Abstract

Corruption is a form of crime that is considered a plague or disease, not only in the national sphere, but also in the international or inter-state sphere. United Nations Convention Against Corruption is a form of active participation of world countries in combating corruption. In Article 18 of UNCAC there is a regulation concerning trading in influence which has not yet been formulated or accommodated in positive law in Indonesia. Though seeing cases of corruption that often occur in Indonesia, the act of trading influence can already be found in Indonesia. This type of research is research with academic goals that are expected to give birth to an academic work. The method used is normative and its specifications are prescriptive, where with the existence of this research, it can produce arguments which can then be useful for building new mindsets and giving a positive thing. The results of this study give rise to arguments based on the facts that Indonesia indeed needs to accommodate the offense of trading the influence as stipulated in Article 18 of UNCAC into positive law in Indonesia.
