Abstract

This study aims to describe the dynamics of the power relations between villages and districts as the impact of village expansion in East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, villages and how the construction of power relations must be carried out by villages and districts. The position of the village has been strengthened with the enactment of Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages and the latest amendment with Law Number 3 of 2024. With this law, villages have a high level of confidence, for several reasons, including: the identity of villages and customary villages is clarified; the state recognizes authority based on the right of origin of the village and local-scale authority (subordination); villages are budgeted through the State Budget in the form of Village Funds (DD); The opening of opportunities for the emergence of new elites in the village as a result of political liberation. The method used is in the form of a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, FGDs and document data analysis and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results of the study show that the dynamics of the power relationship between villages and districts in East Lombok are very dynamic; Villages are beginning to be consolidated internally because some of the resources they have and the pattern of mutually beneficial relations between villages and districts are rational choices to build power relations that strengthen each other in running the government.

Abstract

This article explores the electoral behaviour of Muslim voters in the 2024 Gubernatorial Election of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), Indonesia. Motivated by concerns over the political marginalisation of Muslim candidates in NTT’s local elections and the wider discourse on minority political participation, the study adopts a voting behaviour framework that integrates sociological, psychological, and rational-choice approaches. It examines how sociocultural backgrounds, religious identity, economic considerations, and political affiliations influence Muslim voting preferences. The analysis also considers the role of historical voting patterns, political party dynamics, and the influence of prominent Islamic figures and organisations. Set in a Christian-majority province, the study investigates the interplay between identity politics, economic rationality, and political pragmatism. Findings suggest that Muslim voters exhibit a nuanced approach to leadership selection, prioritising democratic values, visionary governance, and service-oriented leadership over narrow religious affiliations. Interview data reveal that qualities such as empathy, populism, decisiveness, and moral integrity—particularly a strong anti-corruption stance—are highly valued. Voters also emphasise the importance of political and administrative experience, while viewing intelligence, religiosity, and military credentials as supplementary advantages. Overall, Muslim voters in NTT seek leaders who combine intellectual competence with emotional proximity to the electorate and a deep commitment to public welfare. This research contributes to the broader understanding of minority political agency in Indonesia and highlights the need for more inclusive political frameworks to promote equitable representation and strengthen democratic practices in multi-religious societies.

Abstract

Periodically, every five years, general elections are held as a form of democracy in Indonesia. During elections, political issues are often followed by controversies, conflicts, and disputes in local power competitions. These issues include cheating, money politics, and vote manipulation. The purpose of this study is to encourage the establishment of a permanent electoral court in the constitutional system and in the form of a state institution to handle any existing election results disputes, whether for the presidential election, legislative election, or regional election. To achieve the electoral justice system's legal certainty and utility principles. The research method was used qualitatively with a case study research design. The results indicate that the establishment of an election court institution is essential, considering elections are held regularly and periodically as part of people's sovereignty representation and efforts to establish a fair electoral system. An election court institution is necessary for Indonesian elections, tasked with handling every election dispute, thereby allowing the Constitutional Court to focus solely on testing laws against the 1945 Constitution. This journal concludes that an electoral justice institution needs to be established permanently, with competent judges and resources to handle every election-related case to realize an electoral justice system.
