Abstract

The relocation of the capital city of the Republic of Indonesia from DKI Jakarta Province to the Indonesian archipelago has raised several issues, one of which is for the former capital city. The problem that arises lies in the regulations that serve as the legal basis for the Special Region of Jakarta Province after it is no longer the capital city. Inconsistencies in norms occur between Law Number 2/2024 (UU 2/2024) and Law Number 151/2024 (UU 151/2024), which is an amendment to Law 2/2024. Law 2/2024 states that the enactment of the law is still awaiting the issuance of a Presidential Decree regarding the official relocation of the capital city. On the other hand, Law 151/2024 is declared to be in effect on the date of its promulgation. Law 151/2024 was formed with the aim of recognizing the winner of the 2024 general election from the electoral district of DKI Jakarta Province as the winner of the general election from the Special Region of Jakarta Province. The type of research used in this study is qualitative research using secondary data. This type of qualitative research was chosen to understand the issues that arise related to the inconsistency of norms between Law Number 2/2024 concerning the Special Region of Jakarta Province and its amendments through Law Number 151/2024. This study uses a descriptive research approach. The descriptive approach aims to accurately explain the legal materials obtained. In addition to descriptive, this study also uses a prescriptive approach. There are two (2) findings of this study: first, this inconsistency of norms impacts the validity of all legal products which are made by Provincial officials which is should be made by, for, and on behalf of the Special Region of Jakarta Province. Second, there are constitutional issues arising from legal uncertainty regarding the position of the nation's capital during the transition period.

Abstract

(1) Statement of the Problem: Infrastructure development through the National Strategic Project is one of the government's main policies in accelerating economic growth and improving national connectivity. However, its implementation often results in social impacts in the form of agrarian conflicts, unequal distribution of development benefits, and changes in the social structure of affected communities. This study analyzes the legal policy model of the National Strategic Project and its impact on social stratification from a welfare society perspective using Dahrendorf's social conflict theory approach. (2) Research questions: The research problems are: (a) How is the legal policy model of the National Strategic Project in the legal system of development in Indonesia, (b) How is the impact of the implementation of the National Strategic Project on the social stratification of society and (c) How is the legal policy model of the National Strategic Project based on welfare society in the perspective of Dahrendorf's social conflict theory? (3) Method: This study uses an empirical juridical method with legislative, conceptual, and sociological approaches. Data were obtained through literature studies and empirical data from various research reports, policy documents, and relevant field studies. (4) Findings/Results: The results show that the implementation of the National Strategic Project tends to result in social dualism between groups that benefit from development and affected community groups who experience social marginalization. This condition strengthens social stratification and triggers conflict between dominant and subordinate groups as explained in Dahrendorf's social conflict theory. Therefore, it is necessary to reconstruct the legal policy model of the National Strategic Project based on welfare society by strengthening community participation, fair distribution of development benefits, and legal protection for affected communities. (5) Academic Contribution: This paper gives academic contribution as this policy model is expected to be able to create inclusive and socially just development.

Abstract

Lecturer performance is a key factor in improving the quality of higher education. Data from lecturer performance management at the Indonesian Defense University (Unhan RI) shows that the predicate is not optimal. The purpose of this study is to analyze the variables of situational leadership, organizational culture, and self-efficacy that influence lecturer performance variables at Unhan RI. The quantitative research approach uses a survey method. The research sample uses a total sampling technique with 103 lecturers at Unhan RI as respondents. Data collection through questionnaires that have been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis techniques use descriptive statistical analysis, prerequisite tests including normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests, multiple linear regression analysis, hypothesis testing through t-tests and F-tests, and coefficient of determination tests using IBM SPSS Statistics 25 software. The results of the study indicate that situational leadership has a significant effect on lecturer performance, organizational culture has a significant effect on lecturer performance, self-efficacy has a significant effect on lecturer performance, and situational leadership, organizational culture, and self-efficacy together also have a significant effect on lecturer performance at Unhan RI. The results of this study are expected to serve as a reference for improving lecturer performance through the development of adaptive situational leadership, strengthening a positive organizational culture at the university, and enhancing lecturer self-efficacy through continuous professional development. Supporting lecturer performance improvement will further enhance the quality of education.

