Journal History

Soetomo Justice is a Student Journal published by the Faculty of Law, University of Dr. Soetomo, which will be published periodically, twice a year in February and August, and contains articles, studies, and research results. This journal was originally published as a forum to provide space for students to contribute to the development of law and justice. However, to open up space and access to law bearers, this journal is intended for students, researchers, academics, and practitioners in the context of law and justice development. Soetomo Justice is committed to significantly contributing to the development of legal science, human rights advocacy, public policy, and social justice issues. Established as an academic and professional forum, the journal aims to bridge conceptual and practical thinking in the field of law, making Soetomo Justice a primary source for renewing insights and ideas in legal studies. The journal carries the spirit and values of the struggle of national hero Dr. Soetomo, the founder of the modern movement in Indonesia who aspired to justice, humanity, and freedom of thought as the foundation of nation-building. As a commitment to this vision, Soetomo Justice pays special attention to progressive and contextual legal studies, taking into account social, economic, political, and cultural dynamics.
