Legal problems in the land inheritance process often arise when inherited land has been registered in the name of another party. This study aims to examine the procedure for registering inherited land that has been issued a Certificate of Ownership (SHM) on behalf of other parties, as well as the form of legal protection for heirs. The research uses a normative juridical approach with a literature study method based on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The approaches used include legislative, conceptual, analytical, and case approaches. The analysis of legal materials is carried out through grammatical, systematic interpretation, analogous construction, and legal refinement construction. The results of the study show that the registration of inherited land must be carried out by the entitled heirs, especially for land that has not been certified. Registration is carried out sporadically as a form of registration for the first time. Legal protection for heirs is obtained preventively through the land registration process, and repressively in the event of arbitrary actions from other parties or government agencies. This research emphasizes the importance of legal certainty in the process of registering inherited land and the protection of the rights of heirs so that they are not harmed by the existence of other parties' certificates. This effort is part of the fair and transparent enforcement of agrarian law in Indonesia.

Effective waste management is a crucial challenge in maintaining environmental cleanliness and sustainability, especially in rural areas. This study aims to analyze the development of waste banks as a sustainable waste management solution in Jl Sosro GG 1001 Village. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with data collection techniques through field observations, in-depth interviews with residents and waste bank managers, and documentation of activities. The results of the study show that the existence of waste banks is able to increase public awareness in sorting and managing household waste. In addition, the social and economic impacts caused are quite significant, such as the formation of work groups, increased additional income, and strengthening the value of mutual cooperation. However, there are a number of challenges that hinder program optimization, including limited operational facilities, lack of continuity of community participation, and lack of technical support from local governments. To overcome this, a capacity building strategy is needed through continuous training, provision of supporting facilities, and cross-sector collaboration. The waste bank in Jl Sosro GG 1001 Village has great potential to be used as a model of sustainable community-based waste management, if supported by a joint commitment between residents, the government, and other stakeholders.

Citizenship rights and control of agrarian resources are two interrelated aspects in realizing social justice in Indonesia. In the context of an agrarian country experiencing pressures from economic globalization and resource liberalization, unequal access to land and other agrarian resources has become a pressing structural issue. This study aims to analyze how citizenship rights—as a form of state recognition of the existence and participation of citizens—correlate with the distribution and control of agrarian resources, particularly within the framework of social justice. The method used is a qualitative approach with literature studies and critical analysis of agrarian policies, citizenship regulations, and case studies of agrarian conflicts in several regions of Indonesia. The results show that the neglect of citizenship rights in agrarian policies contributes to the marginalization of vulnerable groups, such as indigenous communities and small farmers. Furthermore, land tenure policies that tend to favor corporations reinforce structural inequality. In conclusion, social justice in the control of agrarian resources requires the integration of substantive recognition of citizenship rights and agrarian reform oriented towards redistribution and participation. Policy reform that guarantees equal access to resources for all citizens is a primary prerequisite for inclusive and equitable development.    

This study was motivated by the existence of Longgo Mayuru Dance as a traditional art form of Gorontalo that still maintains its socio-cultural functions and relatively authentic movement structure amid cultural dynamics. This dance not only serves as an aesthetic expression but also as a cultural text that represents the history, customary system, and social identity of the Molingkapoto community. The purpose of this study is to analyse the movement structure of the Longgo Mayuru dance in relation to the historical context and social life of the Molingkapoto community. The study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive-interpretative design. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with dance performers and traditional leaders, as well as visual and written documentation. Data analysis was carried out by describing the dance movement structure at the level of motifs, phrases, and movement sentences, then interpreted through structural and sociocultural approaches. The results of the study show that the Longgo Mayuru Dance has its roots in traditional martial arts, which underwent historical transformation into a symbolic escort dance. It has a sacred socio-customary function and is composed of a systematic and symbolically meaningful movement structure. The implications of this research emphasise the importance of preserving the Longgo Mayuru dance, not only in terms of its movements, but also in terms of the socio-cultural context and historical values that underpin it as part of the cultural heritage of the Molingkapoto community.

