Abstract

Village development is one of the main pillars in the effort to improve community welfare and promote economic equity. Although the number of advanced and self-sufficient villages has continued to increase, the gap between rural and urban areas remains significant, particularly in infrastructure, access to basic services, and technology. Development conflicts are largely unavoidable, often triggered by disparities in resource distribution, ineffective communication, and limited public understanding of development benefits. This study examines the role of village autonomy in preventing development conflicts and its implications for sustainable and equitable growth, using Wadas Village, Central Java, as a case study. The conflict emerged from the government’s plan to exploit andesite stone for the Bener Dam without transparent public participation. The local community resisted, fearing environmental degradation and threats to agricultural land. The unequal distribution of benefits intensified tensions, as residents perceived more harm than advantage from the project. This study employed a descriptive-analytical method with a qualitative approach to analyze conflict patterns and contributing factors by reviewing academic literature, policy reports, and official documents. The findings reveal that village development conflicts in Indonesia are multidimensional, shaped by socio-economic disparities and uneven resource distribution. Poor communication, limited public participation, and neglect of local wisdom further exacerbate tensions. Village autonomy offers a strategic opportunity to establish conflict prevention mechanisms through policy integration. A holistic approach, encompassing structural assessment, actor analysis, and conflict mitigation, can foster more inclusive and equitable development.

Abstract

Impeachment in Indonesia’s presidential system, as regulated in the post-amendment 1945 Constitution, operates at the intersection of formal legal instruments and political practice. Using a qualitative method with juridical-normative and political-analytical approaches, this study examines the constitutional provisions alongside the political configuration of the DPR after the 2024 election. Findings show that while the legal framework prescribes a clear multistage process, its effectiveness is constrained by dominant ruling coalitions and elite interests, making impeachment politically improbable without a legitimacy crisis. Applying Weber’s theory of legitimacy, Thompson’s moral politics, Ackerman’s separation of powers in legitimacy crises, and Linz’s perils of presidentialism, this research argues that impeachment is both a legal and political arena. The study recommends procedural reforms to bridge formal legality and substantive legitimacy, emphasizing public accountability mechanisms to strengthen executive oversight and democratic resilience.

Abstract

This study analyzes legal issues in legislative elections in Indonesia by highlighting three main interrelated issues, namely the crisis of meritocracy in political recruitment, high political costs, and the application of electoral thresholds. From a constitutional law perspective, elections are a constitutional instrument for realizing people's sovereignty as stipulated in Article 1 paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution. However, this study shows that the implementation of election regulations does not fully reflect the fundamental principles of honest, fair, open elections that provide equal opportunities as emphasized in Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning Elections. Using a normative legal approach with a statute approach, conceptual approach, and comparative approach, this study evaluates the relationship between electoral regulation design and the political behavior of actors. The analysis shows that the mechanism for recruiting legislative candidates still relies on personal loyalty and financial capacity, which contradicts the principles of meritocracy and justice in electoral law. High-cost politics also narrows political access for non-elite groups, weakens election integrity, and creates dependence on external funding. Meanwhile, the 4% electoral threshold, which aims to simplify the party system, has implications for reduced political representation and the emergence of tensions between political system efficiency and the protection of citizens' political rights. This study concludes that the combination of these three factors has shaped a procedural democracy that lacks the substance of representative democracy. These findings contribute theoretically through the integration of legal and electoral policy analysis to assess the quality of democracy in Indonesia.

Abstract

The accelerating processes of globalization and democratization have transformed national security dynamics. National security encompasses a state’s capacity to defend itself against internal and external threats. The emergence of social media, driven by advancements in internet technology, plays a significant role in influencing the political landscape. However, the growing dependence on social media platforms has given rise to the phenomenon of the echo chamber effect, where individuals are increasingly exposed to content that reinforces their pre-existing beliefs, exacerbating polarization, which has the potential to heighten political tensions and trigger social fragmentation, particularly during electoral cycles. This study focuses on Indonesia’s 2024 Regional Head Elections, analyzing how the echo chamber effect may threaten national cohesion. Using a qualitative approach, data was collected through observational techniques and an extensive literature review. The study analyzes information patterns on social media, identifies emerging conflict triggers, and proposes relevant preventive measures. Key findings highlight the importance of government intervention in monitoring social media platforms and enhancing public digital literacy. The recommended strategic policies include AI-based monitoring, forming expert-led rapid response teams, and strengthening regulations to manage content exacerbating polarization. Collaboration among stakeholders, including the government, private sector, and civil society, is crucial in mitigating social fragmentation caused by information polarization. This study also advocates implementing national digital literacy initiatives to counter disinformation and polarization. Therefore, this research provides valuable insights into safeguarding national security amidst growing digital threats while supporting the sustainability of democratic processes in Indonesia.
