The increasing number of juveniles encountering the legal system in Indonesia underscores the need for a more effective approach within the juvenile criminal justice system (SPPA). Restorative Justice (RJ) has been adopted as an alternative to the conventional punitive-oriented judicial system. However, the implementation of RJ in Indonesia continues to face several challenges, including a lack of understanding among law enforcement officers, limited rehabilitation facilities, and minimal victim participation in the resolution process. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of RJ in resolving juvenile criminal offenses in Indonesia while identifying the challenges and strategies for improving its implementation. The research employs a normative and empirical legal approach, utilizing case studies of juvenile offenses resolved through RJ. Data is collected through interviews with law enforcement officials, victims, and offenders, as well as an analysis of relevant regulations, such as Law No. 11 of 2012 on the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. Findings reveal that over the past five years, the average success rate of RJ in resolving juvenile cases in Indonesia has reached 60%, with a 45% reduction in recidivism rates compared to the formal judicial system. However, obstacles such as inadequate legal training for law enforcement personnel and limited rehabilitation facilities remain significant challenges in RJ implementation. This study contributes to policy reform discussions on juvenile justice in Indonesia by recommending capacity-building initiatives for legal practitioners and strengthening victim engagement mechanisms in the RJ process. Additionally, it highlights the need for increased investment in rehabilitation infrastructure and further research into the application of RJ in addressing the rising cases of cyber-related offenses among juveniles

The supervision and enforcement of the advocate code of ethics in Indonesia continue to face various challenges, impacting the effectiveness of the existing regulatory framework. The number of ethical violations committed by advocates has been increasing, from 120 cases in 2018 to 345 cases in 2023, with the most prevalent infractions including conflicts of interest, abuse of authority, and gratification. One of the primary factors contributing to the weak enforcement of the code of ethics is the limited oversight system, which remains confined to advocate organizations without the involvement of independent institutions. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the advocate supervision system in Indonesia, compare it with best practices in other countries, and identify measures that can be implemented to enhance accountability and transparency within the profession. The research employs a normative legal method with a comparative law approach and empirical studies. The analysis is conducted on existing regulations, case reports on violations, and interviews with key stakeholders, including advocates, clients, and legal observers. The findings reveal that only 40% of reported violations result in strict sanctions, while merely 10% of advocates found guilty of ethical misconduct face license revocation. Additionally, a survey of 500 respondents indicates that only 35% of the public is aware of the complaint procedures against advocates who breach ethical standards, highlighting the low level of transparency in the supervision system. This study contributes to the discourse by recommending the establishment of an independent institution to oversee advocates' compliance with ethical standards, as well as the increased utilization of digital technology in the supervision system. With more transparent and accountable oversight reforms, it is expected that ethical violations within the legal profession can be minimized, thereby strengthening public trust in Indonesia’s legal system

Online Gender-Based Violence (OGBV) is an escalating phenomenon in Indonesia, driven by the advancement of digital technology, which enables perpetrators to commit various forms of gender-based violence through online platforms. Data from the National Commission on Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan) indicate a sharp rise in OGBV cases, from 1,200 cases in 2018 to 8,500 cases in 2023, suggesting that existing regulations remain insufficient in providing adequate protection for victims. This study aims to analyze the challenges in the criminalization of OGBV in Indonesia and to evaluate the effectiveness of existing regulations, particularly the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) and the Indonesian Penal Code (KUHP). A juridical approach with qualitative analysis is employed, incorporating an examination of current regulations, case studies of court rulings, and interviews with victims and law enforcement officials. The findings reveal that sanctions imposed on perpetrators remain relatively lenient, with only 18% of reported cases being processed by law enforcement, and less than 6% resulting in convictions. Furthermore, existing regulations do not comprehensively address the various forms of OGBV, making it challenging for victims to seek justice. This study underscores the necessity for a more specific and gender-sensitive revision of criminal law to enhance victim protection. The findings are expected to serve as a foundation for policymakers in formulating more effective regulations to combat OGBV in Indonesia.

Land disputes within indigenous law communities remain a complex and evolving issue in Indonesia. Although customary law is recognized within the national legal framework, its implementation continues to face various challenges, including limited formal recognition and overlapping agrarian regulations. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of customary law in resolving land disputes, compare it with national litigation mechanisms, and identify factors influencing its application. Employing both empirical and normative legal approaches, this research utilizes in-depth interviews, observations, and legal document analysis. The study sample includes customary leaders, agrarian officials, law enforcement officers, and disputing community members. Findings indicate that 75% of the 100 land dispute cases examined were successfully resolved through customary mechanisms, whereas only 30% of cases reached resolution through national litigation. Additionally, the average time required for dispute resolution under customary law was approximately four months, significantly shorter than the three to five years typically needed for litigation. Key factors supporting the effectiveness of customary law include the flexibility of deliberative mechanisms, high community compliance, and a restorative justice approach. However, the implementation of customary law still faces challenges regarding legal legitimacy, external interventions, and the lack of regulatory support to accommodate indigenous dispute resolution mechanisms. Therefore, more inclusive policies are needed to integrate customary law into the national legal system, creating a more effective and equitable dispute resolution framework

