Documentary abstract — original language

The enforcement of law and justice in Indonesia represents a pivotal issue in the pursuit of a democratic and civilized legal system.Despite the existence of a written legal framework and operational law enforcement agencies, the practice of law remains plagued by challenges such as unequal access to justice, conflicting regulations, political interference, and insufficient judicial accountability.This research employs a qualitative methodology, utilizing literature review and case study approaches, integrating both normative (legal norms) and empirical (legal implementation practices) perspectives.The novelty of this study lies in its integrative analysis, which bridges the gap between legal norms and the practical realities encountered in the field, with particular emphasis on the application of substantive justice in cases involving vulnerable groups.The findings indicate that law enforcement in Indonesia continues to be largely formalistic, often failing to uphold core principles of humanity and moral justice.This research contributes to the field by offering recommendations for legal reform that emphasize substantive justice, enhance the integrity of law enforcement institutions, and promote greater public involvement in the legal process.Consequently, the implementation of law should not only serve as an instrument of social control but also as a means of achieving social justice and safeguarding human rights.
