Abstract

The Electronic Information and Transaction Law (UU ITE) is a problem for several groups, namely activists, pro-democracy groups, academics and students. The ITE Law specifically regulates digital law in Indonesia. This research will answer how civil society groups have demanded a revision of the ITE Law since 2016. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. In addition, this research is based on data collected from various mass media, scientific research journals, v-dem datasets and reports from Non-Government Organizations such as SAFEnet. The results of this study conclude that the ITE Law does not resolve conflicts that occur in the online domain, but adds to existing conflicts, as evidenced by the existence of virtual politics and digital repression. The civil society movement demanding the revision of the ITE Law has had a positive impact on democracy. Meanwhile, the government that passed the ITE Law showed a trend of stagnation and a decline in democracy because it showed poor rule of law.

Abstract

The emergence of the pseudo-state Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES) or better known as Rojava in 2014 became an alarm for the emergence of a new form of political entity that transcends the form of the Westphalian nation- state. The democratic confederalism system is seen as very close to the thought of anarchism which rejects all forms of hierarchy including the nation-state system and upholds equality between human beings. YPJ is a women's armed forces unit in Rojava that adheres to the idea of Jineology –an idea of gender equality from Abdullah Ocalan which is also integrated into the democratic confederacies system. The magnitude of the role of YPJ in the process of Rojava's resistance to the nation-state and capitalism made the writer interested in analyzing YPJ resistance using the Anarcha-Feminism theory to determine the effect of the theory on YPJ resistance. Anarcha-Feminism was chosen because it can be a synthesis between class struggle, women's liberation, and the deconstruction of the nation-state political system. This research will also review and describe the role of women in post-conflict development in Rojava, particularly regarding their involvement in the economy, education, social, military, and public decision-making through the perspective of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Socialization efforts to increase understanding of the green campus program are still lacking. Lack of preparedness for mediators between leaders and the lowest stakeholders. Several aspects of the 6 green campus criteria need to be improved to achieve the target. Internalization of green campus values ​​among campus residents is still lacking, especially among lecturers and students.

Abstract

The assessment of services that can bring satisfaction to the community often relies on the examination of service quality. This research specifically delves into the quality of public services for individuals with disabilities within Tangerang City's Disdukcapil. The primary objective is to ensure the realization of the rights of individuals with disabilities by receiving optimal public services, thus preventing discrimination. The study adopts the Quality-of-Service theory as proposed by Zeithaml, Parassuraman, and Berry (Pasolong 2017). Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach, the research incorporates analysis through interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The findings reveal that, according to Zeithaml, Parassuraman, and Berry's model (Pasolong 2017) measuring public service quality, the services provided by Tangerang City's Disdukcapil for individuals with disabilities have not reached an optimal level. This assessment is based on evaluations of various dimensions of public service quality, including:i) Tangible: Facilities, infrastructure, and amenities remain inadequate, and cleanliness in the service office is yet to be addressed; ii) Reliability: Document preparation procedures lack clarity and organization within the service office; iii) Responsiveness: Employees exhibit a lack of responsiveness when dealing with visitors with disabilities and lack proficiency in sign language; iv) Empathy: Some employees still display unfriendliness when providing services.In essence, the study underscores areas where improvements are needed to enhance the quality of public services for individuals with disabilities in Tangerang City's Disdukcapil.

Abstract

Based on Law Number 25 of 2009, it can be interpreted that the Government is obliged to serve the rights and needs of the community as citizens through public services. To achieve better public services, the Government innovates services through Public Service Malls (MPP) so that everyone can access government services easily and quickly without exception. One of the Public Service Malls (MPP) is held in Tangerang City, the research locus. Implementing this service innovation is directed at public satisfaction with government services. In conducting this research was carried out using descriptive quantitative methods. This research also has limitations, namely in discussing how high the quality of service is at the Tangerang City Public Service Mall (MPP) and carried out on the population of people using the Tangerang City Public Service Mall (MPP) with a total of 74,422 users. Sampling was conducted using the Slovin formula with a MoR of 10%, namely 100 respondents. This research also aims to prove the magnitude of the influence that the implementation of QRIS has on purchasing interest. To support this, respondents were determined as one of the instruments, namely using the Purposive Sampling Technique. This research shows that the Public Service Quality score at the Tangerang City Public Service Mall reached a value of 75% or obtained a percentage result of more than 60%. Of course, it is necessary to provide supporting facilities such as digital services, facilities for pregnant women or people with disabilities, a clean MPP environment, and increased human resources for service staff. The 75% service quality score at the Tangerang City Public Service Mall (MPP) was also declared good.
