Abstract

The dynamics of law enforcement and justice in the context of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 5.0 represent an evolving framework that emphasizes the integration of legal systems with global sustainability objectives. SDG 5, which focuses on achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls, plays a central role in reshaping legal landscapes worldwide. As countries strive to align their legal practices with the SDGs, law enforcement agencies face new challenges and opportunities in addressing issues of gender-based violence, discrimination, and inequality. The era of SDGs 5.0 signifies a more comprehensive approach to justice, recognizing the intersectionality of legal rights, social justice, and environmental sustainability. The role of law enforcement agencies has expanded to encompass not only traditional criminal justice functions but also proactive engagement in social change. They are expected to enforce laws that promote gender equality, protect marginalized communities, and address emerging global issues such as climate justice and human rights. Furthermore, the evolving digital landscape and the increasing use of technology present both a challenge and an opportunity for law enforcement in ensuring justice and equity in a rapidly changing world. This paper examines the changing dynamics of law enforcement and justice in the era of SDGs 5.0, exploring how legal frameworks are adapting to meet the demands of sustainability, gender equality, and social justice. It highlights the need for an integrated approach that combines legal reform, capacity building, and community engagement to achieve the SDGs while ensuring justice for all.

Abstract

A country's foreign policy is a means to achieve the desired goals for the national interests of the country. Likewise with Indonesia, establishing cooperation in the international world and between countries is not a taboo. With the principle of free and active politics as a guideline for Indonesia in exploring the wilderness of the international world which is full of various interests and conflicts, Indonesia must be able to formulate its foreign policy policies well, not only limited to national interests but must be able to show contributions to the international world so that Indonesia's name can be taken into account in its goal of becoming a Middle Power country. Indonesia's foreign policy line cannot be separated from the views and ideology of the ruling regime, whether using persuasive or confrontational diplomacy. Even the principle of free and active which is currently held has an ambiguous interpretation or meaning, whether the free and active in question is free in the sense of being neutral in international conflicts between nations, but still actively providing solutions and contributions in resolving conflicts, or free and active in the context of being free to have one's own views and stances to support or not support an entity or country in an international conflict based on the foundation and limitations of the country's constitution. Interestingly, both of these meanings of active freedom have been applied in Indonesia's foreign policy.

Abstract

Indigenous peoples in Indonesia have long played a significant role in the preservation of biodiversity, cultural heritage, and sustainable resource management. As Indonesia navigates the challenges of sustainable development, the active involvement of indigenous communities is crucial in achieving the nation’s development goals while preserving environmental integrity. This paper explores the role of indigenous peoples in Indonesia in promoting sustainable development, focusing on their traditional knowledge systems, practices, and deep connection to the land. Indigenous communities often possess invaluable knowledge regarding local ecosystems, which has been passed down through generations. This knowledge is key to sustainable agriculture, forest management, and conservation practices that align with Indonesia’s sustainable development agenda. However, the role of indigenous peoples is often undermined by modern development policies that fail to recognize their rights, land claims, and cultural significance. These policies frequently lead to land dispossession, environmental degradation, and loss of traditional knowledge. This paper examines how indigenous communities, despite facing these challenges, continue to resist marginalization and contribute to the sustainability of their environments and cultures. By integrating indigenous knowledge into contemporary sustainability efforts, there is potential to create more inclusive and effective development strategies. The research highlights the importance of legal recognition, cultural respect, and participatory governance to ensure that indigenous peoples can actively engage in shaping sustainable development policies. In conclusion, the active role of indigenous peoples is essential for achieving a more sustainable and equitable future in Indonesia.

Abstract

The renewal of national law in Indonesia is an effort to modernize the law in creating positive law that is in tune with the times. In this reform effort, customary law is considered as a reflection of ancestral values ​​that are very in line with the basic foundations, sources, and materials of national law so that it will be used as a benchmark in the process of reforming the national legal system. This manuscript is the development of the sub-themes, namely indigenous peoples and national law. The focus of the problem that will be raised is how customary law that grows in the community can become the main basis in efforts to reform the national legal system in Indonesia. It is important to recognize the values ​​that live in society as customary law in the renewal of the national legal system which is a demand and need to fulfill the national ideals of the Indonesian nation.

Abstract

This paper presents a comparative analysis of the development of legal cases related to serious human rights violations in Indonesia. Despite Indonesia’s commitment to international human rights standards, serious violations, including gross human rights abuses during political conflicts, environmental disasters, and other state-sponsored violations, have been prevalent in its history. These violations, such as the 1965-1966 anti-communist purge, the 1998 reformasi riots, and ongoing issues in Papua, have drawn significant attention from both domestic and international human rights organizations. The study compares the legal processes, outcomes, and the role of national and international bodies in addressing these violations. Key cases such as the 1998 riots and the abuses in East Timor are examined to evaluate Indonesia’s judicial accountability, the involvement of civil society, and the effectiveness of transitional justice mechanisms. Despite the existence of human rights laws and institutions such as the National Human Rights Commission (Komnas HAM) and the Human Rights Court, accountability for these crimes has often been limited, with few perpetrators being prosecuted or convicted. The paper also analyzes the political and social challenges that hinder the progress of human rights cases, including political will, institutional weaknesses, and the influence of the military in decision-making processes. By comparing these cases, the paper highlights the systemic issues that prevent meaningful justice and proposes recommendations for strengthening the legal framework to ensure accountability for serious human rights violations in Indonesia. This comparative study is crucial in understanding the broader implications of human rights protection in the country’s future development.

Abstract

In this era of Society 5.0, humans are required to create new values so that they can avoid inequality. Both from an economic and social point of view. However, if examined more closely, there is one point that can’t be missed in human attention. That is human rights. Human Rights (HR) is something that is very attached to every human person. Human rights include the right to life and to get justice. Among these rights, there is also the right to be independent which guarantees every human being to be free to do or have an opinion both behind and in front of the to the development of the times. On the basis of the principle of “lex posterior derogat legi priori”, the old laws no longer apply. However, even though many new laws have been implemented, human rights problems have not stopped and have received significant solutions. Even today, there are still many human rights violations in this country. Using a qualitative method, this article will explain about human rights violations that are very worrying in Indonesia.
