Abstract

The rapid urbanization of Jakarta has led to increasing cases of forced evictions as part of urban development projects, often resulting in significant social and economic displacement for marginalized communities. Despite legal frameworks aimed at protecting the rights of these residents, forced evictions remain a persistent issue, raising concerns about social justice and inequality in urban planning. This research aims to explore the sociological dimensions of forced evictions in Jakarta, focusing on the experiences of displaced communities and their forms of resistance. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study combines qualitative interviews with affected residents and key stakeholders, along with an analysis of official documents and reports from NGOs. The findings reveal that forced evictions are often justified by development agendas that prioritize economic growth over the rights of local residents, exacerbating social inequalities. Furthermore, community resistance takes diverse forms, including legal battles, protests, and informal negotiations with local authorities. This study concludes that urban development in Jakarta often neglects the principles of social justice, with significant implications for the future of inclusive urban planning. It calls for more equitable development policies that prioritize the rights of displaced communities and ensure their participation in the decision-making process.

Abstract

Traditional culinary arts represent not only gastronomic heritage but also local identity and economic potential for communities. However, globalization and rapid changes in consumption patterns have contributed to a gradual decline in cultural food practices, especially in rural areas. Digital platforms offer new opportunities to preserve, promote, and commercialize traditional cuisines while strengthening community participation in the cultural economy. This study aims to examine how digital platforms can be effectively utilized to document culinary heritage, enhance market visibility for local food artisans, and foster sustainable community empowerment. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining qualitative interviews with culinary practitioners and tourism stakeholders, along with observational analysis of digital content and online engagement metrics. The findings reveal that digital platforms particularly social media, e-commerce applications, and online storytelling tools play a significant role in revitalizing traditional culinary knowledge, expanding product reach to broader markets, and increasing income opportunities for local communities. However, inconsistencies in digital literacy and limited access to technology remain significant constraints. The study concludes that integrating digital strategies into cultural food preservation programs can strengthen community resilience while ensuring the continuity of culinary heritage across generations. A collaborative ecosystem involving local governments, educational institutions, and technology providers is necessary to optimize digital empowerment outcomes. Future studies are encouraged to explore scalable models for digital culinary entrepreneurship to support sustainable cultural economy development.

Abstract

Background. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into automated decision-making systems has introduced significant ethical and legal concerns, particularly regarding algorithmic bias. Purpose. These biases can perpetuate systemic discrimination, distort outcomes in critical sectors such as healthcare, finance, and criminal justice, and challenge the foundational principles of fairness and transparency. Despite widespread recognition of the issue, there remains a normative gap in regulatory responses across jurisdictions.   Method. This study aims to explore the ethical challenges of algorithmic bias and assess the adequacy of existing legal frameworks in addressing these concerns. Results. Using a normative legal research design, the study employs comparative analysis across selected regulatory regimes in the EU, US, and Asia, supported by doctrinal analysis of AI-related policies and ethical codes. Findings reveal fragmented regulatory landscapes, a lack of binding accountability mechanisms, and insufficient integration of ethical principles into enforceable legal norms. Conclusion. The study concludes that an interdisciplinary approach merging ethical theory with legal doctrine is essential to regulate algorithmic bias effectively. A normative framework grounded in transparency, accountability, and inclusivity is proposed to guide future legislation and policy development.
