The development of the sharia economy in Indonesia demands the existence of a judicial institution capable of resolving disputes in accordance with Islamic legal principles. The Religious Court, through the amendment of Law Number 3 of 2006, has obtained the authority to handle cases in the field of sharia economics, including Islamic banking disputes. However, the implementation of this authority faces various challenges, both in terms of regulation, dualism of authority with general courts, and institutional readiness, such as human resources and infrastructure. This study employs a qualitative method with a normative juridical approach to analyze the legal basis, court practices, and institutional responses in the exercise of this authority. The results of the study indicate that the Religious Court holds great potential as a pillar for upholding sharia economic law but requires reinforcement in various aspects, including improving judges’ competencies, digitalizing the judicial system, and fostering inter-institutional synergy. Moreover, legal protection for justice seekers highly depends on the effectiveness and professionalism of the judicial institution. Therefore, a sustainable strategy is needed to build the institutional capacity of the Religious Court to respond to the dynamics of the sharia economy in a fair, accountable manner and in line with Islamic legal values in Indonesia.

This research analyzes the evolution of social response paradigms to disasters from reactive to proactive approaches through a comprehensive literature review. The research method employs a qualitative approach with literature study techniques to identify driving factors of paradigm change and evaluate its implementation. The results show that paradigm transformation was triggered by several key factors: major disaster experiences such as the 2004 Aceh Tsunami, development of legal and institutional frameworks (Law No. 24 of 2007 and the establishment of BNPB), increased public awareness, and advancements in science and technology. Although the proactive approach has proven effective in reducing disaster impacts, its implementation still faces challenges including gaps between knowledge and practice, lack of integration with development planning, approaches that remain top-down, limited technology adoption, and disparities in regional fiscal capacity. This research contributes to the formulation of more adaptive and sustainable disaster management strategies through recommendations for strengthening participatory approaches, mainstreaming disaster risk reduction in development planning, and developing sustainable funding models for disaster mitigation and preparedness programs.

One of the local food potentials in the Woitombo Village area, Mowewe District, East Kolaka Regency is the sago plant. Opportunities for utilizing local sago food processing in this area are still lacking, while the potential for this processing can support food security and nutritious eating programs in the area. The lack of knowledge and skills of the local community is the cause of not utilizing the local food potential of sago. Based on this, the service team will provide training and assistance to women who are members of a Dasawisma group, with the aim of increasing women's capacity through processing local sago food in the area using the socialization, counseling and training stages in local sago food processing, which can support the sustainable development of sago plants in supporting food security and nutritious eating programs in the area. The result of this activity is that the women who took part in the activity gained knowledge and skills in processing local sago food, with a very enthusiastic attitude in the activity and at the end of the training activity were able to make and produce local sago food preparations, namely processing wet sago into sago flour and then processing the sago flour into sinonggi (a traditional specialty food) and sago plates (traditional cakes).

Industrialization plays a critical role in the process of economic development, particularly in shaping a stronger and more competitive economic structure. For Indonesia, an industrialization strategy is not merely a tool for boosting economic growth, but a key instrument for promoting long-term structural transformation. This article discusses how industrialization strategies should be designed holistically, taking into account not only the manufacturing sector but also the interconnections with agriculture and services. Within the national development framework, the state must take an active role by implementing fiscal policies, providing infrastructure support, and offering incentives for value-added industries. Lessons from newly industrialized countries show that the success of industrialization is highly dependent on consistent policy coordination, strong leadership, and robust institutional capacity. Furthermore, industrial strategies must be responsive to global challenges such as technological change, international competition, and regional disparities. Therefore, industrial development planning in Indonesia should be oriented towards achieving economic efficiency, strengthening domestic production capabilities, generating broad employment opportunities, and ensuring equitable distribution of development benefits. This paper aims to provide a conceptual foundation for formulating a national industrialization strategy that is not only responsive to global trends but also capable of addressing domestic needs in an inclusive and sustainable manner.

This study aims to comprehensively examine the role of women in agricultural economic development through three main focuses: women's real contribution in agricultural economic activities, structural and socio-cultural barriers that limit their participation, and empowerment strategies to realize a more inclusive agricultural economy. The background of this research stems from the reality that although women play a significant role in various aspects of agricultural production and resource management, recognition of their contribution is still structurally and culturally limited. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with a library research approach, which utilizes primary sources such as official government documents and reports of international institutions, as well as secondary sources in the form of relevant scientific literature. Data were collected through a systematic search of digital databases, then analyzed using content analysis techniques to identify key themes related to the roles, barriers and strategies for empowering women in the agricultural economy. The results show that women have concrete contributions in production activities, processing of agricultural products, and financial management of farm-based households. However, their participation is still hampered by patriarchal structures, limited access to resources (such as land, capital, and training), and social norms that tend to marginalize women's role in decision-making. Effective empowerment strategies include strengthening women's capacity through education and skills training, forming women's farmer groups, and advocating for policies that support gender equality in agricultural development. In conclusion, the role of women in the agricultural economy is not only relevant but also crucial in promoting food security and sustainable rural development. Therefore, the integration of gender perspectives in agricultural policy is an urgency that cannot be ignored.

