Humanistic Leadership Based on Uswah Hasanah: An Ethical and Transformative Model for Private University Lecturers
Full text linkThis study aims to develop and test a humanistic leadership model based on Uswah Hasanah as an ethical and transformative paradigm in the context of private universities in Indonesia. The leadership crisis, characterized by an increase in instrumentalist leadership practices and a disregard for the human dimension, necessitates exploring alternative models that place moral exemplarity at the core of leadership. The study employed a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design, integrating a systematic literature review with a survey of private university lecturers selected through purposive sampling. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis to build a conceptual model, while quantitative data were analyzed using nonparametric statistics (Spearman's Rank Correlation and the Kruskal-Wallis Test) in SPSS 26. The results indicate that the humanistic leadership model based on uswah hasanah consists of four interrelated dimensions: (1) ethics based on human dignity; (2) dialogic and empathetic relationships; (3) moral learning through role models; and (4) sustainable social transformation. Spearman correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship between all dimensions, indicating strong internal cohesion of the model. The Kruskal-Wallis test revealed significant differences in perceptions of the ethical dimensions and moral learning based on lecturers' tenure, with senior lecturers demonstrating a deeper understanding. Theoretically, this study enriches the discourse on values-based leadership by offering an integrative, contextually grounded synthesis of humanistic management and Islamic ethics. Practically, this model provides an operational framework for leadership development that emphasizes character formation, moral consistency, and organizational culture transformation through role models
The Role of Business Innovation in Mediating Digital Transformation and Marketing Strategy on SME Business Performance
Full text linkAs a measure of business success, the performance of SMEs now faces challenges from rapid digitalisation and demands for more adaptive marketing strategies. This study aims to analyse the influence of digital transformation and marketing strategy on business performance, with business innovation as a mediating variable in tempe chip SMEs in Kampung Sanan, Malang City. The study uses a quantitative causality approach with an ex post facto explanatory method. The research population consists of 500 SMEs, with a sample of 245 SMEs selected purposively according to criteria. Data were collected through a 1–5 Likert scale questionnaire and analysed using Path Analysis with SmartPLS 4. The results show that digital transformation and marketing strategy have a positive and significant effect on business innovation and business performance. Business innovation also mediates the relationship between the two and business performance, although the mediation contribution is smaller than the direct effect. These findings confirm that the application of digital technology and adaptive marketing strategies, supported by innovation, can improve SME performance in a sustainable manner. The practical implication is that SMEs need to develop technology-based innovations, optimise social media, and formulate adaptive marketing strategies to strengthen their competitiveness
Analyzing the Link Between FOMO,Financial Literacy, and Financial Behavior in Shaping Entrepreneurial Intention Among Generation Z
Full text linkThis study explores how FOMO, financial knowledge, and personal financial management habits shape entrepreneurial intention among Generation Z. Using a quantitative approach with SEM-PLS, the research examines the relationships among the key variables. The findings indicate that fear of missing out, financial literacy, and financial behavior each contribute to increasing young individuals’ inclination to engage in entrepreneurial activities. Financial literacy is shown to promote healthier financial behavior, which subsequently serves as an indirect pathway that enhances entrepreneurial intention. The study also reveals that financial literacy strengthens individuals’ responses to the influence of FOMO within the entrepreneurial context. Overall, the results illustrate that psychological factors and financial capabilities complement each other in fostering entrepreneurial interest. However, the study is limited by the dominance of student respondents, suggesting that future research should involve more diverse participant groups
An Empirical Study of Bonds as a Safe Haven in Indonesia During COVID-19 and Russia-Ukraine War
Full text linkThis study examines whether government and corporate bonds in Indonesia act as hedging or safe haven assets during the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia–Ukraine war. This study using data started from March 3, 2020 which is the date of the first Covid-19 case emerged in Indonesia to March 29, 2024 even though the war is not over yet on the time this study being conducted. The cut-off date for the Russia-Ukraine war is February 24, 2022. Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) is used in order to test the potential of bonds as hedges, while QREG used in order to test the potential of bond as safe haven. The findings show that during the period of financial and geopolitical crisis, Indonesian government and corporate bonds cannot be an effective safe haven or hedge against the stock market. While they can serve as diversification assets due to their stable volatility, these bonds lack the consistent negative correlation with the Composite Stock Price Index (CSPI) required for safe haven assets. Investors and portfolio managers should be cautious in relying on government bonds and corporate bonds as hedge against stock market declines. The results suggest that bonds may not provide the expected protection against stock market declines, so investors need to consider alternative diversification strategies or other hedging instruments when making investment decisions
Handling of Minors Who Commit Crimes
Full text linkThe general definition of adolescents is our young people who are still considered children, for example, if we look at it from the perspective of the general understanding or stance of society, usually their ages are between 13 and 15 years (unmarried). And when viewed in terms of age, they may seem like adults, but in terms of behavior they actually still have a lot to learn, both through parental education and experiences in life. If we look at the contents of the Civil Code, Article 330 explains that those categorized as minors are those who are 21 years old and even then must have never been married. From other aspects such as religious and customary in general, those who are considered adults are those who have menstruated if a woman and if a man has ejaculated while unconscious, his voice changes to a high pitch. Meanwhile, in the Criminal Code in Article 45, it is regulated that those who are considered minors are those who are under 16 years old. The sheer number of differing opinions, as outlined above, demonstrates the importance of understanding the concept of children and adolescents. This is because it is closely related to the judicial process or the handling of crimes committed by these children and adolescents
