Abstract

Border area management entails navigating geographical complexity and socio-cultural diversity, necessitating a comprehensive approach that integrates security and welfare. This article highlights a paradigm shift from traditional to economic security, recognizing economic dependence as a potential national vulnerability. Despite challenges like geographic remoteness and economic inequality, border regions are vital for economic growth. Using a conceptual approach, the article emphasizes the need to balance security and welfare through cross-border trade development and community empowerment. While Law Number 43 of 2008 aims to manage borders, unclear authority and regulatory overlap hinder effectiveness, compounded by military-focused defense strategies, limited budgets, and inadequate infrastructure. To address these issues, enhancing international cooperation, clarifying authority, and empowering communities through local wisdom are essential. Such empowerment is expected to bolster self-esteem, reduce economic dependency, and strengthen economic security, emphasizing the importance of balancing protection with economic development. Strategies like expanding trade zones and enhancing social capital, alongside infrastructure development and improved social services, are crucial for ensuring access and fostering the welfare of border communities.

Abstract

The discourse surrounding corruption as an international crime is increasingly urgent, as it transcends national borders and contributes to economic crises, conflicts, and various crimes that threaten global security. Scholars such as Christensen (2017), Peters (2018), Davis (2018), and Rothe (2010) have linked corruption to human rights violations, revealing that states often struggle to address it effectively. This research seeks to explore how corruption can be redefined as an international crime and what legal accountability mechanisms exist for perpetrators within international law, while also examining the opportunities for the international community to recognize corruption as an international crime. The findings suggest that corruption crimes impacting security, human rights, and environmental integrity, particularly in contexts where states are unable or unwilling to act, should be classified as international crimes, necessitating a global commitment to amend the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) accordingly. Furthermore, the potential for universal jurisdiction over corruption is explored, whether through amending the 1998 Rome Statute or establishing an ad hoc international tribunal, although significant obstacles remain due to states’ commitments to their sovereignty and criminal jurisdiction.

Abstract

Climate change has triggered massive migrations known as climate refugees, individuals who have been forced to leave their homes due to natural disasters and deteriorating environmental conditions. However, the legal vacuum protecting climate refugees is an urgent issue. This article discusses the need to establish new conventions or protocols that specifically regulate the status and safety of refugees due to climate change. The research method is a normative juridical approach analysing applicable legal regulations and relevant case studies. The new convention should clearly define climate refugees, establish their fundamental rights, and affirm the principle of non-refoulement to protect them from deportation to dangerous areas. In addition, the state's responsibility in providing protection and funding mechanisms must also be regulated. While challenges such as disagreements between countries and a lack of awareness remain, global initiatives show progress toward better protection for climate refugees. As such, it is hoped that the new legal framework can provide legal clarity and ensure that the rights of climate refugees are recognised and protected internationally.

Abstract

This article examines the legal and geopolitical implications of South Africa's unprecedented lawsuit against Israel for genocide in Gaza, brought before the International Court of Justice (ICJ). The conflict stems from longstanding tensions between Israel and Palestine, exacerbated during the October 7, 2023 crisis. South Africa's legal action alleges Israel's actions and omissions in Gaza constitute genocide under the 1948 Genocide Convention, citing evidence of extensive civilian casualties, particularly women and children. Israel, however, denies the accusations, attributing civilian deaths to Hamas and asserting its right to self-defense against rocket attacks. The ICJ's role as a peaceful dispute resolution forum is highlighted, emphasizing its authority to adjudicate disputes between nations and provide legal opinions. The research employs a normative legal approach, analyzing international law principles and regulations, using a case study methodology to explore the legal complexities of the case qualitatively. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the legal mechanisms governing international disputes and the potential impact of legal proceedings on conflict dynamics.

Abstract

The United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Working Group III (WG III) has been meeting intensively to formulate comprehensive reforms to Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) based on emerging criticisms. In July 2017, UNCITRAL established Working Group III with a mandate to identify and evaluate ISDS-related concerns, consider the need or desirability of reforms, and develop relevant solutions. Some of the issues that have been identified in relation to the current ISDS mechanism include lack of consistency and predictability of arbitral awards by ISDS forums, lack of independence and impartiality of arbitrators, cost and duration of proceedings, and third-party financing. The WG III forum has formulated several options to address these issues: 1) establishment of a court mechanism, 2) appointment of arbitrators and adjudicators, 3) parties' involvement and control, 4) dispute prevention and mitigation: strengthening dispute prevention and mitigation mechanisms, 5) cost management and third-party financing transparency: efforts to manage costs and related procedures, as well as transparency in third-party financing. The findings indicate that Indonesia actively participates in WG III by advocating for balanced reforms that safeguard state sovereignty and public interest while addressing investor rights. Key recommendations include enhancing transparency and leveraging regional alliances to strengthen Indonesia’s position in international investment frameworks.