Culture is an integral part of human life that cannot be separated from daily activities. As cultured beings, human beings have a responsibility to preserve cultural heritage so that it is still understood, lived and understood by the next generation. Baobolak village, which is located in Nagawutung District, Lembata Regency, is one of the areas with Lamaholot ethnic communities that are rich in various cultures, both in the form of object and intangible culture. However, with the Times and the flow of modernization, some local cultural values began to erode and potentially forgotten by the younger generation. In an effort to preserve the culture, an effective method is needed to maintain the existence and reintroduce local culture to the wider community. One of the methods considered relevant is through cultural documentation. This study aims to document the various forms of Culture found in the village of Baobolak, both in aspects of history, tradition, and social values of the local community. The methods used in this study include semi-structured interviews, field observations, and audiovisual documentation. The result of the research is a documentary film that comprehensively describes the cultural and historical life of Baobolak Village. To measure the success rate of the documentary product, researchers conducted a survey of the younger generation in the village. Based on the survey results, as many as 81% of 21 respondents stated that they understand and re-live the culture and history of Baobolak village after watching the documentary. Thus, cultural documentation through the medium of film has proven effective as a means of cultural preservation and education for the younger generation in the midst of increasingly rapid social change

This study examines the construction of reality and violations of broadcasting ethics in the Xpose Uncensored Trans7 program in 2025 which displays a negative image of pesantren and kiai. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with the framing analysis of Pan and Kosicki's model, this study reveals the existence of tendentious narrative and visual manipulation, thus giving the impression of harassment of religious symbols. The broadcasts are considered to violate the principles of balance and social responsibility as stipulated in the Broadcasting Code of Conduct and Broadcast Program Standards (P3SPS). The public reaction that emerged through the hashtag #BoikotTRANS7 reflects the increasing public awareness of the importance of ethics in broadcasting practices. This phenomenon shows that the media not only functions as a conveyor of information, but also has a moral responsibility in shaping public opinion in a fair and balanced manner. This study emphasizes the urgency of increasing media literacy and ethical sensitivity in the production of broadcast content, especially those related to the representation of religious groups. Thus, the results of this study are expected to be a reference for broadcasting institutions, media regulators, and the public in encouraging more ethical and responsible broadcasting practices in the digital era.

In an effort to understand the nature of existence and the purpose of education, humans continually ponder fundamental questions about reality, knowledge, and life's values. Philosophy appears as a light that illuminates the darkness of these questions, offering a profound and systematic framework for thought. However, from an Islamic perspective, this search for truth does not rely solely on reason but is harmoniously integrated with Divine revelation. Islamic ontology places God as the source of all reality, its epistemology unites reason and revelation in the pursuit of knowledge, while axiology guides all educational actions and goals toward the formation of pious and noble individuals. This symbiotic integration gives rise to a transformative educational paradigm that not only fosters intellectual intelligence but also humanizes and purifies the soul, thus producing a holistic generation that contributes to the well-being of humanity. This paradigm aligns Islamic education with global realities, prioritizing a balance between worldly and otherworldly knowledge, and emphasizing moral and spiritual development as integral parts of a more holistic and sustainable education.

This study examines Enha Water, a bottled mineral water business developed as an economic empowerment strategy based on Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) in Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province. The background of this research stems from the importance of the economic independence of Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) as Islamic educational institutions that play a role not only in religious development but also in strengthening the community's economy. The research method used was a qualitative case study approach. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation with the boarding school administrators, students, and related parties involved in the Enha Water business management. The results indicate that Enha Water's existence has significantly contributed to increasing the boarding school's income, creating jobs for students and the surrounding community, and fostering an entrepreneurial spirit based on Islamic values. Furthermore, this business also serves as a practical learning tool for students in economics and business management. Challenges faced include limited capital, marketing distribution, and competition with similar products. This study concludes that Enha Water has the potential to become a model for sustainable Islamic boarding school economic empowerment if supported by professional management, product innovation, and synergy with various stakeholders.

