Abstract
The Papuan People's Assembly (Majelis Rakyat Papua-MRP) is a cultural representation of the Papuan people, which has an important role in protecting the rights of the Papuan people in the fields of customs and culture, empowering women, and religious harmony. So far, the authority of the MRP is quite limited because it is not supported by a strong legislative function. In 2021, the Papua Special Autonomy Law, which has been in effect since 2001, underwent significant changes. In this study, we conclude that the amendment to the Special Autonomy Law for Papua does not reflect the aspirations of the Papuan people, especially the consideration of strengthening the MRP institution. We also provide several reasons why the MRP institution should be strengthened so that changes to the Papua Special Autonomy Law can benefit the province of Papua.
巴布亚人民议会（Majelis Rakyat Papua MRP）是巴布亚人民的文化代表，在保护巴布亚人民在习俗和文化领域的权利、赋予妇女权力和宗教和谐方面发挥着重要作用。到目前为止，MRP的权威相当有限，因为它没有强大的立法功能支持。2021年，自2001年起生效的《巴布亚特别自治法》发生了重大变化。在这项研究中，我们得出的结论是，巴布亚特别自治法的修正案没有反映巴布亚人民的愿望，特别是加强MRP制度的考虑。我们还提供了为什么应该加强MRP机构的几个原因，以便对巴布亚特别自治法的修改能够使巴布亚省受益。
期刊介绍：
Cosmopolitan Civil Societies: An Interdisciplinary Journal is concerned with developing a better understanding of social change and cultural cohesion in cosmopolitan societies. Its focus lies at the intersection of conflict and cohesion, and in how division can be transformed into dialogue, recognition and inclusion. The Journal takes a grounded approach to cosmopolitanism, linking it to civil society studies. It opens up debate about cosmopolitan engagement in civil societies, addressing a range of sites: social movements and collective action; migration, cultural diversity and responses to racism; the promotion of human rights and social justice; initiatives to strengthen civil societies; the impact of ‘information society’ and the context of environmental change.
