Abstract

This study analyzes the social movement “duit ora payu” (money doesn’t work) as a grassroots rejection of vote buying in the Village Head Election (Pilkades) of Narukan Village, Rembang Regency. This phenomenon is significant because it presents an electoral anomaly in which local communities collectively resisted money politics, contributing to contemporary studies on village democracy and electoral integrity. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this research draws on literature studies and digital data to examine the dynamics surrounding the election. The findings show that the high level of social capital possessed by the elected candidate, Gus Faruq, built through strong social networks, public trust in integrity, and sincere civic engagement, became the decisive factor in defeating opponents suspected of distributing money in a structured manner. His close relationship with prominent religious figures, especially Gus Baha, further strengthened moral credibility and reinforced anti-money politics norms in the community. The study concludes that value-based social capital can effectively counteract corrupt electoral practices and offers a replicable model for promoting clean grassroots elections.

Abstract

Many studies have shown that money has power in political contestation in Indonesia, including research by Burhanuddin Muhtadi, Edward Aspinall, and others. This research finds the opposite: money does not confer power in political contestation in Indonesia. This is based on findings from regional head elections held simultaneously across 270 regions in Indonesia for the 2020-2025 period. Sixty business actors are running as candidates for regional heads and their deputies. Of this number, only 17 business pairs were regional head candidates and won the contest, or 28.3 percent. Forty-three candidate pairs from business backgounds lost the election, representing 71.7 percent of the total. This is relevant to the Kompas survey conducted in July 2020, which showed that 69.4 percent of voters did not pay attention to the money politics distributed by the candidates. Voters still receive the money distributed but vote according to their conscience. Money is not the main factor that determines the victory of a regional head candidate. There are many other factors, such as communication and the closeness of regional head candidates to voters. This research uses analytical qualitative methods, and data collection is carried out by searching for documents in trusted online media, both national and local. It would be no less attractive if further research examined whether the involvement of business actors in regional head elections is more successful when they become political investors or direct candidates.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate public service performance in Nagari Pakan Sinayan by aligning community expectations with service realities. This research employs a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 100 respondents selected through simple random sampling to ensure data representativeness. A structured questionnaire that had undergone validity and reliability testing was used as the primary data collection instrument. The collected data were analyzed using simple linear regression through SPSS to determine the extent to which service quality contributes to community satisfaction. The findings show that service quality has a positive and significant effect on community satisfaction, as indicated by an Adjusted R² value of 31.3% and a significance level of 0.000, which falls below the 0.05 threshold. These results indicate that improvements in responsiveness, reliability, and empathy are essential elements in strengthening public trust and satisfaction with government services. The study concludes that enhancing the competence of nagari government officials and standardizing service procedures are strategic steps needed to align public service performance with community expectations

Abstract

The rapid development of information and communication technology has expanded opportunities for governments to promote participatory, transparent, and accountable governance through e-democracy. This study analyzes the implementation of the PADUKO (Online Population Administration Services) application as a form of digital governance and e-democracy in Padang Panjang City. Using an evaluative case study with a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, and were validated using source triangulation and focus group discussions. The findings show that PADUKO improves service transparency, access to digital information, citizen participation, and inter-agency collaboration in population administration services. However, citizen participation remains largely procedural and consultative, corresponding to the levels of consultation and placation in Arnstein’s ladder of participation. Challenges such as unequal digital literacy, limited infrastructure, and uneven public awareness continue to constrain meaningful engagement. This study concludes that the effectiveness of e-democracy initiatives depends not only on technological readiness but also on supportive institutional frameworks and active community involvement to achieve substantive citizen empowerment in local governance.

Abstract

Order and security are fundamental elements of sustainable regional development. In the Kapanewon Tanjungsari region, Gunungkidul Regency, D.I Yogyakarta, challenges to social stability arise due to complex demographic, geographic, and socio-economic dynamics. The local government has responded to these conditions by launching the Jaga Warga program, a community-based initiative that aims to increase community participation in maintaining order and security in the neighborhood. This study aims to identify and analyze the patterns of order and security issue handling carried out by Jaga Warga as a form of active community participation. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, data was collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with various stakeholders, and analysis of activity documentation. The results of the study show that Jaga Warga adopts a community-based communication pattern, establishes intensive coordination with village officials, and implements preventive strategies rooted in local values such as mutual cooperation, deliberation, and social solidarity. This pattern has proven to be effective in increasing community awareness, strengthening social bonds, and creating a collective sense of security. In addition, the success of the Jaga Warga program is influenced by the structural support of the village government and the active participation of residents in neighborhood security activities. This study recommends strengthening Jaga Warga's institutional capacity through training, funding, and a continuous evaluation system, as well as the need for local government policy support to ensure the sustainability of participatory security practices at the local level

