Abstract

This article aims to evaluate the local regulation (Perda) No. 14 the Year 2007 concerning the prostitution prohibition in Majalengka Regency, West Java Province. In addition, to assess this regulation, this article also presents the driving factors determining the fruitfulness and failure of such sharia law. Methodologically, this article is qualitative-based research by applying a case study approach. More technically, the research employs documentary and in-depth interview as a data-gathering technique. In order to evaluate this regulation, this research adopts Dunn’s six indicators: effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, responsiveness, equity, and accuracy. The finding demonstrates that among six indicators, four are indicated as a failure. Only effectiveness and efficiency are successful. Thus, this sharia law can be concluded as an unsuccessful regulation. In the meantime, the indicator determining the fruitfulness and failure of the regulation consists of a threefold: adequacy, effectiveness, and responsiveness. To sum up, the government needs a serious effort to operate the regulation suitable with the societal needs and, indeed, supported by the parliament mainly related to the budgeting policy.
