Abstract

Societal demand for qualified and innovative public service has increased. In the era of decentralization, the ability to overcome various public service problems greatly determines the government's credibility. Thus, a capable government would gain more and more support from the people to provide satisfying public service. The quality of service should become all parties' concern within the government, either at the implementation or leadership level, by its role. The regional government needs integrated management within its administration, particularly in licensing services. The service would highly depend on three aspects: the implementation pattern, human resources support, organization, and facilities infrastructure. Therefore, the task force's order, mechanism, and implementation procedures are needed to improve the service.

Abstract

This article explores the complexity of factors that mobilize the participation of first-time voters in the 2024 Legislative Election in Rabadompu Timur Village, Raba District, Bima City, West Nusa Tenggara Province. The low level of involvement of first-time voters in the general election process in Indonesia is the imperative basis for exploring the root causes underlying this phenomenon in order to strengthen the integrity and inclusiveness of electoral democracy. The urgency of this study is based on tracing the path of first-time voter participation, which has a crucial function in strengthening the legitimacy of the general election results through identifying dominant determinants in the form of political efficacy levels, candidate campaign strategies, and financial incentives. Data were collected from interviews with 20 first-time voters. The results of the study show that political efficacy plays an important role in encouraging participation, where voters with high confidence in their ability to influence election results tend to be more active. Candidate campaign strategies that utilize social media effectively also increase the involvement of first-time voters, although overly aggressive campaigns can actually reduce participation. In addition, financial incentives have been shown to mobilize some voters, although many still consider the candidate's program. These findings provide practical insights for policymakers and candidates in increasing the political participation of first-time voters, as well as offer theoretical contributions to the literature on voter behaviour.

Abstract

This article explores the dynamics of non-democratic political leadership and its implications for development management in Mawu Village, Ambalawi Sub-district, Bima Regency, West Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. In many developing countries, including Indonesia, authoritarian leadership is still a common practice in village governance, although its impact on village development has yet to be studied in depth. This study seeks to fill this knowledge gap by analyzing how centralized leadership impacts resource allocation, transparency, and corruption at the local level. Applying a case study approach, the authors collected the data through in-depth interviews and observations. The results show that the concentration of power in a handful of village elites results in unfair and non-transparent resource management, exacerbating socio-economic inequality in the community. Systematic corrupt practices further hamper sustainable development, erode public trust in village governance, and strengthen oppressive power structures. The findings are expected to serve as a foundation for more inclusive and accountable policy formulation in the context of village development, particularly in areas with non-democratic governance.
