Abstract

The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought significant transformation across various sectors but also presents complex and urgent ethical challenges. Key issues include algorithmic bias that may reinforce social discrimination, privacy violations due to massive data collection without adequate control, and unclear accountability in autonomous AI systems. These challenges threaten social justice, individual rights, and public trust in technology. This study aims to develop an AI ethics framework grounded in Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa, the Islamic legal philosophy emphasizing the protection of five fundamental values: religion (ḥifẓ al-dīn), life (ḥifẓ al-nafs), intellect (ḥifẓ al-ʿaql), lineage (ḥifẓ al-nasl), and property (ḥifẓ al-māl). A qualitative literature review method employing content analysis and thematic synthesis was applied to examine relevant literature on AI ethics and Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa, identifying gaps and opportunities for normative integration. The findings demonstrate that Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa offers a holistic perspective complementing Western AI ethics frameworks by incorporating spiritual, moral, and social justice dimensions. The principle of ḥifẓ al-ʿaql underpins efforts to combat misinformation, while ḥifẓ al-māl guides the equitable development of Sharia-compliant fintech. This study recommends inclusive algorithm design, Sharia-based regulation, and multidisciplinary collaboration among religious scholars, technology developers, and regulators to ensure ethical, responsible, and sustainable AI development.

Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of interactions among stakeholders in shaping MSME actors' business orientation in Gili Trawangan regarding acceptance and rejection of halal certification on food and beverage products. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through participant observation over two months and in-depth interviews with 18 key informants, including MSME actors, government representatives, and tourists. The study explores how MSME actors' attitudes amid contestation between the government as an institutional stakeholder and tourists as primary stakeholders influence decisions to accept or reject halal certification. Findings show that the dominance of primary stakeholders, namely tourists, is the main factor shaping MSME business orientation, which tends to follow tourists' preferences in offering food and beverage products. Conversely, the government's function as an institutional stakeholder in promoting halal certification is less effective, leading MSMEs to resist certification and rely on traditional halal-based offerings and product diversification into non-halal items to attract various tourist segments. This research contributes significantly to understanding power relations and interests among stakeholders in MSME management within tourism and policy implications related to halal certification. Limitations include geographic scope, focus on certain MSME groups in Gili Trawangan, and reliance on data subjectively reported by informants. Future research should broaden the context and include diverse MSME groups in different regions to obtain a more comprehensive picture of stakeholder influence on business orientation.

Abstract

Community policing, a proactive crime prevention strategy, faces unique challenges in apartment-based urban environments like South Jakarta's Kalibata City Apartment complex. These communities are characterized by higher levels of individualism and lower social cohesion, making it difficult to establish effective community-police partnerships. The study, involving 360 randomly selected residents, found that the social fabric of apartment communities lacks the integration necessary for successful community-policing partnerships. The study also highlighted the socio-spatial characteristics of apartment complexes, such as high population density and vertical living arrangements, which significantly shape the feasibility and outcomes of community policing initiatives. This research contributes to the broader discourse on urban policing by identifying key gaps in existing practices and emphasizing the need for context-sensitive approaches.

Abstract

This research examines the alignment between Restorative Justice concepts and constitutional principles embedded in Indonesia’s 1945 Constitution, analyzing its effectiveness in achieving substantive justice and social restoration. Employing normative legal research methodology with statute, conceptual, comparative, and case approaches, this study investigates how Restorative Justice can serve as an instrument for actualizing constitutional values within Indonesia's constitutional system. The research reveals profound philosophical harmonization between Restorative Justice principles and constitutional values, particularly regarding human rights protection (Article 28I), substantive justice (Article 28D), and the rule of law principle (Article 1(3)). The analysis demonstrates that Restorative Justice effectively achieves substantive justice through participatory processes that prioritize dialogue, accountability, and community involvement over punitive measures. Evidence from juvenile criminal justice implementation and comparative analysis with international practices indicates significant effectiveness in reducing recidivism rates and strengthening social cohesion. The study concludes that Restorative Justice constitutes a constitutional imperative rather than merely an alternative judicial mechanism, representing the actualization of substantive constitutionalism that aligns with Indonesia’s foundational Pancasila values. This research contributes to constitutional law scholarship by establishing a theoretical framework that integrates alternative justice mechanisms within constitutional governance, providing empirical evidence for constitutional-based Restorative Justice effectiveness, and offering methodological foundations for future research examining the intersection between constitutional values and innovative justice practices.

