Abstract

Corruption in Indonesia is a serious problem that has long hampered development and undermined public trust in the government. Although the penal approach, including prison sentences for perpetrators of corruption, has been applied for many years, significant results in reducing the level of corruption have not been achieved. This background encourages research to look for alternative solutions, namely the non-penal approach in handling corruption crimes with a loss value below 50 million rupiah. The formulation of the problem in this research is whether the non-penal approach can be effective in reducing the level of corruption and how this policy can be integrated with the existing legal system in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative method by analyzing various non-penal programs and reviewing related literature and policies to understand the implementation and effectiveness of these approaches. The results show that the non-penal approach, which focuses on prevention, rehabilitation, and reintegration of offenders, offers various benefits such as reducing the burden on the criminal justice system and correctional institutions, as well as increasing awareness and education on integrity and ethics. However, this approach also faces legal and policy challenges. Therefore, this study suggests the development of clear regulations, training for law enforcement, collaboration between sectors, public campaigns to change perceptions, and proper allocation of resources to ensure the successful implementation of non-penal policies.
