Abstract

This study analyzes legal protection for weaker parties in standard form contracts based on the principle of balance in Indonesian civil law. The main issue arises because standard contracts are drafted unilaterally by business actors, so the resulting consent is merely formal and does not reflect equal bargaining positions. This research aims to examine the legal status of standard contracts, identify forms of imbalance in contractual clauses, and formulate dispute resolution mechanisms based on the principle of balance. The method used is normative legal research employing statutory, conceptual, and case approaches through library research of legislation, doctrine, and judicial practice. The results show that standard contracts remain valid agreements, but their binding force is not absolute because they are subject to the principles of good faith and propriety. Imbalance appears through exoneration clauses, unilateral modification, limitation of legal remedies, transfer of liability, and non-transparent drafting. Dispute resolution is not carried out through total annulment but through corrective interpretation, exclusion of unfair clauses, and adjustment of the parties’ obligations. This study confirms that the principle of balance functions as a corrective to freedom of contract so that contracts not only ensure legal certainty but also deliver substantive justice to weaker parties in modern contractual relationships.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the expansion of the meaning of unlawful acts in corruption cases from a civil law perspective as an alternative instrument for recovering state losses. The main issue addressed is the limitation of criminal law approaches, which have not been able to optimally restore state losses resulting from corruption. This research employs a normative legal method with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, supported by primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The findings indicate that the concept of unlawful acts can be expanded beyond violations of written legal norms to include breaches of public interest, propriety principles, and good governance. In this context, the state has legal standing as a subject of law to file civil lawsuits based on Article 1365 of the Civil Code against perpetrators of corruption and related parties. The novelty of this research lies in the integration model between criminal and civil law through civil litigation mechanisms, including the application of reversed burden of proof and the strengthening of asset recovery mechanisms. This approach is expected to create a more effective, comprehensive, and just anti-corruption system, particularly in recovering state losses.

Abstract

Protection of property rights is one of the fundamental elements of civil law because it is directly related to legal certainty, social stability, and the guarantee of human rights. In Malaysia, the protection of property rights has distinctive characteristics due to the influence of a plural legal system that combines common law, Islamic law, and customary law. This condition creates its own dynamics, particularly in the regulation of land, inheritance, contracts, and the resolution of property rights disputes. This study aims to analyze the forms of property rights protection in Malaysian civil law, identify the normative foundations governing them, and assess the effectiveness of legal protection for vulnerable groups in ownership disputes. This research employs normative legal research methods using statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The data used are secondary data obtained through library research, including primary legal materials such as the Federal Constitution, National Land Code 1965, Contracts Act 1950, and Specific Relief Act 1950, as well as secondary legal materials in the form of books, scientific journals, and relevant court decisions. The results of the study show that Article 13 of the Federal Constitution provides constitutional guarantees for property rights through the prohibition of arbitrary deprivation and the obligation to provide adequate compensation. The National Land Code 1965 strengthens this protection through the Torrens-based land registration system. However, the effectiveness of such protection still faces obstacles, including jurisdictional conflicts between civil courts and Syariah courts, weak recognition of indigenous peoples’ land rights, and limited legal access for women and economically disadvantaged groups. In conclusion, the protection of property rights in Malaysia should not rely solely on formal legal certainty but must also be directed toward inclusive substantive justice. Therefore, harmonization of the legal system and the strengthening of affirmative policies are necessary to ensure fairer protection for all levels of society.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the people of Bolaang Mongondow, particularly in Otam Village, Bilalang Village, and Pangian Village, who continue to preserve the Golomang Tradition (Kolintang), as well as its conformity with Islamic law. This study aims to examine the procedures for carrying out the Golomang Tradition in mourning processions and to analyze it from the perspective of Islamic law. This research employs a qualitative method with sociological and normative approaches. The data sources were obtained from religious leaders, traditional leaders, and community members through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study show that the Golomang Tradition is performed at several stages of mourning, namely after the arukus has been erected, after the body has been washed, before the remarks from village officials, when the body is about to be taken to its final resting place, and on the third, seventh, and fourteenth nights after the recitation of prayers. This tradition is understood by the community as a form of final respect and as a means of strengthening social solidarity. From the perspective of Islamic law, this practice does not contradict Islamic teachings as long as it does not contain elements of deviant belief and remains within the boundaries of permissible custom (‘Urf Shahih). Therefore, the Golomang Tradition can be positioned as a cultural custom that exists alongside the implementation of Islamic law in funeral rites.
