Abstract

Rapid urbanization, population growth, and shifting consumption patterns have significantly increased municipal solid waste (MSW) generation in Indonesia, exposing structural inefficiencies in material use and post-consumption management under a predominantly linear economic model. National data indicate that waste generation has reached approximately 0.833 kg per capita per day, with urban waste volumes increasing substantially between 2020 and 2024 and concentrated primarily in densely populated regions such as Java, Sumatra, and Borneo. Waste composition analysis further reveals that organic waste remains the dominant fraction at nearly 40% of total municipal waste, followed by a rising plastic fraction approaching 20%, underscoring the need for data-driven circular economy strategies. This study employs a systematic review methodology, synthesizing peer-reviewed literature, governmental reports, and institutional documents to examine how waste generation and composition data can inform circular economy planning in Indonesia. The analysis integrates national waste statistics with evaluations of existing initiatives—including waste banks, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes, refuse-derived fuel (RDF) production, composting programs, anaerobic digestion, and Black Soldier Fly (BSF) bioconversion—and compares them with international best practices suited to similar waste profiles. The findings indicate that although Indonesia has formally adopted circular economy principles and implemented various recovery-oriented programs, their scale and integration remain insufficient relative to the dominant organic and plastic fractions. Organic waste presents significant potential for biological treatment pathways such as composting and anaerobic digestion, while increasing plastic waste necessitates stronger upstream product redesign and reverse logistics systems. The study concludes that integrating reliable waste generation and composition data into policy formulation and technology deployment is essential for advancing evidence-based, scalable, and context-sensitive circular economy strategies capable of reducing landfill dependency and enhancing resource efficiency in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the criminal liability of fiber optic operators for intentional and negligent acts that harm the public. The main focus is on how positive law and the harmonization of the criminal justice system regulate this responsibility. This research uses a legislative, case, and comparative approach within the framework of normative legal methods. All legal materials (primary, secondary, and tertiary) are analyzed qualitatively to answer the legal issues raised. In addition to providing compensation. The research findings reinforce the existence of negligence by the fiber optic network operator as a corporate entity, whether committed intentionally (dolus) or due to structural negligence (culpa), resulting in legal liability for damage to public facilities in the form of dysfunction of public infrastructure. Business actors sometimes benefit from the crimes they commit, so it is considered unfair to impose criminal sanctions on operators. As the regulator of regional development, local governments also bear responsibility for every policy issued. On the other hand, the restorative justice approach through criminal mediation remains relevant to be integrated into various models of law enforcement. This requires comprehensive harmonization in the criminal justice system—substantively, structurally, and culturally—to be in line with the values ​​of justice in positive law.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the indicators of Sekolah Ramah Anak (SRA)/Child-Friendly Schools (CFS) in primary education and examine their implications for gender equality content. The study is grounded in the observation that the SRA framework generally emphasizes safety, protection, participation, health, and inclusiveness, yet has not adequately integrated gender as an explicit analytical dimension. In fact, the primary school environment constitutes an important space for shaping children’s social experiences, including gender relations, participation, self-expression, and access to equitable learning spaces. This study employed a qualitative approach using a systematic literature review design. Data were collected through a review of academic databases and relevant policy documents, and were analyzed using thematic analysis combined with a critical gender lens. The findings indicate that the dominant SRA indicators include safe and protective environments, anti-discriminatory practices, child participation, health and well-being, and inclusive education. However, most of these indicators are still formulated in neutral terms and remain insufficiently sensitive to capture gender-based inequalities in children’s school experiences. Further analysis reveals that gender bias may manifest in teaching practices, classroom participation patterns, the use of school facilities, and social relations that shape children’s experiences differently. Therefore, this study recommends the reconstruction of SRA indicators to make them more explicit, contextual, and transformative by positioning gender equality as a cross-cutting principle embedded in school policy, governance, infrastructure, participation, and pedagogical practices in primary education. These findings affirm that a truly child-friendly school is not only administratively safe, but also experientially just for all children.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and understand the legal principles applied by the judge in the annulment of a Deed of Sale and Purchase executed by a Land Deed Officer (PPAT) in Judgment No. 80/Pdt.G/2020/PN.Btl. The type of research used in this study is normative legal research, which involves examining legal materials derived from various laws and regulations as well as other materials from the literature. This legal writing employs both the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The legal materials used in this normative legal study consist of primary and secondary legal sources. The method of collecting legal materials involves a literature review, which is conducted by reading and citing books, as well as analyzing laws and regulations, documents, and information relevant to the research being conducted. The research analysis was conducted using descriptive analysis. Research findings indicate that judges who tend to apply the theory of responsive law do not merely focus on the formal validity of authentic documents (legal positivism), but actively respond to the public’s sense of justice and the social realities surrounding the case. The ruling invalidating the deed took effect when the judge prioritized substantive justice and granted legal protection to the plaintiffs as parties acting in good faith.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of BRICS as a geopolitical security instrument within Russia's broader strategy to expand its influence across Africa amid the ongoing structural transformation of the international order toward multipolarity. Originally established as an economic cooperation forum among developing nations, BRICS has since evolved into a political and strategic platform that functions as an alternative to Western-dominated global institutions. This transformation has become increasingly pronounced in the context of escalating geopolitical tensions between Russia and Western states, particularly in the aftermath of the Ukraine conflict. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, this study conducts content analysis of policy documents, official statements by Russian officials, international media reports, and communiqués from BRICS summits and the Russia–Africa Summits of 2019 and 2023. The analytical framework draws on the theories of strategic depth and multipolar institutionalism to examine how Russia leverages non-Western multilateral platforms to build cross-regional strategic depth. The findings reveal that Russia has systematically utilized BRICS as an alternative diplomatic channel to consolidate military cooperation, advance energy investment expansion, and construct anti-hegemonic narratives rooted in South–South solidarity across Africa. Through BRICS, Russia positions itself as a strategic partner that upholds the principles of equality, sovereignty, and non-intervention which stands in deliberate contrast to the hierarchical patterns characteristic of Africa–West relations. This article contributes to the international relations literature by broadening the understanding of the role of multipolar institutions in the security strategies of non-Western states, and by demonstrating how BRICS functions as a geopolitical instrument that reconfigures global power dynamics and South–South relations within the context of an emerging multipolar world order.

