Abstract

This study examines the role of the mass base in Fahira Idris' victory in the 2024 election. The rationale for this research stems from Fahira Idris's consistent victories in the three election periods she participated in. The theory used is the patron-client theory. The results show that the four indicators analyzed through the electoral and non-electoral participation approaches are proven to be interconnected and form a strong foundation for Fahira's relationship with Bang Japar. The imbalance of power is evident in Fahira's position as a provider of resources and political access. Personal ties are built through informal communication and symbolic attention that foster emotional loyalty. Dependence is evident in access to Fahira's programs and political support that Bang Japar utilizes. The reciprocal relationship is adaptive and pragmatic, but remains based on social loyalty norms that strengthen the stability of the relationship

Abstract

Program kemitraan plasma kelapa sawit merupakan salah satu model pembangunan ekonomi perdesaan berbasis agribisnis yang melibatkan kerja sama antara perusahaan inti dan petani. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis implementasi kemitraan plasma di Desa Air Dua, Kabupaten Sukamara, Kalimantan Tengah, serta melihat kontribusinya terhadap kesejahteraan masyarakat desa. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif dengan teknik studi kasus, melalui wawancara terhadap kepala desa, pengurus KUD, perusahaan inti, dan petani plasma. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa seluruh proses pengelolaan mulai dari pembukaan lahan, pemeliharaan kebun, pemanenan, pembiayaan, hingga pencatatan hasil dan utang sepenuhnya dijalankan oleh perusahaan inti. Namun, perusahaan menunjukkan keterbukaan melalui rapat evaluasi bulanan yang melibatkan KUD sebagai representasi petani. Meskipun hubungan kemitraan ini menunjukkan pola yang relatif stabil dan transparan, posisi tawar petani masih lemah. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan penguatan kapasitas kelembagaan KUD dan literasi ekonomi petani agar kemitraan dapat berjalan lebih adil dan berkelanjutan.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of digitalized population administration services through the ‘Lontong Balap’ applications implemented by the Surabaya City Population and Civil Registration Office (Dispendukcapil). The research uses a descriptive qualitative method with an approach based on public service theory, service effectiveness theory, and government digital transformation theory. The findings show that both applications have positively impacted the efficiency and accessibility of population administration services in Surabaya. This aligns with the principles of digitalizing public services, emphasizing convenience, speed, and transparency. However, the study also identifies challenges, such as difficulties faced by the elderly in accessing digital services. Infrastructure factors also present significant barriers, particularly regarding internet network availability and skilled human resources to operate the digital system. Therefore, enhancing staff training and strengthening digital infrastructure at the sub-district level are necessary to ensure smooth application operations.

Abstract

Artikel ini membahas dinamika proses kandidasi di internal partai politik dalam Pilkada 2024 Kabupaten Situbondo. Studi ini menggunakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus, memfokuskan analisis pada mekanisme seleksi calon kepala daerah oleh partai-partai politik dan sejauh mana proses tersebut mencerminkan prinsip-prinsip demokrasi internal. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas partai di Situbondo menerapkan sistem kandidasi yang cenderung eksklusif, dengan dominasi elite partai dan minimnya partisipasi anggota akar rumput. Mekanisme kandidasi dilihat oleh empat indikator utama: syarat kandidat, selektor, desentralisasi, dan pengambilan keputusan. Di sisi lain, terdapat variasi dalam mekanisme kandidasi antar partai, terutama dalam hal keterlibatan kelompok pesantren, pembiayaan politik, dan intervensi dari pusat. PKB dan PPP memperlihatkan pola kandidasi berbasis kultur religius dan elite pesantren, sementara Golkar dan PDI-P menunjukkan pola sentralistik dengan dominasi keputusan partai di tingkat pusat. Studi ini menyoroti pentingnya memperkuat demokrasi internal partai politik untuk meningkatkan kualitas demokrasi lokal dan memperluas ruang partisipasi dalam pemilihan kepala daerah.

Abstract

The realm of diplomacy has been transforming over time. Diplomacy is no longer limited to economic diplomacy, diplomacy to achieve peace in times of conflict, and diplomacy using hard power. It also extends to soft power diplomacy, such as halal tourism diplomacy. In recent years, Aceh, as one of Indonesia’s special provinces, has increasingly strengthened its halal tourism diplomacy to develop sustainable tourism in attracting tourists. Consequently, researchers proposed the research problem: “What are the diplomatic strategies implemented by the Provincial Government of Aceh in promoting halal tourism to develop sustainable tourism in Aceh?” Using a qualitative research method, researchers collected and analyzed data from literature sources, including official reports from the Aceh Provincial Government, journal articles, books, and newspapers. This research was elaborated using public diplomacy theory and the concept of halal tourism. From the data analysis, the researcher found that the halal tourism diplomacy strategy can be more optimal through collaboration between the Aceh Provincial Government and the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy in creating clear regulations. Furthermore, the Provincial Government of Aceh can involve more stakeholders and community leaders as non-state actors who best understand the tourism area itself. This partnership will unite perceptions between state and non-state actors in developing halal tourism in Aceh to further attract tourists to Aceh.

