Abstract

The issue of sentencing minors for criminal behavior persistently garners widespread public attention, stemming from the acknowledgement that children, too, can engage in illicit activities. Within the Indonesian context, juvenile punishment is formally governed by Act 11 of 2012, which outlines the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. This normative study aspires to scrutinize and answer two primary research questions, which are 1)To what extent does the existing stipulation in Act 11 of 2012, concerning the duration of incarceration for minors convicted of serious offenses, adhere to recognized principles of justice and accomplish the intended goals of the sentencing? and 2)What ideal legislative provisions should be adopted or revised pertaining to the length of incarceration for juveniles guilty of severe crimes in order to align with just principles and effectively fulfill the objectives of sentencing in future implementations? While the study maintains that the welfare and psychological well-being of children must be safeguarded against the adverse effects of detention, it simultaneously argues that equal consideration must be extended to the grievances and trauma experienced by the victims of juvenile crimes.

Abstract

As Indonesia navigates its complex path towards economic and political modernization, the transition to democracy has seen it evolve into an industrial society. However, this change has inadequately empowered vital economic sectors for public welfare. Additionally, the nation's unstable democratic politics stray from Pancasila, Indonesia's guiding philosophical principles advocating for deliberative dialogue. Over the past 15 years, developmental politics and political liberalization have clashed, undermining both the collective economy and cultural wisdom, and eroding Indonesia's unique cultural identity. This has stirred doubts about the fit of democracy within Indonesia's nation-state construct. The ensuing research aims to reevaluate indigenous wisdom and political ideologies ingrained in Indonesia's diverse ethnic landscape, focusing on untapped social capital to bolster the democratic framework. The study comprises two key research areas: one looks at ethnic communities like Wajo and Minang, and the second studies social dynamics in various Java city parks. Grounded in Consultative Democracy and examined through a phenomenological lens, the research sits within the broader arena of political anthropology. It uses a qualitative-interpretive methodology to delve into culture, economics, and politics, aspiring to enrich our understanding of their intricate interconnections in modern Indonesia and contribute to a nuanced dialogue on Indonesia's democratic viability

Abstract

This research begins an effort to overcome the complex challenges of formulating the concept of religious obligations among diverse Indonesian society. This study emphasizes the importance of understanding aspects of these obligations in the context of Indonesia's national ideology, Pancasila, which emphasizes the principle of Belief in One Almighty God. Facing the legal and ethical complexities involved, this research uses a juridical-normative approach as an analytical framework to examine and understand policies surrounding religious obligations in Indonesia. The juridical-normative approach is very useful in identifying and interpreting government policies and societal norms that influence religious adherence in a country. Although the Indonesian government does not strictly require its citizens to adhere to only officially recognized religions — namely Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism — there is a fundamental tension between formal recognition and actual practice. The research results show that in practice, adherents of local beliefs such as Sundanese Wiwitan, Kaharingan, and Parmalim, which are inherited from generation to generation, often face discrimination that is contrary to the spirit of the first principle of Pancasila. This research illustrates the tension between official lists of religions and the reality that not all spiritual denominations are treated equally. This gap between policy and practice raises questions about the consistent application of Indonesia's constitutional law and the basic ideology of Pancasila across the diverse religious spectrum. This study aims to be a first step to further explore and discuss the complexity of religious obligations and freedom in Indonesia, especially in the context of the legal and ethical framework.

Abstract

Democracy, regarded as the epitome of equitable governance, is celebrated for promoting freedom, justice, and equality. However, when Democracy is implemented within the cultural and philosophical framework of Pancasila—Indonesia's foundational ideology—significant tensions emerge. This study delves into these complexities, critically examining how democratic principles intersect with Pancasila's emphasis on consensus, collectivism, and ethical leadership. The analysis identifies critical areas of conflict: The overreliance on majority rule can marginalize minority voices, The prioritization of individualism is often at the expense of social cohesion, and The focus is on popular leadership rather than governance rooted in moral integrity. Additionally, the persistence of economic inequality in a democratic context raises concerns about the system's ability to deliver social justice, a core tenet of Pancasila. The study argues that to serve the interests of the Indonesian people more effectively, Democracy in Indonesia must be recalibrated to align with Pancasila's values. It concludes with recommendations for institutional reforms emphasizing consensus-building, ethical leadership, and equitable resource distribution, aiming to create a governance model that reflects the people's will and upholds the cultural and ethical values central to Indonesia's national identity.

Abstract

This article explores the growing political apathy among Indonesia's young generation, which poses significant challenges to the nation's democratic future. Utilizing a phenomenological approach, the study delves into the lived experiences of Indonesian youth to uncover the factors contributing to their disengagement from political processes. Key factors identified include disillusionment with the political system, the influence of digital media, socio-economic pressures, cultural and familial expectations, and educational shortcomings. The article also discusses the implications of this apathy for Indonesia's democracy and proposes recommendations to re-engage the youth in the political process. These include reforming civic education, leveraging digital media for positive engagement, addressing socio-economic barriers, promoting a culture of political participation, strengthening political institutions, and encouraging youth leadership.

Abstract

This study investigates the adverse impact of political buzzers on communication intelligence within Indonesian society during the 2014–2024 period. Political buzzers, typically anonymous digital actors affiliated with political elites, have emerged as powerful manipulators of public discourse through disinformation, emotional provocation, and identity-based polarization. Utilizing a qualitative case study methodology, this research employs critical discourse analysis, document analysis, and semi-structured interviews to explore how sustained exposure to buzzer-driven content degrades critical thinking, discourages dialogical tolerance, and undermines the epistemic foundations necessary for democratic engagement. The findings demonstrate that buzzers deploy binary framing, fabricate consensus, and target dissenters with delegitimizing rhetoric, resulting in weakened public reasoning and increased cynicism. These effects are unevenly distributed across regions and demographics: while urban citizens exhibit media fatigue and withdrawal, rural populations remain more susceptible to disinformation. The study situates these dynamics within broader theoretical frameworks on communicative rationality and network propaganda, extending the discussion to include the cognitive and ethical dimensions of political discourse manipulation. This research contributes to interdisciplinary scholarship on digital politics and democratic resilience by foregrounding the concept of communication intelligence—an underexplored but essential faculty for informed participation in contemporary democracies. It concludes with a call for structural and cultural reforms, including the institutionalization of media literacy, platform regulation, the promotion of ethical digital norms, and the strengthening of civil society dialogue forums. These measures are imperative to counteract the corrosive influence of political buzzers and to restore a communication environment conducive to rational, ethical, and inclusive democratic deliberation.
