Abstract

This study aims to analyze the contribution of legal and ethical perspectives in building a fair and transparent tax system, particularly in encouraging voluntary taxpayer compliance in Indonesia. This study uses a normative juridical method with a statutory and conceptual approach, to examine how legal rules and moral principles play a role in ensuring the protection of taxpayers' rights during the audit and law enforcement process. The results of the study indicate that the Indonesian tax law system normatively regulates taxpayers' rights and obligations through regulations such as the KUP Law, the Income Tax Law, and the Value Added Tax Law. However, its effectiveness is greatly influenced by the ethics of those implementing it in the field. It was found that the integrity of the apparatus, procedural fairness, and transparency of tax services significantly determine the success of creating a culture of compliance that grows from awareness, not merely fear of sanctions. Therefore, the synergy between legal firmness and the application of ethical values is a key element in national tax system reform.

Abstract

Tax disputes, particularly those related to Income Tax (PPh), are a frequent issue in the relationship between taxpayers and tax authorities in Indonesia. In many cases, taxpayers feel disadvantaged by tax authorities' decisions that do not reflect the actual situation, thus giving rise to the need for adequate legal protection, particularly in the Tax Court process. This study aims to analyze the forms of legal protection for taxpayers in PPh disputes and to identify obstacles and opportunities within the tax justice system. The research method used is normative juridical with a statutory approach and case studies, supplemented by an analysis of Tax Court decisions. The results indicate that legal protection for taxpayers is normatively available through objection, appeal, and lawsuit mechanisms. However, in practice, various obstacles remain, such as limited access to legal aid, the tax authority's dominance in the burden of evidence, and the unequal position between taxpayers and tax authorities. In addition, some court decisions still do not fully reflect substantive justice for taxpayers. Therefore, a reform of the tax dispute system is needed to be more inclusive, transparent, and ensure equality between the parties. This research is expected to contribute to the development of a fair tax legal protection system in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines legal protection for policyholders in motor vehicle insurance using a literature review approach. Legal protection is a crucial aspect of the relationship between insurance companies and policyholders, particularly in guaranteeing the rights that policyholders should receive as stipulated in the insurance policy. This study highlights the role of law in protecting against potential injustice arising from claim rejections or discrepancies between promised services and actual performance. This study also explores the basic principles of insurance contracts, the obligations of insurance companies, and the rights of policyholders. Furthermore, it discusses the forms of dispute resolution available when disputes arise between policyholders and insurance companies, both through litigation and non-litigation mechanisms. The results of this literature review indicate that legal protection for policyholders is highly dependent on the clarity of the insurance contract, the understanding of the law by both parties, and the effectiveness of dispute resolution institutions in upholding justice. Therefore, it is necessary to improve legal education for policyholders and strengthen regulations in insurance practices to create a fair, transparent, and balanced relationship between insurance companies and policyholders.

Abstract

Tax law, a collection of regulations governing the relationship between the government as tax collector and the people as taxpayers, defines taxes as mandatory contributions to the state owed by individuals or entities that are coercive under the law, without receiving any direct compensation and are used for state purposes for the greatest prosperity of the people. Tax compliance is a major issue that requires greater attention in the era of private system evaluation. Several key factors affecting tax collection are taxpayer trust in tax institutions, complex regulations, low public awareness of taxes, and tax administration. It is hoped that improvements in organizations, human resources (HR), information technology, business processes, and tax laws and regulations will help overcome tax administration problems and increase taxpayer compliance.

Abstract

Adoption is a legal act that transfers the custody of a child from biological parents or legal guardians to adoptive parents. In Indonesia, adoption is regulated by laws and regulations that provide a clear legal basis for the procedures, requirements, and legal implications of adoption. This study aims to examine the concept of adoption in Indonesian positive law, its adoption procedures, and the legal implications for the rights and obligations of adopted children. The method used in this study is a descriptive-analytical normative research method, by analyzing various related laws and regulations, such as Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection, Government Regulation Number 54 of 2007 concerning the Implementation of Adoption, and other related regulations. Based on this analysis, it was found that the adoption process in Indonesia involves strict administrative and social stages, which ensure the protection and welfare of children. In addition, adoption provides equal rights to biological children in terms of care, education, and protection, although the child's lineage and inheritance rights remain affected by applicable law. The legal implications of adoption in Indonesia emphasize the obligations of adoptive parents to provide good care and fulfill the rights of adopted children in accordance with existing legal provisions.

Abstract

This study examines the synergy between law and education in providing protection for contract workers in Indonesia. Contract workers are one group of workers who often face problems related to legal status, job insecurity, and limitations in obtaining normative rights as stipulated in labor regulations. Although Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and its derivative regulations have provided a legal framework, implementation in the field often shows gaps that weaken the position of contract workers. Therefore, an interdisciplinary approach is needed that integrates legal and educational dimensions to provide more comprehensive protection. The research method used is normative legal research with a qualitative approach, through a review of labor laws, doctrines, and practices, and enriched with educational studies that emphasize the importance of legal literacy for workers. The results of the study indicate that legal protection for contract workers is not fully effective due to weak supervision, workers' low understanding of their rights, and the ongoing practice of contract abuse by employers. In this context, education plays a crucial role in increasing legal awareness among contract workers, through formal and informal education, as well as skills-based training in legal and employment law. The conclusion of this study confirms that the synergy between law and education is a relevant strategy for strengthening the protection of contract workers. The law provides a binding normative framework, while education fosters workers' awareness and empowerment in demanding their rights. Therefore, the combination of the two is expected to achieve social justice and improve the welfare of contract workers in Indonesia.
