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 discusses the dynamics of the practice of discriminating religious minorities in Oi Bura Village, Tambora District, Bima Regency, West Nusa Tenggara Province by dominant ethnic and/or religious adherents there. The practice of religious discrimination took the form of prejudice, different treatment, and political-economic restrictions experienced by Hindus as immigrants from Bali. The study case approach used in this study examined the relevance of two main aspects. These aspects include (1) the history of Oi Bura Village and the phenomenon of social segregation, and (2) the practice of discrimination against religious minorities in that village and the strategy of eliminating it through the iterative construction of social inclusion discourse. The process of separating the location of settlements between a group of people from Bali and other groups in Oi Bura Village reflects the continuity of the colonial heritage in the form of ethnic and religious residential segregation. As a result, this practice has triggered the emergence of social distances between community groups that have violated the principles of inclusion or social solidarity.

Abstract

This article deals with the implementation dynamics of the Village Law in a particular context that reflects the practice of developing participatory democracy. The effective administration of village development necessitates the cultivation of a collective ethos to foster a sense of kinship and cooperation and to promote the integration of social justice principles. In essence, effective governance necessitates accountability and participation, whereby the village government is responsible for transparently reporting and justifying all development operations or programs to residents under regulations outlined in the Village Law. Furthermore, residents should be actively engaged and involved in all phases of the development process. This study employed a descriptive approach and purposive sample technique to select key informants from government officials and citizens of Soriutu Village, located in the Manggelewa District of Dompu Regency, inside the West Nusa Tenggara Province. This essay examined the dynamics of actors' relationships in the management of development activities, specifically focusing on the leadership style of the village head from 2010 to 2016. The autocratic leadership style in Soriutu Village hinders the inclusion of inhabitants in all stages of village development governance, impeding the achievement of participatory democracy. This study's findings could enhance the theoretical understanding of leadership styles, community participation, transparency, informal participation preferences, participatory democracy, deliberative democracy critiques, and optimal village development management models.

Abstract

Taking economic benefits from reserved land became a considerable business for many local governments worldwide, including the Bima Regency Government, through an annual leasing policy. Besides its success story, which can increase regional original income, the policy implementation also leaves complicated problems, often characterized by the tension of the struggle for management rights and negative accusations regarding the auction process, which needs to be more transparent. This article discusses an empirical case about the tension of actor relations in the scramble for limited resources in a local context, where the authors conducted in-depth interviews with several informants who were selected through purposive sampling techniques, including those in charge, directors, and leaders of the Regency Level Committee, as well as individual participants, both those who won and lost in the annual leasing auction. Although the land leasing policy can increase local original income and provide opportunities for landless residents to engage in agricultural activities, the auction practice is often marked by a need for more transparency and conflicts of interest. Such a conflict is especially evident in the uneven auction process, which tends to trigger stakeholder tensions. This policy has yet to be entirely successful in supporting land conservation for long-term agricultural production regarding the threat of land degradation due to excessive exploitation.

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.

Abstract

Populism in Indonesia has been a crucial political phenomenon in recent decades, rooted in the nation's socio-political history. This article examines the historical context, core elements, and blind spots in prior research on Indonesian populism by analyzing 107 scholarly works published between 2001 and 2024 in the Scopus database. The findings reveal that Indonesian populism has evolved through various phases, from anti-colonial nationalist movements to contemporary digital populism, where social media plays a central role in mobilizing mass support and amplifying identity-based political narratives. The author identifies seven core elements shaping Indonesian populism, including its domains, antecedents, mobilization channels, and political consequences. The author also highlights blind spots in previous studies, specifically the limited focus on local-level populism, the long-term economic implications of populist policies, and the deepening societal polarization caused by digital populist discourse. By incorporating comparative perspectives with other Southeast Asian nations, this review broadens the understanding of populism’s regional dynamics. The findings contribute to academic discourse on populism and provide insights for policymakers in addressing the challenges posed by populist rhetoric and governance. Future research should explore empirical case studies on local populist movements and assess the impact of populist policies on democratic institutions in Indonesia.

