<p>Dalam mewujudkan prinsip-prinsip negara hukum, advokat diwajibkan memberikan bantuan hukum bagi orang atau kelompok miskin, namun pada kenyataanya kewajiban advokat dalam memberikan bantuan hukum cuma-cuma terdapat banyak kendala dalam prakteknya, oleh karena itu diperlukan campur tangan negara. Permasalahannya adalah bagaimana konsepsi bantuan hukum yang selama ini terjadi dan bagaimana sinergisitas arah bantuan hukum yang berpihak pada masyarakat miskin dan bagaimana sinergisitas peran negara dan advokat dalam pemberian bantuan hukum cuma-cuma bagi orang atau kelompok miskin. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif dapat disimpulkan bahwa konsepsi bantuan hukum yang terjadi selama ini yang bersifat individual dan konvensional dengan pengaturan yang bersifat parsial dan tidak tersistem sehingga membawa pada suatu kondisi belum terwujudnya suatu perubahan sosial yang berkeadilan dan kesadaran hukum masyarakat serta mudahnya akses untuk mendapatkan keadilan tersebut. Peran negara hadir dalam membentuk regulasi dalam bentuk UU Bantuan Hukum 2011, yang memberikan suatu konsep baru bantuan hukum. Keberadaan UU Bantuan Hukum semakin menguatkan peran advokat dalam memberikan bantuan cuma- cuma, sehingga peran dan kewajiban advokat yang diatur dalam UU Advokat 2003 dapat bersinergi dengan peran negara dalam menyelenggarakan bantuan hukum sebagaimana diatur dalam UU Bantuan Hukum 2011.</p><p>In realizing the principles of the rule of law, advocates were oblige to provide legal assistance to people or the poor, however the liability of advocates in giving free legal aid encounter many obstacles in practices, therefore, the intervention of state were required. The problem is the conception of legal aid that occurs and how is the synergy between advocates and states in giving a free legal aid and pro-poor legal aid. By using the normative research method, it can be concluded that legal aid conception occurred during thistime is individualized and conventional with partial and unsystemized se ƫ ng lead to a condition of unestablished just social change and public awareness as well as easy access to justice. The Role of states presents by establishing the regulation in form of Legal Aid Act 2011, which provides a new concept of legal aid. The existence of Legal Aid Act strengthens the role of advocates in providing free assistance, so that the roles and responsibili ties set out in the Advocate Act 2003 can be synergized with the role of the state in legal aid as set out in the Legal Aid Act 2011.</p>

AbstractKornai's earlier works embodied the idea that state institutions formed a system with a strong tendency to reproduce itself, and hence to resist minor reforms. Thus, at the end of socialism, huge changes were needed in politics, economics, and the law to build a new system oriented towards the market-type economy, which would again be stable, self-reinforcing and self-sustaining. Transition promoted the development of new states in Eastern Europe that conformed to the Copenhagen criteria for the EU accession. Were we too hasty in thinking that we had succeeded? The new systems are not returning to the previous one, and only in a few areas have the basic norms of a market-type economy been set aside in Hungary or Poland. But concerns arise at the interface between politics, law and economics – to do with the rule of law, the nature and role of the state, and the interactions between parliament, the executive and the judiciary. Unavoidably, there is also an interesting international dimension here, represented by the shift from the Warsaw Pact and CMEA to NATO and the EU. This paper explores these issues in the light of some of Kornai's recent analysis of developments in Hungary, while also drawing on his very insightful earlier works.

Legal Aid is organized to help resolve legal issues faced by Legal Aid Recipients. The birth of Law No. 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid provides new hope for the poor to gain access to justice and equality before the law. This writing aims to determine the implementation of the provision of legal aid and the obstacles that influence it in its implementation because sometimes the implementation of Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid in Indonesian Courts is not optimal. This research focuses on the application of legal aid to the poor, the challenges and problems they face. The method used in this research is empirical research. This study found that in the application of legal aid in several regions in Indonesia, the main problem faced in addition to the lack of availability of accredited legal aid institutions, was also the issue of the budget provided by the state. In addition, in terms of the legal culture of the community, the implementation of legal aid is not optimal due to the understanding of the community not to have anything to do with the law so that many cases that should receive legal assistance cannot be accompanied.

