However, the programme so far tends to be unilateral and leads to problematic because it is oftenly not representing the expectations and needs of local community. The previous studies about unilateral CSR in extractive industry, </span>could be<span lang="EN-US"> categorized into two types according to their substances. They are CSR as a form of charity and CSR as a form of mandatory. This study rejects both categories because they have not been maximal in the development of local community. This study argues that the meaning of justice in CSR programme in extractive industry, as a mean to develop local community, can be achieved through relational capability and commitment. This study uses qualitative approach and case study on the CSR programme of </span>a g<span lang="EN-US">eothermal </span>company in Sukabumi regency, West Java, Indonesia<span lang="EN-US">.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center">&nbsp;</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span lang="EN-US">&nbsp;</span></p>
