The rapid digitalization in Indonesia, reaching 180 million active social media users, has not been accompanied by adequate security system resilience, thereby triggering massive data breach risks. This study aims to analyze the privacy navigation mechanisms of the digital society as an instrument for mitigating information leaks. The method used is descriptive qualitative with a literature study (library research) approach, which examines primary and secondary literature related to regulations, digital behavior, and user psychological factors. The research findings indicate that privacy navigation in the digital era has not operated optimally due to the dominance of social existence needs, which triggers the privacy paradox phenomenon. Although users possess knowledge regarding cyber risks, the desire for social validation through self-disclosure often overrides technical protection logic. The practice of using secondary accounts (second accounts) was found to be a form of manual navigation, yet its effectiveness remains dependent on individual digital literacy. The implications of this research emphasize that mitigating information leaks requires the integration of critical user awareness, platform governance transparency, and consistent law enforcement through the PDP Law. Digital awareness must transform into reflexive protective behavior to maintain informational sovereignty in cyberspace.  

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.

dishonorable Discharge (PTDH) is the most severe administrative sanction for Civil Servants (PNS) proven to have committed corruption. This study aims to analyze the implementation of PTDH for corrupt civil servants and identify the obstacles in its execution. Using a normative legal research method with statutory, conceptual, and case study approaches, this study examines the effectiveness of PTDH through Lawrence M. Friedman's Legal System Theory, which includes legal substance, legal structure, and legal culture. The results show that, in terms of substance, the PTDH norm is strictly regulated in Government Regulation Number 17 of 2020. However, its implementation faces juridical, administrative, institutional, and socio-political obstacles, as reflected in the case of the delayed execution of PTDH for five civil servants in Mukomuko Regency. This phenomenon proves the existence of a gap between law in the books and law in action. Friedman's perspective explains that the failure of PTDH is caused by weaknesses in the legal structure (apparatus/executing institutions) and legal culture (integrity/ethics of the apparatus). This study concludes that the effectiveness of PTDH can only be achieved through synergy between firm legal substance, professional legal structure, and a legal culture that upholds the integrity of state apparatus.

This research is motivated by the reality of ethnic and cultural diversity in congregation life which reflects the dynamics of a multicultural society, where differences in cultural identity have the potential to cause social friction if not managed wisely. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with normative studies, with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation of informants consisting of pastors, congregation councils, and presbyters. The theory used is Ralph Linton's role theory which explains how individuals carry out social functions according to their status in society. The results of the study indicate that the life of the GMIT Sion Oepura congregation is characterized by multicultural dynamics as seen from the diversity of ethnicities such as Timor, Rote, Sabu, Flores, and Alor which not only enriches church life through cultural expressions in worship and church activities, but also gives rise to symbolic friction between ethnic groups, such as the tendency for the dominance of certain cultural symbols and the emergence of group ego attitudes in several worship activities, for example in the celebration of Language and Culture Month. In this situation, religious leaders play a role as leaders who embrace diversity, mediators in managing potential conflicts, and social and moral role models for the congregation through sermons, pastoral guidance, and various service activities that involve the entire congregation without differentiating cultural backgrounds. Despite the existence of cultural differences and the tendency for certain symbolic dominance, religious leaders are able to manage this diversity normatively so that it does not develop into open conflict. This study concludes that the role of religious leaders is very important in strengthening social solidarity and maintaining harmony in multicultural congregations.

