Review

This paper, titled "PENGATURAN KONSEP LEMBAGA PLEA BARGAINING DALAM PEMBAHARUAN KITAB UNDANG-UNDANG HUKUM ACARA PIDANA (KUHAP)," undertakes a critical examination of the plea bargaining concept within the context of reforming Indonesia's Criminal Procedure Code. Utilizing a normative legal research approach, the study aims to elucidate the fundamental ideas behind plea bargaining, analyze its conceptual regulation in various countries, and assess its urgency for integration into the updated KUHAP. The abstract clearly outlines the paper's scope and methodology, effectively setting the stage for a comprehensive analysis of a highly relevant topic in contemporary legal reform discourse. The research's findings, as presented in the abstract, articulate a clear rationale for plea bargaining, highlighting its potential to alleviate the burden on the criminal justice system, reinforce the prosecutor's role (dominus litis), and offer advantages to defendants, victims, and law enforcement agencies alike. A comparative analysis of plea bargaining across the United States, Canada, India, and Indonesia is noted, revealing differences in regulatory approaches. Crucially, the abstract concludes that plea bargaining, with its promise of simplified and efficient judicial processes through out-of-court negotiations, aligns with the urgency of KUHAP reform, supported by philosophical, sociological, juridical, and political legal considerations. While the abstract states that differences were found in the comparative analysis, further detail on the *nature* of these differences and their specific implications for the Indonesian context would strengthen the full paper. Overall, this paper addresses a pertinent and pressing issue in Indonesian legal development, offering valuable insights into the theoretical underpinnings and practical implications of introducing plea bargaining. Its comprehensive approach, covering foundational concepts, international comparisons, and local urgency, makes it a significant contribution to the literature on criminal procedure reform. The detailed identification of philosophical, sociological, juridical, and political legal justifications for integrating plea bargaining into the KUHAP provides a robust framework for policymakers and legal scholars. This work is highly relevant for those engaged in modernizing criminal justice systems and merits publication for its timely and insightful analysis.
