Abstract

The rise of criminal acts of corruption, which are mainly committed by government officials, is increasing so that the impact of corruption develops in society. The Indonesian government has received a lot of prejudice and calls in recent times to be serious in fighting corruption. Especially with the news that many law enforcement officers have committed corruption, heinous acts, extortion, and power. Some still believe that only repressive means can defeat corruption. Today's social, economic, and political conditions pave the way for massive, systematic, and structured corruption in various fields of life, including state institutions, government forums, and government forums. In finance and many other areas of civic life. The puzzle of this academic study is, "Why is the resolution of corruption cases in Indonesia not currently using restorative justice?" Anti-corruption is achieved through a comprehensive and systematic policy that aims to integrate anti-crime policies and comprehensive system development policies. Eradication of criminal acts of corruption is carried out through a comprehensive system policy that aims to integrate crime prevention strategies with a comprehensive system development strategy. Anti-corruption efforts are repressive and preventive, integrated and synergistic in nature because only repressive efforts are aimed at overcoming the characteristics and aspects of corruption whose effectiveness has not been tested. One of the basic objectives of eradicating corruption in Indonesia is to restore state loss. However, the paradigm of retributive justice is the legal basis for eradicating criminal acts of corruption and the punishment of corruptors is irrelevant to the main objective of the law on corruption eradication in Indonesia. What is actually important in the spirit of eradicating corruption is the recovery of state losses In fact, it is only an additional punishment that can also be replaced by imprisonment. This article is intended to examine the concept of sentencing perpetrators of corruption that is relevant to be applied in Indonesia according to what is required by law taking into account the development of life nation and state today. The study focuses on deepening the concept of restorative justice for maximizing returns on state finances in criminalizing corruption offenders in Indonesia. By using normative juridical research methods, this study concludes that the concept of restorative justice is the deep sentencing of perpetrators of corruption can be implemented in the form of strengthening norms of restitution of state losses as an additional punishment to the main punishment. As for anticipating that the perpetrator is unable to pay for the loss, then the concept of forced labor can be applied rather than imprison perpetrators of criminal acts of corruption).
