Abstract

Studies on local democracy in Indonesia are still dominated by modern institutional perspectives that tend to ignore local wisdom-based political practices, including the experiences of traditional kingdoms in the archipelago. The Balanipa Kingdom in Mandar is one of the local political entities that demonstrates practices of power based on deliberation, customary legitimacy, and collective participation, but it has not been widely studied in the context of political culture and the formation of civic culture. This study aims to analyze the transformation of the political culture of the Balanipa Kingdom from a traditional power structure to the formation of a civic culture among the Mandar people. The research uses a historical-interpretative approach and library research combined with a socio-political genealogy perspective using historical documents and academic studies on political culture and local democracy. The analysis is conducted through historical interpretation and conceptual synthesis to identify the relationship between customary values, government structures, and the civic orientation of the community. The results of the study show that the Balanipa system of government is not an absolute monarchy, but contains deliberative mechanisms through customary institutions such as Appeq Banua Kayyang, which functions as a check on Mara'dia's power. The values of deliberation (sirumung karaya), consensus (assamaturuang), and solidarity (sikalulu) form the participatory and collective political orientation of the community, transforming into a civic culture that shapes social participation and political legitimacy. This study concludes that local democracy has developed historically in the Mandar tradition through customary institutions. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of local political history analysis with political culture and civic culture theory. This study contributes an alternative perspective that Indonesian democracy can be strengthened through the revitalization of local political values as the foundation of substantive democracy based on cultural wisdom

Abstract

This community service activity aimed to enhance environmental law literacy among members of HIMA PPKN FIS-H UNM in understanding the phenomena of floods and landslides that occurred in Sumatra in 2025 from the perspective of environmental law. The activity was carried out through a participatory discussion method, actively involving participants in question-and-answer sessions and the exchange of ideas related to the issues discussed. The results of the activity indicate a shift in participants’ perspectives in understanding disasters, which were previously perceived merely as natural events, toward a more comprehensive and critical understanding. Participants came to realize that floods and landslides in Sumatra are not only influenced by natural factors, such as tropical cyclone activity, but are also closely related to structural factors, particularly the legal framework that grants greater licensing authority to the central government than to local governments, as well as human behavior that tends to be exploitative and poorly controlled in the utilization of natural resources, whether by individuals, groups, or corporations. This understanding contributed to an increased awareness among participants of the relationship between legal policies, development practices, and large-scale deforestation, thereby demonstrating that the community service activity had a positive and significant impact in strengthening environmental law literacy among students.
