Abstract

The restorative justice approach is considered an alternative to handling corruption in Indonesia, but restorative justice in handling corruption cases has not been regulated in the law on eradicating corruption. This study aims to examine restorative justice arrangements and their application in the handling of corruption cases with financial losses below 50 million (small). This research is a normative legal research using a conceptual approach, statutory approach, and comparative approach. In enforcing the law against criminal acts of corruption with a state loss of less than 50 million (small loss) it should take into account the principles of legal expediency, the principles of simple justice, fast, low cost, the principle of eligibility, and the principle of proportionality so that law enforcement does not become in vain, namely by using a restorative justice approach that requires corruptors to return state financial losses.

Keywords: restorative justice, the principle of expediency, corruption, small state financial losses.
