Therefore, creative industry entrepreneurs must be protected by their intellectual rights so that all copyrighted works are legally protected by their existence and no one can arbitrarily steal, trade, reproduce without permission from the owner. This research aims to analyze the form of legal protection for Intellectual Property Rights for the creative industry in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The research results show that intellectual property protection plays a crucial role in supporting sustainable growth in various sectors, especially in the creative and science industries. Through analysis of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright, it was found that the change in the nature of copyright offenses from complaint offenses to ordinary offenses had a positive impact in increasing the efficiency and firmness of law enforcement. However, research also highlights the main challenges, namely low public awareness, minimal knowledge about intellectual property rights, perception of high costs, and the view that the processing process takes a long time.</p> ELLI RUSLINA Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 READINESS AND CHALLENGES OF GENERAL EDUCATION TEACHERS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF INCLUSIVE EDUCATION https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3534 <p>This study examined factors relating to inclusive education implementation in the Cebu Province, Philippines. A semi-structured survey was administered to 104 general education teachers from selected three special education centers to gather information on their profile, perceived readiness, and level of challenges. Descriptive and correlational analyses provided insight into teachers' experiences. While they felt prepared overall, more training was needed in collaboration skills. Profile suggested specialized inclusion training could help. Major difficulties included limited resources like specialist roles and facilities. Interestingly, readiness and challenges had a negligible link, implying multi-pronged solutions were warranted. Both improving teacher competencies and addressing resource constraints merit focus. As factors interact complexly, a comprehensive long-term approach spanning pre-service training and systemic support were recommended based on teachers’ input. The findings offered a perspective on strengthening implementation. Targeted readiness development particularly in applied collaboration was identified as beneficial. Resource deficiencies emerged as serious impediments necessitating attention. A coordinated, evidence-informed strategy involving reforms at all educational levels showed promise for advancing inclusion according to study participants. Insights aimed to inform practical, sustainable solutions through a deeper understanding of realities on the ground.</p> NICASIA G. GONZAGA, LEONITA D. PLAN, MAE M.

They play a crucial role in ensuring social justice, an effective and humane economy, and the prosperity of society as a whole. In Kazakhstan, the Federation of Trade Unions of the Republic of Kazakhstan (FTURK) is the largest and most representative organization of workers, with a membership of around two million people. This paper examines the role of trade unions in Kazakhstan, their achievements, and the challenges they face in the current socio-political climate.</em></p> <p><em>Key aspects of trade unions in Kazakhstan include:</em></p> <p><em>- Legal framework: Trade unions in Kazakhstan operate within the framework of the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Professional Unions" (2014), which defines trade unions as public associations aimed at representing and protecting the labor and social and economic rights and interests of their members.</em></p> <p><em>- Regional and sectoral organizations: Trade unions in Kazakhstan are organized on a regional, sectoral, and global basis, with formal institutional relations linking them.</em></p> <p><em>- Workplace representatives: Unions train workplace representatives to assist members with job-related issues and advocate for improved working conditions and salaries.</em></p> <p><em>- Achievements: Trade unions have significantly influenced society by advocating for measures such as improved parental leave, equality legislation, better protection for migrant workers, and the national minimum wage. They have also contributed to the elimination of child labor, improved worker safety, and the reduction of working hours.</em></p> <p><em>- Challenges: In recent years, there has been a decrease in the number of trade unions, union density, and union membership in both industrialized and emerging nations, including Kazakhstan. The trade union movement in Kazakhstan has faced serious oppression, with a regressive law on trade unions adopted in 2014 and direct attacks on independent unions in 2017.</em></p> <p><em>Despite these challenges, trade unions in Kazakhstan continue to advocate for workers' rights and interests, working closely with regional and sectoral trade union groups. The FTURK, as the most significant trade union organization in the country, plays a vital role in shaping the socio-economic protection, labor law, and labor protection policies in Kazakhstan.</em></p> ZHANSAYA BEKBUTAYEVA Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 FACTORS DETERMINING THE SANSKRIT COURSE SYLLABUS DEVELOPMENT AT INDONESIAN HINDU COLLEGE https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3543 <p><em>The Sanskrit curriculum at the Bhatara Guru Hindu College was firstly implemented from 2017 and has undergone several revisions, especially the Sanskrit syllabus.

Thus, the Sanskrit syllabus includes objectives, materials, teaching methods, and assessments that suit the needs and characteristics of students.</em></p> KOMANG SUWARSINI Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 SOME LEGAL ISSUES ON CONSUMER RIGHTS PROTECTION IN THE ECONOMY SHARING INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE AND LESSONS FOR VIETNAM https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3547 <p><em>The sharing economy is considered an era-defining product of the digital economy, it inherits the values of the 4.0 technology revolution and the nature of a new business method. This business model has appeared in the world for quite a long time, but it has been mentioned a lot in Vietnam recently and the Vietnamese Government has developed a project to develop a sharing economic model. Typical sharing economy models such as GrabTaxi and Uber, Go Viet, Be, AirBnB, Triip.me, Travelmob, P2P Lending, Fintech... These models in Vietnam have brought many benefits to consumers. . However, it also poses many risks and challenges for consumers of products and services, and the issue of protecting consumer rights needs more attention.

It aims to enhance fair competition and efficient resource allocation in the economy. Globally, there are various guidelines, such as the OECD Guideline and the World Bank Toolkit on Corporate Governance of State-owned Enterprises that emphasise the importance of competitive neutrality in corporate governance of State-owned Enterprises. Many countries have also incorporated this concept into their national laws. Ethiopia has enacted several laws that endorse the fair competition of State-owned Enterprises in the market. However, there are concerns that the laws are not good enough to ensure competitive neutrality in the market. They have also been far from contemporary developments in the subject. Accordingly, this article investigates the Ethiopian competitive neutrality legal framework, and further, appraises it in light of the OECD guideline, the World Bank toolkit, and best national practices. The article finds that the legal framework involves legal issues, as well as does not grapple with the principles of competitive neutrality, as adopted in international recommendations and best practices of countries. It is not complete enough to ensure the competitive neutrality of State-owned Enterprises in the country.</em> <em>Therefore, this article suggests that the government should further reform the legislation and strengthen the competitive neutrality of State-owned enterprises. </em></p> ALEMAYEHU YISMAW DEMAMU Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 RESOLUTION OF ULAYAT LAND DISPUTES BETWEEN THE TRADITIONAL LEGAL COMMUNITIES OF THE UPPER TOR DISTRICT AND THE REGIONAL GOVERNMENT SARMI DISTRICT, PAPUA PROVINCE https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3553 <p><em>Customary land disputes often occur in villages and cities, with many problems occurring regarding customary land between customary law communities and local regional governments.

