The Criticism of Human Rights Violations in Indonesia
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the concept of human rights violations in Indonesia by identifying human rights violation provisions in Indonesia and human rights violations in Indonesia based on the Philosophy of Ethics. This study uses a qualitative approach with a type of library research. The data analysis technique uses the flow charts model. The theoretical analysis technique uses the Summa Theologiae by Thomas Aquinas and the Ethica by Baruch de Spinoza. The 1998 tragedy is included in the gross human rights violations in Indonesia. Especially Summa Theologiae and Ethica, the statement of the state administrator, in this case, is that the MENKO-POLHUKAM is far from the existence of moral values and ethical virtues. This is based on the absence of moral values that should lead to action as a decision-making agenda through ethics and intellectual traditions. In this regard, the MENKO-POLHUKAM cannot construct a rational nature in the context of basic choices being dominated by “lust” through “affectus”. So, it tends to lead to the “libertum atribium” being free. Ethically, the MENKO-POLHUKAM, as a state administrator, is required to do good deeds and be able to respect victims of human rights violations.
