Abstract

Background: The quality of education services requires continuous improvement, as emphasized by the Minister of Education and Culture, Muhadjir Effendy, through the revitalization of the School Committee's duties under the principle of mutual cooperation. Permendikbud No. 75 of 2016 establishes the School Committee as an independent institution composed of parents, school communities, and concerned community leaders. Despite these provisions, practices such as mandatory farewell donations often resemble illegal levies, contradicting legal culture, decency, and public interest. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the legality of mandatory farewell donations under Article 12 Letter B of Permendikbud No. 75/2016, examining their alignment with the principles of mutual cooperation and accountability. Methodology: The research employs a normative and juridical approach, analyzing data through descriptive analysis to interpret legal and cultural aspects. Findings: Mandatory farewell donations are often framed as agreements between schools, committees, and parents but tend to violate the legal culture's substance. These practices undermine public trust in educational institutions and conflict with legal principles aimed at ensuring fairness and decency in education. Conclusion: Mandatory farewell donations contradict the principles of mutual cooperation and accountability, highlighting the need for improved legal awareness and cultural shifts among education providers to prevent illegal levies.

Abstract

The legality of empty boxes in Indonesia's elections raises critical questions about democratic legitimacy and public trust. Empty boxes often symbolize voter dissatisfaction with candidates, reflecting deeper systemic issues within the democratic framework. This study examines the legality and implications of empty boxes, employing a normative juridical approach to analyze legal and political perspectives. Data were collected through a legislative, comparative, and case-based approach, followed by descriptive analysis. The findings reveal that while empty boxes can serve as a form of protest, they also highlight the limitations of political parties in presenting viable candidates. This phenomenon undermines the legitimacy of electoral outcomes and public trust in democratic institutions. By exploring voter behavior, legal frameworks, and historical precedents, this research identifies the empty box phenomenon as a critical challenge to Indonesia's democracy. The study concludes that addressing the root causes of voter dissatisfaction and promoting political competition are essential for safeguarding democratic integrity. This research contributes to the discourse on electoral governance and offers recommendations for strengthening Indonesia's democratic processes.
