Abstract

The type of research used in this research is normative legal research. The position of Philippe Nonet and Philip Selznick to understand and analyze characteristics of responsive law as a form of legal harmonization. In terms of the scope of legal harmonization, L.M. Gandhi, who quoted the book Tussen eenheid en verscheidenheid: Opstellen over harmonization instaaat en bestuurecht (1988) said that harmonization in law includes adjustments to laws and regulations, government decisions, judges' decisions, the legal system and legal principles with the aim of increasing legal unity,  legal certainty, justice (justice, gerechtigheid) and comparability (equit, billijkeid), usefulness and clarity of law, without obscuring and sacrificing legal pluralism if necessary. The function of law and politics in view of Philip Nonet and Philip Shelnick is a very close relationship, the law is a statutory regulation which is actually a crystallization of political wills that interact and influence each other.  Legal politics is defined as official line of state policy to make and stipulate laws and regulations in order to achieve ideals and goals of the state as contained in preamble of 1945 Constitution Republic of Indonesia, paragraph IV. The implementation of legal politics is in form of enactment of legislation that is used as a tool to achieve state goals, which is in accordance with the basic framework of national legal politics, which can be seen in PROLEGNAS and PROLEGDA.
