Abstract

This research analyzes the judicial implications of the Constitutional Court’s rulings on structured, systematic, and massive (TSM) violations in Indonesian elections, and their impact on democratic integrity. Using a socio-legal approach, it combines legal analysis with social science perspectives to examine how the Court interprets and applies TSM principles within a broader socio-political context. The study finds that while the Constitutional Court plays a pivotal role in upholding electoral integrity and safeguarding democratic values, significant challenges remain. Chief among these is the difficulty of proving TSM violations, which are often entangled with powerful political interests. These challenges can weaken public trust, hinder accountability, and contribute to a democratic deficit. The study concludes that more robust judicial mechanisms and clearer evidentiary standards are needed to ensure fair adjudication and strengthen Indonesia’s democratic institutions.

Abstract

This study examines the filling of public offices with special criteria, as outlined in the constitution, which applies specifically to Constitutional Court judges. However, the term "statesman" is not explicitly defined in the criteria. Progressive law, de facto, emphasizes the substantive dimension of justice in the pursuit of upholding the right to justice and democracy. This paper explores the reconstruction of recruitment and external supervision of constitutional judges, focusing on the qualifications of statesmen from a progressive legal perspective. It also discusses the relevance of the progressive legal understanding of statesman qualifications to the independence of the Constitutional Court in Indonesia. The method employed in this research is normative juridical, conducted through literature review. The findings suggest that constitutional decisions and policies should be based on a justice dimension grounded in progressive law. The qualification of a statesman can be assessed through a track record of daily actions and relationships with the broader environment. By applying statesman qualifications to constitutional judges, it signals their capability and compatibility in ensuring the independence of institutions that prioritize justice in state governance and public administration.
