Abstract

This study aims to analyze the motives behind infant abandonment in Kupang City from a criminological perspective and to examine the efforts undertaken to address the issue. The research employed an empirical legal method with criminological, sociological, and restorative approaches. Data were collected through interviews and observations involving four respondents and were analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that infant abandonment is influenced by three major factors: psychological, social, and family environmental factors. Psychological factors include fear, panic, stress, depression, and emotional pressure resulting from unwanted pregnancies. Social factors involve promiscuity and strong social stigma toward out-of-wedlock pregnancies, which encourage offenders to take extreme actions. Family environmental factors include strict parenting patterns, lack of communication, and inadequate parental supervision. Efforts to address infant abandonment are carried out through pre-emptive, preventive, and repressive measures. However, these efforts have not been fully effective due to the limited involvement of families, communities, and relevant institutions in preventing and handling such cases. The study emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to reducing infant abandonment and protecting vulnerable women and children.
