Abstract

General elections are the main pillars of Indonesian democracy as stipulated in Article 27 of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections. The younger generation, which makes up about 55% of the total electorate, has a strategic role in determining the political direction of the nation. However, the phenomenon of political apathy and white groups (golput) among the younger generation shows a low awareness of their constitutional rights and obligations. This research aims to analyze efforts to increase the political awareness of the younger generation through political education and legal socialization. The method used is counseling and mentoring activities for students of SMK Negeri 8 Information and Communication Technology Jayapura on July 25, 2025. The results of the study show that systematic and comprehensive political education is able to increase the understanding of the younger generation about the importance of participation in elections, the right to vote as citizens, as well as the dangers of politicization and irrational mobilization. In conclusion, increasing the political awareness of the younger generation requires synergy between election organizers, the government, and educational institutions to form rational, critical, and actively participating voters in the democratic process.

Abstract

Political disinformation on social media has emerged as a major threat to electoral integrity due to its rapid, large-scale dissemination driven by platform algorithms. This study analyzes the patterns of political disinformation and evaluates the weaknesses of Indonesia’s electoral regulatory framework in addressing digital-era challenges. A Systematic Literature Review was conducted under the PRISMA protocol, selecting 14 peer-reviewed articles published between 2014 and 2024 and synthesizing them thematically. The findings reveal that political disinformation spreads through echo chambers, coordinated buzzer networks, AI-generated manipulative content, and interpersonal distribution in encrypted private channels. At the same time, Indonesia’s electoral regulations show structural limitations, including the absence of a clear legal definition of political disinformation, insufficient digital monitoring authority for election supervisors, lack of rules on political microtargeting and voter data protection, and limited cooperation between regulators and global digital platforms. The study concludes that comprehensive reform is required, involving legal definitional updates, enhanced institutional technical capacity, increased transparency in digital political advertising, and the adoption of multilevel governance frameworks to manage cross-border platform dynamics. These insights provide a foundation for policymakers to develop an electoral regulatory system that is more responsive and resilient in the social media era
