The enactment of Indonesian Youth Criminal justice System Law in mid-2014, which invalidates the 1997 Youth Court Law, became a significant point ofyouth criminal justice reformation in Indonesia. The new Law began to shift the retributive paradigm in the Youth Court Law, as the previous statutory basis foryouth criminal justice in Indonesia, to restorative justice paradigm. The new Law introduces the Diversion mechanism as a means to implement the restorative justice approach. This article seeks to discuss how restorative justice can be contextualized through diversion mechanism, as well as to consider whether the new Indonesian youth criminal justice system utilises restorative justice in a marginalized, boutique, or tokenistic way. Furthermore, this article uses statutory and theoretical approaches to examine the contextualization of restorative justice through the diversion mechanism introduced in the new Youth CriminalJustice System Law.
