An institutional analysis of customary marine tenure in Maluku : towards implementation Marine cadastre in Indonesia
Hernandi, Andri et al.
Sustainable development is argued to be closely related to the existence of custom. The customary communities in Indonesia have employed a range of resource management techniques to limit marine resource use. Localized control over marine resources, commonly known as customary marine tenure (CMT), is the legal and cultural foundation for many of these practices. This paper outlines the general is of CMT institutional in Maluku Islands in which these characteristics overlap with modern right-based coastal management. It also examines the effectiveness of CMT regimes at regulating marine resource use and access by focusing on a particular case from the Maluku. The custom institutional robustness and vulnerability of CMT is assessed by examining various performance criteria for three communities in the Maluku particularly Ambon Lease that is Ambon, Haruku, and Saparua Island. These criteria could be identified by coverage of the area, social right holding unit and legality and its enforcement using institutional analysis.
