Progressive law puts forward the sociology of law rather than legal certainty which is the focus of legal positivism. In Indonesia, this law was coined by Satjipto Rahardjo. This study aims to determine the formulation of progressive law in future criminal law, and to determine the actualization of the concept of progressive law in regulating corruption in Indonesia. The research method used is a normative legal research method with statute and conceptual approaches. The technique of collecting legal materials in this study is a descriptive method that aims to obtain the meaning of reality related to the problems to be discussed and solved in this study. The results show that in the current Criminal Code Bill, progressive law has been regulated, to be precise in Article 2 paragraph (1) and (2). Progressive law is also regulated in Law no. 48 of 2009 concerning Judicial Power. Then, the actualization of progressive law in regulating corruption in Indonesia is a judge with the powers that take into account the sociological context of society in making decisions. Judges, prosecutors and lawyers can certainly discuss together in eradicating corruption. Efforts are also being made to reconstruct and redefine the power of law enforcement. This arrangement can also encourage the KPK to be more progressive in eradicating corruption, as well as building law enforcers who have morality so that they can become role models and increase public participation, for example by forming NGOs in preventing or fighting corruption in various agencies.

The products produced by the creative economy will never be separated from the intellectual property in it, especially brands. However, the problem is that there are still many creative economy actors who do not register their product brands. This study uses a socio-legal research method with a statutory approach and a sociological approach. The results of this study indicate that a new brand will occur after the brand has been registered. Legal protection for creative economy product brands can be in the form of preventive protection and repressive protection. Preventive protection is provided by preventing the occurrence of trademark infringement to encourage trademark owners to register their trademarks to be legally protected. Meanwhile, repressive protection is carried out to deal with violations of trademark rights under applicable laws and regulations through judicial institutions and other law enforcement officers such as the police, Civil Servant Investigators, and the prosecutor's office to take action against violations of trademark rights. In the case of a request for violation of trademark rights, it is filed through the Ministry of Law and Human Rights.

<table width="595" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" width="387"><p><em>This article aims to answer whether vaccination is a right or an obligation and how criminal law and Qiyas Shafi’i Mazhab views the basic provisions of criminal law against vaccination objectors. By combining doctrinal and socio-legal research method, this article concludes that vaccination is an obligation because a person's personal right to choose health services, especially COVID-19 vaccination has turned into a public right. Vaccination is the government's obligation to protect public health as part of meeting health needs, following the mandate of the constitution and human rights. According to the relative punishment theory, the application of criminal sanctions is an effort made to maintain public order and peace of society, not as a means of repaying the perpetrator's mistakes. Thus, the sanctions imposed on the perpetrator are solely to provide fear so that they do not repeat their actions and other people do not follow them. There are three main objectives of relative theory, namely prevention, prevention, and reform. Whereas Qiyas Shafi'i Mazhab puts forward the application of qiyas as a justification for imposing criminal sanctions against vaccination objectors. Because a person is prohibited from doing something that endangers himself and others, punishment according to the Qiyas Shafi'i Mazhab can be applied. There are similarities between criminal law and Qiyas Shafi'i Mazhab to a view of the obligation to vaccinate, that is, both allow the reduction of individual human rights for the sake of common interests. Ultimately, this article recommends the need to regulate the handling of COVID-19 vaccination objectors through act so that vaccination and law enforcement can run comprehensively, not partially </em></p></td></tr></tbody></table>

Corruption is considered a great crime and requires special handling. In handling corruption, special handling is needed by using the proof reversed or reversal of the burden of proof but in a balanced manner. The purpose of this study is to explain the reverse evidence of corruption from a human rights perspective. This research uses the empirical normative legal research method, namely the combination of normative legal provisions (laws) with practical elements (legal events in society/social elements). The study results state that the theory of reverse proof of corruption cases based on a human rights perspective does not violate the principles and respect for the rights of the defendants in the general principles of criminal law.
