The process of reforming or establishing a law enforcement is carried out through a formulation / legislation policy, whereas law enforcement and institutional enforcement processes are carried out through the application / judicial appeals and criminal proceedings carried out under the exclusion / administration policy. Constraints in the prevention of criminal prosthesis are due to several factors namely legal factors (law), law enforcement factors, community factors and cultural factors. The legal factors relating to the Penal Code are not directly regulated on the prosecution of prostitution as a form of crime.

This article highlights the controversy of revised act of corruption commission (UU KPK) and of the Book of Criminal Law (KUHP) which had heated up. By using legal gap theory, this writing uncovers the legal gap between the contents of revised KUHP and living laws. Consequently, people in the grassroots level seem more enthusiastic about the issue, for example, the fines because livestock entering other people yards than weakening KPK issues that drive a wave of demonstrations at the level of well-educated people. Many studies in the sphere of sociology of law that have conducted gave much attentions to the living law or norm in the mods of society. However there is not much of them which gave attention to the legal gap phenomena, it is the incompatibility between living law and formal one. Whereas, such an approach tend to be considered late if it we aim to put the sociology of law as one discipline of social science which is useful in strengthening the law enforcement. In the hilt of the matter, there is an issue of the legal gap which should have been expressed from the beginning, mainly as to the compatibility between formal and informal law when legislation was going on. By utilizing literature study, the research found that; firstly, the resistance against revised KUHP is the logical consequence of legal gap phenomena that has potential legal conflict. Secondly, there are four major manners could be done to resolve the gap; repression, counseling, reformation and restorative justice.

This thesis investigates how tax law can be used to fight corruption. The taxation procedure is particularly well-suited as a starting point for further criminal proceedings in cases involving corruption in the context of economic crime. However, the collaboration between law enforcement and tax authorities in this field is not without its difficulties, as it involves different areas of the law (tax law, criminal law, criminal tax law) and different types of proceedings (taxation proceedings, criminal investigations), whose interactions result in numerous problems. This work also finds that § 4 sec. 5 sentence 1 No. 10 of the EStG (Germany’s Income Tax Act) is insufficiently considered in practice. After analysing the norm and its various levels of impact (fiscal, general preventive and criminal tax law levels), the author concludes that the current rules have weaknesses that provoke avoidance behaviour among the tax authorities.

This paper analyzes how formulation policy of lobster seeds smuggling regulated in Indonesian law to optimize the effectiveness of illegal fishing enforcement, considering penal policy is the basis of criminal law operationalization. This research uses both statute approach and conceptual approach as legal research methods to analyze the issued legal problem. Fishery law in Indonesia regulated in Law No. 45 of 2009 amending Law No. 31 of 2004 concerning Fishery, especially Articles 88 and 16 paragraph (1) which cover the formulation policy of lobster seeds smuggling enforcement. This study will be analyzed into three aspects which are the conduct (the criminal offense), criminal liability, and sentencing system. The result shows that law enforcement regarding the smuggling of lobster seeds in Indonesia is ineffective due to the nonexistence of corporate criminal liability in the fishery law and its sentencing system is lack of both the specific minimum penalty regulation and the penal measures as criminal punishment. However, the draft of the fishery law has already set corporate criminal liability; hence it also regulates the penal measures, in the form of secondary sanctions. Nevertheless, instead of enacting the specific minimum penalty, the draft only determined the maximum penalty as well. Keywords: Formulation Policy, Fishery Law, Lobster Seeds Smuggling.

Poor regulation quality contributes negatively to the regulation and law enforcement in the life of the state. The indicator of the poor quality of regulation includes, among others, the large number of regulations requested for judicial review and effectiveness of the implementation of regulations. There are several regulatory issues in Indonesia today, including the existence of multiple interpretations; potential conflict; overlap, principle mismatch, weak implementation effectiveness, not harmonious/out of sync; inconsistent; create unnecessary burdens, both on the target group and the affected groups. Base on these regulatory conditions, regulatory reform is very important and urgent. Given this very basic regulatory issue, it is necessary to make improvements in the regulatory field from upstream to downstream which leads to quality, orderly and simple regulations known as regulatory reform. The purpose of the study is to examine regulatory reform in order to support Indonesia's national development. research is done by doing literature research, or commonly known as the literature study. The Study shows that in order for a regulation to be good, it must fulfill several principles, namely: good norm, good process, and good drafting. Regulatory reform implementation is carried out through a) simplification of existing regulations; b) reconceptualization of the procedures for establishing regulations; c) institutional restructuring of regulation formation; and d) strengthening/empowering human resources with integrity. Good quality of democratic political dimension and progressive legal quality are needed to improve the quality of regulation

<p>Law enforcement does not engage in a vaccum space, yet it is related to<br />variables of socio-political condition, mental of the law enforcers, criminal law<br />procedures, law ideology, NGOs, and legal awareness of the society. Moreover,<br />fighting corruption through law enforcement demands collective awareness as<br />stakeholders to actively participate in national efforts to prevent and eradicate<br />corruption. Measures taken on the prevention must be built in socio-political climate<br />and national collective culture which enforce zero tolerance to any forms of corruption, including bribery, gratification, trading influence, illicit enrichment, corporate corruption, political corruption, collusion, and nepotism.</p>

In 2001, a new penal code was adopted in Ukraine after a comprehensive discussion in politics, legal science and society, replacing a codification of the Soviet era dating back to 1960, obviously unsuitable for the new realities. The new penal code of 2001 has been changed many times since then. This also applies to the criminal law provisions against corruption, evaluated and commended by GRECO. However, there is criticism of the criminal law system in Ukraine. A large number of the issues have little or nothing to do with the text of the penal code itself, but with deficits in the application of the law and the resulting loss of confidence in the activities of the law enforcement authorities. The judiciary is said to have a significant corruption problem and is significantly overloaded. The latter is to be counteracted by the introduction of the class of misdemeanor (“kryminalnyj prostupok”) in 2019 that can be investigated in a simplified procedure, which has been criticized, inter alia, because it bears the risk of the loss of quality and possibly infringes procedural rights. Also in 2019, the work on a once again completely new codification of the penal code was commenced, which is not entirely surprising in view to the existing criticism of manual errors or inadequacies of the recent code. It is to be hoped that Ukraine, with the existing will and the necessary strength, will succeed in the creation of a criminal law system that is fully in compliance with the rule of law and that a penal code will be drafted that finally finds full recognition in the society.

Germany, which con-cerns the restrictions imposed on police offi cers who work on cases involving terror and violence posing a risk to human life, and on the ones who have to make decisions protecting victims’ lives. The choice of measures serving the protection of the highest value, i.e. human life, is not easy. At the same time, police offi cers are assessed in terms of criminal law as regards the protection of the basic human rights enjoyed by perpetrators who pose a risk to other people’s lives. The case of Gäfgen v. Germany regards the choice of values, and the criminal liability of police offi cers, connected with thereof, as well as the problem of the admissibility of evidence obtained in breach of the law in criminal proceedings, and the limitations of the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine.