Abstract

This study examines the reconstruction of the legal governance of customary tourism villages in addressing institutional fragmentation within indigenous-based tourism development. The research is motivated by the persistent gap between normative legal frameworks and practical implementation, particularly due to regulatory fragmentation, weak recognition of indigenous rights, unequal power relations, and the absence of fair benefit-sharing mechanisms. Using a normative legal research method with statute and conceptual approaches, this study analyzes the disharmony among regulations related to village governance, tourism, and indigenous peoples, as well as relevant theoretical frameworks such as legal pluralism, legal recognition, and collaborative governance. The findings indicate that existing governance models remain sectoral, state-centric, and insufficiently integrative, resulting in legal uncertainty and limited participation of indigenous communities. As a solution, this study proposes a legal reconstruction based on the Quadruple Helix model, which integrates government, academia, the private sector, and indigenous civil society into a collaborative and participatory governance system. This model emphasizes co-design, co-governance, and rights-based approaches to ensure inclusivity, accountability, and equitable distribution of benefits. In conclusion, the reconstruction of legal governance requires strengthening legal substance, institutional design, and legal culture to create an integrated, sustainable, and socially just framework for customary tourism village development, with indigenous communities as the primary subjects

Abstract

This study examines the protection and fulfillment of women's rights in East Sumba society from a human rights perspective. The focus of the study is directed at various forms of gender inequality that are still influenced by social structures, traditional culture, and power relations that impact women's access to education, health, social participation, and legal protection. The study uses an empirical juridical method with a legislative and socio-cultural approach. Data were obtained through literature studies, analysis of laws and regulations, and a study of social practices that have developed in East Sumba society. The results show that women still face various obstacles in obtaining their rights equally, even though they are normatively guaranteed by national and international human rights instruments. This article analyzes the gap between legal norms and social reality and identifies factors that influence the effectiveness of women's rights protection. The research findings indicate the need for policy strengthening, increasing public legal awareness, and synergy between the government, traditional institutions, and the community to realize more effective and equitable protection of women's rights in East Sumba.

Abstract

The professional identity and motivation of English as Foreign Language (EFL) teachers are shaped not only by pedagogical experiences but also by the broader social and economic contexts in which they work. In Indonesia, limited teacher remuneration and culturally embedded gender expectations continue to influence teachers’ professional engagement; however, the interaction between these factors remains underexplored in EFL research. This study aims to examine how economic constraints and gender expectations influence the professional identity and motivation of Indonesian EFL teachers. A qualitative narrative inquiry was employed involving twenty secondary school EFL teachers from Indonesia. Data were collected through semi-structured, in-depth interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns across participants’ experiences. The findings reveal that inadequate remuneration negatively affects teachers’ motivation, professional development, instructional creativity, and participation in continuous learning. Nevertheless, teachers with a strong sense of professional vocation demonstrated sustained commitment despite financial challenges. The study also found that gender expectations significantly shaped teachers’ career decisions and professional identity. Male teachers commonly undertook additional employment to fulfill their responsibilities as family breadwinners, whereas married female teachers prioritized domestic and caregiving responsibilities, resulting in different forms of professional engagement. These findings indicate that professional identity is dynamically negotiated through the interaction between personal agency and contextual pressures rather than being determined solely by individual beliefs or professional competence. The study highlights the importance of improving teacher welfare and developing context-sensitive educational policies that recognize the influence of economic conditions and sociocultural expectations on teacher motivation, professional identity, and long-term career sustainability.

Abstract

This study examines the legal characteristics of unlawful acts arising from debt agreement deeds prepared before a notary, with particular reference to the Surakarta District Court Decision No. 211/Pdt.G/2021/PN.Skt. It also explores the legal considerations adopted by the panel of judges in resolving the dispute. The issue addressed in this study stems from a debt agreement dispute that was not limited to breach of contract but also involved elements of unlawful conduct, particularly because the disputed acts were considered inconsistent with good faith, propriety, and the proper use of authentic deeds. This research adopts a normative legal method using statutory and case approaches. The legal materials analyzed consist of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources, which were examined qualitatively. The findings reveal that the dispute fulfilled the elements of an unlawful act as stipulated under Article 1365 of the Indonesian Civil Code, namely the existence of an unlawful act, fault, loss, and a causal relationship between the act and the damage suffered. The case demonstrates that a contractual relationship may evolve into an unlawful act when one party suffers harm due to the misuse of a notarial deed that is not based on good faith. The judges’ reasoning was primarily grounded in the proof of material loss and the conduct of the parties, which was deemed contrary to law, fairness, and propriety. This study offers a legal contribution by emphasizing that a notarial deed should not be understood solely as an authentic evidentiary instrument, but also as a legal instrument that may give rise to liability when it is used unlawfully.
