This community service program addresses the growing ethical challenges of design practices in social media, particularly among children and adolescents. Social media platforms are not merely communication tools but persuasive digital products that influence behavior, emotions, and information consumption. This program aimed to enhance ethical design literacy among members of the Children’s forum in Tangerang Regency through an interactive workshop combining theoretical education, case studies, and practical design exercises. The methodology involved participatory training sessions, including lectures on design ethics, identification of dark patterns, privacy-by-design practices, and hands-on content creation using social media platforms. The results indicate increased participant awareness of ethical principles such as transparency, visual honesty, respect for copyright, and privacy protection. Participants demonstrated improved ability to identify unethical design elements and to produce simple yet responsible visual content. The program contributes to strengthening digital ethics awareness among young social media users and highlights the importance of collaborative, community-based approaches in fostering responsible digital culture.

The provision of legal aid represents the state’s responsibility to ensure access to justice and legal protection, particularly for impoverished and vulnerable groups. Within the framework of regional governance, this responsibility is carried out by local governments through regional apparatuses with authority in legal affairs, including the Legal Bureau of Central Java Province. This article examines the position and authority of the Central Java Provincial Legal Bureau in the administration of legal aid and analyzes the urgency of its dual role as both facilitator and regulator. This study aims to analyze the legal basis of such authority and the implications of the dual role in the implementation of regional legal aid. The research employs a normative juridical method using statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings indicate that the Legal Bureau of Central Java Province possesses administrative authority derived from the delegation of authority by the governor, enabling it to perform both facilitative and regulatory functions in legal aid administration. However, the absence of explicit regulatory boundaries between these roles potentially leads to overlapping authority. Nevertheless, as long as these roles are exercised in accordance with their legal basis and the principles of good governance, the dual role may function as an effective administrative instrument to ensure the effective delivery of legal aid and the protection of citizens’ rights.   Keywords : legal aid, authority, dual role.

UMKM Digital transformation in local governance is an important instrument in realizing the principles of good governance, especially in regions with complex geographical challenges. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of e-government implementation at the district level in encouraging community participation in the local development planning process, using a case study of the Fof District Office, Tambrauw Regency. The methods used were descriptive qualitative through field observations, in-depth interviews with district officials and community leaders, and analysis of development documents. The data was analyzed through the stages of reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that the implementation of e-government in Fef District is in a transition phase. Bureaucratic digitization improves administrative efficiency and transparency of public information. However, its effectiveness in expanding community participation is still low. The main obstacles include limited telecommunications infrastructure in several villages and low community digital literacy. As a result, participation in Musrenbang remains dominated by conventional mechanisms, while digital platforms serve primarily as a means of one-way reporting. This study emphasizes that the success of digital transformation depends on the readiness of infrastructure and community capacity, so a hybrid approach that integrates technology with local wisdom is needed to strengthen participation in regional development.

The relocation of the Social Welfare Shelter Environment (Lingkungan Pondok Sosial/Liponsos) in Sidoarjo represents a strategic effort to address social and spatial issues characterized by overcapacity, limited facilities, and an inadequate living environment that does not fully support the physical and psychological needs of people with social welfare problems (PMKS). These conditions indicate that the challenges faced by Liponsos are not merely social in nature but are also closely related to the quality of the built environment, which significantly influences the rehabilitation and recovery process of its residents. Therefore, a human-centered design approach is required in planning social service facilities. This study aims to analyze the application of humanistic architecture principles in the planned relocation of the Sidoarjo Liponsos as a foundation for creating a more livable, dignified, and user-oriented environment. The research employs a literature review method by collecting data from relevant books, journals, regulations, and previous studies. The analysis is conducted using descriptive and content analysis to examine the relationship between humanistic architectural principles and the needs of residents within social welfare facilities. The results indicate that the humanistic architectural approach is highly relevant to the relocation of Liponsos, particularly through spatial zoning based on levels of privacy and security, the provision of green open spaces and communal areas as media for social interaction and therapeutic activities, and the design of self-development spaces that support rehabilitation and empowerment. The implementation of these principles is expected to create a built environment that not only fulfills basic functional requirements but also supports psychological recovery, social stability, and sustainable improvement in the quality of life of PMKS residents.  

