Abstract

This study aims to discuss the perceptions of auditors and auditees on public sector performance audits. This study analyzes how social processes and interactions are both in the performance audit process. They are in case of changes in the auditor's role in the future, which have the potential to cause problems of independence. The other is that the benefits and impacts of performance audit results have not been felt significantly. By using a qualitative approach, this study analyzes how the perceptions and relations of the two actors in the performance audit. In-depth and structured interview techniques are used as data collection methods from participants from auditors and auditees. Auditee's response was also analyzed to determine the extent of their resistance to the actions of auditors and their perception of the benefits of performance audits. The results of the study show that performance audits have not given a significant impact on policy performance improvements. There are differences in perceptions about expectations for the role of the auditor and the provision of recommendations that are more solutive. A significant difference in perception is also shown in the auditor's understanding of the auditee's business processes. It is due to the issues in the auditor's qualifications and experience that are influenced by their educational background. Other findings are the potential disruption of auditor independence due to lack of operationalization of the concept of independence and the amount of pressure from the auditee.

Abstract

Reform in decentralization and village democratization can be seen in the involvement of villagers in the policy-making process, both in the economic, political and rural development fields. In the community planning process there is widespread (participatory) community involvement. The involvement of citizens in village development is one part of the development goals. Equality, justice, non-violence, tolerance, inclusiveness, transparency, accountability and responsiveness are principles that must be put forward in the village development planning process. The involvement of citizens in village development planning and budgeting aims to ensure and identify what should be the development priorities, policies, programs and activities that require budget or resources. By using a descriptive qualitative approach, this research is expected to be able to understand more deeply about inclusive and responsive democracy carried out by village government institutions and the involvement of villagers' participation. This is one of the first steps that should be taken by the village government in building democracy at the village level.

Abstract

Instead of studying the virtual space using the Political Public Sphere concept, this study adopts the Literary Public Sphere point of view to examine and narrate the nature of a Cultural Public Sphere in social media. The researchers see interactivity in social media as an articulation of expression involving emotions and aesthetics (affective communication). Using the mixed method of Topic Modelling, Social Network Analysis (SNA), and Discourse Analysis in the case of the presence of the #JogjaOraDidol hashtag in Twitter, this study conclude that the Cultural Public Sphere has three dimensions of Public Sphere as introduced by Dahlgren (2005). The dynamic of inclusivity for anyone to express themselves and to engage in public issues discussions indicates that space is inclusive not only because of the technical support of the media but also because of the commitment of its users (structural dimension). The emergence of three virtual communities (fans, artists and activists) that develop a collective identity represents a subset of the real local population and demonstrates the ideal role taking of the representational aspect of Public Sphere. The interactional one is indicated by the discourse constructed using reflexive but straightforward symbols represent the interaction between users and the meaning that users do to the contents of the media used. Meanwhile, the real action show of the discourse develops virtually does not entrap the user in pseudo-empowerment. As an implication, using specific parameter, notably the hashtag identifies a social movement, policymakers can use data from social media in the agenda-setting process. Additionally, in the context of #JogjaOraDidol, soft data can also be used to evaluate the moratorium policy of granting the hotel's construction permit.

Abstract

Development planning reform retains a significantly prominent position as it determines the success of development particularly in developing countries. However, implementing development planning reform is no easy feat as various obstacles ensue. This study was conducted in the Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia to identify these specific obstacles through a content analysis of regional development planning documents, provided along with the support of relevant literature study. The results of the study show that the obstacles encountered were quite complex, namely the low capacity of regional government, failure in implementing principles of good governance and bureaucratic reform, and the intensity of political elites’ dominance in the region who utilize development planning as a means of achieving their interests. Affirmative policies to enhance regional capacity, to rearrange regulations and limit political party dominance, and to reconfigure the regional head’s position as a political functionary and personnel administrator are thus recommended to address these issues.

Abstract

This article discusses the role dominance female gender in the public domain compared to male. So far, gender relations always place female in subordinate conditions and in one condition, male dominate. Minimal gender relations are assessed from the opposite condition. Male is subordinated and female dominate, where male is more vulnerable than female. The purpose of this article is to analyze the vulnerability of male in the labor family in the state's response to female labor protection policies. The research method used is a mixed method, an approach that combines quantitative methods with survey and qualitative approaches with in-depth interviews. The results of this study indicate new gender relations in the family of workers. Female workers become the main breadwinner, gain trust in financial institutions, and develop economic networks through the plasma industry by empowering the surrounding community and accessibility to work. Meanwhile, male is in vulnerable positions with limited employment opportunities, lower income, and feel ashamed of domestic roles. Besides, state response in public policy is less favorable to male in employment; countries in responding to the implications of the emergence of new gender relations still assume female domination in the domestic sphere. In view of this, the local government of Purbalingga Regency should do the following; a) develop family care policies by assuming new female gender roles that are more dominant in the public sphere. b) Build awareness of the advancement of female as a positive thing in realizing a harmonious family by the role of new males who have high gender awareness.

Abstract

Collaborative governance has, currently, become an alternative to resolving public issues, wherein the government is suggested to collaborate with cross-sector organizations. Although several collaborative efforts developed by the government were reported to have failed, there are a number of successful collaborations established to resolve various issues. The main objective of this study is to analyze why did the collaboration process of the off-site anoa conservation through the Anoa Breeding Center (ABC) succeed in increasing the anoa population. This study employed the qualitative descriptive methodology. The data collection techniques used were literature study, observation, and interviews with stakeholders involved in ABC activities. The study results show that the collaboration in managing ABC was successful and it effectively resolved the problems confronted in the off-site anoa conservation due to active role of the administrators in realizing extensive participation, establishing and maintaining trust, as well as running a transparent process among the actors. The established collaboration is supported by a leadership that facilitated the implementation of the collaboration process. The collaboration is carried out formally as stipulated in the MoU made, as well as informally on the basis of the trust developed. The determining factors in the success of the collaboration in the off-site anoa conservation at ABC are the presence of process transparency, clear basic values, scope of actors involved, and facilitative leadership in the collaboration effort.
