THE CONCEPT OF STATE ECONOMIC POLICY IN THE FIELD OF HALAL TOURISM IN THE CONTEXT OF LEGAL PLURALISM IN INDONESIA

Abstract

Indonesia as a country with the largest Muslim population, is influenced by the application of Islamic law in society. Tourism management with the concept of halal is increasingly used by regions to attract both domestic and foreign tourists. The purpose of this research is to determine the position of laws in the context of diversity when regulating halal tourism policies. There is Islamic law that underlies the concept of halal tourism, and on the other hand, there is state law that also regulates the field of tourism. The legal research method with a statutory approach and a concept approach is used to answer the research objectives. The results showed that the enactment of laws other than state law was found in the practice of managing tourism in Indonesia. The state constitution gives authority to the regions based on their privileges to regulate and manage their regions. However, the regions are prohibited from making policies that are contrary to the principles of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. The religious legal system and the state legal system show their relationship in tourism development in Indonesia. State legal arrangements still dominate the enactment of the Islamic legal system in tourism management; this is indicated by the limitations of regulating the halal concept criteria used as parameters, which must not conflict with the Principles of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. However, the relationship between the two is also very accommodating in regulating halal tourism.
