Abstract

This study examines the practice of outsourcing in Indonesia as a form of hidden exploitation in employment relationships. Initially intended to improve company efficiency and create workforce flexibility, outsourcing often creates serious problems related to the protection of workers' rights. Many outsourced workers face status uncertainty, inadequate wages, limited access to social security, and even discrimination compared to permanent workers. These conditions demonstrate the potential for exploitation that contradicts the principles of social justice as mandated by the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and labor norms. The research method used is a normative juridical approach with a statutory and conceptual approach. Legal sources include primary legal materials in the form of relevant laws and regulations, particularly Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and its amendments, Constitutional Court Decisions, and other derivative regulations. Secondary legal materials in the form of doctrine, labor law literature, and previous research findings are used to enrich the analysis. The results indicate that outsourcing regulations in Indonesia still leave room for ambiguity that companies can exploit to oppress workers. Inconsistencies between laws, government regulations, and on-the-ground practices weaken workers' bargaining power. This research confirms that outsourcing practices that fail to address worker protection principles have the potential to become a form of hidden exploitation, necessitating consistent law enforcement and the formulation of policies that better support social justice and worker welfare.

Abstract

This study discusses the synergy between law and education in providing protection for contract workers in Indonesia. Contract workers are one of the labor groups that often face problems related to legal status, job uncertainty, and limitations in obtaining normative rights as stipulated in labor regulations. Although Law Number 13 of 2003 on Manpower and its derivative regulations have provided a legal framework, implementation in the field often shows that there are loopholes that weaken the position of contract workers. Therefore, an interdisciplinary approach is needed that integrates the legal and educational dimensions to provide more comprehensive protection. The research method used is normative legal research with a qualitative approach, through an examination of laws and regulations, doctrines, and labor practices, and enriched with educational studies that emphasize the importance of legal literacy for workers. The results of the study show that legal protection for contract workers has not been fully effective due to weak supervision, low understanding of workers about their rights, and the practice of contract abuse by employers. In this context, education plays an important role as an important instrument to increase the legal awareness of contract workers, both through formal and non-formal education, as well as legal and employment skills-based training. The conclusion of this study confirms that legal and educational synergy is a relevant strategy to strengthen the protection of contract workers. The law provides a binding normative framework, while education forms the awareness and empowerment of workers in demanding their rights. Thus, the combination of the two is expected to be able to realize social justice and improve the welfare of contract workers in Indonesia.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the position of heirs from interfaith marriages in the analysis of the decision of the constitutional court number 71/PUU- XX/2022, Interfaith marriages often cause problems in terms of legal status and inheritance rights, especially in Indonesia which has cultural and religious diversity. This research uses a normative juridical approach with the aim of examining various legal phenomena through analysis of the relationship between legal norms and their impact. The data used as the basis for this research is secondary data, which consists of various sources such as books, scientific journals, and academic articles. The results of the research indicate. Based on Constitutional Court Decision No. 71/PUU-XX/2022, it confirms that interfaith marriages that are not valid according to religious law cannot be recognised by the state. The state asserts that the validity of a marriage depends on the provisions of religious law, not just administrative registration. Because the petition was formally rejected (because it did not fulfil the legal standing requirements), the Court did not assess the substance of the norm being tested, so there was no change to the legal position of interfaith marriages. The provisions of Constitutional Court Decision No. 71/PUU-XX/2022 have not provided adequate constitutional protection for heirs of interfaith marriages. The rejection of the petition on formal grounds resulted in no change to the norm in Article 2 paragraph (1) of the Marriage Law.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perkembangan hukum hibah dan wasiat kepada anak angkat sebagai bentuk perlindungan hukum dalam sistem kewarisan Indonesia berdasarkan perspektif Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Perdata (KUHPerdata) dan Kompilasi Hukum Islam (KHI). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan kasus. Bahan hukum yang digunakan terdiri atas bahan hukum primer, sekunder, dan tersier yang dianalisis secara deskriptif-kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anak angkat tidak memiliki kedudukan sebagai ahli waris menurut hukum waris Islam karena tidak adanya hubungan nasab dengan orang tua angkat. Namun demikian, hukum Indonesia tetap memberikan perlindungan hukum melalui instrumen hibah, wasiat, dan wasiat wajibah sebagaimana diatur dalam Pasal 209 KHI. Dalam perspektif KUHPerdata, anak angkat memiliki peluang yang lebih luas untuk memperoleh harta dari orang tua angkat melalui hibah dan wasiat berdasarkan prinsip kebebasan hukum perdata. Perkembangan praktik peradilan menunjukkan adanya kecenderungan hakim untuk mengedepankan nilai keadilan, kemanfaatan, dan kemaslahatan melalui penerapan wasiat wajibah dan pengakuan terhadap hibah yang dilakukan secara sah. Meskipun demikian, perlindungan hukum terhadap anak angkat masih menghadapi berbagai tantangan, seperti sengketa dengan ahli waris kandung, pengangkatan anak yang tidak dilakukan melalui prosedur hukum yang resmi, serta perlunya harmonisasi antara hukum nasional dan hukum Islam. Oleh karena itu, hibah, wasiat, dan wasiat wajibah memiliki peran strategis dalam mewujudkan kepastian hukum, keadilan, dan perlindungan terhadap hak-hak anak angkat dalam sistem kewarisan Indonesia.

