Pengaruh Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi di Bidang Pengujian Undang-Undang terhadap Sistem Peradilan Pidana Indonesia dengan Perubahan KUHAP
Sistem peradilan pidana melingkupi wilayah formulasi, aplikasi, dan eksekusi. Proses aplikasi dipengaruhi besar oleh formulasi hukum acara pidana yang dikodifikasi ke dalam KUHAP. Sejak MK berdiri dengan kewenangan menguji Undang-Undang terhadap Undang-Undang Dasar, KUHAP telah diuji beberapa kali di Mahkamah Konstitusi. Artikel ini memiliki tujuan untuk menelusuri, mengkaji, dan menjelaskan berbagai putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi di bidang pengujian undang-undang yang berpengaruh terhadap perkembangan hukum pidana formil di Indonesia. Artikel ini disusun atas hasil penelitian hukum normatif yang menggunakan data sekunder berupa bahan hukum primer, bahan hukum sekunder dan bahan hukum tersier. Cara pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan penelitian kepustakaan, sedangkan alat pengumpulan data menggunakan studi dokumen. Analisis data dilakukan secara kualitatif dengan pemaparan secara deskriptif analitis. Artikel ini memberikan dua kesimpulan. Pertama, penelusuran Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi yang dilakukan sejak tahun 2003 sampai dengan 2018 menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 32 (tiga puluh dua) permohonan uji materi terhadap hukum pidana formil. Namun demikian, hanya terdapat 13 (tiga belas) permohonan uji materi terhadap hukum pidana formil yang dikabulkan oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi berkaitan dengan KUHAP. Kedua, terhadap beberapa putusan MK, Mahkamah Agung membuat Perma atau SEMA untuk menyimpangi putusan MK tersebut. The article aims to examine all relevant constitutional court decisions which have impacts on criminal laws, especially in substantive, procedural, and penitentiary law. The article is based on a legal normative research employing secondary data, including primary legal sources, secondary legal sources, and tertiary legal sources. The method in collecting the data is library research. The research tools are documentary studies. The analysis is qualitative which is strengthened by descriptive analysis. There are two conclusive statements of this research. Firstly, the finding on constitutional court decisions showed that 32 (thirty-two) decisions were made for procedural criminal law, but only 13 (thirteen) decisions were in line with the applicants’ objectives which are mainly related to Criminal Procedural Code (KUHAP).

The urgency of law reforms on economic crimes in Indonesia
The Indonesia’s economy has experienced rapid and massive development. Even after its contraction due to the pandemic in 2020, the economic growth of Indonesia is still highly significant. Digital transactions play an important role in the economic development. However, the economic growth may potentially lead to considerable number of economic crimes. To deal with them, the penal policy on economic crimes has not been developed according to the growth. The disparity among criminal provisions in economic sectors results in legal uncertainty in the enforcement of economic crimes. This research aims to shed a light on the current penal policy on economic crimes and the urgency of the reform on the economic criminal law. It is concluded that the Economic Crimes Law 1955 is no longer relevant to eradicate economic crimes in Indonesia. Furthermore, Indonesia Penal Code is far left behind by the current economic development. Therefore, a far-reaching reform is necessary. The partial reform of economic criminal law through various legislations has resulted in the legal uncertainty. For instance, they embrace different corporate criminal liability and sentencing principles. Hence, it is important to formulate a law on the principles of economic criminal law applying to all economic crimes
The Impacts of Constitutional Court Decisions on Criminal Policy of Indonesia: Implikasi Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Terhadap Politik Kriminal Indonesia
Artikel ini bertujuan untuk melihat bagaimana dampak Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi di bidang Pengujian Undang-Undang terhadap perkembangan politik kriminal dan memberikan rekomendasi bagaimana seharusnya MK menguji Undang-Undang pidana di masa yang akan datang. MK sejak berdiri telah menguji berbagai Undang-Undang Pidana di Indonesia, baik dari segi materiil maupun formil. Dalam hukum pidana materiil, MK senyatanya masih konsisten untuk bertindak hanya sebagai negative legislature dan tidak menjadi criminal policy maker. Dalam hukum pidana materiil, MK hanya menjatuhkan putusan untuk dekriminalisasi tindak pidana yang diatur dalam Undang-Undang, seperti dalam pengujian Pasal Penghinaan Presiden dan Perbuatan tidak menyenangkan dalam KUHP. MK juga menolak menghapus unsur “ikatan perkawinan” dalam Pasal 284 KUHP karena berpotensi menjadi kriminalisasi, bukan dekriminalisasi. Namun, pada hukum pidana formil MK bertindak menjadi positive legislature, sebagai contoh dalam putusan penambahan kompetensi praperadilan. Sehingga menunjukan inkonsistensi pada pandangan bahwa MK bukanlah criminal policy maker. MK sejatinya memang tidak memiliki konsistensi dalam menerapkan jucial activism atau judicial restraint dalam menguji suatu Undang-Undang. Dalam konteks hukum pidana yang berkaitan dengan HAM, seharusnya MK hanya bertindak sebagai negative legislature dan dibatasi pada proses dekriminalisasi. Sehingga MK hanya menerapkan judicial restraint ketika menguji Undang-Undang Pidana.In substantive criminal law, the Constitutional Court (MK) has consistently acted as a negative legislature and not as a criminal policy maker. However, in procedural criminal law, the MK has taken on the role of a criminal policy maker. This article aims to examine the impact of the Constitutional Court’s decisions in judicial reviews on the development of criminal policy in Indonesia and to provide recommendations on how the MK should review criminal law in the future. This research is conducted using a doctrinal method strengthened by a statute and case approach. The findings show that, in substantive criminal law, the MK has only issued decisions for the decriminalization of offenses regulated by law, such as in the judicial review of the article on Defamation of the President and Unpleasant Acts in the Criminal Code (KUHP). However, in procedural criminal law, the MK has acted as a positive legislature, for example, by expanding pre-trial competences through its decisions. The MK has not been consistent in applying either judicial activism or judicial restraint in reviewing laws. In criminal policy, the MK should act as a negative legislature and be limited to decriminalization, as a form of judicial restraint

