Abstract

The Indonesian constitutional system regulates the organization and distribution of state power through the trias politica principle, which divides power into executive, legislative, and judicial branches, with a checks and balances mechanism to prevent abuse of power and maintain constitutional democracy.This study analyzes the constitutional framework of the institutional hierarchy, identifies challenges to the implementation of checks and balances, including executive dominance and institutional politicization, evaluates the role of the Constitutional Court as the guardian of the constitution, examines the dynamics of central-regional relations, and formulates reform recommendations to strengthen the balance of power and democratic governance.The research methodology employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) conducted in a systematic and structured manner to identify, evaluate, and synthesize relevant scholarly articles to generate a comprehensive, evidence-based understanding of conceptual developments and empirical findings.The results show that the 1945 Constitution establishes a clear institutional hierarchy based on the trias politica. However, the implementation of checks and balances faces challenges such as executive dominance, weakening of the legislative-judicial system, and institutional politicization, which undermine the quality of governance. The Constitutional Court plays a strategic role in resolving conflicts of authority and strengthening constitutional supremacy through judicial review and authoritative constitutional interpretation.The conclusion emphasizes the need for systemic reform to strengthen checks and balances, increase the independence of state institutions, and create a balance between decentralized regional autonomy and unity of command in maintaining the integrity of the unitary state government. This research provides theoretical contributions to the development of constitutional law and practical contributions to the formulation of policies to strengthen Indonesia's accountable and democratic constitutional system.

Abstract

The concept of popular sovereignty is a fundamental pillar of modern democratic governance systems, encompassing theoretical, normative, and empirical dimensions. This research examines the philosophical foundations, institutional mechanisms, and practices of public participation in the implementation of popular sovereignty.The research objective is to comprehensively analyze the concept of popular sovereignty through a synthesis of theoretical perspectives, exploring institutional mechanisms, analyzing the role of public participation, identifying implementation challenges, and formulating implications for strengthening popular sovereignty in modern governance.The research employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, conducted systematically, structured, and transparently to identify, evaluate, and synthesize relevant scholarly articles.The results show that popular sovereignty has a strong philosophical foundation derived from the classical thinking of Locke and Rousseau, which remains relevant in modern constitutionalism. Implementation through a representative system faces significant challenges in balancing democratic ideals with government effectiveness, requiring a strengthened legal framework and comprehensive institutional reforms to ensure government accountability and responsiveness.Meaningful public participation is a substantive manifestation of popular sovereignty that is essential in the policy cycle, but faces structural obstacles such as corruption and social injustice. There is an inherent tension between the aspirations of popular sovereignty and its practice that can trigger populist responses, so a balance is needed between democratic aspirations and the constitutional framework to prevent the tyranny of the majority and protect the rule of law.

Abstract

Human rights are a fundamental pillar of modern legal and constitutional architecture, guaranteeing the dignity, freedom, and equality of individuals. Indonesia, as a democratic state governed by the rule of law, has a constitutional obligation to protect human rights, as stated in the 1945 Constitution.This study analyzes the human rights protection system in the Indonesian constitution through four dimensions: the constitutional guarantees of the post-amendment 1945 Constitution, the institutional roles of the Constitutional Court and the National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM), gaps between norms and implementation, and the protection of minority rights and the principle of non-discrimination.The research methodology employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), conducted systematically, transparently, and structured to identify, evaluate, and synthesize relevant scholarly articles to obtain a comprehensive, evidence-based understanding.The results show that the post-amendment 1945 Constitution provides comprehensive constitutional guarantees for human rights, but significant gaps remain in implementation. The Constitutional Court and Komnas HAM play strategic roles but face limited authority and political support. Implementation barriers are multidimensional, encompassing socio-political factors, weak legal mechanisms, and structural institutional weaknesses.The study concluded that human rights protection in Indonesia requires strengthening public legal literacy, consistent enforcement of constitutional norms, increased institutional capacity, and comprehensive reform. Protection of minority rights based on Article 28I Paragraph (4) of the 1945 Constitution is still not optimal due to weak law enforcement and discriminatory regional regulations, so that synchronization of national-regional regulations is an urgent agenda.

Abstract

The people's representative institution is a key pillar of modern constitutional democracy, serving as the formal representation of the will of the people in the exercise of state power. In a presidential system, this institution holds a unique position as an equal partner to the executive, with democratic legitimacy derived from an independent electoral mandate.This study comprehensively analyzes the position and function of the House of Representatives (DPR) in Indonesia's presidential system through four dimensions: constitutional construction and inter-institutional relations, the effectiveness of the legislative function, the strength of the oversight function as a mechanism of checks and balances, and the identification of an institutional reform agenda to optimize the DPR's role sustainably.The research methodology employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) conducted systematically, structured, and transparently to identify, evaluate, and synthesize various relevant scholarly articles to generate a comprehensive, evidence-based understanding of conceptual developments and empirical findings.The results indicate that the DPR holds a strong constitutional position and is equal to the President, with a collaborative relationship based on the principle of proportional distribution of power. The legislative function, as the core of the DPR's constitutional role, still faces challenges in terms of productivity and quality of legislation, requiring institutional capacity strengthening. The oversight function, through the right of inquiry, is a vital mechanism for maintaining checks and balances, requiring consistent implementation to achieve true executive accountability.The study concludes that multidimensional institutional reform, encompassing structural, legal, and representative capacity aspects, is an urgent step to ensure representative institutions are able to carry out their constitutional functions optimally and sustainably. Strengthening checks and balances and improving the quality of legislation are fundamental prerequisites for optimizing the role of the DPR in Indonesia's democratic and just presidential system.

