Efforts to Overcome the Crime of Murder in the Family Reviewed from a Criminological Perspective
This article aims to analyze efforts to prevent the crime of murder within the family environment from a criminological perspective and to examine criminal responsibility and punishment imposed on perpetrators. The problem is focused on the occurrence of murder cases within the family environment in North Sumatra Province and the factors contributing to these crimes, based on seven reported cases from online media news between 2021 and 2024. In order to approach this problem, criminological theory and criminal law theory are used as the theoretical references to understand the causes of crime and the application of criminal liability. The data is collected through a normative-empirical legal research method, including literature studies, analysis of statutory regulations such as the Criminal Code (KUHP), Law Number 23 of 2004 concerning the Elimination of Domestic Violence, Law Number 1 of 2023, and the examination of relevant online media reports, and analyzed qualitatively. This study concludes that efforts to prevent the crime of murder in the family can be carried out through penal and non-penal approaches. Penal efforts emphasize the enforcement of criminal sanctions, while non-penal efforts focus on preventive measures through education, strengthening family resilience, the role of religious institutions, police involvement, and psychological assistance. The causative factors include emotional instability, parenting patterns, economic pressure, social environment, and weak law enforcement. Effective prevention requires cross-sectoral collaboration to create a just, preventive, and sustainable crime prevention system, while punishment serves both retributive and rehabilitative purposes

This study aims to analyze the legal position of debtors and creditors in bankruptcy cases and assess the judge's considerations in Decision Number 36/Pdt.Sus-Pailit/2020/PN Niaga Jakarta Pusat, particularly the extent to which these considerations are in accordance with applicable legal norms. The research method used is normative juridical, with an approach based on legislation, court decisions, and legal literature related to bankruptcy. Data was obtained through document studies and court decisions, then analyzed qualitatively to assess the balance of debtor and creditor rights and the consistency of the decision with Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations. The results of the study show that debtors who are declared bankrupt experience restrictions on their property rights, while creditors obtain legal certainty through the mechanism of appointing a curator and distributing assets. The judges' considerations emphasize the examination of evidence, the right to be heard, and the principle of substantive justice, so that the decisions are generally consistent with applicable legal norms. This research contributes to the understanding of bankruptcy law practices in Indonesia and serves as a reference for efforts to resolve disputes between debtors and creditors in a fair and transparent manner
Strategies for Strengthening Local Businesses through Digital Marketplace Transformation in the New Economy Era in Bone Regency
This study analyzes the digital transformation of marketplaces as a strategy to strengthen micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Bone Regency, South Sulawesi. The background of this study is based on the digital technology adoption gap between urban and rural areas, which impacts the competitiveness of MSMEs. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study design, involving 15 informants comprising business operators, marketplace platform managers, MSME facilitators, and local government representatives. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis, then analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model to identify key themes. The findings reveal five key themes: (1) the motivation to adopt marketplaces is driven by the need to expand market reach and adapt to changing consumer behavior; (2) key enablers include training and technical assistance, while barriers include low digital literacy, infrastructure limitations, and logistical challenges; (3) digitalization has a positive impact on sales growth and changes in consumer behavior, particularly among younger generations; (4) local-based mentoring strategies and entrepreneurial communities such as Tangan Di Atas (TDA) are effective in accelerating digital adaptation; and (5) government policies support training and business legality, but collaboration with local platforms is still limited. This study highlights the importance of multi-actor collaboration and contextualized policy interventions to build inclusive, resilient, and sustainable digital marketplace ecosystems in rural areas, providing actionable insights for regional governments and stakeholders in strengthening rural digital economies
Sustainability of the Free Nutritional Meal Program (MBG): An Analysis of the Effectiveness of the Quadruple Helix Model
This article aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Quadruple Helix model in supporting the sustainability of the Free Nutritional Meal Program (MBG) in Makassar City. The problem focuses on the dynamics of collaboration between government, academics, business actors (SPPG and Partners), and community leaders/NGOs in program implementation. To approach this problem, the theoretical reference used is Carayannis and Campbell (2009) on the Quadruple Helix model as a framework for social innovation collaboration. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies with eight key informants, then analyzed qualitatively using a case study approach. The results show that the city government plays a dominant role as a driver, SPPG and effective partners in the technical realm of food distribution, while academics and NGOs have not been optimally involved, resulting in weak contributions to policy evaluation, nutritional standards, and social support. Obstacles that emerged include limited inter-agency coordination, kitchen capacity, menu variety, and low transparency and community participation. This study concludes that the effectiveness of MBG is still partial, but opportunities for improvement are open through the establishment of a cross-actor coordination body, formal involvement of academics, and strengthening the participation of MSMEs and civil society to ensure the sustainability and quality of the program. This research contributes to enriching the discourse on Quadruple Helix-based social policy collaboration at the local level and provides practical effectiveness in empowering the governance of national nutrition programs based on multi-actor partnerships

Characteristics of SKD 61 and Aluminium 7075 Tools in High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Polypropylene (PP) Welding in Terms of Tensile Strength and Bending strength
Effective welding procedures are necessary to preserve structural integrity due to the growing usage of lightweight polymers in industry, such as polypropylene (PP) and high density polyethylene (HDPE). This study sought to determine how the tool materials, SKD 61 and Aluminum 7075, affected the tensile and bending strength of HDPE and PP friction stir welded (FSW) joints. A quantitative comparative design was used in the experiment, and the FSW tool was modified milling equipment with screw cylindrical pin tools. Temperature control was observed using a thermogun and no preheating was used to guarantee process stability. Based on the results, SKD 61 generated higher weld quality, which was characterized by fewer flaws, regulated heat input, and more consistent material flow. SKD 61 outperformed than aluminium 7075, which had an average tensile strength of 11.09 MPa and bending strength of 19.11 MPa, while aluminium 7075 had an average tensile strength of 7.8 MPa and bending strengths of 16.28 MPa. This discrepancy is explained by SKD 61's higher heat conductivity and stability, whereas tool geometry had little effect because the screw cylindrical pin profile was the same. SKD 61 is more suited for FSW of HDPE-PP dissimilar joints, according to the study's findings, offering higher joint quality and stronger mechanical performance

Efektifitas Hukum Jaminan dalam Hipotik Sektor Maritim: Studi Terhadap Kepastian Hukum dalam Perjanjian Kapal dan Property
This research discusses the implementation of ship mortgages within the Indonesian legal system, the legal certainty in ship mortgage agreements, regulatory challenges and alternative solutions, as well as the concept of security law in the maritime sector. A normative juridical method is employed in this study, utilizing statutory and comparative legal approaches. The findings indicate that the legal framework governing ship mortgages in Indonesia still contains several weaknesses, particularly in terms of legal certainty and the effectiveness of security enforcement. One of the primary issues is the absence of an integrated registration system, which creates difficulties in tracking the legal status of ships used as collateral. Additionally, the procedures for enforcing ship mortgages remain complex and time-consuming, often leading to uncertainty for creditors. A more comprehensive regulatory reform is needed to enhance the effectiveness of the maritime security law system. Harmonizing national regulations with international standards, strengthening the ship mortgage registration system, and improving the capacity of judicial institutions to handle maritime mortgage disputes are among the measures that can be taken. With such reforms, it is expected that a more effective legal system can be established-one that ensures the rights of creditors while also providing protection for debtors
