Abstract

Handling corruption in Indonesia is a crucial issue that affects the integrity and effectiveness of law enforcement. Based on Law No. 31 of 1999 amended by Law No. 20 of 2001, corruption includes various acts that harm state finances, such as abuse of authority and bribery. Data from Transparency International shows that corruption remains a serious problem with Indonesia's Corruption Perception Index in 2023 scoring 34 out of 100. This research aims to provide academic insights and practical policy recommendations to improve the effectiveness of law enforcement and corruption eradication in Indonesia. The main focus of this research is on institutional reform, improving supervision, and strengthening accountability to strengthen the integrity of the criminal justice system and increase public trust in law enforcement institutions. This research uses a normative juridical methodological approach by utilizing various analytical techniques, including comparative, conceptual, and statutory approaches. This research shows that structural and procedural weaknesses in handling corruption in Indonesia, such as unclear legal definitions and weak institutional coordination, hinder the effectiveness of corruption eradication. Legal reforms, structural improvements, and strengthened oversight are needed to improve the justice system, build public trust, and support equitable social and economic development.

Abstract

Setiap individu harus dijamin haknya, karena itu HAM tidak dapat dicabut oleh siapapun termasuk dirinya sendiri. Istilah HAM berarti hak tersebut ditentukan dalam hakikat kemanusiaan dan demi kemanusiaan. Jaminan HAM dalam UUD 1945 pasca amandemen merupakan pencapaian progresif yang patut disyukuri. Bagaimana mewujudkan jaminan HAM dalam kehidupan nyata adalah merupakan tantangan besar yang harus kita jawab dan lakukan. Jangan sampai jaminan HAM yang tercantum dalam konstitusi itu hanya bersifat normatif belaka yang bertolak belakang dengan prakteknya. Dalam system peradilan pidana saat ini masih banyak yang terabaikan HAM baik pelaku maupun korban. Dalam hal ini Secara konseptual, Restorative Justice berisi gagasan-gagasan dan prinsip-prinsip seperti membangun partisipasi bersama antara pelaku, korban, dan kelompok masyarakat menyelesaikan suatu peristiwa atau tindak pidana.

