A healthy environment is a basic human need and a right for everyone. Muhammadiyah has a commitment to the environment, clean living and healthy education through the process of character education, but the results are not optimal. One of the solutions offered is the Muhammadiyah Green School (MGS) program. This service program is carried out to improve the insight and skills of SMP Muhammadiyah Turi in running MGS and preparing policies for implementing MGS. Community service was carried out using a community development and participatory approach, with several methods, namely community education, training, diffusion of science and technology and consultation. The MGS program at SMP Muhammadiyah Turi has been implemented through a green curriculum, green community, and green school, and green culture. Green curriculum was carried out through the integration of good values ​​and care for the environment in subjects, local content about the environment, as well as HW scouting extracurriculars. The green community was developed by forming MGS cadres, student guardian associations to take part in the MGS program, as well as forming student picket teams. Green school is carried out by managing school resources with “tabulampot” of rare plants, verticulture, painting school facilities, and so on. Green culture with the “kurasaki” program, enforcement of school rules, “clean operations”, and the installation of banners for environmental campaigns. With mentoring by teachers and guidance by the task force team, MGS at SMP Muhammadiyah Turi can create a more conducive environment for academic and social interactions, become a medium for character education, and provide fulfillment of the right to a clean and healthy environment.

SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Turi launched the Adiwiyata school program, which is promoting knowledge and awareness about environmental conservation efforts among the student, and one way to make this happen is through the Muhammadiyah Green School (MGS). MGS is a concept that invites all stakeholders to form a lifestyle so that they care more about their environment. The problem is that the insights and skills of most of the stakeholders of SMKM 2 Turi on MGS are still limited. This community service program aims to increase knowledge and skills, and increase student and teacher awareness of the environment. This community service will be carried out in 2021 using a community development and participatory approach. The MGS program at SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Turi was conducted with several activities, i.e. coordination, focus group discussions, workshops, implementation, as well as mentoring and monitoring.

This article investigates the judicial approach the courts are likely to take when they are asked to decide whether hydraulic fracturing, otherwise known as “fracking”, is an acceptable technique or not. The main focus of this article is to investigate whether the legislation put in place is consistent with the constitutional provisions aimed at protecting, on the one hand, the right to a healthy environment, health and life, and on the other hand, the right to promoting justifiable economic and social development. What will be considered is where these rights are likely to come into conflict with each other and how the courts are likely to deal with the issue. Prefacing this discussion is a brief investigation into the nature of fracking; the legislation that will govern the process and the constitutional rights likely to be effected by the technique.

A big nation is a nation that wants to respect its culture. Indonesia has a diversity of cultures that are characteristic and assets of the Indonesian nation. But most of the younger generation has forgotten a lot of the culture of the nation. The tendency of the younger generation now prefers outside cultures and many younger generations are less able to sort out most of which have negative impacts rather than a positive impact on themselves and others as well as the environment. There is a need for character education so that the younger generation can be relied upon in the future according to the nation's culture, such as being responsible for mutual cooperation, mutual assistance and good manners. Reog Kendhang's art proves that local culture can increase the sense of community nationalism and be able to become social controls so as not to fall into bad lifestyle. The formation of a national culture that can truly reunite all components of the nation's culture, therefore it is necessary to have a deeper introduction to history and cultural heritage in search of the identity of a pluralistic Indonesian society.

