Abstract

This study investigates the influence of international human rights advocacy on state practices in Indonesia and Malaysia. The research uses a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative analysis of human rights indicators and qualitative analysis of case studies and interviews. The findings show successes and challenges in the relationship between advocacy efforts and state behavior in both countries. The quantitative analysis shows improvements in certain areas, such as gender equality in Indonesia and legislative reform in Malaysia, while challenges remain in terms of freedom of expression, religious freedom, and minority rights. The qualitative analysis provides deeper insights, highlighting the important role of advocacy in raising awareness, promoting accountability, and pressuring governments to address human rights violations. However, barriers to effective implementation exist due to political resistance and societal divisions. A comparative analysis between Indonesia and Malaysia shows similarities and differences, with Indonesia showing a greater response to reform and Malaysia showing resistance that limits freedoms. This research contributes to the field by emphasizing the need for context-specific analysis and tailored approaches to address human rights challenges.

Abstract

Bullying is still a major problem that affects students' academic achievement and general well-being throughout the world. This study explores the functions of schools, parental responsibility, and legislative frameworks in addressing and preventing bullying within the particular setting of junior high schools in Indonesia. The study evaluates the frequency and forms of bullying, the efficacy of school-based interventions, the influence of parental engagement, and the advantages and disadvantages of the legal framework using a mixed-methods approach that includes surveys and interviews. According to quantitative research, bullying is occurring at alarming rates, with verbal bullying being the most common type. Although schools have anti-bullying policies in place, their execution might use some work. The important role that parents play is highlighted by positive correlations between lower incidence of bullying and parental involvement. Parents, teachers, and school administrators' qualitative observations offer a comprehensive perspective of the potential and obstacles in combating bullying. Evidence-based recommendations, such as strengthening school-based treatments, raising parental involvement, and improving the legislative framework, are informed by the integration of quantitative and qualitative findings. This study adds to the current conversation about bullying by offering perspectives specific to the Indonesian setting.

Abstract

Interfaith marriage raises legal issues that require special attention, even though they are considered sacred in religious communities in Indonesia. The study aims to determine how Indonesia's positive laws and religion view marriage between people of different religions. Normative juridical and descriptive-analytical were used to conduct this research. After being obtained from library materials and secondary data, the data is analyzed qualitatively to obtain deductive conclusions. The study found that Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage stipulates marriage rules in Indonesia. It states that each spouse's religious beliefs determine whether the marriage is valid or not. Furthermore, Law Number 16 of 2019, which amends Law Number 1 of 1974, sets the age limit at which a person can marry. However couples with different religious backgrounds often face problems. Religions have different views on marriage. These concepts affect the legal status of marriage. The law affects the status and position of children, marital status, and administration of residence. Therefore, a deep understanding of positive religious and legal perspectives is necessary to resolve these legal issues in a fair and balanced manner.
