This article examines community participation in the preparation of the AMDAL document based on the Job Creation Act according to the concept of community participation by Arnstein. With a normative juridical approach, it can be concluded that community participation in the preparation of AMDAL documents according to the Job Creation Law is included in the second level (Tokenism) meaning that public participation is limited in the form of submitting suggestions, opinions and responses but there is no guarantee that the opinions expressed will be considered in decision-making.
