Abstract

The situation in the Middle East is complicated by the need for Turkey to formulate a new military and political strategy . Relations between the Kurds and Turkey since the collapse of the Ottoman caliphate have been strained by the Kurds' desire for autonomous power. Until now, Kurds are still struggling to gain this legitimacy and are transforming into radical and separatist groups. Turkey under Erdogan's leadership underwent political reform from secular to democratic Islam. This includes changing Turkey's strategy to deal with Kurdish militias in Syria because Kurdish militias in Syria are considered dangerous by forming the PKK. The PKK occupies Syria's border with Turkey, so Erdogan devised a special military and political- strategic framework to stem the power of Kurdish militias. Since Turkey was ruled by Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey's foreign policy has used the concept of "strategic depth" which is essential "zero problems with neighbors".  Turkey in the Erdogan era tries to represent a modern and Muslim country that encourages democracy and social justice. This affected the perspective and strategy of Turkey being used to paralyze the Kurds. In the political strategy, Turkey conducts relations with various state and non-state actors to be able to exert influence at the international level. This research aims to know how Erdogan’s foreign policy against Kurd in Syria. This research method is using normative legal research with data analyzing using case approach. This research will explain on; a) The conflict between Turkey and Kurds, b) Characteristics of Erdogan's Government, c) Turkey's Involvement in the Syrian Conflict. This research finding will be the discussion analysis on Turkey's Military and Political Strategy against Kurds in Syria and Implications of Military and Political Strategy.

Abstract

Problems related to efforts to apply the law from the past have seized the attention of the Indonesian people because they are considered a very important phenomenon because it has the potential to have significant implications for Indonesian law which is basically still widely misused by legal practitioners. If viewed from the perspective of legal policy formulation that is correlated with various legal institutions at various levels, the performance of the work shown is categorized as not yet ideal and has not been able to realize the actual target of implementing the law. This encourages people to often express their disappointment through social media. From information and dissemination of social media news, it often develops into public opinion which in the language of social media communication is often called “viral news” which sometimes leads to the encouragement of law enforcement to act no longer because of law enforcement efforts but has become the fulfillment of public satisfaction and tends to ignore legal norms. Social media has made people sometimes change their image in the hope of getting sympathy and favorable public opinion for them so that it often becomes hyperreality, not reality anymore. Hyperreality is a form and state where you cannot distinguish between reality and fantasy. Through this paper, the researcher tries to do mini research through the socio-legal method where through this method the author seeks to explore further and at the same time explore law enforcement by not only based on the study of legal norms or doctrines, but also trying to see the full context of norms and their application. This study is solely aimed at providing an overview to the justice-seeking community that in the midst of uncertainty and rampant politicization of law enforcement, social media can be used as a force of coercion (pressure) as a means of law enforcement with justice.

Abstract

The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia in Article 28 H paragraph 1 states that a good and healthy environment is a human right and a constitutional right for every Indonesian citizen. The form of environmental protection is then accommodated, one of which is Article 88 of Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management (UU PPLH) through the Strict Liability principle or what is called absolute liability for every party who pollutes and destroys the environment caused by Hazardous and Toxic Materials (B3) and waste of Hazardous and Toxic Materials without the need to prove of the element of fault first. However, after the enactment of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation, absolute liability for perpetrators of environmental destruction was lost because the phrase “without the need to prove of an element of fault” was abolished so that accountability was based on mistakes (liability based on fault). The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of eliminating the principle of strict liability in the settlement of environmental disputes in Indonesia. The research method used is normative legal research using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Based on the results of the study, it shows that the abolition of strict liability in the Environmental Protection and Management Law will burden victims in environmental disputes, especially ordinary people, to ask for accountability because of the complexity of proving the element of error in industrial activities that use high technology and are related to Hazardous and Toxic Materials (ultrahazardous activity dan abnormally dangerous).   Keywords: Job Creation, Liability Based on Fault, Environmental Dispute, Strict Liability

Abstract

Cryptocurrency is a centralised network currency system that can connect users without intermediaries or third parties such as banks or governments. Countries globally have different attitudes in drafting regulations regarding cryptocurrencies; some accept, reject, or are neutral. The application of cryptocurrency as a payment medium has not yet been regulated in Indonesian legal jurisdiction. However, cryptocurrencies have various opportunities that can positively impact the country's economy. Indonesia must face various challenges in implementing cryptocurrency as payment. This study examines the opportunities and challenges of implementing cryptocurrency as a payment medium by using a responsive legal theory review. The study was carried out using doctrinal research methods. Indonesia's cryptocurrencies currently do not have a lex specialist (particular regulation). However, the application of cryptocurrency as a payment medium can increase e-commerce transactions, have a payment system with high confidentiality and security, and fast, precise, and low-cost transactions. The challenges that must be implemented are developing institutions and legal constitutions that regulate cryptocurrencies as a payment medium, developing blockchain systems and their application in cellular technology.
