Introduction

The role of lpsk towards the distribution of losses and distributive justice to victims. Discover the Witness and Victim Protection Agency's (LPSK) role in distributing losses and achieving distributive justice for crime victims. Examine challenges & legal framework.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the role of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) in the distribution of losses experienced by victims and its contribution to realizing distributive justice. The problem formulations proposed in this research are: (1) What is the form of loss distribution provided by LPSK to victims of crime? and (2) What are the challenges faced by LPSK in implementing loss distribution and realizing distributive justice for victims? This research uses a normative juridical approach by analyzing the applicable laws and regulations as well as the LPSK annual report as research material.

Review

This article proposes to examine a highly pertinent and critical area of victimology and legal studies: the role of the Witness and Victim Protection Agency (LPSK) in the distribution of losses to victims and its contribution to distributive justice. The research aims are clearly articulated, addressing both the practical mechanisms of loss distribution by the LPSK and the challenges it faces in upholding principles of fairness. This topic holds significant importance given the ongoing global discourse on victim rights, state responsibility, and the effectiveness of institutional frameworks in delivering restorative and distributive justice to those who have suffered from crime. The clear problem formulations provide a focused scope, promising an insightful analysis into the operational effectiveness and systemic hurdles faced by such a vital agency. The methodology outlined, a normative juridical approach, appears well-suited to the research questions. By analyzing applicable laws and regulations, the study can effectively map the legal framework governing LPSK's functions in victim compensation. The inclusion of the LPSK annual report as research material adds a valuable dimension, allowing the study to move beyond pure doctrine to incorporate insights into the practical implementation and performance of the agency. This combination offers the potential for a robust analysis that grounds legal theory in real-world application, providing a comprehensive understanding of how the LPSK operates within its legal mandate. The potential impact of this research is substantial, offering valuable insights that could inform policy reforms and enhance the efficacy of victim protection mechanisms. The findings are likely to contribute significantly to the discourse on victim compensation and justice systems, particularly within the Indonesian context where the LPSK operates. For the full manuscript, it would be beneficial to clearly define the specific theoretical understanding of "distributive justice" adopted for the analysis, and to elaborate on how the LPSK's actions are measured against this framework. Furthermore, a detailed explanation of how the data from the LPSK annual report will be systematically analyzed to address the "challenges" question would strengthen the methodological clarity and ensure a rigorous investigation into this complex area.