After relying on the Dutch Criminal Law as a guideline for several decades, the Indonesian government established the National Criminal Code to incorporate Indonesian values into the legal system. This research also raises two questions as problem formulation, namely whether the concordance principle is still applicable in Indonesia, and whether the development of the legal system in the country serves the best interests of the nation. To address these questions, the research adopts a prescriptive legal research method, which aims to uncover the coherence between legal norms, principles, and behavior. The study employs both a conceptual approach, to understand the underlying philosophy of the rule of law, and a historical approach, to trace the evolution of Indonesian criminal law over time. The Indonesian criminal law system has undergone significant changes, transitioning from the concordance principle to the adoption of the Dutch Criminal Code. The reforms introduced in the National Criminal Code seek to reflect a more just culture and approach to justice. The code emphasizes corrective, restorative, and rehabilitative justice, with a particular focus on prevention, the rights of victims, and the rehabilitation of offenders. It is crucial that criminal sanctions are established through legislation and adhere to the principle of proportionality. This renewal of the legal system is expected to foster a more equitable and rights-based approach to justice in Indonesia, ultimately benefiting the nation as a whole.</p> PUTU AGUS PARTHA WIJAYA, RENDY AIRLANGGA, DINDA AJENG PUSPANITA, KAUTSAR ISMAIL Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 CULTURAL HERITAGE LEGAL PROTECTION IN THE ALGERIAN LEGISLATION https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3563 <p>Cultural heritage is indubitably one of the most indispensably necessary pillars of cultures and traditions in the Algerian society in its entirety. Owing predominantly to its colossal moral and material value, the legislative authority has been over the years fully committed to putting in place all the laws that will guarantee its sustainable maintenance and ongoing conservation. Framed more lucidly, the Algerian legislator has allocated an arsenal of legal texts to classify and manage all existing categories as well sub-categories of archaeological properties. It has, likewise, devoted an independent financial budget to repair and restore what was been lost or had had its historical value downgraded. To accomplish this ensuring the highest degrees of perfection, it has resorted to the assistance of experts, inspectors as well as regular members of the civil community. Additionally, the legislator imposed stern penalties for attacks on landmark antiquities, such as theft, conversion or smuggling.</p> RABAH FEGHROUR Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-10 2024-01-10 12 1 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY DYNAMICS AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY IN HO CHI MINH CITY'S COMMERCIAL BANKS https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3569 <p><em>Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a critical aspect of contemporary business practices, gaining increased attention globally. This study, conducted in 2022 with a sample of 160 respondents from 16 different banks in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, aims to explore the relationship between CSR initiatives and financial performance in commercial banks. Despite the growing emphasis on CSR in recent years, this study highlights the need for a more nuanced understanding of how specific CSR initiatives contribute to or may not influence financial outcomes in the context of commercial banks. By employing EFA and multiple regression analyses, the research delves into the complexities of the relationship between CSR practices and financial performance. The study recognizes the evolving landscape of corporate responsibility in the Vietnamese banking sector and sheds light on the specific factors that may or may not translate into tangible financial benefits. However, the findings also indicate that not all CSR factors have a significant impact on business performance on bank sector. This research not only contributes to the existing literature but also provides practical insights for commercial banks in the research location, allowing them to refine their CSR strategies for optimal impact on business performance. The study serves as a valuable resource for academics, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the intersection of CSR and financial outcomes within the Vietnamese banking context.</em></p> Ngo Thi Thuy Linh, Nguyen Thanh Vu Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 THE ROLE OF LEADERSHIP THROUGH POLICY NETWORKING IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION AT BANDUNG TECHNOPARK https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3583 <p><em>The presence of Bandung Technopark (BTP) supports government programs in Nawacita, RPJMN 2015-2019, Presidential Regulation Number 106/2017 concerning Science and Technology Areas, as well as Law Number 11/2019 concerning National Science and Technology Science and Technology.

This qualitative study, employing legislative and conceptual analysis, aims to find a middle ground that accommodates living law while upholding legal certainty and the principle of legality. Critiques of positivism underpin the inclination to shape living law without codification, fearing it could reduce it to positive law, diminishing its essence. However, without codification, the enforcement of living law becomes challenging, resulting in legal uncertainty and potential injustice. Hence, the targeted deconstruction of the positivist paradigm in the New Penal Code doesn't call for outright elimination but advocates adopting a revisionist form of neo-positivism. The integration of living law into the legality principles framework ensures legal certainty and alignment with national criminal law, avoiding standing outside legality bounds. Consequently, the government's legal policy in the New Penal Code is considered fitting, requiring further development to address societal gaps. This research contributes to the discourse on legal theory and the evolving nature of criminal law paradigms in contemporary Indonesia.</em></p> THORIQ MULAHELA, ANDRI YANTO, FAIDATUL HIKMAH Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 Retracted https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3633 <p>Retracted</p> Retracted Copyright (c) 2024 Retracted https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 ECOSYSTEM FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF RESEARCH SKILLS INTEGRATING ICT IN HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION. https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3634 <p><em>Developing investigative skills from the earliest stages of school life is a priority in the Colombian educational system.

However, on a technical level, the implementation of elections in Indonesia exhibits several weaknesses and inconsistencies with the tenets of fiqh siyasah. Fiqh siyasah underscores elections as a conduit for people's sovereignty in selecting virtuous leaders based on the values of transcendental democracy and justice.</em></p> RAHMAT ROBUWAN, ANDRI YANTO, JEANNE DARC NOVIAYANTI MANIK, FAIDATUL HIKMAH Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES IN CRIMINAL RESPONSES TO GOODS SMUGGLING (A COMPARATIVE STUDY IN THE CRIMINAL SYSTEM OF IRAQ AND IRAN) https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3649 <p><em>Criminal reactions are the penalties specified by legislators for offenders, and the judge must rule on them if the accused is proven guilty and it cannot be applied against the convict, unless the judge clearly specifies it.

The PTA, implemented in 2012, initially focused on 4,500 educational institutions with low academic performance, reaching a coverage of 890 municipalities in the same year. The main objective of the program was to improve teaching and learning processes in the fundamental areas of mathematics and language, with a focus on two key variables for educational quality: teacher training and communication skills. Throughout these ten (10) years of implementation, the PTA has significantly strengthened the pedagogical work of primary education teachers. Important aspects such as didactics and the use of pedagogical resources have been introduced in the classrooms, contributing to the improvement of teaching quality. However, it is important to note that during the first years of implementation, the program did not have a significant impact on educational quality, which is common in short-term programs. This article will delve into the analysis of various research studies related to educational quality, with the aim of understanding the reasons why this situation was reversed over the years and the expected results were achieved.

