Abstract:
The influence of globalization in all areas of life in today's society is not inevitable and is already being felt as a result almost all countries, especially in developing countries in general. Not only the positive effects arising from the impact of globalization, but also the negative effect is that the increased mobility of people can cause problems related to extra-territorial jurisdiction of a country. Cooperation between countries is needed to facilitate the handling of the investigation, prosecution and examination before the court on an issue that arises in both the Requesting and Requested State. Mechanism of International Law, namely Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters is a mechanism that aims to bridge the requests for legal assistance between countries concerned.Based on Law No. 1 of 2006, has been enough to help the implementation of mutual legal assistance on criminal matters between Indonesia and other countries and vice versa. But admittedly there are some provisions in the legislation that there are still shortcomings that hinder the implementation of both the demand of foreigners to Indonesia, and the Indonesian request to other countries, especially in matters of coordination and the legal system.
Completion of these short- needs to be followed up immediately for the implementation of mutual assistance in the future can be optimized. This thesis finally solved using normative juridical approach.
