Abstract

Implementation of state defense in Indonesia can be implemented in military and non-military. Civilians can also be involved in state defense including in those conducted militarily, therefore this study is aimed at examining how national law arrangements regulate the involvement of civilians in state defense which may be involved in military defense and how international humanitarian law regulates the involvement of civilians. This research uses normative legal research. The result of the research shows that involvement of civilians in military state defense can affect them losing the protection they should enjoy in armed conflict.
