Abstract

Deradicalization is a popular term in countering terrorism. The current de-radicalization program has not been effective since most of the terrorists are recidivists. Some factors inhibit the deradicalization program including the absence of clear regulations (blue print) related to the deradicalization program, inadequate human resources and infrastructure. This normative legal research was done using a statute approach, a case approach, and a conceptual approach. Secondary data that consisted of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials were analyzed using qualitative normative analysis method. The results showed that the application of the concept of deradicalization to perpetrators of criminal acts of terrorism in Indonesia after the issuance of Presidential Decree number 46 of 2010 concerning the National Agency for Combating Crime of Terrorism has been conducted. However, this program has not resolved the root problem that is to lower the rate of radicalism. Radicalism needs to be eradicated because radical movements and thoughts of individuals and groups often lead to radical activities, such as violence, war and terror. Deradicalization program against perpetrators of criminal acts of terrorism in Indonesia has to be seriously implemented regarding the fact that criminal acts of terrorism are getting rampant through false religious teachings.
