Abstract

Organizational barriers in the audit process remain a significant concern because they directly influence supervisory effectiveness, decision-making quality, and the achievement of organizational objectives. Challenges such as inadequate coordination, limited human resources, insufficient auditor competence, and ineffective communication frequently hinder the successful implementation of audit activities. This study aims to examine the development of research on organizational barriers in the audit process through bibliometric mapping and literature review to identify research trends, thematic relationships, and future research opportunities. The study employs a quantitative approach using bibliometric analysis integrated with a literature review. Data were collected from scientific publications published between 2016 and 2026 through Google Scholar and Semantic Scholar using the Publish or Perish application. The collected data were subsequently analyzed using VOSviewer through network, overlay, and density visualizations. The findings reveal that the themes of communication and barrier constitute the most dominant and interconnected topics within the field of organizational audit studies. Research trends indicate a gradual shift from administrative and procedural perspectives toward strategic communication, information quality, technological integration, and stakeholder involvement. Density analysis further demonstrates that topics related to digital transformation, communication technologies, audit strategies, and collaborative governance remain underexplored. These findings suggest that audit effectiveness is determined not only by control and compliance mechanisms but also by the quality of organizational communication and the ability to manage emerging barriers. The study concludes that strengthening communication systems, integrating technological innovations, and enhancing stakeholder coordination are essential for developing a more adaptive, collaborative, and sustainable audit process in contemporary organizational environments.

Abstract

The agricultural sector is the backbone of the national economy but peasants in rural areas are often stuck in the quagmire of structural poverty due to their dependence on middlemen and long distribution chains. Presidential Instruction Number 9 of 2025 launched the Koperasi Desa/Kelurahan Merah Putih (KDKMP) program as a strategic intervention to build village economic sovereignty. This study attempts to analyze the potential of KDKMP in improving the welfare of peasants from the perspective of the Pierre Bourdieu theory of practice. The present study is qualitative in nature and uses a narrative review of literature design. Data from relevant government legislation, scientific literature and policy documents. The literature was interpreted using Bourdieu's Theory of Practice as the analytical framework. The results of the analysis show that KDKMP is not necessarily successful because of the risk of domination of local elites that can turn cooperatives into new “fields of corruption”. In addition, there is a hysteresis phenomenon, where old farmers experience a devaluation of cultural capital due to their inability to adapt to the forced digitalization of agribusiness. This program risks becoming a mere administrative symbol if it only pursues bureaucratic targets without the substantive participation of the community. Without transparent governance, KDKMP can strengthen power asymmetry and reproduce the initial capital inequality between actors. Further empirical and longitudinal research is needed in various rural areas to verify the real impact of the program on the welfare of farmers and test the effectiveness of financing mechanisms and habitus transformation in the field.

Abstract

Social media proliferation has reshaped the digital public sphere into a new arena for social justice discourse, including Islamic communication practices. Menfess accounts, anonymous message channels on Instagram and Twitter, have become a distinctive phenomenon where da'wah, social critique, and justice narratives are constructed without disclosing the sender's identity. This study maps the message-construction mechanisms of menfess accounts and examines their representation through three Qur'anic communication principles: qaulan sadida, qaulan baligha, and qaulan masyura. Employing a qualitative approach grounded in Hjarvard's mediatization theory, the research analyzed 50 menfess messages on social justice from January to March 2026 through digital observation and content analysis. Findings reveal three dominant patterns: an anonymous-narrative pattern leveraging identity invisibility for critique free from authority pressure; a dialogical pattern reflecting the shura principle to cultivate public reasoning; and a communicative-ethics pattern that consistently internalizes qaulan sadida, qaulan baligha, and qaulan masyura. The results affirm that menfess accounts function as a democratic justice arena, resonant with an Islamic-inflected reading of Habermas's public sphere. This study enriches contemporary Islamic communication theory and offers practical guidance for da'wah media managers designing inclusive, justice-oriented digital spaces.

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) is a government policy aimed at improving the nutritional quality of students and supporting the development of Indonesian human resources. However, the implementation of this program faces various challenges, particularly following the emergence of food poisoning cases that went viral on TikTok. This phenomenon has given rise to diverse public responses that shape the dynamics of public sentiment towards the MBG program. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of public sentiment towards the Free Nutritious Meal Program in the TikTok digital space and examine its implications for the crisis of trust and legitimacy of public policy. This study is based on theories of public opinion, digital communication, public sentiment, and the concepts of trust and policy legitimacy in the social media era. The study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach and a constructivist paradigm. Data sources come from TikTok user comments on news posts about food poisoning cases in the MBG program uploaded by online media accounts. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, documentation and recording of comments relevant to the research focus. Data analysis used the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was tested through theory triangulation and source triangulation to increase the credibility of the research findings. The research findings show that negative sentiment dominates public discourse, characterized by criticism of food safety, food quality, and program oversight. Furthermore, TikTok's algorithm reinforces the reproduction of opinions through user interactions, thus shaping collective perceptions of the MBG program. The research findings also indicate that digital sentiment impacts public trust and the legitimacy of government policies. Therefore, the government needs to optimize transparent, responsive, and accountable public communication to maintain public trust in the MBG program

