The purpose of this death penalty provision includes giving broader consideration for judges in giving decisions as not arbitrary towards the convicted; give more attention to the objectives of the punishment. Additionally, the provision advocates the death penalty as a last resort in protecting the community, as the judges shall look for other punishment as an alternative to the death penalty.  The Draft of the Criminal Code bases on Neo-Classical school of thought, which maintains a balance between objective factors (actions/outward) and subjective factors (people/ inner/inner attitudes).

The death penalty is one of old criminal type as the age of human life, and the most controversial crime in of all criminal systems, both in countries that adhere to the Common Law System and in countries that embrace Civil Law, Islamic Law and Socialist Law. There are two main thoughts about the death penalty, namely: first, those who want to keep it based on the force provisions, and second are those who wish to the abolition as a whole. Indonesia includes a country that still maintains capital punishment in a positive legal system. This paper aims to resolve problems of the death penalty concept concerning the controversy purpose of the death penalty and to analyze the regulations, procedures and philosophies regarding the death penalty in Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and China. This paper uses normative juridical research and the methods based on the doctrine and developed by the author. The approach used the legal approach, historical approach and comparative approach, then analyzed by the customary method.The result of the study shows that the death penalty can be seen from the philosophical aspects of Indonesian criminal law, as well as the philosophical aspects of Islamic and Chinese criminal law. So that everything can not be separated from the essential legal objectives, namely for the creation of justice. Death penalty in Islamic law turns out the concept of restorative justice specifically for the crime of deliberate killing (al-qatl al-'amd), which the execution highly depends on the victim’s family. The victim’s family, in this case, has the right to choose whether qisas (death penalty) or their apologize for the murder suspect, and diyat payment. While China in the implementation of death penalty applies the concept of rehabilitation, which in the execution of the death penalty is called a death penalty delay for two years and in its implementation, the defendant is given a job and control them. Whereas in Indonesia, capital punishment is a specific criminal offence and threatened with alternatives and is still a draft Criminal Code.

Hukum pidana adat terdapat kaedah-kaedah yang mencerminkan nilai-niIai moral yang tinggi yang berlaku secara universal bagi seluruh masyarakat di Indonesia. Dengan demikian dapatlah disimpulkan bahwa hukum pidana adat telah mencerminkan nikai-nilai dalam pendekatan hukum progresif. Oleh karena itu, hukum pidana adat adalah mutlak perlu mendapatkan tempat bagi pembentukan KUHP Nasional di masa yang akan datang sebagai salah satu upaya pembaharuan hukum. Namun kiranya perlu dipertimbangkan bahwa didalam memberikan tempat kepada hukum pidana adat bagi pembentukan KUHP Nasional tersebut hendaknya dicari kaedah-kaedah yang hanya berlaku secara universal bagi seluruh masyarakat. Kaedah-kaedah tersebut kemudian dikodifikasikan dalam KUHP Nasional, sehingga ia akan menjadi kaedah-kaedah KUHP Nasional semata-mata, bukan sebagai kaedah hukum pidana adat lagi. Dalam hal ini berarti bahwa kedudukan hukum pidana adat telah digantikan hukum pidana nasional, namun yang tetap dijiwai perasaan hukum yang hidup didalam seluruh masyarakat di Indonesia. Adapun konsep transplatasi sanksi bagi pelanggar hukum pidana setempat, sebaiknya pengadilan memilih menjatukan tindakan (maatregel) yang dipertimbangkan dapat memberikan beban bagi si pelanggar, namun sebaliknya dapat memberikan manfaat langsung bagi rnasyankat setempat. Hal ini bertujuan mengembalikan keseimbangan yang ada didalam masyarakat yang bersangkutan. Hal yang kiranya perlu mendapat perhatian didalam menjatuhkan sanksi kepada si pelanggar hukum pidana setempat adalah : 1. Beratnya sanksi yang berupa tindakan tersebut disesuaikan berat ringannya pelanggaran yang dilakukan. 2. Beratnya sanksi juga disesuaikan dengan tingkat kemampuan si pelanggar yaitu sejauh mana ia dapat melaksanakan sanksi itu. 3. Apabila pelanggaran hukum pidana adat setempat tersebut ternyata terdapat pidananya didalam KUHP NasionaI, maka yang barus dipergunakan banyalah kaedah dan sanksi yang dirumuskan didalam KUHP Nasional. Customary criminal law has methods that reflect high moral values that apply universally to all people in Indonesia. Thus it can be concluded that customary criminal law reflects values in a progressive legal approach. Therefore, customary criminal law is absolutely necessary to get a place for the formation of the National Criminal Code in the future as an effort to reform the law. However, it is important to consider that in providing a place for customary criminal law for the establishment of the National Penal Code, methods should be sought that are universally applicable to all people. These methods are then codified in the National Criminal Code, so that they will become the National Criminal Code solely, not as a customary criminal law method anymore. In this case it means that the position of customary criminal law has been replaced by national criminal law, but that is still imbued with a feeling of law that lives in all people in Indonesia. As for the concept of transplanting sanctions for local criminal law offenders, the court should choose to unite actions (maatregel) which are considered to be a burden on the offender, but instead can provide direct benefits to the local community. This aims to restore the existing balance in the community concerned. Things that need attention in imposing sanctions on local criminal offenders are: 1. The severity of sanctions in the form of such actions is adjusted for the severity of the violations committed. 2. The severity of the sanction is also adjusted to the level of the offender's ability, namely the extent to which he can implement the sanction. 3. If the violation of the local customary criminal law turns out to have a criminal offense in the National Criminal Code, then only a number of methods and sanctions should be used which are formulated in the National Criminal Code.

Progressive law puts forward the sociology of law rather than legal certainty which is the focus of legal positivism. In Indonesia, this law was coined by Satjipto Rahardjo. This study aims to determine the formulation of progressive law in future criminal law, and to determine the actualization of the concept of progressive law in regulating corruption in Indonesia. The research method used is a normative legal research method with statute and conceptual approaches. The technique of collecting legal materials in this study is a descriptive method that aims to obtain the meaning of reality related to the problems to be discussed and solved in this study. The results show that in the current Criminal Code Bill, progressive law has been regulated, to be precise in Article 2 paragraph (1) and (2). Progressive law is also regulated in Law no. 48 of 2009 concerning Judicial Power. Then, the actualization of progressive law in regulating corruption in Indonesia is a judge with the powers that take into account the sociological context of society in making decisions. Judges, prosecutors and lawyers can certainly discuss together in eradicating corruption. Efforts are also being made to reconstruct and redefine the power of law enforcement. This arrangement can also encourage the KPK to be more progressive in eradicating corruption, as well as building law enforcers who have morality so that they can become role models and increase public participation, for example by forming NGOs in preventing or fighting corruption in various agencies.

The purpose of this research is to determine the constitutional complaint mechanism based on comparisons in other countries, practices, and adaptation of constitutional complaints under the authority of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia. Many cases with constitutional complaint substance have been submitted to the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia even though they don’t have this authority. This research uses a normative legal research method using a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, a comparative approach, and a case approach. This research indicates that the constitutional complaint mechanism in Germany, South Korea, and South Africa has been well implemented. In practice, cases with constitutional complaint substance are filed to the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia by changing the form by using the legal means of a judicial review, such as case number 16/PUU-VI/ 2008, case number 140/PUU-XIII/2015 and case number 102/PUU-VII/2009. Due to the consideration of the structure, substance, and culture of law, adaptation of constitutional complaint within the authority of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia needs to be carried out by amending Law Number 24 of 2003 jo. Law Number 7 of 2020 concerning the Constitutional Court.