The rapid development of information technology has significantly changed cybercrime, especially electronic document forgery. This re-search examines the utilization of digital forensics and information technology in proving the crime of electronic document forgery in In-donesia through a normative legal research approach. The research uses a statutory approach and a conceptual approach to analyze the ef-fectiveness of digital forensic methods in uncovering electronic crimes based on certain evaluation criteria including technical feasibility, legal acceptability, and procedural compliance with Indonesian law. The findings show that digital forensics has an important role in in-vestigating electronic document forgery, but faces complex implementation challenges. Key barriers include limited human resources, with only 147 certified digital forensics experts in Indonesia according to verified 2023 data from the Indonesian Digital Forensics Association (AFDI), and legal regulations that have not fully accommodated the evolving digital technology landscape. The research identifies signifi-cant technical barriers, such as the complexity of forensic technology, the volatility of digital evidence, and the rapid advancement of cyber-crime techniques. Through an examination of recent case studies including the Tokopedia data breach of 2023 and the Jakarta Administra-tive Court electronic document forgery case of 2022, this research demonstrates the practical application of digital forensics in Indonesian courts. The research proposes a balanced approach that fulfills both evidentiary and human rights protection requirements in digital inves-tigations. Strategic recommendations include strengthening the capacity of forensic laboratories, harmonizing legal regulations, and im-proving the competence of human resources in technology and law. This research contributes to the conceptual framework of cyber law enforcement by offering a comprehensive perspective on the evidentiary challenges of e-crime in the digital age.

The rapid development of information technology has brought various conveniences to human life, but it also brings new challenges in the form of cybercrime threats. One of these threats is cyberstalking, which is the act of stalking, harassment, or threats through digital media. Cyberstalking utilizes the anonymity of technology to violate the privacy, dignity, and psychological safety of the victim. In Indonesia, the regulation of cyberstalking is implicitly regulated through Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE Law) or in its latest amendment, namely in Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 1 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions and the Criminal Code (KUHP). However, these regulations have not been able to cover the multidimensional dimensions of the crime, such as non-verbal harassment or emotional threats through digital media. This article analyzes cyberstalking in the perspective of Indonesian criminal law by highlighting the existing legal vacuum and the importance of regulatory reform based on the principles of legality, legal certainty, and protection of individual rights. Recommendations include revising the ITE Law, strengthening the capacity of law enforcers, and increasing public awareness to deal holistically with the threat of cyberstalking. With these steps, it is hoped that legal protection for victims can be improved in line with technological developments.

The method used is a literature study with a qualitative descriptive approach that utilizes secondary data sources. Some areas such as Nusa Penida show restoration success thanks to collaboration between NGOs and local communities. SWOT analysis shows the potential for ecotourism development as an opportunity for coral reef sustainability, but the threat from climate change remains a concern. The results emphasize that cross-actor collaboration, active community participation, and the support of local values such as Tri Hata Karana can increase restoration effectiveness. The implications of this research point to the importance of community capacity building, collaborative policy support, and local wisdom-based approaches as the basis for inclusive and sustainable marine conservation strategies.  

Public service is an essential element that reflects the quality of governance in Indonesia, particularly in population administration, which includes the issuance of important documents such as ID cards (KTP), family cards (KK), birth certificates, and death certificates. Along with technological advancements, Indonesia launched the Digital Population Identity (IKD) application to improve efficiency and reduce reliance on physical documents. This study aims to evaluate the positive public’s response of the IKD application in Singosari District, Malang Regency, as well as to identify the challenges and factors influencing the implementation of this policy. The research method used is descriptive qualitative research with approaches such as interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings show that although the IKD application facilitates the administrative process, there are still challenges such as a lack of public’s response, limited mobile device availability, and technical issues with the application. Socialization through social media and the improvement of operator capacity are key supporting factors for the success of the implementation. This study contributes theoretically to the development of E-Governance concepts and practically highlights the importance of digital education for the public. It is suggested that enhanced socialization for groups less familiar with technology, improved supporting infrastructure, and training for service operators are necessary to ensure the success of the IKD application in population administration services in Singosari District.

This research examines tourist perceptions of the Sendangdalem rafting attraction in Kebumen Regency as a developing adventure tourism destination.

The results show that tourists positively perceive the varied and challenging river characteristics, although supporting facilities still need improvement. The experience value is formed through the integration of adventure, aesthetic, social, and educational values, with adventure value as the dominant dimension. Sustainability practices through local community involvement and conservation efforts are appreciated, but waste management and sanitation infrastructure still require improvement. The research implications emphasize the importance of infrastructure development with an environmentally friendly approach, capacity building for local guides, diversification of tourism products, and strengthening ecotourism narratives in marketing.

Fisheries extension services play a strategic role in strengthening the capacity of fish farmers and accelerating the development of sustainable aquaculture businesses. The effectiveness of extension activities is strongly influenced by how fish farmers perceive the roles performed by fisheries extension workers. This study aims to analyze the level of fish farmers’ perceptions of the role of fisheries extension workers in developing aquaculture businesses in Loa Kulu District, Kutai Kartanegara Regency. In addition, this research examines the characteristics of fish farmers and analyzes the relationship between internal and external factors and the level of perception toward extension roles. This study employed a descriptive and correlational research design using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. A total of 42 respondents were selected from 719 fish farmers using the Slovin formula with a 15% margin of error and proportionate stratified random sampling across 10 villages. Data were collected through structured questionnaires using a Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman's rank correlation analysis. The results indicate that the overall perception of fish farmers toward the roles of fisheries extension workers—namely as educators, facilitators, motivators, innovators, advocates, organizers, and evaluators—falls within the high category. Among these roles, the organizer and facilitator roles received the highest perception scores. Internal factors such as age, income, and land area showed significant correlations with certain extension roles, particularly the roles of educator, motivator, and evaluator. External factors, including interaction with extension workers, interaction with traders, availability of market information, and access to aquaculture science and technology, were also significantly correlated with perception levels. These findings suggest that strengthening both socio-economic conditions and access to information and technology can enhance positive perceptions of extension services, ultimately contributing to more effective aquaculture development programs. The study highlights the importance of optimizing extension performance to sustain fish farmers’ productivity and welfare improvement.
