Abstract

Development commonly occurs by managing and utilizing natural resources. For example, the use of village land and private land for public interest. The purpose of this research is to find out how the Government Regulation in this case implements compensation in Land Acquisition for Public Interest by Law No.2 of 2012 and how the rights of the village government whose land is affected by Land Acquisition for Public Interest. The land that will be used for the Trans Java Semarang – Solo toll road sector V Salatiga – Boyolali construction project in Tanjungsari Village, Banyudono District, Boyolali Regency. This study uses a normative sociolegal research method and it can be concluded: 1. That compensation for village treasury lands affected by the project according to Law no. 2 of 2012 does have binding legal force. However, in practice, there are still weaknesses such as the method, the basic form of calculating compensation, and the land acquisition mechanism that is carried out. 2. Whereas the obstacles that occurred in the compensation process did not guarantee rights holders get their rights and obligations compared to the previous project. This is because the basis for calculating the compensation only takes into account physical losses, namely: land, buildings, and plants on it. Non-physical losses related to sociology experienced by land rights owners are not calculated and regulated in statutory regulations. This shows that most of the Government's actions in this land acquisition case do not favor the interests of the community in particular.