Abstract

The post-truth era creates uncertainty in the search for absolute truth, where objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than emotions and personal beliefs. This phenomenon has a negative impact on the democratic process, public perception of democratic institutions, and legal justice. The challenge of distinguishing facts from fabricated opinions affects law enforcement and the integrity of the democratic process. The research method used in this article is normative legal research that examines law as norms or rules that apply in society, focusing on document analysis and the use of legal sources. This research aims to find legal norms that are relevant in answering certain legal challenges or problems, as well as to produce arguments and theories as guidelines in resolving legal cases using secondary data (library research or document studies). In the post-truth era, law remains an important foundation in maintaining justice and order. Although challenges to political correctness can shake public confidence, the roots of law remain strong. The post-truth phenomenon is an irrational phenomenon, while legal truth (ontologically, epistemologically, and axiologically) is related to rational things, so it is quite difficult to debate and bring these two things together. Therefore, it is important to position the two different things in a position where we can find the most basic thing, both philosophically and legally.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Digital transformation has increased children’s and adolescents’ access to various online services, but it has also increased the risk of exposure to sexual content, digital exploitation, and risky cyber behavior. In Sukasirna Village, Rancakalong District, Sumedang Regency, low levels of parental digital literacy and the dominance of repressive supervision practices have resulted in suboptimal protection of children as digital consumers. This condition has the potential to increase the risk of risky sexual behavior associated with child marriage and the threat of stunting. This Community Service Program aimed to improve the community’s legal capacity and practical skills in protecting children through the integration of consumer protection law education and parental control training based on two-way communication. The method used was Participatory Community Empowerment, involving parents and adolescents through legal education, technical workshops on digital supervision, and family communication simulations. The results showed an improvement in parents’ understanding of children’s rights as digital consumers based on Article 4 of the Consumer Protection Law, an improvement in their ability to operate parental control features, and a 76% level of readiness to implement two-way communication in digital supervision. This approach not only improved the community’s legal and digital literacy but also strengthened the family as a micro-level preventive legal instrument for preventing exposure to cybersexual content, risky sexual behavior, child marriage, and factors contributing to stunting. This community service model is suitable for replication as a community empowerment strategy to create a safe, healthy, and child-friendly digital ecosystem. ABSTRAK Transformasi digital telah meningkatkan akses anak dan remaja terhadap berbagai layanan daring, namun juga memperbesar risiko paparan konten seksual, eksploitasi digital, dan perilaku siber berisiko. Di Desa Sukasirna, Kecamatan Rancakalong, Kabupaten Sumedang, rendahnya literasi digital orang tua serta dominannya pola pengawasan yang bersifat represif menyebabkan perlindungan anak sebagai konsumen digital belum berjalan secara optimal. Kondisi tersebut berpotensi meningkatkan risiko perilaku seksual berisiko yang berkaitan dengan perkawinan usia anak dan ancaman stunting. Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan kapasitas hukum dan keterampilan praktis masyarakat dalam melindungi anak melalui integrasi edukasi hukum perlindungan konsumen dengan pelatihan parental control berbasis komunikasi dua arah. Metode yang digunakan adalah Participatory Community Empowerment yang melibatkan orang tua dan remaja melalui sosialisasi hukum dan lokakarya teknis pengawasan digital serta simulasi komunikasi keluarga. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman orang tua mengenai hak anak sebagai konsumen digital berdasarkan Pasal 4 Undang-Undang Perlindungan Konsumen, kemampuan mengoperasikan fitur parental control meningkat, serta kesiapan menerapkan komunikasi dua arah dalam pengawasan digital mencapai 76%. Pendekatan ini tidak hanya meningkatkan literasi hukum dan literasi digital masyarakat, tetapi juga memperkuat keluarga sebagai instrumen hukum preventif mikro dalam mencegah paparan siber seksual, perilaku seksual berisiko, perkawinan usia anak, dan faktor-faktor yang berkontribusi terhadap stunting. Model pengabdian ini layak direplikasi sebagai strategi pemberdayaan masyarakat dalam mewujudkan ekosistem digital yang aman, sehat, dan ramah anak.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Indonesia is entering a new era of decolonization of its criminal justice system, shifting toward a restorative and rehabilitative paradigm, with the enactment of Law No. 1 of 2023 (the New Criminal Code) and Law No. 20 of 2025 (the New Criminal Procedure Code) on January 2, 2026. However, the legislative process which has been criticized as rushed has created a gap between the ideal of the law (das Sollen) and on-the-ground reality (das Sein), particularly regarding the potential erosion of civil rights due to the expansion of law enforcement agencies’ authority to use coercive measures without strict judicial oversight. This gap is exacerbated by a lack of public understanding, which risks triggering premature criminalization. This community service program aims to enhance the public’s capacity for self-defense through legal education via a National Webinar-based Participatory Legal Education initiative. Using interactive and dialogic methods, this initiative involves legal practitioners, academics, and the general public to analyze the legal implications and mitigate the risks associated with the legal transition. Based on Soerjono Soekanto’s theoretical framework of legal awareness, evaluation results show a significant increase across all dimensions of participants’ legal awareness, with the highest surge occurring in the indicators of legal behavior and legal understanding. Comparative analysis indicates that participatory outreach methods are effective in transforming normative knowledge into tactical actions, such as readiness to utilize pretrial mechanisms and the right to legal representation. As reflected in the supporting documents, this initiative has proven to be crucial as a social and legal mitigation tool in addressing the structural challenges of the transition period. The program recommends continuing legal literacy efforts at the grassroots level and fostering cross-sectoral collaboration to ensure accountability in democratic law enforcement. ABSTRAK Indonesia tengah memasuki era baru dekolonisasi sistem hukum pidana Indonesia menuju paradigma restoratif dan rehabilitatif, dengan pemberlakuan UU No. 1 Tahun 2023 (KUHP Baru) dan UU No. 20 Tahun 2025 (KUHAP Baru) pada 2 Januari 2026. Namun, proses legislasi yang dinilai tergesa-gesa memicu kesenjangan antara cita hukum (das Sollen) dengan realitas lapangan (das Sein), khususnya terkait potensi pelemahan hak sipil akibat perluasan wewenang upaya paksa aparat tanpa pengawasan yudisial yang ketat. Kesenjangan ini diperparah oleh minimnya pemahaman masyarakat, yang berisiko memicu kriminalisasi prematur. Program pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan kapasitas pertahanan hukum mandiri masyarakat melalui inovasi Penyuluhan Hukum Partisipatif berbasis Webinar Nasional. Menggunakan metode interaktif-dialogis, kegiatan ini melibatkan praktisi hukum, akademisi, dan masyarakat umum untuk membedah implikasi yuridis dan mitigasi risiko transisi hukum. Berdasarkan kerangka teori kesadaran hukum Soerjono Soekanto, hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada seluruh dimensi kesadaran hukum peserta, dengan lonjakan tertinggi terjadi pada indikator perilaku hukum dan pemahaman hukum. Analisis komparatif menunjukkan bahwa metode penyuluhan partisipatif efektif mentransformasi pengetahuan normatif menjadi tindakan taktis, seperti kesiapan menggunakan mekanisme praperadilan dan hak pendampingan hukum. Sebagaimana tercermin dalam dokumen pendukung, inisiatif ini terbukti krusial sebagai instrumen mitigasi sosial-yuridis dalam menghadapi tantangan struktural masa transisi. Program ini merekomendasikan keberlanjutan literasi hukum di tingkat akar rumput dan sinergi lintas sektor untuk mengawal akuntabilitas penegakan hukum yang demokratis.

