Abstract

Humans are monodualistic beings who have roles as individuals and social beings. As individuals, humans are given the intellect, thoughts, and feelings to develop themselves and meet their life needs independently. As social beings, humans live in society, nation, and state, so they need each other. In modern society, various organizations have emerged, including government organizations that according to the political trias consist of the legislature, executive, and judiciary. At the highest executive level there is a president, while at the village level there is a village head. The Village Head, who is democratically and traditionally elected, plays an extension of the community to regulate, maintain, and motivate residents in the development process. The success of village development is highly dependent on the leadership of the Village Head in mobilizing community participation. As God's creatures with the highest degree, humans have the responsibility as caliphs on earth to maintain the balance and continuity of life. In everyday life, the essence of human beings as individuals and social beings is obvious; When faced with difficulties, human beings need the help of others, while in personal affairs, they tend to maintain privacy as a form of individuality. This balance between individual and social roles is the basis for the progress of society, including at the village level, where cooperation between leaders and citizens is the key to the success of sustainable development.

Abstract

According to the Big Indonesian Dictionary (KBBI) and Wikipedia, politics (from the Greek politikos, meaning “of, for, or relating to citizens”) is the process of forming and distributing power in society, including decision-making, particularly within the state, and represents an effort to combine various definitions known in political science as the art and science of achieving power through constitutional and non-constitutional means. Politics can be viewed from different perspectives: as citizens’ efforts to realize the common good (Aristotle’s classical theory), as the administration of government and the state, as activities aimed at gaining and maintaining power in society, and as the process of formulating and implementing public policy, all of which require understanding key elements such as political power,  legitimacy, political systems, political behavior, participation, processes, and the dynamics of political parties; meanwhile, Hans J. Morgenthau in Politics Among Nations defines politics as a struggle for power. Local wisdom, according to the KBBI, is the maturity of society at the local community level, reflected in attitudes, behaviors, and perspectives that support the development of local potential and resources (both material and non-material) as a force for realizing positive change and contributing to national strength for a more advanced and modern nation based on the ideology of Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution.