This study aims to analyze the novel Laskar Pelangi by Andrea Hirata using a critical hermeneutic approach developed by Jürgen Habermas. The focus of this research is to uncover the critical meaning contained in the novel as a reflection of social reality, especially in the field of education. The method used is descriptive qualitative research with data collection techniques through literature studies and text analysis in the form of excerpts in novels. The results of the study show that the novel Laskar Pelangi not only presents an inspiring story, but also contains criticism of the education system in Indonesia which is still colored by inequality and injustice. In the aspect of communicative action, it was found that there was a dialogical interaction between teachers and students as well as the value of solidarity and strong struggle. However, in the aspect of communication distortion, there is injustice in access to education and a lack of space for poor groups to voice their interests. In addition, the analysis also reveals the existence of ideology and domination, especially economic dominance over education and social systems that oppress the lower groups. On the other hand, the emancipatory interest in this novel is reflected through education as a tool of liberation and the struggle of its characters in fighting against limitations. Thus, this study concludes that the novel Laskar Pelangi has an important role as a social criticism medium that is able to build readers' critical awareness of the reality of education and social inequality that occurs in society.

This study examines the lived faith of Catholic migrants from East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) who have migrated to the Muslim-majority landscape of South Kalimantan, Indonesia. These migrants face a profound crisis of identity as they transition from a dominant religious environment to a marginalized minority status, necessitating a research objective that explores how their faith is reinterpreted amidst such socio-religious pressures. Employing a qualitative phenomenological-hermeneutical method, the research utilizes Paul Ricoeur’s threefold mimesis - prefiguration, configuration, and refiguration - as its primary interpretive framework. The findings reveal a significant narrative shift from an inherited “communal Catholic habitus” to a “refigured faith” characterized by personal agency and reflective commitment. This transformation is sustained through adaptive relational ethics, such as the sanctification of work and collaborative hospitality, which allow migrants to navigate their vulnerability. The study synthesizes these experiences to conclude that internal migration constitutes a vital locus theologicus, wherein the rupture of traditional religious structures does not erode faith but rather matures it into a more resilient, intentional, and relational existential orientation. Consequently, migration emerges as a transformative theological process that redefines the intersection of faith, culture, and minority existence in pluralistic societies.

This study aims to analyze the legal regulation of joint ventures in Indonesia as a form of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) implemented through Limited Liability Companies based on Law Number 25 of 2007 concerning Investment, Law Number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies, and the Indonesian Civil Code. The research employs a normative legal method with a library research approach to examine legal provisions and concepts related to cooperation between foreign investors and domestic parties. The findings indicate the existence of structural imbalances between the parties, where foreign investors possess advantages in capital, technology, business experience, and access to information, resulting in asymmetrical bargaining power. This condition may lead to domination in decision-making, information gaps, and potential exploitation of domestic parties. Furthermore, existing legal protection is considered insufficient to fully implement the principle of equitable bargaining. Therefore, this study proposes a normative reconstruction through the application of principles of balance of power, good faith, transparency, and proportionality in joint venture agreements. The study also recommends preventive supervision through mandatory due diligence by the Financial Services Authority and the Investment Coordinating Board, including the standardization of contractual clauses and disclosure obligations, in order to create fair, sustainable joint venture relationships that protect national interests.

Narcotics abuse is no longer considered a victimless crime, but rather an offense that claims numerous victims and inflicts a prolonged catastrophe upon humanity. Furthermore, an emerging challenge is narcotics cases committed by recidivists, namely individuals who re-offend after having been previously convicted and sentenced. Recidivist status raises juridical issues, as it constitutes grounds for the aggravation of criminal penalties. The objective is to ensure that the imposition of criminal sentences effectively provides a deterrent effect and precludes the offender from repeating the same criminal offense. The existence of narcotics abuser recidivists also creates a distinct dilemma for Law Enforcement Officials. Judges are mandated to impose fair and proportionate sentences in accordance with statutory regulations. The recidivist status of a narcotics abuser frequently serves as a justification for Law Enforcement Officials to bypass the integrated assessment required for rehabilitation. This research utilizes a normative legal research method, employing statutory and conceptual approaches. The legal materials used consist of primary legal materials, taking the form of statutory regulations and court decisions, as well as secondary legal materials, comprising legal books and journals, which are analyzed using a descriptive-analytical method. The research findings indicate that recidivists may obtain rehabilitation even in the absence of an assessment. This research concludes that the objectives of sentencing, in addition to providing a deterrent effect, aim to cure or at least restore the offender's condition through rehabilitation; however, guidelines or jurisprudence are required to ensure legal certainty and consistency of application in the future.