The role of ports as crucial nodes in the global supply chain positions the maritime sector as one of the most dynamic industries worldwide. This research analyzes the strengthening of business law support maritime sector integration to enhance port operational efficiency and the role of business law instruments in realizing the principle of fair competition within ports. This research employs a normative legal approach focusing on the study of existing legal norms and regulations governing port management and maritime integration. The strengthening of business law in the maritime sector plays a crucial role in improving port operational efficiency. A strong and well coordinated business law framework will create ports that are more efficient, competitive, and adaptive to the changing demands of the global market. Several key principles must be developed. First, rules on information disclosure and accountability to ensure transparency in port governance. Second, prohibitions against abuse of dominant positions and oversight of vertical integration to prevent anti-competitive practices. Third, clear contractual norms and governance structures for public private partnerships (PPP), including proportional risk-sharing mechanisms to ensure fairness and efficiency in infrastructure development. Fourth, multi-level governance alignment across national and regional authorities to prevent incentive distortions.

This study analyzes the implementation of Good Governance in enhancing consular services at the Consulate General of the Republic of Indonesia in Tawau, using a qualitative approach with a case study paradigm. The findings reveal several key points: First, transparency in consular services is achieved through openness about procedures, fees, and service time standards via official platforms like websites, social media, and notice boards. This transparency reduces information asymmetry, prevents maladministration, and builds trust. Second, service accountability is reflected in the timely execution of passport renewals, Emergency Travel Documents, and document legalization, following Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Accountability is further demonstrated through performance reports, complaint channels, and service evaluations. Third, public participation is fostered through two-way communication, complaint mechanisms, and collaboration with Indonesian citizen and migrant worker communities. The mobile consular service program also enhances accessibility. Finally, consular services are based on clear legal frameworks, ensuring the legitimacy of services and protection for Indonesian citizens and migrant workers. Overall, the study concludes that the implementation of Good Governance principles at the Consulate General of Indonesia in Tawau significantly improves the quality of consular services.

The Regional Public Library of Sidoarjo Regency plays an important role as a public facility in supporting the development of community literacy. Along with population growth and the advancement of the education sector, the library is required to provide spaces that are comfortable, safe, and inclusive for all users. However, existing conditions indicate various architectural problems that potentially hinder the optimal function of the library. This study aims to identify architectural issues at the Regional Public Library of Sidoarjo Regency, including building conditions, spatial layout, user comfort, and the availability of thematic literacy facilities and inclusive spaces. The research method employed observation and literature review. Field observation was conducted to document the actual conditions of the building and library facilities, while the literature review focused on library standards, building regulations, and relevant architectural theories. The results show that although the library building is structurally adequate, the quality of space has not fully met the required standards of comfort, safety, and functionality. The spatial arrangement remains conventional and lacks flexibility, limiting its ability to support diverse literacy activities. In addition, thematic literacy facilities and the application of inclusive design principles are still limited. This study concludes that architectural development efforts are needed, focusing on improving spatial quality, implementing adaptive spatial planning, and providing more diverse and inclusive literacy facilities. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for future development planning of the Regional Public Library of Sidoarjo Regency in order to enhance its role as an educational public space and a community literacy center.

This study aims to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of bureaucratic reform in realizing good governance and improving the quality of public services in Indonesia. The research employs a library research method by reviewing various relevant academic sources, including journals, books, and official reports. The findings indicate that bureaucratic reform has a positive impact on enhancing efficiency, effectiveness, transparency, and accountability in public administration. The implementation of reforms through service digitalization, procedural simplification, and the application of standard operating procedures (SOPs) has significantly improved the quality of public services, particularly in terms of speed, accessibility, and service certainty. Furthermore, bureaucratic reform promotes the implementation of good governance principles, such as transparency, participation, and accountability. However, several challenges remain, including resistance to change, limited human resource competencies, and uneven policy implementation across government institutions. Therefore, continuous efforts are required through capacity building, strengthening monitoring systems, and optimizing the use of information technology to ensure the sustainability and success of bureaucratic reform.

