Abstract

This paper focuses on the the performance of Slawatan and the charismatic leadership of Habib Sheikh as a source of motivation for diverse communities in Central Java. The paper uses ritual and performance theories as the guiding framework. The data-gathering method was derived from participant observation, interviews and discussions. The study argues that the ritual performance of Slawatan follows a systematic process and the charismatic leadership of Habib Sheikh serves as a motivation for different groups. The findings show that the performance of Slawatan is a process that includes the preliminaries, dress code, verses and songs, and the ‘cool-down’ part. They reveal how people from diverse communities see Habib Sheikh as very charismatic. They believe that his leadership qualities and innovations motivate them to attend this form of Islamic ritual performance. This study is part of a growing body of research on the understanding of Islamic ritual as a peaceful event which people from different backgrounds can attend and enjoy religious songs and music, without fear of encountering aggressive teachings and practices. It also contributes to future research on comparable issues.

Abstract

Global health ethics tackles the complex ethical dilemmas associated with healthcare policies and practices at a global scale, focusing on key principles such as equity, solidarity, and beneficence. These principles are essential for fostering health and well-being, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where healthcare access remains limited. The aim of this study is to examine the ethical dimensions of global health, highlighting the interconnectedness of health outcomes and the collective responsibility of nations and communities in addressing global health inequities. The study employs a qualitative field research approach, utilizing in-depth interviews and secondary data analysis to assess the application of these ethical principles in practical settings. Data were gathered from key figures in the global health sector, including policymakers, healthcare professionals, and representatives from international organizations. The results underscore the importance of incorporating social determinants of health, such as poverty, education, and housing, into global health strategies. The research further emphasizes the crucial role of robust health systems, human rights, and social justice in achieving equitable health outcomes. Additionally, it illustrates the increasing significance of global health ethics in a 5.0 society, where sustainability, justice, and equity are central goals. The study advocates for collaborative efforts among global health stakeholders and stresses the need for a comprehensive approach to reduce health disparities and enhance the well-being of all populations.

Abstract

Prisoners’ right to vote in The Gambia continues to be a less challenged issue both in practice and in theory in state politics since it regained independence. This research assesses state on prisoners’ right to vote and how this defines the state’s governance system towards prisoners from international human rights perspective. An analysis of this issue in the state since it regained political independence reveals how casual academics and policymakers approach it. This piece, therefore, examines human rights perspective on this right and the state’s obligation to prisoners. The quest for the realization of human rights by the citizenry goes in tandem with the state’s obligation to cease to violate such rights, to ensure their protection, promotion, and respect it. It avails the difference between a right and a privilege and submits that voting is not a privilege but essentially a political right. A qualitative research approach is used by re-examinig and analyzing books, articles and other relevant national and international instruments that are relevant to this work. It finally submits that The Gambia needs to undergo a reformed process in terms of state institutions, and amendment of legal instruments including the Election Act (ius constitutum) to become a law (ius constituendum) that creates equality among the people. The Constitution is both a political and legal instrument, the rights of the prisoners should be empowered by it to address the approach used through the Election Act to limit the political right of prisoners to vote.

Abstract

The Constitutional Court of Indonesia as a state institution is a constitutional edict established in Article 24C of the 1945 Constitution of Indonesia. It is an act of commitment to good governance in all its dimensions. This research examines the role this court plays in promoting governance in Indonesia through its engagements with other state institutions. This research uses a doctrinal or normative legal research method to reflect on the function of this court. This court has a strong commitment towards checks and balances in order to guarantee constitutional order and supremacy, although the finality of this supremacy should not preclude constitutional dialogue. The political, democratic, and social life of Indonesia has become more vibrant as a result of the establishment of this court. This development in the history of the country’s constitutional law is premised on the ground that, building a constitutional democratic state in a country requires improving its legal frameworks. One of the initiatives is to create a framework that questions the constitutionality or validity of laws when they have reservations about them. The Constitutional Court mechanism does that. It is a court with sui generis jurisdiction in determining constitutional matters including most controversial issues of election petitions and presidential impeachment. Therefore, it is sufficient to posit that this court forms the bedrock of good governance and democratisation in Indonesia where acts of institutions and individuals are subject to the scrutiny of the constitution thereby, validating the longstanding cliché of “government of laws and not of men”.
