<![CDATA[This study stems from the problem of the low effectiveness of political education conducted by political parties in Indonesia, even though its implementation already has a juridical basis in various laws and regulations. Political education, which should serve to enhance citizens’ political awareness and participation, is often carried out merely to fulfill administrative obligations and as a tool for image-building, so that it produces no substantive impact on improving citizens’ political literacy. This research employs a normative method with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Primary data are drawn from regulations governing political parties’ political-education functions, while secondary data consist of academic literature in the form of books and journal articles. The analysis is conducted by examining the effectiveness of regulatory implementation, comparing it with political-education practices in other countries, and formulating strengthening strategies grounded in the values of siyasah syar’iyyah. The findings show that Indonesia’s legal framework for political education still prioritizes administrative compliance over the quality and sustainability of the educational process itself. Therefore, this article proposes the concept of Comprehensive Political Education (CPE), integrating the theories of Political Socialization and Civic Education to cultivate citizens who are aware, critical, and participatory. The principles of justice (al-‘adl) and public welfare (maslahah) are positioned as normative foundations for designing substantive political-education policies oriented toward the public good. Through the implementation of the Annual Comprehensive Political Education Cycle (ACPEC), political education is expected to proceed continuously and free from electoral interests, thereby strengthening the quality of a participatory and civilized democracy.]]>
