Abstract

The way society communicates has changed significantly as a result of advances in digital technology, particularly how ideas are expressed on social media. The rise in online defamation claims is one legal issue arising from the ease of access to information. The purpose of this essay is to examine the crime of defamation on social media from a legal perspective, using provisions from the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) and the Criminal Code (KUHP). Using a normative approach, it is found that the two legal instruments differ significantly in terms of the elements of the crime and their sanctions. Furthermore, it remains difficult for law enforcement to distinguish between insults and freedom of expression in defamation cases, particularly those related to criticism of public figures. To curb such violations, this essay also emphasizes the importance of restorative justice strategies and improving digital literacy. Thus, in the digital age, it is crucial to strike a balance between safeguarding freedom of speech and preserving individual dignity.

Abstract

This study examines the legal protection of domestic workers (PRT) in Indonesia through the aspect of legal certainty. The study results indicate that legal protection for domestic workers remains very weak, due to the absence of specific regulations that explicitly regulate their status, rights, and obligations. Existing regulations, such as the Manpower Law, do not directly accommodate the needs of domestic workers because the long-initiated Domestic Worker Protection Bill has not yet been passed. This condition creates an uncertain legal position for domestic workers and makes them vulnerable to various forms of rights violations, exploitation, and violence. International comparisons show that Indonesia still lags behind in building a fair and inclusive protection system for domestic workers. Therefore, strategic steps are needed to develop comprehensive regulations and provide legal certainty to effectively protect the basic rights of domestic workers. This research is expected to contribute to the development of more just and sustainable legal policies for domestic workers in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper examines the annulment of arbitral awards within the Indonesian legal system as an extraordinary legal remedy that intersects with the principles of arbitral autonomy and final and binding effect. The background of the study is grounded in the growing reliance on arbitration as an efficient and autonomous mechanism for resolving commercial disputes, alongside emerging controversies arising from judicial intervention in annulment proceedings. This research employs a normative legal method, using statutory and conceptual approaches. The research stages include identifying legal issues, collecting and classifying relevant legal materials, conducting normative analysis, and drawing deductive conclusions. The results and discussion demonstrate that Law Number 30 of 1999 strictly limits annulment to procedural defects of a fundamental nature, such as document forgery, decisive new evidence, or fraud, and does not permit substantive review of arbitral awards. However, judicial practice reveals interpretative inconsistencies that risk distorting arbitral finality. The study concludes that annulment should function as a procedural safeguard to protect justice without undermining the essence of arbitration.

Abstract

This study examines the challenges and opportunities of arbitration in the digital era, focusing on the legal and practical perspectives of online dispute resolution in Indonesia. The research is motivated by the rapid development of information technology, which has transformed dispute resolution mechanisms through digital platforms, particularly in e-commerce transactions and cross-border contracts. This study employs a normative legal approach or doctrinal research, analyzing legislation, legal theory, academic literature, and jurisprudence related to digital arbitration. The research stages include problem identification, literature review, collection of primary and secondary data, and qualitative analysis to evaluate the challenges and benefits of digital arbitration. The findings indicate that while national regulations do not explicitly govern online arbitration, they provide a legal foundation through principles of party consent, arbitrator independence, and award recognition. Moreover, digital arbitration offers cost and time efficiency, procedural flexibility, broader access, and technological innovations, provided that fairness, confidentiality, and legal certainty are ensured through secure platforms and competent arbitrators.