Drug misuse continues to be a complicated social and legal issue that has an impact on societal stability, public health, and personal wellbeing. Many criminal justice systems have moved away from punitive tactics in favor of rehabilitation-focused ones in recent years, especially for drug users who are frequently viewed as sufferers of addiction rather than serious criminals. The National Narcotics Agency (BNN) in Indonesia is implementing rehabilitation programs and restorative justice processes as a result of this change. This study investigates the efficacy of restorative justice in drug rehabilitation at Jambi Province's National Narcotics Agency and evaluates its applicability from the standpoint of Islamic law, specifically the framework of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah. The study uses a case study design and a qualitative methodology. Participant observation, document analysis, and in-depth interviews with BNN officials, rehabilitation counselors, medical staff, and ex-drug users were used to gather data. The results show that an integrated evaluation system that assesses drug users' physical, psychological, and social states in order to determine their eligibility for recovery is used to institutionally apply restorative justice principles. Combining medical care, psychological counseling, and social reintegration programs, the rehabilitation programs greatly aid in participants' recuperation, enhance psychological stability, and fortify familial ties. Additionally, by promoting individual responsibility, family support, and community involvement, restorative justice-based rehabilitation lowers the risk of recidivism. From the standpoint of Islamic legal philosophy, these actions are consistent with the goals of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, specifically the defense of human dignity, life (ḥifḍ al-nafs), and intellect (ḥifḍ al-ʿaql). According to the study's findings, restorative justice-based rehabilitation is a compassionate and successful method of treating drug dependency while encouraging social reintegration and long-term recovery.

As the foundation and official ideology of the Indonesian state, Pancasila plays a crucial role in guiding the management of national affairs and the overall conduct of state life. The core principles of Pancasila divinity, humanism, unity, democracy, and social justice reflect the character, identity, and collective values of the diverse Indonesian people. The purpose of this study is to examine in depth the function of Pancasila as a state ideology and the significance of implementing its principles in contemporary and evolving society. Through the exploration and analysis of various scholarly sources, including books, academic journals, and official state documents, this research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method. The findings indicate that Pancasila functions not only as the nation’s way of life but also as the philosophical foundation of the state and a unifying ideology within Indonesia’s heterogeneous society. Furthermore, the preservation of national identity, the strengthening of social cohesion and peace, and the ability to face the challenges of industrialization and globalization are highly dependent on the successful internalization of Pancasila’s values. Therefore, to achieve sustainable and inclusive national development, consistent and continuous efforts are required to enhance understanding, appreciation, and implementation of Pancasila’s values across all levels of society.

Good governance has become a crucial framework for improving public sector effectiveness, accountability, and responsiveness to citizens’ needs. In Indonesia, decentralization policies since 1999 have devolved significant authority and resources to local governments, creating both opportunities and challenges in implementing good governance principles. This study examines administrative reform efforts in Indonesian local governments, focusing on progress, challenges, and key success factors. Using a multiple case study design, the research analyzed reform initiatives in six district/city governments with diverse contexts. Data were collected through document analysis, semi-structured interviews with government officials, civil society representatives, and citizens, as well as direct observation of administrative processes conducted between March and November 2024. The study assessed six core principles of good governance: participation, transparency, accountability, effectiveness and efficiency, equity and inclusiveness, and rule of law. The findings reveal variations in implementation across regions, with high-performing governments demonstrating strong leadership commitment, systematic planning, active citizen engagement, and effective monitoring mechanisms. However, challenges persist, including limited capacity, bureaucratic resistance, weak accountability enforcement, and low public participation. Key success factors include visionary leadership, capacity development, strategic partnerships, and institutional strengthening. Policy recommendations emphasize enhancing local capacity, accountability systems, citizen participation, and performance evaluation.

Politeness in language use is a crucial aspect that has become an integral part of Indonesian culture. Politeness norms almost always serve as a reference in every speech act. Since politeness is culturally embedded, what is considered polite in one society may not be perceived the same in another. The YouTube channel Gromore Studio Series presents Central Javanese folktales with dialogic narration rich in linguistic expressions; however, it has not been widely analyzed from the perspective of language politeness. This study aims to analyze language politeness in six folktale videos on the channel using a descriptive qualitative method with content analysis techniques. The data were analyzed based on Leech’s (1983) six maxims of politeness. The results show that most dialogues adhere to the principles of politeness, with 106 data conforming and 38 violating them. The most frequently observed maxim is the Agreement Maxim (28 instances), followed by the Approbation Maxim (26 instances), while the least frequent is the Obligation of O to S Maxim (8 instances). The application of language politeness in these folktales emphasizes harmony, respect, and solidarity among characters, while violations occur less frequently. This study provides valuable insights for research in pragmatic linguistics, the development of culturally based educational content, and the understanding of language politeness in digital media contexts.  

