Background: Government policies play a significant role in shaping the investment climate and, consequently, in driving economic growth. Policies aimed at stimulating investments—such as fiscal incentives, tax policies, and infrastructure development—can significantly influence the flow of capital into various sectors, fostering economic activity and job creation. Conversely, restrictive policies or regulatory inefficiencies can stifle investment and hinder economic development. Understanding the implications of these policies is crucial for policymakers and businesses seeking to maximize economic growth potential. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the impact of government policies on investment decisions and their subsequent effect on economic growth. The research seeks to identify the key policy factors that drive or hinder investment flows and assess their broader implications for long-term economic performance. Method: A mixed-methods approach was employed, utilizing quantitative data analysis of economic indicators and investment flows from government reports, along with qualitative interviews from business leaders and policymakers. The study examines a range of countries with varying policy environments to identify common trends and impacts. Results: The findings suggest that pro-investment policies significantly boost both domestic and foreign investment, leading to higher economic growth rates. In contrast, restrictive policies and regulatory uncertainties were found to negatively impact economic performance. Conclusion: The study concludes that effective government policies are essential for fostering investment and driving sustainable economic growth. Policymakers should prioritize creating stable, investment-friendly environments to achieve long-term economic benefits.

Background: The integration of international law principles into domestic legal systems is a complex and often contentious process. In Indonesia, the implementation of international law principles in national law involves balancing domestic legal norms with the obligations arising from international treaties and conventions. While Indonesia has ratified numerous international agreements, the actual incorporation of these principles into national law remains inconsistent and subject to various interpretations. The tension between adherence to international norms and the sovereignty of national law presents a unique challenge in the application of international law principles within the Indonesian context. Objective: This study aims to examine how international law principles are implemented in Indonesian national law, focusing on the mechanisms, challenges, and effectiveness of their integration. The research seeks to identify key areas where international law is applied or disregarded in Indonesian legal practice and to provide recommendations for improving alignment with international standards. Method: A qualitative research approach was used, combining legal document analysis, case studies, and interviews with legal scholars, policymakers, and practitioners. This allowed for a comprehensive assessment of the practical application of international law principles in Indonesia’s legal system. Results: The study found that while Indonesia incorporates international law principles in specific areas, such as human rights and environmental law, there is often resistance or inconsistency in their implementation, particularly in areas that conflict with national interests. Conclusion: To enhance the effectiveness of implementing international law principles, this study recommends greater institutional cooperation, clearer legal frameworks, and the establishment of stronger enforcement mechanisms.

Background: Narcotics-related crimes continue to be a significant issue worldwide, with prison sentences often viewed as a primary deterrent. However, there is limited empirical evidence regarding the effectiveness of incarceration in reducing the incidence of narcotics crimes. The question remains whether prison sentences lead to long-term reductions in drug-related offenses or merely function as a short-term punitive measure without addressing underlying issues such as addiction and socio-economic factors. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of prison sentences in preventing narcotics crimes, focusing on recidivism rates and rehabilitation outcomes for offenders. The research investigates whether incarceration contributes to long-term crime prevention or if alternative approaches, such as rehabilitation programs, offer more sustainable results. Method: A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data analysis of recidivism rates from convicted drug offenders and qualitative interviews with legal professionals, offenders, and rehabilitation experts. The data collected spans a five-year period and includes case studies from various correctional facilities. Results: The findings indicate that while prison sentences temporarily reduce narcotics crime, they are less effective in preventing recidivism. Rehabilitation programs integrated into the prison system significantly contributed to reducing reoffending rates, particularly when combined with post-release support. Conclusion: Prison sentences alone are insufficient in preventing narcotics crimes. A more comprehensive approach, including rehabilitation and social reintegration efforts, is necessary for long-term success in reducing narcotics-related offenses.

Background: The digital era has brought about significant advancements in technology, leading to an increased reliance on digital platforms for communication, transactions, and daily activities. While these technological advancements provide numerous benefits, they also raise concerns about the protection of citizens’ constitutional rights, particularly in terms of privacy, freedom of expression, and data security. Governments and legal systems face the challenge of ensuring that constitutional rights are upheld in an increasingly digital society, where the lines between public and private spheres are often blurred. Objective: This study aims to examine the protection of citizens’ constitutional rights in the digital era, focusing on the balance between technological innovation and individual rights. The research seeks to assess the effectiveness of existing legal frameworks in safeguarding privacy, freedom of speech, and other fundamental rights in the context of the digital landscape.

The data collected was analyzed to evaluate how well constitutional rights are protected in digital environments and to identify potential gaps in legal protection. Results: The findings indicate that while there are legal frameworks in place to protect constitutional rights, there are significant challenges in keeping pace with technological advancements. Privacy violations, surveillance concerns, and data breaches were highlighted as key issues. Conclusion: The study concludes that existing legal protections must be adapted to address the challenges posed by the digital era, with a focus on strengthening privacy laws, improving data security, and ensuring accountability in digital platforms.

Background: Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) play a pivotal role in the realm of law enforcement and human rights. In recent decades, their influence has expanded significantly, especially in areas where government action is either insufficient or absent. NGOs often bridge gaps in legal and human rights protection by advocating for vulnerable populations, monitoring abuses, and holding governments accountable. Their contributions in law enforcement vary, from providing legal assistance to victims of human rights violations to actively participating in the policy-making process. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the role of NGOs in law enforcement and human rights, with a particular focus on their contributions to legal reforms, advocacy for victims, and international collaborations. The research explores how NGOs influence law enforcement mechanisms and contribute to the advancement of human rights protections across different regions. Method: A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing case studies, interviews with NGO leaders, legal experts, and human rights advocates, and document analysis of reports and legal frameworks where NGOs have had significant influence. Results: The study found that NGOs significantly impact human rights law enforcement, especially in regions with weak legal frameworks. They provide essential resources for victims, influence policy changes, and sometimes fill gaps left by state institutions. However, challenges such as limited funding and political resistance affect their effectiveness. Conclusion: NGOs are indispensable in promoting human rights and enforcing laws in under-served regions. Their role should be enhanced through stronger partnerships with governments and international organizations.

Background: Pretrial procedures play a vital role in testing the legality of arrest and detention, ensuring that individuals' rights are protected against arbitrary detentions. Legal safeguards such as judicial review of arrests are essential in preventing abuses of power by law enforcement agencies. In many jurisdictions, pretrial hearings serve as a critical mechanism to determine whether there is enough evidence to justify continued detention, thus promoting the rule of law and human rights protection. However, the effectiveness of pretrial procedures in safeguarding individuals from unlawful detention remains a topic of debate. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of pretrial hearings in testing the legality of arrest and detention. The research investigates how these procedures influence the protection of individual rights and the overall functioning of the justice system. Method: A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing case studies, legal analysis, and interviews with legal professionals, detainees, and human rights advocates. Data were collected from multiple jurisdictions to assess the impact of pretrial procedures on the legality of detention. Results: The findings suggest that pretrial hearings are an effective mechanism for testing the legality of arrests and detentions, but their application is inconsistent, with some jurisdictions lacking adequate legal frameworks to ensure timely and fair reviews. Conclusion: The study concludes that while pretrial hearings can significantly contribute to the protection of individual rights, improvements in procedural consistency and access to legal representation are needed to enhance their effectiveness.
