ABSTRACT
   Premium  Remedium   as a legal principle, with regard to prioritizing the imposition of criminal sanctions,
should not be a form of application of absolute theory but as a form of application of expanded integrative theory
in the aim of punishment as a guarantee of legal protection and certainty for every citizen seeking justice, in
accordance with the mandate of Article 28 D of the 1945 Constitution. The application of the principle of
premium  remedium  in law enforcement for criminal acts of corruption causing losses to state finances, is faced
with positive law which places the function of administrative law as a premium remedium in law enforcement
for acts that are detrimental to state finances, which is a reality of legal antinomy. The issue raised is what legal
principles are the basis for the implementation of the provisions of Law Number 31 of 1999 (UUPTPK)
concerning the Eradication of Premium Remdium Corruption Crimes.
   The  type of research used is normative research, namely research that primarily examines positive legal
provisions, legal principles, legal principles and legal doctrine in order to answer the legal issues faced using a
problem  approach, statutory regulation approach, conceptual approach, philosophical approach. The legal
materials used are primary legal materials and secondary legal materials.
   The  research results show that the functionalization of the Corruption Eradication Law is Premium
Remedium   in law enforcement for offenses involving state financial losses, which is in contradiction with the
Premium  Remedium   nature which  is explicitly normatively attached to administrative law as a means of
resolving state financial losses based on the provisions of Article 14 UUPTPK. The Premium  Remedium
principle attached to the a quo Eradication of Corruption Crimes is based on the principle of retributive justice or
absolute theory which is not commensurate with the aim of expanded integrative punishment as contained in
Law  Number  1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code which has restorative justice as its core.
Key  words: Premium Remedium   Principle, criminal acts of corruption, legal antinomy

A. Introduction
   The term antinomy comes from the Latin antinomia which means anti-nomos or contradiction of norms.
Literally, antinomy means a contradiction between two apparently equally valid principles or between internal
principles correctly drawn from such - a contradiction between two things that appear equally, in a valid
principle-a rule that applies or is simplified means a contradiction within a law itself.1
   Every conflict in legal theory or legal regulation material can be classified as an antinomy. This means that,
theoretically, antinomy is a concept of conflict which is the basis for carrying out an analytical process regarding
the norms and values contained in a legal rule. These pillars of antinomies form the foundation of law to be
proportional and balanced, reducing tensions between one pillar and another.21n our legal system, we often find
antinomies 3 because antinomies are basically the evolution between two  norms  or two  values in one
controversial law.
   In contrast to the meaning of norm conflict, in the context of norm derogation the essence is a conflict
between  two norms which  is based on the conflicting nature of the law contained in a norm, but the two
conflicting norms both have the validity of their application, the jurisdictional consequence of which is that the
