The Criminal Code (KUHP) which currently applies does not recognize corporations as the subject of criminal acts. Therefore, the formulation/legislation policy concerning corporate criminal liability system in Indonesia is only regulated in various specific criminal laws (lex specialis). This research discusses the formulation/legislation policy regarding the corporate criminal liability system in 124 special criminal legislations outside the Criminal Code (KUHP) from 1950-2017. This research used a normative juridical research method as well as interpretation method with a policy-oriented approach. Types and sources of data used were secondary data in the form of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The collected data were then analyzed based on qualitative analysis method. The results of the research showed that the corporate criminal liability system in legal politics in Indonesia (especially in the formulation/legislation policy) still experiences disorientation and disharmonious. Besides, the national law development should follow every development and/or change of society that is developing in the direction of modernization and globalization and should be able to accommodate all society�s needs in various fields. This legal development should be continuously carried out (as a dynamic and an endless process) by "improving (making things better)" and "changing the law to be better and modern".Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP) yang saat ini berlaku tidak mengakui korporasi sebagai subjek tindak pidana.Oleh karenanya, kebijakan formulasi/legislasi mengenai sistem pertanggungjawaban pidana korporasi di Indonesia hanya diatur dalam berbagai peraturan perundang-undangan pidana yang bersifat khusus (lex specialis). Penelitian ini akan membahas mengenai kebijakan formulasi/legislasi mengenai sistem pertanggungjawaban pidana korporasi dalam 124 (seratus dua puluh empat) peraturan perundang-undangan pidana khusus di luar Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP) dari tahun 1950-2017. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif dan metode interpretasi dengan pendekatan yang berorientasi pada kebijakan (policy oriented approach). Jenis dan sumber data yang dipergunakan adalah data sekunder yang berupa bahan hukum primer, bahan hukum sekunder dan bahan hukum tertier. Data yang telah terkumpul akan dianalisis berdasarkan metode analisis secara kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa sistem pertanggungjawaban pidana korporasi dalam politik hukum di Indonesia (khususnya pada kebijakan formulasi/legislasi) masih mengalami disorientasi dan disharmoni. Selain itu, pembangunan hukum nasional harus mengikuti setiap perkembangan dan/atau perubahan masyarakat yang sedang berkembang ke arah modernisasi dan globalisasi serta mampu menampung semua kebutuhan masyarakat di berbagai bidang. Pembangunan hukum seperti ini harus terus-menerus dilakukan (sebagai proses yang dinamis dan proses yang tidak pernah berakhir) dengan cara �menyempurnakan (membuat sesuatu yang lebih baik)� dan �mengubah agar hukum menjadi lebih baik dan modern�.

Considerable efforts have been made to fight corruption, however it continues to occur in Indonesia. In the present time, corruptions do not only carry out by individuals but also by corporations. However, the Criminal Code and Criminal Procedure Code do not recognize and regulate corporations as the subject of criminal acts, so that law enforcement officials, especially prosecutors, have difficulty in charging corporations. This paper tries to answer question about the role of prosecutors in the eradication of corruption by corporation based on The General Attorney Regulation Number: PER-028/A/JA/10/2014 on guidelines for prosecuting corporation. The research method employed is normative juridical method, where the data is analyzed with qualitative methodology. The General Attorney Regulation on Corporate Legal Subjects explains more apparent criteria for actions that can be attributed to the corporation. The regulation combines several theories of corporate criminal liability not only heavily rely on vicarious criminal liability theory. It also provides direction about the separation of corporate liability and director’s liability. With this guideline, the public prosecutors have clearer direction to be able to charge the corporation so that it can restore the state finances that have been harmed by the corruption act.

In Indonesia, the development of the corporation as the subject to criminal acts takes place outside the Criminal Code, regulated in special legislation. While the Criminal Code itself still adheres to the subject of criminal acts in the form of people, the corporation (juridical person) appears as a subject that can commit a crime and should also be accountable in criminal law. However, this condition has not been realized concretely in our Criminal Code. The formulation policy regarding corporate criminal liability for victims of corporate crime that exists or is currently in force has not been able to realize the corporate criminal liability. Although there are sanctions that can be imposed on corporations, most of these provisions only protect potential victims and are not responsible for actual or real victims. In other words, the current formulation policy has not been able to ensnare and impose criminal sanctions on corporations who commit crimes, especially criminal sanctions which are oriented to the fulfillment or restoration of victims' rights in the form of compensation payments after the crime. This paper will discuss the position and the responsibility of the corporation as a subject of criminal law in Indonesia and analyze policy formulation of the Criminal Code and the draft of the Criminal Code that related to corporate responsibility as a legal subject. Keywords: Corporate Criminal Responsibilities, Criminal Law, Corporate Responsibility.

