Abstract

Theft  violates both  legal and religious norms  and it is a crime  under Islamic and Indonesian Criminal Law .  The study aims at comparing the regulation of theft both in Indonesia and in Islam. This normative legal research relies on secondary data and employs comparative approach. Comparison is made to explore the similarities and differences between Islamic criminal law and Indonesian criminal law with regard to theft especially on how this crime defined, the form of punishment , the requirement for imposing the punishments, and how effective are these punishment to deterring people from committing theft. The results of the study show that the use of imprisonment for theft as adopted in the Indonesian Penal Code seems to be ineffective for controlling theft cases. Hadd punishment as introduced in Islamic criminal law seems to be more promising for addressing the increasing number of theft cases. This is so because the application of cutting hand off not only prevents the thief to repeat the crime  but also  preventing others to do the same. Therefore, both special and general deterrence purposes are satisfied.

Abstract

The nature and scale of e-commerce are constantly changing. In today's world, the concept of internet purchasing became ubiquitous.

The term consumer protection refers to an umbrella term that encompasses many different aspects of economic transactions. The relevance of the law rests in the fact that the regulation works to protect individuals and the rights they are entitled to. In spite of the significance they have, customers frequently find themselves victimized by unethical commercial activities. This article describes the proliferation of E-commerce and the legal protection of the e-consumers who conduct buying and selling transactions, particularly in the TikTok Shop platform. This normative legal research relies on secondary data and employs both statutory and comparative approach. The finding shows that China has established a new law to safeguard and maximize a healthy shopping environment on an e-commerce platform. On the other side, Indonesia has not had a specific regulation for e-commerce yet, accordingly the legal protection for Tik Tok Shop buyers relies to the existing law, namely the Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection.The nature and scale of e-commerce are constantly changing.

Abstract

The prominent subject of discussion within the context of the ASEAN Economic Community is the harmonization of competition law in the region (AEC). In order to remove and reduce potential barriers to economic activity, ASEAN has adopted free trade through economic integration among its member nations. This study aims to examine why it is crucial to harmonize ASEAN competition law and to determine what the ASEAN business competition law harmonization model looks like. This paper used normative method with utilizing a statutory and a comparative approach which are presented descriptively. The results demonstrated that legal system conflicts can be addressed and legal disparities can be lessened by initiatives at harmonization. To do this, ASEAN must at the very least harmonize three key aspects of ASEAN Member States' competition laws: the substance of the law, law enforcement, and competition commission. In this context, collaboration amongst competition enforcement agencies can be used to implement the ASEAN model of harmonising competition legislation. Cooperation can take the form of notification, information sharing, enforcement cooperation between commissions, consultation, and conciliation.

Abstract

Legal protection of water resources is important as a rule and guidelines for human behavior as the purpose of the law to regulate public order. Legal developments regarding water resources need to be updated following the development of the community, so that the creation of legal protection for water resources can have an impact on water conservation.

Besides, it also explores the UK’s experience including the management and policy on the water exploitation. This study employed doctrinal legal research utilizing comparative, statutory, and conceptual approach. The discussion's findings demonstrate that the UK's approach to water management differs from Indonesia's. A system of water privatization is used in UK water regulation. The UK places a high focus on service quality and access to clean water. Therefore, the government offers complaint services regarding water quality in order to regulate the performance of the private sector. The Consumers Council for Water (CCWater) also provides assistance to consumers in homes and businesses.

This study used normative juridical legal research. The results of study show that National Collective Management Institute (NCMI) and Music Rights Malaysia Berhad (MRM) have the same characteristics, namely as independent institutions and have attributive authority to take legal action against Music copyright violations. Furthermore, MRM has a narrower range of royalty collection than NCMI. In addition, MRM has no obligation to mediate if the case is a civil case. Besides, legal efforts that can be carried out by NCMI and MRM can be through the realm of criminal or casuistry litigation or arbitration.

Abstract

The Taliban takeover of Afghanistan on August 15, 2021, triggered a significant refugee crisis. By mid-2022, 2.8 million Afghan refugees were registered internationally, primarily in Pakistan and Iran, and by 2023, 4.3 million Afghans were internally displaced. Many at-risk Afghans were left behind as US-led forces withdrew. Despite resettlement efforts, many threatened by the Taliban remain excluded, as the Taliban targets former military, NGO workers, and Afghan government officials. Daily migration to Iran and Pakistan surged, with many seeking refuge through Iran to Turkey and Europe. This paper examines whether the current refugee protection mechanism can manage this influx. Using a normative legal research method, it analyzes secondary data from books, journals, reports, and documents, providing historical context on Afghan politics and displacement. It critically evaluates the international refugee protection regime, identifying gaps and shortcomings, particularly the lack of a binding responsibility-sharing mechanism. This has resulted in poorer nations hosting a disproportionate number of refugees, necessitating a commitment from the international community to address this inequity. The paper concludes with policy recommendations to improve the global response to the Afghan refugee crisis, emphasizing the need for equitable responsibility-sharing to enhance protection for Afghan refugees.

Abstract

Nowadays, hybrid contracts are recognized as an adaptive form of contract in the implementation of Islamic business. However, the involvement of hybrid contracts in al-Rahn has risen numerous legal controversies in Islamic Sharia.  Malaysia and Indonesia  have diffferent approaches regarding the  use of hybrid contracts in al-Rahn scheme. In the light of that, this article aims to lay out the two countries’ sides in responding to the issue at hand. This qualitative  study  relies on secondary data and employs conceptual and comparative approach. It investigates the policies relating to hybrid contract in the implementation of al-Rahn both in Malaysia and Indonesia. This study indicates that academics in both countries tend to state that the hybrid contracts in al-Rahn are not in accordance with the Sharia. The non-compliance with the Sharia prompted Malaysia to create a new policy, namely by utilising the concept of Tawaruq. Meanwhile, Indonesia recently still associates Ijārah contracts as part of the implementation of al-Rahn.

Abstract

This research examines the phenomenon of revenge porn in the legal context of the United States and identifies important lessons for Indonesia. Using a multifaceted approach, this research explores legal definitions, sentencing, and protections for victims in various US states, as well as exploring the psychosocial impact of revenge porn on victims. This research utilizes normative legal methods by adopting statutory, conceptual, comparative, and futuristic approaches. The nature of this research is descriptive-prescriptive. The data that has been collected is analyzed using the content analysis method. The study found that there is significant variation in laws and approaches to handling revenge porn among states, reflecting differences in social values and legal priorities. For example, states such as California, New York, and Texas feature different definitions and penalties, as well as varying levels of protection for victims. Indonesia can draw valuable lessons from formulating its own legal strategy for this phenomenon. This research suggests the importance of specific legislation that clearly defines revenge porn, a flexible sentencing system that considers the context of individual cases, and strong psychosocial support for victims
