Abstract

Law No. 6 Year 2014 on the Village defines a rural community empowerment as an effort to develop independence and public welfare by improving the knowledge, attitudes, skills, behavior, ability, awareness and use of resources through the establishment of policies, programs, activities, and assistance in accordance with the essence of the problem and the priority needs of rural communities. The definition illustrates the government's desire to make the existing villages throughout the territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia into an independent village in accordance with the potential owned by each village. The empowerment of rural communities into an alternative development to realize the wishes of the government to establish the village community so that the goal of Indonesian independence to realize prosperous and just society can be realized soon. The rural-urban development disparities that have occurred so far can be overcome by the issuance of the new Village Law. The empowerment of village communities will only work well if the empowerment process is able to utilize and utilize the potential of social capital in the village.
