Abstract

With the advancement of the Internet, cyberbullying is fast emerging as a significant issue and a new form of violence in Indonesia. Additionally, whether the Internet has become a catalyst for conventional bullying is a critical question that must be addressed. In Indonesia, cyberbullying is now recognized as an imminent concern with regard to juvenile behaviour and development outcomes. The Indonesian legal system, however, has no direct legislation on cyberbullying. The existing laws on juvenile crimes and online offenses do not adequately address specific concerns raised by cyberbullying. This article explores the correlation between high exposure to violent content over the Internet and the recent increase in violence among children in Indonesia. The effect of cyberbullying victimization and its potential to create perpetrators of bullying has been explored within the context of the inadequacy of the current Indonesian legal system’s response to online harassment, particularly the lack of adequate laws against cyberbullying.

Abstract

The issuance of Supreme Court Circular Letter (SEMA) Number 2 of 2023 concerning Guidelines for Judges in Adjudicating Cases on Applications for Registration of Marriages between People of Different Religious Beliefs has caused problems regarding interfaith marriages in Indonesia. Both conceptually and in practice, interfaith marriages have long been controversial. Using a human rights approach, this article analyzes SEMA's position in the hierarchy of laws and regulations and the impact of SEMA Number 2 of 2023 on the independence of judges and the practice of interfaith marriages in Indonesia. The results of the analysis indicate that SEMA Number 2 of 2023 is contrary to human rights principles, especially the principles of religious rights, the right to choose a partner and the right to get married. Although the content of SEMA should only be related to technical matters of court processes, SEMA Number 2 of 2023 targets the substance of citizens’ rights; it asks judges to reject requests for the validation of interfaith marriages, even though the issue is clearly regulated by the Law on Population Administration. As a result, the chances of validating interfaith marriages through court decisions are closed. This policy not only limits the independence of judges in deciding such cases but also violates the human rights of citizens.
