Abstract

Because terrorism represents a grave threat to state sovereignty and a crime against civilization, incidents of terror in Indonesia consistently garner attention on both the domestic and international fronts. The war on terrorism has led to the apprehension and defeat of terrorists. However, this does not allow for an immediate cessation of terrorist activities. Instead, it perpetuates a detrimental cycle of violence that fails to confront the root cause of terrorism. As a consequence, various strategies are necessary to assist in the deradicalization of terrorists. A method of empirical juridical inquiry was utilized in this investigation. Even though cooperation is the most crucial factor in administering deradicalization, Indonesia’s program focuses primarily on economics, law enforcement, and religion, according to the study’s findings. Progressive legislation is expected to facilitate a paradigm shift away from the status quo, wherein centrist institutions and individuals will no longer be the primary sources of legal inspiration and guidance. Given the historical correlation between ideology and radicalism, progressive law possesses a malleable quality that renders it compatible with the findings of every scientific discipline.
