Abstract

The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) as an independent state institution exists to support and break through the status quo of corruption eradication policies which are in fact ineffectively implemented under the power of conventional institutions (the Prosecutor's Office and the police). However, after the 2019 KPK Law was passed, the institutional construction of the KPK as an independent state institution actually contradicted the conceptualization and theory of independent state institutions. The theory of independent state institutions constructs that the institutional structure must be independent of other branches of state power. Problem focus: The concept of the new separation of power and its contextualization with the KPK institution.  This research uses a type of normative research with statutory, conceptual and comparative approaches. This research found that (1) the new separation of power concept focuses on the latest form of modern separation of power ideology which is no longer limited to the separation of three functions as desired by Montesquieu, (2) the Corruption Eradication Committee (KPK) is an independent institution that does not belong to any group
