Abstract

The development of blockchain technology and smart contracts has presented a new paradigm in contract practice, including in mineral commodity sales and purchase transactions, which are highly complex and potentially subject to significant disputes. This study aims to analyze the legal status of smart contracts in the Indonesian legal system, identify the challenges to their application in the mining sector, and formulate a legal framework that adapts to technological developments. The method used is a normative juridical approach, employing statutory, conceptual, and comparative analyses of the Civil Code, the Electronic Information and Transactions Law, and mining regulations. The results of the study indicate that smart contracts do not fully meet the requirements of contract law, particularly regarding consent and the parties' understanding of the code. Furthermore, there are conflicts with contractual principles such as good faith and flexibility in the face of force majeure. The implications for the concepts of default and legal liability have also shifted due to the automated nature of smart contracts. Nevertheless, this technology has the potential to increase transaction efficiency and transparency. This study recommends a hybrid contract model that combines legal codes and texts, and also calls for regulatory harmonization to accommodate the use of smart contracts in the mining sector.

Abstract

This research examines the collaborative governance process in implementing inclusive education programs at the junior high school (SMP) level in the city of Surabaya. The research background stems from the gap between the increasing number of children with special needs and the limited inclusive education services available, where of the 661 junior high schools in the city of Surabaya, only 66 have inclusive school status. This research aims to analyze the collaborative governance process in implementing inclusive education programs at the junior high school level in the city of Surabaya. Using descriptive qualitative research methods, data was obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation at the Surabaya City Education Office, SMP Negeri 36 Surabaya, SMP Negeri 55 Surabaya, and SMP Galuh Handayani Surabaya. The research results show that collaborative governance in inclusive education in the city of Surabaya has gone quite well. This is demonstrated by the existence of clear regulations (Perwali No. 52 of 2022), the formation of the Inclusion Working Group and Disability Service Center, facilitative leadership from the Education Office and school principals, as well as a collaborative process involving face-to-face dialogue, building trust, mutual commitment, mutual understanding, and the results of collaboration in the form of increasing access and quality of inclusive education services. However, there are obstacles in the form of limited Special Assistant Teachers (GPK) and the unbalanced expansion of policies with the availability of supporting resources.

Abstract

Stakeholder Analysis in the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) Policy in Bangkalan Regency is the focus of this study. The MBG program is a national strategy for community nutrition fulfillment inaugurated in 2025 to address stunting prevalence and improve human resource quality. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation in Bangkalan Regency. Using Freeman's (1984) Stakeholder Analysis framework with a power–interest matrix, the study identifies SPPG Kodim 0829 as a key player (Manage Closely), OPD as Keep Informed, DPRD as Keep Satisfied, and beneficiaries as Subjects. Findings show the program has reached 2,345 beneficiaries with positive impacts on nutrition, learning motivation, and household economy. However, four structural challenges exist: risk burden imbalance on SPPG, weak horizontal coordination, absent integrated information systems, and lack of regional regulations formalizing stakeholder roles.

Abstract

The problem of plastic waste is one of the environmental challenges faced by various regions in Indonesia, including the city of Pekanbaru. The increase in population and community activities causes the generation of plastic waste to continue to increase from year to year. Wonorejo Village, Marpoyan Damai District is one of the areas that faces waste management problems so an effective handling program is needed. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of plastic waste handling programs in reducing waste generation in Wonorejo Village, Marpoyan Damai District, Pekanbaru City. This study uses a Public Administration approach with the theory of effectiveness of the Duncan program which includes goal achievement, integration, and adaptation. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach through literature study and analysis of various previous studies. The results of the study show that the effectiveness of the plastic waste management program is influenced by community participation, government support, availability of facilities and infrastructure, and sustainable waste management innovations. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen coordination between actors and increase public awareness to realize effective and sustainable plastic waste management.

Abstract

Early marriage remains a legal and social concern because compliance with the statutory minimum age does not necessarily indicate emotional maturity or readiness to assume marital responsibilities. This study aims to analyze the legal position of insufficient mental readiness among young married couples as a factor contributing to household disharmony and to examine its relationship with economic problems, domestic violence, and divorce. The study employs normative legal research with a descriptive-analytical approach using statutory, conceptual, and literature approaches. Legal materials consist of legislation, court data, books, journal articles, and research findings, which are analyzed qualitatively through deductive reasoning. The study finds that insufficient mental readiness is neither a requirement for the validity of marriage nor an independent legal ground for divorce. Its legal relevance arises when it is manifested in prolonged disputes, neglect of marital obligations, abandonment, or violence. Bali data indicate high numbers of marriage dispensations and divorce cases, although they do not prove a single causal relationship. Economic hardship may intensify family stress, while domestic violence remains a prohibited act with distinct legal consequences. These findings imply the need to strengthen premarital education, psychological readiness assessment, economic planning, and victim protection to prevent household breakdown among couples.

Abstract

The practice of hoarding subsidized fuel oil (BBM) in the Batu Bara Police jurisdiction has increased significantly by 667% over a five-year period (2020-2024), with total estimated state losses reaching Rp1.087 billion. This condition is exacerbated by the geographical location of Batu Bara Regency which borders directly with the Malacca Strait, creating potential for smuggling subsidized fuel to neighboring countries. This study aims to analyze the legal enforcement against subsidized fuel hoarding practices in the Batu Bara Police jurisdiction based on Law Number 22 of 2001 concerning Oil and Natural Gas and Law Number 7 of 2014 concerning Trade. This research uses normative-empirical legal method with a qualitative approach. Data analysis was conducted qualitatively using grammatical, systematic, and teleological interpretations. The results show that the Batu Bara Police uses Article 55 of Law Number 22 of 2001 as the primary legal basis because it is lex specialis, while Article 107 of Law Number 7 of 2014 is applied as a subsidiary legal basis in layered indictment constructions. The application of both laws faces obstacles such as high rates of case file returns (P-19), difficulties in proving the subjective elements of the offense, and inconsistent perceptions between investigators and prosecutors regarding the appropriate indictment construction. Factors affecting enforcement effectiveness are multidimensional, including normative factors (inconsistency between the two laws), institutional factors (limited technical capacity of investigators and weak inter-agency coordination.

