“…Constructs of rape and sexual abuse can influence statistics. Additionally, many legal constructs of various forms of rape can differ among countries, international conventions, and, at the decentralized level, within individual communities [35,39,40,77,78].…”

“…And consent is not a defense" ([76], p. 15). Yet, most international human rights conventions indicate that statutory rape laws differ in variations of 'age of consent' and whether the child's consent at the time matters and issues of force involvement [39,77,78]. This research indicates that respondents' concepts of sexual abuse can often differ from legal definitions.…”

Background: Rape scholarship in West Africa is growing, but studies often utilize Westernized approaches. A 2018 study using a randomized survey design assessing rape among Liberian girls incorporated modified survey design methods to improve ethical data collection relevant to the cultural and contextual contexts. This article presents the findings of a thorough review of rape scholarship and design methods. Methods: Based on a qualitative analysis of field notes by the research team, we present lessons learned and best practices identified in the planning, pilot-testing, and implementation phases of the 2018 Liberian study. Results: This study helps inform innovative design methods striving to (1) avoid using obtrusively graphic language or labels prevalent in westernized studies, (2) authentically collaborate with African experts to adapt strategies to be culturally appropriate and contextually relevant, and (3) create respectfully transparent interactions with respondents and communities. Extensive research preparation and inclusive regional expertise inform compassionate methodological techniques, yielding improved Afro-centric participant experience, low participant attrition, and quality data use in policymaking. (4) Conclusions: This article offers innovative design methods to study rape, placing context, culture, and participants at the heart. Authentic collaboration with national-level experts is vital for conducting more reliable and ethical field research in the African region.

“…İslam dini, evlilik sözleşmesini, eşlerin karşılıklı sorumluluklarını yerine getirdiği ve özgür iradeleriyle taahhüt ettikleri bir güven sözleşmesi olarak kabul etmektedir. Bu tür bir sözleşmenin gerçekleşebilmesi için bireylerin özgür iradelerine sahip olmalarının önemli olduğu vurgulanmaktadır [53]. Ayrıca, herhangi bir zorlama olmadan gerçekleşen ve kadınların tüm haklarının, denklik (kadın-erkek eşitliği) dahil olmak üzere, gözetildiği özgür iradeli evlilik, ailenin kalıcı huzur ve mutluluğunu sağlamak için önemli bir yol olarak görülmektedir.…”

Agonistik demokrasi, liberal demokrasinin krizine bir çözüm önerisi olarak Chantal Mouffe ve Ernesto Laclau tarafından kavramlaştırılmıştır. Agonistik demokrasi, antagonizma ve hegemonya olmak üzere iki temel kavram üzerine odaklanmaktadır. Agonistik demokrasi antagonizmaların agonizmaya dönüştürülmesini ifade eder. Ehlileştirilmiş antagonizmayı, çatışmalı konsensüsü, farklıkları tanımayı ve kabullenmeyi, siyasi alanda çoğulcu demokrasiyi savunmaktadır. Çalışmada, parti içi muhalefet agonistik demokrasi örneği midir? sorusuna yanıt aranmaktadır. Parti içi muhalefet agonistik demokrasi ile bağdaşmakta fakat uygulamada farklılıklar olması açısından değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Çalışmanın yöntemi literatür taraması, sosyal medya analizi, gazete ve demeçler derlemesi, parti tüzüğü incelemesi üzerine oluşturulmuştur. Çalışma konusunun daha önce çalışılmamış olmasından dolayı ulusal yazına katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.

“…Perlindungan hukum terhadap anak merupakan upaya hukum untuk menjamin dan melindungi anak dan haknya agar mampu bertumbuh, berkembang, dan berpartisipasi secara optimal sesuai dengan harkat dan martabat kemanusiaan (Buck, 2020). Perlindungan hukum terhadap anak selain bertujuan untuk melindungi anak, juga memberikan jaminan dan pengakuan untuk keberlangsungan hidup anak terutama untuk mengembangkan anak dan melindunginya dalam setiap situasi hukum seperti menjadi korban, sanksi, maupun tersangka (Roost, Horn, & Koski, 2022;Fors, 2020;Zhao, Hämäläinen, & Chen, 2017). Ada empat prinsip utama dalam perlindungan hukum anak, yakni (1) anak-anak harus hidup bebas dari diskriminasi; (2) semua tindakan yang menyangkut anak-baik publik maupun privat harus mempertimbangkan kepentingan anak; (3) negara memiliki kewajiban untuk menjamin kelangsungan hidup anak dan perkembangannya; dan (4) anak memiliki hak secara bebas untuk mengekspresikan pandangan mereka.…”

Researchers will examine the legal protection of the rights of children who enter into underage marriages. The purpose of this study is to show the impact of the ease of granting marital dispensation on children's development rights, namely how the legal protection of children's self-development rights is due to marital dispensation. The type of research used is normative legal research. The research approach used is the statutory approach and the comparative approach. The type of data in normative research is secondary data obtained through library research or documentation studies. Based on the results of the research, it turns out that there are still many parents who apply for marriage dispensation for children who are underage so they can get married. Therefore it is necessary to take action as an effort to provide legal protection to children. First, the government needs to review the Marriage Law, namely the need to add an article that regulates in detail the reasons for applying for a marriage dispensation. Second, it is necessary for the community to gain an understanding of the bad consequences that arise from underage marriages based on marriage dispensation.
