The debate about the pros and cons of supporting, protecting, and recognizing LGBT rights has existed since the early 19th century. In 2011, the United Nations declared a human rights resolution dedicated to sexual orientation and gender identity. The United Nations statement reaps many pros and cons from the countries that are members of it. Indonesia is one of those who disagree with this. In everyday life, LGBT people in Indonesia often face discrimination, harassment, and sexual violence even though law in Indonesia does not criminalize LGBT. The lives of LGBT who hold prisoner status are made more difficult because they often face discrimination, harassment, and sexual violence, both from other inmates and prison officials, but there is no positive law that supports the protection of LGBT. Therefore, this study aims to understand the form of legal protection for LGBT prisoners. The research method used is normative juridical research with a conceptual approach. The characteristic of human rights is universal and automatically attached to an individual because the individual is a human being. Human rights create an obligation for other individuals not to violate the rights of others and the obligation of the government to protect these rights. Indonesia is a rule of law. Through the concept of human rights and the rule of law, LGBT prisoners actually still have to be given legal protection against acts of discrimination committed by heterosexual prisoners and the need for law enforcement for acts of sexual violence. The government can actually apply several United Nations principles in the “Born Free and Equal” campaign to provide legal protection for LGBT prisoners who experienced discrimination, harassment, and sexual violence.NaskahPerdebatan mengenai pro dan kontra dalam mendukung, melindungi, dan mengakui hak LGBT sudah ada sejak awal ke-19. Pada 2011, PBB menyatakan resolusi hak asasi manusia yang didedikasikan untuk orientasi seksual dan identitas gender. Pernyataan PBB menuai banyak pro dan kontra dari negara-negara yang tergabung di dalamnya. Indonesia adalah salah satu yang tidak sependapat dengan hal tersebut. Dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, kaum LGBT di Indonesia kerap mendapat diskriminasi, pelecehan, dan kekerasan seksual meski hukum di Indonesia tidak mengkriminalisasi LGBT. Kehidupan kaum LGBT yang menyandang status narapidana menjadi lebih berat karena sering mendapatkan diskriminasi, pelecehan, dan kekerasan seksual, baik dari narapidana lain maupun petugas lembaga pemasyarakatan, tetapi tidak ada hukum positif yang mendukung perlindungan kaum LGBT. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini ditujukan untuk memahami bentuk perlindungan hukum bagi narapidana kaum LGBT. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan konseptual. Hak asasi manusia adalah hak yang bersifat universal dan melekat secara otomatis kepada seseorang individu karena individu tersebut adalah manusia. Hak asasi manusia menimbulkan kewajiban bagi individu lain untuk tidak melanggar hak orang lain dan kewajiban pemerintah serta negara untuk melindungi hak-hak tersebut. Indonesia merupakan negara hukum. Melalui konsep hak asasi manusia dan negara hukum, maka narapidana kaum LGBT sebenarnya tetap harus diberi perlindungan hukum terhadap tindakan diskriminasi yang dilakukan oleh narapidana heteroseksual dan perlunya penegakan hukum atas tindak kekerasan seksual. Pemerintah sebenarnya dapat menerapkan beberapa prinsip PBB dalam kampanye “Born Free and Equal” untuk melakukan perlindungan hukum bagi narapidana kaum LGBT yang mengalami diskriminasi, pelecehan, dan kekerasan seksual.

This article focuses on the relationship between international human rights standards and refugee protection. The foundational status of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other human rights treaties are surveyed in light of India's international legal obligations. The authors argue that international human rights law and practice have had a significant impact on the protection activities of the Ofice of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) both in countries of asylum, countries of origin and in relation to the United Nations and other human rights actors. In this context, courts and national human rights institutions are important players in safeguarding the rights of refugees. As none of the countries of South Asia is party to the international refugee instruments nor have any of them adopted a national refugee law or procedure, the activities of the Indian National Human Rights Commission stand out as a positive example of national institution expanding the legal protection of refugees in the region.

SummaryThe author considers the application of relevant human rights provisions to the Balkans both historically and in terms of contemporary issues. In particular, he discusses the legality of the measures taken under the auspices of NATO in respect of Kosovo and queries whether such measures are able to remedy such a breakdown of civil administration and respect for human rights. In the author's view, in such circumstances, administration of a country by the United Nations itself provides the only viable alternative.

