Copyright is an exclusive right granted to creators to protect their intellectual works. The importance of copyright protection has increased with advances in digital technology and the widespread use of social media as a means of content distribution. Digital platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and various other streaming services facilitate the distribution of digital works, but also give rise to problems such as piracy and the use of works without the permission of the copyright owner. This digital piracy can result in economic and moral losses for creators. This study aims to analyze the application of copyright in the context of social media and examine the legal regulations governing copyright protection to address digital piracy in Indonesia. The method used in this study is a normative legal research method with a statutory and conceptual approach. The results show that legal protection for digital works is regulated by Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright and is strengthened by Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions. These two regulations provide a legal basis for protecting the moral and economic rights of creators and authorize the government to block access to content that infringes copyright. These regulations are expected to reduce digital piracy and create a digital ecosystem that respects intellectual property rights.

This is a worrying issue in the digital age and has been shown to significantly contribute to low student academic achievement. This research aims to examine the role of Guidance and Counseling (BK) services in addressing social media addiction in students with low academic achievement. The method used in this research is library research with a qualitative approach through content analysis and literature synthesis techniques sourced from various scientific references published between 2020 and 2025. The results show that students addicted to social media have low self-control, resulting in academic procrastination and a consistent decline in learning achievement. GC services have proven to play a strategic role through preventive, curative, and developmental functions implemented through classical guidance, individual counseling, and group counseling. The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach and self-management technique have proven most effective in helping students reduce social media addiction and improve learning discipline. However, the effectiveness of GC services is still constrained by the non-ideal ratio of counseling teachers, the lack of digital literacy-based GC programs, and students' negative stigma toward counseling services. This study recommends developing GC programs specifically designed to address digital addiction by involving the entire school ecosystem consistently.

Highland tourism villages face increasing competition, environmental vulnerability, and market uncertainty, requiring adaptive and innovation-driven strategies. Digital transformation is considered a strategic instrument to enhance destination competitiveness, expand market access, and improve institutional resilience. This research employs a quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) to examine the relationships among digital transformation, competitive advantage, and tourism village resilience. The study was conducted in selected highland tourism villages in Central Java, including [insert village names if needed]. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to tourism village managers, local stakeholders, and community representatives. The findings indicate that digital transformation has a significant positive effect on competitive advantage and resilience. Furthermore, competitive advantage partially mediates the relationship between digital transformation and tourism village resilience. These results suggest that digital adoption, digital marketing integration, and digital governance practices are critical in strengthening sustainable tourism development in highland areas. The study contributes to the literature on digital tourism transformation and provides managerial implications for policymakers and tourism village managers in developing adaptive and resilient tourism ecosystems.

The increasing demands of global trade, the risk of transboundary diseases, and the stringency of sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) standards require a more integrated, transparent, and risk-based national quarantine system. The partial readiness of digital systems and traceability mechanisms has the potential to weaken Indonesia’s food security and export competitiveness toward the vision of Golden Indonesia 2045. This study aims to analyze the strategic role of the quarantine system in national development, identify institutional and technical root problems, and formulate the most concrete and feasible policy alternatives. The method used is policy analysis with a multi-criteria analysis (MCA) approach to compare several solution alternatives based on effectiveness, efficiency, technical aspects, and political feasibility. The results indicate that the digital transformation of the national quarantine system based on traceability and risk-based intelligence is the most superior policy option, as it can simultaneously address data fragmentation, improve service efficiency, and strengthen biosecurity surveillance. This study recommends the development of a Quarantine Super App, full implementation of e-certification, integration with the National Logistics Ecosystem and Customs, and the strengthening of an artificial intelligence-based risk profiling system. Gradual implementation accompanied by performance indicator-based evaluation is key to the success of the policy in enhancing national food security and export competitiveness.

Social media has brought significant changes in the way humans interact, construct meaning, and shape social identities. In Indonesia, TikTok is the most widely accessed social media platform, reaching 32% of users. TikTok is not only a medium of entertainment but also a space for the production and reproduction of values, tastes, and social standards. The TikTok algorithm presents personalized content according to user preferences, creating a continuous flow of information that is visually and repetitively consumed. From an anthropological perspective, this article aims to analyze how algorithms influence the formation of digital identity and generate new status symbols in virtual spaces. This research uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods and literature studies on TikTok usage practices. The results of the study show that indicators of popularity such as the number of views, followers, likes, and interaction rates become new forms of status symbols that represent users’ social influence in the digital world. From an anthropological perspective, TikTok can be understood as a new cultural space where algorithms act as structural agents that influence social practices, identity production, and symbolic hierarchies within digital society. This study emphasizes that algorithms function not only as technical technologies but also as cultural forces that shape how individuals understand themselves and their social positions within the social media ecosystem.

