Abstract

This study aims to reassess the Indonesian presidential electoral system within the context of postcolonial liberal democracy and to propose an alternative democratic framework rooted in the values of siyasah syar'iyyah (Islamic political governance) as part of the decolonization of Islamic politics. The main issues addressed include presidential conflicts of interest during election campaigns, weak electoral oversight institutions, and regulatory ambiguities that allow ethical distortions in democratic practices. The research adopts a normative-juridical approach combined with a conceptual analysis of siyasah shar'iyyah. Data were collected through the examination of electoral laws, academic literature, and classical Islamic political thought such as Al-Ahkam al-Sultaniyyah, Siyasah Syar'iyyah, and Al-Muwafaqat. A qualitative juridical analysis was employed to evaluate the alignment between positive legal norms and the principles of Islamic governance. The findings reveal a fundamental misalignment between Indonesia's electoral practices and the core Islamic political values of justice ('adl), integrity (amanah), and public welfare (maslahah). The phenomenon of presidential intervention in campaigns (cawe-cawe) signifies an ethical leadership crisis, legitimized by vague regulations and weak institutional checks. The study recommends the reconfiguration of Articles 281, 282, and 299 of Law No. 7/2017 as a normative measure to enforce political neutrality and prevent abuse of power. Theoretically, this research contributes to the discourse on decolonization in Islamic political studies and constitutional law. The siyasah syar'iyyah framework provides a more substantive and contextually grounded ethical paradigm than liberal democratic proceduralism and offers a pathway for integrating Islamic values into modern Indonesian political systems.

Abstract

There is an urgent need for a legal policy of green investment law to reduce gas emissions in Indonesia based on the perspective of the green constitution and Fiqh Bi'ah in the contemporary era. This urgency is parallel to the development of the global response to sustainable economic transformation to achieve net zero emissions by 2060. However, the green investment policy design has to hold a strategic position in Indonesia's positive law because it always remains partial. In other words, such a policy requires comprehensive examination based on the Green Constitution and Fiqh Bi'ah in constructing future national, legal, and political designs relevant to the net zero emission paradigm. This study employs a normative legal research method with philosophical, conceptual, historical, comparative, and statutory approaches. Primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources were analysed using a qualitative juridical method. The findings indicate that the 1945 Constitution has constitutionally accommodated the principles of the Green Constitution, which align with Fiqh Bi’ah regarding sustainable environmental management as mandated by the Quran. This legal construction can be a strategic foundation for green investment policies based on net zero emissions to address climate change. The alignment between the Green Constitution and Fiqh Bi’ah strengthens green investment policies as a concrete step toward preserving the earth for the sustainability of future generations. Thus, integrating these two perspectives becomes a primary element in building a sustainable civilisation oriented towards environmental preservation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the efforts of the Surabaya City Government in addressing domestic violence resulting from online gambling, using the perspectives of legal system theory and mashlahah. The focus of the research is on the role of the Surabaya City Office of Women’s Empowerment, Child Protection, Population Control, and Family Planning (DP3AP2KB) as the implementing agency for women and child protection policies. This study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing field studies and in-depth interviews with key informants from the agency, victims of domestic violence, and community leaders. The findings indicate that structurally, DP3AP2KB has undertaken several initiatives through socialization, education, and the provision of legal and psychological assistance for victims. However, the effectiveness of these policies is hindered by the community’s weak legal culture and limited public participation in prevention efforts. From the perspective of Lawrence M. Friedman’s legal system theory, the imbalance between structure, substance, and legal culture remains a major obstacle. Meanwhile, from a mashlahah perspective, the protection of victims and the prevention of domestic violence caused by online gambling are considered essential to preserving the well-being of families and society. Therefore, institutional synergy and the strengthening of legal literacy grounded in religious and social values are necessary to build an effective and sustainable protection system.
