Abstract

As new conflicts emerge, transitional justice practitioners are finding it increasingly imperative to incorporate the concepts of asset recovery into transitional justice processes and mechanisms. However, for its success, the pillar of transitional justice relating to international asset recovery needs strengthening. Yet a granular understanding of this dimension remains a critical blind spot in the transitional justice and human rights conversation. This paper brings the dynamics of asset recovery as an emerging aspect of human rights law to the fore. In terms of methodology this paper relies on Sharp’s critically motivated problem-solving theory. The paper suggests that for transitional justice to be holistic it should include asset recovery in its accountability mechanisms. Hopefully, it humbly contributes a new angle toward the understanding of what transitional justice can and could become.

Abstract

Early marriage is a contributing factor to low levels of health, education, and family welfare. Early marriage is a worldwide occurrence that warrants the attention of all stakeholders, including UNICEF. The objective of this study is to address the issue of early marriage in Indonesia by employing the quadruple helix approach and doing legal and economic analysis to effectively reduce the prevalence of early marriages. The author employed a type of normative juridical study that incorporated both national law and the Islamic legal method approach known as maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. This was done by utilizing the quadruple helix and economic analysis of law (EAL) theory. Ultimately, early marriage is influenced by ineffective regulations as well as cultural, economic, and educational factors. To address this issue, it is crucial to establish a strong collaboration between academics, businesses, government, and society. Additionally, raising awareness among the public about the benefits of delaying marriage until the appropriate age can contribute to the well-being of couples, families, and society as a whole. This approach can also incentivize the community by facilitating access to education, the economy, and healthcare and addressing issues such as stunting.

Abstract

Introduction to the Problem: The implementation of digital zakat has become a popular trend for zakat practices in Indonesia, allowing the muzakki to make their payments swiftly and easily online. However, there are several challenges faced in the adoption of digital zakat in Indonesia, including concerns on the security of personal data and financial transactions. The potentials for hacking or misuse of muzakki's personal data may hinder the development of digital zakat.Purpose/Study Objective: This paper examines the legal protection of the personal data of zakat payers who use digital platforms as the means for distributing their zakat.Design/Methodology/Approach: The method used in this study is qualitative through normative legal research. The data obtained is analyzed with conceptual approach to formulate specific regulations governing digital zakat platform in detail.Findings: The existence of digital zakat is considered a technological innovation that has increased the accessibility of zakat for the people, thereby improving the welfare of those underprivileged. However, confusion and uncertainty regarding the rules and procedures of digital zakat remain in Indonesia. Digitising zakat brings along its own risks and challenges, including the potential for the misuse of funds, data security issues, and the lack of monitoring and accountability. To ensure the appropriate use of zakat funds in accordance with Islamic law and the relevant regulations, both the zakat institutions and the government must strengthen their supervisory and control over the collection and distribution of zakat through digital platforms. Additionally, it is important to note that not all levels of society in Indonesia have access to digital technology. A significant portion of the population, particularly those in remote areas, may not be able to fully participate in digital zakat practices due to lack of internet access or other necessary equipment.Paper Type: Research Article

Abstract

In Zimbabwe, civil society organisations (CSOs) have played a significant role in documenting cases of corruption and mismanagement that have deprived Zimbabweans of their basic human rights. This work can facilitate asset recovery efforts, which is a high priority for the Government of Zimbabwe. The country continues to face enormous challenges despite the political changes that have occurred in recent years. This makes the contribution of civil society all the more important. In particular, CSOs can play a role in raising public awareness, research, advocacy, case management and monitoring returned assets. Hence, CSOs should not only be encouraged but also equipped to work with government and state institutions: providing information, increasing accountability and building political will. The government and third sector can achieve far more working cooperatively than either could alone. To that end, Transparency International Zimbabwe seeks to provide CSOs with a platform to effectively engage with and support the recovery of stolen assets within and beyond Zimbabwe’s borders. This paper will encourage CSOs to explore opportunities to effectively engage in the asset recovery process, including in partnership with other actors, so that they can work towards returning the assets to Zimbabweans in desperate need. As the first of its kind, this paper is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides an introductory overview to CSOs’ engagement with asset recovery and identifies their specific strengths. It also analyses CSOs’ asset recovery networks, which will allow Transparency International Zimbabwe to understand who is already working with whom so that it can build on this knowledge for future collaborations. In terms of scope, this paper discusses asset recovery in the context of corruption-related offences, with an emphasis on cases involving senior public officials.