Tourism management with the concept of halal is increasingly used by regions to attract both domestic and foreign tourists. The purpose of this research is to determine the position of laws in the context of diversity when regulating halal tourism policies. There is Islamic law that underlies the concept of halal tourism, and on the other hand, there is state law that also regulates the field of tourism. The legal research method with a statutory approach and a concept approach is used to answer the research objectives. The results showed that the enactment of laws other than state law was found in the practice of managing tourism in Indonesia. The state constitution gives authority to the regions based on their privileges to regulate and manage their regions. However, the regions are prohibited from making policies that are contrary to the principles of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. The religious legal system and the state legal system show their relationship in tourism development in Indonesia. State legal arrangements still dominate the enactment of the Islamic legal system in tourism management; this is indicated by the limitations of regulating the halal concept criteria used as parameters, which must not conflict with the Principles of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. However, the relationship between the two is also very accommodating in regulating halal tourism.</em></p> MUFARRIJUL IKHWAN, MUKHLISH , RINA YULIANTI Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 CONTRIBUTION OF THE PRAXEOLOGICAL MODEL FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF CITIZEN COMPETENCES IN HIGHER EDUCATION https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3676 <p>This reflection aims to describe the impact that praxeology has on the development of citizen competences in higher education, illustrates aspects of social responsibility, training research, Saber Pro tests, graduate training and curricular criteria at UNIMINUTO, directly relating to the two central themes.

Factors like global unrest, developmental disparities, violations of norms, and adherence to state policies contribute to the refugee phenomenon. Safeguarding refugees is a humanitarian duty rooted in international law, but national interests often determine acceptance. Political objectives have become additional criteria for refugee status. Rights and legal status include civil, political, social, and economic entitlements for citizens. Refugees possess the same inherent rights but realization depends on national and international entities addressing asylum concerns. Refugees require prior permissions citizens do not.

The advantages of non-litigation alternatives include efficiency, speed, and lower costs, in accordance with the values of Indonesian society. However, there are still obstacles such as the lack of public understanding of these advantages. The role of Notaries in providing understanding to clients and including articles of dispute resolution outside the court is the focus. The results showed that the final decision remained in the hands of the parties who signed the deed. Obstacles include rudimentary client understanding, lack of Notary Education and some arbitration-related issues. Therefore, more parties and regulatory adjustments are needed to strengthen alternative dispute resolution outside the court. This research delves deeper into the aspects of making articles related to dispute resolution outside the court by Notaries. The research uses a qualitative approach with a focus on empirical juridical aspects. It was found that the selection of out-of-court dispute resolution requires the agreement of the parties, and Notaries play a significant role in providing them with legal understanding. However, most of the deeds made by Notaries have not included articles related to out-of-court dispute resolution, due to a number of obstacles.</p> YULI PRASETYO ADHI, DEWI SULISTIANINGSIH, HERNI WIDANARTI, INDRIATI SAFITRI Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES IN CRIMINAL RESPONSES TO GOODS SMUGGLING (A COMPARATIVE STUDY IN THE CRIMINAL SYSTEM OF IRAQ AND IRAN) https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3709 <p><em>Criminal reactions are the penalties specified by legislators for offenders, and the judge must rule on them if the accused is proven guilty and it cannot be applied against the convict, unless the judge clearly specifies it.

This research is normative legal research using a statutory approach and a case approach. Sources of legal materials are primary legal materials, secondary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. The research results show that even though Indonesia has adopted the Palermo Protocol and ratified related conventions, the implementation of laws, such as Law Number 21 of 2007, still faces significant challenges. Weaknesses mainly lie in the lack of coordination between institutions, which hinders effective handling of human traffickers. This phenomenon results in the implementation of laws that are not yet fully effective in fighting these crimes. Therefore, increasing inter-institutional coordination, in-depth evaluation of the implementation of laws, and active involvement of civil society are crucial to strengthening preventive and law enforcement measures, as well as protecting human rights, especially for women and children victims who are vulnerable to becoming victims. target of human trafficking.</em></p> ALIF OKTAVIAN Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-02-16 2024-02-16 12 1 THE PRACTICAL CHALLENGES OF ELECTRONIC LITIGATION IN ALGERIAN LAW: BETWEEN ISSUES AND SOLUTIONS https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3737 <p><em>The Algerian legislature acknowledged electronic litigation since 2015 under Law No. 15-03, which pertains to modernizing justice and is titled "Remote Visual Trial."

The death sentence has a long history of serving as a dignified first step, as well as an effective deterrent and crime-prevention measure. The modern criminal justice system seeks to reform the offender rather than exacting harsh punishment. Along with the claim that the death penalty violates an individual’s right to life, there is a protracted discussion about the actual efficacy of the death sentence in preventing and deterring crime. A large number of non-fatal and economic crimes, as well as many other offences, have Bangladesh as the retentionist nation. The study makes an effort to investigate Bangladesh’s policy toward the death sentence in contemporary times, when there is a global trend to curtail its use with a view to its eventual abolition. The scholarship has acknowledged that the Constitution and other ordinary laws both have the mandatory death penalty. The study demonstrates that the State’s policymakers heavily rely on the death penalty to reduce crime, even occasionally new offences that convey the death penalty have been added to the law since the country became a signatory to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The study’s final goal is to find ways to lessen the death penalty; therefore, it displays numerous models that could work as viable approaches for policymakers to consider.</em></p> MOHAMMAD SAIFUL ISLAM Copyright (c) 2024 MOHAMMAD SAIFUL ISLAM https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 INTERNATIONAL SALES LAW AND ITS INTERPRETATION https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3746 <p><em>The study reviews and compares the sources of uniform substantive law on international sales and contracts, to give an overview of the methods elaborated to interpret them.

They have gradually confronted with the problem of interpretation and developed the rules governing interpretation, moving away from the definition of the content of some specific legal concepts towards abstract principles of construction, such as the international character of the instrument. The most influential in this area has been the regulatory approach of the Vienna Sales Convention.

