dc.description.abstract | The form of corporate crime is not only in the field of environment pollution, deceive
of consummer, unfair trade practices, etc, but also in the field of politics. In this field,
it is usually for economic advantage through the campaign fund contributed to the
party. In USA, Watergate scandal, for example, showed the corporate involvement in
the general ellections arena, so in 1971 the USA government legislated a new
regulation limiting the sum of corporate contribution to political party. Indonesia, in
the face of general election 2009, has anticipated it by Act Number 10 Year 2008.
However, if we pay close attention to the penal policy as regulated in Article 276
which just regulates imprisonment and fine, while the additional punishment is not
regulated in that statute.It is worried that the statute will not be efective to prevent the
corporation’s violation of the constribution limit tolerated by the statute. Besides, no
article regulates the corporation as legal subject. The weakness of the formulation
policy will influence the interaction perpetuation which benefits each-other between
the contributor and receiver of contribution. As a consequence, it is difficult to
prevent the conspirative connection for each elite group interest. | en_US |
