The outbreak of Covid-19 is an international crisis that has been unprecedented for the past hundred years. The virus was first reported in Wuhan, China, in late 2019 and gradually spread worldwide. In such circumstances, the effectiveness of international law in protecting human lives and promoting the right to health has been severely tested. More importantly, in the words of Michel Bachelet (A UN official), the Covid-19 has become a benchmark for the international community. This article will analyze how international law deals with the Covid-19 crisis in several areas: First, the World Health Organization’s role as the main body responsible for protecting human healthcare in the face of the Covid-19 outbreak will be analyzed. Second, the international responsibility of States in guaranteeing the right to health will be assessed to determine the effectiveness of international law. Third, the suspension of human rights abuses due to the Covid-19 outbreak emergency will be tested in the international human rights system. Finally, the performance of the UN Security Council in dealing with this pandemic is examined. In each area, the question is to what extent the current structure of international law effectively deals with international crises and preserves human dignity.

Homo Sapiens have a distinct characteristic of being superior to other creatures. They owe this superiority not only because they have the power to reason and rationalize but also because they have a tendency to organize themselves as a congregation, which can work in a group at a large scale. The human instinct to improvise on its own inventions, have today resulted in mutation of a world from the stage of abacus to the era of Robotics. For the sake of avoiding chaos and maintaining the sovereignty, every nation strives to eradicate the fear of dominance by the selected elite and hence the need of regulations and the law. The aim of the paper is to highlight the grey areas and limitations existent in Information Technology Laws and focusing on the emerging domains of cyberspace. Its also aims to draw the attention by the policymakers and the legislators to understand the need for amending the Information Technology Act, 2000 for including legal provisions related to emerging issues in cyber space. The analytical research method is used to collect the data based on a systematic review of the existing sources of information and involved qualitative research to analyze the information. The conclusion and suggestions of this paper will definitely be helpful in either drafting or amending a comprehensive law relating to IT keeping in view the evolving technologies and their applications.

This article aims to analyze Indonesia's efforts to accommodate national interests in efforts to handle refugees in Indonesia. UNHCR noted that until December 2020 the number of refugees in Indonesia reached 13,700 people, with the most refugees coming from Afghanistan 57%, Somalia 10%, and Myanmar 7%. This number is very large considering the fact that Indonesia is only a transit country and not a country that ratified the 1951 Refugee Covenant. The existence of refugees in Indonesia is an urgent problem by taking advantage from human rights as the basis of its justification, while Indonesia is a sovereign country that has the authority to regulate the traffic of foreigners in its territory especially on the basis of national interests, such as security. The existence of Presidential Regulation No. 125/2016 on the Handling of Refugees from Abroad has not optimally become a solution for handling refugees in Indonesia. By using normative juridical research method, the authors analyzed that although the regulations regarding repatriation and resettlement of refugees were mentioned in Presidential Regulation No. 125/2016, they did not clearly regulate the procedures for handling refugees either through voluntary repatriation and there was no attempt by the government to implement the repatriation program. As for resettlement, the Indonesian government only relies on UNHCR

A lot of literature discusses the role of state administration, but there is still very little that emphasizes the unique picture related to juxtaposing aspects of fiduciary constitutionalism with administrative constitutionalism, especially at the stage of constitutional legal studies with the context of constitutionalism in Indonesia. Implementing a fiduciary state administration is very much needed, but the most significant obstacle is the enigma of administrative constitutionalism. The purpose of this inquiry is to analyze the development of the Indonesian Constitution in the future by elaborating the theory of fiduciary constitutionalism, issues related to administrative constitutionalism, and discussions related to the incorporation of the former and the latter into the practice of legal and political representation in the Indonesian Constitution using the perspective of judicial engagement theory. The research method used is the doctrinal legal approach using secondary data in the legal literature to gain academic insight. This research finally leads to a conclusion that focuses on the aspects of fiduciary and administrative constitutionalism, which can explain this phenomenon in enhancing the Constitution in Indonesia through several internalized recommendations.

The object of this study is fraud in the comparative aspect of civil and criminal law based on the relevant legislation and Kosovo legal theory. The results of this study prove that fraud in the Kosovo courts practice is relatively common, and that there are many irregularities in its handling. Irregularities mostly refer to the lack of clarity matter of differences that this harmful phenomenon contains in itself when handled in the civil legal aspect from the treatment given to it in the criminal legal aspect. These uncertainties have influenced that in each concrete case the phenomenon of fraud in Kosovo is first addressed in the criminal aspect and then eventually in the civil aspect. The study highlights the similarities, differences and existing ambiguities of fraud when handled in the civil legal aspect from the treatment given to it in the criminal legal context, as well as it addresses the appropriate ways of clarifying such situation. The contribution of this study is theoretical and practical, bearing in mind the fact that it deals with an almost unaddressed issue in Kosovo and perhaps in many other countries.

The purpose of this legal and constitutional study was to deeply understand the causes and impacts of rejection of the ratification of the Omnibus Bill and its derivatives of the Job Creation Bill by demonstrators consisting of students and laborers throughout Indonesia. To make it easier for us to understand the above problems, we have carried out a series of data collections since the Omnibus Bill was discussed until it was passed by Parliament and rejected by demonstrators. For data, secondary legal information in the form of legal publications, textbooks, journals, and court decisions related to the Omnibus Law and other information in the form of articles published in the mass media has also been used as data. Finally, we can conclude that the findings include: Several laws originating from the Omnibus law have legitimized environmental destruction, ignoring customary rights that are more environmentally friendly and sustainable. The majority of the Omnibus Law committee comes from the elite who do not think about the civilian element, including the new law derivative people. The Omnibus Bill is believed to have participated in enslaving workers under the pretext of legal flexibility through low wages, hourly wages, and the use of work contracts and outsourcing to win over companies. The government looks repressive towards its people through the Omnibus Law, which looks unique to business people so that rejection and predictions will lead to the Constitutional Court.
