Abstract

Indonesia’s downstream mining policy has emerged as a strategic instrument to increase domestic value-added, promote industrialization, and strengthen national economic resilience. However, the implementation of this policy raises important questions regarding economic efficiency and legal certainty for investors and business actors. This study examines the interaction between economic objectives and legal frameworks governing mineral downstreaming in Indonesia. Using a normative legal approach combined with economic analysis of law, the research evaluates whether existing regulations create efficient incentives while maintaining predictable legal environments. The findings indicate that downstream mining policies generate significant economic benefits through increased investment, employment opportunities, and export diversification. Nevertheless, regulatory inconsistencies, frequent policy changes, and overlapping institutional authorities have contributed to legal uncertainty, increasing transaction costs and reducing investor confidence. From an economic perspective, legal certainty functions as a critical prerequisite for efficient resource allocation and long-term industrial development. The study argues that the effectiveness of downstream mining policies depends not only on protectionist measures but also on coherent regulatory design, transparent governance, and stable enforcement mechanisms. Furthermore, balancing state control over natural resources with market efficiency remains essential for achieving sustainable economic outcomes. The research concludes that strengthening regulatory consistency and institutional coordination can enhance both economic efficiency and legal certainty, thereby supporting Indonesia’s broader industrial transformation agenda. These findings contribute to the growing literature on economic analysis of law by demonstrating how legal institutions influence economic performance in resource-based sectors.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of the digital economy has prompted governments worldwide to develop tax regulations that ensure fiscal sustainability while supporting business growth. In Indonesia, digital tax policies increasingly affect micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which constitute a major pillar of national economic development. This study analyzes the economic impact of digital tax regulation on Indonesian MSMEs through the perspective of economic analysis of law. Employing a normative-empirical approach, the research evaluates the effectiveness of digital tax policies in balancing revenue generation, regulatory compliance, and business competitiveness. The findings reveal that digital tax regulations contribute to increased tax transparency and broaden the tax base, thereby supporting government revenue objectives. However, compliance costs, limited digital literacy, and administrative complexities disproportionately affect smaller enterprises. These challenges may reduce operational efficiency and discourage participation in formal economic activities. The study further demonstrates that legal certainty and regulatory simplicity play crucial roles in minimizing compliance burdens and promoting voluntary tax compliance among MSMEs. Effective digital tax governance requires adaptive regulations that reflect the diverse capacities of business actors within the digital marketplace. The research argues that proportional regulatory frameworks, combined with technological support and tax education initiatives, can improve both economic efficiency and tax compliance. The study concludes that a balanced digital taxation system should simultaneously achieve fiscal objectives and facilitate sustainable MSME growth. These findings provide policy recommendations for developing an inclusive digital tax regime that enhances economic productivity while maintaining regulatory effectiveness in Indonesia’s evolving digital economy.

Abstract

Environmental regulations are designed to address negative externalities generated by industrial activities. This study evaluates environmental regulations in Indonesia through the lens of law and economics, emphasizing cost-benefit analysis as a tool for assessing regulatory effectiveness. The research investigates whether existing environmental laws create incentives for corporate compliance while maximizing social welfare. By applying economic theories of externalities, deterrence, and regulatory efficiency, the study examines the balance between environmental protection and economic development. The findings suggest that well-designed environmental regulations generate significant social benefits through pollution reduction, public health improvement, and environmental sustainability. Nevertheless, excessive compliance costs may reduce business competitiveness and discourage investment. The study argues that environmental policies should be structured to internalize external costs without imposing disproportionate burdens on economic actors. Market-based instruments, such as pollution taxes and emissions trading mechanisms, are identified as efficient alternatives to purely command-and-control regulations. Furthermore, legal certainty and effective enforcement are essential for ensuring compliance and minimizing transaction costs. The paper concludes that economic analysis provides valuable insights for designing environmental regulations that achieve both ecological and economic objectives. The findings offer practical implications for policymakers seeking to improve environmental governance while maintaining economic growth in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper analyzes the economic consequences of competition law enforcement on market efficiency in Indonesia. Competition law plays a critical role in preventing monopolistic practices, abuse of dominant positions, and anti-competitive agreements that may harm consumer welfare. Employing the law and economics approach, the study investigates whether enforcement actions undertaken by regulatory authorities contribute to efficient market outcomes. The research utilizes normative legal analysis supported by economic theories of market competition and welfare economics. The findings reveal that effective competition law enforcement enhances market efficiency by reducing barriers to entry, encouraging innovation, and lowering prices for consumers. However, excessive regulatory intervention may generate enforcement costs and uncertainty that negatively affect business activities and investment incentives. The study further explores the relationship between legal sanctions and deterrence effects, demonstrating that proportionate sanctions can reduce anti-competitive behavior while preserving economic productivity. From an economic analysis of law perspective, the effectiveness of competition law should be measured not only by legal compliance but also by its impact on social welfare and resource allocation. The paper recommends improving institutional capacity, enhancing transparency in enforcement procedures, and adopting economic evidence in competition law assessments. These measures can strengthen the role of competition law in promoting sustainable economic growth and fair market competition in Indonesia.

Abstract

Asset recovery has become a central strategy in combating corruption by targeting the economic benefits obtained through criminal activities. This study analyzes the economic efficiency of asset recovery mechanisms in corruption cases in Indonesia using the framework of Economic Analysis of Law. The research examines whether the confiscation, forfeiture, and recovery of illicit assets provide greater social benefits than reliance on imprisonment as the primary criminal sanction. A normative legal methodology is employed to evaluate relevant legislation, legal principles, and enforcement practices, while economic analysis is used to assess efficiency, deterrence, and welfare outcomes. The findings demonstrate that asset recovery contributes significantly to deterrence by eliminating the financial incentives associated with corruption. Unlike imprisonment, which primarily imposes personal restrictions on offenders, asset recovery directly restores economic resources to the state and reduces the profitability of criminal conduct. However, practical challenges such as asset concealment, cross-border financial transactions, and procedural complexities continue to hinder effective implementation. The study argues that strengthening asset tracing, enhancing inter-agency cooperation, and expanding international legal assistance are essential to maximizing recovery outcomes. Ultimately, the research concludes that asset recovery represents a more economically efficient instrument for addressing corruption because it simultaneously punishes offenders, compensates public losses, and improves social welfare. Integrating economic efficiency into anti-corruption strategies can enhance the effectiveness of criminal law enforcement and support sustainable governance reforms.
