conflicts between the community and the Air Force in the Indonesian Air Force in Suwondo and the strategies that the community uses in demanding their land rights. The author chose a qualitative approach with the ethnographic method to understand more deeply what is behind an event that took the process, causes and conflict resolution. The results showed that the factor causing the conflict was the claim of each party to the land. Conflict resolution efforts are carried out by the community to obtain land rights through non-litigation advocacy processes and litigation advocacy. The results of these two strategies were able to encourage the government to restore community rights to their land even though it had to go through a long struggle. In July 2020 the government issued a policy to move the Sowondo Base to Langkat Regency.

Evaluation and Scale Forecast of Underground Space Resources of Historical and Cultural Cities in China

Following economic growth in the past three decades, rapid urbanization has caused many pronounced issues, such as spatial scarcity and cultural discontinuity, in Chinese historical and cultural cities. In order to better deal with the diversification of underground space resources, data and information, this study introduces a random forest algorithm and proposes a multi-layer information superposition method. According to the characteristics of different information, starting from qualitative and quantitative aspects, we explore the effective performance of the rational development of underground space resources. Taking Yangzhou City, China, as an example, this paper evaluates the suitability and calculates the development volume of urban underground space. The development capacity, potential value, and comprehensive quality of underground space resources are explored in an attempt to demonstrate the practicality and scientificity of the evaluation method for achieving the developmental goals of urban space reconstruction and historic preservation. On this basis, an underground space scale forecast is carried out to provide decision support for relevant planners, managers, and construction personnel that is conducive to the orderly development of urban space, alleviation of increasing human–land conflicts, and coordination of the protection and development of underground space resources in historical and cultural cities, ultimately promoting sustainable development of cities.

VIEWS OF POLITICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL TRENDS RELATED TO THE LAND CONFLICT AND ITS STATUS

The land conflict has long been a type of actual conflict. There are land conflicts of various levels in Kazakhstan. There are different points of view related to the land conflict. There are many prerequisites for the emergence of these views. The study examined the views of representatives of various political and philosophical trends related to the status of the earth. Representatives of the liberal trend consider land as capital. The analysis of the works of representatives of the liberal movement considering land as capital is carried out. Representatives of the socialist trend consider land as state property. Lenin's works deal with issues related to the resolution of the land conflict. Representatives of postcolonialism explain the emergence of the earthly conflict by the influence of colonial empires. In connection with the land conflict, the positions of the Alash intelligentsia are considered. Meanwhile, the analysis of differences in the views of socialists and the Alash intelligentsia in resolving the land conflict was carried out. In traditional Kazakh society, land is considered as a value. This is not consistent with the concepts of capital or property. The earth is considered as a sacred concept. A comparative analysis of such different points of view is carried out. The historical prerequisites for the emergence of a land conflict at the present time are considered.

POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF LAND DEED IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF NOTARY POSITION

This study aims to find out the potential conflicts on Land Deeds made by Notaries and to find out Notary efforts in making Land Deeds to minimize potential land conflicts. The method used in this study is the normative legal research method. In addition, the statute approach, conceptual approach, and analytical approach are the approach used in this study. The results of this study showed that (1) potential conflicts on Land Deeds made by Notaries are due to Notaries in carrying out their positions tend to be in a dilemma which on the one hand must comply with legal provisions with a normative nature, and on the other hand, empirical facts are so complex and often cannot be handled and accommodated by regulations that tend to be rigid. This is because when carrying out its positions, the Notary must serve the client, while the client needs service without being too concerned with the regulations that bind the Notary. (2) Notary efforts in issuing Land Deeds to minimize the potential for Land Conflicts are required to examine the completeness of documents by applying the precautionary principle to protect the real owner and reduce conflicts in the land sector. The application of the precautionary principle of the Notary in producing the PPJB deed and the Lease Agreement deed to registered land rights to be registered at the Land Office must start from the stage before the deed, the stage at which the deed is made and the reading of the deed.

