Focus and Scope

NOVUM: Jurnal Hukum is a peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to the advancement of legal scholarship with a primary emphasis on law reform examined through philosophical perspectives. The journal provides a scholarly forum for original research articles, conceptual analyses, and critical reviews that explore the foundations, evolution, and transformation of law in response to societal change.
Focusing on philosophical inquiry into legal norms, values, and reasoning, NOVUM encourages contributions that critically assess legal reform from perspectives such as legal philosophy, jurisprudence, legal theory, and normative analysis. The journal welcomes interdisciplinary approaches that connect law with philosophy, ethics, political theory, and social thought, particularly in examining the legitimacy, justice, and rationality of legal change.
By integrating theoretical reflection with contemporary legal issues, NOVUM seeks to promote rigorous debate on legal reform, normative development, and the direction of law in both national and comparative contexts, thereby contributing to a deeper and more reflective understanding of law as a dynamic and value-laden system.
