Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents new opportunities within legal systems, particularly in the harmonization of laws and regulations, which has long been challenged by complexity, regulatory overlaps, and normative disharmony. This article introduces the concept of AI as Co-Legislator, positioning AI not merely as a technical instrument but as a strategic partner in the process of lawmaking and regulatory harmonization. Through the capabilities of machine learning and natural language processing, AI can analyze thousands of regulations, detect potential normative conflicts, and provide data-driven recommendations to accelerate the creation of effective, efficient, and coherent legal frameworks. This idea aligns with the paradigm of smart lawmaking, which envisions adaptive, responsive, and technology-based legislation that upholds the principles of legal certainty, justice, and utility. The research employs a normative-juridical method with a conceptual approach, combining legal analysis with technological innovation perspectives. The findings suggest that while employing AI as a co-legislator has significant potential to enhance the quality of legal harmonization, ethical, juridical, and institutional challenges must be addressed, including issues of legitimacy, accountability, and data protection. Therefore, integrating AI into the harmonization of laws should be positioned as an innovative step toward building a smart legal system without diminishing the sovereignty of human legislators.

Abstract

The recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have created negative sentiment on oil prices. Indonesia has also been affected as a country that is still quite dependent on oil imports. Although several types of incentives in the RE sector have been implemented in Indonesia over the past few decades their implementation is still not optimal. This paper aims to examine the roles and responsibilities of Indonesian government stakeholders in the formulation, implementation, and oversight of energy-incentive regulations, and to identify UK regulatory best practices that can be adapted to strengthen stakeholder capacity, coordination, and accountability in Indonesia. This research uses normative legal methods with Indonesian and UK legislation as primary sources, supported by journals, reports, and government publications to compare stakeholder involvement in optimizing energy incentives. The best aspect that could be adopted by Indonesia from UK is the establishment of an independent energy regulator. This body is expected to streamline incentive schemes, reduce bureaucratic barriers, and foster investor confidence by integrating consultation, coordination, oversight, and digital transparency.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has transformed the nature of crime and evidence, requiring legal systems to accommodate electronic forms of proof. This study analyzes the admissibility of electronic evidence in Indonesian criminal procedure law and its implications for the protection of privacy, particularly in cases involving the dissemination of sexual content. Using a normative juridical approach, this research examines statutory frameworks, including the ITE Law and its 2024 amendment, the 1945 Constitution, Law No. 20 of 2025 on the new Criminal Procedure Code, and Law No. 27 of 2022 on Personal Data Protection. It also employs a case study of the Pandeglang District Court Decision No. 71/Pid.Sus/2023/PN Pdl to assess the gap between das sollen and das sein. The findings indicate that Indonesia has normatively established a clear legal basis recognizing electronic evidence as valid and binding. However, judicial practice, particularly in cases decided prior to the enactment of the new KUHAP and the Personal Data Protection Law, tends to prioritize evidentiary validity over the protection of victims’ privacy. The Pandeglang case demonstrates that although electronic evidence was lawfully admitted, the absence of procedural safeguards created risks of re-victimization and undermined the victim’s dignity. This study concludes that while the issue of admissibility has been resolved under the current legal framework, challenges remain in ensuring privacy protection in judicial practice. Therefore, courts must adopt rights-sensitive approaches, including closed hearings, anonymization, and proportional use of evidence, to balance evidentiary effectiveness with the protection of fundamental rights in the digital era.

Abstract

This article develops a panarchy-informed blueprint for cross-scale adaptive environmental law under climate turbulence, using panarchy to explain how nested adaptive cycles and thresholds across scales can cause policies that work locally to fail at provincial or national levels, and vice versa. It asks: (1) how statutes can learn across scales without eroding legal certainty or equity; and (2) which design elements enable timely, evidence-based adjustment under climate volatility. Methodologically, the study integrates doctrinal analysis of statutes, regulations, and review practices with comparative case studies of watersheds, forests, and coastal zones, combining system mapping of feedback loops and decision interfaces with process tracing of revision episodes and, where data allow, interrupted time-series evaluation to assess policy timing and effects. Across cases, it evaluates three performance metrics: ecological fit, adaptation lead time, and distributive impact, and finds that robust adaptive capacity increases when learning loops are nested, transparent, and institutionally constrained. The article proposes a modular drafting toolkit comprising threshold-based legal triggers tied to ecological indicators, periodic review with ratchet and sunset clauses, subsidiarity with upward and downward escalation rules, mandatory open-data pipelines, and enforceable safeguards for Indigenous and marginal communities, translating panarchy into actionable legal design principles for accountable adaptation.
