This study aims to analyze the relationship between environmental performance, environmental disclosure, and leverage on profitability in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2019-2023. Profitability is measured using Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). The data used in this study were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 22 with the Classical Assumption Test, Determination Coefficient Test, T test and F test to test the significance of the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable. The results of the T test show that environmental performance and leverage have a significant effect on profitability with a significance value <0.05, while environmental disclosure is .0.05 which means it is not significant. In addition, the F test shows that simultaneously, environmental performance, environmental disclosure, and leverage have a significant positive effect on profitability, with a significance value of 0.000 ˂ 0.05. Based on these results, the fourth hypothesis proposed in this study is accepted. This study provides implications that companies that pay attention to environmental performance and transparency in disclosing environmental information can increase their profitability, and proper leverage management also contributes to the company's financial sustainability. These findings are important for company management and investors to consider environmental sustainability aspects in strategic decision making.Keywords: Environmental Performance, Environmental Disclosure, Leverage, ProfitabilyThis study aims to analyze the relationship between environmental performance, environmental disclosure, and leverage on profitability in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2019-2023.

This study analyzes the legal responsibility of road organizers, legal protection for road users, and public participation in the maintenance of provincial roads in East Java. The background of this research is the significant road damage, covering 154 kilometers, which impacts the safety of road users and the smoothness of socio-economic activities. This research is based on Law Number 22 of 2009 on Traffic and Road Transportation (UU LLAJ) and Law Number 38 of 2004 on Roads, which regulate the obligation of road organizers to ensure safe and adequate infrastructure. The research method used is a juridical normative approach with an analysis of legislation, using primary and secondary legal materials, with data collected through library studies and deductive analysis. The results show that the government is legally obligated to repair damaged roads, place warning signs on roads that have not been repaired, and allocate funds to prevent traffic accidents. However, various challenges such as limited budgets and geographic conditions affect the implementation of these obligations. Additionally, the Citizen Lawsuit mechanism grants the public the right to sue negligent organizers. This study recommends strengthening road maintenance management based on risk, improving transparency and accountability, and empowering the public to ensure safe roads that support regional economic growth.

The proliferation of network information algorithms (NIAs) in contemporary society has sparked significant ethical concerns regarding their societal impact. This study investigates the influence of NIAs on social interactions, decision-making processes, and the perpetuation of structural biases through a multidisciplinary perspective (Ananny, 2023). The findings reveal that while NIAs enhance operational efficiency across various domains, they also introduce ethical challenges, including privacy infringements, systemic inequities, and algorithmic opacity, which threaten social justice. Employing Ananny’s (2023) conceptual framework—which categorizes NIAs into three dimensions: encounters, observation, and probability/temporality—this research deconstructs the operational mechanisms of these algorithms. The analysis demonstrates that NIAs not only replicate historical biases but also engender new forms of discrimination through ostensibly neutral predictive processes. For example, algorithm-driven recruitment systems may perpetuate gender disparities if their training data reflects prior discriminatory practices (Crawford, 2021). This study underscores the inextricable link between technological ethics and societal context, arguing that an overreliance on algorithmic systems risks undermining human autonomy (Zuboff, 2019). The originality of this research lies in its integration of computational ethics theory with empirical case studies, such as the deployment of NIAs in mass surveillance, where privacy is often compromised in pursuit of perceived security. To ensure academic rigor, the arguments are developed through a critical comparison with prior research (e.g., Mittelstadt et al., 2016), while avoiding redundancy in phrasing or structure. Scholars such as Floridi (2019) emphasize the necessity of algorithmic transparency in regulatory frameworks. However, critics like Noble (2018) argue that technical solutions alone are inadequate; structural reforms in data governance and corporate accountability are essential to mitigate the misuse of NIAs. In response, this study proposes an ethical framework that not only addresses technical risk mitigation but also incorporates civic participation in algorithmic decision-making processes. The ethical implications of NIAs necessitate a holistic approach that integrates principles of data justice, independent algorithmic auditing, and public digital literacy. Future research should explore inclusive models of algorithmic governance, particularly in developing nations where regulatory frameworks often lag behind technological advancements. This study concludes with a reflective inquiry: How can algorithmic accountability be ensured if developers lack transparency regarding data sources and programming logic? By addressing these questions, this research contributes to the ongoing discourse on the ethical governance of NIAs and their societal implications.

This article proposes to review the handling of corruption cases in terms of juridical and morality in Indonesia. This study is a normative legal study with descriptive analysis. This study uses a philosophical approach and a conceptual approach to determine the efforts made by the government to overcome corruption in Indonesia from the juridical and moral aspects of the Indonesian people based on the Pancasila Ideology. Efforts to eradicate corruption have not been able to be overcome optimally because they are spread sporadically in Indonesia. Obstacles are occurring structurally, culturally, instrumentally and management. Prevention and eradication of corruption must be emphasized as the moral responsibility of the Indonesian people. Because it will be one of the biggest threats to the existence of the Indonesian nation. Prevention of corruption must be carried out systematically by strengthening regulations and conducting international cooperation on the issue of corruption as a crime against Human Rights throughout the world, especially in Indonesia. That aspect of law enforcement in eradicating criminal acts of corruption requires the role of all parties involved in achieving the target of eradicating corruption that is rampant in Indonesia, there are four factors causing corruption; political and legal factors, historical factors, social factors and cultural factors, and economic factors. Concrete solutions in eradicating corruption are needed by Indonesia to redesign public services, strengthen transparency, supervision and sanctions against government activities related to the economy and human resources, increase the empowerment of supporting instruments in preventing corruption and to ensure that law enforcement is free from corruption. The strategy to eradicate corruption must be built with the will of all parties who want to eradicate corruption itself, by not giving the slightest tolerance in the act of corruption itself. In realizing an effort to eradicate corruption itself, it requires determination in meeting the prerequisites in terms of existence driven by political ability and will and a strong commitment from all parties, transparent and accountable in its implementation, available and balanced resources and capacity.

