Abstract

This study analyzes the implementation of policies in resolving forestry conflicts in Pelalawan District. Forestry sector conflict is something that commonly happens in Indonesia. One of them is in Pelalawan Regency, one of the districts in Riau Province where there are many conflicts between the community and the Company. The conflict is the result of the operation of many Industrial Plantation Forest (HTI) companies in Pelalawan Regency. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. . The results of this study analyze the factors that cause conflict to occur. There are historical-sociological factors, economic disparity, the clash of customary forests and state forests, as well as policy inconsistencies in the forestry sector. Then, the Grindle Policy Implementation Theory is also used to analyze the phenomena that occur. This study found the fact that the Government had been seemingly ignorant of the conflict. The Regency Government, the Provincial Government, and the Central Government throw together responsibilities in resolving conflicts between the community and the Industrial Plantation Forest (HTI) companies. Suggestions for the FOREST Model are expected to resolve forestry conflicts in Pelalawan District. The Head of Government in the Region, in this case the Riau Governor, is the main actor in charge of resolving future forestry sector conflicts. In its implementation, conflict resolution is carried out by maximizing the rules on the exchange of forest areas, employment and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs that are well targeted by Industrial Plantation Forest (HTI) companies.
