Abstract

The Constitutional Court Decision No. 46/PUU-VIII/2010 is a progressive step in upholding justice for out-of-wedlock children, especially in terms of the recognition of civil relations with biological fathers that were not previously legally recognized. The provisions in Article 43 paragraph (1) of Law No. 1 of 1974 limit the legal relationship of out-of-wedlock children only with their mother and family, thus causing injustice in access to inheritance rights. This article aims to juridically examine the changes in legal norms due to the decision and evaluate its implications for the inheritance system and legal protection of children. The method used is a normative juridical approach through the analysis of laws and regulations, legal doctrine, and jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court. The results of the study show that the Constitutional Court's decision has expanded the scope of civil relations between children out of wedlock and their biological fathers, opening up legitimate access to inheritance rights as long as it can be legally proven. This ruling removes previous normative discrimination and strengthens constitutional principles of equality before the law and the protection of children. Thus, this ruling is an important milestone in the reconstruction of the principle of justice in national family law

Abstract

Indonesia as a country that has problems in human trafficking, not only functions as a country of origin (source) and transit point for international human trafficking, but also as a country that receives victims. The increasing number of workers that is not accompanied by the availability of employment opportunities is a very complex problem to overcome. This research is a normative legal research, namely a legal study that positions law as a structured norm system. In Indonesian legal regulations, it has been regulated in Law No. 21 of 2007 concerning the Eradication of Criminal Acts of Human Trafficking related to legal accountability for criminal acts of human trafficking. This law also regulates the rights of victims to receive medical and social rehabilitation, repatriation, and reintegration that must be provided by the state, especially for those who experience physical, psychological, and social suffering due to the crime of human trafficking. Restitution prioritizes the perpetrator's responsibility for the impacts caused by the crime. Therefore, the main target is to handle all losses experienced by the victim.

Abstract

The Unity of Islam cleric's thinking is distinctive in determining legal provisions, especially in formal rituals. However, a different approach is used when discussing the shift in the role of housewives, which does not yet have a firm view from Islamic Unity scholars. This research uses descriptive analysis method by collecting data through observation, interviews, and documentation, as well as the main data source from the opinions of Islamic Unity scholars. The aim is to analyze the thoughts of Islamic Unity scholars on the changing social and economic roles of women as housewives. The results of the study were analyzed using an empirical juridical approach, gender equality theory, and the concept of family law reform from Tahir Mahmood. In conclusion, the Islamic Union scholars consider the role of women in family law as part of muamalah that can be developed progressively, while still paying attention to the principles of Islamic law. This thinking is socialized positively through various activities to the community, with the al-maslahah al-mursalah approach to maintain the principle of women's dual role as housewives, without equating all activities between men and women.

Abstract

The absence of tax insurance regulations in Law No. 40/2014 and POJK creates legal uncertainty that triggers post-M&A disputes. The unclear scope of “tax risk” coverage has the potential to increase the fiscal burden and losses of companies. This study aims to identify and analyze gaps in tax insurance regulations within the Indonesian legal framework. The results are expected to formulate recommendations for amendments to the Insurance Law, technical guidelines from the OJK-DJP, and standard policy clauses. The research method uses a normative legal approach with statutes, conceptual analysis, and case studies. This study found that the absence of specific regulations on tax insurance in the Insurance Law and POJK creates uncertainty regarding coverage after M&A. The lack of clarity in the definition of “tax risk” and the absence of mandatory clause guidelines trigger potential disputes and fiscal losses for businesses. Therefore, amendments to the Insurance Law, integrated technical guidelines from the OJK and DJP, and tax insurance contract standards are needed to ensure legal certainty and investment stability.

Abstract

Indonesia, as a multicultural country, has three coexisting inheritance law systems: customary law, Islamic law (through the Compilation of Islamic Law/KHI), and civil law (Civil Code). These three systems often exhibit fundamental differences in terms of normative foundations, inheritance mechanisms, and the values of justice they uphold. Through a maqashid syariah approach emphasizing protection of religion (dīn), life (nafs), intellect (‘aql), lineage (nasl), property (māl), and justice (‘adl), this study analyzes the common ground and gaps between customary and national inheritance law. The analysis reveals that while customary law seeks to preserve property and social structures, discriminatory practices and inadequate protection for vulnerable groups still exist. Conversely, the KHI, as part of national law, is more systematic in ensuring distributive justice, though it remains rigid and requires contextualization. This study recommends the importance of normative reconstruction through the compilation of standardized national customary inheritance law based on the values of maqashid and Pancasila, as a step toward an inclusive, fair, and sustainable inheritance law system.

