The criteria for determining the goals-tasks that are adequate to the public goals of the system are justified. Quantitative indicators corresponding to the criteria were developed, based on the contribution of the criminal justice System to reducing the socio-economic losses of society from recidivism.

The author, former legal director of an organization conducting a national program of test litigation in the correctional area, describes a variety of cases that have led him to take a pessimistic view of the future of correction. He states that (1) a defendant cannot put much faith in a criminal justice system which makes his pretrial freedom dependent on the amount of money he has; (2) considering the lack of resources provided for those in jail but presumably innocent pending trial, one can expect little in the way of correctional resources for convicts; (3) longstanding prison abuses are still widespread; (4) judges and administrators ignore the failures of experimental programs in order that they may continue to require inmates to participate in them; and (5) the correctional process is perhaps most dangerous when it justifies itself as acting in the defendant's best interests. In conclusion, the author suggests that correctional personnel should play a more active role in exposing negative aspects of imprisonment to the public.

Abstract The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has become a super institution with extraordinary restraint. With the new Corruption Eradication Commission Law, some people think that the KPK has been weakened, which has been an institution loved by the public, even though the government denies that the new KPK Law has not weakened the KPK at all. One of the new things is the formation of the KPK Supervisory Body, one of which has the authority to grant permission to the KPK to conduct searches, which in fact has an impact on the problems at hand. The method used is a normative legal research method. The approach used is a statutory approach. The data used are secondary data obtained by literature study and primary data obtained by conducting interviews with related party respondents. There has been a shift in the meaning of Barriers to Justice as stated in Article 221 of the Criminal Code with Article 221 of the Corruption Eradication Law where Article 221 of the Criminal Code views Obstruction of Justice as a material offense while for Article 21 of the Corruption Eradication Law, Judicial Obstruction is seen as a formal offense. On the other hand, the actions of the Supervisory Board in granting licenses for searches, confiscation, etc. are not automatically considered a disturbance of justice unless it can be proven that the elements of wrongdoing committed by the Supervisory Board can be proven.   Keywords : Corruption, Authority, Obstruction Of Justice.   ABSTRAK Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK) telah menjadi lembaga super dengan pengekangan yang luar biasa. Dengan adanya Undang-Undang KPK yang baru, sebagian orang menilai telah terjadi pelemahan KPK yang selama ini menjadi institusi yang dicintai masyarakat, padahal pemerintah membantah bahwa Undang-Undang KPK yang baru sama sekali tidak melemahkan KPK. Salah satu hal baru yaitu adalah pembentukan Badan Pengawas KPK yang salah satunya memiliki kewenangan untuk memberikan izin kepada KPK untuk melakukan penggeledahan, yang ternyata berdampak pada permasalahan yang sedang dihadapi. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian hukum normatif. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah pendekatan statutori. Data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder yang diperoleh dengan studi pustaka dan data primer diperoleh dengan melakukan wawancara dengan responden pihak terkait. Telah terjadi pergeseran makna Hambatan Keadilan sebagaimana tertuang dalam Pasal 221 KUHP dengan Pasal 221 Undang-Undang Pemberantasan Korupsi dimana Pasal 221 KUHP memandang Obstruksi Keadilan sebagai delik material sedangkan untuk Pasal 21 Undang-Undang Pemberantasan Korupsi, Obstruksi Peradilan dipandang sebagai delik formal. Di sisi lain, tindakan Dewan Pengawas dalam pemberian izin penggeledahan, penyitaan, dan lain-lain tidak serta merta dianggap sebagai gangguan keadilan kecuali dapat dibuktikan bahwa unsur-unsur perbuatan salah yang dilakukan Dewan Pengawas dapat dibuktikan. Kata Kunci: Korupsi, Otoritas, Obstruksi Keadilan.

The article considers the reason, adequate cause, justifying exemption from criminal responsibility. In the criminal law literature there are numerous decisions on this issue, but their main body alone can not explain why a person is exempted from criminal responsibility. The author concludes that the basis for such liberation must be sought in the personality of the culprit. Under current criminal legislation, justifying the exemption from criminal responsibility can only be elimination or significant reduction in the public danger of the person who committed the crime. In the future, it is necessary to formulate the relevant provisions of the criminal law so that the basis for this exemption is only elimination of the public danger caused by the individual. Accordingly, Art. 76. 2 and part 1 of Art. 90 are subject to exclusion from the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and, on the contrary, inclusion in the chapter on the exemption from criminal responsibility of the relevant provisions of Art. 80.1 and part 1 of Art. 81 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
