The literature on the role of law in countries with so‐called hybrid regimes that are stuck somewhere between democracy and authoritarianism tends to dwell on the politicization of law and the courts. This has the effect of discounting the importance of the vast majority of cases that are decided in accord with the law. Taking Russia as a case study, this essay reviews a cross‐section of the literature on its courts in order to document this tendency and explore why alternative narratives of law have failed to gain traction: Burbank's Russian Peasants Go to Court (2004); Feifer's Justice in Moscow (1964); Kaminskaya's Final Judgment (1982); Ledeneva's Can Russia Modernise? (2013); McDonald's Face to the Village (2011); Politkovskaya's Putin's Russia (2004); Popova's Politicized Justice in Emerging Democracies (2012); and Romanova's Butyrka (2010).

Current Role

In this article, I review a cross-section of research in socio-hydrology from across disciplines in order to better understand the current role of historical-archival analysis in the development of socio-hydrological scholarship. I argue that despite its widespread use in environmental history, science and technology studies, anthropology, and human geography, archival methods are currently underutilized in socio-hydrological scholarship more broadly, particularly in the development of socio-hydrological models. Drawing on archival research conducted in relation to the socio-hydrology of coastal Guyana, I demonstrate the ways in which such scholarship can be readily incorporated into model development.

The business entity owned by the Village, as an economic institution at the village level, established to improve the economic welfare of the village community. One of the efforts made is to increase awareness behavior in saving. The behavior of villagers in saving  is often still short-term oriented, so most villagers have not been able to manage finances to anticipate their financial problems in the future. Therefore, research on the role of BUMDes as a village-scale economic institution in improving the financial management capabilities of the village community is very important to do. The purpose of this research is to find out how the role of business entities have    in improving the financial management capabilities of the community through  savings products with a savings pick-up system.  This research uses a qualitative approach with case study methods  in Village Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) Pakandangan Emas. Data collection techniques are conducted through interviews and observations in the field. This research found that Unit sharia savings business in BUMDes Pakandangan Emas can shape people's behavior  in long-term financial management. This behavior is formed mainly through a savings system that is directly picked up to the community.

The role of the Desa Pakraman (Pakraman Village) in the implementation of tourism investment in Desa Pakraman is represented by Bendesa as the top prajuru (manager) in the Desa Pakraman. Bendesa is a top official in the structure of organization of Desa Pakraman.

In accordance with the provisions of the Decision of the Pesamuhan I of the Majelis Desa Pakraman Bali (the Bali Pakraman Village Assembly) and the Bali Province Act No. 3 of 2001, the Bendesa is deserved to provide recommendations for any incoming investment into the village. The Bendesa shall get approval of village members for any action he takes. The major factors which affects the implementation of investment in tourism villages, is the role of laws of the village.

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji peranan Majelis Desa Pakraman (MDP) Bali dalam pelaksanaan investasi kepariwisataan di wilayah desa pakraman. Setelah dilakukan pengkajian dengan metode penelitian hukum normatif, akhirnya dapat disimpulkan sebagai berikut. Pertama, faktor penarik pelaksanaan investasi kepariwisataan di wilayah desa pakraman meliputi (a) keindahan alam dan kondisi sosial budaya yang unik dan bernilai tinggi; (b) faktor kebijakan dan regulasi pemerintah yang mendukung pelaksaaan investasi di wilayah desa pakraman; dan (c) di sisi lain desa pakraman dengan awig-awig yang dimilikinya dapat menjadi faktor pengendali bagi pelaksanaan investasi di wilayahnya. Kedua, MDP Bali tidak dapat berperan secara langsung dalam pelaksanaan kepariwisataan di wilayah desa pakraman, sebab pelaksanaan investasi di wilayah desa pakraman merupakan urusan otonomi desa pakraman yang bersangkutan. MDP Bali hanya dapat berperan: (a) memberi saran, usul dan pendapat kepada pihak-pihak yang berkepentingan; (b) mendorong desa pakraman untuk mengendalikan investasi di wilayahnya. Dorongan tersebut dituangkan dalam Keputusan MDP Bali Nomor 050/Kep/Psm-1/MDP Bali/III/2006 yang menegaskan bahwa setiap investasi di wilayah desa pakraman wajib mendapat rekomendasi dari desa pakraman. (3) Upaya yang dapat dilakukan oleh MDP Bali dalam penyelesaian konflik di bidang investasi kepariwisataan di wilayah desa pakraman adalah menjadi mediator dalam penyelesaian konflik yang dilakukan oleh para pihak.

For an industry, business sustainability is a critical aspect to be addressed by the company to remain relevant in an ever competitive market demand. In doing so, one of the strategies that can be taken is through adhering to all laws and legal requirements, particularly on halal aspect. The establishment of the Internal Halal Committee (IHC) is part of the requirement stipulated by the Malaysia Guidelines on Halal Assurance System 2011 (HAS 2011) and Manual Procedure for Malaysia Halal Certification (Third Revision) 2014 (MPPHM 2014). These laws must be read together with standards, Fatwa decisions, and regulations which are enforced pertaining to Malaysia Halal Certification. The law requires the establishment of IHC together with the appointment of a halal executive, supervisor, and also checkers in order to ensure that products are in accordance with standards prescribed by the law and Shariah principles in Malaysia.

It was revealed that strict legal requirements imposed by the government on halal products and compliance by the company have helped the company to gain more confidence from its existing and potential customers in relation to their products, hence ensuring sustainability of the business in the market.
