In order to avoid the legal and social consequences of the lack of registration, creative and ad-hoc solutions are crafted – not only by the individual families who face the problem, but also by their community, including local and state actors who are involved in the mechanisms and paperwork. These mechanisms exist also because of state’s reluctance to enforce regulation related to unregistered marriage and children born into unregistered marriage as these matters are religiously and culturally delicate. We argue that the state facilitates all types of unregistered marriages, which results in blurring legal parameters of marriage. This leads unregistered children to be living in a legal limbo: their legal status and attached rights remain unclear, not being fully ensured of their rights to public services, inheritance, and child maintenance.","PeriodicalId":303766,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Socio-Legal Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134073261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper discusses the interaction and tension between these principles in a judicial organization and their methodological consequences. In the discussion about methodology, this paper will elaborate on the application of interdisciplinary legal research methods as a consequence of the dynamics between the two perspectives in the judicial organization.

The article will first discuss the cases, using Legal Strategy analysis. It will then highlight problems with the commoditisation of houses. Finally, it will argue that the problem of unhealthy and unaffordable housing in Indonesia can be resolved, by bringing together activists and researchers in a joint enterprise and tackling the issue as a collective societal project.

With a field study approach, this study aims to explain how the settlement process of natural resources disputes by a “customary judge” in the Kei Islands is still used as a reference by the community. What are the reasons? This study discovered that customary settlement forums are still used to resolve marine resource disputes and deemed to provide a sense of justice. Customary settlements are not only aimed at punishing the perpetrators, but also to restore the impact of the dispute on individual victims, their families and their social environment. This study also discovered that the customary settlements carried out in the Kei Islands have developed from the dated dichotomy and tend to produce hybrid settlement models.","PeriodicalId":303766,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Socio-Legal Studies","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128466430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In various sectors, standards for production, including agricultural products, appear in the form of certification labels. One of the most discussed standards today is the sustainability standard. Different from other existing standards, the sustainability standard includes items such as human rights, land rights, and deforestation, which conventionally are the domain of public institutions, especially the government. The global market standards are no longer considered as the work of private sectors, instead it is now the result of traditional institution’s roles transformation and legal implementation processes in various arenas. Therefore, these standards will affect the law-making process and law enforcement. However, the idea of global market standard is repudiated by many people as it is considered a way to eliminate state-sovereignty. To elaborate the extent of the standards’ effect, how they are implemented and interplay with the legal systems, this article studies the implementation of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standard in the Palm Oil Plantation in two villages in Central Kalimantan. The situation in the villages portrays the extent of the global market standard implementation. The author hopes this article provides new insight on the relation between global market standards, state law and other norms living, especially, among parties involved in the palm oil industry and farmers’ empowerment. Furthermore, this article is hoped to serve as constructive lesson of a law-making process built on cross-border cooperation.","PeriodicalId":303766,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Socio-Legal Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125520796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims to see how the current legal framework in Indonesia handles GBVO cases and whether it is sufficient to provide protection for victims. This paper also wants to show that the practice of GBVO is often more detrimental to women through the elaboration of several examples of cases that are widely discussed in Indonesian society. The correlation between the strong patriarchal culture; and the lack of understanding by the community and law enforcement officers on the concept of consent always corners women as victims of GBVO and applies it to the secondary victimization process. The research was conducted using a feminist legal method that focuses on the experience of women as victims to encourage the formulation of a legal umbrella and legal system with a more victim perspective.","PeriodicalId":303766,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Socio-Legal Studies","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132685542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Victims are also bound to the strong culture that condones sexual relations without consent as long as it is carried out within the framework of a legal marriage. This study aims to demonstrate the importance of rehabilitation for offenders of marital rape by examining various laws and regulations in Indonesia and the obstacles to their implementation. Methodologically, data were obtained from doctrinal studies of Indonesian law and court decisions related to marital rape and empirical studies from a number of law enforcement officers as well as paralegals. The results show that the absence of a specialized law that regulates the rehabilitation of marital rape perpetrators impacts poorly on judges' decisions in domestic violence cases. There has been no court decision sentencing mandatory counseling as part of their rulings. Judges frequently view sexual violence within a limited scope of physical evidence; as a result, perpetrators are granted low sentences. Indonesia needs a specialized law that regulates the rehabilitation of marital rape perpetrators.","PeriodicalId":303766,"journal":{"name":"The Indonesian Journal of Socio-Legal Studies","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116558575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
