Abstract

The connection between the state and Islam is a dynamic and important theme in Indonesian political discourse, a situation inseparable from some Muslims' aspirations for Islam to become the ideology (foundation) of the state. In the important political events that have occurred, such polemics have often emerged and become sources of serious political tensions.Carool Kersten's book, an Indonesian-language translation of Islam in Indonesia: The Contest for Society, Ideas, and Values (2015), examines the contestations of discourses and actors during Indonesia's Reform Era within the relationship of the state and religion (Islam). This book comprehensively explains how two groups—progressive Muslims and conservative (reactionary) Muslims—have continued their predecessors' struggles. It focuses specifically on the first group, as well as the diverse sub-discourses included therein.

Abstract

This paper aims to uncover the process of public policies formulation, specifically regarding poverty reduction strategies and social protection in Toba Regency, North Sumatra. The poverty reduction policy that is the focus of this research consists of three Regional Regulations (Perda), which were only issued in 2019, after the district was established (autonomy) since 1999, namely: Regional Regulation No. 2/2019 concerning the Implementation of Social Welfare, Regional Regulation No. 10/2019 concerning Protection and Fulfillment of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and Regional Regulation Number policy formulation11/2019 concerning the Implementation of Elderly Welfare. This qualitative research concludes that the process and formulation of poverty reduction policies in Toba Regency took place technocratically and elitist. First, the three Regional Regulations are considered as "derived regulations", the operationalization of a higher level of statutory regulation (in this case government laws and regulations), which are considered to have clear scope and conception. Secondly, the three regional regulations were drafted at the end of the government (executive) period and national legislative elections which have implications and the potential for ineffective implementation of policies and as well as minimal oversight of the legislative majority which is not elected in the next period. This factor caused suspicion towards the three Regional Regulations to be solely formulated for the pragmatic interests of the incumbent regents for the sake of popularity and electability in the next regional elections. Third, there is a lack of public participation because these three regional regulations have policy targets for socially, culturally and politically vulnerable and voiceless groups, as well as the lack of support from civil society organizations. Based on the findings above, the policy recommendation put forward is that public involvement in the process and formulation of this Perda is not merely administrative in nature, but an active sequence from the setting agenda to the formulation.

Abstract

This article analyses the contestation of 'welfare' discourses in Indonesia since the fall of the New Order, employing the discourse theory offered by Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe in their Hegemony and Socialist Strategy (2001 [1985]). Its main argument is that welfare is an “empty signifier”, the meaning of which may shift or change as a consequence of the unfinished discursive contestations of various subject positions. This article identifies four central discourses, or master signifiers, between 1998 and 2015 that serve as “nodal points” in the hegemonisation of welfare: "Social Safety Net", "Creative Innovation" versus "Electoral Strategy", "Sustainable Development", and "Right of the People and Constitutional Obligation of the State". The dominant and hegemonic meaning of welfare, understood here as a “nodal point”, is only temporary; it is partially fixed, while at the same time experiencing ongoing discursive contestation. It is, is being, and will be subjected to unending dislocation.

Abstract

Jenis Penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif dengan tipe deskriptif. Teknik pengumpulan data penelitian menggunakan wawancara mendalam dan dokumentasi. Wawancara penelitian ini melibatkan 10 informan yakni, satu orang calon kepala desa milenial sebagai informan kunci, delapan pemilih milenial sebagai informan utama dan satu orang masyarat sebagai informan pendukung. Peneliti juga menganalisis data suara pada Pilkades, guna mendapatkan jawaban atas permasalahan penelitian. Melalui pendekatan sosiologis, psikologis, dan rasional, penelitian ini merinci alasan dan pertimbangan pemilih milenial dalam menentukan pilihannya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa banyak faktor yang memengaruhi preferensi pemilih, seperti faktor umur, kepribadian, pengalaman, sikap terbuka terhadap masukan dari generasi lebih tua, dan keterlibatan dalam kehidupan masyarakat menjadi pertimbangan utama pemilih milenial. Selain itu, ada ketidakpercayaan terhadap kemampuan kandidat milenial dalam memahami dan menjalankan norma adat yang masih sangat dihargai dalam masyarakat Desa Dolok Margu. Analisis mendalam menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan ini bukan semata-mata karena ketidaksetujuan terhadap visi atau gagasan kandidat Milenial, tetapi lebih kepada pertimbangan umur yang masih muda dan belum berpengalaman dapat menyebabkan kesalahan dalam pengambilan keputusan dan kurangnya kemampuan dalam mengatasi masalah yang kompleks.

Abstract

This research aims: 1) to find out the rights of persons with disabilities are fulfilled in the Damri Bus and Trans Metro Deli Bus transportation services in Medan City; 2) to find out the constraints and barriers experienced by people with disabilities in accessing Damri Bus and Trans Metro Deli Bus transportation in the city. Research data was obtained using observation, interviews, documentation and focused group discussions. The results are as follows: Damri Bus and Trans Metro Deli Bus transportation is not yet disability friendly so that disability rights in public transportation services have not been fulfilled. A number of obstacles faced by people with disabilities include: narrow and high bus doors, damaged bus stops, sidewalks that are disjointed and do not lead to the bus stops, unavailability of braille letters, and unavailability of travel routes at each bus stop. And this is actually rooted in a policy-making paradigm that is not yet disability-friendly. However, in general, the Trans Metro Deli Bus service is still better and disabilities-friendly than the Damri Bus.
