Abstract

The phenomenon of e-commerce in Indonesia has demonstrated rapid growth, with high transaction values projected in 2024. However, the circulation of counterfeit products on digital platforms poses a serious challenge, endangering consumers. Although the legal framework for consumer protection in Indonesia provides a foundation for safeguarding consumer rights, oversight of counterfeit products in e-commerce has been deemed ineffective in ensuring consumer protection. This study employs normative legal research methods with comparative law, legislative, and conceptual approaches. The findings reveal that the Consumer Protection Act (UU Perlindungan Konsumen) has not been fully effective in ensuring the accountability of digital platforms, monitoring products, and resolving disputes. In comparison, EU regulations mandate the responsibility of digital platforms, the use of tracking technologies such as blockchain, regular audits, and strict sanctions for violations. The study recommends strengthening platform accountability in seller verification, adopting technology for product monitoring, and developing an integrated online dispute resolution mechanism through the Consumer Dispute Settlement Body (BPSK). Referring to progressive legal theory, Indonesia's regulatory framework must adaptively evolve to address digital dynamics, create legal certainty, and build public trust in a secure and equitable e-commerce ecosystem. [Fenomena e-commerce di Indonesia telah menunjukkan pertumbuhan pesat dengan nilai transaksi yang tinggi pada tahun 2024. Namun, peredaran produk palsu di platform digital menjadi tantangan serius yang membahayakan konsumen. Meskipun kerangka hukum perlindungan konsumen di Indonesia telah memberikan landasan hukum untuk melindungi hak konsumen, namun pengawasan terhadap produk palsu di e-commerce dinilai belum efektif dalam melindungi kosnumen. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perbandingan hukum, perundang-undangan, dan konseptual. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa UU Perlindungan Konsumen belum optimal dalam memastikan tanggung jawab platform digital, pengawasan produk, dan penyelesaian sengketa. Sebagai perbandingan, regulasi UE mengatur kewajiban platform digital, penggunaan teknologi pelacakan seperti blockchain, audit berkala, dan sanksi tegas bagi pelanggar. Rekomendasi penelitian mencakup penguatan tanggung jawab platform dalam verifikasi penjual, adopsi teknologi untuk pengawasan produk, dan pengembangan mekanisme penyelesaian sengketa daring yang terintegrasi dengan Badan Penyelesaian Sengketa Konsumen (BPSK). Dengan mengacu pada teori hukum progresif, regulasi di Indonesia perlu berkembang secara adaptif untuk menghadapi dinamika digital, menciptakan kepastian hukum, dan meningkatkan kepercayaan masyarakat terhadap e-commerce yang aman dan berkeadilan].

Abstract

Emergency laws are often framed as necessary tools to respond quickly during national crises, but they also present significant risks to democratic structures. This paper explores how emergency powers can be used to centralize executive authority in Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The purpose of this study is to analyze how legal frameworks enable or fail to restrict executive power during emergencies. Using a doctrinal legal research method, the paper examines constitutional texts, relevant statutes, and key political events to assess how emergency powers function in practice. Findings show that while all three countries demonstrate varying degrees of executive flexibility, Indonesia stands out due to its lack of clear legal limits and minimal oversight, while Thailand is riddled with normative inconsistencies and multiple avenues for its executive branch to weaponize the state of emergency. Vietnam, on the other hand, subordinates all branches of state power to the overarching control of the Communist Party, resulting in possible limited legal accountability and significant potential for unchecked executive action. The study emphasizes the need for stronger legal safeguards to prevent emergency powers from becoming a lasting feature of governance.

