Abstract

State legal policy reflects the state's interest in securing national objectives through norms that are enacted, implemented, and enforced for the welfare of citizens, state institutions, and all related entities. Article 1, paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia defines Indonesia as a "state of law," which includes both written and unwritten norms. Among these, laws are created by legislative and executive institutions to regulate state affairs. The hierarchy of regulations places the MPR Decree below the Law, with the Constitution as the highest authority. This study explores the gap in the construction of laws and regulations, focusing on the concept of "Faction," which appears in various laws but not in the Constitution. Through qualitative descriptive analysis and a normative legal approach, this research examines the implications of the 4% national vote threshold for political parties in the General Election, as it relates to the term "Faction" in the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR). This study advocates for the removal of the "Faction" provisions, suggesting that even a single-member political party should not be hindered by the threshold. It proposes that the Constitutional Court could amend laws containing the term "Faction" or incorporate it into the Constitution to ensure greater inclusivity in the legislative process. The findings suggest a need for constitutional amendment to align legislative practices with democratic principles.

Abstract

The Industry 4.0 era, marked by advances in information technology and digitalization, has fundamentally transformed the patterns of industrial relations in Indonesia. One significantly affected aspect is the practice of strikes as a form of collective worker action to demand rights and justice. Whereas strikes were previously associated with physical actions carried out directly at the workplace, digital forms of strikes have now emerged such as mass logouts, deactivating work application accounts, and mobilizing protests through social media. This transformation presents new challenges in regulation, implementation, and legal protection. Existing legal instruments, such as Law Number 13 of 2003 on Manpower and its implementing regulations, have yet to fully accommodate the dynamics of digitally-based strikes. This gap creates the potential for a legal vacuum and uncertainty in the enforcement of both workers’ rights and employers’ obligations. This article aims to analyze the legal dynamics of strikes in the digital era, focusing on the adequacy of the current normative framework, identifying regulatory gaps, and proposing necessary legal reforms. Using a normative approach and case studies particularly regarding strikes by online motorcycle taxi drivers in Indonesia this paper recommends the formulation of more responsive and inclusive regulations for non-conventional strike forms. This study is expected to offer both academic and practical contributions toward creating a labor law system that is adaptive, fair, and capable of ensuring a balance of interests between workers and employers in the digital age.

Abstract

Transnational financial crimes that jeopardize national security and the stability of the financial system include money laundering and financing terrorism. Although Indonesia has a comprehensive legal framework, such as Law No. 8 of 2010 and Law No. 9 of 2013, practices on the ground show that there are still gaps in the implementation of regulations that affect the effectiveness of financial institutions in carrying out their supervisory functions. This study aims to analyze the extent to which regulatory gaps affect the performance of financial institutions, as well as to formulate strategies that can be applied to strengthen their authority in dealing with evolving financial crime methods, including through cryptocurrency and financial technology. Using a normative juridical method with a legislative and conceptual approach, data is analyzed from existing regulations, legal literature, and related policies. The results of the analysis indicate that regulatory harmonization, the utilization of supervisory technologies, and enhanced inter-institutional coordination are the main strategies to strengthen the money laundering and terrorism financing prevention system in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the dynamics of mining policy in Indonesia from the colonial era to the modern era, focusing on regulatory changes, their impact on the national and regional economies, and the challenges in managing mining resources. The research method used is a normative juridical method with a legislative approach (statute approach) and a historical study involving an analysis of various legal regulations, from the Indische Mijnwet 1899 to the latest Minerba Law. The results show that Indonesia’s mining policies have undergone significant changes, from colonial exploitation that benefited the Dutch East Indies government, to post-independence nationalization facing technological and capital limitations, and to openness to foreign investment during the New Order era, which accelerated the growth of the mining industry but led to regional economic imbalances and environmental degradation. Reform brought decentralization of authority to regional governments, which, on one hand, increased local revenues but also caused governance issues due to weak oversight. To address this, the government regained full control over the mining sector through the Minerba Law to ensure effective management and legal certainty for investors. However, the main challenge still faced is how to balance national interests, regional welfare, and environmental sustainability so that mining resources can be managed fairly and sustainably.

Abstract

Foreign investment plays a crucial role in supporting Indonesia's economic growth, especially in strategic sectors such as mineral and coal mining, which contribute extensively to state revenues and job creation. As a sector with a high dependence on capital and technology, the presence of foreign investors is a primary factor in driving the exploration, production, and processing of natural resources. This study seeks to evaluate the extent to which legislative protection is provided to foreign investment in the mining sector, especially in the transition from the Work Contract (KK) and Coal Mining Business Work Agreement (PKP2B) to the Special Mining Business License (IUPK). By using normative legal research methods through a literature approach, this study examines various key regulations governing foreign investment in the mining sector, including the cooperation required between foreign investors and domestic capital. The research findings show that the regulatory transition policy has changed the dynamics of foreign investment in this sector, especially with the divestment obligations and cooperation requirements with national business entities, which aim to increase government control and encourage the independence of the domestic mining industry. However, the existing regulations that serve as basic guidelines for foreign investment remain challenging, as legal uncertainty, dynamic policy changes, and advanced fiscal burdens continue to be core issues for foreign investors in maintaining the stability and sustainability of their businesses in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study analyzes in depth the implementation of restorative justice (RJ) in the crime of killing a person in Indonesia from an economic perspective. Using qualitative methods with normative legal and conceptual approaches, and secondary data analysis, this study examines the potential benefits and challenges of implementing RJ in murder cases. The results of the analysis show that RJ has the potential to offer social and economic benefits—such as better victim recovery, potential reduction in long-term criminal justice system costs, and reduced recidivism—compared to retributive approaches. However, its implementation in Indonesia faces significant obstacles, including regulatory fragmentation, institutional resistance, public perception, and limited resources and local empirical data. While immediate cost savings may be limited for serious cases, the potential long-term socio-economic benefits of recovery and social cohesion could be substantial. Effective implementation requires legal harmonization, resource investment, paradigm shift, and the development of clear guidelines. The findings of this study highlight the economic and social potential of implementing restorative justice (RJ) in Indonesia’s criminal justice system, particularly in cases of homicide. From an economic perspective, RJ could reduce the long-term costs associated with the criminal justice process, such as incarceration and administrative expenses, by focusing on rehabilitation and reintegration of offenders.

