Abstract

Indonesia’s electoral law established the framework to uphold democracy through free and fair elections. However, its implementation faces structural and procedural weaknesses that undermine effectiveness and public trust. This study employs a legal approach to examine these weaknesses, problems, and propose corresponding reforms. Key issues include overlapping authority among the General Elections Commission, the Election Supervisory Agency, and the Election Organizer Ethics Council; weak campaign oversight due to limited resources; unclear legal definitions; lenient sanctions for violations; and challenges in enforcing strict reporting deadlines. Additionally, systemic problems such as the open-list proportional system and the presidential threshold restrict political competition and foster transactional politics. To address these, the study recommends legal and institutional reforms: clarifying institutional roles, enhancing inter-agency coordination, strengthening campaign finance regulation with digital transparency systems, and improving enforcement mechanisms and sanctions. Further, revising the electoral system and threshold requirements, alongside introducing merit-based recruitment and whistleblower protections, are proposed to ensure inclusiveness, accountability, and democratic integrity. These measures aim to create a transparent, fair, and credible electoral process that reinforces democratic principles in Indonesia.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of the digital economy has challenged traditional notions of consumer protection, which historically relied on reactive and positivist legal principles. Increasing data commodification, the pervasive role of algorithms, and structural power asymmetries expose the inadequacy of existing legal doctrines to safeguard fairness in digital transactions. This study seeks to address a critical research gap by reconceptualizing consumer protection law through the lens of algorithmic justice and participatory digital rights. Employing a normative legal methodology combined with comparative and critical approaches, the research analyzes doctrinal evolution across jurisdictions such as the European Union, Brazil, and Indonesia. The findings reveal three major shifts. First, consumer law must move beyond post-transaction liability toward proactive models of oversight, including algorithm audits and design-based compliance. Second, legal doctrines should redefine the consumer as a relational subject embedded in data-driven ecosystems, rather than a rational and autonomous actor. Third, consumer rights need to be embedded within constitutional and ethical frameworks to ensure long-term enforceability and democratic legitimacy. The study contributes theoretically by advancing an interdisciplinary paradigm of consumer law that integrates digital fairness, equity, and human dignity. Practically, it offers strategic directions for regulators and policymakers in designing responsive frameworks that anticipate risks, enhance accountability, and strengthen consumer agency in the digital era.

Abstract

Asymmetric decentralization in Indonesia is designed to grant special autonomy to regions with unique characteristics; however, its implementation often falls short due to institutional capacity limitations and continued dependence on the central government. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of asymmetric decentralization policies in various special autonomous regions of Indonesia, focusing on Aceh, Papua, and Yogyakarta. The research employs a normative and empirical juridical approach, supported by case studies and qualitative data analysis. The findings reveal a significant gap between policy objectives and implementation, attributed to factors such as inadequate local resources and weak coordination between the central and regional governments. The implications of these findings highlight the need to strengthen regional institutional capacity, enhance central government support, and tailor policies to be more context-specific and adaptable to local conditions. This study provides valuable insights for developing more effective and sustainable decentralization policies in Indonesia.

Abstract

The use of candidate surveys in the determination of candidates for regional heads by political parties is an increasingly common practice, but its effects on the legitimacy of political decisions and state administration have not been widely studied. This research aims to explore the role of candidate surveys as an instrument of legitimacy in the context of state administrative law and identify its impact on fairness and transparency. The research method used is qualitative analysis through interpretation of primary legal materials by referring to legal doctrines and relevant theories. The results showed that from the perspective of state administrative law, surveys of candidates for regional heads can strengthen the legitimacy of political decisions by providing evidence of public support, but also potentially pose a risk of manipulation and methodological bias that can undermine fairness in the state administrative system. The implications of these findings highlight the need to improve survey methodologies, implement strict regulations, and conduct effective oversight to ensure transparency and accuracy. This research provides valuable insights into how candidate surveys of regional head candidates can be used fairly and effectively in political processes and public administration.

Abstract

Indonesia as a democracy so that the government is carried out from the people to the people through elected representatives, the influence of the concept of democracy and the sovereignty of the people forms a government based on the will of the majority to carry out the interests of everyone. There is a state institution called the Regional Representative Council as one of the legislative institutions, but the legislative authority owned by the Regional Representative Council tends to be weak compared to the House of Representatives. This research is a normative juridical research, with statute approach and conceptual approach, secondary data is obtained through literature review and then analyzed qualitatively juridically. The results of the study state that juridically the Regional Representative Council has a position as a high state institution that is mandated directly in the constitution, so that the Regional Representative Council is included in the costitutional state organ, but the legislative authority possessed by the Regional Representative Council according to the constitution is quite weak and tends to be a complement to the House of People's Representatives. Thus, it is necessary to strengthen the limited legislative function of the Regional Representative Council, this is in line with the fourth precept of Pancasila. It is also worth considering the use of a strong bicameral system

