Abstract

The election of village heads is one form of democracy in the village. The concept of democracy is what provides the basis and mechanism of power based on the principle of equality and human equality. Democracy places humans as the owners of sovereignty which is then known as the principle of people's sovereignty. To fulfill the rights of each human being cannot be achieved by each person individually, but must be together. Along with the rapid development and construction as an impact of globalization, the phenomenon of thuggery has emerged as one of the negative impacts that occur indirectly from the development of globalization. The phenomenon of the emergence of political thuggery must be prevented as early as possible by all existing political forces, and political parties are actually most responsible for the emergence of this political thuggery, especially for political parties, either directly or indirectly, which encourage the emergence of mass action and the plundering of government power.

Abstract

Law Number 8 of 1981 established the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) as the foundation of Indonesia's criminal justice system. However, the Criminal Procedure Code faces significant challenges in maintaining relevance to contemporary legal and societal developments, particularly regarding victim recovery, functional differentiation among law enforcement institutions, and the protection of suspects’ and defendants’ procedural rights. This research aims to evaluate the Criminal Procedure Code's effectiveness in addressing these challenges and propose reforms to create a more inclusive and effective criminal justice system. Employing normative descriptive and juridical-analytical methodologies, the study examines relevant legal provisions and identifies practical solutions. The key findings highlight the Criminal Procedure Code’s inadequacies in facilitating restorative justice for victims, its lack of clear institutional coordination mechanisms, and barriers to procedural rights accessibility for suspects and defendants. The research contributes by advocating for revisions to the Criminal Procedure Code to incorporate restorative justice principles for victim recovery, strengthen coordination among law enforcement agencies, and enhance the accessibility of procedural rights for suspects and defendants. These reforms aim to enhance the efficiency of the legal system and deliver substantive justice for all stakeholders involved.

Abstract

International agricultural disputes between foreign plantation businesses and indigenous Indonesians demonstrate the intricate relationship between customary, national, and international civil law. Customary law is acknowledged in Indonesian law, although formal legality that favors foreign investment hinders its application, often resulting in indigenous peoples losing access to customary land crucial to their economic and cultural well-being. This paper examines how international civil law affects multinational plantation firms' agricultural conflicts and their obligation to indigenous peoples. The research employs a normative and comprehensive-juridical approach, analyzing national rules, international legal documents like the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), and case studies. The findings reveal that the conflict between customary, national, and international civil law is the most significant barrier to resolving these disputes. Foreign firms often advocate for international arbitration, which undermines local and indigenous mechanisms. The absence of harmonization between customary practices, national legal frameworks, and international standards further complicates determining the applicable law. Additionally, while international corporate responsibility norms like the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights exist, foreign companies frequently disregard their social obligations to indigenous communities. The study contributes to the field by emphasizing the need for harmonized legal frameworks and proposing practical solutions, including strengthening the recognition and enforcement of customary law, implementing Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) mechanisms, and embedding international principles into national policies. These measures aim to achieve equitable resolutions by balancing economic development with indigenous rights and environmental sustainability, offering a model for resolving cross-border agrarian disputes in similar contexts.

Abstract

In order to address the persistent issues of complexity and inefficiency in Indonesia's judicial system, reforms to civil procedural legislation aim to enhance accessibility and streamline processes. This study examines the effectiveness of these reforms, focusing on challenges such as overly formal procedures and insufficient human and technological resources, using a normative descriptive and juridical-analytical methodology. The findings highlight the positive impact of innovations like e-court systems in simplifying litigation processes, though the success of these reforms hinges on addressing technical infrastructure, enhancing judicial human resource capabilities, and fostering a transformative shift in legal culture. Practical implications of this research include providing actionable insights for policymakers to prioritize investments in technology and training, ensuring that procedural reforms benefit all societal segments, including rural and marginalized communities. The study contributes to the justice system by offering a blueprint for creating a more inclusive, efficient, and people-centered judiciary in Indonesia, fostering greater public trust and procedural fairness.