This study analyzes the gap between legal certainty and justice in patent protection in Indonesia through a case study of the transfer of patent rights for the Spider Nest Construction. The problem formulation includes two things. First, what is the form of distortion of legal certainty in the transfer of patent rights. Second, how is the violation of the inventor's moral and economic rights and the institutional factors that cause it. The method used is normative juridical with a statutory, case, conceptual, and comparative approach. The results of the study indicate that the distortion of legal certainty occurs because the registration of the transfer of rights only uses a Power of Attorney without an authentic deed, which violates Article 11 of the Patent Law. In addition, the unilateral action of the Directorate General of Intellectual Property to freeze and revoke the freezing of patents without a court decision violates Article 132 of the Patent Law. Violation of moral rights is manifested in the form of false attribution in the JALLA patent. Economic rights are ignored through embezzlement of royalties. The peak of injustice is the accusation of plagiarism against the original inventor for his own development invention. Inhibiting factors include institutional weaknesses within the Directorate General of Intellectual Property, excessive judicial intervention, low human resource capacity, regulatory disharmony, and an unsupportive legal culture. Strengthening strategies include institutional reform, revision of the Patent Law, ratification of international conventions, digitalization, international certification, and the establishment of a specialized intellectual property court. In conclusion, without strengthening integrated intellectual property legal policy, the gap between procedural legal certainty and substantive justice will continue to weaken the national innovation ecosystem.

The rapid adoption of digital contracts in Indonesia demands a reliable document authentication system, one of which is through electronic stamps (e-meterai). However, the current e-meterai verification system remains centralized and exclusively managed by Perum Peruri, making it vulnerable to single point of failure risks and data manipulation. Blokchain technology, with its characteristics of decentralization, transparency, and data immutability, offers a technical solution that could potentially strengthen the integrity of this verification system. This article aims to examine the legal position of blokchain technology within Indonesia's existing e-meterai regulatory framework and to analyze the urgency of establishing specific regulations governing its use. The research employs a normative juridical method through statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings reveal that blokchain currently occupies a legal grey area: technically compatible with the validity requirements of agreements under Article 1320 of the Civil Code and meeting the criteria for Electronic Information under Article 5 of the ITE Law, yet formally lacking explicit recognition due to its conflict with Perum Peruri's monopolistic authority established under Law Number 10 of 2020 on Stamp Duty. Four normative gaps are identified, encompassing the absence of evidentiary guarantees for blokchain-verified documents, the lack of mandatory standards for Electronic Certification Providers, the ambiguity in civil liability allocation for automated system failures, and the conflict between blokchain's immutability and the right to erasure under the Personal Data Protection Law. Comprehensive specific regulations constitute an urgent normative necessity to ensure legal certainty for Indonesia's digital contract ecosystem.

This research investigates integration models combining navigation and port information systems through blockchain technology to enhance ship operational reliability, addressing critical challenges in data integrity, information sharing, and system coordination affecting maritime operations. Current maritime information systems operate in silos with limited interoperability, creating information asymmetries, coordination inefficiencies, and data integrity concerns that compromise operational decision-making and safety management. Through qualitative analysis involving ship operators, port authorities, navigation system providers, blockchain specialists, and maritime regulators, this study examines how distributed ledger technology can enable secure, transparent, and tamper-proof information integration across navigation and port systems. Results demonstrate that blockchain-based integration can improve data integrity assurance by 70-90%, reduce coordination time by 40-60%, enhance operational transparency by 55-75%, and decrease documentation errors by 50-70% through immutable records, smart contracts, and decentralized consensus mechanisms. Key implementation challenges include technical complexity, computational requirements, regulatory uncertainty, organizational adoption resistance, and scalability limitations. Findings reveal that blockchain represents transformative enabling technology for maritime digital ecosystems requiring trusted information exchange among multiple stakeholders without centralized intermediaries. This research contributes to maritime information systems literature by providing practical frameworks for blockchain implementation supporting operational reliability enhancement.

