History

[edit]

Nomenclature

[edit]

The Ministry of Law and Human Rights was established on 19 August 1945 as the Department of Justice (Departemen Kehakiman).[1] The preceding agency in the Dutch Colonial Era was Departemen Van Justitie, based on Herdeland Yudie Staatblad No. 576. In 2001–2004, the ministry was known as the Department of Law and Legislation (Departemen Hukum dan Perundang-Undangan). From 2004–2009, the ministry was known as the Department of Law and Human Rights (Departemen Hukum dan Hak Asasi Manusia). Since 2009, it has been known as the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights (Kementerian Hukum dan Hak Asasi Manusia).[1]

Responsibility

[edit]

The Department of Justice, as of 1945, was responsible for matters of court, jail, and attorneys. Its responsibilities were expanded to include the Attorney and Topography Agency in 1945. However, the Topography Agency was transferred to the Department of Defense in 1946. The creation of the Department of Religious Affairs resulted in the transfer of the Islamic High Court (Mahkamah Islam Tinggi) to the new department on 3 January 1946. Since 22 July 1960, the Attorney General's Office has been elevated into a position that is equal to a ministerial office. Thus, the Attorney General has been independent of the Minister of Justice since then. The transfer of the General Court (Peradilan Umum) and State Administration Court (Pengadilan Tata Usaha Negara) to the Supreme Court (Mahkamah Agung) was started in 1999 and finished on 31 March 1999. Thus, the Ministry has different responsibilities.[1]

Elevation and division

[edit]

Until the Onward Indonesia Cabinet, the ministry was named the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, which primarily focused on coordinating, managing, and developing state matters in legal affairs, human rights, immigration, and correction. Due to the broad focus and responsibilities of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights on the Red and White Cabinet, President Prabowo Subianto split the Ministry of Law and Human Rights into four ministries:
