Abstract

The objective of this research is to examine the discourse surrounding corruption, with a particular focus on whether it is perceived as a legal issue or a moral issue. This research was conducted in response to the shortcomings of scholars' analysis in discussing the issue of corruption. Furthermore, in light of the considerable number of corruption cases globally, particularly in Indonesia, it is imperative that the government and relevant stakeholders reframe corruption as a national concern. This research is a descriptive qualitative study, employing data collection techniques through literature studies and analysis using deductive syllogism tools. The research concluded that corruption has become a social disease that continues to spread from upstream to downstream of human life. Currently, corruption is only focused on legal reform, whereas the root or heart of corruption is morality. Corruption is a moral issue, not a legal issue; therefore, it must be addressed through a moral, ethical, and transcendental approach.

Abstract

Volume air laut global mengalami peningkatan yang cukup besar sebagai akibat dari menurunnya akuifer air tanah dan perubahan iklim. Meskipun terjadi penurunan emisi gas rumah kaca dan tingkat polusi, hal tersebut tidak menjamin tidak terjadinya peningkatan muka air laut. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk mempersiapkan strategi untuk beradaptasi dan memperkuat resistensi perubahan yang sedang berlangsung dan yang akan terjadi di lingkungan pesisir. Fenomena naiknya muka air laut memberikan tantangan terhadap UNCLOS, sebagai sebuah konstitusi kelautan, karena berpotensi mengubah tatanan pengaturan pesisir dan laut global. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan yuridis normatif yang bersifat deskriptif dan kualitatif, penelitian dilakukan dengan menggali kerangka UNCLOS untuk mengatasi permasalahan yang telah diidentifikasi. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dampak kenaikan volume air laut global begitu kompleks dan multidimensional. Penulis mengidentifikasi dampak-dampak tersebut mengancam keberadaan masyarakat di wilayah pesisir, hilangnya keanekaragaman hayati laut, tidak terpenuhinya hak asasi manusia, serta hilangnya hak kedaulatan dan yurisdiksi negara kepulauan dan negara berkembang kepulauan kecil. Untuk menjamin kepastian hukum dan perlindungan terhadap dampak yang ada, kerangka UNCLOS memainkan peranan penting. Akan tetapi, UNCLOS belum mampu mengatasi urgensi dan permasalahan yang timbul akibat kenaikan permukaan air laut. Oleh karena itu, penulis berpendapat bahwa kepentingan negara-negara di seluruh dunia memerlukan pembaruan rutin UNCLOS dan penyelarasannya dengan perjanjian internasional

Abstract

Creating Democracy: Arendt and Bakhtin in Dialogue is an important contribution to political theory and social philosophy. By connecting Hannah Arendt's and Mikhail Bakhtin's thoughts, Hersch offers an innovative perspective on understanding democracy as a dynamic and participatory process. Although coming from different disciplinary backgrounds, Arendt and Bakhtin share fundamental ideas about the importance of freedom, social interaction, and meaning-making in political life.

Abstract

Decentralized governance often creates a gap between regulatory authority and enforcement capacity at the local level. This study examines the Indonesian Satuan Polisi Pamong Praja (Satpol-PP) as a model of subnational enforcement designed to address this challenge. This research employs a qualitative and comparative approach based on document analysis of legal frameworks, policy reports, and academic literature. It compares Satpol-PP with similar institutions in France, Germany, Canada, and the United States across key institutional dimensions. The findings show that Satpol-PP represents a hybrid civilian enforcement body operating under local government authority with administrative powers to enforce regional regulations and maintain public order. Compared to its international counterparts, Satpol-PP has a broader functional scope, strong political embeddedness, and a non-militarized character, though it faces challenges related to professionalism, legal clarity, and public legitimacy. Satpol-PP demonstrates that decentralized states can develop locally anchored, non-police enforcement mechanisms. While not universally replicable, its model offers valuable insights into institutional adaptability, civilian-based enforcement, and the importance of balancing local responsiveness with accountability and legal safeguards.