In the digital era, the widespread use of social media has led to a significant rise in cyberbullying cases, which have severe psychological, social, and legal consequences for victims. In Indonesia, the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) regulates cyberbullying; however, its implementation faces numerous challenges. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of legal protection for cyberbullying victims in Indonesia and identify the challenges in enforcing existing regulations. Employing a juridical approach with qualitative analysis, this research examines relevant legal frameworks and conducts interviews with victims, legal practitioners, and law enforcement officials. Additionally, secondary data from official reports and court decisions are analyzed to understand the enforcement patterns of cyberbullying cases. Findings indicate that reported cyberbullying cases increased from 800 in 2018 to 3,800 in 2023, with the majority occurring on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram. However, only 20% of these reports were acted upon by authorities, and merely 5% resulted in legal consequences for perpetrators. Key obstacles in law enforcement include difficulties in identifying perpetrators using anonymous identities, lack of coordination between social media platforms and law enforcement agencies, and low public awareness regarding reporting mechanisms. This study contributes to policy recommendations aimed at strengthening legal protection for cyberbullying victims. These include regulatory reforms, increased digital literacy initiatives, and the optimization of technology in mitigating cyberbullying in Indonesia

The rapid development of big data has significantly increased the risk of personal data breaches in Indonesia, highlighting the need for stricter regulations to safeguard personal information. Although Law No. 27 of 2022 on Personal Data Protection (UU PDP) has been enacted, its implementation still faces several challenges, including weak oversight mechanisms and low corporate compliance. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the UU PDP in providing legal protection for personal data in Indonesia and compare it with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union. Using a normative legal approach and comparative legal methodology, this research examines Indonesia’s data protection regulations and contrasts them with international standards. Findings indicate that more than 60% of companies in Indonesia have not yet fully complied with the UU PDP, while cases of data breaches have increased significantly. Major incidents include the leakage of 279 million BPJS Kesehatan user records in 2021 and 91 million Tokopedia user records in 2020. Additionally, 75% of Indonesian internet users remain skeptical about the security of their data in digital transactions. Compared to the GDPR, the UU PDP still has weaknesses in terms of enforcement and sanctions. While the GDPR imposes fines of up to 4% of a company’s global revenue for violations, the UU PDP still imposes relatively low penalties. This study contributes to policy recommendations aimed at strengthening the implementation of the UU PDP, including the establishment of an independent authority responsible for personal data protection and the enhancement of penalties for violators

According to the Indonesian Internet Service Providers Association (APJII) in 2018, approximately 49.52% of all internet users in Indonesia are aged between 19 and 34 years, with the majority of this age group being students. Prolonged computer use can lead to higher levels of asthenopia compared to other types of work. This study aims to examine the correlation between computer usage duration and the occurrence of asthenopia among students. A correlational design with a cross-sectional approach was employed in this study. A total of 76 participants were included, and data were collected via a questionnaire distributed online using Google Forms, which the respondents completed. The collected data were then analyzed univariately and bivariately using SPSS software. The results indicate that the majority of respondents experienced mild asthenopia, with a percentage of 78.9%. Statistical analysis showed no significant relationship between gender, duration of computer use, eye break intervals, history of major eye diseases, and medication consumption with the occurrence of asthenopia (p>0.05). However, a significant relationship was found between age and the occurrence of asthenopia (p<0.05).

Adolescence is an important developmental phase for individuals. During this phase, teenagers require direct interaction with their environment. However, faceto-face interactions have decreased due to the rise of social media. One of the social media platforms that can be used is Instagram. Instagram offers engaging features such as photo and video sharing, allowing teenagers to express themselves. The process through which teenagers express themselves on social media is called selfpresentation. Teenagers’ self-presentation can be positive, authentic, or negative, inauthentic, and is influenced by their self-esteem. Therefore, this study aims to explore the relationship between self-esteem and self-presentation among Instagram users. This research employs a quantitative method with 337 adolescent Instagram users as respondents. The analysis technique used is multiple correlation testing. The findings indicate a positive relationship between self-esteem and selfpresentation among Instagram users, with the relationship between self-esteem and real self-presentation showing the strongest contribution, with a correlation coefficient of 0.573. This suggests that the higher the self-esteem, the more positive the self-presentation by the teenage Instagram users. The implications of this study are that teenagers' self-esteem can enhance their self-presentation in a positive way, aligned with their true selves.
