This study describes Islamic public and social finance: the role and mechanisms of government oversight of economic activities from an Islamic perspective. The purpose of this study is to explain Islamic public and social finance: the role and mechanisms of government oversight of economic activities from an Islamic perspective. The research method is qualitative. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis techniques through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. This research finds that the government's role from an Islamic public and social finance perspective is not only as a regulator but also as an active supervisor, ensuring that economic activities are run in accordance with Sharia principles. Supervisory mechanisms are implemented through the institution of hisbah (Islamic tax), Sharia-based regulations, and a system of public financial accountability and transparency. Furthermore, Islamic social finance instruments such as zakat (alms), infaq (donations), sedekah (charity), and waqf (endowments) have been proven to play a role in equitable wealth distribution and reducing social inequality. This supervisory concept remains relevant in the modern economic context, including the digital sector and Sharia finance. The implications of this research suggest that the government needs to strengthen the implementation of Islamic-based supervision in the modern economic system by strengthening Sharia financial institutions, optimizing the management of Islamic social funds, and enhancing transparent and accountable regulations. Furthermore, adaptation of Islamic supervisory mechanisms is necessary to address the development of the digital economy. This research also implies the importance of increasing Sharia economic literacy among the public to support the creation of a more sustainable and equitable economic system.

This research aims to examine the provisions and status of probation as a principal punishment in the National Criminal Code, as well as its relevance to achieving the objectives of reforming the penal system in Indonesia. The research design employed is normative legal research using a legislative and conceptual approach. The data utilized consists of secondary data obtained through a literature review, analyzed using qualitative descriptive techniques. The results of the research show that probation under Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code has been established as one of the principal penalties that can be directly imposed by a judge, thus no longer merely a component of conditional sentences as in the old Criminal Code. This regulation reflects a paradigm shift in sentencing from a retributive approach toward a rehabilitative and restorative approach by providing offenders with the opportunity to remain within the community under supervision. However, its implementation still faces challenges, including the absence of comprehensive technical regulations, potential conflicts of norms, and institutional limitations in carrying out supervision. Therefore, supervised probation holds significant relevance as a more humane sentencing alternative, although it requires strengthened regulations and a supervision system to ensure its effective and consistent application.

Cooperatives, as the backbone of the people's economy, play a strategic role in improving the welfare of their members, particularly through the management of business profits. This role becomes even more complex when cooperatives receive government assistance sourced from state finances, as its management concerns not only the internal interests of the cooperative, but also the public interest. In practice, the extensive authority of cooperative administrators is often not balanced with strict restrictions and effective oversight mechanisms, thereby creating the potential for abuse of authority and weak accountability. The purpose of this study is to determine whether legal regulations can limit the authority of administrators so that they do not abuse government assistance and to determine whether existing regulations provide adequate oversight mechanisms. The research method used was normative juridical with a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The results of the study show that normatively, the authority of cooperative administrators has been limited through the principle of delegation from member meetings and accountability obligations, and reinforced by the state financial legal regime through government assistance. In addition, the supervisory mechanism has been regulated in layers through internal and external supervision, although in practice it still has the potential to be formalistic. The implication of this study is the importance of strengthening the implementation of authority restrictions and effective supervisory mechanisms in order to realize accountable, transparent, and sustainable cooperative governance, while maintaining public trust in government assistance programs.

This study analyzes the effectiveness of installed supervision (Waskat) by the Sub-district Head on the performance of employees at the Bukit Kapur District Office, Dumai City, in the midst of the demands of public service accountability. The background involves local bureaucratic challenges such as resource constraints and employee resistance. Using a qualitative approach with field observation for two weeks (15-29 December 2025), including in-depth interviews with 5 employees and 2 community informants, plus data triangulation from attendance records and performance reports, it was analyzed thematically. The results revealed attendance increased to 95%, absenteeism decreased by 2%, and work output increased from 50 to 65 permit documents each week. Quotes such as "Direct supervision motivates me" (Employee A, 2025) affirm the preventive role of Waskat, despite obstacles such as over-tasking, in line with Fauzan (2024) on civil servant governance. The discussion highlighted Waskat as a tool for local bureaucratic reform. This conclusion affirms the effectiveness of Waskat in improving performance, recommending humanistic and digital adaptation. Policy implications for local governments, with suggestions for future studies using a larger sample.

