Abstract

The rapid growth of the halal culinary sector in the ASEAN region presents significant opportunities to enhance competitiveness through the integration of creative economy principles. Despite strong potential driven by Muslim tourism, technological advancement, and increasing awareness of halal certification, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) continue to face major challenges, including limited product innovation, inadequate use of digital marketing, weak branding, and constrained access to financing. This study adopts a descriptive–analytical qualitative approach, utilizing secondary data from reputable academic journals, official ASEAN policy documents, and relevant studies published over the last decade. The findings reveal that the creative economy contributes to strengthening trust and stability within the halal supply chain through the adoption of advanced technologies such as blockchain, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI). Moreover, product innovation, environmentally friendly packaging, supply chain digitalization, and culinary diplomacy among ASEAN countries further enhance the resilience of the halal culinary ecosystem. Digital branding and storytelling strategies are also shown to improve transparency and consumer trust. Nevertheless, challenges remain in the form of unequal technology adoption, variations in halal certification standards, and limited financial access for SMEs. This study concludes that the creative economy not only reinforces the competitiveness of the halal culinary industry but also positions ASEAN as a potential global hub for halal business.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the integration model of the creative economy and the halal industry in driving local economic growth in Pekalongan. The main focus is to identify how the subsectors of batik, halal culinary, Muslim fashion, and halal tourism can collaborate under halal principles to enhance the competitiveness of MSMEs. Using a qualitative descriptive approach with a literature study method, the research utilizes secondary data from official BPS reports, government policy documents, academic articles, and previous studies related to the creative economy and halal industry. Data were analyzed through content analysis involving data reduction, categorization, and descriptive narration, supported by source triangulation to ensure validity between academic literature, policy, and real MSME conditions. The findings reveal that the integration of the creative economy and the halal industry positively impacts MSME competitiveness. Batik serves as a cultural identity and globally competitive product through eco-friendly innovation, halal-certified culinary expands domestic and international markets, Muslim fashion promotes modest fashion trends, and halal tourism generates a multiplier effect on local trade. However, challenges remain in limited capital, low halal certification literacy, and suboptimal digital adoption. This study recommends strengthening regional government facilitation, accelerating halal certification, and providing Islamic financial support for MSMEs. Collaboration among academia, entrepreneurs, and policymakers is crucial to strengthening Pekalongan’s branding as a halal creative city. The study contributes to the literature on creative economy–halal industry integration by offering an applicable model for inclusive and sustainable local economic development.

Abstract

This article explores the constitutional role of Islamic law (Sharia) within contemporary governance frameworks across four Muslim-majority states such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Egypt. It argues that the interface between Sharia and constitutionalism represents an evolving negotiation of moral legitimacy, institutional design, and political power rather than a fixed dichotomy between secularism and theocracy. Using a comparative qualitative approach grounded in constitutional pluralism and governance legitimacy theory, the study analyzes constitutions, judicial decisions, and legislative instruments from 1945 to 2024. The findings identify three typological models of Islamic constitutional governance. The integrationist model, exemplified by Pakistan, embeds Sharia into the constitutional core through specialized courts and councils, reinforcing religious authority but limiting legislative autonomy. The dualist model, found in Malaysia, institutionalizes parallel jurisdictions between civil and Sharia courts, ensuring religious autonomy but perpetuating jurisdictional uncertainty. The contextual-adaptive model, as in Indonesia, integrates Sharia through decentralization and judicial review, balancing local autonomy and national oversight. Egypt, meanwhile, represents a hybrid statist model, where state institutions monopolize religious interpretation to maintain regime legitimacy. Comparative analysis reveals that constitutional trajectories depend less on religious doctrine than on the interplay of judicial independence, political coalitions, and decentralization. When Sharia interpretation aligns with maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah and human rights principles, it strengthens democratic legitimacy and legal pluralism. The article concludes by proposing a contextual constitutionalism model, offering an institutional framework for reconciling divine authority with constitutional democracy in Muslim-majority societies.

Digital Muamalah and Economic Fairness: A Socio-Legal Analysis of FinTech Regulation in Muslim Countries Asep Koswara

Abstract

This socio-legal study addresses the central problem of economic fairness in digital mu’āmalah, investigating the tension between technological innovation, Sharia compliance, and consumer protection within FinTech regulation in Muslim countries. Employing a qualitative socio-legal methodology that contrasts doctrinal analysis of regulatory texts (OJK, BNM, DSN-MUI rulings) with assumed empirical data (stakeholder perceptions, public reports on consumer complaints), the research critically assesses the efficacy of current regulatory frameworks. The primary scientific finding reveals a "Compliance-Fairness Paradox," demonstrating that while regulations are successful in ensuring structural compliance (e.g., technical avoidance of ribā and gharar), they fail to guarantee substantive economic fairness (Maqāṣid al-Sharī‘ah). This failure manifests as the Socio-Legal Gap, where legally permissible practices, such as high cumulative fees and algorithmic bias, lead to consumer exploitation and debt traps, fundamentally undermining the Maqāṣid objective of Hifẓ al-Māl (protection of wealth). This study concludes that achieving justice in digital finance requires regulatory policy to shift from a rigid formalistic focus on contractual structure to an adaptive, outcomes-based approach that monitors the social consequences and equitability of FinTech practices.

Abstract

The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in the legal sector has driven a significant transformation in Indonesia’s legal ecosystem. This study addresses three research questions: (1) How has AI been adopted within Indonesia’s legal sector, and what forms does this adoption take? (2) What potential does AI hold for strengthening legal research, the legal profession, and judicial administration? (3) What regulatory framework is urgently required to govern AI use in Indonesia’s legal context, and how does it compare with existing international models? Employing a normative legal research methodology with conceptual and statutory approaches, this study conducts a prescriptive analysis of primary legal materials (statutes and regulations), secondary sources (academic literature and case studies), and comparative regulatory models, including the European Union’s AI Act. The findings reveal that AI adoption in Indonesia’s legal sector has progressed through private-sector platforms: Legal Hero, Legal Pro, and Allex, and through judicial innovation via the Supreme Court’s Smart Majelis system. While these developments demonstrate measurable efficiency gains, critical regulatory issues persist: no Indonesian statute directly governs AI’s specific characteristics, creating risks of algorithmic bias, erosion of judicial independence, opacity in decision-making, and data privacy violations. This study argues that Indonesia must adopt a risk-tiered, comprehensive AI regulatory framework, drawing on lessons from the EU AI Act while adapting to Indonesia’s socio-legal context, to ensure that AI strengthens rather than undermines the integrity of the national legal system.

Abstract

Children in Custody Disputes: Matching Legal Proceedings to Problems by Kaldal, Hellner, & Mattsson (2024) offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary examination of how legal systems respond to conflicts over child custody, residence, and contact following parental separation. Bringing together scholars from law, social sciences, psychology, and procedural studies, the book addresses the growing recognition that custody disputes are not merely legal disagreements but complex social and emotional conflicts with profound consequences for children’s wellbeing. The volume situates these disputes within contemporary legal frameworks influenced by children’s rights, particularly the principles of the best interests of the child and the child’s right to participation.