Abstract

Era Society 5.0 telah mengubah karakter kejahatan melalui munculnya tindak pidana berbasis digital yang menantang paradigma hukum pidana konvensional. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis konstruksi hukum pidana digital di Indonesia, khususnya relasi normatif antara KUHP Nasional, UU ITE, dan prinsip perlindungan hak konstitusional warga negara, serta menawarkan arah reformulasi hukum yang lebih berkeadilan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode yuridis-normatif dengan pendekatan peraturan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan filosofis melalui perspektif hak asasi manusia serta maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah. Kajian ini menemukan bahwa regulasi tindak pidana digital Indonesia masih menghadapi persoalan disharmonisasi norma, perluasan kriminalisasi, dan potensi multitafsir dalam penerapan hukum. Kondisi tersebut berimplikasi terhadap keseimbangan antara kebutuhan keamanan siber dan jaminan kebebasan berekspresi, privasi, serta hak atas informasi. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa pembangunan hukum pidana digital tidak cukup diarahkan pada penguatan aspek represif, tetapi harus berbasis prinsip legalitas, proporsionalitas, due process of law, dan perlindungan hak digital. Reformulasi hukum siber Indonesia perlu dibangun melalui sistem regulasi yang integratif, responsif, dan berorientasi pada kemaslahatan manusia. Perspektif maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah memperkuat gagasan bahwa hukum digital harus menjamin perlindungan kehormatan, keamanan, kebebasan, dan martabat manusia sebagai tujuan utama hukum.

Abstract

This study examines the annulment of arbitral awards within the Indonesian legal system as an extraordinary legal remedy that lies at the intersection of arbitral autonomy, the principle of finality, and the pursuit of substantive justice. The research is motivated by the persistent tension between the final and binding character of arbitral awards and the necessity of judicial intervention to address awards affected by fundamental procedural defects. Employing normative legal research, this study adopts statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Legal materials are collected through library research and analyzed using descriptive, systematic, and prescriptive legal reasoning. The findings reveal that Law Number 30 of 1999 on Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution confines annulment to three narrowly defined procedural grounds document forgery, newly discovered decisive evidence, and fraud thereby excluding judicial review of the substantive merits of arbitral awards. Nevertheless, judicial practice demonstrates inconsistent interpretations that occasionally expand the scope of annulment beyond its statutory limits, resulting in judicial overreach and weakening the final and binding nature of arbitration. This study argues that the legitimacy of annulment should be understood as a procedural safeguard rather than a mechanism for substantive review and proposes a Balanced Annulment Doctrine, under which judicial intervention is justified only to preserve procedural integrity while respecting arbitral autonomy. The study concludes that maintaining a proportionate balance between legal certainty, minimum judicial intervention, and substantive justice is essential to strengthening the credibility of arbitration and enhancing Indonesia's legal certainty in commercial dispute resolution.

