Core Subject : Social,
LEGAL scholars have been discussing two important roles of law: social control and social engineering. As a social control, law is designed and introduced to control the behaviours of society members in accordance with particular values and norms agreed upon by the community. In this context, the law has a power to sanction and punish the unlawful members of society. As a social engineering, law is intended to create an ideal society in accordance with, again, particular values and norms agreed upon by the community. Hence, law is not for law. Law is created to serve human beings. Law is introduced for the well-being of the society members. As the law is for human, and human’s situations and problems are changing, then law also needs to change and adapt to the context of the times. Here, the concept of legal reform is a key. Every society, including the Indonesian society, sometimes needs to reform the law to make it more relevant and suitable for the needs of the society.

Abstract

The accountability system for elected officials in Indonesia is inherently linked with the electoral system that is applied to unravel the problem in the context of a symmetrical system of people's sovereignty. This article analyzes the dynamics of the current regulations on the accountability system of elected officials. However, this article would only focus on the accountability system for regional leaders (governor, mayor and regent), regional legislators (DPRD) and the senatorial regional delegates (DPD) in Indonesia and the participation of constituencies in proposing a recall system. The purpose of this research is to construct an accountability mechanism for regional heads, DPRD and DPD to their constituents that are appropriate and in line with the electoral system applied in Indonesia. This research is expected to be a material for consideration for policy makers and the Indonesian people in general in designing an accountability system for elected officials that is appropriate and in line with the applied electoral system. To do such, this article is based on a descriptive study. Keywords: accountability, horizontal and vertical politics, direct democracy, elected officials, recall, Indonesian election

Abstract

Basically, every country is obliged to ensure quality education without discrimination against every citizen, including Indonesia. Recognition of the right to education is so important that it becomes one of the goals of the state as stated in the Preamble of the 1945 Constitution, namely to educate the nation's life. However, since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world, the education sector has also been affected. People have no choice, but to implement the Covid-19 prevention habits and protocols. In the case of Indonesia, the government has closed the schools and universities since mid-March 2020 and switched to the online learning system. In this article, the author will explain the Indonesia’s legal policy in fulfilling the community’s right to education during pandemic, at the same time analyzing how government responds to the public demands. This normative legal research is conducted using a conceptual and statutory approach, which will then be analyzed descriptive-qualitatively. The result shows that educational policies during COVID-19 pandemic can be divided into two phases: early pandemic and new normal transition. In the first phase, the government focused on protecting the health and safety to all communities in the education institution areas by implementing certain protocols, closing the schools and switching to distance/online learning. Although public health and safety are top priorities, the policies resulted in disparities among students. While in the new normal transition phase, The government tends to respond to public demands on education problems by loosening its policies a little through schools disclosure and providing the internet support in online learning

Abstract

The issue of human rights in Indonesia towards the 21st century has shifted from violations committed by the government during the new order to the issue of human rights violations by multinational companies (corporate crime), because of natural resources exploitation is directly proportional to the increase in human rights violations. Many cases of human rights violations by business actors that occur in the form of annexation and seizure of indigenous peoples land that occurs every year. One of the causes of the many cases of human rights violations against indigenous peoples is due to the loosening of permits given by the government to companies wishing to exploit natural resources. Strengthening the Permits principle can be used as a strategic step in reducing the number of violations of poverty that occur to indigenous peoples. Permits used as a means of controlling human behavior which results in rights and obligations born of licenses.

Abstract

This article analyzes outsourcing job practice in contemporary business activities in Indonesia, focusing on types and factors that contribute to human rights abuse in the outsourcing business, based on academic literature and regulations on business and human rights. In today's Indonesian labor market, outsourcing jobs are a kind of phantom. Laborers risked not receiving adequate wages, work insurance, or equal bargaining power with the outsourcing company under this job recruitment system. Laborers' associations protested almost every May Day moment, demanding that the outsourcing job system be abolished. They also demanded to be hired directly by the company rather than by the outsourcing firm. Unfortunately, the government responded to the demand by enacting the Workforce Act No. 13 of 2013. This law endorsed outsourcing with specific requirements that provide clear guidance for both employers and employees. However, in practice, companies frequently break outsourcing roles by hiring workers to staff their core business activities. On the other hand, outsourcing corporations also violate the Act's basic rights for outsourcing laborers. As a result, it implies human rights violations. Laborers were frequently threatened with losing their right to a healthy working environment, being fired from their contract without consultation, and having their fundamental rights violated. Human rights violations in outsourcing job activities are primarily caused by a lack of government oversight and law enforcement.

Abstract

The clash between bankruptcy and criminal proceedings is one of the obstacles which has been long faced by law enforcement officials. One of many examples of the intersection of the two proceedings is the case between the Bankruptcy Trustees of KSP Pandawa Mandiri Group dan Nuryanto with Depok District Attorneys. The case caused issues with the confiscated assets that were the objects in the bankruptcy and criminal court decisions. It stemmed from the conflict between provisions in Indonesian Bankruptcy Act and Criminal Procedure Code. This Note was conducted to analyze the judges' judicial decision-making concerning the three aspects of legal certainty, justice and utility as one way to resolve the conflict of norms. Generally, the Commercial Court and Supreme Court decisions have complied with the regulations of the prevailing laws and legal principles. However, the judgments are still not comprehensive and not quite right in the decisions. The Panel of Judges should not only stick on the legal certainty aspect but also the justice and utility aspects. Concerning the three aspects, the bankruptcy assets in the case should be handed over to the Bankruptcy Trustees.

Abstract

This paper is intended as a historical research study on renewal business through technical codification of Islamic law (Taqnin) as well as theoretical implications of the legislation (Tashri’) of Islamic law through the political authorities called parliament. The authors conclude that taqnin and tashri’ as an instrument of reform in Islamic Law is not something new from if analyzed from a historical perspective. This has been initiated in the past at least by Daulah Abbasiya in the Second Century Hijriyah or Eighth AD, but failed because of a conflict between the political authority (umara) and religion (ulama) in fighting authority of the establishment of Islamic law. This issue over and over again when codification movement and legislation of Islamic law in the modern era has theoretically implicated and it is a rare phenomenon that should be more deeply considering the renewal of Islamic law which is ongoing it contains at least one millennium old historical value.