Abstract

The transparency and integrity of electoral processes are of paramount importance for the health of a democracy. They prevent corruption and ensure fairness. Many ASEAN countries have implemented strict campaign finance regulations with the aim of enhancing transparency and reducing financial influence in politics. However, the effectiveness of these policies depends on the existence of appropriate oversight mechanisms and the specific characteristics of the local political context. This research examines the impact of campaign finance restrictions on electoral transparency in ASEAN, identifies challenges, and highlights effective practices. It also offers recommendations for policy improvements. This research employs a comparative methodology and thematic analysis to examine the similarities and differences in campaign finance restrictions across the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). It utilises data from documents to identify policy patterns and impacts. This research examines the impact of campaign finance restrictions in ASEAN, offering new insights and data on the influence of such regulations on electoral outcomes. It also provides recommendations for enhancing transparency and integrity in elections. This article examines the efficacy of campaign finance restrictions in enhancing electoral transparency and integrity in Indonesia. The findings indicate that, despite the restrictions' objective of curbing undue influence in the electoral process, their implementation continues to encounter substantial obstacles, including inadequate oversight and a dearth of information disclosure. The research underscores the necessity for regulatory reform and the fortification of oversight mechanisms as pivotal strategies to attain elections that are more equitable and transparent.

Abstract

The role of the deputy regional head in Indonesia is primarily intended to complement the regional head by assisting in the execution of governmental duties. However, the ambiguity surrounding the deputy’s authority has emerged as a critical issue, often resulting in disharmony between regional heads and their deputies. If left unresolved, this tension may disrupt regional governance and prompt considerations of abolishing the deputy regional head position altogether. This study employs a normative juridical approach, analyzing secondary data through qualitative juridical methods to produce a descriptive narrative. The findings reveal that the regional head’s authority frequently overshadows the deputy’s role, rendering the deputy regional head largely symbolic and ineffective. This power imbalance has been a recurring source of conflict. To address this, the study proposes a Principle-Based Authorization Model to clearly define and strengthen the deputy’s authority, ensuring a more balanced and harmonious relationship. The urgency of this issue necessitates action from both the government and parliament to revise Law No. 23 of 2014 on Regional Government or to introduce specific regulations delineating the deputy’s responsibilities. By empowering the deputy regional head’s role, this reform could enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of regional governance, contributing to more stable and cooperative leadership at the regional level.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of State Administrative Law in realizing village autonomy based on local wisdom. The method used in this research was a qualitative approach with interviews, observations, and analysis of documents in some of the villages that were the subject of the study. These results show that State Administrative Law is vital in providing a foundation for villages to manage resources and development based on local potential and needs. Local wisdom is crucial for decision-making and resource management within villages, contributing to environmental sustainability and cultural preservation. The synergy between State Administrative Law and local wisdom creates effective policies that empower communities. Challenges in implementation, such as regulatory mismatches with local values, low legal literacy, and conflicts of interest, need to be addressed through legal socialization, capacity building, and collaboration. Therefore, it is recommended that the Government formulate inclusive and adaptive regulations to local wisdom and enhance human resource capacity in villages. Academics should conduct further research and provide policy recommendations. The private sector should play an active role in village economic empowerment, and village communities should actively participate in development and preserve local wisdom.

Abstract

Regional autonomy in Indonesia grants villages the authority to manage their own government affairs, including authority based on origin rights derived from traditions, customs, and local history. However, the implementation of village authority often faces challenges within the framework of regional autonomy. This study aims to analyze and evaluate efforts to harmonize village authority based on origin rights with the principles of regional autonomy. Using a qualitative approach with case studies in several villages, this research found that strengthening village authority through clear and firm legality is the key to achieving optimal harmonization. This study illustrates how the dynamics of village authority grounded in indigenous rights can significantly contribute to the alignment of regional autonomy principles in Indonesia. The focus on legality is a crucial factor that can improve efficacy and accountability in village governance, while also bolstering community participation.

Abstract

Pelanggaran hukum tata usaha negara merupakan isu krusial dalam sistem hukum Indonesia yang mempengaruhi keadilan dan kepastian hukum. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis efektivitas putusan erga omnes dalam mengatasi pelanggaran tersebut dan memperkuat supremasi hukum di Indonesia. Menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi peran putusan erga omnes dalam menciptakan kepastian hukum dan memberikan efek jera terhadap pelanggaran oleh pejabat publik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun putusan erga omnes memiliki potensi besar dalam memperkuat sistem hukum dan melindungi hak-hak masyarakat, implementasinya seringkali terhambat oleh kurangnya pemahaman di kalangan aparat penegak hukum dan birokrasi yang lamban. Implikasi penelitian ini mengindikasikan perlunya peningkatan pemahaman hukum, penguatan regulasi, dan kolaborasi antara pemerintah dan masyarakat sipil untuk memastikan efektivitas putusan erga omnes dalam hukum tata usaha negara.
