Kebebasan Beragama Dan Berkeyakinan Dalam Negara Hukum Indonesia: Dualisme Tafsir Konseptual Dan Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi, Dixon Sanjaya, Akhlish Aulia Rahim

Jurnal Konstitusi & Demokrasi

Religious life in Indonesian state of law is still faced with friction and instability. This is due to dualism of interpretation of constitutional norms, differences in human rights perspectives on the freedom of religion and belief, and conflicts over statutory regulations. This research analyzes the concept of freedom of religion and belief (Religious Freedom) by conceptually exploring the discourse on relationship between religion and state and mapping the Constitutional Court's decision on commitment of the Religious Freedom. Normative juridical research is carried out using case, historical, and conceptual approaches. The finding is that relationship between state and religion is conceptually …

Analisa Yuridis Independensi Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi Sebagai Lembaga Ekstra Konstitusional Dalam Sistem Ketatanegaraan Indonesia, Alchansyah Farida

Jurnal Konstitusi & Demokrasi

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) was formed as a follow-up to the mandate of Article 43 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Corruption Crimes. The Corruption Eradication Commission exists as an answer to the less than optimal performance of the Police and Prosecutor's Office in eradicating corruption. Apart from that, the Corruption Eradication Commission exists as an independent state institution (not tied to any authority, be it executive, legislative or judiciary). However, after the enactment of Law Number 19 of 2019 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 30 of 2002 concerning the Corruption Eradication Commission, …

This research was conducted to see how the constitutions of countries in the world, especially in 25 countries in the Asian continent (11 Southeast Asian countries, 7 …

Kompetensi Absolut Dan Aktivisme Yudisial Dalam Peran Mahkamah Agung Menguji Anggaran Dasar Partai Politik Di Indonesia, Denis Kurniawan

Jurnal Konstitusi & Demokrasi

This article examines the necessity for the Supreme Court to extend its absolute competence in conducting judicial reviews (right to judicial review) of the Articles of Association and/or Bylaws of Political Parties, which serve as the object of review (objectum litis). This article was prepared by doctrinal research methods. Political parties are institutions that are known for their existence, authority, and constitutional dissolution through the 1945 Constitution. As such, the Articles of Association and Bylaws of Political Parties can be defined as regulations that are established by a Political Party based on orders from higher legal norms, namely the law. …

New Challenges To Judicial Federalism, James A. Gardner

Journal Articles

The theory of judicial federalism holds that state constitutions are jurisprudentially independent from the U.S. Constitution, and that state supreme courts consequently may, and often should, interpret state constitutions differently from how the U.S. Supreme Court interprets the federal Constitution. As the U.S. Supreme Court increasingly turns back to the states important decisions of constitutional policy, such as the scope of reproductive rights or the nature and content of limitations on partisan gerrymandering, state constitutional law looms ever larger as a potential ground for resolution of these issues.

The conditions for a revival of judicial federalism today, however, are far …

Perubahan Paradigma Dalam Penyusunan Rencana Detail Tata Ruang Yang Berkelanjutan Dan Menjamin Kepastian Hukum Pasca Politik Hukum Cipta Kerja Di Indonesia, Maret Priyanta, Cut Sabina Anasya Zulkarnain

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

The amendment to the RDTR enactment in Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning the Enactment of Government Regulations in Lieu of Law Number 2 of 2022 concerning Job Creation into Law is aimed at ensuring the essence of hierarchy and the operationalization of general plans runs in accordance with the concept of plan hierarchy. Previously, equality of enactment forms were applied by the principle of lex specialis derogat legi generalis, which essentially caused the RDTR to be able to correct RTRW content material due to the equality of the enactment forms. In practice, the synergy of the position and content …

Perlindungan Hukum Bagi Pers Dalam Melaksanakan Kebebasan Pers Di Indonesia Dan Australia, Roshita Anggun Trisnaningrum, Adhitya Widya Kartika

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

The press and democratic life are two inseparable things. The existence of the press has a crucial role in conveying information, providing education to the public, and as a means of social control. Freedom of the press is not only recognized internationally, but every country is obliged to provide legal protection for it. The urgency of this research from a constitutional law perspective is that the press is the fourth pillar of democracy (the fourth of estate). This issue is discussed to discover the similarities and differences in press law provisions between Indonesia and Australia as well as to improve, …

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

After the relocation of the National Capital to the Nusantara, Jakarta has a new role as the National Economic Center and Global City.

At the conceptual level, the regulation and management of Jakarta's special authority apply the types of administrative decentralization, political decentralization, and fiscal decentralization.

