Abstract

Many recent studies show the development of an increasingly diverse elite characterized by the emergence of a new elite and, on the other hand, the collapse of the old elite. However, these studies mainly infer democratic political change as an explanatory factor. This article takes a different standpoint to explain why some local elites collapse, survive, and emerge as new elites. Specifically, this article describes the formation of the elite resource base and its accumulation by emphasizing the perspective of social changes. Resources become the basis of power that determines the position of the elite in society and the political arena. In the data-collecting process, this study conducted interviews with several patrons and local elites accompanied by the collection of other secondary data. Our findings explain that the factor of social changes at the local level becomes the driving force that determines the emergence and collapse of the elite at the local level. The changes in the social structure of society from feudal and hierarchical to modern-competitive society have transformed the composition of the resource base of elite power in society and determined the rise and fall of elite power. In addition, the changes in social structure not only encourage the emergence of other resource bases but also opens up opportunities for the elite to accumulate them. Three critical resources determine the elite's position in Biringkassi village, namely cultural, economic, and educational resources. These three resources determine the formation and shifts of the elite in society. The study asserts that although local political changes occur within a formal-democratic framework, local communities are still tied to a power base that persists outside that framework.

Abstract

The Sidoarjo Public Service System (SIPRAJA) is one of the innovations in public service digitalization initiated by bureaucrats at the Sidoarjo Regency Secretariat. This study aims to determine the process of creating the Sipraja innovation; assess the relevance of applying the Reinventing Government concept; determine Sipraja’s ability to respond to public service demands in Sidoarjo; and evaluate and identify gaps in Sipraja from the innovation process to implementation. This study uses a qualitative, case-study approach. This research was analyzed using five principles from the concept of reinventing government: competitive government, mission-driven government, anticipatory government, entrepreneurial government, and decentralized government. The results of this study indicate that the concept of reinventing government is relevant to Sipraja. The application of the principles in this concept also contributes to the analysis and identification of various challenges and obstacles in Sipraja. Sipraja has great potential to meet the public service demands of the people of Sidoarjo. Basically, Sipraja is a brilliant innovation idea, but it lacks the commitment and efforts of stakeholders to ensure the excellence of Sipraja’s service performance until the implementation stage. This is an important note that needs to be addressed immediately to support the creation of efficient and effective digital public services that people in Sidoarjo can rely on.
