Abstract

This research examines the transformation of constitutional law following the Constitutional Court's ruling on the elimination of the presidential threshold in Indonesian presidential elections. This ruling represents a fundamental shift in constitutional design, particularly regarding the presidential nomination mechanism and the dynamics of the party system. The research employs a normative juridical method, drawing on legislation, court decisions, and legal doctrine. The analysis focuses on the reconstruction of presidential nomination norms, their implications for strengthening the principle of popular sovereignty, and the consequences for the configuration of government in a multiparty system. The results indicate that the elimination of the presidential nomination threshold broadens the space for political participation, improves the quality of electoral democracy, and reinforces the people's position as holders of supreme sovereignty. However, this situation also creates the potential for political fragmentation and challenges in maintaining government effectiveness. The transformation of constitutional law stemming from this ruling emphasizes the need for the formulation of further regulations capable of maintaining a balance between political openness and government stability.

Abstract

Indonesia's post reform electoral system was designed to strengthen popular representation but has paradoxically become an arena for elite interest contestation. This study critically analyzes the ambivalence of legal politics regarding the open proportional system and electoral thresholds, focusing on Constitutional Court Decision No. 55/PUU-XXII/2024. Employing doctrinal legal research with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, the analysis examines Law Number 7 of 2017 and the Court's jurisprudence. The findings reveal a structural paradox: the system normatively recognizes popular sovereignty but practically restricts political competition through high thresholds that benefit political cartels and incentivize high cost politics. Furthermore, the Constitutional Court’s open legal policy doctrine frequently metamorphoses into a shield for the legislative oligarchy, evading substantive constitutional correction. Ultimately, this article proposes a comprehensive reconstruction of electoral legal politics, shifting the paradigm from democratic containment to electoral justice. This reconstruction demands normative threshold reforms, structural political funding improvements, and the application of strict scrutiny by the Constitutional Court to safeguard citizens' rights against oligarchic capture, ensuring genuine constitutional democracy and equitable political participation.

Abstract

Low legal literacy in rural communities often hinders the effective implementation of legislation at the local level, potentially triggering disputes and reducing public compliance. This community service activity aims to enhance legal awareness among residents of Wantilan Village as a strategic pillar for regulatory enforcement. The method employed integrates Community-Based Research (CBR) and Participatory Action Research (PAR), encompassing interactive seminars, participatory discussions, and free legal consultation services. Program effectiveness was evaluated using pretest and posttest instruments administered to 85 participants. Results indicate a significant increase in legal awareness scores from an average of 42.5 to 78.3 (p < 0.01), with the highest improvement in knowledge of rights/obligations and compliance attitudes. A total of 24 consultation cases were successfully handled, primarily focusing on civil and village administration matters in a preventive manner. The findings confirm that a participatory educational approach effectively bridges the gap between formal legal norms and community practices. It is concluded that the program successfully strengthened the community’s legal awareness foundation. It is recommended that this model be developed into a sustainable village legal clinic integrated with village government programs and partner universities.
