This research analyzes the role of law in supporting community economic development in Yapen Islands Regency from a Constitutional Law perspective. Economic development in resource-rich regions like Yapen Islands Regency requires a strong and progressive normative framework to achieve fair and equitable welfare, emphasizing the need for a robust framework aligned with Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution. Using a Normative Juridical method with a Statutory and Conceptual Approach, this research relies solely on library data analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. Findings indicate that law functions as a tool for social engineering, providing guidance and protection through local regulations. However, its effectiveness is hampered by various multidimensional constraints, including low bureaucratic capacity, weak institutional coordination, and ongoing geographical challenges. This conclusion highlights that realizing equitable development requires superior quality of law enforcement and the application of progressive law to bridge the gap between legal texts and socio-economic realities, ensuring that the law truly empowers the community
