Abstract

The problem of clean water availability remains a significant issue in various rural areas, including Guwo Village and Garangan Village. Based on the research results, approximately 80% of the people of Guwo Village stated that it was easy to obtain clean water, while in Garangan Village only around 65% felt this convenience, especially experiencing difficulties during the dry season. The objectives of this study are, 1. Analyze the pattern of community empowerment in fulfilling clean water needs in Boyolali Regency 2. Analyze the impact of community empowerment on fulfilling clean water needs. The research method used by this researcher uses a qualitative approach with a sociological juridical research type. The data sources used in this study are primary, secondary and tertiary data sources. The research results show that community participation in Guwo Village is high, resulting in more effective and stable clean water management. Meanwhile, in Garangan Village, community participation is still limited, resulting in unstable water availability, especially during the dry season. The impact of empowerment is evident in improved access to clean water, improved health, and improved social and economic relationships in the community. The theories in this study are 1) Marc Zimmerman's empowerment theory to explain the increase in community capacity and independence. 2) John Kingdon's policy theory to understand the role of policy in supporting clean water supply programs. These two theories are used to analyze the relationship between community participation and policy in the success of the program. The conclusions of this study are: 1) The empowerment pattern in Guwo Village is more organized, while Garangan Village is still self-sufficient. 2) Guwo community participation is higher (80%) than Garangan (60%), so management is more effective. 3) Empowerment improves access to water, health, and the socio-economic conditions of the community.

Abstract

The independence of the prosecutor’s office constitutes an essential element in a democratic rule of law because the institution exercises strategic authority in determining prosecution policy and implementing criminal law enforcement. Differences in constitutional structure, legal traditions, and political systems influence how prosecutorial independence is designed and practiced across countries. This article examines the independence of prosecutorial institutions in Indonesia and Amerika Serikat through a comparative constitutional law approach by analyzing institutional status, prosecutorial powers, legal principles, and mechanisms of accountability within each legal system. The research applies normative legal methods using statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches, supported by primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials analyzed qualitatively through deductive and comparative reasoning. The findings show that prosecutorial independence includes structural, functional, and personal dimensions. In Indonesia, functional independence is formally recognized, yet structural and personal independence remain limited due to the prosecutor’s institutional placement within the executive branch and the hierarchical nature of prosecutorial authority. In contrast, the United States demonstrates relatively stronger structural and functional independence through federal institutional design, decentralized prosecution, and constitutional checks and balances, although risks of politicization remain in certain contexts. Strengthening constitutional guarantees, accountability mechanisms, and merit-based professional systems is therefore necessary to reinforce prosecutorial independence in Indonesia as part of broader democratic legal reform.

Abstract

The internal ethics oversight mechanism of the Indonesian Constitutional Court through the Honorary Council (MKMK) has proven ineffective. Dominated by active judges, it violates the nemo judex in causa sua principle, leading to structural conflicts of interest and lenient sanctions for severe ethical violations. This research aims to analyze the current existence of the Constitutional Court's ethics oversight body and formulate a new institutional design for an external oversight body based on the Integrated Oversight Model (IOM) and checks and balances perspective. This study employs a normative legal research method using statute, conceptual, and case approaches. The findings reveal that MKMK fails to meet the sociological indicators of an ideal institution, acting more as an internal protector than an objective oversight body. To resolve this, the study proposes applying the IOM, which requires returning the constitutional mandate of external oversight fully to the Judicial Commission (KY) as a unified hub. Furthermore, drawing comparative lessons from South Africa’s Judicial Service Commission, the checks and balances principle is integrated by dividing the impeachment authority: the KY acts as the investigative tribunal, while the House of Representatives (DPR) serves as the political decision-maker. In conclusion, the exclusive authority of MKMK must be revoked. Establishing a permanent ethics council under the KY, without active constitutional judges, is highly recommended to guarantee true independence and public accountability.

Abstract

Developments in legal relationships within the corporate world indicate that obligations are no longer limited to contractual relationships alone, but also arise from internal corporate mechanisms, one of which is the distribution of dividends. In practice, issues arise when dividends that have been approved but not yet paid are used as the basis for a bankruptcy petition, leading to a debate over whether dividends can be classified as debt under bankruptcy law. This study aims to analyze the status of dividends as debt under Indonesian bankruptcy law and their relationship to the principle of simplified proof. The research method employed is a normative legal approach using both statutory and case-law analyses, through an examination of the Limited Liability Companies Act, the Bankruptcy Act, and the PKPU, as well as relevant court rulings. The research findings indicate that dividends decided upon by the General Meeting of Shareholders (GMS) and that have become due substantively meet the elements of a debt because they possess economic value, arise from a contractual obligation, are binding, and are enforceable. However, in practice, the application of this concept is not divorced from the principle of simple proof, which is a characteristic of bankruptcy law. If there is a dispute regarding the validity of the GMS, the amount of dividends, or the company’s financial condition that requires complex proof, then filing for bankruptcy becomes inappropriate. Thus, although dividends can be categorized as debt substantively, their use as the basis for a bankruptcy petition must be strictly limited. This restriction is important to prevent the misuse of bankruptcy as a tool for coercion in corporate disputes, as well as to maintain legal certainty, justice, and business continuity, and to ensure balanced protection for creditors and shareholders.

