Abstract

The trans-boundary pollution has become a major issue within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) when the forest fi res took place in Indonesia. Indonesia’s neighboring countries had to face problems dealing with the smoke and haze that spread into their territories. ASEAN Member States’ attempts to combat the smoke and haze problem depicted on Agreement on Trans-boundary Haze Pollution (Haze Agreement), which up to now Indonesia has been the only State that has not ratified the agreement. The reluctance of Indonesia to ratify the agreement becomes a problem to the enforcement. It is contrary to the argument that the ratification is believed to bring some benefits for Indonesia from transfer of knowledge and technology and also from research. While Haze Agreement requires cooperation among ASEAN Member States to reach the objectives of the agreement, the cooperation itself is not limited to the participation of the whole members at the same time, but also possible to conduct such cooperation in form of bilateral effort or other kind of accepted by the parties. With some flexibilities offered by the Haze Agreement, the effectiveness of the agreement does not rely only on the commitment shown by the ratification of ASEAN Member States to the agreement, but also relies on the level compliance that shown by their effort to combat the possibility of upcoming trans-boundary pollution matters within the region.

Abstract

This article examines the critical role of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in mitigating carbon emissions within the framework of international law, with a focused case study on PT. Solusi Bangun Andalas (SBA). The research aims to identify the carbon emission reduction initiatives undertaken by SBA as part of its CSR commitments. To achieve this, the study employs a mixed-methods approach, incorporating primary data collected through field research, including interviews with key stakeholders and direct observations, alongside an extensive review of legal literature, regulations, and theoretical frameworks as secondary sources. The findings highlight that the Paris Agreement serves as a pivotal instrument for global climate action, offering a structured approach to addressing climate change by establishing a steadfast goal of limiting global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius. This international accord not only sets the stage for coordinated efforts to curb carbon emissions but also underscores the responsibility of corporations like SBA in contributing to these global objectives. The implementation of effective carbon reduction strategies aligns with Indonesia's commitment to enhancing its environmental sustainability and fulfilling its international obligations. Ultimately, this study contributes to the broader discourse on the significance of corporate responsibility in fostering environmental stewardship and emphasizes the imperative for businesses to adopt sustainable practices in their operations, ensuring that economic growth does not come at the expense of the planet's health

Abstract

The burning of the Quran, widely regarded as the holy book of Islam, has sparked significant outrage and debate across various European Union states, particularly in Sweden. This provocative act raises critical questions about the balance between individual freedom of expression and the respect for religious beliefs. The European Union, through its commitment to democratic principles, often upholds freedom of expression as a fundamental right. However, this raises the issue of whether such expressions can rightfully include acts that are deeply offensive to large segments of the population, particularly religious communities. This paper explores these tensions within the framework of the development of the international human rights system, providing a nuanced analysis of responses from Muslim scholars, organizations, and associated states. It also scrutinizes the impact of Western human rights paradigms on global practices, specifically in contexts such as Indonesia. This paper found a fundamental crisis of western based of human rights and the lack of sound argument from muslim world to contribute to this lacking.