This study aims to analyze and compare the poems Anant Prem by Rabindranath Tagore and Tentu, Kau Boleh by Sapardi Djoko Damono. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach focusing on several literary aspects, namely the central theme, tone and atmosphere, diction, characterization, conceptual meaning of love, and philosophical perspective. The findings indicate that both poems share similarities in presenting love as a profound emotional experience, expressed through intimate and reflective nuances. Each poem portrays emotionally intertwined characters whose inner experiences revolve around the presence of love as a central force. Despite these similarities, the two poems differ significantly in how they interpret and narrate love. In Anant Prem, Tagore frames love as eternal and transcendent, surpassing the confines of time and space. This creates a contemplative and spiritual tone supported by metaphorical and symbolic diction. Meanwhile, Tentu, Kau Boleh portrays love as an immediate and personal experience rooted in everyday human interactions. Sapardi expresses love through calm, straightforward language that reflects simplicity and emotional closeness. Philosophically, Tagore positions love as part of cosmic existence, whereas Sapardi views it as a presence embodied in the warmth and intimacy of daily human life. These distinctions highlight how cultural background, worldview, and poetic tradition influence the depiction of love in both works.

The rise of the phenomenon of early marriage in Indonesia is the background to the birth of Republic of Indonesia Law number 16 of 2019 concerning marriage and the compilation of Islamic law, which sets the age limit for marriage to 19 years. The reality is that in society there are many cases asking to be able to get married and have it officially registered, which has led to the existence of a marriage dispensation. Marriage dispensation is permitted by law by considering positive matters. The aim of this study is to determine the long-term impact of early marriage on the welfare of individuals, families and society. The method used is qualitative, data collection is carried out by interviews, direct observation and also data related to the theme. Using this method will make it easier to observe phenomena in society regarding marriage dispensations. The data analysis used was an inductive method (Creswell, 1994). The results obtained were that the marriage dispensation from a legal perspective did not conflict with Law 16 of 2019. The granting of marriage dispensations was carried out by considering the impact. From a sociological perspective, our society views early marriage as something normal and often forgets the impact of child marriage. Marriage dispensation is a rational choice, even though the risks faced are very high. Therefore, it is necessary to increase public awareness of promiscuity and return to the essence of marriage.

Human philosophy is one of the branches of philosophy that explores the essence of human beings, their existence, the values inherent within them, and their relationship with the surrounding environment. In Indonesia, the study of philosophy is often perceived as an abstract subject, distant from everyday life. However, when students are introduced to various cross-cultural philosophical perspectives, a new awareness emerges about what it truly means to be human in a richer and more reflective sense. This study employs a qualitative approach to provide contextual and narrative understanding of students’ experiences in learning human philosophy from diverse cultural and global perspectives. In-depth interviews were conducted with 24 students who had taken the human philosophy course, and the data were analyzed using content analysis to identify key emerging themes. The findings revealed six major themes: developing critical and reflective thinking, understanding cultural diversity, strengthening ethics and morality, increasing self-awareness, making decisions through philosophical perspectives, and fostering tolerance and appreciation for differences. These findings highlight that the study of human philosophy is not only academically relevant but also transformative in shaping students’ character and global awareness. Therefore, it is recommended that human philosophy be taught using a multicultural and global approach, rather than being limited to a single cultural perspective.

The reconstruction of reality in films has a significant connection to everyday life, particularly in depicting cultural clashes that occur in the context of romantic relationships. Interactions between individuals from different cultural and religious backgrounds are becoming increasingly common, often giving rise to challenges and conflicts in relationship dynamics. Therefore, it is important to understand how films can reflect and interpret these issues. This study aims to identify the reconstruction of reality and cultural clashes present in the narrative of the film “Komang.” The method applied in this study is narrative analysis with a descriptive qualitative approach, which produces descriptive data in the form of written or spoken words from the subjects being studied. The theoretical review used in this study is narrative analysis as proposed by Tzvetan Todorov, which emphasizes the existence of plot structure in a story. The results of this study show that this film depicts the complex and challenging dynamics faced by couples from different cultural and religious backgrounds. In addition, this film also raises crucial social issues, such as cultural and religious differences, as well as the importance of communication in maintaining romantic relationships.  

