Abstract

Corruption eradication requires institutions with strong authority and a high degree of independence within the legal system. Regulatory changes concerning the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) have introduced new dynamics in its institutional structure and functional capacity. This study analyzes the dynamics of the KPK’s institutional authority and functional independence, compares them with international practices, and formulates an ideal direction for institutional strengthening. The research employs a normative juridical approach through a literature review of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, analyzed qualitatively through inventory, classification, comparison, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the revision of Law Number 19 of 2019 has shifted the KPK’s position to the executive branch and constrained its strategic authorities, thereby weakening its functional independence and potentially reducing the effectiveness of corruption eradication. The implications underscore the importance of reconstructing an institutional design that balances independence and accountability to sustain the KPK’s effectiveness within the Indonesian legal system
