Abstract

This research is based on the importance of raising awareness of democracy in the context of the nation and state, particularly regarding the implementation of the values ​​of the fourth principle of Pancasila among college students. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of students in strengthening democratic awareness, as reflected in the principle of deliberation and consensus, contained in the fourth principle of Pancasila, within the campus environment. The methodology used involved a literature review using a content analysis approach to several written references on democracy and the role of students. The results indicate that students play a significant role as agents of change who implement democratic values ​​through active participation in student organizations, holding general elections on campus, and political education related to democracy. However, several challenges, such as differing perspectives and low collective awareness, need to be addressed through improved democratic education. The benefits of this research are expected to provide academic and practical guidance for the development of civic education and strengthen the role of students as drivers of a healthy and sustainable democracy in Indonesia.

Abstract

Pancasila is the foundation of the state as well as the way of life for the Indonesian nation, playing an important role in maintaining the unity and Integrity of the country. In the era of globalization and rapid advancement in information technology, society faces an influx of information that is not always accurate. Disinformation spread through social media not only causes confusion but also has the potential to divide the nation and erode national values. This study aims to re-examine the importance of strengthening Pancasila values amidst the widespread disinformation and the potential for social division. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive qualitative approach through the analysis of various sources such as scientific journals, books, and official documents relevant to the research topic. The results show that Pancasila values, such as humanity, unity, deliberation, and social justice, play a strategic role in shaping critical, tolerant, and wise attitudes in responding to information in the digital era. Through education, family roles, and positive utilization of digital media, Pancasila values can continue to be reinforced as the moral guideline of the nation. This study is expected to contribute to raising public awareness about the importance of Pancasila as a defense against disinformation and in maintaining the unity of Indonesia.

Abstract

Pancasila, as the foundational ideology of Indonesia, plays a strategic role in maintaining national identity amid the pressures of global constitutionalism, which emphasizes universal values such as human rights, democracy, and the supremacy of law. This study analyzes how Pancasila can synergize with global norms without compromising national sovereignty and collective values. Employing a normative juridical and comparative approach, the research examines key constitutional documents like the 1945 Constitution and the formulation of Pancasila, alongside relevant International legal instruments, supported by a review of national and international literature and policies. The findings demonstrate that Pancasila offers an inclusive and flexible legal paradigm capable of accommodating democratic and human rights values within Indonesia’s unique cultural and social framework. Through principles of deliberation, social justice, and national unity, Pancasila balances national interests and international obligations, distinct from the individualistic models prevalent in Western legal systems. The challenges posed by globalization underscore the need to strengthen Pancasila-based legal policies and education to safeguard sovereignty while enabling Indonesia’s active participation in the global legal order. Thus, Pancasila is not merely an ideological foundation but an adaptive instrument that enhances Indonesia’s position in navigating global complexities. This study contributes a balanced and constructive perspective to Indonesian constitutional literature, emphasizing the harmonization of nationalism and universalism in the global era. This analysis highlights that Pancasila not only anchors Indonesia’s national identity but also provides a resilient and adaptive legal framework capable of engaging with global constitutionalism.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of Pancasila in facing the dynamics of global constitutionalism. Globalization has brought significant challenges to national ideologies, including Pancasila as the foundational philosophy of the Indonesian state. Through qualitative approach with literature study, this research analyzes the position of Pancasila within Indonesia's constitutional system and how its values transform in response to principles of global constitutional governance. The findings indicate that Pancasila undergoes reinterpretation and adaptation of its values without losing its ideological identity. This transformation manifests in human rights law reforms, adjustments to international treaties, and harmonization between Pancasila's collectivist values and global liberal individualism. This research recommends maintaining the flexibility of Pancasila's interpretation while preserving the essence of its noble values, and utilizing Pancasila as soft power in diplomacy and the formation of more just global governance.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the position of Pancasila in the legal context in Indonesia and analyze the judge's decision with the Pancasila corridor. The judge's decision has considerations and a legal basis in it. The legal basis used by judges is the applicable laws and regulations. Meanwhile, we have Pancasila as the source of all legal sources, which means that the position of Pancasila is above the laws and regulations. Pancasila has values that are used as a guideline for community life. Then, how is the position of Pancasila in the development of legal theory and how Pancasila becomes a legal ideal and is used as a basis for deciding a case in court. One of the decisions used in this paper is a decision related to the exoneration clause. The analysis of Decision No. 400/Pdt/2019/PT SBY was conducted using the view of legal formality and the view of legal realism. The analysis was conducted using doctrinal research methods. This article has a novelty, namely criticizing positivism in Indonesia and offering Pancasila as a living law and integrating Pancasila in the case approach in the judge's decision. This article has theoretical implications as an enrichment of legal theory in Indonesia, making Pancasila the basis for the development of Indonesian state legal theory, and strengthening the legal paradigm. The practical implication is that there is an analysis of Pancasila's views in the judge's decision No. 400/Pdt/2019/PT SBY.

