Abstract

This article discusses the phenomenon of legal instrumentalization in Indonesian constitutional practice and its implications for democratic resilience, by highlighting the political thinking of Mahfud MD. Through the approach  of doctrinal legal research and normative analysis, this study found that the law is often used as an instrument of power by the dominant political configuration, thereby weakening the principles of judicial independence and constitutional supremacy. In this context, Mahfud MD's idea of responsive legal politics becomes relevant to uphold the law as a means of substantive justice, not just a tool of power legitimization. This study then relates this framework to the principles  of maqāṣid al-sharī'ah in Islamic law, especially in the aspects of the maintenance of justice (ḥifẓ al-'adl), reason (ḥifẓ al-'aql), and the public benefit (maṣlaḥah 'āmmah). The integration of the two shows that strengthening democracy requires a political reconstruction of the law based on Islamic ethical values, namely the balance between power, justice, and moral responsibility of state administrators. This study recommends the need for a national legal design that is oriented towards substantive justice and the protection of human rights as a form of application of maqāṣid al-sharī'ah in the democratic legal system in Indonesia.

Abstract

Judicial corruption within the Indonesian judiciary represents a profound moral crisis that undermines public trust in legal institutions. This study examines the Bandung District Court Decision Number 23/Pid.Sus-TPK/2023/PN.Bdg against Sudrajad Dimyati, a Supreme Court justice convicted of bribery, through the lens of Immanuel Kant's moral philosophy. Rather than employing conventional legal-formal analysis, this research adopts a deontological ethical approach to evaluate whether the court's verdict fulfilled substantive justice principles. The research investigates two primary questions: (1) Whether the judicial decision satisfies Kantian principles of justice regarding universality, respect for dignity, moral autonomy, and procedural fairness; and (2) How Kant's moral philosophy can inform the development of judicial professional ethics codes in Indonesian courts. This qualitative investigation employs document analysis and philosophical content analysis of the case decision and relevant moral philosophy literature. Findings demonstrate that while the verdict adhered to formal positive law requirements, significant tensions emerged regarding consistency of legal precedent when the appellate court reduced sentences based on humanitarian grounds. Most critically, the institutional system has not yet internalized moral autonomy and universal ethical principles as foundational to judicial governance. This research concludes that implementing four Kantian principles—universality, respect for dignity, moral autonomy, and procedural justice—establishes essential foundations for deontological ethics-based institutional reform of the Indonesian judicial system.

Abstract

Transformasi ekonomi digital telah membawa perubahan signifikan dalam lanskap sosial dan ketenagakerjaan di Indonesia, menghadirkan pekerja gig seperti sopir taksi online yang kerap terpapar kerentanan hukum dan sosial. Salah satu kasus menonjol ialah Haryono, sopir taksi online yang menjadi pelapor utama pembunuhan oleh oknum aparat, namun justru berujung kriminalisasi dan intimidasi. Permasalahan utama yang diangkat adalah bagaimana relasi kuasa antara aparat penegak hukum dan pelapor warga sipil mempersempit akses keadilan dan perlindungan hukum, serta seberapa efektif mekanisme mobilisasi hukum dapat memberikan saluran perlindungan dan kepastian hukum bagi korban atau saksi dalam konteks institusi peradilan yang disfungsional. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan metode sosiologi hukum kritis, membedah kasus Haryono melalui teori konflik sosial Marx dan teori mobilisasi hukum Jeff Handmaker & Sanne Taekema. Data diperoleh dari berita, dokumen hukum, serta literatur ilmiah relevan, lalu dianalisis secara reflektif dan interpretatif. Hasil temuan menunjukkan bahwa struktur kekuasaan institusional secara sistematis menghalangi akses keadilan bagi pelapor sipil, memperkuat budaya impunitas dan stigmatisasi terhadap whistleblower. Mobilisasi hukum masyarakat sipil, berperan penting sebagai counterpower dalam menantang status quo dan membuka ruang perlawanan terhadap praktik ketidakadilan. Namun, efektivitasnya sangat bergantung pada solidaritas sosial serta keberhasilan merebut kembali makna hukum demi perlindungan hak asasi di ruang publik.