Abstract

Evolusi kejahatan finansial modern menunjukkan bahwa korporasi kerap disalahfungsikan sebagai sarana kejahatan dan perisai hukum oleh beneficial owner non-formal melalui struktur korporasi cangkang dan perjanjian nominee. Ketergantungan penegakan hukum pada formalitas dokumen perseroan menciptakan celah impunitas dan jarak pembuktian yang memutus relasi kausalitas antara pelaku intelektual dengan aliran dana ilegal. Kondisi tersebut diperparah oleh kompleksitas pembuktian kesalahan subjektif (mens rea) yang berakibat pada kegagalan proses pemulihan aset (asset recovery) bagi kas negara. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengonstruksikan pertanggungjawaban pidana beneficial owner non-formal dalam Tindak Pidana Pencucian Uang (TPPU) korporasi melalui doktrin alter ego, piercing the corporate veil, serta rekonseptualisasi asas strict liability. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode hukum yuridis-normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan kasus, yang dianalisis secara kualitatif melalui penalaran deduktif dan penafsiran sistematis-teleologis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pertanggungjawaban pidana beneficial owner non-formal dapat dikonstruksikan secara efektif melalui perluasan doktrin alter ego dan instrumen piercing the corporate veil untuk menembus status non-struktural pengendali bayangan. Adopsi asas strict liability secara terukur dengan tetap menjamin prinsip due process of law serta ruang pembelaan prosedur bagi entitas beritikad baik sangat mendesak untuk diterapkan guna memangkas hambatan pembuktian unsur kesalahan subjektif. Integrasi kerangka doktriner ini mampu menutup celah impunitas aktor intelektual dan mengakselerasi pengembalian aset hasil kejahatan secara optimal dalam sistem peradilan pidana ekonomi.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the potential implementation of restorative justice in the resolution of press offense disputes in Indonesia, with a focus on Law No. 40/1999 on the Press. The urgency of this research arises from the need to reduce the burden on the increasingly heavy judicial system and increase the effectiveness of media dispute resolution. In this context, restorative justice can be a more humane and efficient alternative to conventional litigation approaches. The scope of the problem includes the lack of regulations supporting restorative mechanisms in the Press Law, as well as practical challenges in implementing mediation in Indonesia. The main findings show that restorative justice can help restore social relations between the parties involved, in a more constructive way, rather than simply imposing punishment. The novelty of this research lies in identifying the potential application of restorative justice in the context of press disputes, as well as the role of the Press Council as a mediator in dispute resolution mechanisms. The method used in this research is legal analysis and comparison of legal systems in other countries, as well as a study of restorative justice theory and its application in press disputes in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the application of restorative justice (RJ) in reducing recidivism in Indonesia, focusing on its effectiveness, implementation challenges, and potential development in the adult criminal justice system. The method used was a qualitative approach with interviews with judges, prosecutors, and mediators at the Bogor District Court as well as case studies of RJ implementation. The results show that although restorative justice (RJ) offers a more rehabilitative solution compared to conventional approaches, its application in Indonesia is still limited by a lack of understanding of legal officers, social resistance, and limited resources. For example, while in New Zealand the recidivism rate of RJ participants is only 17%, in Indonesia, barriers such as lack of mediator training and limited mediation facilities reduce the effectiveness of the program. This study concludes that the implementation of restorative justice (RJ) can reduce recidivism if followed by increased resource capacity, training of legal officers, and community support. The contribution of this research to science is to provide insights into the implementation of RJ in the Indonesian context, as well as suggest measures to overcome the challenges, in order to improve a more rehabilitative criminal justice system.

Abstract

Corruption in Indonesia is a serious problem that not only results in significant financial losses, but also has the potential to destroy social, economic, and democratic stability. Corruption has become a systematic crime, causing state losses of trillions of rupiah every year. This study aims to analyze various factors that affect the increase in corruption cases and the effectiveness of legal policies in eradicating them. Using a normative juridical approach, this study examines applicable regulations, including Law Number 20 of 2001 which regulates the reversal of the burden of proof in corruption cases. This study found that the implementation of a reverse evidentiary system can speed up the legal process and help uncover the material truth. However, the main challenges in eradicating corruption are low law enforcement, a permissive culture of law violations, and incompatibility of the law with the dynamics in the field. Therefore, periodic evaluation of regulations, strengthening the integrity of law enforcement officials, and strict supervision of the state budget are necessary. It is hoped that with these steps, efforts to eradicate corruption in Indonesia can be more optimal and have a positive impact on people's welfare.