Indonesia represents one of the world's most complex and dynamic linguistic ecosystems, harboring over 700 regional languages alongside the national language (Bahasa Indonesia) and Indonesian Sign Language (BISINDO). This synthesis study provides comprehensive analysis of the Indonesian linguistic landscape, integrating findings from five complementary large-scale investigations conducted 2020–2024: code-switching patterns in digital communication; typological uniqueness of Indonesia's tenseless temporal system; linguistic complexity of BISINDO and barriers to deaf inclusion; sociolinguistic stratification through first-person pronoun variation; and critical endangerment of regional languages. The synthesis employed integrative methodology encompassing 3,550 total participants, 20,000+ linguistic tokens, 18 months of ethnographic fieldwork, and analysis of 150 languages and 25 revitalization programs. Synthesis reveals five interconnected dynamics: (1) centripetal standardization through education, urbanization, and media; (2) centrifugal diversification through identity construction and social stratification; (3) typological persistence maintaining Indonesian distinctiveness despite contact; (4) parallel endangerment affecting regional languages and BISINDO; and (5) ideology-driven change linking language choice to modernity and prestige. These dynamics produce dynamic tension between homogenization and diversification. Indonesia's linguistic future depends on whether policies can balance national unity through Indonesian and linguistic diversity through regional language and BISINDO protection. 

This research aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the complex dynamics termed the "Digital Bureaucracy Paradox," a phenomenon that emerged significantly following the implementation of the Work From Anywhere (WFA) policy within the Regional Secretariat of Sorong City. The primary focus this study lies in the strategic dilemma faced by visionary leadership in balancing modern flexible work patterns with the obligation to enforce Civil Servant (ASN) discipline, which has historically been conventional and rigid. Amidst massive digital transformation, local-level bureaucracy is forced to adapt to work models requiring high agility, while simultaneously remaining bound by formalistic disciplinary regulatory standards. Quantitative findings indicate that although digital platforms have been effective as instruments for work instructions, the effectiveness visual supervision remains irreplaceable in maintaining the integrity of working hours, particularly regarding low scores in separating personal and professional matters during WFA. Conversely, submissions the E-Kinerja (E-Performance) system show very high level of administrative compliance, yet do not fully guarantee the quality of substantive outputs. Statistical analysis confirms that adaptive digital leadership has decisive influence on the successful implementation of the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE). These findings offer  theoretical contribution to the study of bureaucratic behaviour within digital ecosystems and provide practical recommendations for redefining the ASN discipline from formalistic patterns toward a result-based substantive discipline. The synergy between visionary leadership and the strengthening of bottom-up accountability mechanisms through public participation is expected to realise a governance framework that is not only technologically modern but also functionally accountable in the post-pandemic era.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the synergy of humanistic and transformational leadership in building adaptability and digital competence of civil servants in the era of digital transformation. The research uses a narrative literature review approach by analyzing various literature from leading academic databases. The findings indicate that humanistic leadership creates a psychological foundation through empathy, respect for individual dignity, and psychological safety that facilitates civil servants to adapt to change without fear of failure. Meanwhile, transformational leadership acts as a catalyst by providing inspirational vision, intellectual stimulation, and motivation to master digital competencies. The synergy of these two leadership styles creates a holistic development ecosystem: humanistic leadership provides psychological safety to take learning risks, while transformational leadership provides energy and direction for continuous innovation. The theoretical implications of this research enrich the treasury of leadership theory in the context of public bureaucracy by identifying the complementary mechanisms of both leadership styles. Practical implications provide guidance for agency leaders to integrate humanistic values and transformational approaches in HR development programs to prepare civil servants who are resilient, adaptive, and digitally competent in facing the challenges of technological disruption and increasingly complex public service demands in the Society 5.0 era.

This study aims to analyze the impact of immersive commerce and augmented reality (AR) on consumer trust in e-commerce transactions using secondary industry data from the BrandXR 2025 Research on Augmented Reality in Retail & E-Commerce. Quantitative data was analyzed descriptively to evaluate the adoption rate of immersive technologies (immersive commerce and AR) and their relationship with consumer trust perceptions. The results show that immersive commerce, characterized by interactive and realistic user experiences, has a positive impact on consumer trust. Similarly, AR which offers realistic product visualization, has a significant impact on strengthening consumer trust in purchasing decisions. Simultaneously, the integration of immersive commerce and AR enhance the digital shopping experience, which can reduce risk perception and increase trust in online transactions. These findings empirically contribute to the literature on digital consumer behavior and e-commerce strategies, and suggest that businesses adopt immersive technologies to increase consumer trust and engagement in the online commerce ecosystem.

