Norm Certainty and Enforcement Legitimacy in Local Public Order Regulation
Kata Kunci:
local regulation, public order, norm certainty, legitimacy, procedural fairness, discretion, complianceAbstrak
Local public order regulations aim to shape everyday conduct in shared spaces through prohibitions, duties, and administrative measures. This article presents a normative account of how such regulation can be appraised within social practice by linking norm certainty, enforcement legitimacy, and citizen compliance. It argues that clear legal language limits excessive discretion and supports equal treatment across comparable cases. It also maintains that legitimacy arises when officials act with proportionality, provide reasons, follow orderly procedures, and communicate goals in accessible terms. Compliance is described as most stable when it flows from understanding and acceptance of the public order purpose, rather than fear or short term calculation. The discussion outlines criteria for procedural fairness, including consistent stages of action, recorded reasons for urgent measures, and opportunities for clarification in minor cases. It further emphasizes that enforcement messages should target measurable conduct and avoid stigmatizing identity, so that informal social judgments reinforce civility rather than exclusion. The article concludes that durable public order requires alignment between rule clarity, accountable authority, and dignified interaction in public space governance.
