Abstract

The implementation of the 2020 Makassar Mayoral Election shows that the level of political participation is still low. This condition needs to be evaluated by reviewing the extent of the role of various parties in encouraging increased community political participation. Political education is the main key in building public political awareness. The Indonesian Youth National Committee (KNPI) of Makassar City has a role in increasing voter participation through political education. The purpose of this research is to find out the political education of the National Committee of Indonesian Youth (KNPI) Makassar City in increasing voter participation. This research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, field observations, documentation, literature studies and online media. The results showed that the Makassar City KNPI has a role in increasing public political awareness, especially among young voters, through neutral and independent political education. This is realized through cooperation with the KPU and Bawaslu, board development, and physical and digital socialization efforts. However, effectiveness still faces various challenges, such as political apathy, distrust of the system, lack of method development, lack of youth representation in local politics, and the stigma of organizational independence. Therefore, there is a need for greater collaboration and innovative approaches to overcome barriers to youth political participation more effectively.

Abstract

This research discusses the phenomenon of cyberpolitics as a digital democratic space with a focus on political campaigns through Instagram in the 2024 Makassar Pilwalkot. Social media, especially Instagram, is used intensely by candidate pairs to build a political image and convey work programs visually to the public. On the other hand, millennials, as the dominant social media users, utilise the platform to access political information, interact directly with candidates, and determine voting preferences. Through a literature study approach and content analysis, this research shows that digital space has great potential in expanding horizontal political participation. However, the effectiveness of cyberspace as a democratic arena cannot be separated from challenges such as symbolic participation, algorithm dominance, and digital literacy gaps. Instagram has been proven to facilitate the political participation of the younger generation. However, it has not been able to fully bridge the inequality of political representation due to digital exclusion. By applying the theories of agenda setting, political efficacy, and networked public sphere, this study concludes that the quality of political communication, information disclosure, and the critical capacity of digital citizens largely determine the success of digital democracy in cyberspace.

Abstract

The recurrence of single candidate regional head elections in North Bengkulu and Ngawi Regencies in the 2020 and 2024 elections raises questions about the effectiveness of institutional reform in expanding local electoral competition. Although Constitutional Court Decision Number 60/PUU-XXII/2024 lowered the nomination threshold and theoretically opened wider opportunities for political parties to nominate alternative candidates, this study shows that such institutional change did not automatically alter the configuration of electoral contests in the two regions. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, utilizing secondary data from official election documents, Constitutional Court decisions, laws and regulations, academic publications, and media reports related to regional head elections in North Bengkulu and Ngawi Regencies. The analysis employs the perspective of political party pragmatism and the office-seeking orientation in coalition formation. The results of the study show that the recurrence of single-candidate elections was shaped by the consolidation of political party support into large coalitions behind dominant candidates who possessed strong political capital, incumbency advantages, wider political networks, and higher electability. Under these conditions, political parties, including smaller parties, tended to prioritize electoral victory and access to power rather than promote alternative candidates. As a result, coalition building became increasingly pragmatic and contributed to the weakening of electoral competition across two consecutive electoral periods. This study shows that the recurrence of single-candidate elections is better understood not merely as an institutional issue, but as a reflection of pragmatic political party behavior in local electoral politics.