Abstract

The discourse on global constitutionalism has expanded significantly in recent decades as scholars and policymakers explore frameworks that promote human rights, the rule of law, democratic governance, and institutional accountability across diverse political systems. While this discourse has been largely shaped by Western liberal traditions, emerging scholarship increasingly acknowledges the relevance of non-Western normative systems in enriching global constitutional debates. In this context, Pancasila—as Indonesia’s foundational philosophical doctrine—presents a distinctive value framework rooted in humanity, social justice, deliberative democracy, and communal harmony. These characteristics position Pancasila as a potentially important contribution to contemporary constitutional thought, particularly in the search for more inclusive and culturally diverse models of constitutionalism.   Existing studies on global constitutionalism tend to focus predominantly on the evolution of liberal constitutional principles and their diffusion into international legal norms. Only a limited number of works have examined how indigenous or non-Western philosophical systems may interact with, complement, or challenge the prevailing paradigm. Even the few studies that discuss Southeast Asian constitutional identity often center on constitutional practice rather than the underlying philosophical foundations that shape state ideology. As a result, the role of Pancasila in global constitutional discourse remains underexplored, leaving a significant gap in the literature regarding how its normative principles may contribute to the theoretical development of global constitutionalism.   This article seeks to address this research gap by offering a systematic analysis of the relationship between Pancasila and the core tenets of global constitutionalism. The novelty of this study lies in its attempt to conceptualize Pancasila not merely as a national ideology but as a value framework with potential universal relevance, especially concerning human dignity, ethical governance, and the balance between individual rights and collective responsibility. By examining Pancasila through a constitutional-theoretical lens, this research aims to highlight how its emphasis on social harmony, deliberation, and moral–ethical governance can enrich the evolving discourse on global constitutional norms.   To achieve these objectives, this study employs a normative–qualitative method that relies on constitutional documents, scholarly literature, and comparative constitutional perspectives. The article is structured into five main sections: the first presents the conceptual foundation of global constitutionalism; the second analyzes Pancasila’s philosophical and constitutional dimensions; the third discusses points of convergence and divergence between Pancasila and global constitutional norms; and the fourth elaborates on the implications of integrating Pancasila into global constitutional discourse. The article concludes by summarizing key findings and offering recommendations for further scholarly engagement.

Abstract

Global constitutionalism has fundamentally shifted the paradigm of disability rights from a charity-based medical model to a rights-based social model, as epitomized by the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). However, the domestication of these global norms in Indonesia often faces friction with local cultural interpretations that still view disability through a lens of pity. This paper aims to harmonize the global standards of the CRPD with the local philosophical foundation of Indonesia, specifically the Second Principle of Pancasila (Kemanusiaan yang Adil dan Beradab). Using a normative legal research method with conceptual and comparative approaches, this study analyzes the compatibility between the "Just and Civilized Humanity" principle and the "Non-Discrimination" principle of the CRPD. The results demonstrate that the Second Principle of Pancasila inherently rejects the charity model, arguing that a "civilized" humanity requires the recognition of rights rather than the granting of compassion. Consequently, Pancasila serves not as a barrier but as a strengthening moral filter for global constitutionalism norms. The study concludes that interpreting disability rights through Pancasila strengthens the mandate for affirmative action and accessibility. Furthermore, this harmonization is crucial to ensure that the legal protection for persons with disabilities is not only formally regulated but also culturally accepted by the Indonesian society. It is recommended that the Constitutional Court utilizes this interpretation in future judicial reviews to abolish discriminatory regulations.
