Background Implementation of the constitutional guarantee of freedom of religion/belief in Indonesia is mandated under the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia as amended in the years 2000-2004. In addition to being a constitutional mandate, implementation of the guarantee of freedom of religion/belief is also a consequence of the political act of the state in ratifying the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights in 2005 through Law of the Republic of Indonesia No. 12 of 2005. On the constitutional mandate and the legal mandate above, the entire national paradigm of Indonesia is set forth in documents arising from a consensus among Indonesian people affirming that plurality is a sociological fact that must be held in high esteem, respected, and continues to be maintained. The Indonesian nation was established precisely because of the acknowledgment of this diversity. The People’s Consultative Assembly (Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat/MPR) of the Republic of Indonesia has also affirmed four pillars of the life of the nation and state. Apart from being a response to concerns about the current state of the Indonesian nation, the MPR in very timely fashion again rolled out a genuine consensus born out of the long history of the Indonesian people. Since 2009, 1 The Condition of Freedom of Religion/ Belief in Indonesia 2011 MPR RI has continued to campaign on the Four Pillars of National Life, namely Pancasila, Unity in Diversity (Bhinneka Tunggal Ika), Constitution, and the United Nation of the Republic of Indonesia (Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia/NKRI). At the level of the vision of nationality, the four pillars of the life of the nation and state appear to be a kind of affirmation that puts an end to the various tensions occurring throughout the history of this nation. Tension in relations between religion and state, relations between the majority and minorities, and an emphasis on the positive values of particular religions [can be found] in the text of the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.1 These tensions have been overcome normatively by pushing a genuine consensus confirming that this country was established based on Pancasila, which guarantees diversity of ethnicity. Further, the1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia asserts more robustly on guaranteeing acknowledgment of diversity, including guaranteeing diversity of religions/beliefs by formulating the constitutional right guaranteeing freedom of religion/belief. It has to be admitted that the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia fails to affirm the ideal form of the State of the Republic of Indonesia, whether it is a secular state or a religious state. Nevertheless, the constitutional guarantee of freedom of religion/belief should be appreciated. Apart from the emphasis in Article 29 (1), which mentions that “The State shall be based upon the belief in One Almighty God”, the argument on the imperfect structure of the state is also reflected in the formulation of the limits to the guarantees of the constitutional rights of citizens recorded in Article 28 J (2), which reads: “In exercising his/her rights and freedoms, every person shall have the duty to accept the restrictions established by law for the sole purpose of guaranteeing the recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of satisfying just demands based 1 Note that these events took place during the formulation of the Text for the Youth Pledge, the debate at BPUPKI while preparing the Text for the 1945 Constitution, and the debate on the Amendment of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia concerning Article 29 in 2000-2004. 2 The Condition of Freedom of Religion/ Belief in Indonesia 2011 upon considerations of morality, religious values, security and public order in a democratic society.” The formulation of the limits to the guarantee on citizens’ constitutional rights in the sentence “..based upon considerations of morality, religious values,...”opens up the opportunity for the interpretation by the majority group to dominate, culminating in tense relations between the majority and minorities. The guarantee of this right is blunted in the face of the consideration that such right conflicts with religious values. Reliance on religious values when considering the legitimacy of guaranteeing a right has meant the firm guarantee in the legal formulation is negated by competing interpretations of religious

Pluralism is not a cause of conflict, but the orientation which is owned by each of the components that determine how they’re viewing themselves psychologically in front of others. “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika” is an Old Javanese phrase of the book “Sutasoma” written by Mpu Tantular during the reign of the Majapahit sometime in the 14th century, which literally means “Diverse, yet united” or perhaps more poetically in English: Unity in Diversity.

  • Bhineka Tunggal Ika As a Source of Politics and the Identity of Indonesian Culture in the Formation of Law
    International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 13, Issue 7, 2020 Bhineka Tunggal Ika as a Source of Politics and the Identity of Indonesian Culture in the Formation of Law Gede Marhaendra Wija Atmajaa, aFaculty of Law, Udayana University, Email: [email protected], [email protected] The purpose of this study is to analyse Bhineka Tunggal Ika as a source of politics and cultural identity in the formation of law in Indonesia. In general, no one knows or even uses Bhineka Tunggal Ika as the source of legal formation. However, often the formation of law in Indonesia refers to the philosophical meaning of Bhineka Tunggal Ika. The research problems are as follows : 1) What are the markers of Bhineka Tunggal Ika in legal formation? 2) Why is Bhineka Tunggal Ika so important? 3) Does Bhineka Tunggal Ika contribute to the formation of customary law? This research was completed using qualitative methods. All data was collected directly or indirectly. Data acquisition was optimised through a literature study. All data was analysed qualitatively. The results showed that: 1) Bhineka Tunggal Ika can be a marker of Indonesian cultural identity in legal pluralism; 2) Bhineka Tunggal Ika, in the formation of state law, is considered relevant as a political source to accommodate customary law and religious law into state law; 3) Bhineka Tunggal Ika, as it relates to the identity of Indonesian national culture, has contributed to the formation of customary law in the midst of modern times. Key words: Politics, Identity of Indonesian Culture, Law, Indonesia. Introduction Cultural identity is a reflection of social security (Pradana, 2019).