Digital transformation has transformed the tourism promotion landscape through social media, travel marketplaces, and user-experience-based content. Visual, interactive, and rapidly disseminating digital information shapes destination images and influences traveler decisions. However, the lack of digital promotion standards allows for misleading promotional practices, visual manipulation, false testimonials, and exaggerated claims that have the potential to harm tourism consumers. This study aims to analyze the synchronization between the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) and the Tourism Law in overseeing digital tourism promotion. This study uses a normative juridical method with a legislative approach and a literature review of academic documents and related news. The research findings show that while both laws share the same goal of ensuring accurate and non-misleading information, neither provides specific technical standards for digital promotion. The ITE Law is general and does not specifically regulate tourism promotion, while the Tourism Law was drafted before social media became a primary tool for destination marketing. This has resulted in regulatory gaps and fragmented authority between the Ministry of Communication and Informatics, the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, BPKN, and BPSK. This research recommends the establishment of derivative regulations related to digital promotion, ethical content standards, advertising transparency, and an integrated cross-agency oversight mechanism to protect tourism consumers in the digital space.

Penelitian ini membahas akibat hukum dari penggunaan kuasa jual yang dipalsukan dalam proses balik nama sertipikat hak atas tanah oleh pihak ketiga yang bekerja sama dengan Pejabat Pembuat Akta Tanah (PPAT), sebagaimana tercermin dalam Putusan Pengadilan Negeri Jakarta Barat Nomor 249/Pid.B/2022/PN.Jkt.Brt. Permasalahan utama yang dikaji adalah bagaimana pertanggungjawaban pidana terhadap pelaku pemalsuan kuasa jual, kedudukan hukum sertipikat yang telah dibalik nama berdasarkan kuasa palsu, serta perlindungan hukum bagi pemilik tanah yang dirugikan. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, dan studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemalsuan kuasa jual untuk balik nama sertipikat merupakan tindak pidana yang menimbulkan konsekuensi hukum tidak hanya bagi pelaku utama, tetapi juga bagi PPAT yang lalai dalam menjalankan kewenangan jabatannya. Sertipikat yang telah dibalik nama berdasarkan akta palsu dapat dibatalkan demi hukum karena cacat administratif dan bertentangan dengan asas kepastian hukum. Pemilik berhak memperoleh perlindungan hukum berupa pemulihan hak atas tanah maupun ganti kerugian. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah pentingnya pengawasan terhadap pelaksanaan kewenangan PPAT serta kehati-hatian dalam proses balik nama sertipikat untuk menjamin kepastian dan perlindungan hukum dalam bidang pertanahan.

Penelitian ini membahas secara mendalam mengenai perlindungan hukum bagi nasabah dalam sengketa gadai syariah, khususnya yang berkaitan dengan pengembalian barang jaminan setelah pelunasan utang. Perkembangan industri gadai syariah di Indonesia yang sangat pesat menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kepercayaan masyarakat terhadap lembaga keuangan berbasis syariah. Namun, di sisi lain, dinamika ini juga memunculkan tantangan baru dalam aspek perlindungan konsumen, terutama ketika terjadi wanprestasi, kesalahan administrasi, atau kelalaian lembaga gadai dalam menjaga serta mengembalikan barang jaminan milik nasabah. Melalui pendekatan yuridis normatif dan studi kasus terhadap Putusan Pengadilan Agama Banjarmasin Nomor 1112/Pdt.G/2021/PA.Bjm, penelitian ini berupaya menganalisis bentuk tanggung jawab hukum lembaga gadai serta perlindungan yang seharusnya diterima oleh nasabah sebagai pihak yang dirugikan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa dalam perspektif hukum syariah, barang gadai (marhun) memiliki kedudukan hukum sebagai amanah yang wajib dijaga dengan penuh tanggung jawab oleh pihak penerima gadai (murtahin). Apabila lembaga gadai lalai dalam menjaga atau gagal mengembalikan barang tersebut, maka tindakan tersebut dapat dikategorikan sebagai wanprestasi sekaligus pelanggaran terhadap prinsip keadilan dan hak-hak konsumen. Perlindungan hukum terhadap nasabah diatur dalam berbagai peraturan, antara lain Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Perdata (KUHPerdata), Undang-Undang Nomor 8 Tahun 1999 tentang Perlindungan Konsumen, serta pengawasan yang dilakukan oleh Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK) terhadap lembaga keuangan syariah. Namun demikian, efektivitas implementasi peraturan tersebut masih menghadapi berbagai kendala, seperti lemahnya pengawasan, kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat mengenai hak-haknya, serta minimnya mekanisme penyelesaian sengketa yang cepat dan transparan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan penguatan sistem pengawasan serta edukasi hukum bagi masyarakat agar prinsip keadilan, kepastian hukum, dan kemaslahatan dalam transaksi gadai syariah dapat terwujud secara menyeluruh.

