Abstract

Electoral contestations at the village level have seemingly been an ‘isolated’ phenomenon in social and political studies. Most studies have focused on local executive and legislative elections, as well as the political representations they involve. This article, instead, looks to the village level, examining the political representation involved in the village chief  elections of  Dlingo, Bantul, Yogyakarta. Qualitative research methods (interviews, live-in observations) were conducted before, during, and after the elections. This study finds that the rise of  the two candidates could be traced to various factors and tendencies, and that the models of  political representation at the village chief  (executive) level are similar to those in legislature.

Abstract

It is commonly assumed that multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research collaborations involve various values, knowledge, and practices, thereby existing between science and policy. This study argues, oppositely, that multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research collaborations are socially constructed and not to be taken for granted. To support its argument, this article uses the concept of boundary work to see how the interaction between science and policy is constructed. Taking as its case study the Ground Up consortium, a collaborative water management research programme involving the Netherlands and Indonesia, this study finds that boundary work generated and formed boundaries between science and policy through a joint call for proposal documents, research proposals, and three people operating at boundaries. Furthermore, this article shows that the collaborative research in the Ground Up consortium was a social process evidenced through three mediums: text, object, and person. This qualitative research thus uses a single-case study to explore boundary work in a consortium setting. Data were collected through a review of documents (meeting notes, research proposals, and calls for proposals) as well as in-depth interviews with three members of the Ground Up consortium.

Abstract

One of the serious problems in democracy in Indonesia is the practice of money politics in general elections. In many ways, the practice of money politics is quite problematic. Money politics is believed to take place but is difficult to prove. This situation can be caused by the reluctance of citizens to report money politics practices. On the other hand, voter participation rates in Indonesia from time to time are quite high. In order to answer this paradox, this article tries to elaborate on citizens' interest in participating in elections with an awareness of money politics. The question to be answered is to what extent does voting participation influence awareness of money politics? This article uses Kolasse survey data in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (D.I.Y) in December 2022 and using research data conducted by the Research Center for Politics and Government (PolGov) on the Village Head Election (Pilkades) in Yogyakarta in December 2018. The analysis results show that the more someone wants to participate in voting, the more that person will not report the practice of money politics. This result is interesting, considering that D.I.Y is one of the provinces with a very high Human Development Index (HDI) among provinces. The high HDI figure shows the high quality of life in the region, which is expected to influence the quality of democracy. Likewise, qualitative research shows that the lower the level of election in Indonesia, the smaller the possibility of money politics occurring. This condition is also supported by the potential to build and strengthen political links between citizens and civil society organizations. Hopefully, this short article can contribute to sparking discussion regarding money politics. On the other hand, this paper still has shortcomings, especially regarding the importance of elaborating on the operationalization of money politics, the need for measurements using survey data with a large number of respondents and on a national scale as well as strengthening evidence in research on gaps in the use of money politics on a national and regional scale.

Abstract

Evidence-based policymaking (EBP) relies on an epistemological assumption that evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) is the finest evidence for policy formulation, while expert testimony is the poorest one. This paper argues that while RCTs are a valuable source of empirical evidence for policy interventions, they are not sufficient on their own to support evidence-based policy formulation. Through the lens of the INUS framework of causation, we demonstrate that the effectiveness of a policy is influenced by a complex interplay of contextual factors, which RCTs alone cannot capture. We advocate for the integration of contextual and qualitative knowledge, including testimonies from experts and community members, to supplement RCT findings. This additional knowledge provides insights into the social, cultural, and subjective dimensions of the target population, addressing motivations, preferences, and other factors that can significantly impact policy success. By comparing reductionist and non-reductionist perspectives on the use of testimony in evidence-based policy, we argue for a balanced approach that values credible testimonies as essential to understanding context. Ultimately, this paper underscores the importance of a multifaceted evidence approach in crafting effective, context-sensitive public policies.

Abstract

The monetary turmoil that occurred in 1998 plunged Indonesia into an economic crisis that had an unfavorable impact on the national economy, which at the time was dependent on foreign investment. In the end, to help improve the economy in Indonesia, the Government at that time took action to ask for assistance from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The injection of funds from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) provided conditions for the Government of Indonesia to establish new bankruptcy regulations from the commonly used Dutch Bankruptcy Law of 1905 (Faillissements-Verordening, Staatsblad 217/1905 and Staatsblad 348/1906) so that the Government issued Government Regulation in Lieu of Law Number 1 of 1998 concerning Amendments to the Bankruptcy Law. In PERPPU 1/1998, it provides easy bankruptcy application requirements where the conditions only require 2 creditors and one of the creditors has a debt that has matured. Until Law No. 37/2004 on Bankruptcy and PKPU was enacted, the requirements for bankruptcy applications remained unchanged, so this paper aims to analyze the requirements for filing bankruptcy applications, which tend to be pro-creditor, so that it is straightforward to put debtors in a state of bankruptcy or PKPU, where the existence of the Bankruptcy and PKPU Law should provide help for debtors to find a solution to the debt pressure that has hit the debtor.
