Jurnal Hukum Progresif (JHP), rendered in English as the Progressive Law Journal, is a peer-reviewed academic journal in legal studies published by the Doctoral Program in Law, Faculty of Law, Universitas Diponegoro, Semarang, Indonesia. The journal is rooted in the intellectual legacy of Professor Satjipto Rahardjo, one of Indonesia’s most influential legal scholars and the principal originator of progressive legal thought. His scholarship maintains that law should not be understood merely as a rigid system of rules, but as an institution that must serve humanity, substantive justice, and social welfare.
First published in 2005, Jurnal Hukum Progresif is issued biannually, in April and October. The journal publishes manuscripts exclusively in English, provides immediate open access to its content, and applies a double-blind peer-review process. It serves as an international scholarly platform for national, comparative, transnational, and interdisciplinary legal studies, particularly those that critically examine the relationship between law, justice, power, and social transformation.
Jurnal Hukum Progresif publishes Original Research Articles, Conceptual or Theoretical Articles, and Review Articles addressing contemporary legal developments. Its primary orientation is progressive legal scholarship informed by non-positivistic, socio-legal, critical, comparative, and interdisciplinary perspectives. The journal prioritises contributions that move beyond the formal description of legislation and judicial decisions to analyse how law is created, interpreted, implemented, contested, and experienced within social, political, economic, cultural, religious, technological, and environmental contexts.
The journal’s areas of interest include, but are not limited to, progressive jurisprudence and legal philosophy; human rights and social justice; gender, sexuality, and reproductive justice; criminal justice reform, victim protection, restorative justice, and penal policy; legal pluralism, customary law, living law, and indigenous justice; disability rights, inclusive education, and access to justice; law, technology, artificial intelligence, digital platforms, cybercrime, and intellectual property; environmental, energy, land, and sustainable development law; as well as governance, public policy, regulatory reform, transparency, and state accountability.
The journal also welcomes studies in private law, criminal law, constitutional law, administrative law, procedural law, business law, international law, and Islamic law, provided that they offer a clear critical, progressive, comparative, rights-based, or socially significant contribution. Multidisciplinary submissions are encouraged where legal analysis remains central and substantial.
Jurnal Hukum Progresif aims to disseminate original and high-quality legal scholarship to a broad academic and professional audience. It seeks to advance legal knowledge and progressive legal theory, strengthen evidence-based law and public policy, and promote legal institutions that are just, inclusive, responsive, accountable, and attentive to the needs of society.
The journal welcomes submissions from authors worldwide. Every manuscript must constitute original scholarly work and must present its arguments, methods, sources, findings, and conclusions accurately, transparently, and responsibly. Manuscripts must not have been published previously, must not be under consideration by another publication, and must not be submitted elsewhere while undergoing editorial assessment or peer review at Jurnal Hukum Progresif.

Manuscripts exceeding this threshold may be returned for clarification or revision or may be rejected, depending on the sources, extent, and context of the identified similarities.

Regardless of the overall similarity percentage, manuscripts containing unattributed reproduction, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, duplicate or redundant publication, citation manipulation, fabricated or falsified data, undisclosed use of third-party material, or other forms of research and publication misconduct will be rejected or otherwise addressed in accordance with the journal’s publication ethics and research integrity policies.