Fenomena pelajar yang mengendarai kendaraan bermotor tanpa Surat Izin Mengemudi (SIM) merupakan permasalahan yang mengancam keselamatan lalu lintas serta mencerminkan rendahnya kesadaran hukum remaja. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bagaimana pembelajaran Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan (PKN) mampu menginternalisasikan nilai-nilai hukum dalam membentuk sikap berkendara yang bertanggung jawab. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus di SMPN 1 Ciamis. Teknik pengumpulan data meliputi wawancara mendalam, observasi pembelajaran, dan penyebaran kuisioner kepada siswa, guru, dan orang tua. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun pembelajaran PKN telah memberikan pemahaman normatif terhadap hukum lalu lintas, namun masih terdapat kesenjangan antara pemahaman dan implementasi. Faktor lingkungan sosial, pola asuh orang tua, serta lemahnya pengawasan eksternal menjadi kendala utama. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan pendekatan pembelajaran yang kontekstual, kolaboratif, dan terintegrasi dengan berbagai pihak untuk mengoptimalkan internalisasi nilai hukum.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of the public sector accounting cycle in the planning, implementation, administration, and evaluation of catfish cultivation programs run by BUMDes Ajoeng Jaya as part of the village food security program. The focus of the research departs from the need to ensure that each stage of the management of the BUMDes program runs according to the principles of public accountability, considering that BUMDes is a strategic entity in the management of village resources to improve the welfare of the community. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach through field observation, in-depth interviews with the management of BUMDes Ajoeng Jaya, and a review of documentation related to catfish farming program activities and financial records. This approach allows researchers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the accounting practices applied as well as the various obstacles that arise during the implementation of food security programs. The results of the study show that the catfish cultivation program has failed due to weak internal supervision, the absence of SOPs, lack of financial recording and reporting, and lack of technical competence of managers. The implementation of the public sector accounting cycle has not been running optimally so that it is not able to support effective control and evaluation of programs. In addition, crop failures are exacerbated by theft by internal parties and the absence of a structured monitoring system throughout the program, which indicates weak governance and internal control. This study has limitations in the form of a small number of informants and a lack of formal documents, so the analysis—especially the financial aspect—cannot be generalized widely. Nevertheless, this study contributes by integrating the evaluation of food security programs through the implementation of the public sector accounting cycle and offering recommendations to improve the accountability, transparency, and sustainability of BUMDes programs.

This study aims to analyze how digitalization of governance, particularly through the implementation of e-financial reporting, digital audit trails, and cloud-based data security and reliability systems, contributes to increased transparency, accountability, and data protection in educational institutions. Using a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews and thematic analysis, this study reveals that digitalization can create a more objective, standardized, and difficult-to-manipulate control mechanism. The e-financial reporting system strengthens transparency through open processes and reduces opportunities for irregularities. Digital audit trails provide authentic evidence that facilitates the process of verification, monitoring, and tracking every administrative activity in real time. Meanwhile, data security supported by layered encryption, automatic backups, and emergency recovery access increases internal and external trust in the integrity of information systems. These findings indicate that digitalization not only provides technical tools but also forms a more disciplined, adaptive, and public accountability-oriented governance structure. This study broadens understanding of the relationship between digital technology and organizational culture and provides a theoretical foundation for developing a more reliable and sustainable information system-based educational governance model.