ANTHONY'S ACTIVITY IN HUNGARY https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3773 <p><em>The order of the Crusaders of St. Anthony, the predecessor of the Antonites, was a lay brotherhood founded at the end of the 11th century in France. This organization differed from the other Hospitaller Crusaders in that they did not engage in warfare. Since the foundation, their task has consistently been patient care and, within that, the fight against "St. Anthony's fire": ergot poisoning. The earliest documents on the nursing activities of the Antonites in Hungary date back to the beginning of the 14th century. </em><em>The paper presents the operation of the order in Hungary by analyzing the available contemporary documents, focusing primarily on its main house, Daróc (now: Šarišské Dravce, Slovakia), and the conditions of the management of the Pozsony (now: Bratislava, Slovakia) hospital. The charters are, on the one hand, agreements regarding hospitals they operated, and on the other, documents related to their fundraising. Indulgence letters from the period of the above-mentioned preceptor Albert of Tapolca belong to the latter category. The role of the Antonites seems to decrease more and more starting from the 15th century. City councils gradually took complete control over their hospitals everywhere, and after the Reformation that spread in the meantime eventually led to the end of the role of the Antonite Order.</em></p> HABIL.

The Industrial Revolution 4.0 has forced us to change the way we judge by maximizing the use of current digital technology. Changes in legal methods not only in terms of legal actions but also in law enforcement including ways of resolving disputes. The existence of technological developments has influenced arbitration as a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) so that it has experienced developments that were initially only conventional towards online arbitration where almost all arbitration implementation from registration to awarding is carried out via the internet network (online). E-Arbitration, also known as online arbitration, has now become an attractive option for resolving disputes, therefore the existence of E-Arbitration is a law that is aspired to. The existence of E-arbitration is also regulated in Law Number 30 of 1999 concerning Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution. With E-Arbitration, it will be easier to connect parties from various countries who want to resolve disputes quickly and at a low cost. The approach method used in this research is the normative juridical approach, namely a method that uses secondary data sources, namely statutory regulations, legal theories, and the opinions of leading legal scholars, which are then analyzed and draw conclusions from the problem. which will be used to test and review secondary data</em><em>.</em></p> LUDY HIMAWAN, RETNO SARASWATI, EKO SOPONYONO Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 BUSINESS JUDGEMENT RULE AND CRIMINAL ACTS OF CORRUPTION THAT HARM THE FINANCES OF THE INDONESIAN STATE https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3786 <p><em>The emergence of various problems in the application of the principle of the Business Judgment Rule in Indonesia as well as the existence of the Board of Directors of SOEs who must be personally responsible for business decisions that are detrimental to the Indonesian state's finances.

The results show that the SOE Directors in making their business decisions by the Business Judgment Rule principles must be freed from personal responsibility as long as the policy or business decision or transaction is carried out in good faith, with full prudence, and within the scope of their responsibilities and authorities. If there is one condition that is not met, the SOE Directors can be held personally accountable.</em><em> In this case, a criminal act of corruption can be imposed because it has harmed the Indonesian state's finances.</em></p> CHANDRA NOVIARDY IRAWAN, PUJIYONO, IRMA CAHYANINGTYAS Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 ASSESSING JUDGE'S ROLE IN DIVERTING SERIOUS OFFENDERS: PROGRESSIVITY IN JUVENILE CASES WITH 7+ YEAR IMPRISONMENT POTENTIAL https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3787 <p><em>Purpose:</em> <em>The primary objective of this research is to investigate and analyze discrepancies in the application of diversion requirements, with a specific focus on juvenile offenders facing potential imprisonment sentences exceeding 7 years.</em></p> <p><em>Theoretical Framework:</em> <em>The theoretical conception of </em><em>this research</em><em> centers on the idea of restorative justice and rehabilitation. It assumes that young offenders, due to their age and potential for change, should be diverted away from traditional punitive measures like imprisonment. Instead, diversion programs aim to address the root causes of delinquency, provide support and guidance, and involve the juvenile in repairing harm caused to victims and the community. This approach is grounded in the belief that intervention and redirection can prevent further criminal behavior, foster personal growth, and ultimately benefit both the young offender and society by promoting reintegration and minimizing recidivism.</em></p> <p><em>Design/Methodology/Approach:</em> <em>This research adopts a dual-method approach, combining normative and empirical methodologies. The research employs descriptive research methods to examine how the judiciary handles cases involving minors eligible for diversion under the Regulation of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia Number 4 of 2014 and Article 5 paragraph (1) of the Judicial Power Act.</em></p> <p><em>Findings:</em> <em>The study's findings emphasize the need for the judiciary to embrace a broader concept of justice within the societal context. While legal certainty remains important, the research reveals the significance of societal fairness in the implementation of diversion programs. It highlights the gap between strict legal requirements and the principles of social justice, which should be addressed to facilitate more effective diversion processes.</em></p> <p><em>Research, Practical &amp; Social Implications:</em> <em>This research holds several implications. Firstly, it underscores the importance of aligning judicial practices with the evolving dynamics of society. Practical implications include the recommendation for legal reforms, particularly within the framework of the Juvenile Criminal Justice System, to adapt to changing community needs. This may involve revising the criteria for criminal acts eligible for diversion, allowing the justice system to better serve the interests of both minors and society at large.</em></p> <p><em>Originality/Value: This study contributes original insights by shedding light on the divergence between legal norms and the concept of social justice, especially in the context of diversion for juvenile offenders. It emphasizes the necessity for legal reforms to ensure that the justice system remains responsive to the evolving needs and expectations of the community. Ultimately, the research highlights the importance of harmonizing legal requirements with broader societal values for the benefit of juvenile offenders and society as a whole.</em></p> FADLI ALFARISI, UMI ROZAH, PUJIYONO PUJIYONO Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 AI DRIVEN DISTRUPTION: TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT ON E-COMMERCE MARKETPLACES IN CHINA https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3789 <p><em>This article aims to explore the complex dynamics of trademark infringement on e-commerce platforms in China, where AI plays a significant role in facilitating online transactions and complicating the enforcement of trademark rights.

However, the search for this truth remains relative, as the legislator has preserved a role for will in proving filiation through the means of recognition of parentagein and the testimony of witnesses, which are based on honesty and truthfulness. Recognition of parentagein is considered one of the most important methods of proving filiation, although its application may raise various practical issues. These issues revolve around the conditions for its acceptance and reliance in proving filiation, especially if the legal marriage is absent in the person who acknowledges paternity or maternity.