Indonesia's democracy, despite over two decades of progress since the fall of the New Order regime, has faced stagnation and democratic backsliding in recent years. Indicators from institutions such as the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), Freedom House, and Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) consistently highlight a decline in democratic quality. Contributing factors include identity politics, declining electoral integrity, political dynasties, and weak institutional capacities, described as "Low-Capacity Democracy." This study employs a qualitative approach to explore these challenges, including literature reviews, document analysis, and interviews. The findings reveal systemic issues at both institutional and societal levels, including weakened oversight bodies like the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), the dominance of executive power, and the rise of transactional politics and political dynasties. Digital challenges, such as disinformation and low digital literacy, also exacerbate these issues. This study recommends comprehensive reforms, such as strengthening independent institutions, enhancing transparency in public fund management, and improving political education to reduce transactional practices. Digital media regulations and technology-based electoral monitoring are also proposed to increase transparency. By addressing these issues, Indonesia can reinforce democratic resilience and foster an inclusive, accountable political system.

The management of regional finances aims to realize good governance that includes efficiency and transparency in meeting public needs. Efficiency and transparency in the decentralization of financial management policy by the Financial and Asset Management Agency (BKAD) of Kupang City are key factors in ensuring proper regional financial management. This study uses an empirical research method. After data collection, the researcher categorized the data based on the sources and analyzed them. The results of this study indicate that Efficiency has not been fully achieved due to mismatches in budget allocation. Meanwhile, transparency remains suboptimal because the existing system often experiences disruptions, limiting open access to information. The most dominant inhibiting factor affecting implementation effectiveness is human resources (HR). In addition, dependency on central government funding hampers flexibility and independence in regional financial management. The study suggests that BKAD should conduct technical competency training and development for staff, the Kupang City Government should increase local revenue (PAD), and the public should actively participate in budget public consultations.

This study examines the relationship between risk disclosure in annual reports and a company's default risk through a qualitative literature review approach. Clear and transparent risk disclosure in annual reports can reduce market uncertainty and enhance the perception of the company's financial stability. Through the analysis of various previous studies, it was found that comprehensive risk disclosure can lower borrowing costs, improve the company's credibility, and reduce the potential for financial failure. However, external factors such as market conditions and company policies still play an important role in influencing default risk. This research provides insights that although risk disclosure is effective in managing default risk, other factors must be considered in the analysis of predicting corporate financial failure.

Performance audit is a strategic instrument to strengthen transparency and accountability in the governance of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes). However, current practices of BUMDes auditing in Indonesia remain limited, fragmented, and often fail to uphold the principles of good governance. This study aims to identify and synthesize the implementation of performance audits in BUMDes across various regions through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of 28 articles published between 2013 and 2024. Sources were obtained from Scopus, DOAJ, Google Scholar, and Garuda, with thematic analysis applied. The study identifies five core issues: weak internal audit mechanisms, limited community participation, low utilization of information technology, cultural resistance, and the role of audits in improving village economic performance. The paper proposes a participatory audit model grounded in local familial values and supported by appropriate digital tools. This hybrid model is contextually suited to promote accountability in rural areas where institutional capacity is limited but social cohesion is strong. Theoretically, this research extends the relevance of stewardship theory and participatory governance to micro-level public sector entities. Policy implications highlight the need for adaptive, community-based audit mechanisms as a foundation for accountable rural development

This study aims to address the challenges and propose solutions for the Optimization of Blockchain-Based Cybersecurity Systems to Enhance Resilience Against Ransomware Attacks using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Blockchain is increasingly recognized as a transformative technology in cybersecurity due to its decentralized structure, transparency, and robustness in securing data. Despite these advantages, its widespread adoption is hindered by several challenges, including scalability, interoperability, high energy consumption, and limited access to representative ransomware datasets. This research highlights that integrating blockchain with advanced technologies such as data analytics, machine learning, and Explainable AI (XAI) can significantly enhance its effectiveness in combating ransomware.The findings reveal that Graph Convolutional Neural Networks (GCN) enable real-time detection of ransomware patterns in network traffic with an accuracy of up to 95%. Furthermore, Layer-2 solutions like the Lightning Network and sharding effectively alleviate the load on main blockchains, thereby increasing transaction throughput. Efficient consensus mechanisms, including Proof of Stake (PoS) and Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS), address energy consumption issues, making blockchain more adaptable to IoT and resource-constrained environments. These approaches have proven successful in enabling early detection, mitigation, and prevention of ransomware in IoT systems, cloud infrastructures, and smart grid networks. The implications of this study underscore the potential of blockchain as a critical component of proactive and adaptive cybersecurity systems. However, overcoming existing challenges requires further development of hybrid frameworks that integrate blockchain with data analytics and machine learning technologies. In addition, efforts should focus on standardizing global security protocols to enhance interoperability and creating robust, diverse ransomware datasets to support more accurate detection systems. Future research should also explore methods to minimize latency and improve blockchain efficiency in real-time cybersecurity applications.