Abstract

Political professionalisation is essential in developing more structured, efficient, and transparent political practices oriented toward the broader public interest. However, the process also faces challenges such as potential elitism and alienation of politicians from the general public. Using the Bibliometrix RStudio software, this review presents trends and patterns in political professionalisation research from 57 articles in the Scopus database, published between March 1997 and April 2024. There is a significant upward research trend, with 5.27% annual publication growth on the issue. The authors found four primary research streams in the study of political professionalisation, each integrating distinct thematic categories: (1) the nature of political professionalisation focuses on the fundamental characteristics of political professionalisation, including its core substance and the evolving profile of career politicians; (2) political professionalisation strategies and capacity examines the mechanisms through which professionalisation occurs, covering the legislative role, political communication and campaigns, and the institutionalisation of political parties; (3) the adoption and diffusion of political professionalisation highlights shifts in politician recruitment patterns and the impact of country size on professionalisation processes; (4) the implementation and impact of political professionalisation assess the consequences of these transformations, providing insights into their broader political implications. Several areas still require further investigation based on the 56 questions identified. By filling these gaps, future research will provide a more holistic view of political professionalisation in an increasingly complex and changing political context and enhance the effectiveness and inclusiveness of political systems worldwide.

Abstract

Tulisan ini membahas aktivisme sosial yang dijalankan LAKPESDAM PCNU Kabupaten Bima dalam ranah pemberdayaan masyarakat di Desa Oi Bura Kecamatan Tambora Kabupaten Bima Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Barat. Kajian ini menjadi penting artinya untuk memetakan secara utuh kontribusi NGO sebagai salah satu aktor non-negara dalam memberdayakan masyarakat miskin atau tertinggal. Tugas pemberdayaan masyarakat dan pengentasan kemiskinan sebenarnya merupakan tanggung jawab penuh pemerintah sebagaimana diamanatkan oleh konstitusi yang berlaku di Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia. Meskipun demikian, peran aktor dan organisasi yang berada di luar sektor pemerintah, seperti NGO, juga sangat dibutuhkan dalam melaksanakan tugas semacam itu demi akselerasi perwujudan kesejahteraan sosial secara menyeluruh. Melalui pendekatan studi kasus, kajian ini tertuju pada kondisi terkini kehidupan sosial-ekonomi masyarakat Desa Oi Bura dan peran pemberdayaan sosial yang dijalankan LAKPESDAM PCNU Kabupaten Bima. Unsur pimpinan organisasi, tim pelaksana program pemberdayaan masyarakat, dan beberapa warga menjadi subyek penelitian. Mengacu pada sejumlah temuan lapangan, aktivisme sosial LAKPESDAM PCNU Kabupaten Bima melalui program “Peduli” selama dua tahun (2014-2016) di Desa Oi Bura adalah bersifat signifikan serta kontributif menumbuhkan kesadaran sosial dan keberdayaan warga. NGO tersebut mampu mentransfer pengetahuan tentang inklusi sosial, mengintensifkan pemberian layanan dasar, dan memperluas akses interaksi warga dengan Pemerintah Desa.

Abstract

Tulisan ini membahas peran penyadaran sosial NGO berorientasi penguatan efikasi politik dan kontrol demokratis kelompok perempuan terhadap kinerja Pemerintahan Desa dalam pengelolaan pembangunan, ditinjau dari konsep active citizenship as a demand yang menghendaki kehadiran warga-negara aktif. Dilatari kenyataan bahwa hampir sebagian besar perempuan di Desa Bajo Kecamatan Soromandi Kabupaten Bima Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Barat mutlak tidak pernah dilibatkan dalam forum perencanaan-penganggaran yang selama ini diselenggarakan oleh Pemerintah Desa dan BPD, LAKPESDAM PCNU Kabupaten Bima telah melaksanakan sebuah program pemberdayaan masyarakat di tahun 2017-2018 silam untuk mengatasi kondisi miris ini. Melalui studi kualitatif-deskriptif, peneliti berupaya mencari gambaran aktual perihal dinamika pelaksanaan peran conscientization NGO tersebut sekaligus mengungkap cerita perubahan paling signifikan yang muncul sebagai akibat intervensinya. Meski hanya melaksanakan program dengan pendanaan utuh dari International Funding Agency, LAKPESDAM PCNU Kabupaten Bima mampu merintis jejak penerapan gagasan active citizenship as a demand di mana unsur masyarakat sipil tertentu didorong berani mengekspresikan klaim kepada para pemegang kuasa di desa melalui saluran alternatif ketika berhadapan dengan kondisi keterbatasan akses partisipasi dalam mekanisme reguler.
