Abstract

Political science, as a developing discipline, continues to spark debates regarding its scientific foundations. Its expansion into professional and practical domains has yet to establish universally applied standards. This article discusses the dynamics and development of political science by analyzing its scientific basis, areas of study, and historical trajectory. More specifically, it highlights the discipline’s growth in Indonesia. As a relatively young field of study, its development in the democratic era offers hope for the consolidation of political science as a discipline with clearer standards, contributions, and directions for advancement that are connected to global dynamics.

Abstract

Artikel ini melaporkan hasil penelitian yang bertujuan mengukur pengaruh tingkat ketersediaan fasilitas umum ramah disabilitas terhadap partisipasi politik penyandang disabilitas di Kabupaten Banyumas. Teori utama yang digunakan  adalah partisipasi politik yang dielaborasikan dengan teori penyandang disabilitas, fasilitas umum, dan kebijakan publik sebagai pendukung. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan termasuk penelitian kuantitatif dengan metode penelitian survei. Sampel dipilih dengan teknik cluster sampling, dengan target 320 responden yang mewakili 3.334 populasi penyandang disabilitas. Hasil penelitian membuktikan bahwa ketersediaan fasilitas umum ramah disabilitas secara statistik memengaruhi secara signifikan terhadap partisipasi politik penyandang disabilitas. Namun, korelasinya rendah yaitu 0,113 dan kontribusi pengaruhnya yang sangat rendah yakni 1,7 %. Hal ini berarti ketersediaan fasilitas umum ramah disabilitas bukan hal yang utama dalam memengaruhi kualitas partisipasi politik penyandang disabilitas, masih ada variabel laian yang perlu diteliti

Abstract

The issue of fertilizer subsidies extends beyond the technical aspects of budget allocation, distribution methods, and discussions surrounding state food sovereignty. Importantly, the fertilizer subsidy policy is also intertwined with the power dynamics among policy actors, which may encompass political strategies. This study utilizes secondary data sourced from official platforms, including the ministry's website, the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), and media reports concerning public statements issued by relevant authorities in both the legislative and executive branches. The findings of this article suggest that the fertilizer subsidy policy serves as a political populism strategy, bolstering political support for Jokowi and the candidates he endorses, particularly to maximize electoral gains in the three provinces with the largest voter populations in Indonesia: East Java, West Java, and Central Java. This is evidenced by the strategic allocation of the fertilizer subsidy budget, which is intensified in the years preceding presidential elections, specifically in 2019 and 2024. Consequently, although farmers are not the sole determinants of the electoral success of Jokowi and Prabowo-Gibran, their significant numbers at both national and local levels in these three provinces render them a crucial demographic to secure.

Abstract

This study assesses horticulture farmers' perceptions of extension workers' performance and formulates improvement strategies via SWOT analysis. Conducted in three major horticultural hubs—Garung, Kertek, and Kalikajar subdistricts—82 organized farmer group members participated. Purposive sampling targeted high-production areas with active farmer institutions. Data came from Likert-scale questionnaires evaluating three aspects: preparation, implementation, and evaluation/reporting of extension activities. SWOT analysis identified internal (IFAS) and external (EFAS) factors. Findings reveal positive perceptions across all aspects: 93.90% rated preparation good (index 70.96%); 82.93% rated implementation good (69.30%); and 98.78% rated evaluation/reporting good (70.96%). Chi-Square tests confirmed no significant influence from respondent traits (age, gender, education, farming experience) on perceptions. IFAS-EFAS scores showed a strength-weakness differential of 1.008 and opportunity-threat differential of 1.060, placing strategies in Quadrant I (Aggressive/SO). Recommendations emphasize leveraging strengths for opportunities: bolstering technical competencies, optimizing IT use, developing flagship programs, and strengthening ties with local governments and stakeholders.

Abstract

China's rise as a global economic power cannot be separated from the implementation of market socialism initiated by Deng Xiaoping in 1978. However, the direction and sustainability of these reforms were crucially shaped by the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, which served as a critical juncture that determined the relationship between political stability and economic liberalization. This article aims to analyze how the market socialism path developed across leaderships, from Deng Xiaoping to Xi Jinping, and how the post-Tiananmen policy path shaped China's position in the global political economy. This study uses qualitative methods with a Comparative Historical Analysis (CHA) approach to trace the historical cause-and-effect mechanisms and path dependence dynamics in China's political economy policies during the 1978-2013 period. The analysis is conducted using the theoretical framework of market socialism and global political economy, particularly the concept of performance legitimacy, to explain how economic growth has become the main source of political legitimacy. The results show that after Tiananmen, China strengthened political control while deepening market reforms through a pattern of selective adaptation to capitalist institutions. This combination enabled China to achieve rapid economic growth, maintain political stability, and consolidate its position as a global economic power without following the Western capitalist model.

Abstract

Purpose : This study aims to analyze the participation of informal workers in the BPJS Employment program in Indonesia, particularly in the Provinces of Central Java and the Special Region of Yogyakarta, and to examine the differences in policy implementation using the power resource approach developed by Walter Korpi. Design/methodology/approach : This research employs a literature review and data collection methods to analyze the implementation of social security programs for informal workers in Central Java and the Special Region of Yogyakarta in 2023. Findings : The findings show that the participation rate in Yogyakarta reached nearly 37% of the total labor force, while in Central Java it was only around 24%, indicating differences in the effectiveness of policy implementation between the two regions. Local government policies and budget support play a crucial role in increasing participation among informal workers, while economic constraints, low levels of education, and lack of socialization reflect weak power resources, which hinder workers from accessing social security programs. Practical Implication : The findings highlight the importance of strong local government commitment, budget support, and targeted socialization to increase informal workers’ participation in social security programs. Originality/value : This study provides a novel perspective by applying the power resource approach of Walter Korpi at the subnational level, showing that participation differences are influenced not only by economic factors but also by political commitment and distribution of power. Paper type : Research Paper

Abstract

Indonesia is a Muslim-majority country with complex and diverse social and economic welfare problems. These welfare issues sometimes become sensitive electoral issues used to mobilize electoral support in elections. One of the welfare problems experienced by its citizens is the issue of inhospitable housing (Rumah Tidak Layak Huni / RTLH). This article seeks to explain how RTLH has become an electoral issue through the conceptual framework of political linkage. It begins with the question of how Islamic parties contribute to overseeing welfare programs in general and, more specifically, the handling of RTLH at the local level. In contrast to much of the existing scholarship that frames contemporary Indonesian politics primarily in terms of patronage and clientelism, this article starts from the perspective that Islamic parties face various opportunities and constraints in responding to and overseeing welfare policy agendas. By focusing on two Islamic parties—PKB and PKS—in Banyumas Regency, and by adopting the process-tracing analytical method commonly used in comparative politics studies, this article shows that Islamic parties adopt different approaches in supporting the RTLH program at the local level. On the one hand, PKB does not treat the RTLH program as a priority because the policy is considered to offer limited electoral incentives. On the other hand, PKS is more serious in supporting the RTLH program for more ideological reasons. Moreover, PKS maintains a programmatic and strategic political linkage, whereas PKB tends to maintain a pragmatic and tactical political linkage.
