The Public Service Function of Neighborhood Heads from the Perspective of Islamic Leadership in Medan City
Full text linkThis study examines the role of public service functions performed by Neighborhood Heads in Medan City from the perspective of Islamic leadership. The research aims to provide an understanding of how public service practices by Neighborhood Heads align with the principles and values of Islamic leadership, specifically in Medan City. This qualitative descriptive study employs participatory observation and in-depth interviews as the primary methods, utilizing an interview guide as a supporting tool. The in-depth interviews were conducted with informants to gain a comprehensive understanding of: 1) the public service functions of the Neighborhood Head, 2) the efforts made by the Neighborhood Head in fulfilling their responsibilities, 3) the supporting and inhibiting factors in executing their functions, and 4) the alignment of the Neighborhood Head's roles with Islamic leadership principles. The study concludes that the implementation of Islamic leadership values in public service by Neighborhood Chiefs is not limited to those adhering to the Islamic faith but is also evident among non-Muslim Neighborhood Chiefs. Some non-Muslim neighborhood heads demonstrate public service practices consistent with Islamic leadership values. The principles of Islamic leadership, such as amanah (trustworthiness), adil (justice), shura (consultation), and amar ma'ruf nahi munkar (enjoining good and forbidding wrong), have been observed in their practices. However, the principle of justice poses a challenge as Neighborhood Chiefs must operate within the regulations and policies established by the government, which may limit their ability to fully implement this principle
The Effect of Legal Education on Public Legal Awareness
Full text linkThis study examines the impact of legal education on public legal awareness in Indonesia, using a quantitative cross-sectional survey design. The research investigates how participation in legal education programs influences individuals' understanding of legal rights, processes, and access to justice. A total of 500 respondents, stratified by demographic factors such as gender, age, education level, and geographic location, were surveyed. The findings reveal that individuals who participated in legal education programs reported significantly higher legal awareness (M = 4.10) compared to those who did not (M = 3.30), with a large effect size (Cohen's d = 0.80). Demographic factors such as education level, employment status, and age were also found to influence legal awareness, with higher educational attainment and employment status positively correlating with increased legal awareness. Gender-based differences were observed, but their practical significance was minimal. Regression analysis further confirmed that legal education is a significant predictor of legal awareness (β = 0.62, p < 0.001). The results emphasize the crucial role of legal education in fostering an informed and engaged citizenry, particularly in enhancing public understanding of legal rights and responsibilities. The study suggests that increasing access to legal education can lead to a more empowered society, capable of participating actively in legal and civic processes
Effectiveness of Traffic Law Enforcement and Alternative Models for Solving It at the Central Tapanuli Police
Full text linkTraffic law enforcement is one of the important efforts in creating order and driving safety. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of law enforcement against traffic violations in the Central Tapanuli Police Station, identify the factors that cause the high number of violations, and propose a more effective alternative solution model. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data was obtained through interviews with police officers and the public, observations at several traffic points, and documentation studies related to traffic policies and regulations. The results of the study show that law enforcement at the Central Tapanuli Police still faces various obstacles, including low public awareness of the law, lack of supervision, limited infrastructure, and poor driving culture. Law enforcement, which currently focuses more on repressive measures, has not been able to create a significant deterrent effect. Therefore, more effective alternative models are needed, such as the SIM Point System, Traffic Education for Offenders, Social Sanctions, and ETLE Strengthening. This model is expected to increase public awareness and reduce the number of traffic violations in a more sustainable manner. With the implementation of a more innovative and education-based strategy, it is hoped that the level of traffic compliance in Central Tapanuli can increase significantly. The conclusion of this study indicates that a combination of strict law enforcement and a preventive approach is the main key in creating a more orderly and safe traffic system
Legal Study on the Validity of Electronic Notarial Deeds in Indonesia: Regulatory Analysis and Practical Implications
Full text linkThis study aims to evaluate the validity of electronic notary deeds in the context of Indonesian law, analyze their implementation challenges, and compare regulations with other countries that have adopted similar systems. The method used is a normative juridical approach with an analysis of various regulations, such as the Notary Position Law, the ITE Law, and the Government Regulation on Electronic Systems and Transactions. In addition, the study draws on the study of international literature and regulations, such as the eIDAS Regulation in the European Union, to offer a comparative perspective. Data analysis was carried out qualitatively through descriptive and comparative techniques. The findings show that regulations in Indonesia, while providing a basic foundation for electronic documents, still require more specific adjustments to accommodate the digitization of notary deeds. Key challenges include aspects of legal validity, digital security, and resistance to traditional legal culture. In contrast, the experiences of developed countries such as the European Union and Japan highlight the importance of reliable technological infrastructure and adaptive regulations to ensure successful implementation. The conclusion of the study emphasizes the need to harmonize national regulations with international standards as well as strengthen technological capacity and notary understanding of digital systems. The study recommends the development of a more integrated legal framework, improved digital security, and public and professional education to accelerate the transition to electronic notary deeds in Indonesia

Breaking Up the Root of Conflict: Fundamentalism and Radicalism in Social Context
Full text linkThis study critically examines the interrelated phenomena of fundamentalism and radicalism, focusing on their conceptual foundations, socio-political functions, and ambivalent impacts within contemporary Indonesian society. Drawing on a qualitative, literature-based methodology, the research engages religious texts, academic discourse, and socio-political theory to explore how these ideologies emerge in response to structural inequality, moral disorientation, and identity-based exclusion. Rather than reducing fundamentalism and radicalism to extremist threats, the study analyzes them as complex, context-dependent responses to perceived injustice and cultural fragmentation. The findings reveal that both ideologies possess dual potentials: they can foster moral solidarity, community resilience, and ethical critique, yet they also risk producing intolerance, exclusion, and authoritarianism particularly when politicized or absolutized. Root causes such as economic marginalization, epistemic insecurity, and elite manipulation are identified as key drivers of ideological entrenchment. The study concludes by emphasizing the need for nuanced, justice-oriented responses that address the structural conditions underlying ideological radicalization, and calls for future research grounded in lived experience, interdisciplinary analysis, and civic ethics
