- Abstract
The Covid-19 has changed many aspects of our lives today. We are physically distancing but psychologically closer with the use of digital devices. The intensity of internet usage is increased during the pandemic. The cons about physically distancing are it can lead to misinformation, bias in the usage of digital communication devices. One of the vulnerable groups is adolescence with a social group. The cases of violence to women and children are increased during the pandemic in 2020, especially in Indonesia. One of the examples is the increasing number of children dealing with law in Bojonegoro Region, one of the cultural cities in East Java, especially in the case of beating by some adolescent groups. The purpose of this study is to find out the general description of the background of children who are dealing with the law involved in the beatings with other groups (Article 170 KUHP) and their relationship with the Covid-19 pandemic in Bojonegoro City, Indonesia. The method used in this paper is a systematic literature review. Data is obtained from an in-depth interview by Pembimbing Kemasyarakatan (the Correctional Officer) about the psychosocial background from the criminal acts (Art. 170 KUHP). The factors for the crime committed by children are strong solidarity between youth groups and misinformation that occurs due to the increasing use of social media among teenagers during the pandemic. It can trigger fights between groups (Perguruan Silat) that are often found in Javanese Culture, especially in East Java. Now it can be a challenge in digitalization, school, and legal empowerment in public space. Things that can be done are to minimize the use of digital communication, increase the role of parents in supervising children, and empowering positive activities during a pandemic.
