Abstract

This article examines the reform of the minimum marriage age in Indonesia through Muhammad Syahrur’s ḥudūd theory and its implications for contemporary Islamic legal epistemology. While previous studies have largely discussed Law No. 16 of 2019 from the perspectives of gender equality, child protection, and positive law, limited attention has been given to how this reform may be theoretically justified within a dynamic framework of Islamic legal reasoning. Using normative legal research, this study combines statutory, conceptual, and Islamic legal-theoretical approaches. It compares Law No. 1 of 1974 and Law No. 16 of 2019 and interprets the reform through Syahrur’s theory of limits, supported by relevant legal materials and scholarly literature. The study finds that raising and equalizing the minimum marriage age reflects not merely a legislative response to social problems, but also an epistemological shift in Islamic family law from rigid textualism toward contextual legal construction. Within Syahrur’s framework, the state’s determination of marriage age represents human ijtihād operating within divine boundaries, where legal norms may be adjusted to protect welfare, maturity, equality, and social justice. The article argues that the reform embodies an adaptive model of Islamic legal development that reconciles scriptural normativity with changing social realities. It contributes to debates on Islamic family law reform by showing that Syahrur’s ḥudūd theory offers a productive framework for legitimizing legal transformation without detaching Islamic law from its normative foundations.

Abstract

This study analyzes the legal protection of copyright for illustrations under Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright and Examines the Implications of Supreme Court Decision Number 988 K/Pdt.Sus-HKI/2021 on legal certainty in Indonesia. Illustrations, as works of fine art, are protected automatically once embodied in a tangible form and include both moral and economic rights of the creator. This research employs a normative juridical method, drawing on statutory and case law. Primary legal materials consist of copyright legislation and relevant court decisions, while secondary materials include legal literature, journals, and doctrines related to intellectual property law. The analysis is conducted qualitatively by interpreting legal norms and considering judicial considerations. The results show that Indonesian Copyright Law protects the principles of automatic protection, recognition of moral and economic rights, and preventive and repressive legal mechanisms. The Supreme Court emphasized that copyright recordation is not absolute proof of ownership if conducted in bad faith. Protection is granted only to parties who are legally and factually entitled to the work. The decision strengthens legal certainty by prioritizing good faith and substantive justice in copyright disputes.

Abstract

Diversion constitutes a mechanism for resolving juvenile criminal cases outside the formal criminal justice process through a restorative justice approach. This article examines the normative transformation of diversion for children in conflict with the law by comparing the old Indonesian Criminal Code with Law Number 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code. Under the old Criminal Code, diversion was not explicitly regulated, as the code was primarily oriented toward punishment, prosecution, and an adult-centered model of criminal liability. The regulation of diversion was therefore mainly developed through Law Number 11 of 2012 on the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. Law Number 1 of 2023 marks a significant shift by expressly placing diversion, measures, and penalties for children within the general structure of Indonesian criminal law. The new Criminal Code requires diversion to be attempted for offences punishable by imprisonment of less than seven years and that do not constitute recidivism, while also emphasizing non-custodial measures, child rehabilitation, and social reintegration. This development does not replace the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Law but strengthens its restorative logic by embedding child-sensitive principles into the national criminal law framework. The comparison shows a movement from punitive silence toward restorative codification, reflecting Indonesia's broader commitment to child protection, proportional accountability, recovery, and the best interests of children in conflict with the law.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of religion and godfatherism in sustaining political dominance in Nigeria, drawing upon survey data from 120 respondents across six geopolitical zones and 45 key informant interviews. The findings reveal that nearly half of respondents acknowledged religious influence on their voting behavior, while over half reported awareness of political godfathers in their communities. Regional and gender variations further demonstrate the uneven salience of religion in electoral mobilization, with northern states and female respondents showing greater susceptibility to clerical endorsements. Godfatherism remains entrenched, often overlapping with religious institutions through reciprocal patronage networks, while widespread practices of vote-buying reflect rational voter strategies under conditions of poverty and weak governance. The study concludes that religion and godfatherism constitute overlapping informal institutions that simultaneously provide electoral legitimacy yet undermine democratic accountability. Recommendations emphasize the need for electoral reforms, strengthened civic education, and inclusive economic policies to mitigate the enduring dominance of informal political structures and foster programmatic competition in Nigeria’s democracy.