The development of the digital economy in Indonesia has driven various innovations in the financial services sector, including online lending services (PINJOL) and digital financial platforms. This phenomenon presents both opportunities and challenges for the national financial supervisory system. The Financial Services Authority (OJK), as the institution authorized to regulate and supervise financial services, is required to adapt its role to these dynamics. This study aims to examine the institutional challenges faced by the OJK in carrying out its supervisory function over online lending services and digital financial services in Indonesia. The methods used in this research are normative juridical, with a statute approach, legal theory and institutional theory (Conceptual approach), case approach, and a comparison of fintech supervisory models with those of other countries (Comparative approach). The results of this study are expected to provide an understanding of the OJK's institutional challenges and serve as evaluation material for formulating future digital financial supervisory policies. 

This study aims to analyze the role of the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) in supervising the implementation of road infrastructure development programs in Bintan Regency. Using a qualitative approach based on literature studies, this study examines how the DPRD carries out its supervisory function to ensure transparency, efficiency, and accountability in the implementation of infrastructure projects. The results of the study show that although the DPRD has a constitutional mandate to carry out supervision, its implementation still faces various challenges. These challenges include limited competent human resources, weak political will to follow up on supervisory findings, and suboptimal coordination between the executive and the legislature. This condition has an impact on the effectiveness of supervision and the quality of infrastructure development that has not fully met the principles of good governance. This research emphasizes the importance of increasing the institutional capacity of the DPRD through training, strengthening regulations, and utilizing information technology. In addition, public participation in the supervision process also needs to be increased as a form of constructive social control. Thus, the DPRD's supervision of infrastructure development can run more effectively and contribute to the creation of sustainable, transparent, and accountable regional development.

This study aims to determine the effect of communication and work discipline on employee performance through work supervision as an intervening variable at Jambi Ekspres Televisi. The population in this study consisted of 30 employees, all of whom were used as samples using the total sampling technique. This research employed a quantitative approach with a questionnaire based on a Likert scale, and the data were analyzed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method through the SmartPLS software. The results showed that communication and work discipline were categorized as good and played an important role in improving employee performance through work supervision. Communication had a positive and significant effect on work supervision, while work discipline also had a positive and significant effect on work supervision. However, communication had a positive but insignificant effect on employee performance. Conversely, work discipline had a positive and significant direct effect on employee performance. Meanwhile, work supervision had a negative and insignificant effect on employee performance. The indirect effects of communication and work discipline on performance through work supervision were also negative and insignificant, indicating that work supervision has not yet played an optimal role as an intervening variable. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the company enhance internal communication effectiveness, strengthen the consistent implementation of work discipline, and optimize the role of work supervision to function more as a coaching and motivational tool, thereby contributing positively to improving employee performance.

This study examines the strategic role of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) of the Republic of Indonesia in ensuring transparent, accountable, and aligned state financial management in line with national goals. As an independent state institution, the BPK has a constitutional mandate to audit state financial management and accountability objectively and free from intervention by any party. This study uses a legal method with a normative juridical approach, accompanied by descriptive analysis and systematic interpretation of data from literature studies. The results show that the BPK has broad authority in auditing state finances, both for the central government, regional governments, and other public institutions. However, its implementation still faces obstacles such as a lack of internal transparency, overlap with internal government oversight, and limited resources for comprehensive oversight. To address these issues, the BPK needs to strengthen its internal systems, increase auditor capacity, develop more systematic audit result reporting guidelines, and build cross-agency coordination to make its external oversight function more effective, transparent, and capable of supporting clean and integrated governance.