Abstract

The pharmaceutical industry as a business entity must fulfill the right to health, especially for children. However, the Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) case in Indonesian children, with 324 cases in less than a year, indicates a violation of children's right to health and life. Court findings reveal systematic and widespread gross human rights violations, making the pharmaceutical industry involved accountable. This study aims to examine the fulfillment of elements of gross human rights violations by the pharmaceutical industry in producing contaminated drugs containing hazardous and toxic substances, as well as the burden of corporate criminal liability. This research employs a normative legal research method with a statutory approach, analyzing several legal regulations. The findings indicate that corporate actions fulfill the elements of crimes against humanity under the Human Rights Court Law, making them criminally liable. However, individual criminal responsibility remains a challenge in corporate accountability. Therefore, legal reforms are needed to strengthen pharmaceutical oversight and establish more effective corporate sanctions, such as fines as the primary penalty, business license suspension or revocation, and additional sanctions like confiscation of profits from criminal acts, corporate dissolution, and banning executives from establishing new companies in the same field. Industri farmasi sebagai pelaku usaha memiliki kewajiban untuk memenuhi hak atas kesehatan, terutama bagi anak-anak. Namun, kasus Gangguan Ginjal Akut (AKI) pada anak di Indonesia dengan 324 kasus dalam waktu kurang dari setahun menunjukkan adanya pelanggaran hak kesehatan dan hak hidup anak. Fakta persidangan mengungkap adanya pelanggaran Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM) berat yang bersifat sistematis dan meluas, sehingga industri farmasi yang terlibat harus bertanggung jawab. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji pemenuhan unsur-unsur pelanggaran HAM berat oleh industri farmasi dalam memproduksi obat-obatan yang terkontaminasi bahan berbahaya dan beracun serta bagaimana beban pertanggungjawaban pidana terhadap korporasi yang terlibat. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode penelitian hukum normatif dengan jenis pendekatan penelitian perundangan-undangan yang mengkaji beberapa peraturan hukum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tindakan korporasi memenuhi unsur kejahatan terhadap kemanusiaan dalam UU Pengadilan HAM sehingga dapat dimintai pertanggungjawaban pidana. Namun, masih terdapat hambatan dalam menegakkan hukum terhadap korporasi. Namun, prinsip pertanggungjawaban pidana individu menjadi hambatan dalam menegakkan hukum terhadap korporasi. Oleh karena itu, diperlukannya  pembaharuan hukum untuk memperkuat pengawasan farmasi serta menetapkan pidana korporasi yang lebih efektif, seperti pidana denda sebagai pidana utama, pembekuan atau pencabutan izin usaha, serta sanksi tambahan seperti perampasan keuntungan yang diperoleh dari tindak pidana, pembubaran korporasi, dan larangan bagi pengurus korporasi untuk mendirikan perusahaan baru di bidang yang sama.

Abstract

Dalam konteks Terorisme di Indonesia, pandangan terhadap terorisme memiliki nuansa yang berbeda dari mayoritas pandangan global. Radikalisme dan terorisme adalah dua hal yang berbeda karena radikalisme adalah suatu paham atau aliran sementara terorisme adalah suatu tindakan namun dua hal ini berkaitan satu sama lain karena ada satu persamaan diantara keduanya dengan tindakan menggunakan kekerasan. Penelitian ini berjenis empiris sama dengan studi lapangan (field research). Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui studi kepustakaan yaitu dengan melakukan kajian dokumen, peraturan perundang-undangan, terkait, jurnal, hasil penelitian artikel serta mempelajari bahan-bahan tertulis dari data BNPT RI dan artikel terdahulu menggunakan jenis data sekunder sedangkan pengumpulan data diperoleh dari, wawancara dan pengamatan langsung di lapangan menggunakan jenis data primer. Sumber data sekunder dan primer diperoleh dari beberapa pihak termasuk data yang dimiliki oleh BNPT RI. Hasil penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa peranan, tanggung jawab, dan kewenangan BNPT RI dalam mengatasi aksi radikal terorisme, selaras dengan UU No. 5 Tahun 2018, mencakup: a. Membentuk regulasi, strategi, dan program nasional di sektor pencegahan terorisme; b. Mengoordinasikan badan pemerintahan berkenaan dengan tata laksana dan eksekusi regulasi pencegahan terorisme; c. Mengimplementasikan regulasi tersebut melalui satuan tugas yang mencakup elemen-elemen instansi pemerintahan terkait, sejalan dengan peran, fungsi, dan wewenang masing-masing. BNPT RI sebagai leading sector. Dengan program-program dari BNPT RI, maka akan mempersempit ruang gerak kelompok radikal terorisme. Adapun implementasi peran BNPT RI dalam penanggulangan radikal terorisme, yaitu 1) Program Sinergisitas dalam Mencegah Terorisme, 2) Mewujudkan Sinergi untuk Indonesia Harmoni, dan 3) Strategi Membangun Perdamaian Global dalam Penanggulangan Terorisme.

Abstract

Parking is an activity regulated by the government as a source of local revenue to support infrastructure development. The management of parking revenue in Batam City refers to Law Number 28 of 2009 on Local Taxes and Levies and Local Regulation of Batam City Number 1 of 2024. The problem of this research is the effectiveness of the government's role in managing parking revenue in Batam City, especially in the aspects of facilities, community participation, and culture of legal compliance. This research aims to analyze the role of government in managing parking revenue in Batam City. The method used is empirical juridical research involving in-depth interviews with the Local Revenue Agency, Transportation Agency, as well as parking attendants in Batam City with statutory approach, conceptual approach and sociological approach. The results show that the government has a strategic role in ensuring that parking revenue is optimally distributed, both for the welfare of parking attendants and the development of city infrastructure. In addition to effective regulations, the main challenges in optimizing the parking system in Batam City lie in improving facilities, public participation, and strengthening the culture of compliance with parking regulations. Therefore, synergy between government policies, especially related to technology and public education, is needed to create a parking system that is more transparent, efficient, and contributes maximally to local revenue.
