Philosophical study of social justice from Plato's thought Throughout the history of philosophy, the topic of justice has been a very important topic. Theoretical thinkers such as utilitarianism, intuitionism, eudaimonism, perfectionism, liberalism, communitarianism, and socialism have discussed this topic. The core of political research from the time of Plato to the present is justice. Questions of fairness cannot be determined by the standards used to determine whether something is fair. Different versions of answers regarding the meaning of justice are often considered unsatisfactory, so they cannot be separated from the debate which ultimately constructs the meaning of justice itself, even into a relative formulation. This problem ultimately encouraged many groups to take an alternative path by returning the meaning of justice to those who set the laws and regulations and to judges who will develop their own considerations. This article will discuss the concept of justice from the perspective of Pre-Christian philosophers, especially Plato. Philosophically, there are two ways of expressing justice: First, the view that justice means harmony between the implementation of rights and the implementation of obligations according to the "balance of law" clause, namely "the scope of rights and obligations". The view of legal experts basically holds that justice is harmony between legal certainty and legal comparability. There are even those who argue that law must be combined with justice for it to truly have legal meaning. This is related to the answer that law is part of human efforts to create ethical coexistence in the world. Only through a just legal system can society live peacefully towards happiness, because the essence of law is to create fair rules in society.                                                                                                                     

Land is very important for the life and economy of every human being. In Indonesia, the relaxation of land certification poses legal threats to owners. The PTSL program aims to provide legal clarity through certification, increase protection and facilitate easier access to services and land rights. However, implementation faces challenges, such as slow and complicated procedures, as seen in Gilang Village, Sidoarjo. This research aims to identify and analyze the implementation of PTSL policies in Gilang Village using a qualitative case study approach and purposive sampling. The results show that despite challenges in consistent communication and distribution of information, the PTSL program was overall successful. However, there are a few obstacles due to the use of existing resources and the high commitment of implementers. Improving communication and information management can increase program effectiveness in the future. The PTSL program has been implemented well in accordance with Minister of Agrarian Regulation Number 12 of 2017, with achievements in resources, disposition and bureaucratic structure. However, the main obstacle is communication, miscommunication between program implementers and the Gilang Village community causes confusion and dissatisfaction. The lack of effective communication media during the socialization process also hampers the process.

Justice is often debated in a legal context, with an emphasis on integrity, procedural fairness and balance of power. This article explains how judges deal with the pressure to ensure justice while overcoming various challenges, including bias, politicization, and external pressure. The role of judges' ethics and social responsibility in maintaining judicial integrity and independence is also discussed. Through this review, it is hoped to gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges faced by judges in ensuring justice in the justice system. The role of judges is not only as enforcers of the law but also as guardians of justice. The challenges judges face include political pressure, difficult decisions, and a changing society.

However, challenges such as corruption, bias and limited resources often stand in the way of achieving these goals. In addition, ethics play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the justice system, including principles such as independence, objectivity and transparency.  

Human rights violations are actions that violate humanitarian principles, which are principally carried out by individuals, state institutions, or other institutions, which aim to deprive other individuals of their human rights without juridical pretexts and convincing rational evidence. Human rights violations that currently occur often have a high complexity. One of them is the human rights violations that occurred in the tragedy at Kanjuruhan Stadium, Malang on October 1, 2022. The impacts of the tragedy experienced by victims and their families include physical, emotional and financial. After the Kanjuruhan incident, it is necessary to limit the rights and responsibilities between parties who have a role in organizing football matches. So, for this reason, structured steps are needed to restore the rights of victims that should be given. The method used in this research is the normative juridical method by making secondary data as research material obtained from books, similar works and research, as well as draft laws. This research highlights the importance of implementing compensation and restitution mechanisms as an effort to restore victims' rights, in accordance with applicable law. Through in-depth analysis of relevant legal regulations and related cases, this research provides insight into the efforts that have been made by the government and related institutions in providing compensation and restitution to victims.

Restitution for child victims of serious criminal abuse is a human right guaranteed under the legislation. Indonesia Child Protection Law explicitly contains provisions regarding special protection for children who are victims of physical violence, established through several measures such as treatment and rehabilitation, psychosocial assistance as well as providing protection and assistance in every judicial process. In line with that, the victimology perspective developed in Indonesia's criminal law system also recognizes the vulnerable position of victims in the law enforcement process, thus requiring further action in the form of restitution for criminal victimization. However, in its implementation, inconsistencies in law application by law enforcers and societal factors often hinder the fulfillment of holistic restitution, which creates injustice for child victims whose rights are only partially fulfilled. Therefore, this research aims to examine the fulfillment of restitution for child victims of serious criminal abuse through the victimology perspective. This study employs a normative juridical methodology with a statutory approach and study case on South Jakarta District Court Decision number 297/Pid.B/2023/PN Jkt.Sel.. The data used in this study is secondary data and analyzed descriptively to provide a concise overview following the progressivity of children's rights protection who are victims of serious criminal abuse under Indonesian law. The findings of this study convey that the implementation of legal protection for child victims of serious criminal offense in South Jakarta District Court Decision number 297/Pid.B/2023/PN Jkt.Sel. by law enforcers has not been fully maximized and complies with the related laws as the main legal basis for the fulfillment of the right to restitution.