Budi Pego was charged with violating Article 107a of Law Number 27 of 1999 concerning Amendment to the Criminal Law Code relating to crimes against State security, because of. Because of these accusations, Budi Pego was charged with a 10-month prison sentence in the Banyuwangi District Court. The problem faced is how criminal liability on the perpetrators of the spread of the teachings of communism in terms of Article 107A of the Criminal Code (case study of decision No. 559 / Pid.B / 2017 / PN.Byw)? The research method used is normative legal research. The results showed that criminal liability on the perpetrators of the spread of the teachings of communism in terms of Article 107A of the Criminal Code in Decision No. 559 / Pid.B / 2017 / PN.Byw. it is inappropriate if this criminal liability model is applied to criminal liability to individuals. Considering that individual accountability still requires actions and mistakes as a basic element of accountability. That is, without any deeds and mistakes, there is no criminal liability. Regarding the Budi Pego case, the policy of criminalizing the ideology of Communism/Marxism-Leninism was decriminalized. If this cannot be done, then the legislators need to revise Law No. 27 of 1999 with the concept of eliminating articles containing formal offenses and replacing them with the formulation of material offenses and in the formulation of the weight of sanctions.

The regulation of corporate criminal liability in Indonesia's criminal justice system is basically a new and still debatable issue. It is said that because in the Criminal Code is not recognized and regulated explicitly about the corporation as a subject of criminal law. This is a natural thing since the WvS Criminal Code still adheres to the principle of "societas delinquere non potest" or "non-potest university delinquere", that is, a legal entity can not commit a crime. Thus, if in a society there is a criminal offense, then the criminal act is deemed to be done by the board of the corporation concerned. Regarding the corporate criminal responsibility system in Indonesia, in the corruption law Article 20 paragraph (1), if the corporation committed a criminal act of corruption, then those responsible for the criminal act shall be the corporation only, the management only, or the corporation and its management. Thus, it can be said that the regulation of corporate criminal liability in the legal system in Indonesia is expressly only regulated in special criminal legislation, because the Criminal Code of WvS still adheres to the principle of "societas delinquere nonpotest" so it is not possible to enforce corporate criminal liability in it.

The following article aims to analyze the first German draft bill concerning a corporate criminal code. The draft bill, recently introduced by the federal state of Nordrhein-Westfalen, led to a transformation of a theoretical academic discussion towards a specific proposal on potential future legislation. Firstly, the article introduces underlying reasons for the draft based on deficiencies of the current legislation. Current regulations solely provide corporate administrative responsibility for criminal offenses committed by a corporation's management (involving huge fines). Subsequently, the article reviews the content of the draft, specifically the multiplicity of proposed criminal and other penalties. The authors intend to demonstrate that the draft is often too vague or—especially with regard to penalties—simply over the top. The applicable sanctions – which may be combined- would lead to a more draconic punishment than in any other comparable legal system. Furthermore, regarding the principles of due process and strict legality the proposed procedural rules of the draft are not satisfying. After all, the proposed procedural measures to safeguard the proceedings and the rules on representation and defense counsel are deficient.

AbstractThis article is set against the backdrop of the inability of Canadian courts to hear civil cases brought by victims of the operations of Canadian mining corporations in developing countries where accountability mechanisms are weak. The article examines the legal framework for extraterritorial criminal prosecution in Canada with a view to seeing how corporate criminal prosecution could fill the accountability gap and contribute to the promotion of the accountability of Canadian mining corporations involved in human and environmental rights abuses in developing countries. The article argues that extraterritorial criminal prosecution holds prospects for success in Canada, if only the Canadian government is willing to utilize it. The real and substantial link test, the Crimes against Humanity and War Crimes Act, and several sections of the Criminal Code provide sufficient jurisdictional bases for such prosecution. The amendments to the doctrine of corporate criminal liability that were made in Canada in 2003 bolster the criminal jurisdictional strength of Canadian courts. Lastly, there are no compelling international comity concerns to discourage the Canadian government from utilizing the criminal justice process to contribute to the global fight against corporate impunity in human and environmental rights abuses. This article seeks to contribute to the knowledge of the powers at the disposal of the Canadian government to do so.