A Legal Study of the Implementation of the Collective Music Royalty Management System in Indonesia
Full text linkThe collective management system regulated by Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright, Government Regulation Number 56 of 2021, and various ministerial regulations is designed to protect the economic rights of creators, related rights owners, and users of musical works through a royalty collection and distribution mechanism. However, its implementation has given rise to various normative issues, ranging from overlapping authority between LMK and LMKN, unclear licensing mechanisms, and minimal transparency in royalty distribution. This culminated in a number of creators filing judicial review lawsuits against PP 56/2021 and Permenkumham 27/2025, objecting to the system's inconsistency with copyright protection principles. This study aims to legally examine the implementation of the collective music royalty management system in Indonesia and assess its compliance with the principles of justice, legal certainty, and transparency. This study uses a normative legal approach supported by philosophical and conceptual analysis. The results of this study found that the implementation of the collective royalty management system still faces various ineffectiveness, including potential conflicts of interest, administrative burdens, and a lack of institutional accountability. This situation indicates the need for regulatory reformulation and strengthening of institutional governance so that the royalty management system can operate fairly, transparently, and sustainably to support the national music industry ecosystem
Pengembalian Aset Dalam Perkara Tindak Pidana Korupsi Berdasarkan Keadilan Islam
Full text linkCorruption is recognized as a global phenomenon and classified as an extraordinary crime both nationally and internationally. Therefore, it requires equally extraordinary approaches to address it. This research focuses on the issue of justice in corruption cases, particularly for perpetrators who have returned misappropriated assets. Many suspects or defendants have returned such assets but still face criminal punishment, even though their involvement may have been limited to an accessory role rather than that of a principal actor. This situation highlights the need for a legal justice principle that provides adequate protection. In Islamic law, the imposition of compensation payments in corruption crimes is referred to as ‘Uqubah Taba’iyah, a form of ta'zir punishment involving property. This punishment must be proportional to the amount embezzled and paid to the authorized authorities. The payment of compensation is classified as an additional criminal sanction that may be imposed on perpetrators of corruption. This study aims to examine and understand the concept of punishment in corruption cases in the context of asset recovery, legal justice, and equitable legal systems, as well as how Islamic justice offers legal protection to those who return stolen assets in the formation of a fair legal system in Indonesia. To identify and analyze the issues, this research employs critical academic thinking, conceptual approaches, statutory analysis, case studies, and comparative legal methods. The findings reveal that in several rulings—particularly at the Corruption Court of the Palembang District Court—judges have imposed criminal sanctions on individuals who had already returned state losses. This is due to limitations in current regulations, which state that returning state losses does not exempt one from criminal liability. The imposition of compensation payments on corruption offenders is based on the financial or economic harm caused to the state, with the amount required to be paid being equivalent to the gains obtained from the corruption. Under Islamic criminal law, compensation payments are considered a form of additional punishment (‘Uqubah Taba’iyah) that follows the primary ruling without requiring a separate judgment. Such payments are categorized as ta’zir punishments in the form of property, and offenders are obligated to return any assets obtained through corruption once a legal ruling has been issued by a judge
Analisis Terhadap Penyelesaian Tindak Pidana Kasus Pencurian
Full text linkThe high unemployment rate in Indonesia has caused more people to experience economic conditions around the poverty line. This has subsequently led to a tendency for crime in Indonesia to increase. The most common crime committed is theft. The motive for theft is largely economic pressure. Theft is not considered a serious crime, but it can still be subject to criminal law. Theft can be divided into two types: petty theft and ordinary theft. There are several differences between the two, although the boundaries must be considered. This study analyzes how judges adjudicate theft cases. Judges need to pay attention to several factors related to elements that aggravate the defendant's theft. In this study, the research method used is descriptive-analytical and analyzed based on secondary and primary dat

CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY OF BUSINESS ACTORS FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD CONTAINING DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES
Full text linkABSTRACTThe distribution of food containing hazardous chemicals remains a serious issue in consumer protection in Indonesia. Although the Consumer Protection Law, the Food Law, and various derivative regulations have provided a clear legal basis, practices in the field show that law enforcement is still weak. This study aims to analyze the criminal liability of business actors for the distribution of hazardous food by examining the applicable legal norms and their implementation in the field. The method used is empirical legal research with a normative juridical approach and field studies, through analysis of regulations, court decisions, and data from the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM). The results of the study show that the forms of business operator liability can be civil, administrative, and criminal; however, obstacles such as limited resources, weak coordination between agencies, low legal awareness, and inconsistent court decisions mean that criminal sanctions are rarely applied to the fullest extent. This study emphasizes the importance of strengthening coordination among law enforcement agencies, harmonizing regulations, and applying consistent criminal sanctions to realize consumer protection. Theoretically, this study enriches the study of economic criminal law and consumer protection, while practically providing policy recommendations for improving the hazardous food control system in Indonesia
