We sued the Legal Compliance
Legal expert Prof. Sociology Satjipto Raharjo, in his book "-The Other Side Of The Law in Indonesia, Compass Publishing, 2003", implicitly concluded that, the feeling of not guilty, even if the decision judex factie (PN and PT) has been declared guilty in question is a bad precedent for culture of law enforcement in this country ". Critical view of the legal sociologist kmenjadi it worth our reflection together, since it contained a very deep message about the need we mentradisikan legal culture in this country, because the law is impossible without an embedded culture of law can be enforced with justice.
Legal culture is closely connected with law and legal compliance awareness within the community. In the legal culture of a tradition that can be seen daily public behavior that is consistent and reflects the will of the law or the guidelines established law applies to all legal subjects in the life of nation and state. In the legal culture of society can also be seen whether our society in the legal consciousness has really uphold the law as a rule in life together and as a basis to resolve any issues arising from the risk of living together. However, look at the material, it is hard to build a legal culture in this country.
Surely the public legal awareness alone is not enough to build the legal culture in this country, because the legal consciousness of the community is still an abstraction, not a real form of behavior, even though our society either instinctively or rationally actually aware of the necessity of obedience and respect for the law . Therefore even though our society is aware of the laws in force in the country, our society is not necessarily comply with the law. Compliance with the law is a substantial thing in building the legal culture in this country, and whether it is actually legal compliance?.
Writers need to emphasize again, that compliance with the law society is essentially a community loyalty or legal person whose loyalty is to the law is manifested in a tangible form of behavior to the law abiding. In a contra-rio lawless society because society is faced with two lawsuits in which the fidelity between loyalty to a conflict with any other allegiance. For example community faced with fidelity to the law or the loyalty to "personal interests" that are contrary to law, such as the number of traffic violations, corruption, acts of anarchism, etc.. Moreover, people dare not become law-abiding personal interest because the law has no authority anymore, where law enforcement because of his personal interest is also no longer be good law enforcement. So in this case, loyalty to self-interest becomes the starting base of why human beings or society we are not obedient to the law.
If the loyalty factor can not be relied upon again to make people obey the law, then the state or government will inevitably have to build and make the public fear as a factor that makes law-abiding society. If we have consistently built the country into state law, anyone should be subject to the law. Law can not be enforced in a discriminatory, impartial to anyone and anything, except to truth and justice itself. Therein lies the justice of law. But if the law applied discriminatory, can not be trusted again as a means to fight for rights and justice, then do not blame if people would fight for their rights through the law of the jungle or physical violence. Therefore the law should have the authority to uphold the rule of law so that people can respect it in the form of obedience to the law itself. Thus the need to build a culture of law is a matter of principle in state law, which the law must be able to change society for the better, more organized, more could be trusted to fight for rights and justice, more able to create a sense of security.
