Meninjau Kembali Strict Liability: Perkembangan Konseptual dan Tantangannya dalam Ajudikasi Lingkungan di Indonesia

  • Etheldreda E L T Wongkar The University of Melbourne

Abstract

Departing from the spirit of strengthening environmental law enforcement against polluters and environmental degraders, the concept of strict liability has continuously developed in Indonesia. This article examines how strict liability has evolved in environmental legislation in Indonesia and how the courts have interpreted it in environmental adjudication. Using a doctrinal legal research method with conceptual, historical and decision study approaches, this article argues that there are inconsistencies and ambiguities in understanding the concept of strict liability as civil liability in Indonesia. To overcome these problems, strict liability should be placed separately from the civil liability standard for tortious acts.
