Indonesia's criminal law system faces major challenges. Despite the
country's transition to democracy, both the Criminal Code and the
Criminal Procedure Code are badly out of date, the former only
superficially changed since colonial times and the latter remaining
as it was under Soeharto's authoritarian New Order regime. Law
enforcement officers and judges are widely seen as corrupt or
incompetent, and new laws, including new Islamic laws passed at the
regional level, often contradict the Criminal Code and national
statutes, including human rights laws. This book, based on
extensive original research by leading scholars in the field,
provides an overall assessment of the state of criminal law, law
enforcement and penal policy in Indonesia, considers in depth a
wide range of specific areas of criminal law, and discusses recent
efforts at reform and their prospects for success.
