Abstract

Urban land conflicts are still a complex and complicated issue in Indonesia. One of the phenomenal urban land conflicts in Indonesia is the conflict between the residents of Dago Elos, Bandung and the Muller Family and PT Dago Intigraha. The conflict began with a claim made by the Muller brothers in 2016 to a 6.3-hectare piece of land that has long been inhabited by hundreds of residents. The purpose of this study is to analyze the use of Instagram Live as a new alternative media in the resistance of Dago Elos residents in Bandung, West Java. The concept used is alternative media. The method in this study is qualitative with digital observation data collection techniques with thematic analysis techniques. The results of the study found that Dago Elos residents use the live streaming feature on Instagram as a medium to voice dissatisfaction and fight for justice by Dago Elos residents. The live streaming is presented not only documenting the repressive actions of the authorities, but also creating a space for citizens to express their collective identity and challenge the dominant narrative. However, there are challenges in using this live streaming in the act of resistance, namely the lack of interaction in the comment column. Through this research, it can be recommended the need to socialize before taking action, namely by disseminating information about the action plan through social media platforms, community groups and the WhatssApp application.

Abstract

This study analyzes deliberative communication practices in urban land conflict, focusing on how communities build and maintain deliberative spaces under structural constraints. A qualitative case study was conducted on the Dago Elos land conflict in Bandung City, involving 331 families facing eviction claims. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with four stakeholder representatives: community leaders, legal aid organizations, local government officials, and land administration agencies. The study reveals three key findings: (1) Institutional fragmentation creates a complete absence of formal dialogue forums between communities and government, forcing communities to develop alternative communication strategies; (2) Counter-public sphere innovation through the Forum Dago Melawan demonstrates successful implementation of deliberative principles (equal participation, consensus-building, reason-giving) at the grassroots level, functioning as a genuine democratic laboratory; (3) Hybrid communication strategies emerge as communities combine rational argumentation with mass mobilization, challenging the traditional dichotomy between reasoned deliberation and political action. Mass actions prove effective in forcing institutional responses when formal channels remain closed, demonstrating that collective mobilization can function as deliberative communication under non-ideal conditions. The research expands deliberative communication theory by showing that deliberative principles can function in non-ideal conditions through creative adaptation and grassroots institutional innovation. Counter-public spheres like Forum Dago Melawan can successfully implement Habermas's ideal speech situation in local settings, while hybrid strategies combining reason-giving with collective action create communicative power capable of influencing administrative responses despite structural power asymmetries. These findings suggest that genuine deliberative communication requires acknowledging and addressing power inequalities rather than hiding them behind claims of procedural neutrality.
