Abstract

The problem of sexual violence against women occurs in all walks of life, while the protection of victims has not been met. The rights of victims of sexual violence as an injured party due to the actions of perpetrators receive less attention and are often neglected. Various efforts to provide justice, protection and recovery to women victims of sexual violence continue to be carried out, but obstacles and challenges make victims marginalized from justice, protection and recovery that should be obtained. The research method used is juridical normative. The results showed that the protection of women victims of sexual violence based on the National Criminal Law includes; physical protection, fulfillment of procedural rights, legal protection, medical, psychological, psychosocial rehabilitation, compensation, compensation and/or restitution seen from the perspective of Islamic law is an urgent matter and a necessity because the actions of perpetrators of sexual violence are contrary to the Constitution and the dignity of humanity which has a tremendous impact on victims.

Abstract

Women often become victims of crimes, especially sexual crimes and domestic violence, in legal proceedings, but the legal protection stipulated in laws and regulations is still considered inadequate and many women still experience discrimination and injustice. The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal protection of women victims in criminal justice proceedings in Indonesia from a socio-legal perspective in order to identify the socio-cultural-structural barriers that cause the weakness of such protection. This study uses an empirical legal research method with a sociological legal approach to analyze the application of regulations on protecting women victims in criminal proceedings, with primary data obtained from field studies and interviews which are then analyzed qualitatively. The results show that nomatively, regulations on protecting women victims are adequate, but in practice they are heavily influenced by patriarchal socio-cultural factors and negative stigma against women victims which affect the attitude of law enforcement officials, resulting in many victims experiencing discrimination and injustice. The socio-cultural-structural barriers include negative stigma and discriminatory treatment of victims, patriarchal culture that subordinates women, lack of psychosocial and legal support for victims, and limited access to justice for marginalized women victims. At the structural level there are also problems of low gender capacity of law enforcement officials, lack of NGO advocacy, and legal and judicial systems that are not yet victim-friendly.

Abstract

Adoption is a legal institution that has long-term civil implications for the identity status, family relationships, and rights of children as legal subjects. Differences in adoption regulatory approaches between countries directly impact the level of legal certainty and the quality of child rights protection. This study aims to analyze the comparative legal construction of adoption regulations in Indonesia and Thailand in ensuring legal certainty, as well as to examine the implementation of the principle of the best interests of the child as an effort to protect children's rights. This study uses a qualitative method with a normative-comparative legal approach through an analysis of related laws and regulations, doctrines with Indonesian regulatory laws, such as Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection, Government Regulation Number 54 of 2007 concerning the Implementation of Child Adoption, the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), and Articles 1598/19–1598/37 of the Thai Criminal Code. The results of the study indicate that Indonesia has built an adoption system within an administrative social protection framework that does not fully guarantee substantive legal certainty, particularly regarding the civil status and inheritance rights of adopted children. In contrast, Thailand has developed a legal assimilation-based adoption model that fully integrates adopted children into the family legal structure, thus providing more comprehensive and long-term legal certainty and protection of children's rights. The application of the child's best interests principle in Thailand has been institutionalized as a substantive legal standard, while in Indonesia it remains declarative-administrative. This study recommends the need for reformulation of legal policies on child adoption in Indonesia to strengthen substantive protection and ensure long-term legal certainty for adopted children.

Abstract

Interfaith marriage is a social phenomenon that continues to grow in multicultural societies, but still raises legal debates regarding legal certainty and freedom of religion. This article aims to analyze the implementation of legal norms regarding interfaith marriage in social and institutional practices in Indonesia and Thailand, as well as to assess the extent to which legal regulations in both countries reflect a balance between legal certainty and freedom of religion. This study uses a normative legal research method with a regulatory, conceptual, and comparative approach. Data was obtained through a literature study of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, which were then analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study show that in Indonesia, interfaith marriages face significant legal obstacles because the marriage law system still uses religion as the basis for the validity of marriage, as stipulated in Law Number 1 of 1974. This condition creates legal uncertainty and encourages couples to pursue alternative strategies, such as applying for a court ruling or getting married abroad. In contrast, Thailand implements a more secular and administrative marriage law system, where the validity of marriage is determined through civil registration without requiring religious similarity, although in Muslim communities the role of the Islamic Religious Council remains influential socially and religiously. This study concludes that the regulation of interfaith marriage in Thailand is relatively more capable of balancing legal certainty and religious freedom compared to Indonesia. Therefore, it is necessary to reformulate marriage law policies in Indonesia to be more adaptive and inclusive in order to respond to the social reality of a pluralistic society without neglecting constitutional and social values.
