This study evaluates the effectiveness of a hybrid citizen–AI legal monitoring system in enhancing urban environmental governance. The hybrid system integrates citizen-driven reporting platforms with AI-powered legal monitoring tools to address the challenges of weak public oversight in urban environmental management. By implementing the system in three metropolitan areas, the study explores how real-time data collection through citizen reports, combined with AI-driven analysis, can improve the accuracy, speed, and responsiveness of identifying environmental violations. The results showed a 45% improvement in oversight effectiveness, demonstrating the potential of hybrid systems to enhance monitoring capabilities beyond traditional methods. The AI system, capable of analyzing large datasets and providing timely insights, enabled quicker identification and categorization of violations such as pollution and waste management issues. The integration of citizen involvement through digital platforms allowed for more inclusive data collection, enhancing the quality and volume of information available for decision-making. This synergy between human participation and AI-driven analysis improved the speed of response to urban environmental challenges, making the system more adaptive and efficient. However, challenges such as data reliability and variable citizen participation rates were identified, suggesting the need for strategies to encourage consistent engagement and ensure the accuracy of reported data. The study concludes that hybrid citizen–AI systems can significantly improve urban governance by enhancing transparency, accountability, and responsiveness, offering a promising solution for cities seeking to address environmental issues more effectively.

This study examines the legal construction of the obligation to prepare  Academic Draft s in the process of forming regional regulations in Indonesia. Academic texts have a strategic role as a scientific and rational basis to ensure that the Regional Regulations produced are in accordance with the needs of the community, based on the principles of good regulation formation, and do not contradict higher legal norms. This study uses a normative juridical method with a statutory approach and conceptual analysis to identify the relevance, implementation, and challenges in the implementation of  Academic Draft  obligations. The results of the study show that the obligation to prepare  Academic Draft s has been regulated in laws and regulations, but its implementation is often faced with various obstacles, such as low technical understanding, limited budget allocation, and lack of expert involvement. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regulations and increase institutional capacity to ensure a more participatory, transparent, and accountable process for the formation of regional regulations. This research is expected to contribute to the development of policies that support the formation of quality and responsive regional regulations to the needs of the community.

Indonesia is a country with a vast diversity of cultures, religions, and ethnicities, which makes it one of the most pluralistic societies in the world. Multicultural education is present as a strategic approach to instill the values of tolerance, inclusion, and social harmony in the midst of this diversity. This article explores the nature of multicultural education in Indonesia from the perspective of Islamic education, which emphasizes respect for differences as part of the sunnatullah. Through literature research methods, this article discusses the concept, implementation, and challenges of multicultural education in the national education system. The results of the study show that multicultural education can be implemented through the development of diversity-based curriculum, teacher training to manage multicultural classrooms, and the creation of an inclusive educational environment. The Islamic perspective provides a strong philosophical and normative foundation to support multicultural education, such as the teachings of the Qur'an and Hadith that emphasize the importance of tolerance and intercultural dialogue. However, the implementation of multicultural education faces challenges, including cultural resistance from exclusivity groups and limited resources in schools, especially in remote areas. This article recommends strengthening the socialization of multicultural values, developing contextual teaching materials, increasing teacher training, and allocating adequate resources as solutions to overcome these challenges. By integrating Islamic values in multicultural education, Indonesia can build a generation that is tolerant, inclusive, and able to maintain social harmony in the midst of diversity. This article contributes to enriching the discourse of multicultural education and offers practical solutions for its implementation.

During the New Order government, Indonesia experienced a process of economic recovery after hyperinflation in the 1960s. A number of policies and programs during President Soeharto's leadership were actually successful in bringing Indonesia to a state of recovery, and they were even able to achieve various new achievements, which led to Indonesia being nicknamed the 'Asian Tiger'. However, as a result of the Asian Financial Crisis, Indonesia again fell into the abyss of an economic crisis (monetary crisis) in the 1990s. Finally, as a result of this incident, Indonesian reform occurred, marked by the fall of the authoritarian regime. From the ups and downs of the Indonesian economy during the New Order, this research reveals the influence of events and polemics that occurred at that time in relation to the current digital era. From what has been researched, it has been found that there are many positive influences, such as sustainability in managing the potential of economic resources better with the support of technology and also regarding the fact that there is a lack of digital infrastructure facilities which hinder the progress of economic productivity.

Drones are a new technology that can pose a threat to the sovereignty of many countries. Therefore, preventive efforts are necessary for a government to safeguard its interests. In this context, Indonesia needs to establish a legal framework from an international legal perspective, supported by national positive law, to mitigate the use of drones. The research, conducted through a normative-judicial analysis approach, concludes that a considerable number of legal instruments are aimed at protecting Indonesia from drone threats. However, Indonesia's military capability is not yet fully equipped to enforce the mandates of these laws. Consequently, the approach that can be taken is to prohibit drones altogether because they violate human rights and harm society.
