Abstract

This article examines the practice of political articulation of power carried out by a Village Head during their leadership. The practice of articulating power is ethical but also political because the public understands that what is done is a sign of power politics that can be said to be "unique" and anti-mainstream. In the current political tradition, community improvement actions are often carried out because of disappointment or dissatisfaction with someone's leadership. On the contrary, in Malang, there was mass action, but they forced the incumbent to be willing to advance again in the political contestation in the second period of the election. This study aims to reveal the meaning of the practice of power articulation that becomes a political practice. This study uses a qualitative method with a purposive sampling technique on four informants whom the researchers chose based on data validity. Therefore, several research results were found using qualitative research analysis, data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions, including 1) blusukan and absorbing aspirations, 2) light-hearted leaders, and 3) leaders of the people. From here, the markers of charismatic leadership were articulated by Gaguk during his tenure as the village head of Kaliarsi Villa.

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of Singosari residents' resistance to the Singhasari Special Economic Zone (SEZ) project, focusing on the discursive mechanisms that construct meanings of exploitation, local identity, and ecological injustice. The researcher used Van Dijk's theory-based Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) that integrates text triangulation, social cognition, and context. The primary data consisted of protest banners from residents and narratives from community leaders, including Ki Ardhi Purbo Antono and Fatkul Ulum (Gus Ulum), while supporting data were obtained from international literature on environmental injustice and the failure of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). The results show that the narrative "SEZ = Capitalism Exploiting the Area" and the Javanese-language banners and the identity of Islamic boarding school students (santri) function as tools for deconstructing the discourse of state development. The discursive mechanisms were identified through the construction of binary oppositions (business district vs. Islamic boarding school, people vs. capital), the framing of structural injustice and environmental injustice, and the formation of collective consciousness through critical cognition of policy. These findings confirm that CDA effectively exposes the structural injustices hidden within the discourse of "rapid economic growth" and emphasizes the need for inclusive, participatory development that is oriented toward environmental sustainability and social justice.
