Abstract

In the context of toxic business competition, this research investigates the legal protection of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia, particularly in partnerships with large corporations. The primary emphasis is on the implementation of Law Number 5 of 1999, which prohibits monopolistic practices and unfair business competition, and Law Number 20 of 2008, which pertains to small and medium-sized enterprises. Data was collected from literature studies, pertinent regulations, and in-depth interviews with relevant stakeholders using a qualitative approach and a case study design. The research results show that although the legal framework already exists, effective implementation still requires improvement. MSMEs face various challenges in partnerships with large companies, including access to resources and greater risks in business transactions. Recommendations are prepared to strengthen legal protection through regulatory revisions, strengthening legal institutions, legal education, developing partnerships, and stricter law enforcement. The main aim is to increase fairness in business relations between MSMEs and large companies, as well as support inclusive and sustainable economic growth in Indonesia. It is hoped that the implications of this research can provide a positive contribution in renewing policies that support the development of MSMEs as the backbone of the national economy.

Abstract

Regional developments in global competition have demanded efforts to increase competitiveness through avoiding the occurrence of a high cost economy that has been complained about so far, due to the slow government bureaucracy which always demands greater costs than the service bureaucracy itself, for example through licensing facilities, to create efficiency for optimal resource utilization, in the context of building the birth of a perfect market mechanism. Market failure can be avoided by formulating licensing norms. Increasing regional competitiveness and absorption of regional income in the investment sector through the implementation of the Online Single Submission Risk Based Approach (OSS RBA) System Policy for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), for this reason, every business activity has a direct impact on modifying the policy format model, including institutional structure, and related to business service platforms, for the Central and Regional Governments. At the level of local policies, this is not an easy problem, in an effort to accommodate these interests, in the era of global competition. The effectiveness of the implementation of the RBA OSS System Policy by Regional Governments, as well as how to overcome obstacles to the policy are very interesting to analyze, regarding MSME Actors who experience limited conditions, in terms of capital, mastery of technology and market share. The method used to analyze is doctrinal (normative juridical), on the approach of the concept of law as written law in the form of statutory texts, which are built by local government regulations. The research findings state that the Regional Government, that Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises still need assistance to register permits, in terms of the RBA OSS System Policy in the mission of optimizing the policy, massive socialization must be carried out to the community, especially MSME actors, to increase information on the importance of this policy. In the end, the business actors in question no longer make mistakes in relation to determining the choice of categorization of Micro Small and Non-Small Micro Enterprises. This policy model is directly very influential in efforts to improve the efficiency of public services, and avoid the high cost economy that occurs.

Abstract

This study examines the position of paralegals in the provision of legal aid in Indonesia, especially in the context of changes regulated by Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid. Prior to this regulation, paralegals were not allowed to handle litigation or non-litigation cases. However, after the regulation is implemented, paralegals are permitted to provide non-litigation legal assistance. The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal position of paralegals in providing legal aid and the factors that influence them in carrying out this role. This research uses a normative juridical method with a descriptive approach based on laws and legal documents. The results of the study show that although the regulation has given authority to paralegals, there still needs to be resistance from various related parties. The main factors that affect this are the need for recognition of paralegals, the limitation of human resources, and the lack of budget and cooperation between legal stakeholders. This study concludes that further clarification is needed regarding the role of paralegals in creating equitable legal justice.

Abstract

Online gender-based violence is a serious problem that negatively impacts victims physically, psychologically and socially. This research aims to analyze the legal protection of victims of cyber-based violence in Indonesia, focusing on existing regulations and their implementation. The method used in this research is a normative research method with a juridical-analytical approach, where data is collected through a literature study of relevant laws and regulations, legal documents, and previous research related to online gender-based violence. The results show that Law No. 12 of 2022 on the Crime of Sexual Violence provides a strong legal basis for victim protection, including the right to assistance, temporary protection, and recovery. In addition, regulations regarding the removal of content involving victims are an important step in reducing further impact. However, this research also found challenges in law enforcement, public awareness, and training of law enforcement officers that need to be strengthened in order for victim protection to be implemented effectively. This research is expected to contribute to improving the understanding and effectiveness of legal protection for victims of online gender-based violence in Indonesia.

Abstract

The development of information and communication technology has changed the way humans interact. Social media, as one of these technological products, has become an inseparable part of everyday life. In Indonesia, social media use has increased significantly, especially among the younger generation. This research aims to identify the positive and negative impacts of social media on social interaction in Indonesian society. This study used qualitative research methods. The data collection technique in this research is a literature study. The data that has been collected is then analyzed in three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results show that social media brings significant changes in social interactions and self-identity, including enriching social experiences, developing self-identity, simplifying the communication process, helping to build new communities, assisting individuals in expressing themselves, and increasing social awareness. However, this positive impact is also balanced by negative impacts, such as excessive use of social media leading to dependence and addiction, cyber bullying, privacy theft, social comparison, fake news, and the use of fake identities. The findings of this study have significant implications for policymakers, educators, and social media platform developers. Understanding the dual impact of social media on society can inform the creation of policies and educational programs that promote responsible social media use while mitigating its negative effects.