Abstract

Ethical performance has become increasingly important in legislative institutions where integrity and accountability are essential for maintaining public trust. This study examines the mediating role of ethical climate in the relationship between ethical competence, organizational justice, and ethical performance. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 120 members of five Regional Houses of Representatives (DPRD) in South Kalimantan, Indonesia, through proportionate stratified sampling. The proposed model was analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings show that ethical competence and organizational justice positively influence ethical performance and ethical climate. Ethical climate emerged as the strongest predictor of ethical performance, while organizational justice had the greatest effect on ethical climate. In addition, ethical climate significantly mediates the effects of ethical competence and organizational justice on ethical performance. These findings indicate that the interaction between individual ethical capability, perceptions of fairness, and organizational conditions shapes ethical behavior in legislative institutions. The study enriches the ethical performance literature by integrating individual and organizational factors within a single framework.

Abstract

This article examines Madrasah Riset at MAN 1 Banyumas as a practice of institutional innovation in contemporary Islamic education. Rather than treating the research-madrasah program merely as a formal label or institutional branding, this study analyzes how research-oriented education is organized, routinized, and reproduced within everyday school practices. Using a qualitative fieldwork design, data were collected through interviews, non-participant observation, and documentation involving the principal, vice principal for curriculum, research teachers, and students. The data were reduced, coded, displayed, and interpreted through a sociological lens to understand the organizational transformation of the madrasah. The findings show that MAN 1 Banyumas has developed a research-based innovation ecosystem through the systematic reorganization of planning, student mapping, teacher allocation, mentoring, assessment, competition preparation, and publication of student achievements. These practices demonstrate that Madrasah Riset operates not only as a programmatic initiative but also as an institutional mechanism that shapes academic culture, teacher-student interaction, and students’ scientific habitus. The study contributes to Islamic education management, madrasah quality assurance, and research-based student development by showing how institutional innovation emerges through the alignment of policy, classroom routines, organizational communication, and mentoring practices.

Abstract

The interpretation of Quranic Surah An-Nisa: 34 in the classical exegetical tradition has given rise to a gender hierarchy that posits qiwamah as the permanent authority of men over women, an understanding that continues to influence social norms, Islamic family law, and gender relations in Muslim societies to this day. This article aims to deconstruct this hierarchical construct through an integrative, contextual hermeneutic approach, using Amina Wadud's thought as its primary methodological foundation. This study employs a qualitative, library-based research method with three stages of analysis: socio-historical, semantic-linguistic, and intra-textual. The results indicate that the gender hierarchy is formed through four hermeneutical mechanisms: the generalization of particular contexts, the naturalization of social constructs, intra-textual selectivity, and the transmission of the exegetes' androcentrism. A semantic-linguistic analysis of the terms qawwamah, faddhala, nusyuz, and dharaba reveals that the Qur'anic text does not support an absolute gender hierarchy; qawwamah is more accurately understood as a conditional and reciprocal functional responsibility. This study contributes to strengthening the epistemological foundation of inclusive gender exegesis. It offers an integrative hermeneutical model relevant to reforming Islamic family law and religious education in Indonesia.

Abstract

Political cadre performance is essential to the effectiveness and sustainability of political party organizations. This study examines the effects of transformational leadership, party culture, and workplace happiness on political cadre performance, with affective commitment as a mediating variable. Drawing on Social Exchange Theory, the study proposes that positive organizational experiences strengthen cadres’ emotional attachment to the party, thereby enhancing their performance. Data were collected from political cadres of party branch organizations in the 13 regencies and municipalities of South Kalimantan Province, Indonesia, and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that transformational leadership, party culture, and workplace happiness positively influence the performance of political cadres. Affective commitment also positively affects performance and mediates the relationships between the antecedent variables and political cadre performance. These findings extend the application of Social Exchange Theory to political party organizations and provide practical implications for strengthening cadre performance through effective leadership, supportive party culture, positive workplace experiences, and stronger affective commitment.