Abstract

This study analyzes the juridical design of regional accountability in disaster management from a welfare state perspective. It examines the accountability system of regional governments based on existing regulations and evaluates its effectiveness. Using a normative juridical method with statute, conceptual, and comparative approaches, the study finds that although the legal framework is formally adequate, its implementation remains administrative and not fully effective. Based on Mark Bovens' theory, weaknesses are found in the lack of measurable indicators, unclear accountability mechanisms, limited public participation, and weak coordination. From a welfare state perspective, the system has not fully ensured the protection of citizens' rights and public welfare. Therefore, strengthening regulations, coordination, and performance-based accountability is necessary.

Abstract

Cannabis is a plant that has medicinal benefits. However, the use of cannabis is prohibited by Indonesian Law Number 35 of 2009 concerning Narcotics, which states that cannabis is a Class I narcotic and cannot be used for medical purposes. This is contrary to the right to obtain health services and the state is obliged to provide them. A number of studies on the medicinal benefits of cannabis plants have created a new debate in Indonesia regarding the relative benefits of constitutional regulation and medical treatment. In other state policies, Thailand has updated its cannabis legalization arrangements, which have had a good impact on several sectors. This paper aims to analyze the regulation of cannabis in Indonesia and in Thailand comparatively, as well as examine the impact of the regulation of cannabis legalization in Indonesia and in Thailand.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the constitutional design of legal protection for journalists in Indonesia from a Human Rights (HAM) perspective. The primary issue addressed is the significant gap between strong constitutional guarantees and the reality on the ground, which reveals high rates of violence and criminalization against journalists. Using a normative legal research method with a statute approach, the results indicate that although Article 28E and 28F of the 1945 Constitution and the ratification of the ICCPR provide a solid normative foundation, current protections remain declarative and lack operational efficacy. This shortfall is caused by regulatory disharmony, where the Press Law is frequently superseded by "elastic clauses" within the ITE Law and the new Criminal Code (KUHP), triggering a chilling effect. Furthermore, the existing protection framework fails to specifically address digital security and gender-based protection. The study concludes that the state, as the duty bearer, must fulfill its due diligence obligations by establishing the Press Law as lex specialis and forming a comprehensive National Protection Mechanism (NPM). Integrating cyber and gender protections is also urgent to ensure press freedom as a pillar of democracy.

Abstract

Deepfakes, which utilize artificial intelligence to produce hyper-realistic audiovisual content in social media advertisements, are increasingly being misused by irresponsible businesses, who are exploiting deepfake technology to create advertising content. This study aims to identify existing regulatory frameworks in Indonesia and consumer legal protection against the misuse of deepfake technology, and to provide recommendations for strengthening the legal system to combat content manipulation by deepfake abuse. This study employs a normative juridical method, employing a statute approach. The data used in this study include both primary and secondary legal materials, including relevant regulations and related literature. The data collection technique used a literature study. The results of the study indicate a legal vacuum and significant difficulties in detecting and proving deepfake violations in social media advertisements. Although regulations exist, the misuse of deepfake technology is not yet explicitly regulated, so legal protection for consumers is not optimal. Consumer legal protection can be provided through two approaches: preventive legal protection and repressive legal protection. The increasingly sophisticated development of AI also increases the risk of misuse that harms consumers and society, necessitating adaptive legal responses to ensure more effective protection in this era of technological advancement. This research is expected to serve as a reference for regulators in developing strategic steps to address the threat of deepfakes.

Abstract

Advances in digital technology increase the risk of misuse of children’s personal data, thereby placing children as a vulnerable group in the digital space. This study aims to analyze the legal protection of children’s personal data under Government Regulation No. 17 of 2025 and compare it with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation. The focus of the study lies on the ability of Government Regulation No. 17 of 2025 to provide protection for children’s personal data. This study employs a normative legal methods using a legislative and comparative law approach. The findings indicate that Government Regulation No. 17 of 2025 has established protections through age limits, parental consent, age verification, supervision, and administrative sanctions. However, these provisions remain focused on administrative compliance and are not yet supported by adequate mechanisms for the restoration of children’s rights, including compensation and data deletion, as well as the absence of an independent supervisory authority. This study recommends strengthening aspects of implementation, institutional framework, and recognition of substantive rights so that the protection of children’s personal data can function optimally.

Abstract

The ever-increasing demand for housing has driven the popularity of residential rental alternatives, yet in practice, these arrangements are often marred by challenges related to property maintenance. This study examines breaches of contract in residential lease agreements at the Topaz Cluster in Gading Serpong, where tenants have failed to maintain the building's physical condition and electronic facilities. The purpose of this research is to analyze the implementation of lease agreements from a civil law perspective and to examine the forms of tenant liability for maintenance breaches based on the principle of good faith. The methodology employed is empirical legal research with a qualitative approach. Primary data was obtained through interviews with homeowners and property consultants, as well as document analysis, while secondary data was collected through a literature review of relevant laws and legal literature. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the agreement in the Topaz Cluster meets the validity requirements of a contract under Article 1320 of the Civil Code. However, the tenant was found to have breached the contract by neglecting maintenance obligations, resulting in structural damage exceeding normal wear and tear as well as damage to the provided electronic facilities. The dispute was resolved through non-litigation procedures. The tenant demonstrated post-contractual good faith by agreeing to cover all restoration costs with personal funds. The study concludes that the principle of good faith functions as an objective standard of conduct and a legal parameter in measuring the responsibility for performance.
