Abstract

Anak sebagai manusia yang tergolong dalam kelompok rentan membutuhkan perlindungan dalam masa tumbuh kembangnya, salah satunya perlindungan dari perkawinan di bawah umur. Ironisnya, Indonesia sedang berada pada kondisi darurat perkawinan di bawah umur. Secara normatif, UU Perlindungan Anak menempatkan peran orang tua untuk mencegah anak dari perkawinan di bawah umur. Di sisi lain, UU Perkawinan mempermudah perkawinan di bawah umur melalui hak orang tua mengajukan dispensasi nikah. Maka, secara normatif terdapat dualisme peran orang tua dalam perlindungan anak dari perkawinan di bawah umur. Artikel ini mengkaji pertentangan antara norma dispensasi nikah dan norma kewajiban orang tua mencegah perkawinan di bawah umur serta kebijakan hukum pidana terhadap perlindungan anak dari perkawinan di bawah umur perspektif UU Perlindungan Anak. Berdasarkan kajian literatur, norma dispensasi nikah yang menempatkan orang tua sebagai pemohon dispensasi nikah bertentangan dengan peran orang tua untuk mencegah perkawinan di bawah umur dalam upaya perlindungan anak. Hal ini dikarenakan perkawinan di bawah umur merupakan praktik yang harus dicegah karena menempatkan anak pada kondisi yang berbahaya dan melanggar hak-hak anak. Sementara itu, kebijakan hukum pidana terhadap anak dari perkawinan di bawah umur dalam UU Perlindungan Anak tidak diakomodasi secara tegas dan khusus. Artikel ini berakhir dengan saran untuk mengatur perlindungan anak dari perkawinan di bawah umur secara tegas dan khusus dalam UU Perkawinan dan UU Perlindungan Anak. Kata Kunci: Kebijakan Hukum Pidana, Perkawinan di Bawah Umur, Perlindungan Anak.

Abstract

This paper aims to revisit the procedures for internal dispute resolution of political parties through political party courts. Reformulation is the stage of law enforcement in abstracto by the legislature or is limited to the formulation of provisions and substances that will be regulated in law in accordance with the situation and conditions, both present and future. The political party court is an important institution in the law enforcement process that has a mixed-function, namely as a regulator, administrator, and even adjudicator with a quasi-judicial nature. Internal dispute resolution brought to the political party court is to ensure the freedom of political parties, as well as to limit government interference which can lock in the freedom and role of political parties as one of the institutions needed to exercise people's sovereignty. Thus, it is urgent to have the idea of ​​reformulating the procedural arrangements of the political party court which are in accordance with the principles of justice and can be accounted for. This is an answer to the problems of political party disputes so that these dispute cases can be accommodated through strict and perfect regulations.KEYWORDS: Reformulation, Political Party Court, Dispute Resolution, Political Parties.

Abstract

Land acquisition for public purposes is an activity intended for the public interest that uses community land. To be able to carry out development in the public interest, the government uses state land. If state land is not sufficient or cannot maximize development, the government can use land from individuals or groups by carrying out the land acquisition. In implementing land acquisition, the land acquisition team must pay attention to the rights of the people affected by land acquisition. Irregularities that often occur in the implementation of land acquisition are related to discrimination, intimidation, and violence. These rights are included in human rights, which must be upheld and protected because this is closely related to property rights. Human rights give an understanding that the right to own something is the right of every citizen, including the right to own land is one of the human rights inherent in each person per person in groups. While property rights must not be taken arbitrarily and against the law, such matters are regulated in Article 28H of the 1945 Constitution. This paper concludes that the construction activities of the New Yogyakarta International Airport (NYIA) carried out violated human rights; this is because the land acquisition team has committed violence, discrimination, and violence against the people affected by land acquisition. The form of legal protection provided by the government is proper compensation.

Abstract

Globalization has offered a multitude of opportunities and challenges, mainly when it deals with copyright. The scope of copyright has been broad, encompassing various aspects of life, especially in literature and education. This study aims to analyze Indonesia's copyright issues, particularly regarding the reproduction of books deemed to have lesser protection for authors, dealing with the fair use doctrine. This doctrine considers that work is allowed to a limited extent for use by other parties without the creator or copyright holder's permission to keep it fair. This fair use doctrine permits limited and fair use of literary works for specific purposes without royalty payments and the author's consent. Given the author's more protection, this study then displays a comparative analysis of the U.S. framework on the Copyright Act portrayed into two main discussions. First, this study will discuss photocopying for educational purposes from the lens of Indonesia's Copyright Act. Second, this study considers the possible adjustment to adopt the so-called future concept of restrictions for educational purposes from the U.S. States Copyright Act 1976. KEYWORDS: Fair Use Doctrine, Copyright Act, Copyright for Educational Purposes.

Abstract

The issue of citizenship is one part of the study of state studies or commonly referred to as State Administration Law. One element of state existence is citizenship (algemene staatslehre). In the context of citizenship, the issue of citizenship is critical because, in general, the state consists of three elements, namely the territory, people who are identical with citizens, and sovereign government as a constitutive element and the recognition of other countries as declarative elements. Every citizen must have citizenship because it is an essential thing. After all, citizenship has a close relationship between the citizen and the country in which the citizen lives. These matters relate to citizens related to identity, rights, obligations, participation or participation, and shared social ownership. In addition, with citizenship, citizens automatically have legal protection wherever they are. Having two citizenships is no longer a taboo for citizens and is likely to continue to develop in the future. The fact is that there are citizens aged 18 years or over who have dual citizenship, even though the ownership of dual citizenship should be limited. One of the rights of every citizen is the right to be elected and elected. However, there are still citizens who have dual citizenship. Because of dual citizenship, approaching the General Election confuses citizens of those who have dual citizenship but still wants to fulfill their rights in electing potential national leaders and also the right to lead Indonesia. Keywords: Political Rights, Citizenship, Dual Citizenship.