Abstract

The expansion of oil palm plantations in South Barito Regency, Central Kalimantan has accelerated significantly from 402.72 ha/year (2011–2014) to 776.70 ha/year (2014–2022), raising serious concerns about the conformity of actual land use with the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) 2014–2034 and the biophysical suitability of plantation development sites. This study aims to evaluate the conformity of oil palm plantation spatial utilization with RTRW policy and formulate strategic recommendations for RTRW improvement, with emphasis on institutional implications. A Geographic Information System (GIS) approach was employed, integrating multi-temporal satellite imagery analysis (Sentinel-2, 2014 and 2022), biophysical land suitability assessment using BBSDLP guidelines, spatial conformity analysis through overlay of existing land use maps with RTRW spatial patterns, and a Pentahelix-based SWOT analysis involving five stakeholder groups: Government, Academia, Business, Community, and Media. Results reveal that only 31.02% (4,325.39 ha) of existing plantations are located within conforming zones, while 58.9% (8,217.83 ha) are in non-conforming zones—predominantly overlapping with mining zones (31.51%) and residential zones (27.28%). Land use dynamics show a dramatic 289.40% increase in swampland and a 36.32% decline in shrubland, while plantation area itself decreased by 12.64% despite maintaining 83.53% persistence. Biophysical land suitability assessment reveals that 49.42% of the study area falls under the not suitable (N) class, with rooting media constraints as the primary limiting factor. SWOT-Pentahelix positioning in Quadrant IV (WT) yields five hierarchical strategies for RTRW improvement: ecological restoration, institutional strengthening and permit conflict resolution, RTRW revision based on land suitability, land rehabilitation and transitional zone management, and strengthened monitoring systems. These findings demonstrate significant gaps in spatial planning implementation and inter-sectoral coordination, contributing to the evidence base for evidence-driven spatial policy reform in Indonesia.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital journalism in Indonesia has generated significant challenges regarding legal compliance, journalistic ethics, and the quality of information disseminated to the public. Despite the growing importance of digital literacy in strengthening democratic participation and civil society, studies examining press non-compliance from an integrated legal and socio-legal perspective remain limited. This study aims to analyze the forms of press non-compliance in presenting digital literacy-related information and to examine the effectiveness of legal enforcement mechanisms governing digital journalism in Indonesia during the period 2023–2025. Employing a qualitative normative-juridical approach with a socio-legal perspective, the research utilizes document analysis of statutory regulations, the Journalistic Code of Ethics, Press Council decisions, legal documents, and selected cases of digital news reporting. The findings reveal four dominant forms of non-compliance: inadequate verification of information, sensationalist and clickbait-oriented reporting, violations of privacy and personal dignity, and politically biased news framing. The study further demonstrates that existing enforcement mechanisms remain fragmented due to overlapping institutional authorities, limited monitoring capacity, and the predominantly administrative nature of sanctions imposed by regulatory bodies. These conditions contribute to weak accountability and reduce the deterrent effect of legal regulation in the digital media environment. The research also shows that persistent press non-compliance negatively affects public digital literacy by increasing vulnerability to misinformation, weakening public trust in media institutions, and undermining the deliberative function of civil society. This study contributes to socio-legal scholarship by integrating press law, media ethics, and digital literacy within a civil society framework and argues that press freedom in the digital era must be understood as freedom accompanied by legal responsibility and ethical accountability. Strengthening institutional oversight, professional ethics, and public digital literacy is therefore essential for sustaining democratic communication in Indonesia.

Abstract

The development of the digital culinary ecosystem through e-food delivery applications encourages the use of paylater features that offer payment convenience, but potentially contain elements of riba nasi'ah in the form of additional fees for delayed payments. This practice raises issues from the perspective of digital consumer protection and Islamic business ethics. This study analyzes the impact of riba nasi'ah practices on digital consumer protection and Islamic business ethics in halal cake MSMEs in the e-commerce ecosystem. This study addresses the issue of hidden interest mechanisms embedded in digital financial features such as buy now pay later (BNPL) and fintech-based loans, which are contrary to Islamic principles. The research questions focus on how riba nasi'ah affects Islamic business ethics and digital consumer protection, and what Sharia-based solutions can be implemented. This study uses a qualitative normative-conceptual approach based on a literature review of reputable journals, books, and regulatory sources. The findings indicate that riba nasi'ah practices lead to violations of justice (adl), honesty (sidq), and virtue (ihsan), increase production costs, reduce product quality, and weaken consumer trust. Furthermore, these practices create risks of gharar and tadlis in digital transactions. This study contributes by offering an integrative framework that links riba nasi’ah, Islamic business ethics, and consumer protection, and proposes sharia-compliant solutions such as murabahah and wakalah contracts.

