Review

This paper, titled "EKSISTENSI MAHKAMAH KONSTITUSI DALAM RANGKAPENGUJIAN KONSTITUSIONALITAS UNDANG-UNDANG," provides a timely and relevant exploration of the Indonesian Constitutional Court's role in constitutional review. The core objective is to elucidate the Court's existence and, more critically, to differentiate its function between affirming interpretations and acting as a negative legislator. Employing a normative research methodology, supplemented by statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, the study seeks to deepen understanding of judicial power and its boundaries within Indonesia's legal framework. The research successfully highlights that the Constitutional Court's function in affirming interpretations is fundamental to its identity as "the guardian of constitution." This role is shown to be crucial for ensuring substantive justice, thereby providing a robust justification for its existence and actions in the Indonesian context. This finding offers valuable insight into the delicate balance between judicial independence and legislative authority, contributing significantly to the discourse on constitutionalism and the rule of law in developing democracies. A key strength of this study lies in its forward-looking recommendation: advocating for the legislature to establish clear parameters and criteria for the Constitutional Court's interpretive activities. This practical suggestion addresses a critical area of potential friction and ambiguity, proposing a structured approach to delineate the boundaries of judicial activism and restraint. Future research could build upon these findings by exploring comparative perspectives from other jurisdictions or delving into the practical and political challenges associated with formulating such legislative guidelines. Overall, this paper makes a commendable contribution to understanding the dynamics of judicial review in Indonesia.
