Abstract

This article aims to analyze Indonesia's existence within the international regime of CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) concerning the management of transnational environmental crimes associated with the trade of wildlife. The primary focus is to identify and analyze the issues Indonesia encounters in implementing CITES to address environmental crimes. In discussing this topic, the approach encompasses perspectives from Environmental Law Enforcement Theory, Transnational Environmental Crime theory, the concept of International Regimes, and qualitative research methods. The findings in this article reflect Indonesia's perception of CITES as a guideline in its legislative processes and its commitment to adhering to the provisions of this regime to safeguard endangered wildlife from international trade. Through engagement in the international CITES regime, Indonesia has developed various strategies to address these environmental crime issues, categorized into five sectors, including legal, political, environmental, social and cultural aspects, as well as information technology and communication.