This study aims to analyze the application of good governance principles in the management of ECE grants by regional governments, focusing on aspects of transparency, accountability, public participation, and legal certainty. The study employs a qualitative approach using Qualitative Secondary Analysis (QSA), analyzing various secondary data sources such as policy documents, government reports, previous research findings, and relevant academic literature on education grant management. Data analysis was conducted systematically through data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the implementation of transparency in ECE grant management is reflected in the openness of information regarding grant application procedures, recipient selection mechanisms, and fund usage reporting. Accountability is realized through administrative and financial accountability mechanisms that must be fulfilled by both regional governments and ECE institutions receiving the grants. Public participation is evident from the involvement of communities, ECE institution managers, and parents in the planning, implementation, and supervision of the grant program. Meanwhile, legal certainty in grant management is demonstrated by the existence of regulations that clearly govern grant provision mechanisms, fund disbursement procedures, and obligations for reporting and accountability in fund utilization. The study concludes that the application of good governance principles in the management of ECE grants by regional governments plays a crucial role in enhancing transparency, accountability, and effectiveness in educational fund management. Furthermore, community involvement and regulatory certainty serve as key supporting factors in achieving better governance of education grants.

The development of digital media has transformed Islamic da’wah into a digitally mediated form of religious communication, reshaping structures of authority, engagement, and community formation. However, existing research remains fragmented and lacks a comprehensive structural map. This study conducted a Systematic Literature Network Analysis (SLNA) of Scopus-indexed publications on Islamic da’wah via digital platforms from 2016 to 2026. Using PRISMA-based screening techniques and bibliometric methods—including co-authorship, co-citation, and co-occurrence analyses with VOSviewer—the study analyzed 74 peer-reviewed journal articles. The results indicate a significant increase in the number of publications, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic. The field is structured around four main themes: platform-based engagement strategies, youth identity formation, digital authority and ethics, and the adaptation of prophetic communication principles to the online context. Although Indonesia and Malaysia dominate the research output, the collaborative network remains relatively dispersed. New topics such as the influence of algorithms and AI-supported da‘wah suggest an expansion toward interdisciplinary directions. This study provides the first comprehensive map based on Scopus for research on Islamic digital da‘wah and offers a foundation for future theoretical and empirical development.

The reform of Indonesia’s criminal law through Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (KUHP) marks a fundamental shift in the national criminal justice system, particularly through the formal recognition of the living law as law that lives within society. This article analyzes the correlation between living law and the principle of legality within the context of national criminal law reform. The study employs a normative juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches to examine how the 2023 Criminal Code seeks to balance legal certainty with substantive justice. The findings indicate that the regulation of the principle of legality in Article 1 of the KUHP remains the primary foundation for ensuring the protection of individual rights and preventing arbitrary state actions. However, the recognition of living law under Article 2 of the KUHP expands the sources of criminal law beyond written statutes to include social values living within the community, insofar as they are consistent with Pancasila, general legal principles, and human rights. The relationship between the principle of legality and living law in the 2023 KUHP is not antagonistic but rather complementary and harmonious. Living law enriches the legality principle substantively through moral and social justice dimensions, while the legality principle serves as a normative safeguard to maintain legal certainty and prevent the abuse of power. Therefore, the integration of both principles reflects a new paradigm of Indonesian criminal law that is pluralistic, just, and civilized, reaffirming the nation’s legal politics grounded in Pancasila values and the principles of a democratic rule of law.

This study aims to analyze the legal provisions on land rights for foreign nationals in the Indonesian land law system and to examine the validity and legal consequences of nominee agreements in the control of land rights by foreign investors. The background of this study is based on the practice of using nominee agreements (borrowing names) by foreign nationals to control land in Indonesia, which legally contradicts the provisions of the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA) which prohibits ownership of land rights by foreign parties. This study uses a normative legal research method with a legislative approach and a conceptual approach. The legal sources used include primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials that are analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study indicate that the regulation of land rights for foreign nationals in the Indonesian legal system is limited to use rights, lease rights, or through certain legal entities such as Foreign Investment Limited Liability Companies (PT PMA). Meanwhile, the practice of nominee agreements is a form of legal smuggling that contradicts the basic principles of national agrarian law, so that the agreement can be declared null and void. In addition, this practice creates legal uncertainty and has the potential to harm the state and society because it obscures the status of land ownership. In conclusion, firm law enforcement and regulatory harmonization between agrarian and investment law are needed to ensure legal certainty and safeguard state sovereignty over land, without hindering foreign investment in Indonesia.

