Land ownership in Indonesia has both philosophical and juridical dimensions closely linked to citizenship status. According to the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA) of 1960, only Indonesian citizens are entitled to hold full ownership rights over land. This study aims to analyze the philosophical and juridical foundations of citizenship as a prerequisite for land ownership and its implications for social justice and national sovereignty. The research employs a normative legal method with statutory, conceptual, and philosophical approaches. Data are obtained through literature review of legislation, court decisions, and scholarly works, including Ahmad Muhammad Mustain Nasoha’s views on citizenship in the agrarian law context. The results indicate that restrictions on foreign land ownership are not merely administrative policies but a philosophical manifestation of the idea that land is essential to state sovereignty and public welfare. Juridically, this regulation reinforces the principles of nationality and distributive justice within Indonesia’s agrarian legal system. The study concludes that citizenship as a requirement for land ownership functions as a legal safeguard of the nation’s right to the land and a means to achieve social justice.  

Losing citizenship has significant legal consequences, particularly concerning land ownership rights. According to the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA) No. 5 of 1960, land ownership is only permitted for Indonesian citizens. Therefore, individuals who lose their citizenship status automatically forfeit their right to own land. This study aims to analyze the legal implications of losing citizenship on land ownership rights and the resolution mechanisms outlined in the UUPA. The research employs a normative legal approach using secondary data sources such as laws and regulations, legal literature, and court decisions. The findings indicate that individuals who lose their citizenship are required to relinquish or transfer their land ownership within one year. If this is not done, the ownership rights will be nullified by law, and the land will revert to the state. This reflects the protection of the principles of nationality and national sovereignty in land control. Therefore, resolving land ownership issues for individuals who lose their citizenship is crucial to balancing individual rights and state interests.

Pancasila, as the state foundation and the source of all sources of law, has a strategic role in shaping the national education system, including religious-based institutions such as pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) and madrasah diniyah (non-formal Islamic religious schools). This study aims to examine how Pancasila values are internalized into the curriculum, school regulations, and educational practices of pesantren and madrasah diniyah. The research uses a qualitative approach with a library study design. Data were obtained from literature, journals, regulations, and official documents. The findings show that Pancasila provides a normative foundation for the development of pesantren education regulations and serves as an ethical guideline for shaping students’ character. The values of divinity, humanity, unity, deliberation, and social justice are reflected in educational practices, although the implementation is often influenced by local culture and the autonomy of pesantren. In conclusion, Pancasila functions not only as the basic legal norm but also as a source of inspiration for moral and civic education in pesantren and madrasah diniyah.

In an era of globalization marked by increased cross-border interactions, legal relationships in international contracts have become increasingly complex and demand legal certainty for the parties involved. This study aims to analyze the implementation of choice of law clauses in the settlement of international contract disputes from the perspective of International Civil Law. The method used is normative legal research with a qualitative analytical approach through a review of regulations, doctrines, and relevant legal literature. The results of the study show that choice of law clauses play an important role in providing legal certainty, efficiency in the dispute resolution process, and protection of the interests of the parties. However, its application is still limited by the principle of public policy and mandatory rules in the forum country. Thus, the choice of law clause is an important instrument that reflects the balance between the principle of party autonomy and the principle of state sovereignty in the practice of International Civil Law.

This study examines the effectiveness of law enforcement regarding violations of Article 287 paragraph (2) of Law Number 22 of 2009 on Road Traffic and Transportation, particularly concerning red-light violations (APILL). Although the legal provisions are clearly formulated, practical implementation reveals a gap between the normative expectations (das Sollen) and actual conditions (das Sein). This research employs a normative juridical method supported by secondary empirical data, analyzed through Lawrence M. Friedman’s legal system theory and Satjipto Rahardjo’s theory of law enforcement. The findings show that the effectiveness of enforcing red-light regulations is influenced by structural aspects of law enforcement agencies, the community’s weak legal culture, and supporting facilities such as the uneven distribution of ETLE systems. The study concludes that the enforcement of Article 287 paragraph (2) remains suboptimal, and therefore requires strengthening ETLE infrastructure, improving officer professionalism, reassessing the proportionality of sanctions, and enhancing public legal education to increase traffic compliance.