This study aims to determine and analyze employee performance in improving services at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Gorontalo City. Viewed from the following aspects: (1) Performance Quality, (2) Punctuality, (3) Initiative, (4) Ability, and (5) Communication. This research method uses a Qualitative Approach with a Descriptive type. Data collection techniques used in this study are observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that employee performance is generally good, as seen from the existence of friendly, clear service, and the use of technology to support the administrative process. However, there are still several obstacles, especially related to limited service infrastructure and network disruptions that hinder the speed of service. From the aspect of performance quality, employees have attempted to provide services according to standards, although document errors are still found due to the lack of accuracy from the public in completing files. The timeliness of service is relatively optimal, supported by the implementation of a maximum service standard of 24 hours. From the initiative side, employees have been quite responsive to public complaints. Employees' ability to operate service applications is good. Meanwhile, the communication aspect has been running effectively through the delivery of information that is easy to understand, a persuasive attitude, and the use of supporting media such as pamphlets and banners.

This study aims to analyze the communication strategy implemented by Global Radio 88.4 FM Jakarta in maintaining its existence as a youth radio amidst the rapid growth of digital media. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study collects data through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The data obtained is analyzed using Cangara's communication strategy theory and George R. Terry's POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling) management theory. The results show that Global Radio 88.4 FM Jakarta implements several key strategies, including program segmentation to meet the needs of young audiences, optimizing the use of social media such as TikTok and Instagram, and strengthening emotional relationships with listeners. The success of these strategies is influenced by well-planned content, efficient team organization, and flexible execution that responds to trends among the youth generation. However, amidst the growing competition in the digital world, challenges faced include changes in media consumption patterns and limited resources. This study provides insights into the importance of adapting communication strategies to maintain the existence of traditional radio in the digital era.

The development of digital technology has transformed children’s patterns of interaction through online games, which serve both as entertainment and transactional spaces. As digital consumers, children are entitled to protection equal to adults, yet they remain vulnerable to risks such as inappropriate content, fraud, data manipulation, and exploitation. Despite the existence of legal frameworks like the Consumer Protection Law, the Child Protection Law, and the Electronic Information and Transactions Law, this study reveals that these laws do not specifically address children as a vulnerable group in the digital environment. This research employs an empirical normative approach to highlight the shortcomings of current regulations. Given the rapidly growing use of digital platforms by children, stronger regulatory measures, greater parental involvement, and increased responsibility from platform providers are essential to ensure the fulfillment of children’s rights and provide adequate protection in the digital space. These findings emphasize the need for comprehensive legal reform to safeguard children’s digital rights.

This research discusses the phenomenon of social organizations (ormas) in Indonesia from a legal perspective and the challenges of democracy. The freedom of association guarantyd by Article 28E paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution serves as the legal basis for the existence of social organizations, which are further regulated by Law Number 17 of 2013 and Law Number 16 of 2017. Regulatory changes, particularly the government's authority to dissolve mass organizations without judicial process, have sparked a debate between the need to maintain public order and the guaranty of the principle of due process of law. The research method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach, supported by a literature study from primary and secondary legal materials. The study results show that although mass organizations have great potential in strengthening democracy, challenges such as identity politics, radicalism, lack of funding transparency, and state power abuse against mass organizations still pose major obstacles. Therefore, balanced legal regulations, transparent oversight, and enhanced democratic literacy are needed to ensure that the role of social organizations remains in line with the principles of the rule of law and Pancasila democracy.  

This paper discusses the existence and position of customary law in Aceh, which has long grown and developed within the Acehnese community, as well as its recognition within the national legal system. The 1945 Constitution recognizes the existence of customary law communities and their traditional rights, as stated in Article 18B (2), which indicates the special and unique position of customary law within Indonesia's legal system. In Aceh, the position of customary law is clearly visible, especially since the enactment of Law No. 11 of 2006 on the Governance of Aceh, which further strengthens the position of Acehnese customary law in the national legal system. The recognition of customary law in the Indonesian constitution is expected to have a positive impact on the sustainability of customary law’s existence in Aceh and across Indonesia. Customary law in Aceh, with its various implementations, has become an inseparable part of the country's legal structure and the culture of the Acehnese people. Therefore, it is hoped that the recognition and protection of customary law will continue to evolve, creating a balance between customary legal norms and national law.

