Hakim memiliki peranan penting sebagai aparat penegak hukum dalam proses penegakan hukum di Indonesia, sehingga harus memperhatikan tujuan hukum. Peranan hakim memiliki konsekuensi terhadap pertanggungjawaban hakim yang sangat berat, dimana hakim memiliki tanggung jawab terhadap tuhan yang maha esa, terhadap bangsa dan negara, terhadap diri sendiri, terhadap hukum, terhadap para pihak dan terhadap mayarakat. Hakim dan masyarakat merupakan unsur yang tidak bisa dilepaskan dalam suatu sistem hukum. Hakim sebagai produk masyarakat dan budaya tempat dia berasal dan berada. Fungsi kehakiman adalah memutus sengketa antara individu dengan individu, individu dengan masyarakat, bahkan individu atau masyarakat dengan negara; membentuk atau membuat policy atau kebijakan.</em></p>

Sistem peradilan pidana harus selalu mempromosikan kepentingan hukum dan keadilan. Tetapi terdapat pandangan salah bahwa ukuran keberhasilan penegakan hukum hanya ditandai dengan keberhasilan mengajukan tersangka ke pengadilan dan kemudian dijatuhi hukuman. Seharusnya ukuran keberhasilan penegakan hukum oleh aparat penegak hukum ditandai dengan tercapainya nilai-nilai keadilan di dalam masyarakat. Kepolisian sebagai alat negara yang berperan dalam menegakkan hukum diharapkan dapat merespon hal ini dengan menggunakan mekanisme restorative justice . Tulisan ini akan membahas mengapa mekanisme restorative justice bisa dijadikan alternatif penegakan hukum oleh polisi; bagaimana prospek penerapan mekanisme restorative justice yang dilakukan oleh Polisi; serta bagaimana mekanisme restorative justice yang dilakukan oleh polisi dalam sistem hukum nasional. Dengan menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dapat disimpulkan bahwa dengan menjadikan restorative justice sebagai pendekatan maka ada beberapa keuntungan yang bisa didapatkan. Pertama , masyarakat diberikan ruang untuk menangani sendiri permasalahan hukumnya yang dirasakan lebih adil. Kedua , beban negara dalam beberapa hal menjadi berkurang. Polisi dapat melaksanakan mekanisme restorative justice melalui diskresi yang dimilikinya karena hal merupakan kelengkapan dari sistem pengaturan oleh hukum itu sendiri. Pelaksanaan restorative justice oleh Polri dalam perspektif sistem hukum nasional dapat diterima apabila dilaksanakan berdasar falsafah negara Pancasila, menjamin keadilan serta perlindungan hukum terhadap HAM. Untuk menjamin adanya keseragaman dalam implementasinya, diperlukan suatu norma atau kaidah untuk memberikan legitimasi agar segala tindakan yang dilakukan dalam implementasi restorative justice tidak dianggap ilegal.<p>The Criminal Justice System should be promoting interest of law and justice. However, there is a mistake of view that measuring success on law enforcement simply characterized with success filed a suspect to court and sentenced. Supposed to be success measure of law enforcement by law enforcement officers marked by the achievement of value of justice in society. The police as a state of tool who role in enforcing the law are expected respond by using restorative justice mechanism. Therefore, this paper focus on why restorative justice mechanism could be an alternative on law enforcement by the police; and how the mechanisms of restorative justice by the police in the national legal system. By using normative juridical methode, it can be conclude that by making restorative justice as an approach of, there are several advantages which can be found. First, public givenits own space to handles with his legal issues which preceived fairly. Second, burden on th estate in some way be reduced. The police could be implementing restorative justice mechanism through discretionbecause it is the completeness of regulation by the law itself. Implementation of restorative justice by the police in perspective of national legal system is acceptable if carried out based on the state ohilosophy of Pancasila, ensures of justice and legal protection of human rights.To ensure uniformity in implementation, needs a norm or rule to gave legitimacy that all actions which taken in implementation of restorative justice ha snot considered illegal.</p>

Foundations, as permanent funds established by a certain legal act, can serve manifold purposes, but often pursue charitable goals. As such, they play an important role for the public good. Therefore, states always had an interest in fostering foundations by providing a pertinent legal framework. In Austria, this topic has not yet been the focus of scholarship. Through this study some light is shed on the implementation of the law on foundations in the Habsburg Monarchy. It focuses on the role of the state and its legal system regarding the regulation and supervision of foundations from 1750 to 1918. This period is characterized by the sovereigns’ endeavor to regulate the position of foundations via extensive legislation. In particular, a system of oversight for foundations was created in order to guarantee the attainment of their charitable goals. In fact, this system prevailed until the end of the 20thcentury.