The policy plan to integrate parking fees into the Vehicle Registration Certificate (STNK), scheduled for nationwide implementation in 2027, has generated debate regarding contractual validity and fiscal justice. From the perspective of Islamic Economic Law, the transformation from a conventional pay-per-use retribution system to an annual prepaid system raises issues related to mutual consent (an-taradin) and the certainty of service benefits. This study aims to analyze the 2027 subscription parking policy using the framework of Maslahah Mursalah and the principle of distributive economic justice to assess its legitimacy as an instrument of public welfare. This research uses a normative legal method with conceptual and statutory approaches. Literature data are analyzed qualitatively through deductive reasoning to derive legal conclusions from general principles of Islamic economics in relation to contemporary fiscal policy. The findings indicate that the policy contains elements of Maslahah Mursalah, particularly in improving bureaucratic efficiency and preventing state revenue leakage (sadd adz-dzari'ah). However, from the perspective of distributive justice, the policy may contain elements of dzulm (injustice) if it is not supported by fair tariff segmentation. Without guaranteed service availability for all payers, mandatory annual parking fees risk being categorized as akl al-amwal bi al-bathil (unlawful appropriation of wealth). Therefore, a zoning-based tariff system is recommended to ensure fairness between obligations and benefits.

Liquidity management is an important aspect in maintaining the operational stability of Islamic banking. Inadequate liquidity management can affect a bank’s ability to fulfill its short-term obligations and reduce public trust in banking institutions. This study aims to examine the basic concepts of liquidity management, liquidity management practices, and the various challenges faced by Islamic banks in maintaining financial stability. The study employed a qualitative method using a literature review approach through the examination of various sources, including books, scientific journals, and research articles relevant to the topic. The collected data were analyzed descriptively to obtain a systematic understanding of liquidity management in Islamic banking. The findings indicate that liquidity management in Islamic banks is carried out through asset and liability management, fund collection, financing distribution, and the implementation of GAP management. In addition, Islamic banking faces several challenges, including the limited availability of Islamic money market instruments, imbalance between assets and liabilities, risks of massive customer withdrawals, and changes in economic conditions and regulations. Therefore, adaptive liquidity management strategies based on prudential principles are required to maintain operational stability and ensure the sustainability of Islamic banking institutions.

This study examines the paradigm shift in termination of employment from unfair dismissal to corporate efficiency by comparing Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning Job Creation. Two research questions are proposed. First, how changes in the regulation of termination of employment shape this paradigm shift. Second, how the regulation of termination of employment due to efficiency in Law Number 6 of 2023 compares with Law Number 13 of 2003 in terms of worker protection. This study uses a normative juridical method. The results show that the paradigm shift occurs in three dimensions: the basic framework (from ultimum remedium to flexibility), the efficiency position (from limited reasons with high compensation to broad reasons with lower compensation), and the logic of protection (from preventive to repressive, based on immature social security). The regulation of termination of employment due to efficiency in Law Number 6 of 2023 continues to provide protection, but qualitatively decreases due to the loss of objective parameters and the absence of preventive obligations. The proposed strengthening strategies include establishing objective efficiency parameters, strengthening oversight mechanisms, evaluating the Job Loss Guarantee program, and ensuring strict interpretation by the judiciary. This study concludes that without these improvements, the paradigm shift could potentially conflict with the principles of the rule of law and social justice.

This study aims to design and develop a functionally efficient and operationally effective Internet of Things (IoT)-based air quality monitoring system for radiology departments. The system utilises a DHT22 sensor integrated with an ESP32 microcontroller to monitor the temperature and humidity of diagnostic rooms in real time, and to display the data via the UdaraKu mobile application. The research method employed a quantitative experimental approach focused on measuring system performance, specifically the accuracy of the temperature and humidity sensors. The research model used was the Research and Development (R&D) method, aimed at transforming conventional air quality monitoring in radiology into a real-time digital system based on IoT. The research results indicate that the IoT-based monitoring system is capable of maintaining room temperature and humidity stability within the ideal range, namely 22–24°C and 50–60% RH, in accordance with international standards. This improvement in environmental stability has a direct impact on reducing noise in digital radiography images, as evidenced by an increase in the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). Instrument validation demonstrated a high level of reliability with a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.848, reinforcing the reliability of the data and the system. Overall, the IoT-based air quality monitoring system has proven effective in controlling noise in digital radiography images, improving the quality of diagnostic services, and supporting patient safety principles and operational efficiency within radiology departments.
