This article analyzes the modern problems of Interpol’s participation in counteraction and investigation of terrorist acts. It explores the peculiarities of acts of political and criminal terrorism, as well as substantiates the special legal and organizational-methodological significance of the antiterrorist work of the International Criminal Police Organization. The goal of this research is to assess Interpol’s role in counteraction of terrorism in the modern period. The author concludes that Interpol plays a direct role in prevention and investigation of terrorist acts, simultaneously solving the tasks of coordination of the work of law enforcement agencies of states and transnational taskforces. Realization of Interpol’s full potential in counteraction of terrorism is impeded by the absence of unity of approaches towards the criminal legal definition of terrorism, absence of opportunity to take part in investigation of domestic terrorism and the existence of a number of advantages among people justifying their actions by political motives, versus those committing similar crimes under common criminal motivation – financial gain.

Cash waqf in Indonesia has been long enough implemented based on some rules enacted by government and other rules defined by The Waqf Board of Indonesia (BWI). However, the implementation of cash waqf has not reached the level of success. Therefore, this article studies the application of cash waqf law in Indonesia according to Friedman’s legal system theory. The legal system theory of Friedman firstly looks at the substance of the law, which is the rules or regulations; and secondly it examines the structure of the law, encompassing the law enforcement agencies, such as judge, prosecutor, police and legal counselors. And lastly the theory examines the element of legal culture, which is a response from Muslim society. The first two examinations indicate that there is nothing to be a problem. But from the last examination there is a problem regarding the trust from Muslim society. From the legal culture point of view, the implementation of cash waqf by the government, which is performed by BWI, needs attracting society’s credentials in order to improve and maximize the performance of cash waqf in Indonesia.
