THE ATTITUDINAL MEANING BUILT BY KONDE.CO REGARDING THE RATIFICATION OF CHEMICAL CASTRATION PENALTY

The rise of sexual violence against women and children encourages the government to establish Government Regulation (Peraturan Pemerintah) hereafter (PP) number 70 of 2020, which contains the application of the chemical castration penalty for the offenders of sexual violence. This regulation causes pros and cons from the various parties, including women and children's observer community, selected in this case Konde.co. This study aims to discuss the attitude or position built by Konde.co toward the Government Regulation (PP) ratification concerning the chemical castration penalty for the sexual violence offenders. This research uses a qualitative approach, especially discourse analysis. The discourse analysis in this research uses the appraisal theory, which studies the attitudesystem explicitly The result of this research shows that the attitude that appears in the text is generally negative. Furthermore, the attitude aspect with the highest frequency is negative judgement.The negative attitude refers to the incompatibility and inability of the chemical castration penalty in overcoming the sexual violence problem in Indonesia. The chemical castration penalty has negative impacts, such as exacerbating sexual violence in Indonesia in the future, disturbing, like an inclement regulation, and violating human rights. The positive attitude refers to the PP’s capacity for the chemical castration penalty of the sexual violence offenders in upholding the rights of the underprivileged. Other priorities that Konde.co considers more critical in overcoming the sexual violence problem are the recovery of the victims and the immediate ratification of the Bill on the Elimination of Sexual Violence.

MENINJAU ULANG SANKSI KEBIRI KIMIA DARI PERSPEKTIF PEMBAHARUAN HUKUM PIDANA BERDASARKAN PANCASILA

Starting from the state's concern about the increasing numbers of sexual violence against children, the government has issued a chemical castration policy for perpetrators of sexual violence against children as an additional punishment or treatment. In general, children are a group vulnerable to sexual violence. This is because children are deemed unable to defend themselves and inadequate sex education in Indonesia. Through this research, the researchers tried to see whether the implementation of the castration policy can be the right form of punishment. By using the normative juridical method through an approach to legal principles with qualitative data analysis presented in a descriptive-analytical manner, the researchers found that the chemical castration policy against perpetrators of sexual violence against children actually injures the concept of criminal law reform which is currently on the country's big agenda to create criminal law in accordance with the values ​​of Pancasila, namely peace. The chemical castration policy is also a form of state neglect of the rights of victims and the rights of perpetrators which should be accommodated properly, without having to use chemical castration as a solution.

Learning from the “tail end” of de-implementation: the case of chemical castration for localized prostate cancer

Background Men with prostate cancer are often treated with the suppression of testosterone through long-acting injectable drugs termed chemical castration or androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). In most cases, ADT is not an appropriate treatment for localized prostate cancer, indicating low-value care. Guided by the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) and the Behavior Change Wheel’s Capability, Opportunity, Motivation Model (COM-B), we conducted a qualitative study to identify behavioral determinants of low-value ADT use to manage localized prostate cancer, and theory-based opportunities for de-implementation strategy development. Methods We used national cancer registry and administrative data from 2016 to 2017 to examine the variation in low-value ADT use across Veterans Health Administration facilities. Using purposive sampling, we selected high- and low-performing sites to conduct 20 urology provider interviews regarding low-value ADT. We coded transcripts into TDF domains and mapped content to the COM-B model to generate a conceptual framework for addressing low-value ADT practices. Results Our interview findings reflected provider perspectives on prescribing ADT as low-value localized prostate cancer treatment, including barriers and facilitators to de-implementing low-value ADT. We characterized providers as belonging in 1 of 3 categories with respect to low-value ADT use: 1) never prescribe 2); willing, under some circumstances, to prescribe: and 3) prescribe as an acceptable treatment option. Provider capability to prescribe low-value ADT depended on their knowledge of localized prostate cancer treatment options (knowledge) coupled with interpersonal skills to engage patients in educational discussion (skills). Provider opportunity to prescribe low-value ADT centered on the environmental resources to inform ADT decisions (e.g., multi-disciplinary review), perceived guideline availability, and social roles and influences regarding ADT practices, such as prior training. Provider motivation involved goals of ADT use, including patient preferences, beliefs in capabilities/professional confidence, and beliefs about the consequences of prescribing or not prescribing ADT. Conclusions Use of the TDF domains and the COM-B model enabled us to conceptualize provider behavior with respect to low-value ADT use and clarify possible areas for intervention to effect de-implementation of low-value ADT prescribing in localized prostate cancer.

