<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of corporate criminal liability for major corruption crimes based on Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (New Criminal Code). Using the normative juridical method, this study examines the change in the criminal law paradigm from an individualistic orientation to the recognition of corporations as independent criminal law subjects. The results of the study show that the new Criminal Code provides a comprehensive legal basis for the application of the principle of corporate criminal liability, through explicit provisions in Articles 45-51 that affirm the form of offense, the mechanism of proof, and the type of criminal sanctions against corporations. Additional crimes such as freezing business activities, dissolving corporations, and state supervision are considered more efficient in encouraging institutional reform than fines alone. However, the effectiveness of implementing this norm is still faced with institutional challenges, limited law enforcement capacity, and the need for uniform prosecution guidelines. Conceptually, the new Criminal Code marks the transformation of national criminal law towards a system that emphasizes a balance between substantive justice, legal certainty, and social benefit. Consistent, proportionate, and evidence-based law enforcement is the key to the realization of the rule of law against corporate entities in Indonesia.]]>
