Abstract

The influence of politics on law also applies to law enforcement, the characteristics of legal products, and the process of their formation. The number of legal products produced is increasing quantitatively, but their legal substance and function do not always improve or align with public aspirations. The asynchronous relationship between legal structure and legal function, as mentioned above, is caused by intervention or disruption from political actions. The purpose of this study is to determine and analyze the causality between the political and legal subsystems, namely, how the political configuration and the omnibus law influence the process of forming legislation in Indonesia. The research method used is a doctrinal method analyzed using qualitative analysis. The results show that the Omnibus Law is a method or technique in the formation of laws with the aim of simultaneously amending several previously applicable laws. The legal policy direction of the formation of Law No. 13 of 2022 is solely to provide a legal umbrella for Law No. 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. The implications of the formation of Law No. 13 of 2022 are principally a follow-up by the Lawmakers to the Constitutional Court Decision No. 91/PUU-XVIII/2020 regarding the need for regulations regarding the omnibus method, clarifying the concept of meaningful public participation.
