Abstract

Access to justice is a fundamental right often compromised by corruption, especially for marginalized communities in Indonesia. This paper investigates how corrupt practices within the judicial and law enforcement systems impede equitable access to justice. Drawing on case studies, interviews with affected communities, and legal analysis, the study exposes barriers such as bribery, biased adjudication, and procedural delays that disproportionately disadvantage vulnerable groups. The research underscores the intersectionality of corruption, social exclusion, and legal inequality, advocating for reforms that enhance transparency, legal aid, and community empowerment. By linking corruption to justice access, the paper enriches the scholarly debate on social justice and governance in developing democracies.