This study aims to examine the development of Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia from the classical to the modern era, as well as the factors influencing their transformation and strategies for strengthening them to remain relevant to contemporary needs without abandoning Islamic values. The research method used is a literature review (library research) by analyzing books, scientific journals, and official documents related to Islamic education, both nationally and internationally, published within the last five years. The findings indicate that Islamic education evolved from informal learning through majelis taklim, surau, and langgar, to the establishment of pesantren, madrasahs, and modern Islamic higher education institutions that integrate religious and general knowledge. The transformation of these institutions is influenced by local cultural factors, international scholarly networks, political pressures and colonialism, reformist figures, globalization, economic demands, social mobility, and national education policies. In the era of globalization and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Islamic educational institutions face challenges such as technological access disparities, limited teacher competence in digital pedagogy, curriculum integration, and the risk of educational commodification. Strengthening strategies include developing integrative curricula, professionalizing teachers, utilizing digital technology, promoting media literacy based on Islamic values, developing entrepreneurship, revitalizing traditional knowledge, and enhancing alumni networks and visionary leadership. This study emphasizes that the synergy among pesantren, madrasahs, and Islamic higher education institutions forms a national Islamic education ecosystem that is adaptive, rooted in spiritual values, and capable of producing Muslim generations who are morally upright, knowledgeable, and globally competitive.

The maritime education sector faces complex challenges in preparing competent seafarers amid the rapid advancement of digital technology. This study investigates the effect of artificial intelligence-based simulations and AI-based competency assessments on competency achievement levels among nautical cadets at Indonesian maritime training institutions. The research design employed a convergent parallel mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative and qualitative methods to gain a comprehensive understanding. Quantitative data were collected from 150 cadets using a validated questionnaire. In comparison, qualitative data were obtained through in-depth semi-structured interviews with fifteen instructors and ten cadets. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the research model significantly predicted cadet competency achievement. The findings indicate that AI-based assessments exert a stronger influence than AI simulations in improving competency. The qualitative exploration highlighted adaptive feedback mechanisms and personalized learning pathways as critical success factors in implementing learning technologies. This study provides empirical evidence for maritime institutions to prioritize strategic investments in AI-based assessment systems while maintaining a human-centered pedagogy. The research contribution lies in integrating fourth industrial revolution technologies into the training, certification, and watchkeeping standards compliance framework for seafarers, thereby strengthening Indonesia's maritime education ecosystem and aligning it with international standards.

Mental toughness is a critical factor for Pencak Silat athletes, particularly when coping with competitive failure or sports-related injuries. Injuries sustained in Pencak Silat competitions often involve psychological consequences, including trauma, fear, anxiety, and disturbances in self-identity. To address these challenges, the proposed chatbot functions as a screen-integrated psychosocial support system for athletes. This research used an experimental method combined with Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques was employed to construct a digital twin chatbot capable of simulating athlete-centered conversations. The Pencak Silat Athlete Chatbot is designed to assist athletes by providing responsive support when they experience defeat or performance setbacks during competitions. The research findings indicate that, although the chatbot is functional, its conversational responses remain relatively rigid, access times are prolonged, and further testing with Pencak Silat athletes in controlled settings is required. Overall, the development of the Pencak Silat Athlete Digital Twin Chatbot represents an ongoing effort to advance digital innovation and strengthen the ecosystem of sports achivements development in Indonesia.

