INTRODUCTION Punishment is a general term used in all types of sanctions in the form of civil, criminal, administrative and disciplinary law. Lemaire is that criminal law consists of norms that contain obligations/obligations as well as prohibitions . ormed in law. that have been associated with sanctions, namely in the form of punishment. "Thus it can also be said, that criminal law is a system of norms that determine which actions . y doing something or not doing something where there is a necessity to do somethin. and in what circumstances the punishment can be imposed, as well as what punishment can be imposed for these actions. Which in this country has been regulated in Law Number 8 of 1981 or what is referred to as the Criminal Procedure Code. Countermeasures are efforts implemented to prevent, deal with, or overcome a situation including preventive activities and at the same time trying to improve the behavior of someone who Journal homepage: https://ejournal. id/index. php/relae A ISSN: 2085-7233 (Prin. , 2986-3988 (Onlin. has been found guilty . s a convic. in a correctional institution, in other words efforts to tackle theft can be carried out preventively and repressively. feit itself in Dutch means a part of a fact or een gedelte van de werkelijkheid, while strafbaar means punishable so that literally the word strafbaar feit can be translated as a part of a fact which can be punished, which is of course inappropriate, by because later we will know that what can be punished is actually a human being as a person and not the reality of deeds or actions. Criminology is a science that studies or discusses crime from various aspects. Crime is also referred to as a social phenomenon that is more influenced by various aspects of life in society such as economics, politics, socio-culture and other matters related to efforts to defend and secure the State. Because criminal law itself is essentially only focused on efforts to resolve criminal acts that have occurred and not on knowledge of how criminal acts occur in prevention. Elements of criminal acts . riminal ac. which includes actions and unlawful nature of the act. The Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) defines a crime known as strafbaarfeit and delik which is also often used as a term for criminal law in the literature. While a formulation in the law, the making of the law uses the term criminal incident, criminal act or criminal act. The definition of criminal acts in our daily behavior is influenced by many norms that are not listed in the law, which are sometimes not recognized by law and are not even disclosed, only some of the norms that regulate human behavior are legal norms, namely those that are established by The law is included in the provisions of the law and is applied by the judge in disputes. Legislators are determined to make a norm of behavior a legal norm in whole or in part, so what is often contained in the intent is, among other things, to provide "protection" to the public interest related to that norm, and of course that protection cannot be absolute. but it can be hoped that the determination of the punishment will help the fulfillment of these norms. The criminal law used by foreign experts uses the term criminal act or criminal act or criminal act with the terms: a. Strafbaar handlung is a criminal act in translation used by German Criminal Law scholars c. The Criminal Act is a Strafbaarfeit criminal act which in Dutch is called delik, consisting of three words, namely straf, baar and feit. Straf means law and criminal b. Feit means events, deeds, violations and actions (Ilyas, 2012, p. 18 Meanwhile, according to Jonkers, strafbaarfeit is formulated as a criminal incident which can be interpreted as an unlawful act . related to a person who can be held accountable for the gaps or mistakes he has . From the explanation above, it can be understood that a crime is a translation of Strafaarfeit, even though there are many other terms In criminal law, use in solving crimes is only "treating symptoms" or called kurieren am sympton but not like factors that use methods to eliminate the cause of the crime. Criminal sanctions are imposed solely as a tool to eradicate a disease caused by symptoms and not a drug to eradicate the cause of the disease. Based on practice from the point of view, the author believes that criminal law cannot prevent a crime that occurs due to the enforcement of such criminal law. There are many theories circulating to solve a problem that exist in many types of fields of science, so that in the end the theory will be left behind due to the continuous development of problems. Crime will not go away on its own, on the contrary crime cases are becoming more frequent and the most dominant type of crime is property crime, especially what includes the crime of theft.
