Abstract

This study aims to analyze the practice of money politics in the 2021 Mekarwangi Village Head Election (Pilkades), Sageti District, Pandeglang Regency, as well as identify the underlying factors. Money politics is a phenomenon that continues to appear in every democratic contest at the local level and is often considered commonplace. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, documentation, and literature studies. The results of the study show that the practice of money politics is carried out in a planned and systematic manner by the village head candidate and his successful team through the distribution of cash, basic necessities, and personal goods ahead of election day. The main factors behind the occurrence of this practice include the low economic condition of the community, the lack of political education, and the culture of money politics that has taken root in the community. This practice shows the weakness of democratic awareness and makes people pragmatic in making their political choices. Money politics not only undermines the essence of democracy, but also lowers the quality of leadership at the village level. Therefore, it is necessary to increase political education and strict supervision so that the implementation of the upcoming Regional Elections will run more cleanly and democratically.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of village government in gender-based community empowerment in Curuglanglang Village, Munjul District, Pandeglang Regency. Gender inequality remains a significant issue at the village level, where women's participation in development is still limited. The research applies the Harvard Gender Analysis Model focusing on four key components to understand gender roles and relations within the community. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method by conducting in-depth interviews with nine informants from various community groups, and data validity was tested through triangulation. The findings indicate that the village government’s role in gender-based community empowerment is still suboptimal. The low participation of women in development activities and the lack of public awareness regarding gender equality are major obstacles. The village government is expected to formulate more gender-responsive policies and programs, and to enhance education and public awareness of women’s vital role in village development.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the comparison of the implementation of simultaneous village head elections in Pandeglang Regency, focusing on two villages, namely Tegalwangi Village, Menes District and Tegal Cikedal Village, Pandeglang Regency. This study examines the extent of effectiveness, community participation, as well as driving and inhibiting factors in the village head election process in the two regions. The study uses William N. Dunn's evaluation theory as an analytical framework, with a qualitative descriptive method. Data was collected through interviews, observations, and documentation of ten key informants directly involved in the implementation of the village head election. Data analysis was carried out using the Miles and Huberman interactive model which included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the implementation of simultaneous village head elections in Pandeglang Regency is generally going well and democratically, reflected in the increase in community participation and acceptance of the election results. However, it was found that there are potential obstacles such as the practice of black campaigns that still occur in several village head candidates. Therefore, it is necessary to increase supervision and enforcement of rules to ensure that the implementation of the next village head election runs more transparently, honestly, and with integrity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the socio-economic conditions of extreme poor communities in Medalsari Village and Sinarjaya Village, Pandeglang Regency. This topic was raised to understand the factors that influence extreme poverty in both villages and to identify effective mitigation strategies based on local conditions. Another reason for choosing this theme is that the village with the highest level of extreme poverty in Pandeglang, which requires a strategic and effective approach to get out of the extreme poverty zone and reduce its impact. The research method used is a quantitative method with a survey technique. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to respondents totaling 117 Heads of Families for Sinarjaya Village, and 139 Heads of Families for Medalsari Village which came from P3KE Bappeda Pandeglang Regency data. This survey involved aspects such as income, education level, access to basic services, and employment conditions. The research findings show that there are still households that are not categorized as extremely poor, most heads of families work in the informal sector (laborers and farmers) with limited skills and experience, social support in the form of government assistance has not fully covered their basic needs, families try to cover the shortfall through alternative businesses and rely on social assistance, although the potential productivity of family members can still be increased. The impact of this research is expected to provide more targeted and data-based policy recommendations to reduce extreme poverty in Pandeglang Regency. These findings are also expected to be a reference for stakeholders in designing more effective and sustainable poverty alleviation programs.

Penelitian ini menggunakan teori kepemimpinan dengan pendekatan kualitatif dan metode deskriptif. Informan penelitian meliputi Kepala Desa, perangkat desa, ketua RT/RW, serta masyarakat penerima manfaat program. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis dengan teknik reduksi data, penyajian data, serta penarikan kesimpulan secara induktif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa gaya kepemimpinan Kepala Desa cenderung partisipatif dan komunikatif, yang berdampak positif terhadap efektivitas program penanggulangan kemiskinan.
