<![CDATA[Corruption is an extraordinary crime that causes great harm to the country's finances and threatens social justice and national economic stability. The urgency of this study lies in the search for effective strategies to cause a deterrent effect against corruption perpetrators who have been considered still weak. This study aims to analyze the concept of asset seizure as an instrument of impoverishment of corruptors in order to strengthen the effectiveness of law enforcement and recovery of State losses. The research method used is juridical normative, with an analytical approach to legislation, legal doctrine, and relevant academic literature. The Data was collected through a literature study of primary legal materials (such as the corruption law and the TPPU law) and secondary legal materials in the form of research results and views of criminal law experts. The application of asset confiscation has a strategic role in returning state losses and impoverishing corruption perpetrators so that they no longer enjoy the results of their crimes. However, its effectiveness is still hampered by the absence of the Non-Conviction Based (NCB) asset seizure law and weak coordination between law enforcement agencies. The concept of impoverishment of corruptors through asset expropriation also has a philosophical basis in retributive justice theory and deterrence theory, which emphasize deterrent effects through the removal of economic gains from criminal acts. Asset seizure as an additional crime needs to be regulated more comprehensively in special regulations so that it can be applied consistently and transparently. Legal reform, increased inter-institutional coordination, and accelerated ratification of the asset seizure law are important steps in strengthening the eradication of corruption in Indonesia.]]>
