Abstract

Regional legislative bodies (DPRD) play a strategic yet underexamined role in ensuring welfare-oriented policies genuinely benefit the public. This study analyzes the representation of Bengkulu Provincial DPRD members in supporting the "Bantu Rakyat" policy, addressing a gap in existing literature that examines DPRD functions generically without linking them to specific pro-people programs at the provincial level. Employing Hanna Pitkin's (1967) Theory of Representation encompassing formalistic, descriptive, symbolic, and substantive dimensions as its analytical framework, this study uses a qualitative library research method supplemented by purposive in-depth interviews with members of Commission I of the Bengkulu Provincial DPRD. Findings reveal that all four representational dimensions are present, though with varying effectiveness. Formalistic representation is evident in active APBD deliberation and policy approval; descriptive representation emerges through members' diverse socioeconomic backgrounds enabling articulation of constituents' needs; symbolic representation appears in public communications that strengthen public trust. Most critically, substantive representation the highest indicator of representational quality is reflected in supervisory activities including field visits, evaluation sessions, and recommendations to improve benefit distribution transparency, though constrained by limited inter-agency coordination and institutional capacity. This study contributes theoretically by applying Pitkin's framework to a provincial legislative context in Indonesia, and practically by providing a diagnostic basis for strengthening the DPRD's substantive role in welfare policy delivery.

Abstract

The live streaming phenomenon on TikTok has created a new form of interaction between content creators and viewers, requiring hosts to establish a strong emotional connection within a short timeframe. This issue is significant because emotional connection serves as a key factor in maintaining viewer engagement and loyalty in highly competitive digital environments. This study aims to analyze the strategies employed by TikTok live hosts to build emotional connections with their audiences and sustain active participation during live sessions. A descriptive qualitative research method was used, involving a literature review that analyzed various academic sources regarding digital communication and social media. Erving Goffman’s dramaturgical theory was applied to understand how hosts perform on the "front stage" to create a desired impression and manage audience perceptions. The findings indicate that TikTok live hosts utilize various strategies such as personalizing interactions, emotional storytelling, real-time responsiveness, and virtual community building to foster emotional connections. These strategies have proven effective in cultivating a sense of closeness, strengthening audience engagement, and enhancing long-term viewer loyalty and participation on the platform.