Kebiri Kimia sebagai Sanksi Tindakan dalam Double Track System

The punishment policy in the form of chemical castration for perpetrators of sexual crimes is a confusing policy when viewed from the perspective of a double-track system. The application of castration sanctions is contrary to the purpose of action sanctions in the double-track system because it does not aim to restore the perpetrators, but rather to provide a deterrent effect and retaliation. So that the chemical castration policy is wrong because it is not in accordance with following the principle of action sanctions in the double-track system. The research method used is normative juridical using primary and secondary data and then analyzed qualitatively. This study aims to find out about the double-track system and to determine the action of chemical castration in the perspective of the double-track system. The results of this study show, First in the double-track system, the criminal system is known in two ways, namely, through legal sanctions and witnesses of action, legal sanctions are oriented towards revenge for their behavior while action sanctions are oriented towards improving the perpetrators so that they can be accepted back in the community. The two sanctions for castration are not included as witnesses for acts in the double-track system, because the basic idea is to improve the perpetrators, while chemical castration is more directed at retaliation. This research can be a reference for criminal law policymakers so that the legal policy does not get out of the basic idea of criminal law itself. Kebijakan pemidanaan berupa sanksi tindakan kebiri kimia bagi palaku kejahatan seksual menjadi kebijakan yang membingungkan jika dilihat dalam perpektif double track system. Penerapan sanksi tindakan kebiri kimia bertolak belakang dengan tujuan dari sanksi tindakan dalam sistem double track system dikarenakan tidak bertujuan memulihkan pelaku, namun lebih kepada pemberian efek jera dan pembalasan. Sehingga kebijakan kebiri kimia menjadi kebijakan yang keliru karena tidak sesuai dengan prinsip sanksi tindakan dalam sistem double track system. Penelitian ini menggunakan yuridis normatif dengan menggunakan data primer dan sekunder kemudian dianalisis secara kualitatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tentang double track system dan untuk mengetahui tindakan kebiri kimia dalam per­spektif double track system. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan, Pertama dalam sistem double track system, sistem pemidanaan dikenal dengan dua jalan yakni melalui sanksi hukum dan saksi tindakan, sanksi hukum berorientasi pada upaya balas dendam terhadap prilakunya sedangkan sanksi tindakan berorientasi pada perbaikan pelaku agar bisa diterima kembali di masyarakat. Kedua saknsi tindakan kebiri tidak terma­suk saksi tindakan dalam double track system, sebab ide dasarnya perbaikan terhadap pelaku sedangkan kebiri kimia lebih mengarah kepada pembalasan. Penelitian ini dapat menjadi referensi pembuat kebijakan hukum pidana agar kebijakan hukum tersebut tidak keluar dari ide dasarnya hukum pidana itu sendiri.

TRACING THE CRIMINAL POLICY ON CASTRATION AND COMMUNITY RESPONSE

<p>The act of chemical castration is now one of the sanctions in Indonesia's positive law. However, it is still limited to child protection based on Law Number 17 of 2016, which can be imposed on perpetrators of sexual crimes against children if the victim is more than one person, is seriously injured, has mental disorders, suffers from infectious diseases, reproductive system disorders, and lose their life. This paper analyzes criminal policy and people's reactions to castration concerning the objectives of punishment. This research is doctrinal research as prescriptive research using a legal approach regarding legal categories regarding castration, the relationship between rules, difficulties that arise and predicting future developments on criminal policy regarding castration in positive law as one of the new sanctions in the criminal system. The results of the study is that the birth of chemical castration in criminal policy reform is based on a balance between the interests of child victims of sexual crimes and perpetrators of crime, but its existence in positive law does not necessarily make the whole community accept even though the pros and cons of castration are still balanced based on the purpose of punishment based on Pancasila. The recommendations put forward are the need for socialization of castration for all levels of society in a balance between the interests of child victims of sexual crimes and the interests of criminals, increasing non-penal efforts and the application of selective castration sanctions, and providing assistance for child victims of sexual crimes.</p>

"IMMUNOCOMPETENT LIVER CELLS IN THE PATHOGENESIS OF FIBROSIS DURING CHEMICAL CASTRATION OF MALE RATS"

Hepatocytes make up only about 2/3 of the total liver cell population. The population of nonparenchymal antigen-presenting cells includes Kupffer cells that are part of the reticuloendothelial system, sinusoidal endothelial cells of the liver and dendritic cells. All three types of antigen-presenting cells are thought to be crucial for maintaining tolerance in non-inflammatory conditions. Macrophages play a key role in creating the body's line of defense. The implementation of this function is carried out due to the direct mechanism of action and also due to indirect - processing and presentation of antigenic determinants to T-lymphocytes. How specific populations of macrophages contribute to the development of diseases and regeneration of the liver is the subject of constant debate. Characterization of human macrophage populations provides a valuable basis for studying their role in liver pathology. Each subtype of tissue macrophage has its own unique gene expression profile, which allows it to function in synergy with the tissue in which it is located. As a result of activation of Kupffer and Ito cells, mainly due to their production of collagen, the process of liver fibrogenesis is initiated. Liver disease models in mice that block androgen receptors have shown that androgen / androgen receptor signaling inhibits the development of steatosis, viral hepatitis, and cirrhosis. Preliminary clinical trials have shown that drugs that inhibit the activity of sex steroids can control the growth and invasiveness of hepatocellular carcinoma in certain patients. Thus, the aim of our further study was to elucidate the qualitative and quantitative changes in immunocompetent liver cells during chemical castration of male rats caused by the introduction of a solution of triptorelin acetate at different time intervals.

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.
