Abstract

Crime is a persistent social phenomenon closely linked to the dynamics of societal life. Its occurrence is influenced by a complex interplay of economic, social, cultural, psychological, and institutional factors. This study aims to examine the determinants of criminal behavior in society and to identify effective strategies for crime prevention. The research employs a normative juridical method with conceptual and sociological approaches, relying on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources collected through literature review. The findings reveal that economic hardship, including poverty and unemployment, serves as a primary driver of criminal activity. In addition, low levels of education contribute to limited legal awareness and reduced employment opportunities, thereby increasing the likelihood of deviant behavior. Social environmental factors, such as peer influence, weak social control, and unfavorable community conditions, further reinforce criminal tendencies. Family-related issues, including lack of supervision and dysfunctional relationships, also play a significant role. Moreover, psychological conditions, ineffective law enforcement, and rapid technological development—particularly in the digital sphere—have expanded opportunities for new forms of crime. This study concludes that crime is a multidimensional issue requiring comprehensive and integrated responses. Effective crime prevention should combine preventive, repressive, and rehabilitative measures, including improving socioeconomic welfare, strengthening education, enhancing law enforcement, and promoting responsible use of technology.

Abstract

Criminal law reform represents a strategic effort to modernize the legal system in response to evolving societal dynamics, particularly in achieving a balance between justice and legal certainty. In Indonesia, the existing criminal law framework, largely influenced by colonial legacies, is often considered inadequate in addressing contemporary legal challenges, including the rise of complex and transnational crimes. This study aims to examine the urgency of criminal law reform from the perspectives of justice and legal certainty and to identify the ideal direction for such reform. The research employs a normative juridical method, utilizing statutory and conceptual approaches through an extensive review of legal doctrines, regulations, and scholarly literature. The findings reveal that criminal law reform is essential to reconcile the tension between substantive justice and formal legal certainty, which often coexist in imbalance within legal practice. The study highlights the importance of integrating restorative justice principles, enhancing the clarity and consistency of legal norms, and strengthening law enforcement institutions to ensure fair and predictable legal outcomes. Furthermore, legal reform must encompass not only regulatory changes but also institutional improvement and the development of legal culture within society. In conclusion, a comprehensive and adaptive approach to criminal law reform is necessary to establish a legal system that is responsive, equitable, and capable of addressing modern societal needs while maintaining legal certainty

Abstract

This study analyzes and optimizes inventory control practices to support the development of efficient and innovative industrial operations through a community service program conducted at PT Dirgaputra Ekapratama, Samarinda Branch. The primary objective is to enhance inventory management control and improve warehouse staff competencies. The study adopts an educational and participatory approach, utilizing semi-structured interviews, direct observation, document analysis, and on-site mentoring to identify operational issues and implement practical solutions. Key problems identified include low frequency of stock opname, absence of continuous recording systems, reliance on manual and non-standardized documentation, and inefficiencies in item handling. Three integrated solutions were introduced: increasing stock opname frequency to twice weekly, implementing standardized stock cards for real-time recording, and introducing barcode technology to improve identification accuracy and operational speed. The results indicate a significant improvement in inventory data accuracy, enhanced recording efficiency, and stronger staff discipline in following procedures. Additionally, the initiative successfully fostered organizational commitment toward adopting technology-based warehouse management systems. Although full implementation of stock cards and barcode systems requires further approval from headquarters, the pilot implementation demonstrated feasibility and effectiveness. The findings highlight that structured procedures, combined with gradual technological adoption and managerial commitment, play a critical role in strengthening internal control systems. This study contributes to practical inventory management improvements and supports sustainable industrial development aligned with efficiency and innovation principles