Abstract

The rapid development of information technology in Indonesia also increases the risk of personal data theft through digital media. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of legal protection for victims of personal data theft based on the legal framework applicable in Indonesia, and compare it with data protection systems in other countries. The method used is normative juridical with conceptual and comparative approaches. The results show that legal protection for victims in Indonesia still faces serious challenges, especially related to weak law enforcement, limited supervisory institutions, and not optimal recovery mechanisms. Data leakage cases that occurred throughout 2025, such as incidents on digital financial and health service platforms, show that victims' rights have not been fully protected effectively. In comparison, regulations such as GDPR in the European Union and PDPA in Singapore show a more proactive and pro-user system. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen national policies through the enactment and implementation of the Personal Data Protection Law, increase the capacity of law enforcement, and synergize across sectors to create a safe and equitable digital ecosystem.

Abstract

Road infrastructure plays a crucial role in supporting economic growth, particularly in agrarian and resource-rich regions. This research aims to conduct a comparative analysis of rigid and flexible pavement types in terms of cost efficiency and construction duration on the Sambeng–Kedewan road segment in Bojonegoro Regency. Utilizing the MDPJ 2017 method for flexible pavement design and Pd T-14-2003 for rigid pavement, this research employs a quantitative descriptive-comparative approach to analyze structural thickness, estimated construction costs, and implementation timelines for both 20- and 40-year design life spans. Primary data were collected through field surveys, including Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) tests for subgrade CBR values, while secondary data were sourced from government agencies and technical literature. Traffic load analysis was performed using ESA5 (Equivalent Standard Axle 5-ton) and JSKN (Number of Commercial Vehicle Axles) parameters, and cost efficiency was evaluated through RAB (Cost Budget Plan) and life cycle cost analysis (LCCA). Findings from various case studies and technical assessments indicate that although rigid pavement involves higher initial investment, it offers greater longevity and lower maintenance expenses in the long term. This research provides crucial insights for local governments in determining the most efficient pavement type under limited budgets and strict construction timeframes. The results are expected to serve as a reference for future infrastructure planning in similar rural and agricultural regions.

Abstract

This research presents a comparative analysis of the cost and construction time between flexible and rigid pavement structures on the Siwalanpanji-Kemiri road section in Sidoarjo Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The area is undergoing a functional shift from rural to industrial, necessitating durable infrastructure to accommodate increasing heavy vehicle traffic. Using the 2024 Indonesian Pavement Design Manual (MDPJ), the research evaluates the technical and economic viability of both pavement types over 20-year and 40-year service lives. Key parameters include Average Daily Traffic (ADT) projections, Cumulative Equivalent Single Axle Load (CESAL), and subgrade strength derived from Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) tests. These inputs inform pavement thickness designs and cost estimates based on local unit prices (HSPK). Findings reveal that flexible pavement offers faster construction (9 days vs. 39–49 days for rigid) but incurs 38% higher long-term costs due to frequent maintenance. Rigid pavement, despite longer initial construction time, proves more economical over 40 years, with lower maintenance needs and superior durability under heavy loads. Cost analysis shows rigid pavement saves up to IDR 3.5 billion compared to flexible alternatives over four decades. The study also highlights the sustainability benefits of reusing existing materials, aligning with environmental goals. These results provide actionable insights for the Sidoarjo Public Works Agency, emphasizing rigid pavement as the optimal choice for industrializing corridors. The research underscores the importance of life-cycle cost analysis and context-specific design in infrastructure planning, offering a model for similar regions facing rapid urbanization and traffic growth.

Abstract

The fashion industry continues to evolve in line with growing awareness of sustainability and changing economic conditions, which has led to the emergence of the thrifting business phenomenon. This study aims to analyze consumers' perceptions and purchasing decisions regarding thrift products, as well as identify the factors influencing purchasing decisions, such as price, quality, sustainability, and social and cultural aspects, to provide insights into the dynamics of the thrifting market as part of a sustainable lifestyle in the modern era. The study employs a qualitative approach using descriptive analysis and thematic data analysis of informants comprising consumers and business operators. The theory applied in this research is consumer decision-making according to Philip Kotler & Kevin Lane Keller (2009: 184). The results indicate that consumer perceptions directly influence interest in purchasing thrift products, influenced by economic factors, awareness of sustainability, and individual style preferences.