Electronic transactions are a reality in today's world and are developing rapidly, but they face a problem related to proof. They require means other than the traditional ones in order to be consistent with legal solutions. Electronic transactions do not require specific legislation, except for electronic proof. As for contracts, they are subject to the general rules of contract theory, which, according to some opinions, are sufficient to accommodate this modern means of contracting. As far as Algerian civil law is concerned, some amendments have been introduced, but these are limited to clarifying the legal validity of proof by electronic means.</p> AZEDDINE WAFA, LARBES SAMRA Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 PUBLIC PROCUREMENT CONTROL MECHANISMS IN ALGERIA IN THE LIGHT OF LAW 23-12 ESTABLISHING THE GENERAL RULES FOR PUBLIC PROCUREMENT. https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3805 <p><em>In recent years, Algeria has combined the models of a welfare state, based on public spending to provide services to its citizens, and a regulated state, open to other actors that contribute to meeting the needs of the population. The state has issued legal texts to protect public funds from waste and misappropriation, and to regulate contractual relations with economic operators involved in development efforts, seeking economic efficiency in spending and respect for the rights of these operators. In this context, laws regulating public procurement play a role, one of the main pillars of which is Law 23-12, which establishes the general rules for public procurement.

The Green Library Movement (GLM) refers to the collective effort of various stakeholders such as libraries, towns, and academic campuses to reduce eco-degradation and promote sustainable practices in libraries. This manuscript deliberates the conditions necessary for a library to be considered "green," the role of librarians in this movement, the key features of green libraries, and various initiatives in India. Additionally, the paper provides a summary of the GLM and role of the librarian in the recent times in promoting environmentally sustainable practices. The major environmental issues of the present era like waste management, water and energy conservation and climate change continue to affect communities, libraries need to adapt their information resources and programs to address these burning issues. Recently, there is an augmentation in the green library structures and awareness about GLM across India. The present work suggests that the librarians must make themselves updated regarding the ongoing sustainability concepts with regards to the green library and GLM and also encourage environmental sustainable practices and spread awareness.</p> POONAM RANI, RAJIV CHOPRA Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF INMATE REHABILITATION UNDER JINAYAH LAW AND CRIMINAL LAW IN CLASS IIB ACEH SINGKIL DETENTION CENTER https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3835 <p>This research aims to comparatively analyze the coaching of prisoners who violate jinayah law and criminal law in Class IIB Aceh Singkil Detention Center.

The problem in the subject addressed is justified because the business environment continues to fail women, in terms of unequal job opportunities, discrimination, harassment, wages and often little spirit of solidarity with them. These are some of the points of coincidence of international reports such as Bloomberg Businessweek, UN Women, or the follow-up to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially goal 5 which explicitly refers to gender equality. The research presents a qualitative, descriptive approach. It is based on updated documents such as texts and articles related to the aforementioned topic. The position in small and medium companies in the city of Monteria has been consulted, with reference to gender inequality in managerial positions. In the interpretation of the results of female participation in management positions in a follow-up of companies, it was found that between 2010 and 2015, 68% of managers were men and 32% were women in the SMEs of Monteria; in 2021 practically 58% are male managers, while 42% are female managers, showing a gradual increase in the participation of this gender in the SMEs of the city. Throughout history women have been seen in a passive role that society itself has imposed on them, but we have already seen how women have been leaders, have been great entrepreneurs, without leaving the role of being mother, wife and daughter.</p> NELSON FIGUEROA MENDOZA, BENJAMÍN CASTILLO OSORIO, FRANCISCO BARCENAS MERLANO, FREDY ANAYA YANCES Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 STATE OF THE ART ON PRINCIPAL LEADERSHIP AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3838 <p>The approach to the school principal's leadership has been gaining importance since the early years of the 21st century, given that the school of this era faces challenges that require not only the attention of academic processes, but also school management from the planning, direction and evaluation of measures and strategies in the administrative, financial, directive and community areas in order to offer a quality education.

The main objective of this research is to analyze the differences, similarities, as well as the social and legal implications of these distinct inheritance systems. The research methodology involves a literature review and an analysis of relevant legislation concerning inheritance laws in the three legal systems under study. Data is collected from reliable primary and secondary sources, including Islamic legal texts, relevant statutes and court decisions in Anglo-Saxon law, and regulations and legal precedents in Continental European law. The findings of this study reveal that Islamic law governs inheritance based on Sharia principles, which divide the inheritance proportionally according to family relationships and religious provisions. Anglo-Saxon law adheres to the principles of intestate succession, where property is distributed to heirs based on the line of descent and specific rules in the law. On the other hand, the Continental European legal system bases the distribution of inheritance on a broader concept of lineage, encompassing more distant relatives as heirs. The social implications of these findings highlight the differences in how societies organize inheritance and the rights of heirs, which can impact fairness and harmony within families. From a legal perspective, the implications encompass variations in the protection of inheritance rights and the legal processes applicable in each legal system.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> ASRIANTI SUKIRMAN, OYO SUNARYO MUKHLAS, JANUARIANSYAH ARFAIZAR, ALAMSYAH Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 ENHANCING PRESCRIPTION CONTROL: A MECHANISM TO CURB THE DISSEMINATION OF PSYCHOACTIVE SUBSTANCES https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3847 <p><em>The medical prescription is a document issued by a licensed physician, specifying the medication to be dispensed by a pharmacist.

However, it can be exploited by some individuals to facilitate the acquisition and distribution of psychoactive substances through forgery, formal alteration, or obtaining them through favoritism. Therefore, controlling prescriptions and increasing the responsibility of both the physician in issuing them and the pharmacist in dispensing them has become necessary to combat the trafficking and distribution of psychoactive substances, as enshrined by Algerian legislation in Law No.18-11 on Health and Executive Decree No.19-397 on the administrative, technical, and security control measures for psychoactive substances.

The major issue which raises legal and environmental implications is that mining of tiger’s eye within the Banded Iron Formation (BIF) of the Asbestos Hills Subgroup in Griqualand West Basin results in exposure of workers and the environment to the harmful crocidolite asbestos fibres.</p> <p>Therefore, the study investigated whether the banning of asbestos mining include the prohibition of tiger’s eye mining and identify the legal and regulatory implications resulting from the mining. The DPSIR (Drivers, Pressures, State, Impacts and Responses) method was used to assess the implications of mining tiger’s eye in the context of sustainable extraction and use of the nation's mineral resources.