Abstract

This article examines the role of elderly women (grannies) or female elders in transmitting gender values and social reproduction in Nisam District, North Aceh. In Aceh's religious and deeply rooted society, elderly women play a central role as guardians of values, caregivers, and intergenerational socio-cultural agents. Using an ethnographic approach, this study examines the daily interactions between grandmothers and grandchildren in multigenerational families. Data were obtained through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and narrative documentation. The results show that elderly women not only reproduce traditional gender values such as obedience and gentleness for women, and responsibility and leadership for men, but also act as adaptive agents capable of reinterpreting these values in line with social change. Their role as cultural brokers positions elderly women as a bridge between traditional values and modernity, thus contributing to the sustainability of Acehnese cultural identity amidst globalization.

Abstract

This study employs the party institutionalization perspective to examine the increase in the vote share of the Golkar Party in Sungai Penuh City in the 2024 elections. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 12 informants consisting of party elites, legislative candidates, and grassroots cadres, and complemented by document analysis. The findings of this study explain that the increase in the vote of the Sungai Penuh City Golkar party in the 2024 elections was due to good institutionalization factors as shown by three indicators ranging from roots in society ((the party has a mass base and a strong image in the community), level of organization (organizational tools that consistently work for the benefit of the party at every level of management) and coherence (cohesiveness of party members). However, there is a note on the autonomy indicator (independent in decision-making) that, although the Golkar party has internal rules that uphold autonomy and independence, the practice in the field shows that decisions are still dominated by the party's internal elite in a closed manner. Therefore, while institutionalization appears to have contributed to Golkar’s electoral performance in Sungai Penuh City, the findings should be understood as indicative rather than strictly causal, as other contextual and political factors may also have played a role. This study contributes to enriching the literature on party institutionalization at the local level in post-Reformasi Indonesia, particularly in the period leading up to the 2024 elections. Nonetheless, the study has limitations, including its single-case design, the potential bias inherent in elite-based interviews, and the limited generalizability of its findings beyond the specific local context examined.

Abstract

Abstrak: Penelitian ini membahas tentang adanya kontradiksi kewenangan dalam kebijakan dalam penanganan pandemi COVID-19 antara Pemerintah Pusat dan Pemerintah Provinsi DKI Jakarta. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi kepustakaan (literature review) dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa adanya perbedaan perspektif dalam tahap formulasi sampai implementasi kebijakan penanganan pandemi COVID-19. Pemerintah Pusat cenderung membuat kebijakan untuk menunjang sektor perekonomian sedangkan kebijakan yang dibuat Pemerintah Provinsi DKI Jakarta beriorientasi pada kesehatan masyarakat. Buruknya birokrasi, tidak sinkronnya peraturan, dan kurangnya kolaborasi menyebabkan terbentuknya sikap egosektoral pada lembaga pemerintahan yang mengakibatkan lambatnya penanganan COVID-19 sehingga keamanan masyarakat terancam. Kata kunci: COVID-19, Kebijakan, Keamanan Manusia, Pemerintah Daerah, Pemerintah Pusat

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh media sosial terhadap praktik kerja jurnalis media digital-born serta bagaimana jurnalis memaknai peran profesional mereka dalam konteks demokrasi digital. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi kasus melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap jurnalis yang bekerja di media digital-born di Indonesia. Data dianalisis menggunakan perangkat lunak NVivo 12 Plus melalui tahapan open coding dan axial coding untuk mengidentifikasi tema-tema utama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa media sosial diposisikan sebagai infrastruktur awal untuk memantau isu politik dan dinamika opini publik, namun tidak dijadikan sebagai sumber legitimasi informasi. Di tengah tekanan kecepatan dan viralitas, jurnalis tetap menekankan pentingnya verifikasi, penilaian editorial, dan tanggung jawab etis. Temuan ini juga menunjukkan adanya negosiasi berkelanjutan antara logika platform media sosial dan nilai-nilai normatif jurnalisme, khususnya dalam agenda setting serta penanganan hoaks dan disinformasi politik. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa jurnalisme digital-born merupakan proses reposisi peran jurnalisme sebagai institusi demokrasi dalam menjaga kualitas diskursus politik di ruang publik digital

Abstract

This research analyzes the transformation of social media usage patterns and their impact on digital political participation in Indonesia. Through secondary data analysis from various official sources during the 2019-2024 period, the research reveals fundamental changes in how Indonesian society interacts with digital political space. Using a political behavioralism perspective, this study explores four main dimensions: transformation of social media usage patterns, demographic segmentation of users, duration and intensity of usage, and usage motivation in the context of political participation. The results show that social media penetration reaching 73.7% has created a complex digital public sphere, where WhatsApp (89.2%), YouTube (72.3%), and Facebook (70.2%) become dominant platforms. Demographic segmentation analysis reveals significant differences in platform preferences across generations, with Generation X more inclined toward YouTube (85%) and Facebook (77%). Average usage duration of 3.25 hours per day creates more fluid and personal patterns of political participation. Diverse usage motivations, from entertainment to networking, have transformed how society engages in political processes. These findings contribute to understanding new dynamics of political participation in the digital era and their implications for contemporary Indonesian democracy.
