Abstract

Law enforcement of election crimes is a critical aspect to ensure the creation of a fair, honest, and transparent democratic process. This research discusses the role of the Integrated Law Enforcement Centre (Gakkumdu) under Bawaslu East Jakarta in handling and resolving cases related to election crimes. Gakkumdu Bawaslu East Jakarta is mandated to address various violations, including administrative breaches, code of ethics violations, and criminal acts within the electoral process. This study aims to identify how Gakkumdu East Jakarta carries out its preventive and enforcement functions, as well as to analyse the challenges encountered in implementing these tasks. The research adopts a qualitative method with a literature and legal approach, utilising secondary data sources such as official documents, reports, regulations, and interviews with related stakeholders. The findings reveal that Gakkumdu East Jakarta plays a pivotal role in maintaining electoral integrity by actively monitoring, investigating, and processing election violations. However, several obstacles persist, notably limited human and financial resources, the complexity of legal procedures, and challenges in inter-institutional coordination between Bawaslu, the police, and the prosecutor’s office. This research emphasizes the need for improved institutional synergy, capacity building, and clearer regulatory frameworks to enhance the effectiveness of Gakkumdu’s performance in future elections. Strengthening these aspects is vital to upholding democratic values and ensuring that elections run according to the principles of fairness and justice.

Abstract

Digital rights refer to the freedoms and protections individuals, including children, are entitled to in the digital environment. In an era of rapid digitalisation, ensuring these rights, especially within early childhood education, has become increasingly significant. Children are active participants in the digital world, and their rights to safely access, use, and interact with digital content must be viewed from educational and legal perspectives. Core concerns include safeguarding children’s presence in digital spaces, protecting their data, and ensuring equitable access to appropriate digital resources. In this regard, Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems play a vital role in regulating access and ensuring content protection, while emerging technologies such as blockchain enhance transparency and security in copyright enforcement. Access to digital content is central to children's learning and development, making it a public responsibility to protect these rights through sound policy and regulation. At the same time, digital engagement brings potential risks, such as digital addiction, which can adversely impact children’s cognitive, emotional, and social development. Research indicates that familial, environmental, and educational factors often influence this addiction. Thus, parents and educators play a critical role in creating a safe and balanced digital experience for children. Their awareness, supervision, and attitude towards digital tools shape how children navigate online platforms. Therefore, stakeholders—governments, educators, and families alike—must collaborate in creating frameworks that uphold children's digital rights and promote responsible digital citizenship from an early age.

Abstract

The article focuses on the execution of imprisonment in the Czech Republic, its objectives and responsibilities in the context of promoting the reintegration of convicted persons into society. The main mission of the prison system is not only to ensure the safety of society and protection from offenders, but also to provide systematic social support and penitentiary care. Specially trained staff help convicts to understand their behaviour, the reasons for breaking the law and to acquire new moral standards, skills and knowledge. This approach emphasises the transformation of convicts, with the aim of reducing the risk of reoffending and facilitating their return to society as active, independent and contributing members. The practical and social-adaptive skills developed during their sentence are crucial for their successful re-socialisation and minimising the risks associated with re-offending. The study offers insight into the principles and practices of the Czech penitentiary system, with an emphasis on its rehabilitative and preventive functions. The current Russo-Ukrainian war has caused an influx of Ukrainian refugees, including those who may have committed crimes in the Czech Republic. This situation places increased demands on the prison system, which must respond not only to the general needs of convicts, but also to the specific challenges arising from their cultural, legal and social context.

Abstract

Cybercrime is a global problem. There is no universal definition for cybercrime. Cybercrime is an ever-evolving phenomenon that challenges computer experts, states, law enforcement, and even researchers. Vietnam is one of the countries with the highest internet penetration worldwide. It is estimated that more than 80,000,000 people (80% of the population) are internet users and are at risk of cybercrime. Vietnam passed the Cybersecurity law in 2018.  Also, Vietnam’s Criminal Code 2015 (amended 2017 addresses cybercrime. The article used a library-based secondary data analysis to compare cybercrime and cybercrime laws in Vietnam, Singapore, and the U.S. The article has established that cybercrime is widespread globally, and Vietnam is no exception. The article has also noted that Vietnam’s Cybersecurity Law 2018 should be amended to create a more balanced law that does not put most of its emphasis on the state. Also, Vietnam could learn from other countries like the U.S. about sharing information among cybercrime investigating agencies.

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the impact of Corporate Governance on Earnings Manipulation, with Cyber Laws, Forensic Accounting Practices, and Emerging Technologies serving as moderating factors. This study, utilizing data from 400 high-tech industry professionals in China, validates the overall research hypothesis through PLS-SEM, demonstrating that strict governance procedures effectively mitigate earnings manipulation. Cyber laws and emerging technologies enhance financial regulation by augmenting oversight and reducing the potential for manipulation, while forensic accounting provides supplementary techniques for fraud detection and compliance. The study advocates for the integration of regulatory and compliance mechanisms, technology, and forensic processes into organizational compliance systems to improve accountability and transparency in financial reporting. Thus, the policy options may include strengthening cybersecurity regulations, advancing technological capabilities, and incorporating forensic accounting into the organizational management framework.