The established principle in criminal law is that the husband is not punished if he forces his wife against her will, as marriage grants him the right to have sexual relations with her even without her consent. However, the topic of marital rape has recently gained international attention, with many countries, especially Scandinavian ones, believing that marriage does not justify sexual intercourse without the consent of both parties. This is because the matter is primarily linked to the freedom to engage in sexual relations. The importance of this issue is further highlighted when referring to Algerian criminal law, which exhibits a lot of terminological confusion and lacks precision in defining the crime of rape, as it does not explicitly exclude the wife. This has led us to address this issue, hoping to find a solution based on what is stated in Islamic law.</p> ABDELHALIM BENMECHRI , HACINA CHERROUN Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 AUTHORIZATION OF PROPERTY AS A MECHANISM FOR COMBATING ADMINISTRATIVE CORRUPTION IN ALGERIA https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3902 <p><em>Administrative corruption is the most serious type of corruption ever, as it cripples management and renders it unable to carry out the tasks required of it.

This research aims to find out, from a theoretical and practical perspective, how RBF principles provide a framework for more effective and sustainable fisheries management, analyze how these principles are adopted in current capture fisheries management regulations in Indonesia, what issues and challenges are encountered, and suggest ways to overcome them. This research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. The data used is secondary data from the literature which includes primary legal materials such as international and national fisheries law (customs) and secondary legal materials such as books, journals, and research results relevant to this research's objective. The results of this research show that until the end of 2022, capture fisheries regulations and policies in Indonesia are generally still based on open access and regulated open access, while rights-based fisheries management is implemented in a relatively limited scope, namely in the form of fisheries management by Customary Law Communities. The issuance of Government Regulation No. 11 of 2023 concerning Measured Fishing (PIT) marks the start of the broader application of RBF principles in capture fisheries management regulations in Indonesia. As a new regulation, PIT faces several issues and challenges, including unconsistency government policy, lack of fisheries scientific data, lack of local government involvement in public decision-making, and inadequate technology and facilities for monitoring and law enforcement. Therefore, the central government needs to evaluate and make improvements in several ways so that this policy can be implemented in accordance with its objectives.</p> RUSMANA , HUALA ADOLF , IDRIS , R.

Islamic insurance, which integrates Islamic economic principles, operates based on the concepts of profit sharing and solidarity, offering ethical and faith-based financial solutions, especially in Indonesia where the growth of the Islamic insurance market reflects the high demand for financial products that are in line with Islamic values. However, there are challenges in integrating Islamic principles into conventional insurance frameworks, requiring a more adaptive and inclusive legislative approach. This study aims to examine the legal analysis and business practices of Islamic insurance in Indonesia from the perspective of Sharia principles in the insurance sector. The research method used in this study is normative juridical with a conceptual approach and legislation. This study found that the Sharia insurance industry in Indonesia has established a solid foundation by adopting Sharia principles and is supported by regulations such as Law No. 24 of 2004 and POJK No. 6/POJK.05/2016. Despite challenges such as lack of understanding and support from the government, the sector has recorded significant growth, driven by demand from the Muslim community for ethical financial services. This conducive legal framework demonstrates Indonesia's commitment to developing an inclusive and sustainable Islamic financial ecosystem, potentially cementing the country's position as a global Islamic economic hub.</em></p> MIA RASMIATY Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 THE DECLARATION OF THE ATRATO RIVER AS A SUBJECT OF RIGHTS, THE DISCUSSION BETWEEN BIOCENTRISM AND HUMANISM IN THE COLOMBIAN CONSTRUCTION OF THE CONCEPT OF SUBJECT OF RIGHTS. https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3943 <p><em>Since the birth of the 1991 Constitution, the Colombian legal system has been responsible for developing a whole construction of fundamental rights around the concept of human dignity, which serves as the central core of the legal system.

In this study, we followed the analytical and comparative approach, and it became clear that the punitive policy is weak considering these crimes as misdemeanors. Even in cases of aggravating the punishment, the penalties remain weak, in addition to not punishing the intermediary in the crime despite the seriousness of their role and the lack of corporate liability. The punishment for attempted crimes is less severe than for completed ones. We propose that the Libyan legislator should consider the crime as a felony, with the intensification of current penalties, punishment of intermediaries, establishment of corporate liability, and equal punishment for attempted crimes to that of completed ones.</em></p> MASHAALLAH OTHMAN ALZWAE Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 DOGMATIC ANALYSIS OF THE TENSION BETWEEN CREATIVE ACCOUNTING AND INTERNATIONAL ACCOUNTING LAW https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3947 <p><em>In this study, a comprehensive analysis of creative accounting and its relationship with international accounting law was carried out. Creative accounting involves the manipulation of financial results to reflect a positive image of the company, influenced by various incentives and practices that can generate significant impacts on stakeholders and market perception. Definitions, principles, cases and regulatory frameworks were reviewed, highlighting how creative accounting can affect financial reporting and economic decisions. Gaps and tensions in the international regulatory framework were identified that could favor creative accounting practices, despite efforts to promote transparency and reliability in financial reporting. It was concluded that it is crucial to strengthen regulation and oversight, promote education and awareness, encourage ongoing research, and foster international cooperation to address the challenges associated with creative accounting. In this way, risks can be mitigated and confidence in financial markets can be strengthened, contributing to sustainable economic development and global financial stability.</em></p> DOUGLAS JAHIR MORELO PEREIRA1, DIOCELINA TORRES CASTRO, JOSE MIGUEL CARO ARROYO , CARLOS ANTONIO LOZANO FARIÑO Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 TRAINING OF GENERIC COMPETENCES IN HIGHER EDUCATION https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3948 <p><em>The formation of generic competencies in pedagogical students is essential for preparing them to excel in the multifaceted role of an educator.