Abstract

This study attempts to examine criminal policies related to the drug problem in Indonesia, especially among adolescents. The author employs a qualitative research method and a juridical-normative approach by studying information from library sources through legal documents, covering both Class I and Class II substances. This study applies a descriptive-analytical approach, in which the descriptive method is used in the initial stage to present argumentation, while the analytical method is used to determine the extent of the gap between legal values and norms in theory and in legal practice. Accordingly, this research is classified as normative research. The study shows that criminal policy measures in Cirebon City have a fairly sound legal basis, grounded in Law Number 35 of 2009, Law Number 11 of 2012, and Cirebon City Regional Regulation Number 11 of 2023. Policy steps are described in terms of those that regulate criminal acts, as well as those that address non-criminal approaches, integrated in the form of rehabilitation, diversion, restorative justice, and prevention programs in families, schools, and communities. However, these measures must be improved, particularly in terms of consistency in the operationalization of field assessments concerning the best interests of adolescent development and rehabilitation.

Abstract

The rapid growth of e-commerce has transformed trading systems, offering convenience, broader product access, and cost efficiency. However, it also presents legal challenges, particularly regarding consumer protection and the accountability of business actors for defective or non-conforming products. Frequent complaints indicate systemic issues in product quality and information transparency, highlighting the need for effective legal frameworks to ensure fairness and trust in digital transactions. This study aims to analyze legal protection for consumers and business actors in Indonesian e-commerce, focusing on rights, obligations, and the enforcement of liability in multilateral digital transactions. Normative legal research was employed, using legislative and conceptual approaches to examine primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources, including the Consumer Protection Law, the Civil Code, the Electronic Information and Transactions Law, and Government Regulation No. 80 of 2019. The results indicate that consumers are safeguarded through rights to accurate product information, product safety, and compensation for losses, while business actors are provided with legal certainty and protection from bad-faith claims. The discussion highlights the balance between preventive and repressive protections and the enforcement of strict liability for non-conforming products. In conclusion, the existing legal frameworks effectively establish fairness, accountability, and trust in e-commerce. Future research could investigate implementation challenges across platforms and the impact of emerging technologies on legal compliance and consumer protection.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of restorative justice in minor assault cases at the Cirebon Police Department, Indonesia, within the broader context of a global shift in criminal justice from retributive punishment toward reconciliation and social repair. Minor assaults are prevalent, yet conventional punitive approaches often fail to address the social and relational harm caused by such offenses. Restorative justice offers an alternative by emphasizing victim recovery, offender accountability, and community cohesion. The study aims to analyze how restorative justice is applied in practice, identify supporting and inhibiting factors, and evaluate its effectiveness in resolving minor assault cases. The research employs an empirical legal approach with a qualitative, socio-legal methodology. Primary data were obtained through in-depth interviews and direct observations of police practices, while secondary data included legal regulations, internal policies, and previous studies on restorative justice. Findings reveal that police discretion plays a critical role in determining case suitability, initiating mediation, and facilitating dialogue between victims and perpetrators. Successful implementation depends on victim willingness, offender accountability, and case severity, whereas inconsistencies arise from the absence of technical guidelines and the prevalence of punitive mindsets. The study concludes that restorative justice effectively resolves minor assaults by restoring social relationships and promoting accountability. However, standardized procedures, officer training, and public education are necessary to ensure its consistent and equitable application.

Abstract

Violence against children remains a pressing human rights issue, with long-term physical, psychological, and social consequences. The emergence of social media has introduced new forms of violence, where adolescents engage in aggressive acts not only to resolve conflict but also to gain recognition and social status in digital spaces. This phenomenon is evident in the content gang cases in Cirebon, where violence is orchestrated, recorded, and disseminated online. The purpose of this study is to examine the qualifications of perpetrators, the construction of criminal responsibility in group-perpetrated violence against minors, and the appropriate legal and criminal implications for both adult and juvenile offenders in the context of social media-based violence. The study employs a normative legal research method with statutory and conceptual approaches, analyzing relevant provisions in the Indonesian Criminal Code, the Child Protection Law, and related doctrines on participation and intent. The findings indicate that perpetrators include direct actors, planners, and content distributors, and that collective acts of violence satisfy the elements of criminal liability under Articles 55, 56, and 170 of the Criminal Code, often applying dolus eventualis. The study concludes that law enforcement must ensure proportionate punishment, differentiate between juvenile and adult offenders, and adopt adaptive and preventive strategies to address the growing impact of digital content-related violence.

Abstract

Corporate crimes in Indonesia, particularly corruption in regional public companies, remain a significant challenge to governance and financial accountability. In the Cirebon region, cases at the Regional Drinking Water Company (Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum, PDAM) revealed large-scale misuse of funds by employees, including falsification of financial records, forgery of signatures, and diversion of state assets into illicit investment activities, resulting in losses exceeding IDR 3.7 billion. This study aims to analyze police investigation procedures for corporate crimes, focusing on the application of legal provisions regarding corporate criminal liability and identifying gaps between written law and investigative practices. A normative legal approach was employed, combining legislative review, conceptual analysis, and case studies of court decisions, supported by observations of police investigation processes and literature review. Results indicate that while the Criminal Procedure Code and Corruption Eradication Laws provide a legal basis to prosecute corporations, investigative practice tends to prioritize individual liability over corporate accountability. Challenges include complex organizational structures, insufficient technical guidelines, and difficulties in attributing corporate guilt. Consequently, enforcement is inconsistent, and the deterrent effect of corporate criminal liability is limited. The study concludes that strengthening regulations, providing detailed technical guidance, and enhancing investigator capacity are critical to achieving legal certainty, justice, and effective prevention of corporate corruption.
