Peran dan Tantangan Arbitrase Online dalam Penyelesaian Sengketa Niaga Internasional: Studi Kasus Perusahaan Start-Up di Indonesia
Keywords:
arbitrase online, start-up Indonesia, sengketa niaga internasional, tantangan regulasi, ODRAbstract
Perkembangan teknologi digital telah mendorong munculnya arbitrase online (Online Dispute Resolution/ODR) sebagai mekanisme inovatif penyelesaian sengketa niaga internasional bagi perusahaan start-up Indonesia, yang beroperasi dalam ekosistem fintech, e-commerce, dan edtech dengan transaksi cross-border yang kompleks seperti investasi venture capital dan lisensi IP. Artikel ini mengkaji peran ODR melalui analisis doktrinal, perbandingan hukum, dan studi kasus empiris, menunjukkan bahwa kerangka internasional seperti UNCITRAL Model Law dan Konvensi New York memberikan legitimasi kuat, sementara regulasi nasional (UU Arbitrase 1999 dan UU ITE 2008) masih ambigu, menciptakan legal uncertainty dan tantangan procedural fairness tanpa kehadiran fisik. Temuan utama mengungkap keunggulan ODR dalam efisiensi biaya-waktu serta aksesibilitas global yang selaras dengan keterbatasan resources start-up, namun dihambat oleh isu teknis seperti digital divide, cybersecurity, dan ketimpangan bargaining power dengan mitra asing. Dibandingkan litigasi konvensional, ODR lebih efektif untuk sengketa ringan, meskipun eksekusi putusan rentan penolakan pengadilan. Artikel berargumen bahwa potensi ODR untuk mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi digital Indonesia dalam RCEP dan BIT dapat terealisasi melalui reformasi regulasi progresif, peningkatan kapasitas literasi hukum, dan infrastruktur blockchain-based, sehingga berkontribusi pada sistem penyelesaian sengketa yang inklusif dan responsif terhadap globalisasi 5.0.
