Abstract

This study aims to explore the practice of “flexing” and the luxury lifestyle as represented in the media both through the self-representation of female public figures on their social media accounts and through coverage by mainstream outlets. These figures include actresses, entertainers, and other widely recognized social personalities. The research is urgent given that the public display of wealth and opulence disseminated through the media generates a domino effect within society, particularly in shaping consumption patterns and fueling an increasingly pervasive culture of consumerism in Indonesia. The proliferation of consumerist culture both reflects and exacerbates social inequality in Indonesia, where poverty remains a fundamental challenge. A gendered perspective, especially feminist scholarship focusing on the concept of “false solidarity” is employed as the analytical lens in this research. Here, false solidarity refers to performative gestures of empathy that reinforce inequality, mock economically disadvantaged women, and normalize such practices through state institutional complicity. The method used is Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), which examines social practices that contain elements of inequality among members of different social groups, as conveyed through the linguistic discourses circulating on social media.

Abstract

This article revisits the concept of legal pluralism, which continues to evolve alongside society and all its complexities. Knowledge of legal pluralism evolves in line with societal changes identified through scientific research and activities. Over the past two decades, developments have drawn attention to the globalisation of law, leading to the concept of modern legal pluralism. The intertwining and mutual influences, as well as the adoptions and reproductions, resulting from encounters between legal systems have become increasingly complex due to the presence of international and transnational law. This is particularly significant in the areas of human rights, democracy, clean governance and environmental crisis. Today, global citizens are connected to one another because they share knowledge about legal norms and values brought about by 'new law'. The study of modern legal pluralism has methodological consequences which provide new opportunities for researchers. Explaining legal pluralism simply by mapping its coexistence as entities with clearly defined boundaries is no longer viable. Researchers now have a golden opportunity to reconstruct events in a multi-spatial manner, transcending the boundaries of space and time.

Abstract

This edition marks the end of 2025 and presents articles on seemingly unrelated themes but reveal various aspects of our current legal system and society. In several countries, including Indonesia, autocratic legalism has emerged as a governing practice. Indonesia's political elite do not obey the law, but instead change and manipulate the law in the name of the people to legitimise their power. Various policies continue to be enacted without a scientific basis or evidence-based data, and without considering their impact on people, especially the poor and vulnerable. State institutions are also systematically weakened because they operate without opposition when political parties form coalitions with the government, and there is no system of checks and balances. Rather than being obeyed, the law is used as a tool to maintain authoritarianism.

Abstract

This article examines how courts lack uniform judicial standards for determining Upah Proses, which refers to wages payable during termination proceedings in Indonesia. Constitutional Court Decision No. 37/PUU-IX/2011 requires employers to pay Upah Proses until courts issue a final and binding judgment. However, subsequent instruments introduce conflicting limitations and ambiguous provisions, including Supreme Court Circular Letter No. 3 of 2015 and Law No. 6 of 2023. Such inconsistencies create normative disharmony across constitutional, statutory, and administrative frameworks. The absence of coherent interpretive guidance divides the judiciary, leading courts to issue divergent rulings, even in cases with similar factual circumstances. The study examines 117 judicial decisions issued between 2007 and 2023, and analyzes eight representative findings. Interviews with workers and employers show how legal uncertainty impacts the parties involved. The findings show that ad hoc judges, representing worker and employer constituencies, adopt differing orientations that further exacerbate the absence of standardized judicial criteria. This fragmentation in judicial reasoning increases workers’ socio-economic vulnerability during protracted litigation. The article advocates for the urgent harmonization of legal norms and clarification of judicial guidelines. Such measures would enhance legal certainty, promote consistent adjudication, and provide stronger protection for workers, who are the structurally weaker party within Indonesia’s industrial relations system.

Abstract

This study investigates the way in which legal pluralism within state law affects perceptions of property rights and land governance in Indonesia. Taking a case of prolonged conflict over land status under a Land Use Permit, or colloquially known as the “Surat Ijo” (re: green card) by the inhabitants of Surabaya, the country’s second-largest city, this research reveals how overlapping and often contradictory legal frameworks within the state system can undermine efforts to unify land administration. This phenomenon, referred to as legal pluralism within state law, captures the contradiction in the state legal framework that has hindered the effectiveness of land unification, and thus affected people’s overall sense of land tenure security. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that people’s notions of citizenship, legal consciousness, and everyday engagement with the law shape their understanding of land ownership and legitimate possession. These factors, in turn, influence how people assert, and mobilize claims to land within a complex legal and political environment.