Muslim Involvement: The Court Record 1.Prisoners' RightsCan we rely upon the courts to protect Islam and Muslims from discriminatory treatment? Have the courts considered Islam to be a 'religion' worthy of constitutional protection? The issue of First Amendment protection of Muslim beliefs and practices has arisen most often in cases brought by African-American Muslims who are incarcerated. In fact, the area of law to which Muslims have made their most substantial contribution to date is the area of prisoners' rights litigation. African-American Muslim inmates have been responsible for establishing prisoners' constitutional rights to worship. Cases brought by Muslims have established that prisoners have the right to assemble for religious services; to consult a cleric of their faith; to possess religious publications and to subscribe to religious literature; to wear unobstrusive religious symbols such as medallions; to have prepared a special diet required by their religion; and to correspond with their spiritual leaders. The court record demonstrates that Muslim inmates' religious liberty claims, challenging prison regulations that impinge on the free exercise of the Islamic faith, have been accepted only under certain circumstances. In brief, the responsiveness of the courts to Muslim inmates' claims has turned on a number of factors including: (1) the issue of equality of treatment of all religious groups in prison; (2) the courts' reticence to reverse the decisions of prison officials; (3) the degree to which the inmates' challenges would undermine the fundamental interests of the state (e.g. in prison security and administrative efficiency); and (4) the showing that Islam is parallel in significant ways to the conventional Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish faiths.Constitutional protection of Islamic practices in prison and elsewhere, however, has not been automatic. Many Muslim organizations, the Nation of Islam in particular, have been treated as cults, or suspect and dangerous groups, due in part to the perception that Muslims teach racial hatred, and have not been regarded in the same respect as 'mainline' religious groups. It has been argued before the courts that Muslim doctrine contains political aspirations and economic goals as well as racial prejudice and should be suppressed in the interest of society. The gist of this argument is that certain Muslim groups are primarily political and not religious associations and thus ...

This book examines the relational dynamics between the U.S. Constitution’s Free Speech Clause and other constitutional rights. The free speech guarantee has intersected with a variety of other constitutional rights. Those intersections have significantly influenced the recognition, scope, and meaning of rights ranging from freedom of the press to the Second Amendment right to bear arms. They have also influenced interpretation of the Free Speech Clause itself. Free speech principles and doctrines have facilitated the recognition and effective exercise of constitutional rights, including equal protection, the right to abortion, and the free exercise of religion. They have also provided mediating principles for constructive debates about constitutional rights. At the same time, in its interactions with other constitutional rights, the Free Speech Clause has also been a complicating force. It has dominated rights discourse and subordinated or supplanted free press, assembly, petition, and free exercise rights. Currently, courts and commentators are fashioning the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms in the image of the Free Speech Clause. Borrowing the Free Speech Clause for this purpose may turn out to be detrimental for both rights. The book examines the common and distinctive dynamics that have brought free speech and other constitutional rights together. It assesses the products and consequences of these intersections, and draws important lessons from them about constitutional rights and constitutional liberty. Ultimately, the book defends a pluralistic conception of constitutional rights that seeks to leverage the power of the Free Speech Clause but also to tame its propensity to subordinate, supplant, and eclipse other constitutional rights.

A long-standing, and deeply controversial, question in constitutional law is whether or not the Constitution's protections for “persons” and “people” extend to corporations. Law professor Adam Winkler's We the Corporations chronicles the most important legal battles launched by corporations to “win their constitutional rights,” by which he means both civil rights against discriminatory state action and civil liberties enshrined in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution (p. xvii). Today, we think of the former as the right to be free from unequal treatment, often protected by statutory laws, and the latter as liberties that affect the ability to live one's life fully, such as the freedom of religion, speech, or association. The vim in Winkler's argument is that the court blurred this distinction when it applied liberty rights to nonprofit corporations and then, through a series of twentieth-century rulings, corporations were able to advance greater claims to liberty rights. Ultimately, those liberty rights have been employed to strike down significant bipartisan regulations, such as campaign finance laws, which were intended to advance democratic participation in the political process. At its core, this book asks, to what extent do “we the people” rule corporations and to what extent do they rule us?

Climate litigation in the Global South tends to be couched in rights-based clams including the right to life and a clean and healthy environment. Jolene Lin explained that this is in part due to the fact that many jurisdictions in the Global South have embedded environmental rights in their constitutions and, in some cases, courts have interpreted the right to life to include the right to a clean and healthy environment.