It is not uncommon for customary rights disputes to occur among customary law communities. The aim of this research is to determine the resolution of customary law community land rights disputes in Waropen Regency. The approach method used is normative and empirical, namely research by examining applicable laws and regulations by looking at the reality that occurs in the field. The results of this research reveal that the resolution of disputes over the customary law rights of the Waropen community among village residents is usually resolved through customary law which in the Waropen language is called "Woidama". Woidama means deliberation. The house where the gathering is held is the sera house (tribal chief's house) because the one who will lead the traditional assembly is Sera. Problem solving starts from Sera Titibi (Deputy). If Sera Titibi cannot solve it, then the problem is handed over to Sera Bawa. In terms of solving the land problem, if there are still problems, it is recommended to just eat land as a way to solve the problem. They believe this will prove who owns the land. However, with the formation of the Waropen Traditional Council, unresolved problems can be escalated to the Traditional Council. The Waropen Traditional Council has its own management structure with a cabinet composition elected within Waropen Regency. The Traditional Council in this area functions as a protector for indigenous Papuans, and as a channel for messages among Papuans for the government, especially in the Waropen district government area. At the district level there is a District Traditional Council and at the district level there is a District Traditional Council. Meanwhile, in each village, village-level traditional council management has also been formed. The structure and management of the Traditional Council in Waropen district consists of: General Chair, Deputy Chair I, Deputy Chair II, Deputy Chair III, Deputy Chair IV, Secretary I, Secretary II, Treasurer I, Treasurer II, Commissions (consisting of 4 commissions who is in charge of programs as a program driver for the local Traditional Council).</em></p> DANIEL TANATI Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE LEVEL OF SOCIAL RECIPROCITY AMONG THE DIFFERENT GENDERS OF GENERATION Z - AN INDIAN PERSPECTIVE https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3979 <p>Being reciprocal is a natural human tendency. In social psychology, reciprocity refers toa&nbsp;social behavioural pattern of responding to a positive action with another similar action with a positive connotation, rewarding like for like. This study attempts to do a comparison between the reciprocity levels of young adults of 18-24 years. The theoretical framework of this study is taken from the R model that is being shaped by the initial works of &nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Berne">Eric Berne</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Bowlby">John Bowlby</a>, and&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Kohlrieser">George Kohlrieser</a>. According to the R-model, reciprocity is an important element that helps in the formation and maintenance of healthy and sustainable human relationships. A questionnaire survey method was employed to collect data which resulted in 140 responses. The study variables included traits like trust, self-assurance, emotions, memory, analytical thinking,altruism, etc.All the statistical analysis about the study is performed using SPSS software and the hypothesis framed could be tested successfully to reach the aims of the study. The study ends with the conclusion that gender does not play much role in deciding the reciprocity level. Other factors like personality traits and the level of altruism have a major role in making an individual reciprocal.</p> DEEPA CHANDRASEKHAR, S.

In order to test the hypotheses of this research, four regression models have been used using the mixed method with random effects. The results of the estimation of these models show that there is a significant relationship between profit quality factors such as the quality of accruals, profit continuity, profit predictability and profit smoothing with the price-to-income ratio as the cost of equity of companies accepted in There is the Tehran Stock Exchange. In addition, according to the positive coefficient of the company's profit quality variables, it can be concluded that increasing the quality of accruals, continuity of profit, predictability of profit and smoothing of profit will increase the ratio of cost of equity and vice versa</em>.</p> JAMAL VALIPOUR Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 SPECIFIC CHARACTER OF ARBITRARY REGULATION IN VARIOUS FORMS OF APHASIA https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3995 <p><em>The relevance of the research presented in this article is determined by the high prevalence of speech disorders among patients of various profiles. Currently, aphasia accompanies various diseases, which may naturally affect the formation and development of arbitrary regulation among this category of patients, disrupting their processes of self-control in behavioral and emotional reactions. The aim of the article is to identify the features of arbitrary regulation in case of sensory and motor aphasia. The method of studying of the outlined problem is the diagnosis of manifestations of human behavior at the level of arbitrary regulation. For this purpose, the tests "Serial Picture and Story Arrangement" and "Path Tracing" were used. They allow assessing the patient's abilities to concentrate attention, analyze speech text, and exercise emotional and motor self-control. The parameters identified during the study made it possible to distinguish differences in the manifestation of arbitrary regulation at the level of patients with motor and sensory aphasia. In case of sensory aphasia, aspects of low attention concentration and programming activity are observed; a high threshold of emotional excitability alongside with the unstable psycho-emotional sphere can be detected. </em></p> <p><em>At the same time, patients with motor aphasia demonstrate the ability to concentrate attention on task performance, stability of psycho-emotional indicators, and high abilities of understanding and analyzing the speech addressed to them. </em></p> <p><em>The data obtained during the study will allow specialists to improve the diagnostic, communicative, and neurorehabilitation procedures, thereby enhancing the possibilities for speech restoration in patients with aphasia, which may have practical value for the medical-social sphere.</em></p> <p> </p> HASSAN SHAFAEI Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 10.52783/rlj.v12i1.3995 JUDICIAL COOPERATION WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE STATUTE OF THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/3996 <p><em>The Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC) mandates the establishment</em> <em>of robust cooperation mechanisms for international criminal justice.

With political conflict spilling into the streets annually it has become apparent that Thailand’s political system has failed in its functional capacity as a conflict mediation/resolution mechanism. In the face of an increasingly assertive rural population and consecutive electoral victories by pro-Thaksin political parties Thailand’s conservative traditional elite have increasingly turned to the judicial branch of government in order to counter threats to their rule and overturn majoritarian electoral democracy. In this paper we argue that the politicization of Thailand’s judiciary since 2006 has undermined the legitimacy of Thailand’s courts as well as devolved dangerously into a system of Un-rule of law.</em></p> WILLIAM J.

Corruption is not limited to lower-level government employees; it has permeated the highest echelons and decision-making bodies of the Indonesian government. Whether acknowledged or not, corruption severely impacts state finances, the national economy, and impedes overall national development. Consequently, combating corrupt practices must commence at the policymaking level and extend down to the lowest levels of implementation. Since the inception of Law No. 3 of 1971 aimed at eradicating criminal acts of corruption, subsequently amended to Law No. 31 of 1999 and further revised to Law No. 20 of 2001, numerous individuals involved in corruption have been convicted. However, the existing criminal justice approach to law enforcement has proven insufficient in recovering state financial losses and deterring both corrupt individuals and potential offenders. Consequently, it is imperative to explore innovative approaches to law enforcement to effectively address corruption in Indonesia. One promising approach is transitioning from a punitive criminal justice model to a restorative justice framework. Restorative justice not only seeks accountability for wrongdoing but also focuses on repairing the harm caused to victims and communities. Embracing restorative justice principles in combating corruption could offer a more comprehensive and sustainable solution to this pervasive issue in Indonesia.</p> ARMUNANTO HUTAHAEAN, Copyright (c) 2024 ARMUNANTO HUTAHAEAN, TOMSON SITUMEANG https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 CHARACTERISTICS OF SHARES IN ALGERIAN COMMERCIAL LAW ОСОБЕННОСТИ АКЦИЙ В АЛЖИРСКОМ КОММЕРЧЕСКОМ ПРАВЕ https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/4023 <p>Joint-stock companies depend for their existence and throughout their lifetime on providing capital by issuing securities, of which shares are one of the most important. This importance stems from their role in financing the necessary capital for establishing a joint-stock company. Shares are considered a permanent source of financing for the company as they are securities without a fixed term and extend throughout the company's life. A share represents a shareholder's stake in the company, i.e., the portion he contributes either at its establishment or when increasing its capital. The Algerian commercial legislator has classified shares into several types and forms. However, the common characteristic among all these shares listed by the legislator is their tradability.</p> YASSAD FADILA, KAWTAR KANTAR Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 THE ETHICALIZATION OF ELECTORAL WORK IN ALGERIA: AN ANALYTICAL DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF THE PROVISIONS OF ORDER 21-01 https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/4031 <p>Through the provisions of Order No. 21-01, which includes the organic law of elections, the Algerian legislator adopted a series of measures to ethicalize the electoral process across its various stages to ensure its integrity and smooth conduct.

