Abstract

The protection of victims of terrorism is an integral part of a just criminal law system. The state has the obligation not only to punish the perpetrators, but also to restore the condition of the victims through effective legal means. However, regulations governing victims’ rights in Indonesia’s criminal justice system, despite normative strengthening through Law Number 5 of 2018 and Government Regulation in Lieu of Law (Perppu) Number 1 of 2002, have not yet shown full compliance with victim-oriented principles. Research that examines the rights of victims of terrorism by analyzing the victim-oriented framework is still limited. This research aims to evaluate Indonesia’s criminal law policy in order to further improve the protection of victims of terrorism by using a victim-oriented approach. The method used is normative juridical by searching legal documents and relevant international references, including documents and policies that develop the principles of victim protection in the criminal justice system. The results showed that although there is recognition of victims’ rights, such as compensation, restitution, medical assistance, psychosocial and psychological rehabilitation, there are still other victims’ rights that must be fulfilled, such as protection for victims of vulnerable groups and the involvement of victims in the criminal justice system. The implication of this finding is the need for policy reformulation that makes victim orientation to make victims subjects who must be healed and engaged.

Abstract

The recurrence of terrorism cases in Indonesia remains frequent and continues to pose a threat despite the government’s efforts to promote deradicalization programs in recent years. The implementation of these programs has yet to achieve optimal outcomes, as many former terrorism inmates rejoin their networks and engage in further acts of terrorism after release. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of deradicalization programs for former terrorism inmates in Indonesia and to formulate an ideal policy framework. Employing a qualitative approach with a socio-legal method, the findings reveal that deradicalization programs have not been effective. Contributing factors include fragmented and sectoral implementation, insufficient competence and quantity of correctional officers, prison overcrowding, the uniform treatment of terrorism inmates with general prisoners, and persistent social stigma. An ideal deradicalization policy should be implemented through systematic stages Identification, Rehabilitation, Re-education, and Resocialization by fostering synergy between government and non-government institutions using a humanistic approach. In conclusion, deradicalization programs in Indonesia remain ineffective and require comprehensive policy reformulation.

Abstract

This study discusses the dynamics of conflict related to the Siabu Air Weapon Range (AWR) in Kampar Regency, Riau Province, involving the Indonesian Air Force's Roesmin Nurjadin Air Base and the communities surrounding the area. The conflict arose due to the use of the AWR land as an Indonesian Air Force shooting range, which borders directly on palm oil plantations owned by the community, thus posing a potential threat to national security. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role and strategies of the Kampar Regency Government in resolving the dispute over the use of the Siabu AWR land as part of efforts to support national security. The research used a qualitative approach through interviews, field observations, and document reviews. The findings show that stronger involvement from the local government is needed through the formulation of regional regulations governing the Siabu AWR training area, strengthening interagency coordination through an Interagency Working Group, and establishing vertical institutions in the region to support defense outreach activities. This study recommends the implementation of an Interagency Working Group-based National Security Strategy to produce more proportional and effective policy synergies between institutions, utilizing a customary-based approach to strengthen national security in a sustainable manner.
Jemaah Islamiyah's Proliferation Strategy:Understanding Strategic Transformation and Counterterrorism Enforcement byDensus 88 Anti-Terror in Indonesia: Strategi Perluasan Jemaah Islamiyah: Memahami Transformasi Strategis dan Penegakan Hukum Kontra-Terorisme oleh Densus 88 Anti-Teror di Indonesia Wachid Ridwan; Raihan Faliq; Muhammad Daffa Aulia Ridwan

Abstract

Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) is suspected of employing a novel proliferation strategy, namely nonviolent struggle. This impression emerged after Para Wijayanto (Amir JI) was apprehended by Special Detachment 88 Anti-Terror Police officers in Bekasi. Following the arrest of Abu Bakar Ba'asyir by law enforcement officers, Para Wijayanto became JI’s most influential figure. He returned to Indonesia after finishing military terrorism training in Moro,, the Philippines. According to police investigation data, he is a Moro military training alumnus, which means he is involved in the JI terrorism organization's structure. In the hands of Wijayanto, JI evolved into what the Institute for Policy Analysis of Conflict (IPAC) dubbed Neo-JI in its 2017 report. This type of struggle by terrorist organizations prefers to creep in quietly, without a violent agenda, and rely solely on social and da'wah. The shift in JI's struggle strategy under Para Wijayanto's leadership was demonstrated during the mobilization of mass demonstrations against DKI Jakarta's governor in 2012. The Deputy Head of Densus 88 explained the Defending Islam 212 demonstration in Jakarta, emphasizing that the incident should not be avoided and was motivated by a desire to commit acts of terrorism after police detected signs of such a movement. The police are aware that the radical group is anti-demonstration; they only move for action. So, the police specifically observed the movements of this group, and some of their members even fled from areas outside Jakarta. This study will examine the factors and timing of JI's transition to a nonviolent struggle strategy, similar to the preaching of Islamic mass organizations. Between 2019 and early 2024, law enforcement officers conducted extensive soft power operations to combat the rise of JI's preaching movement.

Abstract

This study compares the reactions of the Front Islamique du Salut (FIS) in Algeria and the Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) in Egypt following military coups, despite similar levels of regime repression. Drawing on the inclusion-moderation theory and employing Mill’s Method of Difference, this research argues that the duration of political inclusion significantly shapes Islamist movements’ behavioral responses. The findings indicate that prolonged exposure to political participation fosters moderation and reduces the likelihood of violent escalation, while limited inclusion increases the propensity for radicalization. The study contributes to debates on political Islam and democracy by demonstrating that Islamist movements are not inherently violent but are shaped by institutional experiences.

Abstract

This article critically examines the structural incapacity of Indonesian law to anticipate and regulate the transformation of natural resource exploitation into vectors of national security risk. Operating within the normative-doctrinal tradition, the study adopts statute, conceptual, and case-based legal approaches to interrogate the triadic relationship between corporate actors, ecological destruction, and political violence. The central argument advanced is that Indonesian law sustains a paradox: it simultaneously authorises resource extraction as a developmental imperative while failing to acknowledge that extractivism generates structural grievances which may radicalise affected communities, thereby constituting a pre-terrorism environment. Green criminology serves as the analytical framework, augmented by ecological justice theory, Rawlsian distributive philosophy, and Critical Legal Studies. Doctrinal analysis reveals that the Mineral and Coal Mining Law (UU Minerba), the Environmental Protection and Management Law (UUPPLH), and the Anti-Terrorism Law (UU Terorisme) operate in regulatory silos, producing normative gaps through which corporations escape accountability for harms that transcend environmental categories and enter the domain of human-ecological security threats. Case analysis of PT. Kallista Alam, PT. Adei Plantation, and related litigation demonstrates that courts have yet to articulate a jurisprudential framework linking corporate environmental crime to security consequences. This article concludes by proposing a 'Green Security Law Framework' an integrated normative architecture reconciling environmental, security, and counterterrorism law as the prescriptive response to a legal deficit that renders the Indonesian state structurally complicit in its own security vulnerabilities.