Abstract

Judicial review is a fundamental instrument in modern constitutionalism, upholding the supremacy of the constitution and protecting the fundamental rights of citizens. This mechanism ensures the hierarchy of legal norms and reflects a commitment to the principle of the rule of law in the Indonesian constitutional system.This study analyzes the development of judicial review in Indonesia through four dimensions: the historical-theoretical foundations in a comparative context, the dualism of authority between the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court, reforms to mechanisms oriented toward constitutional supremacy, and the dynamics of judicial activism and their implications for the balance of the Indonesian constitutional system.The research method used a systematic, transparent, and structured Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to identify, evaluate, and synthesize relevant scholarly articles to obtain a comprehensive overview of conceptual developments and empirical findings.The research discussion shows that Indonesian judicial review is influenced by global legal traditions such as Marbury v. Madison and the theory of Hans Kelsen. The dualism of authority between the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court creates inconsistent decisions that undermine legal certainty. The judicial review mechanism faces structural, procedural, and institutional weaknesses that require comprehensive reform through streamlining procedures, strengthening transparency, and increasing public participation.The Constitutional Court has developed as a progressive constitutional actor through judicial activism that shapes the national legal landscape. Integration of the judicial review system, reform of mechanisms oriented toward constitutional supremacy, and strengthening independence by establishing clear limits on constitutional authority are urgent agendas to realize an effective and reliable judicial review system that guarantees legal certainty for all Indonesian citizens.

Abstract

Separation of powers is a fundamental principle of modern constitutional government, preventing the concentration of power and ensuring accountable, transparent, and democratic governance through the division of legislative, executive, and judicial functions that ensure mutual oversight.This study analyzes the implications of separation of powers on government stability through four dimensions: theoretical and philosophical foundations, the effectiveness of checks and balances mechanisms, the phenomenon of executive aggrandizement, and contextual factors in implementation from an international comparative perspective.The research methodology utilizes a systematic, structured, and comprehensive Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to identify, evaluate, and synthesize relevant scientific findings in a transparent and replicable manner.The research discussion demonstrates that separation of powers has a strong theoretical and philosophical foundation as an instrument of democratic stability, checks and balances mechanisms effectively prevent abuse of power, executive aggrandizement threatens constitutional balance, and the effectiveness of implementation is strongly influenced by historical, structural, and cultural factors in each country, requiring a contextual approach.The study concludes that separation of powers is fundamental to the stability of democratic governance through preventing the concentration of power and ensuring institutional accountability, with checks and balances as a preventive instrument for abuse of power, but the phenomenon of executive dominance requires firm constitutional reform, and effective implementation requires contextual strategies according to the specific conditions of each country.

Abstract

The Constitutional Court is a strategic state institution that serves as the guardian of the supremacy of the constitution and the protector of citizens' constitutional rights. This institution reflects a commitment to the principle of constitutionalism in limiting state power through democratic institutional mechanisms.This study analyzes the Constitutional Court's role in strengthening Indonesia's constitutional democracy through four dimensions: its function as guardian of the supremacy of the constitution, its role in democratization and electoral disputes, threats to the institution's independence, and its institutional design based on international comparative standards to formulate recommendations for strategic strengthening.The research methodology employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) conducted systematically, transparently, and structured to identify, evaluate, and synthesize relevant scientific findings to gain a comprehensive understanding and formulate theoretical and practical implications.The results show that the Constitutional Court performs an irreplaceable function in maintaining the supremacy of the constitution, the balance of power, and the resolution of electoral disputes, strengthening the quality of democracy. However, there are serious threats in the form of political intervention and the paradox of judicial authoritarianism that erode the institution's independence and integrity, necessitating the strengthening of protection mechanisms and urgent institutional reform.The study concluded that the Constitutional Court's effectiveness as a guardian of the constitution is largely determined by the consistency of its enforcement of judicial review, integrity in resolving election disputes, protection of its independence from political interference, and appropriate institutional design. Improvements based on international comparative standards are a strategic step to optimize the Constitutional Court's contribution to realizing a stable and sustainable constitutional democracy in Indonesia.

Abstract

Pengalihan aset Badan Usaha Milik Negara (BUMN) kepada PT Danantara, anak perusahaan dari Lembaga Pengelola Investasi Indonesia (LPI), menimbulkan permasalahan hukum yang signifikan, khususnya terkait dengan penguasaan negara atas kekayaan publik dan prinsip keadilan fiskal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis legalitas dan konstitusionalitas proses pengalihan aset BUMN dalam perspektif hukum tata negara, serta mengevaluasi implikasi perpajakannya. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan yuridis-normatif dengan strategi narrative review, yang memanfaatkan teknik analisis deduktif terhadap peraturan perundang-undangan, putusan pengadilan, literatur ilmiah bereputasi, dan dokumen kebijakan resmi pemerintah. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun pengalihan aset dapat dilakukan secara administratif melalui perikatan sah, substansi kebijakannya belum sepenuhnya mencerminkan prinsip supremasi konstitusi sebagaimana diatur dalam Pasal 23 dan Pasal 33 UUD 1945. Dari sisi perpajakan, skema inbreng atau penyertaan modal ke entitas non-APBN seperti Danantara berpotensi menciptakan celah penghindaran pajak dan ketimpangan fiskal yang bertentangan dengan asas keadilan pajak. Artikel ini memberikan kontribusi akademik dalam memperkuat argumentasi konstitusional dan fiskal terhadap kebijakan pengelolaan aset negara, serta merekomendasikan agar perancang kebijakan menerapkan prinsip kehati-hatian dalam merumuskan skema pengalihan kekayaan publik.
