Abstract

This study analyzes labor law arrangements in Indonesia, Germany and United Kingdom, mainly how several countries protect digital platform workers. Furthermore, this research evaluates the implementation of such a law to advance labor law in Indonesia in protecting digital platforms workers. This research used normative legal analysis, employing a statutory, conceptual, and comparative approach with Germany and the United Kingdom. The results indicate that the dynamics of new employment status or partnership working relationships and workers’ flexibility in the gig economy phenomenon are not only found in Indonesia. Several countries, for example, Germany and United Kingdom, have found strategies to tackle this phenomenon. The government can address the above employment problems in two approaches: via court decisions and amending or revising relevant legislation. Classifying the status of employment relationships in this new phenomenon is crucial for implementation in Indonesia. In the future, such classification can be used as a reference in developing Indonesian Labor Law. The government should consider the necessary substantive protections for workers, from flexible working arrangements to creating new standards more responsive to the structure of growing organizations and the emergence of algorithmic management.

Abstract

The Indonesian Legal Aid Foundation has identified several typologies of structural land cases. One of them is land cases concerning the development of infrastructure projects. In recent years, the government has intensified particular infrastructure projects by designating them as National Strategic Projects (PSN). The designation of certain locations for these National Strategic Projects often overrules the consent of local communities who will be affected by the project. Some cases of infrastructure project development have occurred and impacted such communities. This paper will explicate how the accelerated development of infrastructure projects through the issuance of the Presidential Regulation on National Strategic Projects in 2016 and 2017 have violated community rights to land, the environment, and other human rights. The author will reveal the violation of these rights through examining cases on the construction of the Bener Dam in Central Java and the development of Bitung Toll Road in North Sulawesi. This paper projects one main finding that the government did not use the right to development approach and public needs-based approach in carrying out the project developments. Violations on a couple cases of development, such as Bener Dam and Bitung Toll Road, strengthen the analysis of governmental arbitrariness on conducting PSN in Wadas and Bitung.

Abstract

The post-pandemic economic landscape has witnessed the emergence of a worldwide sharing economy system, commonly known as the ‘gig economy’. This system represents a significant transformation in labor and services exchange characterized by short-term jobs, freelance, or on-demand work arrangements facilitated by digital platforms. Recently, the gig economy has emerged as a highly promising employment preference due to its flexibility. However, it has also led to significant inequality issues for traditional workers. Moreover, this sharing economy system also exerts substantial impacts on the environment.

Abstract

This research reviews the phenomenon of child marriage during the pandemic, from a legal, social and health perspective. Based on data from UNICEF, Indonesia ranks eighth in the world with the number of child marriages reaching 1.4 million children. Data on child marriage from the 2018 National Socio-Economic Survey recorded that the number of child marriages in Indonesia was quite high, reaching 1,220,900 incidents. This means that about 1 in 9 women aged 20-24 get married before the age of 18. This research was conducted in Jember Regency by taking 17 representations in 9 sub-districts. This study uses a qualitative method with an observation and interview approach. From the results of the study, it was found that a small proportion of informants were legally married at Religious Affair Office because they had not met the minimum age for marriage, which was 19 years. Some informants applied for a marriage dispensation at the Religious Courts, and some falsified the date of birth by increasing the age so that it meets the minimum age for marriage. Before getting married, a small number of informants got engaged first and most of them did not go through the engagement process. Informants who are engaged are usually engaged for a relatively long time, between 10 months to a year and then get married. Child marriage is against fundamental rights and freedom of children. The recommendation from this study is the need for more intense socialization about the rules of marriage age and the dangers of early marriage, especially related to their health.

Abstract

Pollution is now the greatest dangerous threat to humanity. Nowadays, everyone scares pollution more than nuclear blasts. Human well-being and economic prosperity have made environmental conservation a critical global issue. Bangladesh is dealing with a number of environmental issues, including deforestation, land degradation, air pollution, water contamination, and biodiversity loss. In Part II (Fundamental Principles of State Policy) of the Bangladesh Constitution, Article 18A states, "The State shall strive to protect and develop the environment, as well as preserve and safeguard natural resources, biodiversity, wetlands, forests, and wild life for current and future inhabitants." However, Article 8(2) of the aforementioned Constitution stipulates that the fundamental principles outlined in Part II of the Constitution are not judicially enforceable. As a result, it is apparent that the Bangladesh Constitution does not contain any direct environmental protection. Furthermore, Bangladesh's constitution does not recognize the right to a healthy environment as a fundamental right. In Bangladesh, the environment doesn't at all promote healthy living. Severe air, water, and noise pollution endangers human health, ecosystems, and Bangladesh's economic progress. Population growth, the usage of fossil fuels, industrialization, and motorized vehicles all contribute to air pollution. Water contamination is the result of industrialization. The Government of Bangladesh has adopted various laws pertaining to environmental issues, such as the Environment Court Act, 2010, the Bangladesh Environment Conservation Act, 1995, the National River Protection Commission Act, 2013, the Bangladesh Water Act, 2013, etc. Despite the adoption of several laws and regulations, environmental pollution in the country persisted. This paper is qualitative in nature. The main purpose of this paper is to deliver a brief outline of the current legal regime dealing to the environment, as well as to identify environmental dispute resolution procedures within Bangladesh's existing legal framework. It will also investigate into the legal hurdles to pursuing environmental justice. This study presents some observations on achieving access to environmental justice for all population groups in Bangladesh.

Abstract

The abstract presents a critical analysis of the role played by court decisions in the prevention of deforestation. Over the past few decades, Indonesia has witnessed extensive deforestation, primarily due to the expansion of oil palm and agriculture. This has had a significant impact on Bali's tourism industry, which heavily relies on this sector for development. The Tahura Mangrove Forest Project serves as an example of a tourism venture that has resulted in damage to the forested area. Despite the prohibition of commercial projects on protected land, the government issued a utilization permit for the construction of guest houses. Rather than effectively curbing deforestation, this study demonstrates how controversial court decisions have actually encouraged it. The courts' assertion that public interest groups lacked standing to challenge violations of forestry laws, which could potentially cause environmental harm, was based on the argument that the damage was only a possibility during the planning stage and could not be accurately quantified. This paper identifies three factors contributing to the judges' adoption of a narrow standing test: their limited judicial competence, reliance on the Supreme Court's existence, and corruption.
