Abstract

This study aims at understanding the impact of the social actors’ role in the development of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) administration as a strategy to promote self-reliance of rural areas. Social actors, such as community leaders, village chiefs, and BUMDes managers, play a crucial role in shaping collective understanding, motivation, and human resource capacity at the village level. By employing a qualitative approach with a case study in Blitar Regency, this research reveals how BUMDes administrative practices are influenced by social dynamics and the role of local leadership. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and institutional document analysis. The research findings portray that the role of social actors largely determines the effectiveness of BUMDes administrative governance, especially in building transparency, participation, and accountability. In addition, the involvement of social actors is proven to encourage the growth of community collective awareness on the importance of sustainable self-sufficiency in food provision. This research confirms that the success of BUMDes is not only determined by the institutional structure, but also by the social forces and local cultures built through the active role of social actors.
