Resolving Medical Disputes: Lessons from U.S. Arbitration for Indonesia’s Legal Framework
Full text linkArbitration serves as a dispute resolution method that offers notable benefits, especially in cases related to medical issues. In contrast, other methods such as litigation are often seen as less effective, while mediation lacks executory power due to the absence of legal enforceability, making agreements vulnerable to cancellation. In Indonesia, arbitration has not yet been adopted for resolving medical disputes, as specific technical regulations are still needed to guide relevant institutions and establish effective mechanisms. This research highlights the importance of implementing arbitration in Indonesia’s medical dispute resolution framework, using a comparative analysis of practices in the United States. Employing normative legal research with qualitative data analysis and comparative examination of international legal practices, the findings reveal that arbitration offers a binding and final resolution, making it a highly effective approach for handling medical disputes. To facilitate its adoption in Indonesia, comprehensive technical regulations and a legal framework—similar to the United States’ Uniform Arbitration Act (UAA), which outlines arbitration requirements for individual states—are necessary
Academic Misconduct Responsibilities: An Empirical Comparison Using 35 Chinese Cases as a Foundation
Full text linkThis article undertakes a comprehensive exploration of academic misconduct by employing a robust comparative and empirical approach. It meticulously examines 35 representative cases from China, delving into the diverse manifestations of academic misconduct such as fund project evaluation interference, fraud, paper trading, improper authorship, and multiple submissions. Through in-depth legal analysis, it not only investigates the infringements on intellectual property rights and public legal interests but also proposes the application of strict liability in tort law. To enhance the regulatory framework, the article advocates for clearer criminalization criteria for severe academic misconduct. It further extends the discussion to incorporate the roles of academic institutions, the challenges in enforcement, and a more expansive legal framework. By drawing on international experiences and best practices, it formulates comprehensive and actionable suggestions for reforming China's academic misconduct regulations, aiming to address this issue effectively on both national and international levels
Conceptualization of Region-Specific Comprehensive Ocean Management Regime for Maritime Economic Exploration
Full text linkThe history of the global economy is closely tied to the control of international trade routes, with maritime dominance playing a central role—evident in the supremacy of the Phoenicians, Arabs, and later European colonial powers. In the post-Cold War unipolar era, the USA has leveraged globalization through its maritime military hegemony. The Indian Ocean, particularly the Bay of Bengal (BoB), represents a critical hub for global sea trade and economic connectivity, intersecting with the South China Sea. Ensuring regional peace and stability is essential for sustaining international maritime trade and blue economic growth. This research introduces a novel Comprehensive Ocean Management Regime (COMR) tailored to the BOB maritime-littoral region to address these challenges and advance sustainable blue economic objectives. By critically analysing global coastal and ocean governance practices—such as Maritime Protected Areas and Integrated Coastal Zone Management—the study identifies policy, management, and operational challenges and proposes actionable solutions. Recognizing the limitations of aggregated sectoral data and the scarcity of precise quantitative insights, the study adopts a qualitative approach and employs the Delphi method to gather expert consensus through iterative analysis. The COMR framework provides a unique, actionable model that can guide sustainable maritime policy and management in the BOB region, contributing to the broader discourse on sustainable ocean governance
AI Revolution: The Legal Battle Between Indonesia and the European Union to Protect Copyright from Artificial Intelligence
Full text linkThe global surge in generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) has triggered unprecedented legal complexities in copyright protection. This article examines how Indonesia and the European Union (EU) approach the challenges posed by AI driven content creation and potential copyright infringement. Through doctrinal and comparative legal analysis, this study explores regulatory frameworks, liability questions, and enforcement mechanisms in both jurisdictions. The analysis reveals that Indonesia's Copyright Law No. 28 of 2014 remains anthropocentric, lacking recognition of AI generated works and mechanisms for regulating AI training using copyrighted materials. By contrast, the EU has developed a more comprehensive approach through the EU Copyright Directive and the AI Act, which incorporates risk-based AI governance and explicit opt out rights for copyright holders. The study identifies significant regulatory asymmetries between the two jurisdictions and examines potential areas for legal development. Drawing on international frameworks such as the OECD AI Guidelines, this research suggests that Indonesia could benefit from adopting more anticipatory regulatory approaches similar to the EU's principle-based strategy. The findings indicate that proactive legal reforms are necessary to address emerging AI copyright challenges in developing legal systems. This study contributes to the growing body of comparative legal scholarship on AI governance and offers insights for policymakers navigating the intersection of artificial intelligence and intellectual property law
China–Malaysia Cross-Border Data Governance: ASEAN and Regional Legal Interactions
Full text linkIn the context of the digital economy, cross-border data governance cooperation between China and Malaysia is constrained by two factors: differences in domestic data protection laws and the lack of coherence among existing multilateral frameworks. Prior scholarship primarily examines cross-border data governance through single-treaty frameworks, while the role of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) as an institutional intermediary has not been systematically analysed. In particular, institutional coordination pathways between China and Malaysia remain underexplored. The study adopts a qualitative methodology, combining textual and comparative analyses, to examine the institutional structure of the ASEAN Data Governance Framework (ADGF). It investigates ASEAN’s role in coordinating the multilateral mechanisms of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), and the China–ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA), where the institutional challenges in China–Malaysia cooperation are further analysed. The analysis shows that while ASEAN contributes to reducing institutional differences, its coordination mechanisms remain limited. The study therefore adopts ASEAN as an institutional coordination platform and develops a governance pathway that integrates bilateral and regional rules to examine institutional compatibility between China and Malaysia