Abstract

This research examines the rationality of criminalizing the practice of witchcraft in the framework of Indonesian criminal law after the enactment of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code. This law expressly regulates criminal acts based on the recognition of magical powers associated with witchcraft. The offence of witchcraft in the new Criminal Code raises various controversies such as the potential vagueness of the norm, difficulty of proof, and implications for freedom of expression as well as the potential for arbitrary criminalization. Many have criticized the irrationality of regulating witchcraft, which is rooted in mystical beliefs, consciously drawn by the legislators into a rational legal framework. How can a practice that is considered irrational be regulated by law based on rationality and logic? Using normative juridical research method, this study unravels the witchcraft controversy in the new Criminal Code while explaining the legal framework and punishment policy contained in Article 252 of the Criminal Code. Through philosophical deepening and comparative studies, this study critically examines the aspects of norm coherence with the principle of legality, scientific proof efforts, as well as its effectiveness in dealing with social impacts. The purpose of this study is to analyze the rationale behind the establishment of Article 252 of the Criminal Code as an instrument to criminalize the practice of witchcraft. The results of this study conclude that Article 252 of the Criminal Code is a rational legal instrument. This article also reflects a paradigm shift in punishment that is not merely repressive, but educative and preventive so that the Indonesian criminal law system is able to respond to the irrational practice of witchcraft.

Abstract

Waste management is a major challenge in the city of Bandung due to the increasing volume of domestic waste and rapid urbanization. One of the efforts to overcome this problem is through a community-based waste bank program which aims to reduce the amount of waste and provide economic benefits for residents. This study aims to analyze the waste bank optimization model in increasing the effectiveness of sustainable waste management and its impact on the socio-economic welfare of the community. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data was collected through in-depth interviews with three waste bank managers in the city of Bandung. The results of the study show that the main obstacles in the management of waste banks include limited funding, low community participation, and lack of supportive regulations. Therefore, the proposed optimization model includes three main strategies: diversification of funding sources through partnerships with the private sector and economic incentives for the community, increasing the capacity of human resources in the operational management of waste banks, and strengthening policies and government support in the provision of clearer infrastructure and regulations. By implementing this strategy, the waste bank can further contribute to sustainable waste management and improve the socio-economic welfare of the community in the city of Bandung.   .

Abstract

The Consumer Dispute Settlement Agency is essential in regulating standard clauses in consumer contracts and adjudicating conflicts between consumers and businesses. This paper analyses BPSK's jurisdiction, efficacy, and obstacles in overseeing standard clauses, which are frequently formulated unilaterally by commercial entities and may prejudice consumers. This study employs a normative legal research methodology alongside Socio-Legal Research to examine the legislative framework regulating BPSK and the practical difficulties encountered in overseeing unfair standard clauses. Research reveals that BPSK encounters substantial challenges, such as inadequate resources, minimal consumer knowledge, ineffective enforcement mechanisms, and the intricacies of digital transactions. The agency is devoid of the authority to enforce direct sanctions, depending instead on mediation, conciliation, and arbitration. Consequently, numerous enterprises persist in incorporating inequitable clauses in contracts without encountering significant repercussions, thereby diminishing the overall efficacy of consumer protection initiatives. Moreover, the proliferation of e-commerce and digital transactions introduces new issues, as typical provisions in online agreements frequently exhibit complexity and lack transparency, thereby complicating customer scrutiny.

Abstract

All around the world, children face various forms of exploitation, violence, and human rights violations. This study aims to analyze child rights protection within the internasional legal framework and its implementation at the national level. The main focus the study is to explore the challenges faced by countries, especially developing countries, in implementing child rights protection, as well as the role of internasional organizations in supporting these efforts. The method used is a normative juridical approach that analyzes various internasional legal instruments relating to children’s rights and how countries integrate them into their domestic legal systems. This study also conducts a comparative analysis between countries that have successfully implemented child protection and countries that face significant obstacles. The novelty of this study is due to the in-depth analysis of the discrepancies between internasional legal norms and local customs, as well as the identification of workable solutions to address these gaps. The results show that while the internasional legal framework has provided a solid foundation, implementation at the nasional level still faces various obstacles, especially development by providing strategic recommendations for policymakers and internasional organizations to strengthen child protection systems worldwide.
