Abstract

Simultaneous general elections throughout Indonesia can have a substantial environmental impact. The primary environmental challenge, which repeatedly causes problems, is the inadequate management of waste from campaign props. Waste management for campaign materials has not been specifically regulated, leading to policy inconsistencies across regions. Currently, managing waste from campaign props falls under the responsibility of Regional Apparatus Organizations, which process it for reuse where possible. Waste that cannot be reused must not be disposed of in Final Disposal Sites (TPA). The limited number of landfills and waste recycling sites in each region is insufficient compared to the volume of campaign props used in simultaneous elections. The Province of Bali took the initiative to implement green elections from the initial planning stage through to the end of election implementation. The General Elections Commission (KPU) urged contestants' campaigns to avoid plastic billboards, promoting social media and non-plastic alternatives instead. This green election initiative was realized through policies enacted by the Regional Government, including the Governor's Regulation on reducing plastic waste. It exemplifies cross-sector collaboration as a strategy to mitigate the ecological impact of election implementation. This study analyzes collaborative efforts and proposes policy recommendations for realizing green elections in Indonesia. This research employs a qualitative method with an empirical juridical approach, focusing on the implementation of green elections in Bali Province during the 2024 Regional Elections.

Abstract

Indonesia is a state based on the rule of law, and one of the characteristics of such a state is that all policies issued by the government must be grounded in applicable legal norms. The hierarchy of legislation in Indonesia does not consist solely of laws (undang-undang); at the lowest level, there are still district/municipal regulations (peraturan daerah kabupaten/kota). Indonesia is experiencing a crisis in the legislative process, which has led to several laws and regulations receiving criticism and even rejection from the public. This situation is alarming, especially if the legislative process continues in this manner in the future. Law, which should function as social control, has instead become a source of new problems and is ineffective because it fails to accommodate the interests of society. This study is qualitative research using a sociological legal approach, focusing on understanding the procedures for forming laws and regulations using the Policy Screening Tools in the Secretariat General of the Provincial DPRD in Bali and Aceh. Policy Screening Tools serve as a policy analysis instrument that can act as a parameter to determine whether a draft regional regulation is suitable or unsuitable to be enacted. Not all draft laws and regional regulations undergo screening—only those draft laws and regulations that face contention among the legislature, the executive, and the public are subjected to the screening process.