Economic Impacts of Violent Conflicts in Nasarawa State, Nigeria

The study analysed the impacts of violent conflicts on the economies of rural communities in Nasarawa State, Nigeria. Primary data were collected from the respondents using a structured interview schedule, while focus group discussions (FGD) sessions were employed to assess effects of conflicts on communities. Data were analysed using simple descriptive statistics, alternative resource cost estimation (ARCE) and content analysis while the Likert scale was used to measure the perception of respondents towards the causes of conflicts. There were six (6) major categories of conflicts identified in the area. These categories were communal conflicts, ethnic conflicts, resource conflicts (most often land conflicts), politically motivated conflicts, conflicts due to traditional chieftaincy, and the conflicts between state forces and militia groups. Expansion of agro-pastoralism (4.6) and Extensive sedentism (4.5) were very serious factors that were perceived to lead to conflicts. A total of ₦2,289,859,549 worth 30.28% of the State’s 2018 IGR (Internal Generated Revenue) were lost in these conflicts. It was recommended that laws regarding people with diverse backgrounds and socioeconomic needs and population growth in relation to limited resources should be developed with great care and attention paid to all the parties involved in the process. Participatory approaches to problem identification, conflict management and resolutions need to be established in the communities with regular interactions between and among locals periodically and frequently.

Penyelesaian Konflik Penguasaan Tanah HGU dengan Masyarakat di Bengkulu Utara

The increasing number of land conflicts, particularly over HGU (Hak Guna Usaha/Right to Cultivate) land, has far-reaching implications for the community. On the one hand, the community requires land, while on the other, the company seeks to defend what they consider are their rights. Because this argument attracts others, it is necessary for a government agency to act as a referee or facilitator to resolve the resulting conflict. The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that contribute to land tenure conflicts between the community and three companies that own HGU, as well as to explain the role of the Ministry of ATR/BPN in resolving those conflicts. The data collection method used in this study was a qualitative one presented in a descriptive manner, followed by a comparative/comparative analysis of the cases. The results suggested that the conflict arose because community members were inneed of land reclaimed on HGU land, while HGU holders made a little positive contribution to the residents surrounding the plantation. With regards to this situation, the Ministry of ATR/BPN attempted to resolve it through relatively effective methods, namely acting as a mediator and negotiator, delaying the HGU extension process, and eventually distributing some of it to the community. The partial efforts made thus far have been relatively effective and provide a sense of security for the landowners.

INTRODUCTORY STUDY ON THE INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAW APPLICABLE TO ARMED CONFLICTS AT SEA

The purpose of the international humanitarian law applicable to armed conflicts at sea is the same as the International Humanitarian Law relevant to land conflicts: to reduce the destructive consequences of the armed conflict to a minimum, to protect the civilians and other non-combatants, as well as the civilian and cultural objects, to ensure a minimal consideration of some fundamental human rights and to limit the means and methods of warfare in accordance with the four customary cardinal principles, as considered by the International Court of Justice in its advisory opinion on the Legality of the Use of Nuclear Weapons: the principles of humanity, distinction, proportionality and military necessity. Without any pretense of being an exhaustive study on the subject, the purpose of this article is to offer introductory insight into the international law of naval warfare.

Model of conflict resolution at KHDTK Carita through participatory action research

The Minister of Environment and Forestry has designated 52 units of Special Purpose Forest Areas (KHDTK) in 2015, in which the Research Development and Innovation Agency manages 35 units with an area of 37,569 ha. In fact, almost all of the KHDTK areas are inseparable from land conflicts with local communities, including in KHDTK Carita. More than 600 farmers have encroached 80% of the area by developing non-forestry crops. This study aims to provide a policy recommendation for conflict resolution in KHDTK and encourage the acceleration of implementation and achievement of national priority policy targets for social forestry. For this study, a participatory action research (PAR) approach is used to encourage social change at the local level and policies at national level. The results of the study reveal that there are two types of conflict namely management conflict involving three different institutions, and utilization conflict involving residents who live in two different villages. A combination of a local elite approach and a formal (legality) approach are needed in conflict resolution. Recognition and protection of forestry partnerships (Kulin KK) is also one of the solutions offered in conflict resolution.
