Abstract

Corporate governance plays a pivotal role in fostering transparency, accountability, and sustainable economic development, particularly in developing countries. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis using data from Scopus and VOSviewer to explore the academic discourse on corporate governance with a focus on regulatory and policy developments. The analysis reveals "corporate governance" as the central theme, with strong connections to "developing countries," "corporate social responsibility," and "firm performance." Key findings highlight the significance of regulatory frameworks, transparency, and board structures in enhancing governance practices, while also emphasizing the growing integration of corporate governance with strategic dimensions such as market performance and corporate strategy. Despite these advancements, gaps in the literature remain, particularly concerning the role of informal institutions, cultural influences, and technological innovations in governance. This study underscores the need for tailored governance frameworks that address the unique challenges of developing countries while aligning with global best practices. These insights provide valuable directions for policymakers, practitioners, and scholars aiming to enhance corporate governance in emerging economies.

Abstract

Prisoners’ right to vote in The Gambia continues to be a less challenged issue both in practice and in theory in state politics since it regained independence. This research assesses state on prisoners’ right to vote and how this defines the state’s governance system towards prisoners from international human rights perspective. An analysis of this issue in the state since it regained political independence reveals how casual academics and policymakers approach it. This piece, therefore, examines human rights perspective on this right and the state’s obligation to prisoners. The quest for the realization of human rights by the citizenry goes in tandem with the state’s obligation to cease to violate such rights, to ensure their protection, promotion, and respect it. It avails the difference between a right and a privilege and submits that voting is not a privilege but essentially a political right. A qualitative research approach is used by re-examinig and analyzing books, articles and other relevant national and international instruments that are relevant to this work. It finally submits that The Gambia needs to undergo a reformed process in terms of state institutions, and amendment of legal instruments including the Election Act (ius constitutum) to become a law (ius constituendum) that creates equality among the people. The Constitution is both a political and legal instrument, the rights of the prisoners should be empowered by it to address the approach used through the Election Act to limit the political right of prisoners to vote.

Abstract

The paper will attempt to discuss illegal fishing in Indonesia from a legal framework and law enforcement perspective and its implications for the protection of maritime sovereignty. Based on this, the research will apply a normative juridical approach, studying in detail the laws, regulations, and practices of enforcement and the various challenges and opportunities arising out of them. Indnesia legal framework through the Fisheries Law no 45 of 2009 and the Presidential Decree no. 115 of 2015 set a good backbone regarding IUU fishing activities; still, poor enforcement is highly seen due to shortcomings in limited resources, corruption, fragmented jurisdiction, and less international cooperation. The paper analyses these discrepancies and assesses Indonesia's current legislation and the efforts carried out on tackling IUU in comparison to relevant international practices. It also gives some recommendations on how to strengthen the legal definition, mechanisms of enforcement, increasing resource allocations, and improvement in international cooperation. The result shows that integrated efforts with more transparency and accountability are needed in order to properly protect Indonesia's maritime sovereignty effectively.

Abstract

This research reviews labor law's role in the settlement of disputes in industrial relations within a normative juridical perspective in Indonesia. The research focuses on workers' rights and employers' obligations under Indonesia's labor legislation, mainly Undang-Undang No. 13 Tahun 2003 (the Labor Law). The study examines dispute resolution mechanisms, such as negotiation, mediation, and arbitration through the PHI, their effectiveness in protecting workers' rights, and how well employers adhere to the law. From the results, it is learned that negotiation and mediation are effective at the starting stage, but due to power imbalance and delayed processing in the judicial system, comprehensive settlements could not be achieved. Moreover, inconsistent court decisions, weak enforcement of workers' rights, and lack of adequate union representation remain critical. Concluding, the paper provides recommendations on how Indonesia can better settle labor disputes by strengthening mechanisms for mediation and arbitration, enhancing judicial capacity, and effective enforcement of workers' rights.

Abstract

The paper discusses civil liability for environmental damages in Indonesia, considering the carbon trading mechanisms role in promoting corporate responsibility. Hence, this research has adopted a normative approach, analyzing the existing juridical framework that governs environmental damage and discussing to what extent carbon markets, among other emissions trading systems or carbon taxes, can serve complementary functions of incentivizing corporations toward environmentally responsible behavior. The study identifies loopholes within Indonesia's legal system, particularly for the enforcement of environmental liability laws, and discusses how carbon trading could supplement these deficiencies through financial incentives for reducing emissions. The results show that while the mechanisms of carbon trading hold great potential to promote corporate responsibility, their effectiveness relies on robust market infrastructure, sound systems of monitoring and verification, and integration with existing policies on the environment. The study also finds that to enhance corporate environmental accountability in Indonesia, a combination between legal liability and market-driven incentives is essential.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data Analytics has transformed various sectors, including law enforcement and criminal investigation. This study aims to explore how Indonesian law enforcement agencies are utilizing AI and Big Data to combat drug trafficking networks. Using a qualitative approach, data was collected through in-depth interviews with five key informants, including law enforcement officials, legal experts, and technology practitioners. The results show that AI technologies, such as predictive analytics, surveillance systems, and facial recognition, have enhanced intelligence gathering, suspect identification, and crime pattern analysis. However, challenges remain, including limited technological infrastructure, lack of trained personnel, legal and ethical concerns, and weak inter-agency coordination. By examining global best practices from countries like the United States, China, and the European Union, the study provides recommendations to improve Indonesia's capacity in using AI and Big Data for drug enforcement. The findings contribute to theoretical frameworks such as Routine Activity Theory and Crime Pattern Theory, emphasizing the proactive role of technology in crime prevention. Strengthening infrastructure, legal frameworks, and collaboration across agencies is essential for the effective integration of AI and Big Data in Indonesia's war on drugs.
