Abstract

Indonesia is a state of law. In essence, everyone must follow the existing rules. It started off well small to large. Likewise, what is meant by the Indonesian state is a democratic country where the center of power is in the hands of the people. Elections are a form of progress to prioritize the community and create leaders with a high sense of unity and justice. Overall, elections are a sign of supreme power in the hands of the people. Through elections, the assertion of national power can be achieved with some of the powers and rights of the public over representatives of the government and parliament. But in fact, violations often occur both in the Pilkada process and in parliamentary elections. These violations included fraudulent campaign activities in the form of donations of money and goods to tempt the public to vote for a candidate during the election. In a democracy, the development of money politics slowly undermines the principle, because the people's voice can be redeemed with money.

Abstract

The democratic system adopted by Indonesia gives a central role to political parties as the main instrument in realizing a democratic state life. This research aims to reveal the political forces that often occur in the legislative process of making regulations in Indonesia. Using a qualitative-descriptive interpretive method and a phenomenological approach, this research explores the political forces involved in legislative making by the executive and legislature. The results show that in regulation-making, there is a power gap between the executive and the legislature. The political power of the executive tends to be dominant because they are the highest power holder. It cannot be denied that there are interests of actors in it who seek to maintain and expand their power. The formation of legal products involves the influence of political power through political processes in state institutions that have authority and power. In addition, this research reveals the political dynamics that occur in the legislative process, where the interaction between the executive and the legislature is a crucial factor. This political process includes negotiations, compromises, and competing interests between the various parties involved. Thus, regulation-making is not only the result of technical considerations and community needs, but also influenced by the dynamics of political power at the local level.

Abstract

This article focuses on discussing the polemic about the establishment Church in Cilegon which has never been resolved. Minority communities are hampered in realizing religious freedom. They are subjugated by cultural, social and political conditions and groups who firmly oppose the Church's presence in Cilegon. We use descriptive qualitative research methods which are useful for exploring the main problem in a holistic manner. The theory used is freedom and plurality by Hannah Arendt. This research show that the concept of plurality and freedom of worship for non-Muslim communities has not been fully implemented due to pressure from conservative groups. This illustrates that the condition of representation of living together is only limited to drinking coffee with Muslim. But, on the basic understanding that every human being as a unique person is entitled to a freedom. The political dynamics in Cilegon also look very conservative, the political elites have no sensitivity towards minority groups. They are completely reluctant to leave their comfort zone, because the elites in the city do not strive for justice for minorities. The practice of plurality and conditions of freedom of worship have not been fully realized in the current living conditions of Cilegon society.

The remaining 9.2% is attributable to other factors not examined in this study.
