Abstract

General Background: Village autonomy in Indonesia, as regulated in Law No. 6 of 2014 and refined in Law No. 3 of 2024, grants villages significant authority to manage their governance and finances through the Village Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBDes). Specific Background: However, the drafting of village regulations often diverges from positive law, revealing tension between national legal ideals and local political practices. Knowledge Gap: Few studies comprehensively analyze how national legal politics and local compliance interact in shaping legally accountable village governance. Aims: This study aims to analyze the influence of legal politics and compliance with positive law in the formation of village regulations on APBDes. Results: Using a normative juridical method with legislative, conceptual, and sociological approaches, the study finds that compliance with positive law is strongly determined by central legal politics, human resource capacity, and village legal culture. Decentralization has increased autonomy but also introduced risks of legal deviation. Novelty: This research integrates the concept of legal politics with village-level compliance analysis, positioning legal awareness as a moral and structural foundation of governance. Implications: Strengthening legal culture and supervision mechanisms is essential to ensure that village regulations reflect justice, transparency, and public interest rather than local political interests. Highlights: Legal politics directs village regulation formation within the national legal framework. Compliance with positive law depends on human resources and legal culture. Strengthening supervision ensures justice, transparency, and accountability in governance. Keywords: Legal Politics, Positive Law, Village Regulations, APBDes, Legal Compliance

Abstract

General Background: Village governance plays a crucial role in Indonesia’s decentralization framework, serving as a foundation for democratization and local empowerment. Specific Background: Despite legal instruments such as Law Number 6 of 2014 and its amendment in Law Number 3 of 2024, challenges persist in harmonizing the relationship between the Village Consultative Body (BPD) and the Village Head. These challenges manifest in weak institutional synergy, limited transparency, and low community participation. Knowledge Gap: Previous studies have discussed administrative structures but rarely analyzed the juridical-sociological mechanisms necessary to optimize good governance at the village level. Aims: This study aims to examine how the BPD and Village Head can function synergistically within the framework of transparency, accountability, and participatory governance. Results: Findings reveal that effective collaboration depends on clearly defined authority boundaries, strengthened institutional capacity, and adherence to legal and ethical norms that promote transparency and accountability. Novelty: The study integrates normative juridical analysis with sociological interpretation, offering a model of village governance rooted in legal compliance and ethical partnership. Implications: Strengthening the synergy between the BPD and Village Head enhances local democracy, fosters community trust, and transforms village governance into a system that is transparent, accountable, and participatory Highlights: Strengthening synergy between BPD and Village Head ensures balanced authority and effective governance. Transparency and accountability serve as the ethical foundation for public trust and participation. Legal awareness and institutional capacity are vital for realizing sustainable village democracy. Keywords: Village Consultative Body, Village Head, Good Governance, Transparency, Accountability
