“…According to Plato, justice is a virtue establishing rational order, with each part performing its appropriate role and not interfering with the proper functioning of other parts (Bhandari 2014), while Aristotle was of the view that justice consists of what is lawful and fair, including equitable distributions (Roger 1994). Rawls analysed justice in terms of maximum equal liberty regarding basic rights and duties for all members of society, with socio-economic inequalities requiring moral justification in terms of equal opportunity and beneficial results for all (Surovtsev & Syrov 2015). Even though there are differences between the jurists, the core idea of justice still revolves around fairness and equality.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in changes in the way working is perceived. The concept of work from home which was previously only associated with specific types of work has had to be implemented for many sectors in Malaysia. This concept is novel in Malaysia, thus creating a lot of uncertainties in both law and practice, including the issue of work ethics. This mode of working may be the new norm in the future, which makes it important to examine the work ethics for work from home. The objectives of this study are firstly, to analyse the concept of Islamic work ethics, and secondly, to integrate Islamic work ethics in a work from home arrangement. It is believed that the application of Islamic work ethics by both the employers and the employees may avoid conflicts at work due to different expectations. In this context, the research is based on secondary sources and analyses of existing literature, and on reading of Islamic texts (the Quran and Hadith). Islamic work ethics consist of universal values where they underline the responsibilities of employer to live up to promises, consider an employee’s situation, negotiate with an employee to improve their contract, and equal treatment of employees. Apart from that, employees are also responsible for keeping their promises, being honest, working in a team and performing their jobs in good faith. This research found that Islamic work ethics can hinder conflicts between employer and employee. They are suitable for integration in working from home arrangements as the new normal in Malaysia and directly encourage the implementation of organisational justice.

El artículo expone los principios teóricos de la filosofía política de John Rawls para establecer el vínculo entre democracia constitucional y la teoría de la justicia. Para esto, se exploran primero los conceptos fundamentales de la teoría rawlsiana como principios de justicia, posición original, velo de ignorancia, consenso entrecruzado y razón pública. A partir de allí, se desarrolla una reflexión en torno al papel de la Constitución y del tribunal constitucional; para finalmente concluir que existe una base teórica de justificación de la democracia constitucional en el pensamiento de Rawls.

“…The theory of democracy is that people delegate power to the elected office holders (Rapeli 2014), whereas the theory of justice is to assess various forms of social life and determine the nature of actions against them (Surovtsev and Syrov 2015). Transparency produces legitimacy which is an important factor behind the global transparency fever because it has strong theoretical support.…”

Transparency is a manifestation of good governance in a democratic government. Provision of accurate, clear, and relevant information is highly necessary for achieving an open government and gaining public trust. Today's society tends to have more transparent government, especially with many corruption cases and abuse of authority found in both central and regional lines. This paper will discuss the implementation of transparency in governance that still fails to prevent corruption in Indonesia. The data collection and analysis performed in the study used the literature review method. Several articles on transparency in government as well as supporting documents and case studies were also analyzed. At the moment, methods and measurement tools for transparency are becoming increasingly more sophisticated as they are supported by the advancement of knowledge and information technology, including social media. There are several transparency principles that have been intensively discussed, nonetheless, concurrently it is also argued that transparency has failed and has been ineffective. The number of corruption cases that occurred in several regions is an indication of transparency's failures. Transparency still fails to prevent corruption, which, among others, is caused by conflicts of interest, enforcement difficulty, attitudes and behavior of officials who still have no proper understanding of the importance of transparency, and the implementation of non-standardized information services.
