This study explores the representation of sexual violence and women's resistance in Shireishou's novel Obsessive Loves. Utilizing a qualitative approach with content analysis, the research examines how the narrative addresses the psychological trauma of the victims and the patriarchal social structures that perpetuate sexual violence. Drawing on Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalytic theories alongside Walby’s feminist perspectives and the concept of rape culture, the study identifies and interprets critical excerpts from the novel. The findings reveal that Obsessive Loves portrays sexual violence as a systemic issue tied to power dynamics within patriarchal structures, reflecting deep psychological impacts such as PTSD and dissociation. The novel also highlights women's resistance as a form of empowerment and recovery, emphasizing the importance of solidarity and social support. This research contributes to feminist literary studies by demonstrating how fiction serves as a powerful medium for critiquing patriarchal norms and advocating for social change.

Sexual violence against children is a crucial issue that requires the active role of various parties, including educators and the community, in prevention efforts. This community service aims to increase children's understanding at the BERKAH AR-RAHIM Tarakan Orphanage about the concept of safe touch and unsafe touch through education based on educational props (APE) in the form of paper puppets. The activity will be held on December 25 2024 carried out in three educational sessions which include educational demonstrations, guided discussions, and simulative exercises using paper puppets which are designed to be interesting and age appropriate. A total of 24 children were involved in this activity, and the evaluation results showed a significant increase in children's understanding of self-protection against sexual violence. Before the activity, most children had a low level of understanding, but after the activity took place, there was an increase to 75% of children reaching the good understanding category. This activity shows that a visual-based educational approach is able to simplify complex concepts and make it easier for children to understand self-protection messages. Using paper puppets as an educational medium has proven to be an effective and fun method. It is hoped that this activity can become a preventive education model that can be applied to prevent sexual violence against children

The development of digital technology based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) has had a significant impact on society, including the emergence of new crimes such as deepfake pornography. Deepfake pornography is a form of AI misuse that creates fake pornographic content by manipulating a person's face into a video or image without consent. This phenomenon raises complex legal issues within the Indonesian criminal law system. This study aims to examine how Indonesian criminal law regulates AI deviations in the form of deepfake pornography and to assess the effectiveness of these regulations in providing legal protection. This research uses a normative approach with qualitative analysis methods and the theory of legal effectiveness as the analytical tool. The research findings indicate that AI deviations in the form of deepfake pornography are not specifically regulated in Indonesia's positive criminal law. The applicable regulations are still general in nature, scattered across several laws such as the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (ITE Law), Personal Data Protection Law, Pornography Law, Sexual Violence Criminal Act Law, Copyright Law, and the Criminal Code (KUHP), which do not comprehensively address the technological aspects and psychosocial impacts of this crime. Based on Soerjono Soekanto's theory of legal effectiveness, the existing regulations are not yet effective, as seen from the legal substance, law enforcement, legal facilities and infrastructure, community factors, and legal culture. Therefore, a responsive legal reform is needed to keep pace with digital technological developments, along with strengthening the capacity of law enforcement institutions.

Familicide or murder of a nuclear family member. Urbanization in Japan has exacerbated the risk of familicide by changing patterns of social interaction and increasing life stress. Unfortunately, Japan's criminal policy still has weaknesses in detecting and preventing familicide. This study aims to explore the phenomenon of familicide in urban Japanese society through a critical analysis of existing criminal policies. This study uses a qualitative research method with a conceptual approach.

This research aims to analyze the mitigation of the risk of exploitation and violence against women Indonesian migrant workers in the informal sector as well as the responsibilities of the government and migrant employment agencies. Using the normative juridical method, this research examines relevant legal norms, such as the Indonesian Migrant Workers Protection Act, to evaluate the protection of women migrant workers' rights. Data is obtained from documentation of primary and secondary legal sources, analyzed using a feminist perspective to understand vulnerability factors and challenges in the feminization of migration. The results show that mitigating the risk of exploitation and violence against women Indonesian migrant workers in the informal sector includes preventive measures, such as pre-departure education, skills training, recruitment agency supervision, and legal empowerment. During the working period, protection is carried out through standardized work contracts, access to social protection, and bilateral cooperation, while post-work, economic and social reintegration is carried out through mentoring and entrepreneurship training. However, weak implementation of regulations, lack of oversight, and sectoral silos exacerbate the vulnerability of women Indonesian migrant workers in the informal sector to exploitation, discrimination, and rights violations. The responsibilities of the government and migrant employment agencies include legal protection at all stages of migration, from pre-departure recruitment, monitoring of working conditions, and post-employment reintegration programs to ensure that women migrant workers receive comprehensive protection through effective enforcement of employment contracts, legal aid, monitoring, and social reintegration. This research recommends improved regulation, pre-departure education, recruitment agency supervision, legal empowerment, and post-worker reintegration to reduce the risk of exploitation and violence against women migrant workers.