Abstract

Indonesia faces significant challenges in ensuring equitable health rights fulfillment despite having comprehensive health legislation, with persistent disparities in healthcare access across geographical and socioeconomic dimensions raising questions about the effectiveness of health rights implementation within the international human rights law framework. This research aims to analyze the implementation of health rights in Indonesia within the framework of international human rights law, evaluate the conformity of Indonesian health policies with international human rights standards, identify legal and policy factors contributing to healthcare access disparities, and assess the effectiveness of health regulation implementation in ensuring citizens’ health rights fulfillment. The study employs normative-empirical methods with a policy analysis approach. Research findings demonstrate that despite Indonesia’s comprehensive legal foundation from constitutional to technical, operational regulations, healthcare access disparities remain a complex structural challenge. The evaluation of AAAQ principles (Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability, and Quality) reveals significant geographical and socioeconomic inequality, particularly between urban-rural areas and western-eastern Indonesian regions. The effectiveness of health regulation implementation shows a paradox between firm normative commitments and diverse practical realities, with challenges including coordination complexity across government levels, limited healthcare human resources, and unequal health facility distribution. This research recommends human rights-based health policy reforms that integrate Pancasila values to create a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable healthcare system that achieves health justice in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper examines local culture and traditions as representations or means of accommodation for the socio-economic and cultural expectations of the Banjar community, particularly among women. Specifically, this paper explores how the Banjar community, especially Banjar women, build, grow, and transform knowledge through the reading of Siti Khadijah’s manaqib. The recitation of Siti Khadijah’s manaqib is a tradition among Banjar women, and it is performed on various occasions during specific religious rituals. In particular, the recitation of Siti Khadijah’s manaqib is also routinely carried out in religious institutions on the 11th day of each Hijri month. Banjar women in this study play an active role in socio-cultural transformation. An important finding in this study is that religious institutions, especially the ritual of reading Siti Khadijah’s manaqib, are a dynamic expression of Banjar women’s social and economic spirit. Through religious institutions, primarily through the ritual of reading Siti Khadijah’s manaqib, women play a role in dynamizing the economy and teaching worldly asceticism. Siti Khadijah’s reading of manaqib reflects how local communities foster and raise hopes for prosperity, ensuring the sustainability of life and society.

Abstract

Although Indonesia is known for its religious diversity, numerous incidents of intolerance reveal that symbols and practices of tolerance have yet to be deeply rooted in the country's social fabric. the Terowongan Silaturahmi in this context, a connecting passage between the Istiqlal Mosque and the Jakarta Cathedral—stands out as a rare spatial phenomenon symbolizing interfaith harmony in an urban landscape. This study aims to examine the aesthetic and architectural dimensions of the tunnel and analyze public perceptions of it as a representation of pluralist values. Employing a qualitative-descriptive approach supported by digital quantitative analysis, the study integrates architectural interpretation, literature review, and sentiment classification of 2,003 comments from 5 videos on the YouTube page using the IndoBERT model and word cloud visualization. The findings reveal that the tunnel is broadly perceived as a positive symbol of tolerance and national identity, though some resistance emerges from conservative groups. Therefore, the Terowongan Silaturahmi exempli-fies how architecture can function as a medium for dialogue and social education on interfaith coexistence within Indonesia's public spaces.

Abstract

Marriage in Islamic boarding schools plays a crucial role in shaping students’ religious, social, and moral character. At Pondok Pesantren Hidayatullah Balikpapan, marriage is part of the developmental program for mentally and spiritually prepared students. A distinctive feature is the absence of direct acquaintance between prospective spouses; sometimes, they only view each other’s photographs during administrative procedures. This study aims to understand the matchmaking mechanism at Pesantren Hidayatullah Balikpapan and analyze it from the perspectives of hadith and sociology. This research adopts a qualitative phenomenological approach. Data were collected on-site at Pondok Pesantren Hidayatullah Balikpapan through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and literature review. Purposive sampling was employed to select key informants. Data analysis involved data reduction, information simplification, and conclusion drawing. The study reveals three main findings. First, the initial mass marriage practice proceeded without a taaruf process, with the pesantren directly assigning couples. Second, over time, acquaintances via photographs emerged before the solemnization, and some students began proposing independently. Third, based on hadith, taaruf and viewing one’s prospective spouse are encouraged to foster family harmony. From a sociological standpoint, using Talcott Parsons’s AGIL framework, the practice without taaruf remains effective through social norm adaptation, collective goal attainment, structural integration, and preservation of the Pesantren’s traditional values.

Abstract

Environmental project-based language learning (EPBLL) is a promising approach for promoting language acquisition, environmental consciousness, and sustainable education among young learners. However, the present state of research on EPBLL in English language education for early learners needs to be better understood. This bibliometric study examines the state of EPBLL research over the past ten years. We conducted a bibliometric analysis of articles published between 2013 and 2023 that met our inclusion criteria using Scopus. Our analysis focused on publication trends, journal sources, citation counts, and identifying major research topics and themes in EPBLL research. Our study found a steady increase in EPBLL publications over the past ten years, with numerous journals contributing to this research field. We identified several important themes and areas of emphasis, such as the role of technology in EPBLL, the impact of EPBLL on language acquisition and environmental awareness, and the effectiveness of various pedagogical approaches to EPBLL. Our findings have significant implications for educators, researchers, and policymakers promoting sustainable education and language acquisition through project-based learning. This study provides insights into the state of EPBLL research in English language education for young learners and highlights essential research themes that can inform future studies in this area.

Abstract

Religious aspects are prominent determinants that shape diversity in Indonesia and have implications for problems of inter-religious relations related to intolerance and radicalism. This condition is a significant threat to national disintegration. The purpose of this study is to identify the potential of the social, cultural, and natural capital of local communities related to socio-religious diversity and to utilize this potential in the form of a multi-religious tourist village as a role model for learning and disseminating multicultural values ​​through multicultural educational tourism activities. The research was conducted in Kalisat Hamlet, Temanggung, Central Java, using research and development methods and participatory rural appraisal for participatory community development. The research stages began with identifying potential and problems in designing and developing a multi-religious-based tourist village model. The study results show that Kalisat Hamlet has excellent social, cultural, and natural potential as capital for developing the Kampung Bhinneka tourist village. The most prominent main point is the diversity of religions embraced by the Kalisat community, namely Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, and Sapta Dharma. In this diversity, the people of Dusun Kalisat live in harmony. With the support of infrastructure, management, local government support, and promotional media, Kampung Bhinneka in Dusun Kalisat will be able to become an alternative tourist destination that offers the concept of learning to live in a diverse society.
