Abstract

In accordance with the principle of the rule of law (rechtstaat), all legal actions (rechtshandelingen) and/or factual actions (feitelijke handelingen) of government officials must be based on applicable laws and regulations. However, the increasing complexity of societal life means that not all public affairs are fully regulated. Existing regulations often contain vague or open norms that provide room for interpretation, thereby requiring the exercise of administrative discretion. While discretion is necessary to ensure effective governance, its use without clear requirements, objectives, and limitations may lead to arbitrary actions that harm the public, particularly when there is limited legal space to challenge or annul such decisions. To address this issue, Law Number 30 of 2014 on Government Administration establishes provisions regarding the requirements, procedures, objectives, and review mechanisms for government discretion. Nevertheless, the regulatory framework still contains several ambiguities, resulting in practical difficulties and uncertainty for government officials in exercising discretion as well as for judges of the Administrative Court (PTUN) in reviewing disputed discretionary decisions.

Abstract

An important theme of science communication research is research on science article writers. However, not many scholars are interested in doing this research. Based on this fact, we conducted a research on the ideal position of a science article writer. It  turns out that he definition of science writer has changed in Indonesia. Quantitative content analysis of articles reported by The Conversation Indonesia during December 2021 found that the writerss motivated the public to understand and use scientific principles to meet their daily needs. The results of in-depth interviews with three prominent professors at Universitas Gadjah Mada confirm the same fact. They do not just tell the object of research in a certain context. This fact certainly needs to be imitated by other science writers. However, there is a basic recipe that must be practiced by other science writers. The practice of the recipe will make them autonomous and responsible to society. Thus, the article will explain the ways that can be taken to make it happen.

Abstract

In this paper, the authors investigate argument activities of the journalism of The Conversation Indonesia (TCID). Taking into consideration five elements of argumentation —philosophical component, theoretical component, empirical component, analytical component, and practical component—this study identifying patterns argument that characterize of 41 science articles in 2021 by using qualitative content analysis. To complete the data, we conducted in-depth interviews with the chief of editor/content director of TCID. We also conducted an extensive review of current literature. This paper finds that most of the science articles reported by TCID uses 3 component arguments, namely the philosophical component, the empirical component, and the practical component. This shows that the authors only have a degree of wanting to form knowledge at a moderate level. Other data shows not all writers present predictive arguments in themselves. Only 80% of authors present predictive arguments. We argue that science journalism practiced by TCID is not passionate about building knowledge among its readers. It has not succeeded in promoting Indonesian science journalism as a means of forming readers' knowledge. Therefore, strong efforts are needed to ensure that science journalism can ground research results that shape readers' knowledge.

Abstract

The wave of science news related to climate change at the global level has become a trending topic of online media coverage during 2022. The purpose of this study is to determine the focus in elaborating science communication through the practice of science journalism in leading online media in the United States and the United Kingdom. The focus of the coverage moved to discuss more specific issues; the phenomenon of heat waves and global carbon. This research was conducted using a quantitative content analysis method. Data was collected through documentation of online media news content throughout 2022. The object of this research is science news articles on climate change issues in the online media The New York Times and The Guardian. The conceptual basis of this research is based on the opinion of Crystle M. Bruno (2020) who classifies the article into three parts; the introduction, the body, and the conclusion. The study found that how information is delivered in online media in the UK and America shows similarities and differences. The root of the equation can be seen in the choice of long-form journalism format. Meanwhile, differences were identified in the variations in preparing the introduction, the body, and the conclusion. More importantly, the direction and development of journalism in America and Britain is moving towards the institutionalization of quality journalism.

Abstract

According to Nielsen, podcast listening in Indonesia grew to over 3.6 million, with weekly episode consumption increasing by 10%. Podcasts have become popular among younger audiences due to their on-demand nature, diverse content, and personalized experience. This study analyzes the global transformation of podcast use between 2019 and 2024 as part of the evolving media landscape in the post-broadcast age. Using a systematic literature review and descriptive-qualitative analysis on 48 articles, the findings reveal that podcasts have developed in an interdisciplinary manner, functioning not only as entertainment but also as tools for education, journalism, the representation of marginalized communities, and platform-based economic strategies. Importantly, podcasts reshape human experience by fostering intimate listening cultures, participatory communities, digital literacy practices, and new forms of socio-cultural engagement. The results highlight the significant social, cultural, and political implications of podcasts, ranging from community empowerment and digital literacy to the challenges posed by the dominance of global platforms. The study suggests the need for policies to establish a regulatory framework that supports the local podcast ecosystem.