Challenges to the rights possessed by humans can cover various complex and various kinds, such as social, political, and economic. There are challenges such as freedom of opinion and the existence of the press, where even though freedom of the press has been recognized, there is still pressure and intimidation against journalism. Cases such as arrests and violence against journalists who cover this sensitive issue often occur. There are land conflicts between indigenous communities and large companies (especially in the plantation and mining sectors), which can often result in forced evictions. These laws can often be used to further suppress freedom of religion and speech, and have led to many people being imprisoned on charges of blasphemy. Many workers in the informal and formal sectors experience poor working conditions, including low wages, long hours, and a lack of occupational health and safety protection.

Understanding the concept of Justification by Faith is crucial for Christians, as it enables them to gauge their comprehension and application of this doctrine in their lives. Many Christians have yet to fully grasp this foundational aspect of their faith. This study aims to elucidate the true significance of Justification by Faith by comparing the perspectives of Paul and James, which at first glance, seem contradictory. This research employs a literature review approach, involving the identification, classification, and analysis of relevant literature on the topic of Justification by Faith according to Paul, James, and Calvin. The study involves a hermeneutical analysis of biblical texts, a comparison of theological perspectives, and a systematic organization of findings. Paul asserts that justification occurs through faith, independent of works, as an act of God's grace (Romans 3:28, 4:5). The law reveals human sinfulness and the need for divine justification through faith in Christ. James emphasizes that genuine faith is demonstrated through works (James 2:24). He argues that faith without works is dead and insists on the necessity of works as evidence of true faith. Calvin integrates both perspectives, emphasizing that justification by faith is inseparable from the process of regeneration by the Holy Spirit. He views faith as a gift from God that leads to good works, the fruit of genuine faith. Justification by Faith is an act of God that can only be achieved through His grace and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ (Romans 4:5; 5:6). Faith is rooted in the truth of God's revelation in Christ, culminating in belief in His crucifixion and resurrection. Both Paul and James agree that faith and works are essential in a genuine response to God, with good works being the inevitable result of true faith. This study underscores the interconnectedness of faith and works, aligning with Martin Luther's assertion that good works are the fruit of righteousness. The comprehensive understanding of Justification by Faith involves recognizing it as a divine act that provides hope for salvation through faith, a gift from God facilitated by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 2:8; Galatians 5:22).

Global warming occurs due to changes in weather patterns, rising sea levels, and also very extreme weather phenomena. These human rights are in the form of rights to life and health, where climate change can directly threaten the rights to life and health of humans. An increase in global temperatures can also cause the frequency and intensity of heat waves to increase, which can cause deaths and heat-related illnesses. In addition, changes in rainfall patterns can cause extreme flooding and drought, resulting in physical damage, disease, and loss of life. Water-borne and vector-borne diseases, such as malaria and dengue, are also expected to increase with climate change. Not only that right but there is also the right to food, where if there is a change in the climate, this can affect global food security. Changing weather patterns, such as increased frequency and intensity of droughts, floods, and storms, can damage agricultural land and reduce crop yields. This threatens the right to food, especially for communities that depend on subsistence agriculture. Additionally, rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns can affect crop productivity and livestock health, impacting food supply and food prices.

Human rights in the Indonesian political context show a discrepancy between the principles set out in the constitution and their implementation on the ground. While the Indonesian constitution guarantees fundamental rights, various institutional, political and cultural barriers often prevent their effective implementation. This research investigates the dynamics of human rights in the Indonesian political system, highlighting the gap between constitutional norms and their application in practice. Through the analysis of various legal documents and human rights case studies, this article identifies key challenges in the enforcement of human rights in Indonesia. The main results show that while Indonesia's constitution clearly guarantees a range of human rights, there are institutional, political and cultural barriers that hinder the implementation of these rights. The article provides policy recommendations to strengthen human rights protection, including legal reform and capacity building of law enforcement agencies. It discusses the protection of human rights in the Indonesian constitution, its implementation in political practice, as well as cases of violations that have occurred. The Indonesian Constitution guarantees human rights through various provisions listed in the 1945 Constitution, including civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights.

Human Rights are standards to recognise and protect the dignity of all people. Human Rights regulate the coexistence of individuals and each other in society, their relationship with the state, and the obligations of the state towards individuals. In this context, the protection of human rights for indigenous Papuans is very important. The involvement of natural resource management in the protection of human rights is very significant, because natural resource management can have a direct impact on the welfare of indigenous peoples.
