Abstract

The principle of legality in criminal law reform has expanded. Initially, the principle of legality only laid down positive law as the basis for punishing someone, and now it is supplemented by living law. This article will analyze the existence of living law in criminal law reform. This article was written using normative legal research methods with a statutory approach. The result of this research is that the recognition of living law in Article 2 of the New Criminal Code creates challenges and opportunities for the Indonesian criminal law system. This integration supports restorative justice and reflects the country's cultural diversity, but also requires careful handling of legal certainty and the principle of legality. There is a need for an appropriate resolution mechanism to accommodate the application of living law in criminal law, so that legal inequality does not occur.
