Institutional investors play a significant role as corporate monitors in protecting the public investors’ money and improving corporate financial performance.

Their strong market position was achieved quickly, facilitated by innovation advantages such as indirect network effects and algorithm-based analysis of users’ past data. Ultimately, data has become a barrier for potential competitors to entering the market. Simultaneously, the incumbents or the dominant market holders likely to use a technology-based strategy by keeping access …

Unravel Persistent Land Tenure Insecurity Behind Indonesia’S Palm Oil Industry: Study Case Kinipan Indigenous Community In Central Kalimantan., Widya Naseva Tuslian

Indonesia Law Review

This paper argues that legal pluralism within the context of state law contributes to tenure insecurity experienced by indigenous communities behind the palm oil industry in Indonesia. The palm oil industry is an industry that contributes significantly to Indonesia's economy and is a mainstay of national export. However, this industry is also renowned for bringing multidimensional issues such as ecological problems, biodiversity crises, and land conflict with existing inhabitants, particularly indigenous groups. The latter issue is peculiar in Indonesia's palm oil industries as, in many cases, palm oil projects overlapped with indigenous people's forest land or places where they reside. …

Corruption In Match-Fixing Within Sports: The Need To Regulate Future Legislation (A Comparative Study And Lesson From The Australian System Of Law), Ranto Sabungan Silalahi

Indonesia Law Review

The Indonesian football league has been devastated greatly because of match-fixing, a problem that has caused the decline of the country’s achievements in international events. The ongoing mechanism of using sports law or lex sportiva is considered ineffective because it provides no deterrent effect on offenders. The country may learn from Australia, who has gained many international sports achievements by previously eradicating match-fixing in sports, including football. Australia has included match-fixing among acts of sports corruption, and offenders may be sanctioned both by receiving criminal punishment from a law authority and disciplinary sanction from a sport or football authority.

A New Role Of Causation Theory Towards Achieving Economic Contractual Equilibrium: Monitoring The Economic Equilibrium Of The Contract, Osama Ismail Amayreh, Izura Masdina Mohamed Zakri, Pardis Moslemzadeh Tehrani, Yousef Mohammad Shandi

Indonesia Law Review

The phrase “who says contractual, says justice” “qui dit contractuel dit juste” does not fully express the truth of our present reality, where the phrase itself falls into doubt, since the contract does not always result in fair obligations, as the contract is an expression of often unequal wills. In this regard, the French judiciary realized that the absence of justice in the contract might arise as a result of the contractual freedom afforded to the contracting parties and, thus, they developed the idea of Commutative Justice in the contract, such as the Piller’s decision, which is considered one of …

Implementing The Extraterritoriality Principle To Strengthen Competition Law Enforcement In Indonesia In The Aec Era: A Comparative Study, Muhammad Rifky Wicaksono, Kusuma Raditya, Laurensia Andrini, Muhammad Hawin

Indonesia Law Review

The regional economic integration that ensues from the ASEAN Economy Community will provide its members not only with boundless opportunities for economic growth, but also with unprecedented challenges. The demands of a more interconnected regional economy would require the Indonesian government, as guardians of the competitive process in the Indonesian market, to protect it from anticompetitive conduct caused from both within and outside of its borders. However, there is a major gap since Indonesia’s current competition law does not provide KPPU with the jurisdiction to investigate, prosecute or punish violations committed by business actors located outside of Indonesia’s territory. Thus, …

Social Engineering Through Shari’A: Islamic Law And State-Directed Da’Wa In Contemporary Aceh, R. Michael Feener Dec 2013

Social Engineering Through Shari’A: Islamic Law And State-Directed Da’Wa In Contemporary Aceh, R. Michael Feener

Indonesia Law Review

This study of the contemporary Islamic legal system in Aceh, Indonesia argues for new attention to be paid to the ways in which contemporary Muslim agendas for the implementation of Islamic law can be read as projects for future oriented social transformation—rather than as a series of reactive measures to perceived ‘crises of modernity’ and/or the political machinations of rival elites in contesting control of state power. In doing so it highlights the ways in which the ideals of, and institutional formations developed by, proponents of Islamic law are configured in relation to a broad range of non-Muslim modernist projects, …


Contract Law In A Comparative Perspective, Suharnoko Suharnoko Aug 2012

Contract Law In A Comparative Perspective, Suharnoko Suharnoko

Indonesia Law Review

Media reports on cases of the theft of pre-paid pulses taking place nowadays have created a misunderstanding in terms of the appropriate application of criminal law. In the context of existing legal provisions concerning consumer protection as set forth both under the Consumer Protection Law as well as in part under the Telecommunications Law, law enforcement agencies are leaning towards applying general criminal provisions (theft) which, after a careful observation of the Indonesian Criminal Code, in fact do not extend to corporate criminal acts. This paper purports to explain that the currently occurring cases of the theft of pre-paid pulses …

Since eradicating corruption having been continously encouraged by late governments – and until now – , there would not be less important as to retracting the corrupted assets.
