Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze justice on the Internet post Constitutional Court Decision Number 105/PUU-XII/2024 which provide strengthening of protection of freedom of expression on the Internet. This research is a normative legal research with a statutory, conceptual, and case approach. The results of the study found that restrictions on freedom of expression on the Internet in the Law on Electronic Information and Transaction are problematic because they are irrational, unfair, disproportionate, and tend to conflict with the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. Through Decision Number 105/PUU-XII/2024, the Constitutional Court has realized justice on the Internet by providing proportional protection of freedom of expression on the Internet. The decision provides freedom for everyone to express themselves on the Internet, such as conveying criticism, provided that their expression does not degrade the dignity or good name of others. Government institutions, professions, or positions are excluded from subjects that can be victims of defamation. The government can no longer prosecute citizens who criticize the policies it has taken. The decision provides guidelines for enforcing the law against violations of freedom of expression on the Internet.

Abstract

The granting of clemency as a presidential prerogative within the Indonesian legal system has sparked considerable debate, particularly when applied to narcotics offenders classified as perpetrators of hard crimes. This study examines the case of Muhammad Aldin Purwanto, a narcotics convict who was granted clemency in the form of sentence reduction, despite having previously been sentenced to seven years' imprisonment for acting as an intermediary in the sale of a Schedule I narcotic substance. Clemency was granted on the grounds of good behavior and his role as the primary breadwinner for his family. This research aims to analyze the granting of clemency within the framework of justice, employing a normative juridical method with both conceptual and case study approaches. The study reveals a tension between the principle of retributive justice, which demands proportionate punishment for criminal acts, and the restorative justice approach, which emphasizes offender rehabilitation. The clemency granted in this case presents both a moral and legal dilemma, as it may be interpreted as a denial of retributive justice and a dilution of the meaning of criminal responsibility. The findings suggest that the absence of clear parameters for granting clemency creates vulnerabilities to policy deviation, potentially undermining the legitimacy of the criminal justice system itself. Therefore, a reformulation of clemency policy is necessary through clearer legal regulation, grounded in justice-based principles. Clemency should be guided by rational, objective, and balanced legal considerations that weigh both the rights of the convict and the public sense of justice.

Abstract

The issue of climate change is a global environmental challenge that requires comprehensive collaboration between countries. The Paris Agreement was born as an international legal instrument under the auspices of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), with a nationally determined contributions (NDCs) approach and the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities. The United States, as one of the world's largest emitters, plays a key role in emissions reduction efforts and provides financial assistance to developing countries. However, the United States' unilateral decision to withdraw from the Paris Agreement during the Donald Trump administration, citing economic interests, has sparked debate regarding the binding force of international agreements. Through a normative legal approach and analysis of the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, it was found that the United States' withdrawal contradicts the provisions of Article 62 concerning a fundamental change of circumstances. This situation demonstrates the dilemma between national sovereignty and compliance with global commitments. Therefore, strengthening the enforcement and implementation mechanisms of international agreements in the environmental sector is necessary to ensure the achievement of global ecological justice.

Abstract

Recently, interest in skincare products has grown dramatically. As a result, there is intense competition due to the emergence of numerous new skincare brands. Some skincare brands, in their pursuit of greater profits, resort to unethical practices, such as overclaiming the ingredients on the packaging. These exaggerated claims not only deceive consumers but also result in a significant discrepancy between the promised and actual ingredient composition which lead to potential harm to consumers' health and financial losses. This research's legal concern is corporate actors' liability for making exaggerated claims about the ingredients’ composition that harms consumers’ rights. This research offers a novel perspective to the legal protection for consumers by focusing specifically on ingredients overclaims in skincare products that do not match reality. The analysis is based on articles on consumer rights in Law No. 8/1999 using the normative legal method. Through this research, it was found that the legal responsibility of business actors is often hindered by gaps in law enforcement processes. These challenges, such as inadequate regulation enforcement and lack of transparency, must be addressed to mitigate the widespread phenomenon of ingredient overclaims in the skincare industry. In conclusion, effective legal safeguards and more stringent monitoring mechanisms are essential to uphold consumer rights and ensure fair business practices within the skincare sector.