The measure of success of law enforcement by law enforcement officers should be characterized by the achievement of values of justice in the community. The police as a state tool that plays a role in enforcing the law is expected to be able to respond to this by implementing a Restorative Justice mechanism.<strong></strong></span></h1>

The subject. The article is devoted to the study of the trinity of properties of constitutional principles.The purpose of the article is to confirm the hypothesis that constitutional principles, often perceived by researchers and law enforcement officials as abstract norms with declarative content, are in fact full-fledged legal institutions that are endowed with all the necessary properties to achieve constitutional goals. In this regard, the article analyzes the property of axiomaticity, the property of presumptivity and the property of fictitiousness of constitutional principles.The methodology. The systemic-structural, comparative, formal-legal and formal-logical methods made it possible to identify and characterize the properties of constitutional principles, such as axiomaticity, presumptivity and fictitiousness. The use of these methods in their combination predetermined the appeal not only to topical problems of constitutional law, but also to issues of the theory of law, as well as other branches of law, which made it possible to most objectively and comprehensively approach the study of the properties of constitutional principles.The main results of the research. The trinity of the properties of the constitutional principle lies in the fact that the constitutional principle formulates the basic rule and determines the direction of development of the legal system and thereby has the property of axiomaticity. At the same time, the constitutional principle has the property of presumptivity due to the duty of the law enforcement officer to proceed from the assumption of compliance with the provisions of such a principle by all subjects of legal relations. Thereby constitutional principle ensures the necessary stability of the legal system of the state. At the same time, in order to achieve full-fledged stability of the legal system, along with the assumption that the subjects of legal relations comply with the provisions of the constitutional principles, it should be possible to monitor such compliance. In the absence of prior control over compliance with the provisions of the law, the solution is the application of legal presumptions. In this regard, within the framework of the presumptive property of constitutional principles, constitutional presumptions are inextricably linked with the corresponding constitutional principles. In turn, having the property of fictitiousness, the constitutional principle allows to interpret the provisions that make up such a constitutional principle and, as a result, create the necessary regulatory legal framework.Conclusions. Constitutional principles are the driving force of the legal system. They fill all legal relations without exception with legal meaning and content and have a special meaning due to their irreplaceability and the obligation to strictly observe them. In turn, the trinity of properties of the constitutional principles reflects their legal essence as fundamental normative provisions that determine the generally binding basic rules and directions of the development of the legal system, ensure the stability of the legal system of the state, and also have the possibility of timely development and adaptation to the changing legal reality.

<p><em>The </em><em>Failure to enforce law and justice will be one of the factors of social dis-integration. If it is responded well and systematically it will be a threat to a country's failure. These initial symptoms can be seen from the emergence of various vigilante acts. The empty spaces filled with violence are caused by the vacuum of law. The law fails to do its job to solve social problems that arise. The explanation in this paper seeks to analyze the root problem of the failure of law enforcement in Indonesia seen in the perspective of the legal system by Friedman. To analyze the solution, the perspective used is an analysis of the style of progressive law as stated by Satjipto Rahardjo. The use of these two perspectives is expected to be able to describe well the real fundamental problem in our current law enforcement</em></p>

Article 33 of the UNCAC legally obliges the State Parties to provide protection to whistleblowers. The existence of whistleblower is pivotal to uncover the hidden practices of corruption. Anti-corruption strategy encourages whistleblowers to unveil corrupt practices to the law enforcement agencies and public. Due to this task, therefore, whistleblowers must be protected from any kind of retaliation. Indonesia has the Law number 13 of 2006 juncto the Law number 31 of 2014 concerning witness and victim protection which regulates the protection of whistleblower in the Indonesian criminal legal system. This paper analyzes existence of legal protection for whistleblowers in the respective provisions which contained within the Law number 13 of 2006 and the Law number 31 of 2014, specifically on anti-retaliation protection by analyzing the synchronization of the law with Article 33 of the UNCAC. The provisions of national law vis-à-vis with the provisions of UNCAC concerning whistleblower protection, the national law has not provided best protection to whistleblower yet due to the possibility of retaliation be made against the whistleblowers that is not regulated by the national law.Keywords: Indonesia, corruption, whistleblower, United Nations Convention Against Corruption.IntisariIndonesia meratifikasi United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) melalui Undang-undang Nomor 7 Tahun 2006. Pasal 33 UNCAC memberikan kewajiban hukum bagi Negara Pihak untuk menyediakan perlindungan terhadap para whistleblowers. Eksistensi whistleblower merupakan hal yang sangat penting untuk membuka praktek tersembunyi korupsi. Strategi anti-korupsi memberikan dorongan bagi para whistleblower untuk membuka praktek-praktek korupsi kepada penegak hukum dan masyarakat.
