Abstract

This study comprehensively examines the design of gubernatorial elections in Indonesia within the framework of decentralisation, with a particular focus on balancing the principle of popular sovereignty and the demands of local government effectiveness. Through a normative legal approach, juridical-deductive analysis, and a comparative constitutional study of the United States, Germany, India, Brazil, and the Philippines, this article evaluates the impact of the current design of gubernatorial elections on these two pillars. The main findings show that while direct gubernatorial elections formally affirm popular sovereignty, their implementation is faced with various juridical and political challenges such as money politics, dynastic politics, and party cartelisation that significantly delegitimized the essence of such sovereignty and undermine the effectiveness of local governance. The comparative analysis offers a spectrum of subnational local government election models, from direct elections to parliamentary appointments, whose success depends largely on the socio-political and constitutional context of each country. Based on these findings, the research recommends a series of multi-faceted reforms that touch not only on the electoral mechanism, but also on campaign finance regulation, political party institutional strengthening, and electoral law enforcement, in order to realise an ideal gubernatorial election design capable of strengthening the quality of democracy and the effectiveness of local governance in Indonesia. Penelitian ini mengkaji secara komprehensif desain pemilihan gubernur di Indonesia dalam kerangka desentralisasi, dengan fokus utama pada upaya menyeimbangkan prinsip kedaulatan rakyat dan tuntutan efektivitas pemerintahan daerah. Melalui pendekatan hukum normatif, analisis yuridis-deduktif, dan studi perbandingan konstitusional terhadap Amerika Serikat, Jerman, India, Brasil, dan Filipina, artikel ini mengevaluasi dampak desain pemilihan gubernur saat ini terhadap kedua pilar tersebut. Temuan utama menunjukkan bahwa meskipun pemilihan langsung gubernur secara formal mengafirmasi kedaulatan rakyat, implementasinya dihadapkan pada berbagai tantangan yuridis dan politis seperti politik uang, politik dinasti, dan kartelisasi partai yang secara signifikan mendelegitimasi esensi kedaulatan tersebut dan melemahkan efektivitas pemerintahan daerah. Analisis komparatif menawarkan spektrum model pemilihan kepala daerah sub-nasional, dari pemilihan langsung hingga penunjukan parlementer, yang keberhasilannya sangat bergantung pada konteks sosio-politik dan konstitusional masing-masing negara. Berdasarkan temuan ini, penelitian merekomendasikan serangkaian reformasi multi-aspek yang tidak hanya menyentuh mekanisme pemilihan, tetapi juga regulasi pendanaan kampanye, penguatan institusi partai politik, dan penegakan hukum pemilu, guna mewujudkan desain pemilihan gubernur yang ideal, yang mampu memperkuat kualitas demokrasi dan efektivitas pemerintahan daerah di Indonesia. Keywords: Governor Election; Popular Sovereignty; Election System; Regional Head Election.

Abstract

Private involvement in State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) is a form of strategic transformation in an effort to improve efficiency, competitiveness, and better corporate governance. The problems in this study are: a) How is the implementation of private involvement in BUMN? and b) How is the impact of private involvement on People's Welfare? The research method used is normative juridical. The conclusion of this study is that the implementation of private involvement is carried out through privatization schemes with the main objective of increasing efficiency, capital, and modernizing BUMN management. The impact of private involvement in SOEs includes increased operational efficiency, more transparent and accountable governance, and increased contribution to the national economy. However, this involvement also brings challenges such as the potential for excessive commercialization, conflicts of interest, and the risk of weakening public service functions. Therefore, strong regulations and consistent supervision are needed to ensure synergy between state and private interests in the management of SOEs.

Abstract

This study examines the binding force of the WHO Patient Safety Rights Charter (2024) as a soft law instrument within the Indonesian legal system and evaluates the potential application of its principles in the formulation of national health policies. The research employs a normative juridical method with descriptive, analytical, and comparative approaches toward international norms, including the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and the Global Patient Safety Action Plan (2021–2030), as well as relevant national regulations. The findings indicate that although the WHO Charter is not legally binding, it possesses substantial normative and moral authority derived from the ethical legitimacy of the World Health Organization and its alignment with the principles of the right to health. In Indonesia, several principles of the Charter have been partially reflected in Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health; however, normative gaps remain, particularly regarding patients’ participatory rights and medical justice. Soft law acquires its normative strength through moral legitimacy, broad acceptance, and integration into domestic policy frameworks. The study concludes that strengthening legal protection for patient safety in Indonesia requires the explicit incorporation of the WHO Charter’s principles into implementing regulations, thereby fostering a health law system that is equitable, accountable, and grounded in human rights.
