Abstract
Indonesia is a country that cannot be separated from the nature of pluralism or the plurality of society so it is easy for conflicts to arise. The armed conflict in Papua is the desire of a group of separatists who want to liberate Papua from Indonesia. The inability of law enforcement is one of the factors that cause armed conflict in Papua to continue. First, there is a thought that Papua is left behind economically with other regions in Indonesia where Papua has natural resources and gold mining. However, in terms of economic backwardness in Papua this is also related with the uneven development of several infrastructures in Papua, the most basic of which is the armed conflict that continues to occur in Papua because at the beginning of the handover of territory by the Dutch to Indonesia there were several groups who were not satisfied with the joining of Papua with the Indonesian state.