This study aims to evaluate the determinants of organizational sustainability within the Doctor Peduli Foundation (doctorSHARE), specifically regarding its Floating Hospital program. Specifically, it examines the influence of stakeholder support and operational efficiency on organizational sustainability, while analyzing the role of organizational innovation as a mediating variable in ensuring the continuity of medical services in remote areas. Employing a quantitative approach with a survey method, data were collected from 81 respondents comprising staff and volunteers directly involved in the Floating Hospital's operations. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was utilized to analyze the data and test the proposed hypotheses.The results reveal that stakeholder support does not have a significant direct impact on either organizational sustainability or innovation performance. Conversely, operational efficiency emerged as a dominant factor with a significant positive influence. Furthermore, organizational innovation was found to play a crucial role as a mediator, strengthening the impact of operational efficiency on organizational sustainability.This study concludes that the sustainability of non-profit organizations such as doctorSHARE is determined more by management's ability to optimize internal resources efficiently and innovatively than by reliance on external support. Consequently, strengthening internal operational systems should be a primary strategic priority to ensure long-term organizational existence.

This study examines the integration of religious moderation values in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and its impact on students’ religious tolerance in public junior high schools in Padangsidimpuan City. The research is based on the need to foster tolerance, mutual respect, and harmonious coexistence among students from diverse religious and social backgrounds. Using a qualitative field research approach, the study was conducted in several public junior high schools. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving principals, PAI teachers, and students. Data analysis followed the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured through triangulation. The findings reveal that religious moderation values have been integrated into the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages of PAI learning. Teachers incorporate key values such as tolerance, justice, moderation, deliberation, equality, and anti-violence into both teaching materials and classroom practices. This integration has led to positive outcomes, including increased mutual respect among students, reduced conflicts, and a more harmonious learning environment. Overall, PAI learning plays a significant role in shaping students’ character, promoting moderate attitudes, and strengthening religious tolerance in a diverse school setting.

The purpose of this writing is to analyze Article 14 of Law Number 31 of 1999 jo. Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Corruption has a delegative character, because its enactment depends on the provisions of other laws that expressly declare a violation as a criminal act of corruption. The construction of these norms in practice gives rise to ambivalence in law enforcement, especially when various acts that are detrimental to state finances occur in strategic sectors that are not explicitly qualified as corruption crimes in sectoral laws. This condition has the potential to create a legal vacuum and hinder the effectiveness of eradicating corruption as an extraordinary crime. This study aims to analyze the practice of implementing Article 14 of the Law on the Eradication of Corruption and examine these provisions from the perspective of legal certainty, justice, and criminal law policy. The research method used is normative legal research with a legislative approach and a case approach. Research data was obtained through literature studies on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials that were analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study show that the delegative and limiting nature of Article 14 has implications for the low predictability of the law and opens up ambivalence between norms and law enforcement practices. In reality, law enforcement officials often apply the Corruption Crime Law to acts that are normatively outside the scope of Article 14, taking into account the existence of state financial losses and the interests of substantive justice. Therefore, Article 14 needs to be interpreted systemically and progressively and supported by the reformulation of norms and harmonization of laws and regulations to be in line with the dynamics and complexity of modern corruption crimes.

