Land issues in Indonesia show complex dynamics due to legal vacuum and legal loopholes in the applicable land law system. This condition is exacerbated by the weakness of implementing regulations of the UUPA which are unable to respond to developments in the era, thus opening up space for land mafia practices and overlapping development policies. This legal vacuum impacts violations of community rights to land, environmental degradation, and the failure to realize optimal legal protection. The study uses a normative legal approach based on secondary data from literature studies to analyze the urgent need for land law reform. The findings reveal the need for the land law system renewal to create stronger protection of community rights and ensure a sustainable development direction by environmental conditions.

Magelang Regency, Central Java, has great potential in the agrotourism sector that can contribute to the local economy and the preservation of cultural values. This study aims to design an Agrotourism Law that regulates the management, development, and protection of the environment in the area. The research method used is empirical juridical, which involves collecting primary data from local communities and analyzing existing regulations. The results of the study indicate that the development of agrotourism in Magelang Regency is still hampered by the lack of coordination and unclear regulations, which can trigger environmental exploitation and injustice in the distribution of economic benefits. Therefore, the drafted law must include regulations on sustainable management, rights and obligations of business actors, environmental protection, promotion of local culture, and financial support for community-based agrotourism. This study is expected to be a reference in formulating policies that are beneficial for the development of sustainable and inclusive agrotourism in Magelang Regency.

One critical component in the rapidly expanding halal tourism industry is the existence of hotels catering to the needs of Muslim travelers, known as Sharia-compliant hotels. Operating within the framework of Islamic law, these hotels bear the responsibility of managing funds in accordance with Sharia principles. The management of non-halal funds within such establishments presents a complex challenge that necessitates careful consideration to ensure compliance with Islamic values while addressing financial and social aspects. This study aims to provide insights into strategies for managing non-halal funds in Sharia-compliant hotels within the framework of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and from the perspective of Islamic economic law. Using a qualitative research approach with descriptive analysis through a literature review, the findings indicate that the legal status of non-halal funds may be permissible if allocated for general public welfare. Recommended management strategies include adherence to the PSAK 101 accounting standard and the application of Tafriq Shafqah principles through CSR initiatives. Non-halal funds are optimally distributed for social welfare (maslahah wa tashrif al-‘ammah) such as empowering local communities through education and training, supporting zakat and charity programs, promoting sustainable environmental management, ensuring fair employment opportunities, fostering local economic development, and enhancing public education and awareness. These efforts not only enhance the positive reputation of Sharia-compliant hotels but also contribute significantly to the economic, environmental, and social well-being of the broader community.

This study aims to examine the role of Islamic accounting in the muamalah perspective as an important instrument in promoting sustainable economic growth. Islamic accounting, which is based on the principles of fairness, transparency, and benefit, plays a role not only in recording financial transactions, but also in ensuring business practices are in accordance with Islamic law. In the context of muamalah, principles such as the prohibition of riba, gharar, and maisir encourage the creation of a fair and stable economic system. This research uses the literature review method by analyzing relevant theories and previous research. The results of the study show that the implementation of Islamic accounting not only provides benefits for business people, but also contributes to sustainable development goals, such as poverty reduction, social welfare improvement, and environmental preservation. Thus, the application of Islamic accounting in muamalah practice can be a holistic solution to realize sustainable and equitable economic growth.

The artisanal shipping industry in Indonesia, particularly in Batam and Tanjungpinang, has experienced significant stagnation and decline due to the aging fleet and fleet extinction. The background of this study is based on the importance of the artisanal shipping industry in supporting the local and national maritime economy, as well as the major challenges facing the sector in maintaining efficient and sustainable operations. The purpose of this research is to analyze the juridical factors that cause the non-development of the people's shipping industry in the area, as well as identify legal measures that can support the development of this industry.  The research method applied combines normative and empirical approaches through case studies in Batam and Tanjungpinang. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with boat owners, fishermen, government officials, and maritime law experts, as well as analysis of relevant documents. The research integrates John Austin's positive law theory, Lawrence M. Friedman's legal system theory, and systems theory to analyze interactions within the maritime legal system. The results show that burdensome regulations, lack of access to financing, declining competitiveness, as well as environmental impacts and socio-economic factors are the main causes of the underdevelopment of the community shipping industry. Strict regulations and high operational costs make it difficult for small boat owners to comply with regulations, while limited access to financing hinders fleet rejuvenation and upgrades. An aging and inefficient fleet lowers the industry's competitiveness, and environmental pollution from old vessels worsens operating conditions. Suggestions include revising regulations to simplify and reduce administrative burdens, providing accessible financing and subsidy schemes, improving port infrastructure, and training and certification programs for ship owners and crew. In addition, international cooperation is also needed to adopt technology and best practices in the shipping industry. The implementation of these recommendations is expected to support the development of the small-scale shipping industry in Batam and Tanjungpinang, improve competitiveness, and make a greater contribution to Indonesia's maritime economy.    

Environmental pollution is one of the most important problems that can prevent achieving environmental sustainability. Therefore, most countries have resorted to adopting mechanisms to preserve the environment, and green auditing is one of the most important means and mechanisms that can be exploited to activate and achieve sustainable development in general and environmental sustainability in particular. This study aims to clarify the role of green auditing in achieving environmental sustainability, and this is through identifying the concept of green auditing and its types, addressing the concept of environmental sustainability, and highlighting the role of green auditing in achieving it. The study found that green auditing has an effective role in achieving environmental sustainability by improving sustainable environmental performance and controlling environmental risks (reducing judicial issues and penalties associated with non-compliance with laws related to environmental protection).

