Abstract
This paper discusses the informal model in handling dispute mechanism particularly in land conflict between the government and the local people in the Taman Sari urban village, Bandung Wetan sub-district. Several studies on Taman Sari land conflict resolution, indicate how formal mechanism have been utilized in handling land conflict through the use legal channels or formal mediation by involving legal aid institutions, non-governmental organization or involving agencies related to the settlement of community policing such as the TNI, the Indonesian Police force, and Satpol PP. However, to date there has been no study that discusses an informal approach utilized by the Bandung city government in particular, the head of Bandung Wetan Sub-District. This approach actually has a significant effect on the resolution of land disputes. To gather data and information, this study uses a qualitative approach by using focus group discussions (FGD), interviews, library literature studies and government’s reports and documentations. The results indicate that a land dispute resolution model by emphasizing the informal approach is very effective in resolving land ownership disputes. This model is potential to become a reference for observers of conflict resolution, especially land ownership disputes in the future
