Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the urgency for a judicial review of the constitutionality of Indonesia's constitutional amendments. In addition, it explores, using Germany, Colombia, and India as comparative materials, the practice of judicial review regarding the constitutionality of constitutional amendments. The main writing approach used in this article, which examined the constitutional texts of Germany, Indonesia, Colombia, India, and Germany, was a comparative one. Similar provisions that are unchangeable explicitly or implicitly may be found in the constitutions of Colombia, Germany, India, and Indonesia. However, there are fundamental differences in efforts to protect, maintain and preserve these unchangeable provisions (as the fundamental structure and identity of the Constitution) in reviewing the constitutionality of constitutional amendments. This mechanism is practiced in India, Germany and Colombia but not in Indonesia. However, if studied carefully, 3 aspects show the urgency of implementing this mechanism in Indonesia: 1) historical aspects (the existence of past events regarding constitutional changes or transitions that are normatively unconstitutional; 2) philosophical and juridical aspects (the existence of Pancasila as state ideology as well as constitutional identity and the existence of Article 37 paragraph (5) which clearly states that the Form of the Republic of Indonesia cannot be changed); and 3) sociological aspects (the issue of constitutional amendments which seems to be patterned at the end of each president's term of office to extend the period of the president's term of office to three terms). These three aspects are the primary consideration and basis for implementing a mechanism for reviewing the constitutionality of constitutional amendments so that the fundamental structure and identity of the Indonesian Constitution are not damaged or eliminated by parliament through constitutional amendment activities.

Abstract

The investigation system in Indonesian criminal procedure law is still dominated by a single authority approach that places the police as the primary actor. This model is increasingly questioned with the increasing complexity of modern crimes, the development of sectoral investigative institutions, and the emergence of Constitutional Court decisions rejecting the monopoly of investigative authority. This fragmentation of authority without a clear coordination design has the potential to give rise to institutional conflict and human rights violations. This study aims to formulate an ideal concept for implementing multiparty investigations in the Indonesian legal system that aligns with the principles of the rule of law, due process of law, and the protection of human rights. This study uses normative legal methods with statutory, conceptual, case-based, and comparative approaches. Data were obtained through a literature review of primary legal materials in the form of laws and court decisions, as well as secondary legal materials in the form of scientific journals, law books, and comparative studies of investigative systems in South Korea and the Netherlands. The results show that the practice of multiparty investigations in Indonesia has developed sectorally through the authority of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), the National Narcotics Agency (BNN), and the Civil Servant Supervisory Agency (PPNS), but has not been integrated into a comprehensive criminal procedure law framework. Weak coordination, unclear boundaries of authority, and minimal judicial oversight increase the risk of inter-institutional conflict and violations of suspects' rights. Multiparty investigations require an integrated institutional design, a clear division of authority, horizontal coordination mechanisms, and strengthened judicial oversight to create a fair and effective criminal justice system.

Abstract

Land in the context of human life is not merely a physical space, but also a social, economic, cultural, and political symbol that holds strategic functions for the sustainability of life. In the perspective of Indonesian agrarian law, land is positioned as a means to realize social justice as affirmed in Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution and the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA). However, reality demonstrates that many lands are left uncultivated, giving rise to the phenomenon of abandoned land. This condition reflects a major paradox: on one hand, land is a fundamental and limited necessity, while on the other hand, land is often not utilized in accordance with its function. This research examines the conceptuality of abandoned land using a qualitative empirical approach, involving regional governments, the National Land Agency, village officials, and land certificate holders as informants. Research findings demonstrate that land abandonment is influenced by economic factors, ineffective policies, ownership disputes, and urbanization. In legal terms, abandoned land is considered a violation of the social function of land, whereby the state has the right to revoke land rights and return the land for public interest through a land administration mechanism. In conclusion, abandoned land is not merely an issue of land administration, but also a matter of social justice, economic sustainability, and environmental conservation. Proper handling through regulation, legal socialization, and community empowerment becomes the key to restoring land to its true function as a source of life and collective welfare.

Abstract

Indonesia sebagai negara hukum memiliki kewajiban konstitusional untuk melindungi segenap bangsa dan seluruh tumpah darah Indonesia, termasuk dalam situasi bencana alam. Namun, dalam praktik penanggulangan bencana, muncul dilema antara nilai kemanusiaan yang bersifat universal dan prinsip kedaulatan negara, khususnya terkait kebijakan penolakan atau pembatasan bantuan asing. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis relasi antara kemanusiaan dan kedaulatan dalam negara hukum Indonesia melalui kajian kebijakan penolakan bantuan asing pada penanggulangan bencana banjir bandang di wilayah Sumatera yang melibatkan tiga provinsi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan pendekatan kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan penolakan bantuan asing didasarkan pada prinsip kedaulatan negara dan pengendalian terhadap potensi intervensi eksternal, namun kebijakan tersebut harus tetap mempertimbangkan nilai kemanusiaan sebagaimana diamanatkan dalam Pancasila dan Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan keseimbangan antara kedaulatan negara dan kepentingan kemanusiaan agar penanggulangan bencana dapat berjalan efektif tanpa mengabaikan prinsip negara hukum.
