PENDAHULUAN Kelahiran merupakan peristiwa yang membahagiakan bagi setiap keluarga dan merupakan peristiwa penting dalam kehidupan manusia yang harus di catatkan, namum terdapat kesalahan persepsi yang memandang pencatatan kelahiran hanya sebagai bagian dari pekerjaan teknis administratif. Pencatatan kelahiran seharusnya merupakan manifestasi dari hak asasi manusia. Masyarakat dan para birokrat pemerintahan harus memandang urusan KTP dan akta kelahiran bukan hanya urusan teknis administrasi kependudukan, akan tetapi merupakan hak anak yang harus dipenuhi. [1]. Pencatatan kelahiran adalah hak anak yang paling dasar yang seharusnya diberikan negara. Deklarasi Universal Hak Asasi Manusia menyatakan setiap orang mempunyai hak untuk diakui sebagai manusia di mana pun di depan hukum.[2] Pernyataan ini juga dipertegas dalam Kovenan Internasional mengenai Hak Sipil dan Politik. Dalam perspektif HAM, sebuah nama bersifat universal, terlepas dengan latar belakang politik, agama, dari orangtua mereka. Dalam perspektif tersebut pencatatan kelahiran merupakan kewajiban negara untuk mencatat kelahiran anak-anak di Indonesia. Konstruksi tersebut seharusnya menempatkan akta kelahiran sebagai sebuah dokumen yang amat penting dalam sebuah perkawinan sebagaimana brought to you by CORE View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk provided by Talenta Publisher (E-Journals, Universitas Sumatera Utara)
