Awig-Awig (traditional customary law) is a form of written customary law that exists and continues to develop within indigenous communities, particularly in Bali and Lombok. As part of Indonesia's pluralistic legal system, Awig-Awig plays a significant role in regulating social order, maintaining harmony, governing inter-community relations, and preserving local cultural and religious values. This study aims to examine the existence of Awig-Awig as a binding source of law within indigenous communities, as well as to analyze its relationship with the national legal system. The methods used in this research include juridical-normative and sociological approaches, supported by case studies conducted in several indigenous villages in Bali and Lombok. The results show that Awig-Awig remains highly relevant, respected, and effectively implemented as a community guideline. However, harmonization with state law is necessary to prevent potential norm conflicts and ensure legal certainty. These findings highlight the importance of formal recognition, protection, and integration of customary law within Indonesia’s national legal framework.

This research aims to examine and analyze the phenomenon of speeding and illegal racing, which poses a significant threat to traffic safety within the legal jurisdiction of the Buleleng Resort Police (Polres Buleleng). The study employs empirical legal research methods, gathering primary data through observations and interviews with traffic police officers, alongside secondary data from legal literature and previous studies. The findings indicate that the speeding phenomenon in Buleleng is predominantly carried out by teenagers and young adults, often motivated by social media trends, peer pressure, and the search for identity. This reckless behavior leads to a high rate of traffic accidents, frequently resulting in severe injuries or fatalities. Furthermore, law enforcement efforts by Polres Buleleng face several challenges, including the high mobility of the perpetrators, lack of personnel during specific hours, and low legal awareness among the public. Preventive measures such as counseling in schools and repressive measures like electronic traffic law enforcement (E-TLE) and routine patrols need to be optimized. This study concludes that an integrated approach involving the police, educational institutions, and parents is crucial to mitigating the speeding phenomenon and ensuring traffic safety.

The fundamental issue in sustainable tourism management that remains less than optimal can be seen from the limited involvement of local communities and the lack of integrated management of tourism potential in the Pura Maduwe Karang area. The purpose of this study is to analyze sustainable tourism management in the management of Pura Maduwe Karang. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study method through observation, interviews, literature review, and documentation. The theoretical foundations used include the concepts of Sustainable Tourism, the Triple Bottom Line, and Tourism Impact Theory.The results show that the implementation of sustainable tourism management at Pura Maduwe Karang is still basic and has not been structured professionally. The socio-cultural aspect is relatively well preserved through customary roles and ceremonial activities; however, the economic aspect has not provided significant benefits for individuals in the local community, as contributions remain limited to collective interests of the traditional village. The environmental aspect is currently well maintained due to the temple’s sacred status but may decline if tourist numbers increase without proper management. The main constraints lie in the lack of promotion, facilities, and human resource capacity in management. This study emphasizes the importance of tourism management strategies that balance the dimensions of profit, people, and planet, and encourages collaboration among traditional villages, local governments, and communities to maintain the sustainability of the temple as both a cultural heritage site and a tourist destination.

Clove is one of the plantation commodities that plays a significant role in the national economy, particularly as a raw material for the kretek cigarette industry, as well as the food and pharmaceutical industries. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing clove production in Bengkel Village, Busungbiu District, Buleleng Regency. The independent variables used in this study include labor, capital, harvested area, and fertilizer, while clove production serves as the dependent variable. A quantitative approach was employed using a multiple linear regression analysis in the form of a power function. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 140 clove farmers as respondents. The results of the study indicate that labor, capital, harvested area, and fertilizer simultaneously have a significant effect on clove production in Bengkel Village. Partially, each of these variables also has a positive and significant effect on production. These findings highlight the importance of optimizing the use of these production factors to improve clove yields in Bengkel Village, Busungbiu District, Buleleng Regency.

This research aims (1) examine the implementation of restorative justice by the Buleleng District Prosecutor's Office in cases of receiving stolen goods (penadahan) committed through the Facebook Marketplace platform, with a primary focus on the application of restorative justice despite the loss value exceeding the threshold set by prevailing laws and regulations; and (2) identify the considerations used by the Buleleng District Prosecutor’s Office in applying restorative justice to cases of receiving stolen goods conducted via Facebook Marketplace. The research adopts an empirical juridical method with a descriptive approach. Participants were selected purposively using purposive sampling. Data collection techniques included direct observation, interviews with relevant parties, and a review of legal documents, which were then analyzed qualitatively.The findings indicate that (1) resolution through Restorative Justice remains possible even if the loss exceeds IDR 2,500,000, as long as all substantive requirements stipulated in Prosecutor's Regulation Number 15 of 2020 are fulfilled. The decision to terminate prosecution in this case was based on considerations of justice for the victim and the fact that the perpetrator’s level of culpability was not considered severe; and(2) the victim did not object to the act of receiving stolen goods and prioritized the return of their motorcycle, which was successfully recovered in its original condition. The victim also supported the peace process and did not file charges against the alleged receiver.  

Plantation agriculture encompasses all activities involving the cultivation of specific crops and the commercialization of their products and services, supported by science, technology, capital, and management, with the aim of improving the welfare of plantation business actors and the wider community. This study aims to analyze the production scale, input elasticity, and factors affecting clove production in Umejero Village, Busungbiu District, Buleleng Regency. Given the high dependence of farmers on harvest outcomes and price fluctuations, this analysis is essential to understand the impact of economic and agronomic variables such as working capital, labor, land area, and selling price on production output. The study employs a quantitative method using multiple linear regression based on the Cobb-Douglas production function. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews with clove farmers in Umejero Village using purposive sampling. The results indicate that all four variables simultaneously have a significant effect on clove production, with each variable also having a partial positive influence. The analysis of production scale shows increasing returns to scale, meaning that a proportional increase in all input factors leads to a more than proportional increase in output. The elasticity analysis indicates that capital input is elastic, suggesting that a small increase in capital leads to a disproportionately large increase in output. In contrast, labor, land area, and selling price are inelastic, implying that increases in these inputs result in only modest increases in output. These findings highlight the need for solid policy foundations and strategic initiatives to enhance clove productivity both at the farmer and local government levels. Furthermore, the study’s results are expected to assist farmers in making more informed and sustainable decisions in farm management, ultimately contributing to the improved welfare of clove-farming communities in the region.
