Abstract

Villages along the coastal areas in Indonesia have been sociologically inseparable parts of fishing communities inhibiting within the vicinity. They serve not only as dwelling places but also as the source on which the dwellers substantially dependent. Despite the abundant resources available, the fishermen do not seem to prosper. The development programs mainly aimed at economic growth will encourage the government to intensify the natural resource exploration to finance the programs. The spirit to promote regional autonomy should result in bigger roles of the local governments to participate in their autonomously managing their own natural resources. The Law of Republic Indonesia No 6 of 2014 on Villages has not specifically defined the authority to manage the natural resources along the coastal areas as stipulated in The Law of Republic Indonesia No 23 of 2014 on Local Government. With socio-juridical approach, the data of this research was collected from Subdistrict of Muncar, Banyuwangi District. The issues on the matter in Muncar are normatively highlighted to generate recommendations to improve both the institutions and the capacity of resources available to better formulate the operational guidelines.