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) is a government policy aimed at improving the nutritional quality of the population and has become a widely discussed issue on social media. This study aims to analyze audience reception of the MBG Program through netizen comments on TikTok using Stuart Hall’s reception theory. The study employed a qualitative approach with a reception analysis method. Data were collected through non-participant observation and documentation of netizen comments, then analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model and validated through data triangulation. The findings indicate that audience reception was divided into three categories: the dominant-hegemonic position, negotiated position, and oppositional position. The oppositional position emerged as the most dominant category, comprising 46 comments, indicating that most netizens understood the intended objectives of the MBG Program but rejected the dominant meaning offered and constructed alternative interpretations based on their views of policy priorities, economic conditions, and program effectiveness. These findings confirm that audiences actively participate in interpreting media messages and demonstrate that public reception of the MBG Program in digital spaces remains characterized by criticism and differing perspectives

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meal Program (Makan Bergizi Gratis/MBG) is a strategic social policy addressing malnutrition, stunting, and food access disparities among Indonesian students. While framed as a public health and educational intervention, its implementation carries significant socio-economic consequences for school canteen vendors, an actor group often overlooked in policy evaluations. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with purposive sampling, in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation, this study examines canteen vendors' perceptions and challenges following MBG implementation at SMP Negeri 7 Medan. Data were analyzed through interactive reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured via triangulation. Findings reveal polarized vendor perceptions, ranging from critical-negative to adaptive, with some reporting income declines of roughly 50% due to shifting student consumption patterns. Although designed as an economically neutral intervention, MBG functions as a disruptor of local micro-markets, prompting menu diversification and efficiency strategies. Uneven policy socialization further reflects limited stakeholder inclusivity, underscoring the need for more participatory communication

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meal Program (Makan Bergizi Gratis/MBG) is a strategic public policy aimed at improving the quality of human resources through the fulfillment of community nutritional needs, particularly for students and vulnerable groups. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the MBG policy and examine its socio-economic impacts on Indonesian society. The research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach based on a constructivist paradigm. The data used are secondary data obtained from various scientific literature sources, including journals, books, research reports, and policy documents. Data analysis is conducted using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which includes data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification, with data validity ensured through source triangulation. The results indicate that the MBG program has significant potential to improve nutritional status, health, and educational quality by enhancing students’ concentration and learning participation. From a socio-economic perspective, the program contributes to reducing household expenditures, improving community welfare, and stimulating local economic growth through the involvement of farmers, micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), and distribution sectors. Furthermore, the program creates employment opportunities and strengthens local food supply chains. Therefore, optimizing the MBG program requires strengthening governance, improving cross-sector coordination, enhancing transparency, and ensuring continuous supervision to make it an effective policy instrument in promoting community welfare and inclusive, sustainable economic development in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program is a strategic social policy of President Prabowo Subianto's administration, designed to fulfill the nutritional rights of vulnerable groups, particularly school-age children. However, beneath the program's social ambition, allegations of a "foundation farming" practice emerged whereby certain parties systematically established multiple foundations to manage more than one MBG kitchen simultaneously, maximizing program fund acquisition. This study aims to analyze how national online media constructed news coverage of this issue using Robert N. Entman's framing analysis framework. A qualitative approach grounded in critical paradigm was employed to examine news texts from Kompas.com, Detik Finance, and iNews.id published between April 2025 and March 2026. Analysis was conducted through four Entman framing elements: define problems, diagnose causes, make moral judgement, and treatment recommendation. Findings reveal that the three media outlets constructed the same reality with divergent emphases: Kompas.com highlighted social impacts and governance failures affecting beneficiaries, while Detik Finance and iNews.id foregrounded opportunistic behavior by implementing partners and regulatory loopholes. Despite differing in framing, all three media converged on the view that the MBG program should be preserved and accompanied by structural reforms and strengthened oversight mechanisms. These findings imply the need for a responsive and proactive policy communication strategy from the government in addressing media discourse dynamics.

Abstract

Social transformation is a fundamental process involving changes in social structures, patterns of interaction, cultural values, and societal institutions. This article critically analyzes the Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) under the administration of Prabowo Subianto by positioning it at the intersection of social welfare policy and political populism. This study employs a qualitative approach using critical content analysis of government policy documents, academic literature, and reports from relevant institutions. The analysis focuses on how MBG simultaneously functions as an instrument of social investment and as a mechanism for constructing political legitimacy. The findings indicate that MBG displays characteristics of welfare populism, referring to a condition in which social policy operates not only as a mechanism for redistributing welfare but also as a means of building a direct symbolic relationship between the state and society. On the one hand, the program reflects a social investment paradigm oriented toward long-term human capital development through nutritional intervention. On the other hand, its implementation continues to face various challenges, including structural inequalities, concerns regarding fiscal sustainability, and the blurred boundary between welfare rationality and political calculation. This study contributes to the development of the literature on welfare populism and political legitimacy in the context of contemporary Indonesian democracy.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of constitutional gaps and flaws in the Free Nutritious Meals Program (MBG) as portrayed in the video “MBG dan Aturan Konstitusi” on the Malaka Project channel. The research aims to identify how criticism of the MBG program is framed in digital media through the narrative presented by Feri Amsari. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method using William A. Gamson’s framing analysis and Stuart Hall’s representation theory. Data were collected through online observation and documentation of the analyzed video. The findings indicate that the video frames the MBG program as a policy with constitutional, administrative, and procedural problems. The framing is constructed through the use of catchphrases such as “constitutional violation” and “mysterious program,” exemplars in the form of student food poisoning cases, and an emphasis on the principles of the rule of law and good governance. The study also reveals that digital media play an important role in shaping public perceptions of government policies through the use of symbols, language, visuals, and political arguments in digital content
