Abstract

This research seeks to analyze and reflect the urgency of building smart and good citizens in the digital era through the citizenship education program, because it includes efforts to strengthen civic competence in an inclusive and massive manner, citizenship education, and increase youth literacy based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This research was completed based on a qualitative approach, using literature study methods, data analysis techniques, namely reduction, display and verification. The result is, in a world full of easily accessible information, smart citizens must be able to sort and filter correct and trustworthy information. They must have the ability to verify the veracity of information and analyze its sources. This is important to avoid the spread of fake news (hoaxes) and promote accurate knowledge. The digital era also provides many opportunities to participate in people's lives online. Smart citizens can use digital platforms to share ideas, voice opinions, and contribute to issues they care about. They must also be able to communicate well and respect other people's opinions in a digital environment. In addition, Smart citizens must understand the importance of digital ethics in online interactions. They must respect the rights and privacy of others, avoid cyberbullying behavior, and promote a positive and inclusive attitude in cyberspace. Forming good citizens in the digital era means forming individuals who are responsible, empathetic and have social awareness in the use of technology. In order to form smart and good citizens in the digital era, education and awareness of the importance of digital literacy and digital ethics need to be improved. Schools and educational institutions should include subjects that teach technology skills and wise use. Apart from that, the role of parents and the community is also important in providing guidance and good examples in the use of digital technology. In this way, we can create an intelligent, responsible and ethical society in this digital era.

Abstract

This study discusses the importance of applying administrative law principles in formulating just public policies. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this research identifies and analyzes the concept of justice in public policy and the role of accountability, transparency, and public participation principles in supporting inclusive and fair policies. The findings show that accountability ensures responsibility for every decision made, transparency provides adequate access to information for the public, and public participation enables community involvement in the policymaking process. However, several challenges remain, such as low public participation, limited access to information, a closed bureaucratic culture, and suboptimal institutional capacity. To overcome these challenges, solutions are needed, including increasing public legal literacy, optimizing the use of information technology, and strengthening institutional capacity to support a more inclusive and transparent policy process. This study is expected to serve as a reference for policymakers in designing just regulations and promoting better governance.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the enforcement of Regional Regulation Number 10 of 2023 concerning Regional Taxes and Levies by the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) of Asahan Regency, particularly in the arts and entertainment services sector. Arts and entertainment taxes are a significant source of local revenue (PAD) to support regional development. However, the realization of tax revenue in this sector has not met the targeted goals. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving Satpol PP officers and local community members. The findings indicate that enforcement efforts face several challenges, both internal—such as limited human resources, facilities, and budget—and external, such as low awareness and compliance among taxpayers. Satpol PP’s efforts include public outreach, issuing warnings, conducting inspections, and closing businesses that violate the regulation. However, these efforts have not yet achieved optimal effectiveness. Therefore, improved inter-agency coordination, capacity building, and a more comprehensive enforcement strategy are required to increase tax compliance, achieve revenue targets, and maintain the quality of public services.

Abstract

This study examines the strengthening of the supervisory function of the Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) over local government policies in Central Lombok Regency from the perspective of constitutional law. The research is based on the argument that DPRD supervision is not merely an administrative function, but a regional constitutional mechanism for maintaining checks and balances between the regional legislature and the local executive. This study employs empirical legal research with a socio-juridical approach. The data are obtained through field observation, document study, and legal material analysis, focusing on supervisory practices, institutional mechanisms, and policy-control instruments used by the DPRD of Central Lombok Regency. The findings show that DPRD supervision has been institutionally implemented through working meetings, hearings, recess activities, field visits, committee discussions, and recommendations to the local government. However, the effectiveness of supervision remains uneven because it is still affected by limited technical capacity, political dynamics, budgetary constraints, weak monitoring indicators, and insufficient follow-up mechanisms. The novelty of this study lies in its emphasis on DPRD supervision as an empirical manifestation of regional checks and balances, rather than merely a procedural function within local governance. This study contributes to constitutional law scholarship by connecting the normative authority of DPRD with the practical challenges of policy supervision in Central Lombok Regency. The study recommends strengthening DPRD supervision through systematic supervisory indicators, expert support, public participation, digitalized monitoring data, and enforceable follow-up mechanisms.

Abstract

This study examines the neutrality of the State Civil Apparatus (Aparatur Sipil Negara/ASN) in regional head elections in Central Lombok Regency from the perspective of the democratic rule of law principle. The research is based on the argument that ASN neutrality is not merely an administrative obligation, but a constitutional requirement for ensuring fair electoral competition, bureaucratic professionalism, and public trust in local democracy. This study employs empirical legal research with a socio-juridical approach. Data are obtained through field observation, document study, and legal material analysis, focusing on the implementation of ASN neutrality, the supervision of alleged violations, and the institutional response to bureaucratic politicization during regional elections. The findings show that ASN neutrality in Central Lombok Regency has been formally regulated and supervised through preventive and enforcement mechanisms. However, its implementation still faces obstacles, including political pressure, bureaucratic hierarchy, incumbent influence, career dependency, weak ethical internalization, and the growing challenge of digital political expression. The novelty of this study lies in its constitutional framing of ASN neutrality as part of the democratic rule of law principle, rather than merely as an issue of civil service discipline or electoral administration. This study concludes that strengthening ASN neutrality requires continuous legal education, clearer digital conduct guidelines, stronger coordination between election supervisory bodies and personnel authorities, transparent follow-up mechanisms, and institutional protection for ASN from political pressure.

Abstract

This study examines the accountability of the Regional Government of Central Lombok Regency in the provision of public services based on citizens’ constitutional rights. The research is based on the argument that public service is not merely an administrative function of local government, but a constitutional obligation to ensure equality, legal certainty, transparency, participation, accessibility, and protection from maladministration. This study employs empirical legal research with a socio-juridical approach. Data are obtained through field observation, document study, and legal material analysis, focusing on public service standards, institutional procedures, information transparency, complaint mechanisms, service accessibility, and the relationship between public service delivery and citizens’ rights. The findings show that Central Lombok Regency has developed several accountability instruments, including service standards, institutional evaluation, public complaint mechanisms, and service facility improvement. However, the fulfilment of citizens’ constitutional rights requires more than formal compliance; it requires public services that are substantively accessible, responsive, inclusive, affordable, and non-discriminatory. The novelty of this study lies in its constitutional rights-based framing of public service accountability, which places citizens as rights holders and local government as the duty bearer. This study concludes that public service accountability in Central Lombok Regency must be strengthened through rights-based service standards, transparent information systems, effective complaint handling, citizen participation, and inclusive service innovation.
