Implementation of The Democracy Culture for Fulfillment of The Social Economic Rights for The Correctional Clients at Correctional Center in Central Jakarta-Indonesia

This study aims to describe the application of a democratic culture to fulfill the social economic rights of correctional clients. A democratic state guarantees and protects the human rights of every citizen, including socio-economic and cultural rights. Related to socio-economic rights, where every citizen has the right to work and get comfortable working conditions and free from discrimination. For correctional clients, getting a decent job is not easy because of their status as ex-prisoners. The distrust of former prisoners and the public who have not applied the democratic culture in their daily lives causes many correctional clients to receive discriminatory treatment from the public. The democratic attitude obtained by the client is the attitude of the community around the client's place of residence who is willing to accept the client again after serving a prison sentence, family attitudes that always provide support for the independence of clients and community mentors who provide non-discriminatory guidance and always prioritize the best interests of the client. This study recommends that the government needs to make policies in the field of employment for ex-prisoners so that they can get decent jobs after being released from prison, so that their socio-economic rights are fulfilled and minimizing recidivism actions.