Abstract

This study examines the influence of work discipline and the utilization of information technology on the effectiveness of public services at the East Pasimasunggu Subdistrict Office, Selayar Islands Regency. Public service delivery in archipelagic regions faces structural challenges, including geographical dispersion, limited infrastructure, and uneven human resource capacity. A quantitative approach was employed using census sampling, involving all 38 administrative staff as respondents. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that both work discipline and information technology utilization have a positive and significant effect on public service effectiveness, both partially and simultaneously. Work discipline emerges as the dominant factor, reflecting the importance of punctuality, rule compliance, and responsibility in ensuring consistent service delivery. Meanwhile, the utilization of information technology contributes to improved efficiency, accuracy, and service speed, although its implementation remains constrained by technical and competency limitations. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.713 suggests that 71.3% of the variation in public service effectiveness is explained by the two independent variables, while the remaining 28.7% is influenced by other factors. These findings highlight the need for strengthening employee discipline and enhancing digital capabilities to optimize public service performance, particularly in geographically challenging regions.

Abstract

Domestic violence (Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga/KDRT) remains a significant socio-legal issue in Indonesia, particularly in rural communities where cultural norms influence conflict resolution. This study aims to analyze the patterns of domestic violence and examine the effectiveness of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms in Baruga Village, Pa’jukukang District, Bantaeng Regency. A qualitative approach with a socio-legal perspective was employed to explore the interaction between formal legal frameworks and informal community practices. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using an interactive model involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that domestic violence in the study area predominantly affects women and manifests in three main forms: physical, psychological, and sexual violence. Physical violence is the most commonly reported, while psychological violence often precedes physical abuse, indicating a pattern of escalation. Sexual violence is underreported due to cultural stigma. The study also finds that most cases are resolved through informal mechanisms, particularly deliberation (musyawarah) and consensus (mufakat), facilitated by village authorities. Although these mechanisms are culturally accepted, they tend to prioritize reconciliation over justice and may not adequately protect victims. This study concludes that while alternative dispute resolution provides accessible and culturally relevant solutions, its effectiveness is limited by gender inequality, low legal awareness, and power imbalances. Strengthening legal literacy and integrating formal and informal mechanisms are essential to improve victim protection and ensure sustainable resolution outcomes.

Abstract

Profitability is an important aspect for companies in improving performance and maintaining business continuity. This research aims to determine the effect of tax planning and company size on profitability in food and beverage sub-sector manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2023–2025 period. This research uses quantitative methods with an associative causality approach and uses secondary data in the form of company annual financial reports. The sampling technique uses a purposive sampling method to obtain a sample of companies that meet the research criteria. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression to determine the influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable partially or simultaneously. The results of the research show that tax planning and company size have different relationship directions on profitability, but partially both do not have a significant effect on company profitability. The research results also show that the ability of the two variables to explain profitability is still relatively low so that there are other factors outside the research model that more dominantly influence company profitability.

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems play a vital role in maintaining coastal environmental balance, protecting shorelines from erosion, sequestering carbon, and supporting local economic activities. However, the mangrove area in Tongke-Tongke Village, Sinjai Regency, faces ongoing issues with pollution specifically plastic and household waste that threaten the sustainability of its ecological functions and tourism potential. Consequently, a Community Partnership Program (PKM) titled "Eco-Theological Community-Based Waste Management for Sustainable Mangrove Ecosystem Conservation in Sinjai Regency" was implemented to establish a community-based waste management model integrated with Islamic eco-theological values. The program employed Participatory Community Development, Community-Based Waste Management (CBWM), and eco-theological approaches, progressing through stages of problem identification, environmental education, internalization of Islamic eco-theological values, implementation of conservation actions, and activity evaluation. Target participants included coastal residents, the Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis), religious leaders, youth, women, and mangrove tourism managers. Results indicated an increase in community knowledge and awareness regarding waste management and mangrove conservation. Internalizing values ​​such as khalīfah fī al-arḍ (stewardship of the earth), amānah (trust/responsibility), mīzān (balance), and maṣlaḥah (public interest) strengthened the community's moral and spiritual commitment to environmental stewardship. The program also successfully boosted community participation in mangrove cleanup drives and waste sorting, and established a "Mangrove-Caring Community Group" as a local institution to ensure the program's long-term sustainability. Overall, the approach integrating community-based waste management with Islamic eco-theology proved effective in supporting sustainable mangrove conservation in Tongke-Tongke Village.

