Abstract

Land conversion is an important issue in Indonesia and Nigeria, with significant economic, social and environmental impacts. The problem-solving approach to uncovering farmers' legal culture is done through a sociolegal approach, where the law is seen not limited to the text but also its context in reality in society. With the sociolegal approach, the values, attitudes and views (NSP) of farmers towards their agricultural land, towards LP2B policies, and the behaviour of farmers in the use and utilization of their agricultural land designated as sustainable food agricultural land can be revealed and constructed appropriately and adequately. This research aims to uncover how farmers' legal culture can be better integrated in the law enforcement of food agricultural land protection, as well as find ways to harmonize formal laws with local practices in order to achieve more effective and equitable land protection, in addition to comparing factors affecting land conversion in both countries, including urbanization, infrastructure and industrial development, and government policies. The economic impacts of land conversion include economic growth and job creation, but also threaten food security and farmers' livelihoods. Social impacts include land conflicts and changes in people's lifestyles, while environmental impacts include deforestation, erosion and flooding. Proposed solutions include stronger monitoring and law enforcement, community participation, and sustainable policies and empowerment programs for farmers. In conclusion, wise policies and active participation from all parties are needed to sustainably manage land conversion in Indonesia and Nigeria.

Abstract

Nazir as the party who received the mandate to receive and manage waqf land faced several problems related to waqf land. These problems are that the waqf land has not been certified, the waqf land is in dispute, the waqf land has been lost/controlled by another party. This problem occurs because the practice of waqf land is carried out verbally on the basis of mutual trust, the waqf pledge has not been made before PPAIW, the waqf pledge deed has not been processed, the waqf land has not been registered, and the waqf land has not been utilized according to the waqf pledge. Through community service activities, Nazir's capacity was increased through literacy in land waqf law. Legal literacy includes the land waqf process and waqf land registration. The legal act of donating land must be carried out according to the Waqf Law, carried out before an authorized official and the waqf land is registered at the Land Office. The waqf pledge must be made in front of the Waqf Pledge Deed Registrar to be recorded in the Waqf Pledge Deed. The Waqf Pledge Deed is written evidence in land registration at the Land Office, as the basis for issuing a Waqf Land Certificate. Waqf Land Certificates are issued to create legal certainty and legal protection for land waqf. The regulation of land waqf in the Waqf Law and its implementing regulations further confirms waqf as an important and useful institution for efforts to realize community welfare, in line with the goals of state life.

Abstract

The implementation of simultaneous national and regional elections in Indonesia in 2019 and 2024 revealed significant constitutional, administrative, and democratic challenges. These included excessive institutional burdens, diminished voter rationality, weakened regional political discourse, and severe humanitarian impacts on election administrators. These conditions culminated in Constitutional Court Decision No. 135/PUU-XXII/2024, which mandates the separation of national and regional elections beginning in 2029. This article critically examines the constitutional direction, democratic implications, and normative risks of this decision, particularly its role as an instrument of constitutional engineering within Indonesia’s presidential system. Employing prescriptive qualitative legal research, the study utilizes doctrinal analysis, comparative constitutional review, and content analysis of legal norms, court decisions, and scholarly literature. The findings indicate that while election separation has the potential to strengthen governability, enhance regional democratic focus, and improve electoral rationality, it simultaneously poses risks of constitutional change by stealth. This could potentially undermine the five-year election principle and democratic legitimacy if not carefully regulated. This research contributes by integrating constitutional law, theories of governability and governmentality, and democratic advocacy into a cohesive analytical framework that moves beyond procedural electoral reform. The study concludes that Constitutional Court Decision No. 135/PUU-XXII/2024 should be treated as a constitutional guideline rather than a substitute for formal amendment. Accordingly, it recommends legislative harmonization of election laws, strengthened civic advocacy, enhanced political education, and cautious institutional restraint to ensure that electoral reform advances substantive democracy without eroding constitutional integrity.

Abstract

Bullying in Indonesian schools remains a serious problem because it may involve conduct related to violence, threats, humiliation, defamation, cyberbullying, and social exclusion. At the elementary school level, students often still need concrete learning media to distinguish ordinary conflict or joking from bullying behavior that may carry social and legal consequences. This study aims to design ANTIC (Anti-Bullying Cards) as a card-based educational medium for introducing bullying as conduct with potential criminal law relevance to elementary school students. This research applies a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, limited to the analysis and design stages. The needs analysis was conducted through behavioral observation, a homeroom teacher questionnaire, and literature review. The ANTIC model consists of 18 art-cartoon cards printed on 400 gsm material, covering threats, physical violence, verbal harassment, cyberbullying, rumors or defamation, and social exclusion. Each card presents visual illustrations, short explanations of social and psychological impacts, and simplified legal meanings related to Indonesian criminal law. The design was validated by three expert validators and one elementary school educator. The validation results showed that ANTIC was highly feasible, with an overall average feasibility score of 84.09%. Validators considered the media suitable for elementary school students, especially because of its visual form, age-appropriate presentation, and potential use in classroom discussion. This study concludes that ANTIC is feasible as a preliminary prototype for early criminal law literacy and preventive legal empowerment in school-based bullying prevention. Further research should test its effectiveness through classroom implementation and evaluation.
