Regional Model Bit’s : A New Down For the Developing Countries

Foreign direct investment (FDI) plays a crucial role in the economic sector, particularly in developing countries. BIT lays down instrumental principles which help to protect investors’ establishments in host states, by inter alia encouraging prompt compensation in case of expropriation. Governments need FDIs to gear up their economic growth, advance technology, and scale down unemployment. Most scholarly writings are in favor that BIT is a necessary tool for promoting FDIs, however this study takes a different approach and categorically unveils the draw backs of BIT in developing countries by highlighting some of the contentious provisions that have sparked unprecedented legal, economic, sociopolitical and diplomatic strife between the host countries, investors and investors’ home countries. Therefore, the author proposes development for regional Model BITs that would go in line with national laws to curtail the persisting sovereignty and socio-economic challenges.

Human Rights and Global Environment

Human rights and the environment are interconnected and mutually reinforcing. The concern of a group of people for the environment is not enough because changes in an environment have an impact not only locally, but often globally. Therefore it can be said that in countries where there are many violations of human rights, environmental damage often occurs. What happened then was that the human right to have a healthy life (the right to a healthy environment) was violated or sidelined. In addition, development that is not controlled can result in human rights being violated. Regulations regarding human rights are not entirely related to environmental protection. However, if you pay attention, there are several articles in some of these provisions that can be used as a legal basis for taking various actions aimed at protecting the environment. On the other hand, regulation of environmental protection at the same time means respect for human rights, especially with regard to issues of the right to life, health problems, disturbance of their property to respect for indigenous peoples' rights.

The Future Of Law From The Jurisprudence Perspective For Example: The Influence Of Science & Technology To Law, AI Law

The field of law is as old as the human civilization. In the ancient Holy Scriptures the laws of humans, God made Laws, laws of nature, cultural laws, trade laws etc. have been discussed around the world. Even in the stone ages humans were following certain principles and laws which were the basis of law. The sense of right and wrong, truth and lie, positive and negative and so on is something engraved in the humans. Although there is another aspect that some humans consider the wrong as right and right as wrong. There have been different eras in which the scholars of law have made their valuable contributions in their respective societies and communities. The scholars of law are widely known as jurists of law and their contribution has evolved the philosophy of law which is called the Jurisprudence of law. The world in which we are living has laws which have basis from the contributions of renowned scholars of law from different cultures and parts of the world. This article touches the historical perspective, present scenario and future of law. Especially the use of technology in law has brought a revolutionary change in recent decades. The computers, cell phones, social media, internet as a whole, Google play store applications, laptops, i pods and various other devices have made significant changes in old practices and present day practices in the field of law. The judges, law teachers, professors, lawyers, litigants and all persons associated with them are taking immaculate advantage of technology in the field of law. The research methods and techniques have been made simple. This is a fast world in which we are living. No one has time for anything in this era. With the use of technology many time consuming activities can be performed in minutes and seconds in this era. We are heading in a direction of more human friendly and time saving environment. Although humans in different parts of the world have different cultures, norms, ethics, eating habits, religions, physical appearances and opinions but there are certain norms and international practices which are widely accepted around the world. Probably the future of law cannot be predicted at this moment of time because sometimes what the eyes see cannot be spoken rather it can only be seen with the passage of time.

The Tradition of Ngerampag Traditional Village of Subagan Karangasem Bali in Criminal Law Perspective

In Bali Province, there are various kinds of unique traditions that have been preserved from the past until now, one of which is the Ngerampag Tradition which is found in the Subagan Traditional Village, Karangasem Regency, Bali. However, in its implementation, this tradition has received complaints from some migrant communities who live in the Subagan Adat Village area, because this tradition takes natural products and pets without the knowledge and permission of the owner. The formulation of the problem in this research is how the implementation of the Ngerampag Tradition in the Subagan Traditional Village in the perspective of criminal law and how are the sanctions for people in the Subagan Traditional Village who commit the Ngerampag Tradition whose actions are considered contrary to criminal law in Indonesia. The method used in this research is empirical legal research method, namely a research method through interviews conducted through direct observation. The implementation of the Ngerampag Tradition in the Subagan Traditional Village is basically an activity that violates the law because in its implementation it takes the natural contents of residents other than those mentioned in awig-awig without the permission or the knowledge of the owner. These activities are expressly prohibited in the positive law (KUHP) Articles 362-367 concerning theft. So that in its implementation the Ngerampag Tradition sometimes creates misunderstandings, especially for immigrants who live in the Subagan Village area.

Strategies in Countering Hoax and Hate Speech in Indonesia

Hoax and Hate Speech are cyber-crimes that are closely related to ideological, political and religious issues. In Indonesia, just before the 2019 Presidential Election, this crime is very common, mainly used to attack political opponents. In this study, we provide several samples of Hoax and Hate Speech crimes, namely those with ideological, political and religious nuances. We consider these three crime samples to be sufficient to illustrate that Hoax and Hate Speech greatly influence the stability of domestic security. Based on the results of research conducted at the Directorate of Cyber Crime Enforcement of the Indonesian Police Criminal Investigation Agency, we can conclude that the strategic steps that must be taken to tackle Hoax and Hate Speech are Preventive Efforts in the form of Cyber Patrol, Hoax labeling, analyzing media opinion trends, dissemination positive news through text media, clarification and public information, security carried out by cover names, cover jobs, and cover stories, and countermeasures. Then, to provide a deterrent effect to the community, repressive efforts through law enforcement activities must be carried out including investigations by means of the Cyber Patrol to find cyber-crime, providing technical assistance and tactical investigations, investigating units in the region in order to uncover networks of cyber perpetrators, providing assistance in examining digital evidence, and cooperating by exchanging information for the purpose of researching and investigating cyber-crime. With the coping methods described above, especially inter-regional police cooperation that is centrally controlled by maximizing technology, the Indonesian police are able to uncover and dismantle networks of cyber-crime perpetrators that occur in Indonesia such as hoaxes, hate speeches and terrorism.