Abstract

Ecotourism is a sector that contributes significantly to improving community welfare and regional development. However, the expansion of tourism activities without sustainable management often leads to various issues, such as environmental degradation, conflicts over natural resource use, pollution, and disputes among the community, tourism operators, and the government. These conditions highlight the need to enhance public understanding of the legal aspects of ecotourism management and the mechanisms for effective and equitable dispute resolution. This community service initiative aims to raise public legal awareness regarding the importance of environmental law enforcement in tourism activities and to provide insight into alternative dispute resolution methods applicable when conflicts arise. The program is implemented through legal outreach, interactive discussions, and direct assistance to the community and tourism operators. The material covers principles of sustainable ecotourism management, common legal violations, law enforcement mechanisms, and dispute resolution via both litigation and non-litigation channels. The expected outcome is an increase in public knowledge and legal awareness regarding the preservation of the tourism environment and the rights and obligations of all parties, as well as the ability to resolve conflicts peacefully through deliberation, mediation, and applicable legal mechanisms. Furthermore, this initiative seeks to strengthen collaboration among the community, the government, and tourism operators to establish ecotourism governance that is sustainable and equitable, delivering economic benefits without compromising environmental protection.

Abstract

Employee performance is a crucial factor in achieving organizational goals; therefore, understanding the factors that influence it is essential. This study aims to analyze the impact of rewards, incentives, and internal communication on employee performance, with job satisfaction serving as a mediating variable, within the Order-to-Cash Department of PT OCS Global Services. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a census method covering 55 employees. Data were collected via Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that rewards, incentives, and internal communication have a positive and significant impact on job satisfaction. Regarding direct effects, incentives and job satisfaction significantly influence employee performance, whereas rewards and internal communication do not. Furthermore, job satisfaction significantly mediates the impact of rewards and incentives on performance but does not mediate the impact of internal communication. These findings suggest that enhancing employee performance requires effective incentive management and the improvement of job satisfaction as a key organizational factor. This study offers novel contributions in several respects. First, it integrates financial factors (rewards and incentives) and non-financial factors (internal communication) into a single research model incorporating job satisfaction as a mediating variable—an approach relatively limited in prior research. Second, the study focuses on the specific context of the Order-to-Cash (O2C) Department, characterized by administrative, process-driven work focused on financial transaction accuracy, thereby providing a fresh perspective on employee performance studies within the facility services sector. Third, the study sheds light on inconsistencies in previous research findings by demonstrating that not all organizational factors directly influence performance; rather, some operate through the psychological mechanism of job satisfaction. Consequently, this study contributes to enriching organizational behavior models by making them more contextual and comprehensive.

Abstract

The implementation of the General Principles of Good Governance (Asas-Asas Umum Pemerintahan yang Baik—AUPB) constitutes a fundamental element of Indonesia's administrative law framework, ensuring that governmental authority is exercised lawfully, transparently, accountably, and in the public interest. This study examines the implementation of AUPB in regional governance and identifies the principal challenges affecting its effective application following the enactment of Law Number 30 of 2014 concerning Government Administration. The research adopts a normative legal research design employing statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Secondary legal materials, including legislation, judicial decisions, scholarly books, and peer-reviewed journal articles, were systematically analyzed using qualitative descriptive and legal interpretation methods. The findings demonstrate that AUPB has strengthened the legal and ethical foundation of regional administrative decision-making by promoting legal certainty, impartiality, transparency, proportionality, accountability, and quality public services. Nevertheless, its implementation remains constrained by limited bureaucratic integrity, inconsistent institutional supervision, inadequate understanding of AUPB among public officials, political intervention in administrative processes, and the persistence of abuse of authority. These challenges hinder the realization of effective, citizen-oriented local governance. The study argues that optimizing AUPB implementation requires integrated institutional reforms, including strengthening internal and external oversight mechanisms, enhancing the professionalism and legal competence of civil servants, expanding electronic government systems, and enforcing administrative law consistently. These measures are essential to institutionalize good governance principles, improve public trust, and ensure sustainable, accountable, and responsive regional government administration in Indonesia.