Abstract

Indonesia's electoral system remains a subject of academic and political debate, particularly regarding the effectiveness of open-list and closed-list proportional representation systems in establishing a representative, accountable, and public-oriented democracy. Previous studies have predominantly examined these electoral models from the perspectives of constitutional law, political participation, and democratic institutionalization. However, limited attention has been given to evaluating electoral systems from a substantive perspective concerning the achievement of public welfare and the prevention of political harms. Therefore, this study employs maqāṣid al-sharīʿah as an evaluative framework to assess the quality and consequences of electoral systems. This study aims to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of open-list and closed-list proportional representation systems and to formulate a reconstruction model of Indonesia's electoral system oriented toward public welfare. This research applies a normative legal method using statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Data were collected through library research and analyzed qualitatively using a descriptive-analytical method. The findings indicate that while the open-list proportional system strengthens voter sovereignty, it also creates challenges, including vote-buying, high political costs, economic-political oligarchy, and electoral corruption. Meanwhile, the closed-list proportional system provides stronger party institutionalization but requires transparency and internal party democratization. This study contributes to developing maqāṣid al-sharīʿah as an evaluative framework for reconstructing modern electoral systems based on justice, accountability, and public welfare.

Abstract

The implementation of restorative justice within the Indonesian criminal justice system has developed significantly as a shift from a retributive approach toward a justice paradigm oriented toward recovery. However, its implementation still faces fundamental problems, including fragmented regulations, inconsistent standards among law enforcement institutions, and the absence of a comprehensive national framework that ensures legal certainty and uniform application. This study aims to analyze the problems of restorative justice implementation and formulate a reconstruction of restorative justice standardization within the Indonesian criminal justice system based on maqashid syariah. This research employs normative legal research using statutory, conceptual, and philosophical approaches. The findings demonstrate that restorative justice standardization is essential to integrate the principles of legal certainty, victim protection, offender accountability, and social restoration. The maqashid syariah perspective provides a philosophical foundation that restorative justice should be directed toward achieving public benefit (maslahah), preventing harm (mafsadah), and protecting fundamental human values. The contribution of this research lies in proposing a national restorative justice standardization model that integrates modern criminal justice objectives with substantive justice principles based on maqashid syariah as a direction for criminal justice reform in Indonesia. Theoretically, this model expands the conceptual foundation of restorative justice by integrating maqashid syariah with contemporary principles of criminal justice, particularly in balancing legal certainty, victim-oriented justice, accountability, and social restoration. Practically, the proposed standardization can serve as a reference for law enforcement institutions in developing consistent procedures and criteria for restorative justice implementation while strengthening victim protection and offender accountability. From a policy perspective, the findings support the development of an integrated national framework for restorative justice that harmonizes regulations and institutional practices across the Indonesian criminal justice system, thereby promoting greater consistency, legal certainty, and substantive justice.

Abstract

The research was a qualitative legal study concerning alternatives to the death penalty as stipulated in Law Number 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code, and it was evaluated from the perspective of maqashid al-shari'ah. The method involved initially collecting both primary and secondary data, which were then scrutinized within relevant literature. After examining and analyzing the data, the researcher concluded that the alternative provisions to the death penalty in Law Number 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code exhibit both similarities and differences compared to Islamic law as interpreted by maqashid shariah. The similarities include that both the Law and Islamic law offer alternative sanctions that no longer involve taking a life, which in the context of the National Criminal Code could be considered aligned with maqashid shariah. However, a notable difference lies in cases of murder or taking another's life, where Islamic law does not allow for the alternative sanction of diyat (financial compensation) unless the victim's family forgives the perpetrator. For the National Criminal Code to align with maqashid shariah in providing an alternative to the death penalty for murder (resulting in the loss of life), it must first secure forgiveness from the victim's family as a prerequisite to commuting the sentence from death to life imprisonment or a maximum of 20 years in prison.