The historic decision that decriminalized consenting gay conduct was a major victory in the fight for equality. But it's important to understand that, despite its significance, this legislative shift is only the start of a much-needed shift in public opinion. LGBTQ people have suffered greatly, sometimes even from inside their own families and society at large. The community has been forced to the periphery of understanding and acceptance time and time again.</p> <p>Although the Indian Penal Code, 1860 formerly had a particular section that dealt with same-sex desire, the historic Navtej Singh Johar case compelled an analysis of these antiquated statutes. By decriminalizing consenting same-sex sexual behavior (Section 377, IPC, 1860), the Honourable Supreme Court made a daring move. It's important to remember that section 377 of IPC, 1860, still applies and punishes nonconsensual intercourse. Even if legalization is an important step, it is not enough to provide LGBTQ people the social and legal respect they are due. This research paper aims to offer a perceptive synopsis of the current situation that this minority group is facing. It aims to spread knowledge and debunk the damaging myths that have supported their marginalization. This research is about to illuminate the difficulties faced by people in this community by utilizing an abundance of social data and behavioral patterns. By doing this, we hope to promote a more accepting society and highlight the reality that these persons are just like everyone else and should be treated with respect and dignity they are neither unique nor odd.</p> SIMRAT, Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 PARAMETERS OF THE REASON FOR SPECIAL CRIMINAL REMOVAL IN THE CRIMINAL ACT OF INSULTING THE PRESIDENT AND/ OR DEPUTY PRESIDENT https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/4033 <p><em>Currently, a new Criminal Code has been passed on December 6, 2022. One of the articles passed is about the criminal act of Contempt of the President or Vice President which until now has become problematic because it is considered to violate freedom of expression. However, there are specific grounds for criminal removal if it is done in the public interest or in self-defense. The issue is what parameters can be used as a basis for the act to be in the public interest and self-defense. The research method in this paper entirely uses literature studies (normative juridical), in addition to analyzing existing legal theories and legal principles but will also carry out legal interpretation using legal discovery methods in the form of interpretation or hermeneutics. The result of this study is that the parameters of the reason for the abolition of special crimes "in the public interest" that eliminate the unlawful nature of the act of attacking the honor, dignity, and dignity of the President and/or Vice President are accusations against the President and/or Vice President must be true in fact, meet the values of decency and fairness and are intended to protect the wider community. While the reason for the abolition of a special crime of self-defense has parameters that there must be an attack first, the attack can be in the form of his dignity and dignity, decency, property, body/life which must be unlawful in the sense that the action cannot be justified based on applicable laws and regulations, and the person attacked then accuses the President and/or Vice President can be justified if the accusation It really happened (the fact). Thus, guidelines are needed to provide interpretation of the implementation of the special criminal removal reasons so that they can be used as a guideline for law enforcement officials in enforcing the law in the event of an alleged criminal act of insulting the President and/or Vice President.</em></p> NANDA YOGA ROHMANA, Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 1687 1697 PRAJURU DESA’S ROLE IN MEDIATING INHERITANCE RIGHT DISPUTES FOR MEN “NYEBURIN” AFTER DIVORCE IN TABANAN REGENCY https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/4035 <p><em>The purpose of this study was to analyze the role of traditional village prajuru in mediating inheritance rights disputes for men with “nyeburin” status after divorce in Tabanan Regency.

It seems like we are moving away from how things used to be, even compared to 10 years ago. Today, things are different in the world compared to the time when the United States had a lot of power and acted on its own. We need new ways to understand what's happening internationally. After 2007 and 2008, when the United States became less powerful, countries like Russia and China wanted to change how the world works. Russia is a big player in criticizing the United States' one-sided actions and trying to bring back a system with different powers. After the Eurasianist took control of Russia's policy, they wanted to become a powerful and influential country in the world. They saw that the United States wasn't as dominant in some regions, so they wanted to use regionalism to have more influence, especially in areas like the Middle East and Eastern Europe. The research looks at how Russia's foreign policy has changed in the new world order, and how its relationship with Iran has evolved. It has been found that Russia now focuses on building strong ties and working closely with Iran, which has had a big impact on Iran's national interests, especially in terms of forming alliances and working together on military and security issues.</p> ARMIN GHALAMKARI Copyright (c) 2024 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 2024-01-04 2024-01-04 12 1 COMMERCIAL ANTI-DUMPING, MEANS TO PROTECT FREE COMPETITION IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE RULES AND ALGERIAN LEGISLATION https://russianlawjournal.org/index.php/journal/article/view/4041 <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Free competition is considered a fundamental objective of the global trading system based on free trade. However, dumping can undermine this trading system and is an illegal international trade practice that is anti-competitive. Dumping disrupts market equilibrium and circumvents the laws of supply and demand. Therefore, the fight against commercial dumping is one of the most important tools to protect free competition in the international trading system. In this regard, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) has developed a comprehensive agreement called the Anti-Dumping Agreement, which deals with the implementation of Article VI of the GATT 1994. This agreement establishes strict procedures and measures to protect free international trade competition against dumping and to promote liberalised foreign trade.

In this situation, the way Beijing deals with countries in the Middle East, like Iran and Saudi Arabia, shows that Beijing is practical and likes to work with many different countries. In this study, the authors looked at how China's actions in the Middle East, particularly in relation to Tehran and Riyadh, could affect their foreign policy. They focused on China's "Belt and Road" plan and other partnerships. The study found that China has big goals for the next twenty years and their actions in the Middle East will be important, regardless of any competition within the country. Actors and following programs like B&amp;R. The research shows that China's leaders are taking careful diplomatic steps, and this is happening at the same time as the United States is becoming less influential in the Middle East. Conversely, the relationships with Tehran and Riyadh are influenced by Janusi's approach focusing on practical interests of the country, which also indirectly challenges Washington's unilateral actions. In this case, Beijing's plan is based on working with many countries and through trade and partnerships. In recent years (especially after 2017), it has also grown to include other important areas.
