Abstract
The prison model as a form of punishment and retribution for acts and perpetrators of crimes has received criticism from some scientists and legal activists. Critical Legal Studies (CLS) personnel criticize the model of punishment by imprisonment because of its positivistic nature. The norm of applying prison law is considered universal without regard to the relativity and particularity of facts which cannot be separated from various social contexts. For this reason, this research examines and considers alternative models of punishment outside prison institutions that accommodate the particularity of facts and cases in order to obtain a model of punishment that is not only retaliatory for the perpetrators of crimes, but also educational in nature while respecting their right to freedom. By using a critical hermeneutic approach combined with CLS, this study concludes that supervision as punishment can be applied as an alternative model of punishment beyond imprisonment that is deemed to be more humane and effective.