Enhancing Minority Rights in Kosovo and the Balkans: Legal Avenues to Inclusion
Full text linkThe establishment of lasting peace as a requirement for overall societal development is one of the major challenges facing emerging multi-ethnic societies. On the other hand, a lack of fundamental rights and liberties can spark unrest within the state, with the potential for conflict escalation and the involvement of other countries. The Balkan region is a classic example of ethnic conflict that has resulted in crimes and deep enmities between people who once lived peacefully together. The paper compares Kosovo to other Balkan countries in terms of the importance of empowering minority rights and freedoms, as well as using the proactive approach of governmental institutions to include minority community members in the decision-making process. The research has found that the minority groups are not well informed on legal guarantees of their rights and liberties, therefore the impression of legal gaps in safeguarding the latter is very significant. Long-term peace can be maintained by ensuring minorities' rights through the constitution and legal framework and then ensuring those rights are known to the minorities and upheld as well. The article applies a legal-doctrinal, analytical, comparative, qualitative, and quantitative method to determine the legal framework of minority community rights in Kosovo and how they interact with state institutions
The Artist’s Resale Right: Global Perspectives and Vietnam’s Path to Protection under the EVFTA
Full text linkThe artist’s resale right, enabling visual artists to receive royalties from secondary market sales, is a pivotal intellectual property mechanism with varied global adoption. This article traces its historical evolution from early 20th-century legislation to its inclusion in international frameworks, contrasting the European Union and United Kingdom’s harmonized approaches with the United States’ rejection due to differing copyright philosophies. It examines the resale right provisions in a new-generation free trade agreement, analyzing Vietnam’s current legal gap under its intellectual property framework and the feasibility of incorporation. The article evaluates arguments for and against the resale right, highlighting its role in promoting artist equity and creative incentives against concerns of market distortion and administrative burdens. It argues that Vietnam should adopt the resale right to align with global standards, proposing solutions to legal, cultural, economic, and political challenges. This analysis offers insights for jurisdictions navigating intellectual property integration in trade agreements
Regulatory Frameworks to Integrate Corporate Social Responsibility with Circular Economy Principles
Full text linkThe urgency of integrating environmental Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and circular economy principles into legal policy frameworks has become increasingly critical in the energy transition era. This study examines the regulatory challenges hindering the alignment between CSR obligations and circular economy objectives in Indonesia, particularly the legal disconnection between Law No. 40 of 2007 on Limited Liability Companies and broader environmental regulations. Utilizing a normative legal research method, the study analyzes statutory instruments, policy documents, and international legal frameworks to assess the coherence and efficacy of existing laws. Findings reveal that CSR implementation remains fragmented and often symbolic, while circular economy practices lack regulatory incentives and enforcement, especially in resource-intensive sectors. This gap not only undermines sustainability efforts but also delays the shift toward a low-carbon economic model. The study underscores the need for regulatory harmonization, including revising corporate and environmental laws to embed circular economy principles into CSR obligations. The novelty of this research lies in offering an integrative legal perspective that bridges CSR and circular economy concepts, presenting a policy blueprint to accelerate Indonesia's transition toward a more sustainable and environmentally accountable corporate ecosystem
A Cross-National Analysis of State Institutional Authority Disputes
Full text linkThe distribution of authority among state institutions is a fundamental component of any governmental framework, as it helps prevent jurisdictional overlaps that could lead to institutional conflicts. When such conflicts over authority do occur, it becomes imperative to have a mechanism in place for their resolution. This study is designed to explore and analyze the comparative regulatory structures for resolving authority disputes among state institutions, as outlined by the legislation in Indonesia, the United States, Germany, and Canada. Furthermore, the research aims to identify the characteristics of disputes concerning state institutional authority and suggest optimal regulatory solutions for their resolution. Utilizing a qualitative and descriptive research approach, this study will clarify the regulatory frameworks for dispute resolution among state institutions, as defined by the current legislation in each country. Each framework is characterized by unique institutions and methods for resolving disputes. The findings reveal that the German Constitutional Court holds the most comprehensive jurisdiction, covering all state institutions in Germany, both at the central and regional levels. In terms of procedural aspects, the legal framework for resolving authority disputes in Germany is more detailed than those in Indonesia, the United States, or Canada, thereby promoting greater transparency and accountability in the dispute resolution process in Germany
Multilayered Democracy in Papua: A Comparison of "Noken" System and Electoral College System in the United States
Full text linkThe elucidation of understanding popular sovereignty through the implementation of democratic principles when applied to a pluralistic Indonesian society requires a comprehensive study. This study is a normative-legal research by using statute, case, and conceptual approaches. This paper provides information on the latest trend in research. The results show that the characteristics of the general election by Noken system are in line with the Electoral College system to presidential elections in the United States, especially in the Noken system as represented by the chieftain (election by the big man). The Noken system is the result of the relations of political culture and the strengthening of local democracy. Hence, the constitutionality of Noken system is a translation of the constitution that pays attention to the social diversity that lives in society. Not only in the context of general elections, but in every aspect of national and State life, as more attention is given to the constitution of social diversity in society (constitutional pluralism)