The Indonesian government has been actively combating illegal fishing practices at sea because they harm the country and reduce fish populations. However, attention to freshwater fisheries, especially endemic fish, is still limited. In fact, endemic fish play an important role in aquatic ecosystems and local culture. Fish resource conservation aims to protect, preserve, and utilize fish and their ecosystems and genetic diversity so that their existence and availability remain sustainable. The diversity of freshwater fish in Indonesia faces serious threats from human activities. The main factor is the introduction of new species that grow uncontrollably, becoming pests and harming ecosystems and communities. In addition, overfishing and declining habitat quality further exacerbate the situation. These threats pose a risk of extinction for endemic fish. Therefore, conservation efforts need to be strengthened to maintain ecosystem balance and support the livelihoods of communities that depend on fish farming. Legal protection is an important aspect in addressing this issue. Law No. 31 of 2004 concerning Fisheries and Law No. 5 of 1990 concerning Conservation of Living Natural Resources and Ecosystems have provided a legal basis for fish resource management. However, their implementation and enforcement remain weak. This study uses a normative juridical approach with secondary legal materials, emphasizing the importance of improving the legal framework and more effective governance. Measurable, transparent, and sustainable conservation measures are needed to ensure the optimal utilization of fish resources. Thus, the sustainability of freshwater ecosystems and the welfare of communities that depend on endemic fish can be guaranteed.

Law Number 31 of 1999 in conjunction with Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Eradication of Corruption Crimes (Tipikor Law) requires the existence of state financial losses as an important element in Article 2 paragraph (1) and Article 3. Following Constitutional Court Decision No. 25/PUU-XIV/2016, proof of state losses must be actual losses, rather than potential losses. However, in practice, there is a discrepancy between legal norms and the reality of law enforcement, especially in state-owned enterprises (SOEs) engaged in banking. There is disharmony between the Anti-Corruption Law, the State Finance Law, and the SOE Law, particularly regarding the financial status of SOEs as separate state assets. This study uses a normative legal method with a statute approach. The results show that proving state financial losses in banking SOEs related to corruption requires an examination by an authorised institution to declare state financial losses. Based on Article 10 paragraph (1) of Law No. 15 of 2006 concerning the Audit Board, it is explained that the Audit Board has the authority to determine the existence or absence of state losses. The audit process carried out by the Audit Board on state-owned banking enterprises suspected of causing state financial losses must be an investigative audit process, not a state loss calculation audit that is usually carried out on government institutions.

Job opportunities are available for prospective workers who are looking for work. The existence of job opportunities in an area will greatly open up opportunities for labor absorption, such as opening job opportunities for local inter-worker (AKL) workers, which is the placement of workers between regencies/cities working within one province. The research method used in this study is a descriptive research method with a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through interviews, observations, and documentation at the Pematang Siantar City Manpower Office. All data obtained will be analyzed qualitatively with all data collected using the theory of Fred R. David (2019), namely Strategy Implementation with 3 variables, namely Strategy Development, Human Resource Allocation, and Determining Budget Funds. Based on the research that has been conducted, it can be seen that the Pematang Siantar City Manpower Office has attempted to provide the best solution by designing several programs to provide more job opportunities. Viewed from the development strategy perspective, the Manpower Office has realized several work programs such as job fair events held, competency-based training programs that are already running, and focusing on information about the labor market. The analysis revealed several shortcomings, including the government's inconsistency in implementing the program. Furthermore, the government's human resource allocation has been unable to improve the quality of human resources, particularly in Pematang Siantar City. Furthermore, the government's budget allocation has been ineffective in determining appropriate funding, resulting in limited funding and ineffective program implementation.
