Abstract

In the era of Society 5.0, characterized by the pervasive digitalization of societal functions, platform service providers play a pivotal role. These platforms, however, are frequently exploited by users for unlawful activities. This study investigates the prerequisites for invoking the safe harbor principle, which shields service providers from criminal liability. Employing a qualitative research approach, secondary data was gathered through a comprehensive literature review and subsequently analyzed qualitatively. The safe harbor principle serves as a critical legal mechanism utilized by platform service providers to shield themselves from legal repercussions arising from illicit actions committed by their users. To qualify for this exemption, providers typically must promptly remove unlawful content upon notification and refrain from active involvement in the transmission of such information. However, recent developments indicate that providers may forfeit safe harbor protection if they play a significant role in moderating or curating content on their platforms. This research underscores the essential conditions that platform service providers must meet to avail themselves of the safe harbor principle, highlighting the nuanced balance between facilitating digital innovation and upholding legal accountability. By clarifying these conditions amidst evolving regulatory landscapes, this study contributes to ongoing discussions on legal frameworks governing digital platforms, offering insights crucial for policymakers, legal practitioners, and stakeholders navigating the intersection of technology, law, and societal governance.

Melalui Undang-Undang Nomor 11 Tahun 2012, Indonesia menekankan pendekatan Restorative Justice dan mekanisme diversi sebagai upaya mencegah sitgma serta mendorong reintegrasi sosial anak pelaku tindak pidana. Meski demikian, praktiknya masih terkendala keterbatasan pemahaman aparat, fasilitas rehabilitas yang minim, serta pandangan masyarakat yang cenderung retributif. Penelitian ini menelaah Peran Pembimbing Kemasyarakatan dalam Proses Diversi Kasus Anak Pelaku Tindak Pidana di Kota Semarang ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran Pembimbing Kemasyarakatan (PK) di  Balai Pemasyarakatan Kelas I Semarang dalam mendukung efektivitas diversi, tantangan implementasi, serta kontribusinya bagi pemulihan sosial anak yang berhadapan dengan hukum di lingkungan perkotaan.

Abstract

NCBAF as emerged as a strategic legal instrument for recovering state losses arising from corruption, particularly in jurisdictions where conviction-based mechanisms prove ineffective. In Indonesia, the recovery of assets obtained through corruption remains heavily dependent on final and binding criminal judgments, a requirement that often delays asset confiscation and creates opportunities for offenders to conceal, transfer, or dissipate illicit assets. This study examines the weaknesses of the existing asset forfeiture framework within the Indonesian legal system and analyzes the urgency of adopting NCBAF as an alternative mechanism for recovering state losses in corruption cases. Employing normative legal research, this study adopts statutory and conceptual approaches through an analysis of national legislation and relevant international standards, particularly the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC). The findings demonstrate that the current conviction-based asset forfeiture regime is inadequate to address situations in which perpetrators have fled, died, or transferred assets to third parties. NCBAF, which operates through an in rem approach and focuses on the illicit origin of assets rather than the criminal liability of individuals, offers significant potential to accelerate asset recovery and close existing legal loopholes. The study concludes that comprehensive and clearly formulated regulations governing NCBAF are urgently required to strengthen Indonesia’s anti-corruption framework, enhance the effectiveness of state loss recovery, and ensure legal certainty while upholding due process of law.

Abstract

In addition to analyzing the role of victims in the process, this study compares the implementation of restorative justice in Indonesia's New Criminal Code (KUHP) with developing practices in Australia. Using a legislative and comparative law perspective, this study uses a normative legal technique. According to research, Law No. 1 of 2023's restorative justice measures represent a paradigm change from a retributive to a restorative approach. Nevertheless, these clauses are still mostly normative and lack thorough implementation methods. Australia, on the other hand, has created a restorative justice system that is more integrated and structured, giving victims greater chances to participate in the case settlement process. According to this study, victims play a more active and significant role in Australia, but in Indonesia, their position is still relatively limited because there are no specific regulations. A careful examination also identifies implementation issues, including ambiguous standards, possible discrepancies in application, and constraints on the ability of law enforcement personnel. Additionally, the implementation of restorative justice has strategic implications for advancing the global agenda established by the United Nations through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially Goal 16 on justice, peace, and institutional building. Therefore, in order to guarantee the successful implementation of restorative justice in Indonesia while assisting in the development of a just and sustainable judicial system, it is required to strengthen subsidiary rules, institutions, and human resource capability.

Abstract

Cybercrime presents a significant challenge to traditional legal frameworks, particularly classical criminal law principles such as legality (nullum crimen sine lege), culpability, and proportionality. This study explores the extent to which these foundational principles remain relevant and applicable in Indonesia’s approach to cybercrime. Drawing upon legal doctrinal analysis and statutory review, as well as selected court decisions involving cyber defamation, hacking, and data theft, the research critically assesses how classical principles are being interpreted and adapted in digital contexts. The findings reveal a complex legal landscape: while the principles of legality and culpability continue to serve as cornerstones of criminal justice, ambiguities in cybercrime legislation and expansive interpretations by courts may undermine legal predictability and individual protections. For instance, the broad language of the Electronic Information and Transactions (EIT) Law often clashes with the requirement of specificity in criminal law. This study argues that a careful recalibration of classical doctrines is needed—one that maintains legal safeguards while allowing flexibility in addressing evolving digital harms. The novelty of the research lies in its re-examination of enduring criminal law theories in light of contemporary challenges, offering doctrinal and policy insights for reform. As cybercrime grows more sophisticated, ensuring that criminal law remains principled yet adaptable is both a legal and ethical imperative.