The implementation of legal aid is a manifestation of Indonesia as a legal state that guarantees the human rights of citizens to equality before the law which is guaranteed in the 1945 Constitution. Within the framework of implementing this citizen's human rights, the provision of free legal aid is, among other things, obligated to advocates based on Article 22 Law on advocates and their implementing regulations. From this, two problem formulations were made as follows: What is the juridical review of the provision of pro bono legal aid? And what is the role of advocates in providing pro bono legal aid? This research is based on normative legal research, which is a research conducted by reviewing and analyzing legal materials and legal issues related to the problems studied. The results of the author's discussion found that free legal aid is the right of the poor to obtain the same justice as other communities, so that the protection of their rights is well fulfilled and the principle of equality before the law. Advocates are obliged to provide free legal aid to justice seekers, and to obtain free legal assistance, justice seekers must submit a written application to an advocate organization or legal aid institution.

Providing legal assistance to the poor continues by the government to realize legal access and justice for all levels of society. Several regulations regarding legal aid have been issued by the state through the law and implementing regulations, but the fact is that the provision of legal aid is not yet effective. This causes a lack of access to law and justice for the poor. The effectiveness of providing legal aid by the government needs to be assessed to see how effective the legal aid program provided by the government is to realize legal access and justice for the poor. Therefore, criticism and advice should be given to the government in order to optimize legal assistance in order to achieve legal access and justice for all levels of society.

This paper is motivated by the role of the university legal clinic under the spirit of implementing the third of university role in the field of community service. In practice, legal aid services at universities are not different from general aid agencies in general. One of the uniqueness of the university legal clinic program is the direct involvement of student paralegal in helping the clients to get legal aid services within the university and court. The student paralegal encounters various opportunities and challenges. The main opportunities, they have their passion and strong motivation to become justice fighters for justice seekers, while they have also the main challenges such as limited time, facilities, knowledge, and legal skills. However, the existence of student paralegal has proven to be very helpful for the clients not only in processing applications and registering cases in court but also in assisting clients in the form of consultation and legal assistance during non-litigation and litigation. Therefore, the university legal clinic program needs to be further strengthened and developed at PTKIN because it has proven positive implications for helping underprivileged people and justice seekers to get access to justice.

The rise of news in the mass media related to burglary cases of bank customer funds further raises public awareness of the vulnerability of the banking sector used as a means (crimes through the bank) and as the target of crime against the bank. On the other hand, the awareness is intended to further convince each party that the bank in conducting its business activities must be managed and managed by parties who have integrity and good competence. The purpose of this research is to: (1) analyze and describe the implementation of the rule of law in handling banking criminal case involving insider; and (2) to know and analyze government efforts both preventive and repressive in handling banking crime cases in Indonesia, especially in cases involving insiders. The results showed that the implementation of law in handling banking crime cases in addition to using Law No. 10 of 1998 on Amendment to Law No. 7 of 1992 concerning to Banking (Banking Act), also used several provisions of article in the Criminal Code (KUHP) and Law No. 20 Year 2011 jo. Law No. 31 Year 1999 on the Eradication of Corruption. The role of Bank Indonesia in the enforcement of law in the form of investigation and/or forensic examination of banking crime that occurred in a bank which then the result of investigation is reported to law enforcement in accordance with applicable Criminal Procedure Code. Enforcement and prevention efforts are conducted jointly through the synergy of Bank Indonesia, the Police and the Attorney. In addition, Bank Indonesia also applied the principle of know your customer and compliance function as a preventive effort for banking crime. The weakness of internal controls is the cause of the ineffectiveness of handling of banking crime cases, especially those involving insiders, a memorandum of understanding between Bank Indonesia, the Police and the Attorney Office is only a moral obligation, should be more binding so that it can become one of the more powerful law enforcement tools.

Finality of judgments is a concept that puts an end to the trial, prohibiting subsequent appeals, opening of new proceedings and disputing clearly established facts. Despite being promoted by the Council of Europe and its Court of Human Rights and familiar to most if not all states, its application still encounters misunderstanding in some Eastern European Countries. Deeply rooted ideas of substantive truth and public role of the judiciary, a rather idiosyncratic notion of fair trial and the rule of law all lead to underestimation of the role played by finality in a peaceful life of the society. This article addresses the experience of Ukraine (where a major judicial reform has just taken place) and Lithuania – two post-Soviet nations that both, still in their unique way, worked on implementing the principle of finality into their procedural order. The paper also explores an uneasy balance to be found between this notion and other relevant considerations (access to justice, rule of law, judicial economy and some other).