Abstract

The increasing emergence of land formed through natural sedimentation and artificial lake filling has generated significant legal uncertainty regarding its ownership status and management under Indonesian land law. This issue becomes particularly complex when such land is claimed by private individuals despite its formation occurring within areas previously controlled by public water bodies. Accordingly, this study addresses two principal questions: (1) What is the legal status of land formed by sedimentation and lake filling under Indonesian land law? and (2) How should the State’s Right of Control be interpreted in determining rights over such land? This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Legal materials are analyzed through qualitative legal interpretation to examine the relationship between land formation processes and the constitutional doctrine of the State’s Right of Control as stipulated in Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution and relevant agrarian regulations. The findings reveal that land created through sedimentation and lake filling cannot automatically become private property merely because of physical occupation or utilization. Such land initially falls within the scope of the State’s Right of Control, as it constitutes newly emerged land resulting from natural or artificial geographical changes. The state possesses the authority to regulate, allocate, and determine legal rights over the land while ensuring public welfare, environmental sustainability, and legal certainty. This study contributes to the development of agrarian law theory by clarifying the legal construction of newly emerged land and proposing a more coherent interpretation of the State’s Right of Control to resolve ownership disputes and strengthen legal certainty in the management of sedimentation and reclaimed lands in Indonesia

Abstract

This study analyzes asset recovery arrangements from the perspective of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) and its implementation in Indonesia. Using normative legal research methods with legislative, conceptual, and comparative approaches, this study finds that there is still a significant normative gap between the provisions of UNCAC Chapter V and the Indonesian domestic legal framework, especially in terms of the adoption of the non-conviction based forfeiture mechanism. Institutional obstacles in the form of overlapping authority, weak coordination, and limited human resource capacity also hinder the effectiveness of asset recovery. The Asset Forfeiture Bill, which carries an in rem and asset sharing mechanism, is an important breakthrough, but its success requires strengthening institutional capacity, harmonizing regulations, and protecting human rights for well-intentioned third parties. This study recommends accelerating the ratification of the Asset Forfeiture Bill, strengthening coordination between law enforcement agencies, and improving the competence of officials in tracking and recovering assets across countries.

Abstract

The principle of non-refoulement is traditionally associated with Article 33 of the 1951 Refugee Convention, yet contemporary displacement increasingly occurs outside the classical refugee framework. In addition to persecution and armed conflict, people may be forced to move because of environmental degradation, climate-related disasters, ecological vulnerability, loss of livelihood, and conditions that threaten human dignity and survival. This article examines how non-refoulement develops beyond the Refugee Convention, particularly in relation to environmental displacement and the limits of State sovereignty. It addresses three research questions: how non-refoulement operates under customary international law and international human rights law; to what extent its core content may be linked to jus cogens; and how it limits State discretion in migration control, environmental governance, and protection of displaced persons. This study uses normative legal research with statutory, conceptual, and case-law approaches. It examines international treaties, human rights instruments, environmental law principles, peremptory norms, judicial decisions, and recent scholarship on externalized migration control and climate-induced displacement. The findings show that non-refoulement functions as a multi-source obligation through three layers: the customary baseline binding all States, the human rights non-derogability layer protecting all persons from irreparable harm, and the jus cogens core prohibiting removal to peremptory violations such as torture, genocide, slavery, and crimes against humanity. The article contributes by formulating a three-layer normative convergence test and by linking non-refoulement to environmental displacement, sustainable development, and the legal limits of sovereignty.

Abstract

Vocational schools are required to respond to rapid technological and industrial changes while simultaneously developing students’ higher-order thinking skills. However, curriculum flexibility does not always translate into meaningful classroom practices that strengthen critical thinking. This study examined the relationships among curriculum adaptability, Project-Based Learning, and students’ critical thinking skills and investigated the mediating role of Project-Based Learning in vocational schools in Bandung, Indonesia. A quantitative explanatory design with a cross-sectional survey was employed. Data were collected from 312 students from public and private vocational schools representing technology and engineering, information and communication technology, business and management, tourism and hospitality, and creative industries. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling with a bootstrapping procedure of 5,000 resamples. The results showed that curriculum adaptability was positively associated with students’ critical thinking skills (β = 0.247, p < 0.001) and Project-Based Learning implementation (β = 0.654, p < 0.001). Project-Based Learning was also positively associated with critical thinking skills (β = 0.518, p < 0.001). The indirect relationship between curriculum adaptability and critical thinking through Project-Based Learning was significant (β = 0.339, p < 0.001), indicating complementary partial mediation. The model explained 42.8% of the variance in Project-Based Learning and 51.3% of the variance in critical thinking skills. This study contributes to vocational education literature by demonstrating that curriculum adaptability supports critical thinking more effectively when translated into authentic, collaborative, investigative, and reflective project activities. The findings highlight the importance of teacher competence, industry-relevant project design, flexible assessment, and sustained school–industry collaboration.