The rapid development of information and communication technology has led to the emergence of various forms of digital-based crimes, including the dissemination of electronic information containing online gambling content through social media. This situation poses challenges for criminal law enforcement, as the parties involved are not limited to gambling operators but also include individuals who promote and facilitate access to online gambling platforms. This study aims to examine criminal liability for perpetrators who disseminate electronic information containing gambling content and to analyze judicial considerations in sentencing, referring to the Decision of the Tanjung Karang District Court Number 823/Pid.Sus/2024/PN Tjk. The method used is normative juridical research with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. Data were collected through literature studies of relevant regulations, criminal law doctrines, and court decisions, and then analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method. The results show that the elements of criminal liability are fulfilled, including the existence of a criminal act, intent, capacity to be responsible, and the absence of grounds that eliminate criminal liability. Furthermore, the panel of judges’ considerations reflect a balanced assessment between juridical and non-juridical aspects, resulting in a decision that embodies legal certainty, justice, and utility. This study is expected to contribute to the development of criminal law, particularly in addressing online gambling crimes in the digital space.

This study analyzes law enforcement related to the application of the death penalty with a ten-year probation period as stipulated in the Criminal Code (KUHP). The results of the study show that the enforcement of the conditional death penalty is carried out in three stages, namely the formulation, application, and implementation stages. The formulation stage is reflected in the establishment of the death penalty as a special alternative and conditional punishment in Law Number 1 of 2023, the application stage is carried out through the application of norms by law enforcement officials, while the implementation stage relates to the execution of court decisions against convicts. The change in the construction of the death penalty from an absolute primary punishment to an alternative and special conditional punishment has fundamental legal implications for the criminal justice system in Indonesia, especially with the existence of discretion for judges and law enforcement officials to assess the possibility of changing the type of punishment based on the convicted person's remorse and efforts to reform themselves during the probation period.

The practice of independent nursing by nurses is a form of professional health services that require assurance of certainty and legal protection, especially after the enactment of Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health (Health Law) which integrates various health regulations. This study aims to analyze the form of legal protection for nurses in independent practice and identify the supporting and inhibiting factors for this legal protection. Problem formulation, 1) What is the form of legal protection for nurses who provide independent nursing practice services, 2) What are the supporting and inhibiting factors for legal protection for nurses who provide independent nursing practice. The research method used is normative legal research with a qualitative approach, sourced from secondary data in the form of laws and regulations and related legal literature. The results of the study show that the form of legal protection for nurses includes legality guarantees through STR and SIPP, compliance with professional standards and SPO, and the function of medical records as authentic evidence. The main supporting factors include the existence of a clear legal umbrella and nurses' compliance with regulations, while the inhibiting factors involve illegal practices (without permission), negligence in documentation, and ambiguity of authority. Conclusion: Legal protection for Nurse Practitioners in independent nursing practice is conditional and highly dependent on nurses' compliance with applicable legal norms and professional standards. Compliance with licensing, practice standards, and accurate documentation is the main key in optimizing the guarantee of legal protection.

Diversity is an inherent aspect of social life, particularly in a multicultural society like Indonesia, which comprises various ethnicities, races, cultures, and religions. Differences in belief should not lead to conflict but instead foster mutual respect and peaceful coexistence. Islam, as a religion of rahmatan lil ‘alamin (a blessing for all creation), upholds tolerance as a fundamental social value. However, the Qur'an outlines certain limits to ensure tolerance does not compromise core principles of faith. This study aims to explore the concept and boundaries of religious tolerance from the perspectives of three prominent Nusantara exegetes: Shaikh Nawawi al-Bantani, Muhammad Hasbi al-Shiddieqy, and Buya Hamka, while identifying similarities and differences in their views. Using a library research method with a comparative descriptive analysis, the study examines their interpretations. The findings reveal that all three scholars share a consistent understanding of tolerance as an attitude of mutual respect, understanding, and acceptance of differences to achieve a peaceful and harmonious society. Nevertheless, they differ in defining its limits. Nawawi al-Bantani includes aspects of faith and politics, Hasbi emphasizes moral-based social interactions, and Hamka confines tolerance to social relations not related to faith.

