Abstract

This change in the concept of punishment is partly due to the consequences of imprisonment having greater negative effects and not proving its success in reducing crime rates. The purpose of this writing is to analyze the retributive justice paradigm in current criminal law enforcement, and to analyze the urgency of restorative justice in criminal law reform in Indonesia. The research uses a normative juridical approach and the specifications of this research use descriptive analysis methods. The results of this research are that the punishment system through imprisonment makes a prisoner isolated from society and family, so that psychologically the prisoner can experience stress and decline in mental health. The concept of restorative justice offers a recovery process that involves the perpetrator and victim or the victim's family directly in solving the problem. The application of restorative justice returns the conflict to the parties in order to emphasize human rights and the need to restore the impact of social injustice in a simple way, still providing the perpetrators with justice rather than formal (legal) justice where victims do not get justice. Restorative justice also seeks to restore security, personal respect and dignity to the victim.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of legal education in enhancing individuals' comprehension of consumer rights and to develop strategies to equip people with the tools to address unfair business practices. In this context, consumer rights encompass a range of aspects that are vital for the protection of individuals engaged in trade and consumption activities. In light of the fact that a considerable proportion of the population remains inadequately informed about their rights, particularly in the context of unfair business practices, the provision of legal education is of paramount importance. This study employs a qualitative methodology to examine individuals' experiences and perspectives on consumer rights, underscoring the significance of legal education in enhancing people's comprehension of consumer rights. Legal education ought to be pursued in a sustainable manner, with the active involvement of diverse stakeholders, including governmental bodies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and local communities. To enhance the efficacy of legal education, it is essential to utilise digital technology as a conduit for information dissemination.

Abstract

The utilisation of mediation as a mechanism for the resolution of civil law disputes in Indonesia has become increasingly significant, representing an alternative to the frequently protracted, expensive, and adversarial litigation process. Mediation, a form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), adopts a collaborative and amicable approach by facilitating dialogue between disputing parties with the assistance of a neutral third party. This study aims to examine the role and effectiveness of mediation within Indonesia's civil law framework, with a focus on its legal foundation and practical implementation. A qualitative research methodology was employed to analyse the recent scholarly literature, legal documentation and case studies, in order to draw conclusions on the impact of this process on a range of civil disputes, including those arising from family law, commercial conflicts and disputes relating to land ownership.The findings indicate that mediation has a number of significant advantages, including the expediting of dispute resolution, the reduction in legal expenses and the preservation of relationships between disputants, thereby alleviating the burden on Indonesia's overburdened judicial system. However, despite the evident benefits, the adoption of mediation in Indonesia faces considerable challenges. These challenges encompass a paucity of public awareness, inadequate mediator training and cultural perceptions that favour litigation over other solutions.

Abstract

This article examines the critical role of civil legal assistance in protecting the rights of vulnerable populations, including women, children, indigenous peoples, and persons with disabilities. Despite existing legal frameworks and recent advancements in legal aid provision, significant barriers persist that hinder access to justice for these groups. Through a qualitative analysis of recent literature and case studies from various regions, this study highlights successful models of community-based legal aid initiatives and the impact of non-governmental organizations in promoting social justice. The findings underscore the importance of increasing funding, raising public awareness, and utilizing technology to enhance access to legal resources. By addressing these challenges and implementing effective strategies, societies can ensure that all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances, have the opportunity to assert their rights and seek justice. This article aims to contribute to ongoing discussions about equitable access to legal services and the necessity of empowering marginalized communities within the broader framework of human rights.

Abstract

Restorative Justice is a concept that focuses on victim recovery and is relevant to be applied in various regulations, one of which is the regulation for religious-based education in Indonesia. This study aims to answer two legal issues, namely the orientation of the application of the concept of Restorative Justice and the ideal formulation of the application of the concept of Restorative Justice to overcome acts of sexual violence in religious-based education environments. This research is a normative legal research with a concept and statutory approach. The results of the study show that the orientation of the concept of Restorative Justice in an effort to overcome acts of sexual violence in religious-based education environments already exists, such as the orientation to provide optimal recovery for victims. Even so, the concept orientation can still be considered partial or imperfect. Therefore, in order to perfect the arrangements regarding the concept of Restorative Justice, it is necessary to formulate an ideal by prioritizing two orientations, namely orientation to explicitly regulate the concept of Restorative Justice in laws and regulations as well as arrangements regarding the involvement of various sectors which include the surrounding community, foundation leaders, student guardians, to the School Committee to minimize sexual violence in religious-based education environments in Indonesia.Keywords: Religious Based Education; Restorative Justice; Sexual Violence.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the criminal difficulties and legal ramifications of the modern era's epidemic of disinformation on social media in an effort to come up with thorough answers to these issues. The proliferation of hoaxes and other forms of misinformation has threatened Indonesia's social, political, and economic stability in recent years, thanks to the proliferation of social media and other forms of online communication. Another major problem with prosecuting hoaxers is the difficulty of law enforcement in the digital sphere, which includes factors like the anonymity of the offenders, different interpretations of rules, and the general public's lack of competence with digital technology. A descriptive-analytical technique is used in the research method of normative legal studies. In order to find problems and provide answers, this study compares applicable rules with international standards, namely the Criminal Code and the Electronic Information and Transactions Law. Laws, judicial judgments, and other primary legal documents are complemented by secondary legal items such as scholarly publications and literature. The study's findings reveal that despite the existence of laws like the Electronic Information and Transactions Law, its execution is often hindered by the international character of cyberspace and the dearth of funding for digital forensics tools. To combat these issues, the report suggests more adaptable regulation updates, societal efforts to increase digital literacy, technological advancements for law enforcement, and international collaboration. Additionally, law enforcement must strike a balance between protecting individuals' right to free speech and discouraging criminal behavior

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of mediation in resolving civil disputes and to identify various challenges faced at the District Court of Bandung. The approach used is normative-empirical juridical, combining analysis of the prevailing legal provisions particularly Supreme Court Regulation (PERMA) No. 1 of 2016 with empirical data obtained through interviews, observations, and document studies of civil cases undergoing mediation. The findings indicate that although mediation has been normatively integrated into the civil justice system, its effectiveness remains low. The main obstacles include the public's low legal awareness regarding the benefits of mediation, the limited number and competence of judge-mediators, and the lack of facilities and institutional support. Furthermore, mediation is often perceived merely as an administrative obligation rather than a substantive dispute resolution mechanism. Therefore, regulatory reform, continuous mediator training, and intensive public education are needed to make mediation a more effective, efficient, and equitable alternative for dispute resolution.
