Abstract

Land is essential for human life, serving as a base for agriculture, housing, and economic activities. In Indonesia, land management and ownership are regulated to benefit both individuals and the community. Conflicts, however, can arise when private land use negatively impacts neighboring areas, as seen in Runding village. Here, a farmer's decision to plant oil palm upstream in Negung village has caused water scarcity for downstream farmers, leading to crop failures. Article 20 of Indonesia's Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA), as explained by Ali Ahmad Chomzah, emphasizes that land ownership rights carry a social function and must not harm others. Land use should adapt to its circumstances and respect community welfare. This aligns with the concept of Maslahah Mursalah in Islamic law, which considers public interest and welfare, derived from the broader goals of Sharia. In Runding village, such restrictions aim to balance individual land use with community welfare, reflecting the principles of public and individual welfare. This research aims to explore the regulatory framework of land ownership rights and how Maslahah Mursalah can guide the management of privately owned land. Using empirical legal research with a case study, statute, and conceptual approach, this study seeks to understand how land management restrictions can ensure both individual rights and societal welfare. The research highlights the potential to balance private land rights with social responsibilities, contributing to sustainable land management practices that align with legal and ethical principles, fostering harmony between landowners and the community.

Abstract

Indonesia's constitutional legal system faces significant challenges due to ongoing social, economic, and political crises. These challenges stem from issues such as systemic corruption, uneven development, social inequality, and political instability. The legal system must evolve and adapt to address these challenges effectively and equitably. This article examines the impact of crisis policies on legal and governmental stability, with a focus on how constitutional legal systems can adapt to and overcome these obstacles. This study employs normative and conceptual analysis to assess the flexibility, transparency, accountability, and justice within Indonesia's constitutional law. The analysis is grounded in an evaluation of relevant laws and regulations, highlighting how constitutional amendments, decentralisation, and the strengthening of state institutions influence the legal system's responses and overall efficacy. Despite efforts to reform and fortify the judicial system, persistent issues such as widespread corruption, regional disparities, and entrenched social inequalities continue to pose significant challenges. This article underscores the need for crisis-responsive legal policies and offers strategic recommendations to enhance the resilience and adaptability of the legal system. These recommendations include improving mechanisms for monitoring and accountability, developing more inclusive and sustainable policies, and fostering greater community involvement in the legal process.Through this analysis, the study contributes to a deeper understanding of how Indonesia's constitutional legal system can be optimised to address escalating crises and challenges, while promoting more effective and sustainable reforms

Abstract

So it requires the community to work together to build the country through taxes. This research aims to find out the legal basis of the VAT increase policy, then find out the impact of the increase policy. And then how is the VAT increase policy if reviewed from the perspective of maslahah mursalah. In this study, the author uses normative research methods, with the Conceptual Approach and Statutes Approach. This research is descriptive analytical, data is collected through document studies, literature studies, and then analyzed using deductive thinking logic. The results of this study show that the increase in VAT rates is based on Law Number 7 of 2021 concerning the Harmonization of Tax Regulations (HPP Law). From the perspective of maslahah mursalah, which focuses on the benefit or public interest, this policy can be seen as an effort to achieve the welfare of the community at large. The increase in VAT has the potential to bring significant benefits by increasing the state budget that can be allocated for infrastructure, education, health, and other social programs, in line with the principle of public benefit. However, negative impacts such as inflation and a decrease in people's purchasing power, especially for low-income groups, need to be anticipated.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the enforcement of SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) certification for electronic products in the Medan Denai District of Medan City and to evaluate the accountability of electronic store operators concerning consumer protection under both civil and criminal law. The significance of this study lies in its exploration of the intersection between legal frameworks, consumer rights, and public safety, offering a nuanced understanding of how these elements interact in a localized setting. By focusing on the Medan Denai District, the research not only highlights the specific challenges and dynamics faced in ensuring compliance with SNI standards but also reflects broader national concerns. The incorporation of Maqashid Al-Syari'ah, an Islamic jurisprudential principle, is crucial as it frames the discussion within a moral and ethical context. Maqashid Al-Syari'ah, which aims to protect fundamental human interests such as religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property, provides a unique lens through which consumer protection can be viewed. This perspective emphasizes that ensuring product safety and adherence to standards transcends mere legal obligations, embodying a deeper commitment to fulfilling religious and moral duties. The focus on Medan Denai District as a case study is essential because it offers a tangible example of how these principles are applied in practice, revealing both the successes and limitations of current enforcement mechanisms. This research, therefore, contributes valuable insights into how consumer protection can be enhanced by aligning legal and ethical standards, ultimately promoting societal well-being.

Abstract

Floating houses, or "Rumah Terapung," are unique residential concepts built on water rather than on land. This tradition, deeply rooted in Indonesian coastal communities, involves constructing homes on lakes, rivers, marshes, and coastal areas, reflecting a lifestyle passed down through generations. Indonesian law, particularly Law No. 28 of 2002 concerning Buildings, permits the construction of structures above or below land, water, or public infrastructure, which must be registered with the government to ensure proper use and development. However, many floating houses remain unregistered due to unclear land rights. The National Land Agency (BPN) oversees the registration of land rights, including maritime cadastres, which are essential for managing coastal and marine areas. Despite Indonesia's abundant coastal resources, the country lacks a dedicated maritime cadastre organization, necessitating the development of appropriate measurement, mapping, and rights registration processes to provide legal certainty for these water-based structures. The guarantee of immovable objects like floating houses involves Mortgage Rights under Law No. 4 of 1996. The principle of horizontal separation in Indonesian land law, which distinguishes ownership of land and buildings, complicates the registration and guarantee process. Government authority encompasses various laws and regulations, including Law No. 11 of 2020 and Law No. 26 of 2007, requiring coordination between central and regional governments in planning, licensing, environmental assessment (AMDAL), supervision, law enforcement, and conservation. Proper coordination ensures sustainable and environmentally friendly development, preserving Indonesia's coastal and marine resources. Clear regulations and processes are essential to provide legal certainty and support the sustainable development of floating housing settlements, ensuring that these unique communities continue to thrive.