Abstract

This study explores the reasons behind the decline of the Aceh Party in the Banda Aceh City legislative elections over four election cycles (2009, 2014, 2019 and 2024). After an initial success in 2009 with six seats, the party experienced a gradual decline, losing four seats in 2014, two in 2019, and ultimately losing all representation in 2024. This decline raises questions about the internal and external dynamics that influence the resilience of local parties in the post conflict period. The study employs a neo-institutional framework that combines the concepts of party institutionalization and public trust. The approach used is qualitative, using data collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and secondary data analysis. The analysis reveals three main findings. First, the ideological foundation of the Aceh Party is increasingly disconnected from the diverse urban population. Second, its legislative performance fails to project a credible image in the performance of its oversight and public representation functions. Third, internal conflict and leadership changes create a fragile and unstable organizational structure. In conclusion, the party's decline is not only due to changing voter preferences but also reflects deeper institutional challenges, the inability to adapt ideology to local realities, maintain organizational coherence, and meet demands for political accountability. These findings emphasize that identity-rooted parties must adapt their historical narratives to contemporary issues and strengthen transparent governance to remain relevant in the competitive political arena.

Abstract

The complexity of coastal and marine resource management in Indonesia is often caused by overlapping authorities between institutions and sectoral regulatory disharmony. This phenomenon has resulted in legal uncertainty, marginalization of coastal communities, and marine environmental damage. The research aims to reconstruct a governance model that promotes legal certainty, justice, and sustainability. Using a normative legal research method supported by statutory, conceptual, case, and historical approaches, this article analyzes the distribution of authority and its implications for coastal governance in the post-decentralization era. The findings reveal that the withdrawal of maritime authority from districts to provinces has created administrative gaps, weakened local participation, and increased legal uncertainty. This article offers a reconstructive approach based on seven pillars that integrate the principles of the rule of law, balance between central and regional relations, revitalization of assistance tasks, internalization of Pancasila values of justice, strengthening of local institutions, utilization of Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, and mainstreaming of ecological awareness and legal spirituality. Using a normative legal approach, this article argues that the seven pillars constitute a conceptual and operational framework for restructuring a coastal resource management system that is equitable, effective, and sustainable.

Abstract

This research examines the involvement of the business sector in accelerating stunting reduction in Cilegon City in 2024. Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia No. 72 of 2021 on the Acceleration of Stunting Reduction, issued by President Joko Widodo, stipulates that several parties are related to the acceleration of stunting reduction, one of which is the business sector. The active involvement of the business sector is needed to maintain the five pillars of the national strategy. Cilegon City, one of the regions implementing the Acceleration of Stunting Reduction, also actively involves the business sector in stunting reduction activities, one of which is the Healthy Kitchen to Overcome Stunting (DASHAT) program. Using a qualitative method and a case study approach, this research dissects the contribution of the business sector to stunting reduction policy in Cilegon City. Drawing on the concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR), the findings indicate that implementation of the DASHAT program in Cilegon City still faces several obstacles, such as the government’s limited budget. On this basis, the Cilegon City Government collaborates with the business sector to remain committed to reducing stunting despite the limited budget. The involvement of the business sector can be seen in its role as a facilitator that provides funding. In 2024, 39 companies contributed to stunting reduction in Cilegon City, one of which was PT Latinusa Tbk. This research recommends that the acceleration of stunting reduction requires commitment from all stakeholders, including the involvement of the business sector through CSR programs.

Abstract

This examines describes the dynamics of development within the framework of regional autonomy as a form of dominant attributes imposed on the local communities in Ende Regency. Using a qualitative approach, the research analyzes the forms of domination exercised through development implementation under regional autonomy and their implications for the realization of welfare-state principles at the local level. The findings reveal a paradox in the paradigm of local development in Ende Regency: the allocation and distribution of resources are imbalanced, with prioritization leaning heavily toward the bureaucratic dimension rather than the community. Based on these findings, community needs at the grassroots level should be prioritized in development, because community-based development cannot be reduced to a merely technocratic process. Ideally, community development should be rooted in the potential and aspirations of local people; in practice however, it is often trapped in rigid bureaucratic and technocratic approaches. This imbalance indicates that development, which should be grounded in local needs, is instead constrained by elitist and exclusive administrative routines that weaken the welfare-state function of regional autonomy.

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of local authoritarianism in the 2022 village head election in Pucangrejo, Kendal regency, Central Java, where formally democratic procedures were implemented while substantive democratic practice was distorted. Over 4 months of fieldwork, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis within a qualitative case-study design. Informants included candidates, election committee members, and residents. The results indicate that elite actors exploited electoral rules—particularly the Computer Assisted Test, which produced two conflicting declarations of results—to sideline the leading rival candidate. These practices extended to institutional co-optation, as the election committee cooperated with informal elites, and to patronage networks and development narratives deployed to secure loyal voters. Organized opposition to outsider candidates, reinforced by local identity resistance to incorporation, further entrenched exclusionary political norms. The findings suggest that village-level elections risk subordination to elite control, and they point to the need for third-party monitoring and more robust institutional safeguards to protect grassroots democratic autonomy.