Abstract

The subject of the study is optimal models of legal regulation of transregional cooperation, which is an essential task from the point of view of new ways of realising national interests in international relations. The article aims to establish the peculiarities of the legal regulation of transregional cooperation, taking into account the experience of the EU. The study results showed that legal instruments can be bilateral or multilateral and define each party’s obligations and rights within the cooperation framework. The differences in the legal systems of the participating countries may make the application and enforcement of agreements difficult. The aspiration to intensify integration and interaction between countries and regions is substantiated. Practical transregional cooperation can promote trade and economic growth, strengthen democratic institutions, protect human rights, and address shared challenges such as climate change and migration. The ability to fund projects to support civil society, human rights, and the rule of law, as well as strengthen democratic institutions in neighbouring countries, contributes to stability and development at the regional level. In addition, practical cross-border cooperation between the EU and its neighbouring countries requires a comprehensive approach. The role of EU cooperation with African countries must be adapted to each region’s specific needs and characteristics. The standards of most successful models of transregional cooperation should be recognised as the models of cross-border cooperation of states located on the eastern and southern borders of the single European space.

Abstract

Human rights in constitutional acts are essential to building the legal framework of Europe and Ukraine. The topic is considered relevant since it is necessary to analyse the influence of historical, political and social processes on creating contemporary legal norms to protect human rights. Therefore, the study aims to assess the evolution of human rights in Europe’s and Ukraine’s constitutional law from the eighteenth to the twentieth century. Constitutional acts and international legal documents are analysed with the help of historical and comparative legal approaches. Knowledge of the historical experience of constitutional acts of European countries and Ukraine in the second half of the eighteenth to the twentieth century is necessary to create basic legal systems and protect human rights. Thus, the study employs historical-overlocal and comparative methods to explain Ukrainians’ responses to the European impact on their legal system. Issues of social and minority rights were gradually introduced into Ukrainian legislation, which proves the process of the country’s European integration due to the significant liberalisation of critical human rights values. The significance resides in recommendations on enhancing national legal tools to safeguard the rights of citizens effectively. The study’s practical significance lies in identifying critical stages in developing human rights and recommendations for improving national legal mechanisms to protect social and minority rights. The findings can be used to further improve national legal systems in the context of European integration.

Abstract

The development of toll road infrastructure in Indonesia represents one of the national government's strategic priorities to accelerate economic growth, improve connectivity, and enhance regional mobility. Nevertheless, the success of toll road investment projects cannot be measured solely from government policies or investor commitments, but also relies heavily on the involvement and active participation of the community as key stakeholders. Community participation plays a vital role in ensuring the transparency, accountability, legitimacy, and sustainability of toll road projects, particularly considering their significant social, economic, and environmental impacts. This study aims to examine the necessity of regulating community participation elements in the toll road investment process in Indonesia. The research employs a normative juridical method, combining a statutory and case approach, with a focus on legal provisions, policy frameworks, and practical experiences. The findings indicate that the current regulatory framework governing public participation remains fragmented, sectoral, and insufficient in guaranteeing inclusivity and fairness. Therefore, more precise, comprehensive, and enforceable regulations are urgently needed to strengthen public involvement mechanisms. These should include structured consultation forums, open and timely access to information, as well as adequate protection of rights and compensation for affected communities. By institutionalizing such participatory mechanisms, toll road investments can be developed within an inclusive legal framework that not only ensures justice for communities but also fosters investor confidence and project sustainability. Ultimately, embedding community participation in toll road investment regulations will contribute to the long-term success of infrastructure development and support Indonesia’s vision of equitable, sustainable, and participatory economic growth.

Abstract

This paper examines the use of force in self-defence under customary international law, focusing on the Israel-Palestine war. It analyses explicitly whether the attacks on 7 October 2023 by Harakat al-Muqawamah al-Islamiyyah (Hamas) and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) can be construed within the parameters of Article 51 of the United Nations Charter as an "armed attack" justifying Israel’s use of military force in self-defence against non-state actors. The study employs a qualitative research method with a literature-based and legal approach, relying on analysing international treaties, customary international law principles, and relevant case law. The right to use force in self-defence in international and criminal law is discussed in the context of countering an armed attack or an imminent threat, aligning with the concept of jus ad bellum, which regulates the conditions under which states may initiate conflict. Furthermore, the paper emphasises that all forms of self-defence must comply with the Caroline principles, namely necessity and proportionality. Through a critical review of legal doctrines and international responses, this research seeks to provide a nuanced understanding of how traditional self-defence rights are applied to contemporary conflicts involving non-state actors. The findings underscore the complexities and evolving interpretations of self-defence in modern international law.

Abstract

The article aims to disclose the administrative, legal, and socio-communicative status of refugees and seekers of international protection. It is demonstrated that refugees' administrative and legal status encompasses the rights and freedoms granted to them, which are classified into two groups. The first group consists of non-specific rights, or fundamental universally recognized rights and freedoms, enjoyed by all non-citizens within the territory of the country of asylum. These include rights realised through general procedures and rights with specific implementation aspects concerning refugees. The second group involves specific rights exclusive to refugees, such as the right to monetary assistance, the right to preferential access to citizenship, and the right to free legal aid during refugee status determination procedures. In addition, it is concluded that the administrative and legal status of refugees also includes specific duties regulated by Ukrainian legislation, such as the obligation to inform the central executive body responsible for refugee policy about travel outside their registered administrative-territorial unit. This study employs a qualitative research method with a literature and legal approach, analyzing primary and secondary legal materials relevant to refugee protection. Through this method, the article offers a comprehensive understanding of the legal frameworks that structure refugee rights and obligations, aiming to strengthen the protection mechanisms for individuals needing international protection.
