Post the issuance of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation, the public paid more attention by continuing to protest and criticize. This response occurred due to various legislative deviations noticed during the legislative process of the Job Creation Bill by not adhering to the principles and procedures for the formation of laws and regulations. The main cause for this deviation is due to the ethics of the legislators who are not thoroughly compliant and obedient toward the statutory regulations and social ethics. Legislators’ understanding of law and life tends to be influenced by materialistic-positivistic views that bring forth consumptive, hedonistic, and secular demeanors and behaviors. On this basis, this paper tries to criticize and reconstruct the legislators’ ethics in law-making. This study is using a normative juridical method and is supported by a philosophical approach. The outcomes of this research show that the process in the making of the Job Creation Bill tends to override the principle of transparency and public participation with a closed and hasty pattern so that it is a complete ulterior hasty agenda that prioritizes the concept of regulating and monitoring only (top-down). A work ethic based on prophetic values that are supported by the ground principles of a prophetic paradigm that includes humanization, liberation, and transcendence into a new form of construction to be able to create a better and just legislative process.
The format for regulating new and renewable energy in the draft law on new and renewable energy in Indonesia still contains many polemics and problems. This is motivated by various problems of conception and substance in it, such as misconceptions about nomenclature, problems with institutional formats, licensing problems, and the accommodation of nuclear energy. This paper aims to analyze the potential impacts and prospects of energy using a green constitution point of view. This study used normative juridical research with a statutory and conceptual approach. The results show that the environment is the dominant entity affected by energy management and utilization activities, both fossil energy and new renewable energy with different potential impacts. The prospect of a green constitution has been contained in the draft law on new and renewable energy, but it cannot be realized optimally because transition policies in Indonesia still have dual orientations and overlapping arrangements. The principles of a green constitution can be a guiding concept and norm for the format of regulation and implementation of the use and utilization of new and renewable energy so that it is in line with the values of environmental protection and preservation.
This article is the result of research on the heart article in the 3 Constitutional Court Decisions which canceled the entire contents of the law, namely the Constitutional Court Decision Number 001-021-022/PUU-I/2003 which canceled Law Number 20 of 2002 concerning Electricity, Constitutional Court Decision 006/PUU-IV/2006 which canceled Law 27 of 2004 concerning the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Constitutional Court Decisions 11-14-21-126 and 136/PUU-VII/2009 which canceled the Law Number 9 of 2009 concerning Legal Education Entities, and the Constitutional Court Decision 85/PUU-XI/2013 which canceled Law Number 7 of 2004 concerning Water Resources. The term 'heart article' is the term coined by the Constitutional Court and used as the main reason for canceling the entire contents of the law. Unfortunately, in these decisions, the Constitutional Court did not elaborate further on the concept and characteristics of an article categorized as the heart article. Departing from this issue, this research aims to find out what are the concepts and characteristics of the "heart article" of a law that was completely canceled by the Constitutional Court? To help answer this question, this research employed a normative method intended to trace all legal materials, both of the Constitutional Court decisions, statutory regulations, to the literature supporting the research. The importance of this research is to give meaning to the concept of the heart article, which, in the development of legal science, is still rarely discussed. Moreover, it can serve as a reference for petitioners to conduct the judicial review and to identify whether the article being tested is the heart article.