Sustainable development is a development paradigm that is directly related to the balance of nature or the environment, just as the paradigm of sustainable development is a concept that is accepted as a political agenda of development for all countries in the world where the relationship between economy and ecology is important in the discussion of sustainable development itself. Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs The concept of sustainable development is a necessity to reconcile economic development, quality of life, and the environment in a diverse political framework that is interrelated at the international and global levels. Thus, it can be concluded that the meaning of sustainable development cannot be separated from environmental sustainability. A sustainable environment is expected to support human life. Sustainabledevelopment that is environmentally sound is able to improve the quality of life of present and future generations. Therefore, it is necessary to review the concept of local wisdom that exists in legislation and other Regulations that hierarchically exist under it to close loopholes and fence in such a way that the claims of local wisdom remain sacred and not easily perverted casually by the detractors of commercial economic interests for a moment. On the other hand, it is necessary to be aware of political elites and stakeholders to avoid intervention and political content of decisions taken by the government in intervening in cases of environmental damage under the pretext  of natural  disasters which are part of the bad side of law enforcement for environmental destruction, especially in the application of Strict Liability without having to prove a mistake.

The implementation of environmental law influenced the success of the Eco Town program in maintaining the sustainability of river ecosystems by providing a strong foundation for preserving the environment. The implementation of strict regulations related to environmental protection and river management is key in ensuring that development within Eco Town does not damage the river ecosystem. In several case studies such as the Ciliwung River and the Brantas River, the implementation of environmental law has recorded significant improvements in the sustainability of river ecosystems. The main challenges faced in implementing environmental laws to support Eco Town programs are resource limitations, especially in terms of funds, technology, and natural resources. These limitations may hinder the effectiveness of the program and affect the ability to address environmental problems such as industrial or domestic waste management, and maintain ecological balance. To overcome these challenges, concrete measures such as improved accessibility and technology transfer, sustainable management of natural resources, and investment in environmental infrastructure are needed. By ensuring a solid environmental law implementation and paying attention to these limitations, the Eco Town program can run more effectively and efficiently in maintaining the sustainability of the river ecosystem and realizing a vision of sustainable development.

Islamic banking, with principles based on Islamic law, has developed rapidly and become an important part of the global financial system. In the last few decades, Islamic banking has not only been seen as an alternative to conventional banking, but also as an instrument that can make a significant contribution to sustainable economic development. Sharia principles such as the prohibition of riba (interest), maisir (speculation), and gharar (uncertainty) as well as a commitment to social justice and general welfare provide a strong foundation for promoting a sustainable and inclusive economy. This research describes the challenges and opportunities of Islamic banking in realizing sustainable economic development in the form of writing based on literature studies carried out by finding secondary data obtained from literature studies carried out. In expressing the challenges and opportunities of sharia banking in realizing sustainable economic development, it is carried out using the concept of sustainable economic development by looking at three aspects, namely social aspects, economic aspects and environmental aspects.

The general aim of writing this paper is to clarify the implementation of environmental impact analysis (AMDAL) in Indonesia and efforts to overcome various obstacles faced in enforcing environmental laws. The research method used in writing this article is normative legal research, but what is analyzed is not data, but through a case approach method, namely to be able to understand material facts by paying attention to the abstraction of the formulation of facts that occur in environmental law enforcement in Indonesia. Thus, there is a close relationship between analytical methods and problem approaches. The results of the study show that environmental impact analysis is an effective control method. AMDAL is essentially a refinement of a development project planning process. The negative impacts that are often caused by development projects can be minimized with AMDAL. Efforts that can be made to make this happen are by carrying out development that is environmentally friendly, that is, the environment is taken into account from the time the development is planned until the construction is operational. With environmentally friendly development, development can be sustainable. As has been evaluated, the AMDAL process in Indonesia has many weaknesses, including: AMDAL has not been fully integrated in the licensing of a development activity plan, the community participation process has not been fully optimal. Apart from that, there are also various weaknesses in the implementation of AMDAL studies and the methods for preparing AMDAL, especially socio-cultural aspects, are still weak.

The management of oil and gas (Migas) in Indonesian energy law has witnessed a shift towards national control, including provisions in the 1945 Constitution that establish natural resources as state wealth. Law No. 22/2001 regulates various technical, economic, environmental, and community participation aspects of the oil and gas sector. Decisions by the Constitutional Court (MK) have clarified the state's ownership of Migas resources in accordance with the constitution. Renewable energy is crucial for Indonesia's sustainable development, with collaboration between the government and the private sector aimed at increasing the penetration of renewable energy, overcoming financial barriers, and protecting the environment. The MK's decision regarding Law No. 22/2001 supports state sovereignty, the interests of the people, and the goals of preserving natural resources and sustainable development. The key issue at hand is the nature of oil and gas management in Indonesian energy law and whether the legal considerations in the Constitutional Court's decision No. 36/PUU-X/2012 align with Indonesian energy law. The research method employed in this study is a normative juridical approach, also referred to as doctrinal research, which involves the examination of legal documents and literature. Through this research, Indonesia aims to fulfill its commitment to reducing environmental impact and dependence on fossil fuels through renewable energy sources.