In the practices, there are criminal court decisions which sentenced corporations. This article aims to comprehensively examine how corporate criminal responsibility is implemented in various court decisions. It is found that aggregation theory, which corporate criminal responsibility is based on the actions of some people in the corporation scope, has been applied in most cases.

Studi komparatif konsep wasathiyyah dalam tafsir Rūḥ al-Ma‘ānī karya Al-Alūsī Dan Al-Taḥrīr wa al-Tanwīr Karya Ibnu ‘Āsyūr
Konsep wasathiyyah merupakan nilai sentral dalam ajaran Islam yang menekankan keseimbangan, keadilan, dan moderasi dalam segala aspek kehidupan, sebagaimana ditegaskan dalam Q.S. al-Baqarah [2]: 143 tentang ummatan wasaṭhan. Di tengah maraknya ekstremisme, dan polarisasi keberagamaan, pengkajian nilai ummatan wasathan menjadi semakin mendesak, tidak hanya secara teologis, tetapi juga sebagai respons atas tantangan sosial umat Islam masa kini.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji penafsiran ayat-ayat yang memuat konsep wasath dalam tafsir Ruhul Ma‘ni karya Al-Alūsī dan Taḥrir wat Tanwir karya Ibnu ‘Āsyūr. Selanjutnya, penelitian ini juga menganalisis perbandingan pandangan keduanya dalam memahami konsep wasath secara mendalam.
Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif, dengan metode komparatif yang berjenis deskriptif analisis dengan Teknik pengumpulan data berupa studi pustaka. Adapun sumber penelitian ini berupa tafsir dari kedua tokoh sebagai rujukan utamanya, dan penelitian lainnya yang mendukung dalam penelitian ini.
Hasil dari penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa konsep wasath yang dibawakan oleh al-Ālūsī dan Ibn ‘Āsyūr memiliki ciri khasnya masing-masing, baik dari sisi isi maupun pendekatan metodologis yang digunakan. Ibn ‘Āsyūr cenderung menyoroti wasathiyyah dalam dimensi proaktif dan progresif, yakni sebagai nilai dinamis yang mendorong keterlibatan aktif umat Islam dalam membimbing peradaban menuju kebenaran dan nilai-nilai universal Islam. Pendekatan Ibn ‘Āsyūr mengandung misi transformasi sosial, yang sangat dipengaruhi oleh konteks zaman ketika dia hidup, yaitu periode pasca kemunduran Daulah ‘Utsmāniyyah dan masa reformasi pemikiran di dunia Islam, khususnya di Tunisia dan Mesir. Sebaliknya, al-Ālūsī lebih menekankan pada aspek praktis wasath dalam kerangka internal umat Islam, khususnya sebagai prinsip penyeimbang dalam menjaga stabilitas pemahaman dan harmoni antar kelompok dalam komunitas Muslim. Salah satu keunikan pendekatan al-Ālūsī adalah penekanannya terhadap pentingnya moderasi dalam kehidupan beragama sesama umat Islam, yang merefleksikan situasi zamannya ketika Kekhalifahan Turki Utsmani masih kuat dan bersifat otoriter. Perbedaan konteks sosial-politik yang melatarbelakangi kehidupan kedua mufasir tersebut turut membentuk arah dan corak penafsiran mereka terhadap konsep wasathiyyah

Diskursus Kriminalisasi Pemidanaan terhadap Pemberi Gratifikasi
This article aims to examine the legal basis to prosecute gratifiers in Indonesian Corruption Justice System. Samin Tan as the giver of gratification to Eni Maulani Saragih had been acquitted by the Corruption Court of Jakarta Decision Number 37/Pid.Sus-TPK/2021/PN.Jkt.Pst on 30th August 2021. Then, the Cassation to Supreme Court had also been rejected by Supreme Court Decision Number 2205 K/Pid.sus/2022 on 9th June, 2022. Hence, Samin Tan stays acquitted. The decision majorly focuses on the “absence” of law which criminalizes gratifiers or gratification givers. Therefore, this article elaborates how similar cases shall be handled in the future. In answering the legal questions, there are crucial notes for KPK and also the court. From the beginning, Eni Maulani Saragih shall be indicted and convicted for bribery, not gratification. By doing so, the prosecution on the giver will not face such difficulties. Besides that, the court also considered that there is no particular article to prosecute gratifier, but briber. Howerver, Article 5 paragraph (1) letter a, letter b, and also article 13 of the Corruption act can also be applied to gratification giver. Article 12B for gratification receiver employes the wording “gratification as bribery”, so that those article may also apply for gratification receiver. This has also been proven in previous cases discussed in the Article
