Abstract

This research investigates the intricate interplay between freedom of expression, access to information, political participation, and the protection of political rights in Indonesia through a quantitative analysis. A sample of 1500 respondents from diverse demographics was surveyed, and the data were subjected to confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. The findings reveal strong positive relationships between freedom of expression, access to information, political participation, and the protection of political rights. The measurement model demonstrated robust psychometric properties, and discriminant validity was confirmed. While the model fit was acceptable, ongoing refinement is suggested. The R-Square value indicates that approximately 60.2% of the variance in the protection of political rights can be explained by the selected variables. The study contributes to the understanding of democratic governance in Indonesia, emphasizing the pivotal role of information, expression, and civic engagement in safeguarding political rights.

Abstract

This paper analyzes how the public domain  conception applied in the provisions of Intellectual Property Rights is used by foreign parties in an attempt to hinder the protection  of Traditional Cultural Expressions (TCEs) in a country, because of the potential economic benefits resulting from their use, this condition is clearly very vulnerable to misappropriation committed by foreign parties, destruction of cultural values, and exploitation. This study also aims to find out how countries, especially Indonesia, provide protection for Traditional Cultural Expressions. Because of the importance of protecting Traditional Cultural Expressions, doctrinal and comparative research is directed at finding problem solvers. After conducting research, the public domain should not be placed on Traditional Cultural Expressions because it would violate the secret character of many intangible, sacred, and secret elements that living things have to cultural heritage and would highlight the deterioration and unauthorized appropriation of cultural values. And some countries have regulated the protection of Traditional Cultural Expressions in different ways through IPR regimes or sui generis. However, there is a need for  a model law in the form of collective agreements between countries to protect Traditional Cultural Expressions owned by indigenous peoples or owning communities.

The occurrence of various cases of environmental pollution is a reflection of the lack of corporate responsibility towards the environment, hence the need for environmental law enforcement. The formulation of the problem in this study is: 1). How is the enforcement of environmental criminal law against corporations after the enactment of Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management?; 2). What legal obstacles arise in criminal practice if corporations pollute the environment after the enactment of Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management? This research is normative legal research. The findings in this study show that the implementation of law enforcement is still weak, meaning that the subjective policy of law enforcement to continue criminal acts to further proceedings. Conditions like this are used as opportunities for corporations to do as they want and seek the maximum profit. Therefore, law enforcement must be firm and consistent.

Obstacles to the Human Resource Capability of Law Enforcement is Still Limited; b). Environmental Enforcement Has Not Been a Priority; c). Obstacles to coordination between agencies in handling environmental crimes; d). Obstacles to Law Enforcement Professionalism; e).
