Abstract

Children who are victims of crime often face severe challenges in their recovery after the incident. In the context of the Indonesian criminal justice system, protecting their rights is still an issue that has not been fully resolved. This study aims to analyze the procedures and considerations of judges in determining the amount of compensation for victims, especially children, who are victims of crime. The normative method examines relevant legal regulations and related legal principles. The analysis shows that the regulation on restitution for child victims has provided a systematic framework to ensure fair compensation. However, there are still challenges in effectively implementing restitution, especially in cases of sexual assault, where offenders often struggle to fulfil their restitution obligations. It creates injustice for victims, who have to bear the brunt of financial and emotional losses. In this context, the role of the judge is crucial in determining the amount of restitution appropriate to the loss suffered by the victim. The protection of child victims of crime is not only the responsibility of the criminal justice system but also of the entire society. Therefore, further measures are needed to increase public awareness and support in victim recovery, as well as to ensure that the criminal law system is more humane and progressive in protecting the rights of victims, especially the rights of children.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the application of the principles of unlawful acts and environmental justice to companies, obstacles to law enforcement, and the monitoring and enforcement system related to environmental damage in Indonesia. Environmental damage caused by corporate activities is a global issue. Companies often ignore ecological impacts, threaten biodiversity, and harm surrounding communities, requiring strict law enforcement. Law enforcement against companies that damage the environment in Indonesia faces major obstacles, such as a lack of effective supervision, corruption, and political influence, which hinder corporate responsibility for environmental damage. This study offers a novel perspective by focusing on the legal responsibility of perpetrators of land damage, moving beyond previous research that primarily discussed the government's right to sue for unlawful acts. This study uses a normative juridical approach with analysis of legal regulations, principles of corporate responsibility, and environmental justice, using secondary data analyzed qualitatively. The results indicate that corporate responsibility for environmental damage from the perspective of unlawful acts and environmental justice in Indonesia still faces obstacles. Although regulations govern corporate responsibility, applying the principles is ineffective due to political influence, corruption, and weak monitoring. Strengthening regulatory institutions, implementing transparent reporting systems, and imposing stricter sanctions on companies damaging the environment are important steps to ensure justice. Developed countries can serve as models for improving Indonesia’s law enforcement system.

Abstract

This study examines the legal position of customary criminal law after the full implementation of Indonesia’s National Criminal Code in 2026, particularly the relationship between the recognition of living law, the principle of legality, and customary settlement of criminal cases. It employs normative juridical research through statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. The primary legal materials include the 1945 Constitution, Emergency Law Number 1 of 1951, Law Number 48 of 2009 on Judicial Power, Law Number 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code, and relevant judicial decisions and legal scholarship. The study finds that customary criminal law may continue to function as a source of unwritten law, but its recognition is constitutionally limited. A customary norm must remain living, known, accepted, and obeyed by the relevant community and must comply with Pancasila, human rights, proportionality, and the rule of law. A customary settlement does not automatically extinguish state criminal jurisdiction, but it may be considered by judges in prosecution, sentencing, victim restoration, and the prevention of double punishment. Customary criminal law should therefore be understood as a controlled expansion of legal sources rather than an elimination of national codification.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the effectiveness of the role of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) as an out-of-court dispute resolution solution, identify obstacles in its implementation, and assess the alignment between normative regulations and their practical application within the Indonesian legal system. This study's method is a normative legal study with a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a case approach. Data were obtained through a literature study of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, and then analysed qualitatively prescriptively. The novelty of this research is focused on the development of ADR studies that not only discuss conventional mediation but also integrate the concept of online dispute resolution (ODR) as a form of ADR digitalisation, linked to the principles of restorative justice and its relevance in resolving customary land disputes in the region. The results of the study show that ADR has higher effectiveness compared to litigation in terms of time efficiency, cost, flexibility, and the ability to produce win-win solutions. However, the implementation of ADR still faces obstacles such as the low legal awareness of the community, the limited number of professional mediators and arbitrators, and the suboptimal execution of the agreement outcomes. The conclusion of this research is that ADR is an effective, fast, inexpensive, and substantively just dispute resolution mechanism. However, to optimise its role in the Indonesian legal system, it is necessary to strengthen regulations, improve the quality of human resources, and develop institutions and digitalisation through ODR so that access to justice can be broader and more responsive to the needs of society.

Abstract

Penerapan prinsip persamaan di hadapan hukum di ranah peradilan Indonesia masih kerap terbelenggu oleh formalisme legalistik yang mengabaikan ketimpangan relasi kuasa berbasis gender, sehingga putusan pengadilan yang netral secara tekstual kerap memproduksi ketidakadilan substantif bagi kelompok rentan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keterkaitan doktrinal antara hak asasi manusia dan urgensi rekonsiliasi gender serta merumuskan rekonstruksi model ajudikasi peradilan yang berorientasi pada keadilan substantif. Penelitian hukum doktrinal ini menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan memadukan pendekatan perundang-undangan (statute approach), pendekatan konseptual (conceptual approach), pendekatan analitis (analytical approach), dan pendekatan kasus (case approach). Bahan hukum primer dan sekunder dianalisis secara kualitatif melalui teknik interpretasi sistematis, evaluasi koherensi normatif, serta penalaran deduktif-preskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa formalisme yudisial memicu disparitas putusan akibat adanya bias patriarkal dalam perumusan premis silogisme hukum hakim. Rekonstruksi model rekonsiliasi gender berbasis keadilan substantif memerlukan pembaharuan nalar yudisial melalui tiga pilar: dekonstruksi bias gender dalam premis pembuktian fakta, penerapan diskresi afirmatif (affirmative adjudication) yang mengedepankan pemulihan hak korban secara utuh (restitutio in integrum), serta keberanian melakukan terobosan hukum (judicial activism) yang berakar pada konstitusionalisme hak asasi manusia. Integrasi ini memposisikan peradilan bukan sekadar sebagai pelaksana undang-undang prosedural, melainkan institusi penegak martabat manusia yang berkeadilan emansipatif.
