Abstract

Article history: This research aims to analyze how populism weakens democratic practices in Indonesia and formulate solutions to keep democracy healthy. With Friedrich Nietzsche's existentialism perspective, this research highlights the importance of individual freedom and responsibility in choosing qualified leaders. The research uses a legal method with a legislative and philosophical approach. The results show that Indonesian democracy, which is synonymous with the division of power between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, is often distorted by the influence of populism. Elections held every five years to elect people's representatives and executive leaders at various levels are often used by political elites for their interests by exploiting people's emotions through rhetoric and identity politics. This condition is rooted in the criteria for nominating leaders in Law No. 7/2017, which opens space for the emergence of populism and obscures the purpose of democracy “of the people, by the people, and for the people”. To overcome this, the research recommends revising the regulation by adding competency criteria based on the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) merit system for prospective executive leaders. This strategy is a practical implementation of existentialism in legal politics to maintain the quality of democracy while strengthening political education for the community.

Abstract

This study explores the pattern of financial cooperation within the families of fishermen’s crew members (ABK) in Kedungrejo Village, Muncar Subdistrict, Banyuwangi Regency. These families face unstable economic conditions, as the husband's work is affected by seasonal changes, weather, and lunar cycles based on the Javanese calendar. This uncertainty leads to shared financial responsibilities between spouses. The research aims to describe the cooperative relationship between husband and wife in meeting household needs and analyze it using Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory. Using an empirical juridical method with a socio-juridical approach, data were collected through interviews and documentation. The findings reveal that the cooperation is influenced by the wife’s willingness to help and the family's unstable financial background. The wife’s involvement is based on awareness, responsibility, and a desire to support family well-being, particularly when fishing activities are halted. Although the husband remains the main provider, the wife plays an active role without neglecting her domestic duties. According to Maslow’s theory, family needs are fulfilled gradually, from basic needs to esteem. However, self-actualization remains unfulfilled due to financial limitations. These families exhibit strong, adaptive partnerships with mutual support, effective communication, and appreciation of each other’s roles.