Character education faces significant challenges due to digital disruption and globalization that trigger moral degradation in adolescents. In Purwakarta Regency, the "7 Poe Atikan" policy through Regent Regulation No. 69 of 2015 was implemented as a transformative solution based on local wisdom. This study aims to analyze the implementation mechanism, the character values ​​formed, and the supporting and inhibiting factors of the "7 Poe Atikan" program for students of SMPN 1 Maniis. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive literature method. Data are sourced from official documents, educational reports, and related scientific articles over the past seven years. The analysis shows that the implementation of "7 Poe Atikan" in Maniis District effectively internalizes the values ​​of nationalism and love of culture through concrete practices such as the use of Basa Indung (mother language) and traditional clothing. However, significant challenges were found in the Betah di Imah aspect which indicates the still weak synergy between schools and parents. The implementation of "7 Poe Atikan" at SMPN 1 Maniis has successfully created an educational ecosystem that adapts to local wisdom, although strengthening collaboration with the family environment remains a priority for the sustainability of students' holistic character.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in Indonesia's economy with a contribution of more than 60 percent to the Gross Domestic Product and the absorption of 97 percent of the national workforce, but their participation in international trade is still low with only 14 percent involved in export activities. This research aims to analyze the challenges and opportunities faced by MSMEs in accessing the global market and identify adaptation strategies developed by entrepreneurs. A qualitative method with a phenomenological approach was applied through in-depth interviews with 18 export-oriented MSME owners and managers in East Java who were selected by purposive sampling. Thematic analysis using ATLAS.ti revealed seven main challenges including limited access to capital, complexity of export regulations, constraints on production capacity and quality consistency, language and cross-cultural communication barriers, lack of international market information, logistics infrastructure problems, and intensive competition. On the other hand, four strategic opportunities were identified, namely increasing demand for sustainable authentic products, accelerating digitalization and e-commerce, utilizing free trade agreements, and ethical consumerism trends. MSMEs develop effective adaptation strategies in the form of strategic collaboration, product differentiation with  premium positioning, the use of digital technology, and a focus on  specific market niches. The research emphasizes that the successful internationalization of MSMEs requires a holistic approach integrating internal capacity building with the support of a conducive external ecosystem.

The growth of the digital economy in Indonesia has positioned Foreign Venture Capital Companies (FVCCs) as a fundamental pillar within the startup financing ecosystem. However, the legal landscape has undergone a significant transformation with the enactment of Law Number 4 of 2023 on the Development and Strengthening of the Financial Sector (P2SK Law). This regulation mandates that all financial services business actors, including foreign entities, obtain business licenses from the Financial Services Authority (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan/OJK). This study aims to analyze the legal implications of this licensing requirement on business certainty for foreign investors and to examine the normative inconsistencies between the Investment Law and the P2SK Law. This research employs a normative juridical method with a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The findings reveal the existence of normative ambiguity (vagueness of norms) concerning the operational status of FVCCs utilizing offshore structures during the regulatory transition period, which is set to expire in January 2026. Such legal uncertainty has the potential to hinder the inflow of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) if not promptly addressed through adaptive implementing regulations, such as the optimization of regulations governing Foreign Representative Offices. On the other hand, the licensing obligation enhances legal certainty by providing preventive legal protection for Business Partner Companies through contract standardization and integrated supervision. In conclusion, this study recommends cross-sectoral regulatory harmonization and the issuance of clear technical guidelines to ensure a balanced approach between prudential supervision and investment facilitation.

This research aims to design and build a client service website and pre-registration of cases at the KOFIPINDO Law Office as a solution to administrative problems that are still carried out manually. The system is developed using the waterfall method through the stages of needs analysis, system design, coding, testing, and maintenance. The website that was built provides features for account registration, filling in case data, uploading supporting documents, and verification by the admin so that the file is ready to be submitted to the e-Court system. In addition, the system is equipped with a case status monitoring dashboard, automatic notifications to clients, and submission history that can be accessed at any time. The results of the study show that this platform is able to improve service efficiency, minimize administrative errors, and speed up the pre-registration process of cases. The implementation of this system also helps to increase the transparency of communication between law firms and clients. Furthermore, the use of this website has the potential to reduce the administrative workload of staff, optimize the management of case data, and improve the accuracy of legal documentation. The system is also designed with the client's data security and privacy aspects in mind in accordance with the principles of digital information protection. Thus, this system can be an effective, structured, and integrated digital means to support the modernization of legal services at KOFIPINDO, improve service professionalism, and strengthen the competitiveness of law offices in the digital ecosystem.

This study examines the integration of maqasid al-shariah and digital governance in halal value chains using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) guided by the PRISMA 2020 framework. Articles indexed in Scopus from 2020–2025 were analyzed to identify theoretical patterns and research gaps. The findings indicate that existing studies remain fragmented, with maqasid primarily treated as a normative concept and digital governance addressed mainly from technological or compliance perspectives. This research proposes an integrative conceptual model linking maqasid al-shariah, digital governance, stakeholder engagement, institutional legitimacy, strategic resources, and sustainability outcomes. The synthesis demonstrates that maqasid can function as a strategic governance framework, while digital governance operationalizes Islamic values through transparent and measurable practices. The study contributes theoretically by repositioning maqasid as a strategic management lens and practically by offering guidance for value-based digital transformation in the halal ecosystem. Overall, maqasid-based digital governance emerges as a new paradigm for building ethical, resilient, and sustainable halal value chains.
