Abstract: Corruption has always been a disease for a republic, including Indonesia. The attention of the Indonesian government to resolve criminal acts of corruption has started since Indonesia's independence. Regulations regarding criminal acts of corruption start from the Criminal Code (lex generalis) to the Law. No. 31 of 1999 concerning the Eradication of Corruption (lex specialis). The fight against corruption advanced even further with the creation of a special commission through legislation No. 30 of 2002 concerning the Corruption Eradication Commission. However, in reality it has not been able to solve the problem of corruption. A new approach to solving corruption needs to be proposed. Economic Analysis of Law (EAL) sees that the settlement of corruption is not merely a moral issue that stops at right and wrong, far from that, EAL looks at the beneficial impact of solving corruption (cost and benefit ratio). This paper seeks to use microeconomic analysis to criticize the law enforcement of criminal acts of corruption, especially in the settlement of criminal acts of corruption through the Tipikor Law and efforts to provide solutions to the settlement of criminal acts of corruption through the EAL approach.
