Abstract

The lack of Legal Aid Implementers compared to Legal Aid Recipients is expected to hamper access to justice for the poor. Therefore this research aims to provide space for Paralegals especially in the Law Faculty of UNNES to be able to provide free legal assistance outside the court of the poor in Central Java. This research will at least discuss two issues, namely 1) How is the existence of the Law Faculty UNNES Paralegal in a juridical and institutional manner in providing Legal Aid? and 2) What is the role of the Paralegal Faculty of Law at UNNES in providing Legal Aid to the poor in Central Java ?. The method used in this research is sociological juridical with a qualitative approach. The results of this study indicate that currently Paralegals can only carry out non-litigation Legal Aid. This happened because the Supreme Court based on Decision Number 22 P / HUM / 2018 had canceled the Paralegal's role in litigation. The role of Paralegals from UNNES Law Faculty students is as a facilitator or intermediary in accommodating complaints of cases and consultation from Legal Aid recipients to be conveyed to Legal Aid Providers namely lecturers who are members of the Center for Legal Aid Study, while the role of Paralegals from UNNES Law Faculty alumni is as an assistant or who helps Advocates in carrying out non-litigation Legal Assistance such as mediation, consultation, negotiation, advocating cases outside the court and making trial files. The provision of legal aid by the Paralegal is considered to be very helpful for Lecturers and Advocates in fulfilling access to justice for the poor.

Abstract

This study examines the use of the veto power by the United States within the United Nations Security Council and its impact on resolutions concerning the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Since 1972, the United States has exercised its veto 86 times, including 49 instances in which resolutions critical of Israel or calling for ceasefires were blocked. Employing a normative legal research methodology, this paper analyzes both the regulatory framework governing veto use and its practical application in this context. The findings indicate that the United States’ use of the veto reflects its strategic political interests and has significant implications for the dynamics of the conflict. In particular, the repeated exercise of this power has contributed to diplomatic stagnation, heightened regional tensions, and diminished the effectiveness of the United Nations Security Council in addressing conflicts in the Middle East. Furthermore, the study highlights the long-term consequences of United States foreign policy for Palestinian self-determination and underscores the structural challenges faced by the international community in pursuing an equitable and sustainable resolution. This research contributes to ongoing debates on the role of great power influence within multilateral institutions and emphasizes the need for institutional reforms to promote greater fairness, accountability, and effectiveness in global governance.