This study aims to analyze legal protection for lenders in the terms and conditions clauses of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Lending platforms in Indonesia, particularly regarding the risk of default or breach of contract. The background of the study is based on the rapid growth of the P2P Lending fintech industry accompanied by an increase in the risk of default, as well as the potential imbalance in the lenders' bargaining position due to the use of standard clauses that are often detrimental. The results of this study reveal that of the 10 P2P Lending platforms that the author studied, none of the platforms can be said to have completely fulfilled all components of preventive and repressive protection as regulated by POJK No. 40 of 2024. This problem is exacerbated by the existence of exoneration clauses prohibited by POJK No. 22 of 2023 Article 46 paragraph (2), where platforms often unilaterally limit their responsibilities by transferring the risk of default entirely to lenders, thereby reducing consumer rights and violating the principle of consumer protection in Law No. 8 of 1999 Article 18 paragraph (1).

Divorce gives rise to various legal consequences relating to the status of the parties, marital property, and the rights and obligations toward children, thereby requiring a legal mechanism that ensures legal certainty, justice, and legal protection. In practice, the parties often express their intention to divorce in the form of a Pre-Divorce Agreement Deed drawn up before a notary. This study aims to analyze the legal standing and evidentiary strength of a Pre-Divorce Agreement Deed as evidence in divorce cases decided by default judgment (verstek). The research employs a normative juridical method with a statutory approach and a case approach, focusing on the Decision of the Ngawi Religious Court Number 425/Pdt.G/2023, through a literature review of primary and secondary legal materials. The findings indicate that a Pre-Divorce Agreement Deed executed in the form of a notarial deed constitutes an authentic deed with perfect evidentiary value as written evidence in divorce proceedings. Although it cannot directly result in the dissolution of marriage, the deed is relevant to prove the existence of an agreement between the parties and the condition of a marital relationship that has irretrievably broken down. In cases decided by default judgment, the deed becomes an important basis for judicial consideration in granting the divorce petition. The implications of this study emphasize that a Pre-Divorce Agreement Deed may be lawfully and proportionately used as evidence to support the proof of grounds for divorce and to realize legal certainty in judicial proceedings.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal basis for the qualification of unlawful acts in disputes concerning the unilateral cancellation of life insurance policies by the insurer as reflected in Decision Number 5871 K/Pdt/2024. This research is a normative legal study with a prescriptive nature, employing both case and statutory approaches. The legal materials used in this study consist of primary and secondary legal materials which are analyzed qualitatively using the syllogistic method with deductive reasoning. The results of the study indicate that the qualification of an unlawful act in the a quo decision is based on a systematic interpretation of Article 1338 of the Indonesian Civil Code, which is understood in relation to the binding source of agreements under Article 1339 of the Indonesian Civil Code. Furthermore, the existence of naturalia elements also emphasizes the presence of legal obligations inherent in an agreement even though they are not explicitly stated therein. In life insurance, the obligation to pay claims after the insured risk has occurred constitutes a normative consequence inherent in the policy; therefore, the unilateral cancellation of a life insurance policy fulfills the elements of an unlawful act as stipulated in Article 1365 of the Indonesian Civil Code.

This study explores the shift from traditional to modernist educational paradigms in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), which have been in existence since before Indonesia’s independence. The shift involves adapting learning methods while retaining traditionalist approaches, ensuring that they meet modern needs without eliminating their core values. The study uses a qualitative-phenomenological approach to examine three main areas: (1) the strategy of educational values and spiritual practices employed by pesantren leaders, with an emphasis on the TAQWA method, which aims to improve student understanding quickly; (2) the integration of Qur'an literacy, religious traditions, and environmental empowerment in the educational process; and (3) the impact of this model on student character development. Qur'an literacy in this context extends beyond reading and memorizing verses, focusing on understanding and actualizing its values in daily life. Religious practices such as book study, worship routines, and etiquette coaching promote moral development. Environmental activities, such as agriculture and natural resource management, encourage independence and ecological awareness. This holistic approach can serve as a model for character education, blending spiritual, social, and environmental aspects, while strengthening pesantren's role in fostering moral and ecological awareness.
