    abstract = {One of the things which damage social system
is the existence of recurrent criminals or called as
recidivist. These criminals usually repeat the same crimes,
even though they have been imprisoned. Countermeasure
of recidivist crime is carried out in the criminal justice
system which is an vehicle in the society to cope with
crimes. It is required, therefore, a right process of
rehabilitation to prevent the recurrence of criminal act.
This research is analytical descriptive, tool of data
collection in this research is by conducting interviews
(field research) and library research. Data analysis used in
this research is qualitative analysis. The causal factor of
criminal act committed by recidivist in Indonesian system
of criminal law is because of social stigmatization and
environmental condition of social institution. The
stigmatization comes from social anxiety against former
convicts, that their wrongdoings will influence other
people to do acts which violate the law. Other cause is the
effect of prisonization or deviation in the prison
community resulted from destructive power in the life of
prison residents. The form of recidivist rehabilitation in
Madaeng prison is carried out by two ways, those are
individual and group rehabilitation.}
