Abstract
In the context of the development of
environmental laws and regulations in Wonosobo Regency, the study of
environmental ethics is very important to analyze, especially based on the
principles contained in the Stockholm Declaration. This declaration, resulting
from the UN Environment Conference in 1972, emphasizes the importance of
environmental protection as part of human rights and the collective
responsibility to maintain the sustainability of natural resources. This study
aims to examine the relationship of environmental ethics theory to laws and
regulations in Indonesia in the field of environment, as well as to find out
its relationship with the free market in international trade. Globalization has
influenced the shift in environmental ethics in international environmental
instruments. Existing legal instruments are full of anthropocentric
environmental ethics and are now biocentrism, such as the Stockholm
Declaration. The implementation of international environmental instruments is
challenged by the existence of a free market in international trade. This
greatly affects the enforcement of environmental laws in Indonesia which has
passed Law No. 32 of 2009. The research approach used is normative juridical.
The results of the research are that the mechanism of environmental regulations
in Indonesia is in accordance with international instruments. Where
international instruments have undergone a philosophical change to ecocentrism
with the main concept of sustainable development. Free market flows that
encourage investment growth have a tendency to increase systematic white-collar
crime in regional autonomy policies by regional officials. An example of a case
that occurred was in Wonosobo Regency, Central Java.
