Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic and the digitalization of the world prompted the birth of the idea of "Great Reset" as a reflection of building a more just, sustainable, and resilient economic and social system based on law. A great reset requires a new social contract instrument that puts justice and human dignity at its base. However, the many reductions in penalties for corruptors through Supreme Court decisions and corruption investigations can be stopped after the return of state financial losses based on the Kabareskrim Telegram Letter Number: STR/206/VII/2016, July 252016, is an irony. At this culmination, the law, which is increasingly friendly to corrupt behavior, is not in line with the spirit of greet reset. Klaus Schwab believes that pandemics and digitization will eventually become two valves that force the law to adapt to create instruments that are not friendly to corruptors.