This study examines the evolution of the notary supervision system in Indonesia, particularly the impact of Constitutional Court Decision No. 49/PUU-X/2012 which revoked Article 66 paragraph (1) of Law No. 30 of 2004 and the establishment of the Notary Honorary Council (MKN) through Law No. 2 of 2014. The study uses a normative juridical method with a case and statutory approach, supported by literature analysis and expert opinion. The results show that the Constitutional Court decision eliminated legal protection for notaries in facing arbitrary actions by law enforcement officers, creating inequality with other professions such as advocates and doctors. Although the Regional Supervisory Council (MPD) still exists institutionally, the authority to grant approval for summoning notaries has been lost. In response, the government established the MKN which combines elements of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights with the Indonesian Notaries Association. International comparisons show that the civil law system provides stronger protection through specialized courts, while common law does not provide a privileged position for notaries. Indonesia adopts a mixed model that provides flexibility but creates coordination complexity. The MKN plays a role in enforcing professional ethics while maintaining a balance between the protection of notaries as public officials who make authentic deeds and accountability in the judicial system, restoring the stability of legal protection that was lost after the Constitutional Court's decision.

This study aims to analyze the influence of motivation, work discipline, and supervision on the work effectiveness of civil servants (ASN) at the Kediri Regency Trade Office. The research employed a quantitative approach with an associative design. The population consisted of 55 civil servants, all of whom were included as the sample using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed through validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and the coefficient of determination (R²). The results revealed that motivation, work discipline, and supervision each had a positive and significant partial effect on work effectiveness. Simultaneously, the three variables also had a significant effect on work effectiveness. The coefficient of determination (R²) value of 0.488 indicates that motivation, work discipline, and supervision explain 48.8% of the variation in work effectiveness, while the remaining 51.2% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening motivation, enforcing consistent work discipline, and implementing effective supervision to enhance civil servants’ work effectiveness.

This study aims to analyze the influence of performance appraisal, supervision, and non-physical work environment on employee performance at PT Pos Indonesia (Persero) Kediri Branch Office. A quantitative approach was employed with saturated sampling, in which all 64 employees were included as respondents. The research instrument was a questionnaire based on validated theoretical and empirical indicators. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and the coefficient of determination. The findings indicate that, partially, performance appraisal, supervision, and non-physical work environment have a positive and significant effect on employee performance. Simultaneously, these three variables contribute 70% to the variation in employee performance, with the non-physical work environment being the most dominant factor. These results highlight the importance of integrating transparent performance appraisal systems, consistent supervision, and a supportive organizational climate to improve employee productivity. This research contributes academically by reinforcing the Goal Setting theory and Perceived Organizational Support, and provides practical implications for PT Pos Indonesia’s human resource management.

The role of notary organizations is critical in the continuous development and supervision of the notary's position, especially concerning personal behavior, both in carrying out office duties and in daily life. The notary profession holds a significant position in the legal framework of society as it produces authentic deeds that carry the highest probative value. As such, integrity and professional ethics are foundational principles in the execution of notarial duties. This research aims to analyze the role of notary organizations, specifically the Indonesian Notary Association (INI) in Sleman Regency, in reinforcing professional ethics and maintaining the quality of legal services for the public. The research employs a normative-sociological approach, utilizing studies of legal regulations, notary electronic codes, and interviews with INI Sleman administrators. The findings indicate that notary organizations contribute through (1) socializing ethical codes and professional standards, (2) conducting internal supervision through honorary councils, (3) providing ethical sanctions for violations, and (4) offering development programs and capacity-building initiatives for members. However, the study also identifies several challenges, including limited supervisory resources, resistance from some members, and a lack of public understanding regarding the importance of professional ethics. These obstacles hinder the full potential of notary organizations in ensuring professional conduct and upholding the quality of notarial services. The research underscores the need for stronger collaboration and awareness to address these issues.

Parole is an important instrument in the social reintegration of inmates, with the Correctional Center (Bapas) playing a role in guidance, assistance, and supervision. This study analyzes the implementation of supervision by the Class I Correctional Center in Bandar Lampung for parole clients, as well as the obstacles encountered. The research employs a normative juridical and empirical approach, using both primary and secondary data, with sources including the Head of the Adult Client Guidance Section and a Criminal Law Lecturer at the University of Lampung. The findings indicate that supervision has been optimal, with no cases of parole revocation. The main obstacles include the absence of clear administrative sanctions, limited authority, weak law enforcement, inadequate facilities and technology, lack of inter-agency coordination, low public participation, and unsupportive client behavior. Improvements in regulations, enhancement of human resources quality, provision of adequate facilities, and strengthening community involvement are required to support the success of social reintegration
