Abstract

This study aims to examine various aspects of elections in Indonesia, encompassing electoral design, the application of information technology, budget allocation, and various issues in the 2019 General Election and the 2020 Election, with the objective of reflecting and evaluating the implementation of the 2024 General Election. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach and descriptive analysis, where primary data were collected through in-depth interviews with stakeholders involved in the general elections and regional elections, as well as through observations and documentation studies. The results indicate that a lack of focus on law enforcement aspects during the legislative process is the primary cause of these issues. Furthermore, several norms were identified as being less practical when applied in the field. These findings underscore the need for clarification and harmonization in Indonesia's election legislation.

Abstract

The traditional methods of vote counting and recapitulation, which include manual and layered processes, are important to ensuring data security and addressing a lack of understanding of public information technology. However, it is essential to quickly and properly disseminate election results among an increasing number of survey findings within the community. Despite this contradictory scenario, it is imperative to employ information technology tools like SITUNG and SIREKAP to ensure transparent dissemination of election outcomes. The study applies a descriptive qualitative approach, collecting primary and secondary data sources including official documents, journal articles, and textbooks. By using three analysis techniques; first, by tabulating the data; second, to categorize the data; third, interpreting the findings based on the theoretical and construction of the data. The results of this study showed three main challenges to the use of digital-based recapitulation: first, the lack of a clear legal basis for the SITUNG and SIREKAP applications, which has triggered criticism from election participants and observers; second, incomplete system support characterized by limited network connectivity, which has created difficulties for field operators in the local level; and third, inappropriate data management in the SITUNG and SIREKAP applications, which included incorrect data entry. Election organizers should be aware that technology-based recapitulation data can become digital evidence for contesting parties in election courts.

Abstract

The gap and limited global references in interpreting government bureaucracy (GB) studies have underpinned the urgency of this study. The purpose of this study is to identify thematic development trends in articles on government bureaucracy (GB). Through bibliometric analysis using the R Studio package Biblioshiny, this literature review examines articles on GB from 2016 to 2025. Using data from 109 journal articles retrieved from the Scopus database and focusing on subject trends, co-occurrence, thematic evolution, and international collaboration networks. The results of the study indicate that the development of government bureaucracy (GB) research themes reflects the changing circumstances that initially were mostly conducted at the national and international government levels, continuing to spread to local governments with the main subject keywords including bureaucracy, corruption, government bureaucracy, international development, and local government as rapidly growing topics in the study of GB. In addition, this study still has limitations because it only examines English-language publications from the last ten years on social science subjects and Scopus databases. The researcher recommends a more comprehensive data coverage, scope, and various other languages to emphasize the need for increased attention to the study of GB.

Abstract

The debates surrounding the parliamentary threshold and presidential threshold have become a recurring phenomenon, particularly in the period leading up to general elections in Indonesia. This paper aims to examine the pros and cons of the implementation and determination processes of both thresholds. Employing a qualitative research method and library research as the primary data collection technique, to validate the data then this research used data triangulation technique. In the Indonesian context, the thresholds applied constitute a form of formal threshold, namely thresholds determined through political and legislative processes in parliament. Consequently, threshold policies are heavily influenced by the configuration of political power among parties. This study finds several key points: First, the discourse on the parliamentary and presidential thresholds has generated intense debate among political scholars, ranging from those who support to those who oppose it, each with their own rationales. Second, the application of formal thresholds as a political product is largely shaped by the position of political parties and the results of previous elections. Consequently, political parties’ responses to the thresholds are inherently dynamic and subject to change over time.