Nowadays, there are more and more crimes of child sexual abuse in Indonesia. Children should be protected by the government in order to become the nation's next generation. In 2019, the Mojokerto District Court sentenced the defendant Aris (20) who was convicted of a crime of sexual abuse against a child and this verdict was the first verdict in Indonesia to impose chemical castration on perpetrators of crimes of sexual abuse against children. This writing uses the juridical-normative method which looks at empirical data as a reference for writing this journal. For some parties, chemical castration punishment is considered effective in punishing perpetrators of crimes of child sexual abuse so that it becomes a frightening thing for other perpetrators of sexual abuse crimes. This is included in the category of the theory of the purpose of punishment in order to create order and order in society. Perppu Number 1 of 2016 is the legal basis for the application of chemical castration punishment. However, there are many pros and cons to castration. One of the things that has created contra is contrary to the ratification of human rights. Considering that Indonesia is a state based on the rule of law, which is obliged to protect human rights guarantees as stated in Article 28 I of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.

Children are still victims of sexual violence by perpetrators who are stronger than victims. Children who are victims of sexual violence have a negative impact on the psychic and mental, so that children will have trauma that is difficult to be eliminated or even prolonged trauma. So that the government established the Law Number 17 of 2016 concerning the Establishment of the Government Regulation in Lieu of Law Number 1 of 2016 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection into Law. In the laws and regulations, it has been regulated regarding the castration penalty of chemistry. Indonesia is a country that still upholds all human rights possessed by every community in Indonesia without discrimination. This chemical castration execution raises the pros and cons in people's lives. So this chemical castration is considered to have violated the Human Rights of perpetrators of sexual violence against children. This research wants to dig deeper about the use of chemical castration punishment in perpetrators of recurrent crimes in the human rights perspective. This study uses normative research methods with conceptual and legislative approaches. Chemical castration has not been one of the effective penalties and provides a deterrent for perpetrators of sexual violence, so the laws governing chemical castration punishment need to be reviewed.Anak masih menjadi korban kekerasan seksual yang dilakukan oleh para pelaku yang lebih kuat dari korban. Anak yang menjadi korban kekerasan seksual mendapatkan dampak yang negatif terhadap psikis dan batinnya, sehingga anak akan memiliki trauma yang susah untuk dihilangkan atau bahkan trauma tersebut berkepanjangan. Sehingga pemerintah membentuk peraturan Undang-Undang Nomor 17 tahun 2016 tentang Penetapan Peraturan Pemerintah Pengganti Undang-Undang Nomor 1 tahun 2016 tentang Perubahan Kedua atas Undang-undang Nomor 23 tahun 2002 tentang Perlindungan Anak menjadi Undang-Undang. Didalam peraturan perundang-undangan tersebut, telah diatur tentang hukuman kebiri kimia. Indonesia adalah negara yang masih menjunjung setiap Hak Asasi Manusia yang dimiliki oleh setiap masyarakat di Indonesia tanpa adanya diskriminasi. Eksekusi kebiri kimia ini menimbulkan pro dan kontra didalam kehidupan masyarakat. Sehingga kebiri kimia ini dianggap telah melanggar Hak Asasi Manusia dari pelaku kekerasan seksual terhadap anak. Penelitian ini ingin menggali lebih dalam tentang penggunaan hukuman kebiri kimia pada pelaku kejahatan berulang dalam persektif hak asasi manusia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian normative dengan endekatan konseptual dan perundang-undangan. Kebiri kimia belum menjadi salah satu hukuman yang efektif dan membuat jera untuk pelaku kekerasan seksual, Sehingga undang-undang yang mengatur tentang hukuman kebiri kimia perlu dikaji ulang.

President Joko Widodo announced a public health emergency at the end of March 2020. This policy demonstrates denial, too late and limited in responding to the spread of Covid-19. On the other hand, the state security approach during the pandemic has pressured civil liberties, especially criticisms against government policies. This phenomenon is not a new development in Indonesia whereby attacks on freedom of expression and academic freedom are common. This article analyses how the COVID-19 health emergency situation is handled by the government from the perspective of human rights law standards and the rule of law. This article argues the Indonesian COVID-19 emergency law violates many guarantees of legal protection under the rule of law standard. It is apparent how the issue of human rights has not yet become an effective strategy or approach in this non-natural disaster emergency situation.
