Abstract

This study explores crime prevention using legal semiotics, applying a doctrinal approach grounded in an extensive literature review and critical text analysis. The discussion is initiated by delineating the core principles of legal semiotics and examining legal norms and practices as sign systems that communicate cultural meanings and influence behaviour. The study examines forensic semiotics, emphasising the role of sign analysis in enhancing investigative procedures and expert linguistic testimony within criminal and civil frameworks, including authorship attribution, identification of falsified texts, and the interpretation of linguistic evidence. Additionally, courtroom discourse and decision-making are also examined, illustrating various semiotic resources (such as text design, layout, and language) influencing the authority and legitimacy of judicial outcomes. Police interactions, interpreting interview dynamics and power negotiations through semiotic frameworks are examined to enhance understanding of witness communication and investigative effectiveness. Furthermore, it examines the framing of crime narratives in the media, highlighting the impact of mediated signs on public perception and the possibility of judicial biases. The research advocates for comprehensive crime prevention policies combining penal and non-penal strategies, emphasizing the importance of symbols and meanings that underpin criminal behaviour to promote collaborative, culturally informed, and sustainable responses.

Abstract

This study seeks to determine and examine the position of Emergency Law within the context of Legal Studies and the presence of Emergency Law within the Indonesian Legal System. This study employs a normative legal methodology. The normative legal research approach investigates the law internally, with legal norms as the study object. Government Regulation in Lieu of Law is required if a country is confronted with an urgent and compelling situation that necessitates swift action. For this reason, while issuing Government Regulations in Lieu of Laws, the President implements them by the Constitution, legislative oversight, and, of course, the oversight of the people as sovereigns. The outcomes demonstrated.
