Characteristics of Corporate Crime in Indonesia through Organizational Structure and Third Party Facilitation
Abstract
Corporate crime in general is a new thing that becomes a topic of discussion even in contemporary times. This is due to the fact that criminal law generally only regulates/recognizes individual crimes. This causes many legal loopholes that are used by corporations to commit crimes, for example through corporate structures and facilitation of third parties (panama papers). The purpose of this study is to look at the concept of corporate crime and the interrelationships of the characteristics of corporate crime through the use of third party structures and facilitation. In this research, mainly using normative research methods with a conceptual approach. The results of the study show that corporate crime begins with the premise of John Locke that every unlawful act is a crime (crime. Even though at first this concept only aimed at individuals, with the development of the times this concept shifted to corporate criminal responsibility. In addition, if you look at the characteristics through the company's structure and facilitation, it shows that there are top and bottom management managerial efforts to commit corporate crimes by utilizing third parties, for example, Panama Papers which involve many companies owned by state officials.
