Vatandaşların Anayasal Haklarının Korunmasında Anayasa Mahkemesi’nin Rolü Endonezya Anayasası’na Dayalı Bir Değerlendirme

Anayasa Mahkemesi, Yüksek Mahkeme’ye ilave olarak yargı yetkilerini kullanan organlardan biri olmak üzere, 1999-2002 döneminde anayasada 1945 Anayasası yapılan değişiklikler sonucunda kurulmuş bir yargı organıdır. Değiştirilmiş haliyle 1945 Anayasası’nın 24C maddesinin 1. fıkrası Anayasa Mahkemesi’nin ana görev ve işlevinin anayasayı korumak ve gözetmek olduğunu belirtmektedir. Bu, Anayasa Mahkemesi’nin anayasadaki norm ve hükümlerin sadece bir dizi anlamsız harf ve cümleden ibaret olmamasını, aksine devlet hayatında gerçeğe dönüşmesini ve uygulanmasını sağlaması demektir.