Going Cashless: Privacy Implications For Gun Control In A Digital Economy, Liza Goldenberg

The Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship & the Law

This paper will examine how, given the United States’ shift toward a cashless economy, the country’s top credit-card companies’ potential decision to implement a new merchant code for firearm-related transactions as a method of gun control will backfire, jeopardizing consumer privacy and leading to unregulated transactions through cryptocurrencies. Since the majority of gun violence stems from firearm transactions not involving credit cards, credit-card companies should abandon the new merchant code that dissuades Americans from exercising their fundamental rights. The American economy should focus on slowing the shift toward a digital economy so that federal and state governments can implement legislation …

Genocide Memorialization Through Law In Bosnia And Herzegovina: Reconciling The Irreconcilable?, Carna Pistan

Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal

This article focuses on the law banning genocide denial and other war crimes and the glorification of convicted war criminals imposed in Bosnia and Herzegovina by the former High Representative Valentin Inzko in mid-2021 to facilitate the country’s reconciliation process. It first positions the genocide denial ban into the vast category of memory laws by examining its content and scope, as well as the reactions and consequences it has provoked up to now. The article maintains that an internationally imposed memory law cannot create reconciliation in a deeply divided society. It shows, on the contrary, that the imposed legislation has …

Regulatory Takings In Climate Change: Geo- Engineering One’S Way Around The Fifth Amendment, Noah Chase

Fordham Environmental Law Review

Picture yourself as the owner of a small business located in the downtown area of a large city; your business consists of a shop and an adjoining parking lot. A new regulation has just been passed which requires any owner of property within the city limits to paint all roofs and parking areas with a new reflective coating, in order to reduce the heat which is absorbed by such structures. The idea of closing your business down for this time, along with other connected issues, scares you, and you begin to wonder if your local government truly has your best …

Arizona V. Navajo Nation And Systemic Failures In The Tribal Water Allocation Scheme, Jennifer Horkovich

Fordham Environmental Law Review

When the United States Supreme Court’s decision in Arizona v. Navajo Nation was published in June 2023, Indian Country was hardly surprised with the Court’s ruling. There, the Court found that the United States had no affirmative duty to affirmatively protect the Navajo Nation’s water rights under the 1868 Treaty.1 The Court was clear: the treaty is insufficient for the Navajo’s current water needs, but the judiciary is unable to step in to find relief.2 This decision is another in a long series of cases on water allocation and the federal reserved water right, where tribes have been unable to …

Environmental Protection, Sustainability And The Prevention Of Satellite Collisions In Outer Space, Yun Zhao

Fordham Environmental Law Review

With space commercialization and privatization continuing apace, more space objects are expected to be launched and put into operation in the future, adding to the already large number of defunct satellites and space debris present in outer space. Hence, serious study should be devoted to possible mechanisms for dealing with potential collisions in outer space for the purpose of realizing environmental protection and space sustainability. In view of the inadequacy of the existing legal regime, this article explores possible such mechanisms (including a preventive mechanism, avoidance mechanism and compensation mechanism) from the perspective of interdependence theory and puts forward a …

State-Sanctioned Slavery: The Political Economy Of Prison Labor, Avneet Sidhu

University Honors Theses

This thesis explores the interconnected relationship between the political institution of government and economic development with a particular focus on the United States Constitution’s role in explicitly legalizing coerced carceral labor and the direct impact this has on various economic aspects. The Thirteenth Amendment of the Constitution has long been hailed as a guiding light of freedom and justice, and yet, still to this day, it contains a paradoxical loophole that explicitly permits involuntary servitude as punishment for crime. This exemption has long been exploited in order to perpetuate a system of state-sanctioned slavery, in which incarcerated laborers are exploited …

The Second Amendment’S Domestic Violence Problem: How Rahimi Exposes The Flaws Of Bruen’S Problematic Historical Analogue Test, Conner Greene

Cleveland State Law Review

This Article exposes the flaws of the Supreme Court’s historical analogue test established in Bruen. It details how modern Second Amendment jurisprudence evolved to a tenuous position through Heller and McDonald where the Supreme Court seemingly acknowledged the applicability of means-end scrutiny to the Second Amendment, before the Supreme Court more recently repudiated its use in Bruen in lieu of an inherently flimsy history-only standard that fails to account for modern societal issues. This approach not only severely undermines modern gun regulations—unanimously upheld as constitutional pre-Bruen—but it elevates the Second Amendment to a special status unlike other …

Washington V. Glucksberg’S Original Meaning, Marc Spindelman

Cleveland State Law Review

This Article elaborates and defends Washington v. Glucksberg’s original meaning both on its own terms and against accounts of Glucksberg that depict it as having announced and followed a strict test of history and tradition as its basic approach to Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process rights.

The nominal occasion for the present return to Glucksberg and its original meaning is the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Dobbs famously insists that Glucksberg supplies it with the authoritative grounds in the Court’s Fourteenth Amendment substantive due process jurisprudence for its own history-and-tradition-based approach to Roe v. …
