Abstract

The ability of civil society to advocate against corruption depends heavily on the openness of civic space and freedom of expression. This paper examines the state of civic space in Indonesia, analyzing how legal, political, and social pressures affect anti-corruption activism. Through qualitative research including interviews with activists, NGOs, and government officials, coupled with analysis of relevant laws and incidents, the study highlights trends of civic space shrinkage such as restrictive regulations, intimidation, and censorship. The paper discusses the implications for anti-corruption advocacy and democratic accountability, emphasizing the need for legal protections and inclusive governance to safeguard free speech. This research contributes to the international discourse on the nexus between human rights, governance, and corruption control in transitional democracies.
