Abstract

Ideally, the judicial review of regulations by the Constitutional Court aims to ensure the conformity of regulations with the constitution and protect human rights. The Constitutional Court has the authority to test the constitutionality of regulations, but in practice, there are challenges such as procedural complexity and institutional independence. This study aims to compare the function of judicial review by the Constitutional Court in Indonesia, the United States, and Austria. This article is classified as a literature review using a normative legal study approach. The methodology employed is a comparative study. The research results show that although all three countries have regulatory review bodies, there are differences in the process and structure of the institutions. The Indonesian Constitutional Court has a broad role, while the U.S. Supreme Court focuses on specific regulations, and in Austria, the review is conducted by a specialized court with a narrower focus.

Abstract

The reformulation of articles concerning adultery and cohabitation in the new Criminal Code (Law No. 1 of 2023) raises fundamental questions regarding how Islamic values can be harmonized with national criminal law without undermining legal certainty and the protection of individual rights. This study aims to analyze the mechanisms for harmonizing Islamic values within the new Criminal Code, particularly in the articles on adultery and cohabitation, as well as to assess the relevance of legal politics in regulating public morality. The study employs a qualitative-descriptive approach with content analysis, relying on primary legal documents and secondary legal literature. The analysis is conducted thematically to evaluate the extent to which the new Criminal Code provides legal certainty, substantive justice, and protection of individual rights. The findings indicate the existence of a political compromise pattern reflected in the adjustment of sanctions, limitations in the scope of law enforcement, and interactions among legislators, law enforcement officers, and religious stakeholders. This study confirms that the new Criminal Code functions as an adaptive and proportional legal instrument, with significant implications for legal politics in Indonesia, particularly in harmonizing public aspirations, constitutional principles, and societal moral norms.
