Abstract

This article explores how Indonesia’s village governments interpret and implement the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through the process of vernacularization. Given Indonesia’s more than 81,000 villages, each with unique socio-cultural characteristics, localizing global norms is both a legal and practical challenge. The urgency lies in aligning global development frameworks with traditional village governance while maintaining local identities. This study aims to assess the implementation of Village SDGs and to evaluate vernacularization as a mechanism for translating global norms into culturally resonant practices at the grassroots level. Using a normative juridical method, this research analyzes legal documents, policy frameworks, and academic literature to identify patterns in SDG localization. Qualitative doctrinal analysis and thematic content review are applied to trace how global values are reinterpreted through local institutions and practices. Findings indicate that the 17 SDGs, along with Indonesia’s additional Goal 18 on adaptive village culture, align with existing local norms but require contextual adaptation. This is achieved through a three step vernacularization model involving translation, the role of vernacularizers, and framing, all grounded in a human rights based approach. The study concludes that vernacularization is essential to ensuring inclusive, culturally grounded, and sustainable implementation of the SDGs, reinforcing both universal values and local autonomy.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the position of Pancasila in the legal context in Indonesia and analyze the judge's decision with the Pancasila corridor. The judge's decision has considerations and a legal basis in it. The legal basis used by judges is the applicable laws and regulations. Meanwhile, we have Pancasila as the source of all legal sources, which means that the position of Pancasila is above the laws and regulations. Pancasila has values that are used as a guideline for community life. Then, how is the position of Pancasila in the development of legal theory and how Pancasila becomes a legal ideal and is used as a basis for deciding a case in court. One of the decisions used in this paper is a decision related to the exoneration clause. The analysis of Decision No. 400/Pdt/2019/PT SBY was conducted using the view of legal formality and the view of legal realism. The analysis was conducted using doctrinal research methods. This article has a novelty, namely criticizing positivism in Indonesia and offering Pancasila as a living law and integrating Pancasila in the case approach in the judge's decision. This article has theoretical implications as an enrichment of legal theory in Indonesia, making Pancasila the basis for the development of Indonesian state legal theory, and strengthening the legal paradigm. The practical implication is that there is an analysis of Pancasila's views in the judge's decision No. 400/Pdt/2019/PT SBY.

Abstract

The legislation and law enforcement has a causal relationship, if the law does not reflect substantive justice, then law enforcement does not produce substantive justice. There are still many laws that do not reflect substantive justice and law enforcement does not produce substantive justice and does not reflect Pancasila, due to an inappropriate approach. Then what is the fixed approach if you want the law to reflect substantive justice and Pancasila, as well as what is the right approach so that law enforcement produces substantive justice. Based on the above, the problems raised are: whether the legal pluralism approach can realize substantive justice; and how is the legal pluralism approach as a reflection of Pancasila in realizing substantive justice for the formation of laws and law enforcement. The purpose of this study is to formulate that the legal pluralism approach can realize substantive justice and to construct the idea of ​​a legal pluralism approach as a reflection of Pancasila in realizing substantive justice for the formation of laws and law enforcement. The results of this study are that based on the development and concept of the legal pluralism approach, it is a combination of 3 approaches (natural law, state positivism, socio-legal) which will lead to the achievement of substantive justice. To produce laws that reflect substantive justice and Pancasila and law enforcement that produces substantive justice, legislators and law enforcement must use the right approach, namely the legal pluralism approach.

Abstract

The debate regarding the legal status of law as a science remains an important issue in legal studies, especially in relation to the dichotomy between normative and empirical approaches in legal research. This study aims to analyze the character of legal science as a unique discipline (sui generis) and the relevance of integrating normative and empirical approaches in the development of legal science in Indonesia. Legal research in accordance with scientific requirements does not only stop at describing legal analysis as a sui generis science, but also the need to understand the controversies that arise, namely the assumption that legal science is a branch of other disciplines, as well as looking at the background of legal studies based on philosophical schools of thought. The research methodology used is normative legal research with a concept-based approach. The findings show that legal science has a distinctive scientific structure, consisting of legal dogmatics, legal theory, and legal philosophy, thereby confirming the position of law as an autonomous science. Legal studies reveal a dichotomy between legal research and empirical legal research, which should not be considered contradictory. This dichotomy is understood as a complementary relationship that reflects the uniqueness of law as a sui generis discipline that is both prescriptive and descriptive in nature.