Abstract

Legal protection for consumers is an important instrument for realizing legal certainty, justice, and a balanced relationship between consumers and business actors. Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection provides the legal foundation for guaranteeing consumer rights and establishing litigation and non-litigation dispute resolution mechanisms. This study aims to analyze consumer legal protection under Law Number 8 of 1999, the consumer dispute resolution mechanism at the Lembaga Pembela Konsumen Negeri (LPKN), as well as the obstacles encountered and efforts to resolve them. This study employs normative legal research with a descriptive-analytical approach through statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials were obtained through library research and analyzed qualitatively. The results show that Law Number 8 of 1999 has normatively provided legal protection by regulating the rights and obligations of consumers and business actors, as well as dispute resolution mechanisms. In the case examined, LPKN carried out its advocacy and legal assistance functions through litigation. However, the lawsuit was declared inadmissible due to formal defects and an inaccurate construction of the legal basis. The effectiveness of consumer protection remains constrained by issues concerning legal standing, formalistic judicial approaches, low legal awareness, and institutional limitations. Therefore, stronger regulations, legal harmonization, increased institutional capacity, and improved public legal education are necessary to establish a more effective and equitable consumer protection system that provides legal certainty.

Abstract

Discipline enforcement among members of the Indonesian National Police is essential to maintaining professionalism, integrity, and public trust. Provos serves as an internal supervisory element responsible for monitoring and examining disciplinary violations, including within the Mobile Brigade Corps (Brimob), whose duties involve high operational risk and intensity. This study analyzes the authority of the Brimob Provos of the North Sumatra Regional Police in enforcing discipline, its field implementation, and the supporting and inhibiting factors. The research used empirical legal methods with a juridical-sociological approach, supported by interviews and secondary data from regulations, books, journals, and related documents. The results show that Provos authority has a clear legal basis and is implemented in accordance with Police Chief Regulation Number 2 of 2016. Its implementation includes routine supervision, sudden inspections, preliminary examinations, and preparation of examination reports for Authorized Superiors (Ankum). Minor violations are handled through coaching and reprimands, while serious cases are coordinated with Paminal and Bidpropam. Supporting factors include legal clarity, command support, and internal coordination, while obstacles include limited personnel, operational intensity, inadequate facilities, and resistance to internal supervision.

Abstract

Medan, as the third largest metropolitan city in Indonesia, faces multidimensional security challenges, evidenced by a 5.8% increase in criminal cases from 2021 to 2023, totaling 8,247 cases in 2023. On the other hand, the condition of Sabhara's facilities and infrastructure at Medan Police shows an average readiness level of only 72.4% of the ideal requirement. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of Sabhara's duties in maintaining security and public order in Medan City. This research uses empirical legal method with a juridical-empirical approach. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, observation, questionnaires, literature study, and documentation. The research location was the Sabhara Unit of Medan Police with 12 informants selected through purposive sampling, consisting of Sabhara leaders and personnel, community leaders, academics, and public lawyers. Data were analyzed qualitatively through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the implementation of Sabhara's duties at Medan Police has generally been carried out but has not yet reached optimal effectiveness. The preventive function is implemented through routine patrols and dialogical patrols based on crime mapping in three shifts per day, which has proven to provide a real deterrent effect, as evidenced by the reduction in extortion cases in several areas. The repressive function is implemented by prioritizing persuasive approaches before legal action, although there are notes regarding delayed responses in some riot handling cases. The public service function shows positive development, marked by increased public trust in reporting to the police. Internal factors hindering effectiveness include limited personnel disproportionate to the area and city complexity, limited operational facilities and infrastructure with the largest deficit in radio communication systems and CCTV, and the need for competency improvement in dealing with technology-based crimes. External factors include complex socio-economic dynamics, high population density and heterogeneity, and still weak active community participation in the self-help security system. This study concludes that improving Sabhara's effectiveness requires a multidimensional approach encompassing long-term structural reform, namely fulfilling the ideal personnel ratio, modernizing facilities and infrastructure, and increasing operational budgets, as well as short-term operational management improvements through strengthening community policing, more integrated coordination systems, and transparent and accessible public accountability mechanisms for all levels of society.

Abstract

The digital transformation of village government in the Society 5.0 era is one of the government's efforts to improve the quality of public services and village governance based on information technology. This study aims to determine the implementation of digital transformation in village government, supporting and inhibiting factors, and its impact on public services and village governance. This study uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. Research informants consisted of village heads, village officials, village information system operators, and the community. The results show that digital transformation in village government has been implemented through the use of the Village Information System (SID), digital-based administrative services, village websites, and social media as a means of public information. The implementation of this digitalization can increase the effectiveness of public services, accelerate administrative processes, increase government transparency, and facilitate the public in obtaining information and village services. Supporting factors for digital transformation include government support, technology availability, village apparatus competence, and community participation. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include limited internet infrastructure, low digital literacy, budget constraints, and the lack of technological capabilities of village apparatus. Based on the research results, the digital transformation of village government in the Society 5.0 era has an important role in creating a more effective, efficient, transparent, and responsive village government to community needs.