Legal protection for consumers is a crucial element in the legal relationship between business actors and the public, particularly in high-risk service sectors such as gas stove repair services. In practice, many consumers still experience losses due to negligence by service providers, whether caused by inadequate technical handling or insufficient information regarding the condition of the stove after repairs. This study aims to identify and analyze the forms of legal protection available to consumers who suffer losses as a result of such negligence, as well as to determine the types of legal liability that may be imposed on gas stove repair service providers. Using a normative legal research method, this study applies both legislative and conceptual approaches. The legislative approach examines relevant laws and regulations concerning consumer protection, while the conceptual approach analyzes legal principles and expert doctrines related to liability. The findings indicate that consumer protection is provided in two forms: preventive protection, which ensures product and service safety in accordance with Indonesian National Standards (SNI), and repressive protection, which is implemented through enforcement mechanisms such as claims for compensation or dispute resolution through the Consumer Dispute Settlement Agency (BPSK) or the courts. Business actors who commit negligence in providing repair services can be held legally responsible based on the principles of negligence or strict liability. To strengthen consumer protection, the study recommends the establishment of derivative regulations concerning technician certification, standardized repair service procedures, and integrated supervision of safety compliance within the gas stove repair service industry.

Language processing disorders are disorders that arise when someone is under mental stress or experiencing deep emotional trauma. This study aims to analyze the various types of language processing disorders experienced by the character Tari in the film "Bolehkah Sekali Saja Aku Menangis" (May I Cry Once) and to determine the relationship between the character's emotional state and the linguistic symptoms that appear. This study uses a qualitative approach with a naturalistic approach and analytical descriptive methods, where data are collected through observation and recording of dialogues in the film that show signs of language disorders. Samples were taken purposively based on statements that indicate irregularities in sentence structure, long pauses, repetitions, or inappropriate word choices. This analysis compares the results of the study with existing psycholinguistic theories regarding how language processing works and the influence of trauma on speech production. The findings of this study indicate four main types of language processing disorders experienced by the character Tari: unfinished sentences, long pauses, repetitions of words or phrases, and inaccuracies in word choice. These types of disorders are more apparent when the character experiences high emotional stress and when interacting with family members related to her trauma.  The results of this study support the theory that emotional trauma can disrupt verbal working memory function and speech planning processes, ultimately impeding communication skills.

The implementation of management information systems is a crucial instrument for improving the effectiveness of performance and service quality in local government agencies. The digital transformation driven by national policy requires local governments to manage data and information in an integrated, accurate, and timely manner. However, in practice, the implementation of management information systems still faces various obstacles, both in terms of human resources, technological infrastructure, and organizational policy support. This study aims to analyze the implementation of management information systems in local government agencies and identify the supporting and inhibiting factors that influence it. The research method used is a qualitative approach through a literature review of national journals and relevant scientific papers published between 2021 and 2025. Data were analyzed descriptively and analytically to obtain a comprehensive picture of the implementation patterns of management information systems in local government. The analysis results indicate that management information systems contribute positively to improving the effectiveness of organizational performance and the quality of public services when supported by competent personnel, available infrastructure, and leadership commitment. Conversely, weak coordination, limited human resources, and resistance to change are the main factors hindering implementation. This research is expected to serve as evaluation material and a reference for local governments in optimizing the implementation of management information systems on a sustainable basis.

The student admission process in many educational institutions is still conducted manually, leading to issues such as data duplication, input errors, and delays in reporting. This study designs and implements a desktop-based student registration information system using VB.NET and MySQL, equipped with an admission-status checking feature and an automated quota-management module. The system was developed using the waterfall model, consisting of requirement analysis, system design using UML, implementation, and black-box testing. Two user roles are supported: admin and student. Admin users can manage applicant data, configure program quotas, open or close the registration period, and generate reports, while student users can create accounts, complete registration forms, and independently check their admission results. The implementation results show that all core functions operate validly based on testing involving two respondents. The quota-management feature successfully restricts the number of applicants according to predetermined capacities, and the admission-status module automatically displays pass or fail results. The system improves administrative efficiency, enhances data accuracy, and reduces reliance on manual record-keeping. Therefore, this desktop application serves as an effective solution for schools requiring a reliable and efficient admission management system without depending on stable internet connectivity.
