Abstract

This study explores the practical application of the supervisory function vested in the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia concerning safeguarding copyright for musical works, as delineated by Law Number 28 of 2014. The primary focus lies in assessing the effectiveness of the regulatory framework in place to protect the intellectual property rights of creators in the music industry. The research employs a multidisciplinary approach, incorporating legal analysis, policy evaluation, and case studies to gauge the implementation of Law Number 28 of 2014. It investigates the Ministry's role in overseeing the enforcement of copyright protection measures, addressing challenges faced, and proposing potential improvements to enhance the efficacy of the supervisory function. Key aspects under scrutiny include the Ministry's mechanisms for monitoring copyright infringement, facilitating legal recourse for rights holders, and fostering collaboration between stakeholders in the music industry. Additionally, the study explores the adaptation of supervisory practices to technological advancements, such as digital platforms and online distribution channels, which pose unique challenges to copyright protection. The findings aim to provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the current supervisory framework, offering recommendations for legislative adjustments, administrative enhancements, and collaborative initiatives. Ultimately, this research contributes to the ongoing discourse on intellectual property protection in the context of the evolving landscape of the music industry in Indonesia, seeking to fortify the legal infrastructure for the benefit of creators, consumers, and the broader cultural ecosystem.
