Disputes overlapping land plot boundaries partially or completely make
the parties uncomfortable, unhappy and cause losses in time, energy and costs.
Moreover, if the plot of land that is the object of dispute results in reduced access
to sources of livelihood, welfare and even threats to human rights or other
suffering in legal handling and settlement. This research aims to explore the
nature of the value of legal protection for land ownership and its implementation
in resolving overlapping boundary disputes. The methods used are normative
juridical, conceptual, philosophical and biblical theological approaches.The
results of this research show that humans and land have a fundamental
philosophical and religious relationship that cannot be separated throughout the
history of their lives. Because land is a gift from God, a source of life, for
prosperity and justice and happiness, so its nature is eternal, sacred and
dialogical. These values are the embodiment of the values of the Pancasila philosophy as a guarantee of legal protection for every land ownership right holder. Therefore, the Government in casu the Land Office must be responsible for providing preventive or repressive legal protection in order to guarantee and
defend the human rights of every citizen as a juridical consequence of Indonesia being a legal state.
