Abstract

This paper explores the legal framework and law enforcement mechanisms regarding illegal mining in Indonesia, focusing on the implications for environmental protection and criminal accountability. The study employs a normative juridical analysis to examine the existing laws, including the Mining Law No. 4 of 2009, Environmental Law No. 32 of 2009, and the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP). The paper highlights the gaps in the legal system, such as weak enforcement, inadequate penalties, and the challenges posed by corruption within local authorities. It also assesses the social and environmental consequences of illegal mining, including deforestation, pollution, and the exploitation of local communities. The findings suggest that while Indonesia has a comprehensive legal framework, the effectiveness of its enforcement mechanisms remains insufficient. Based on the analysis, the paper proposes recommendations to strengthen law enforcement, improve penalties, combat corruption, and support alternative livelihoods for communities affected by illegal mining.

Abstract

The Indonesian legislation on carbon trading is a key instrument for national and global climate targets. This analysis, according to the present study, utilizes a normative juridical model in viewing Indonesia's carbon trading law and focusing on implications toward civil liability and environmental obligation. The findings suggest that while the model is aligned with international norms and is multi-carbon price inclusive, it is beset with enforcement uncertainties, uncemented provisions of civil liability, and weakly constructed monitoring mechanisms. Additionally, the absence of adequate community participation mechanisms is not only an issue of equity and social inclusion. In learning from global best practices, such as the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) and China's national carbon market, the research identifies areas of improvement that involve enhancing legal clarity, enforcement mechanisms, and environmental responsibility. These are key in ensuring that Indonesia's carbon trading system has a sufficient contribution to promote both legal accountability and environmental sustainability.

Abstract

This study explores the legal frameworks, enforcement challenges, and economic implications of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) in BRICS countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—using a normative juridical approach and qualitative analysis. The findings reveal significant disparities in the governance of IPR among these nations, with China and India leading in innovation and enforcement reforms, while Brazil, Russia, and South Africa face persistent challenges related to institutional capacity and judicial delays. Despite progress in aligning with international standards such as TRIPS, enforcement gaps and socio-economic priorities influence the effectiveness of IPR systems. The study also highlights the dual economic impact of IPR: fostering innovation and investment while raising concerns over access to essential goods. This research underscores the need for harmonized frameworks, enhanced enforcement mechanisms, and a balanced approach to innovation and equity in BRICS countries.
