Abstract

The study reveals that the Bima City General Election Commission (KPU) implemented a comprehensive set of strategies to reduce voter abstention and enhance participation in the 2024 regional election. These efforts included direct face-to-face outreach, segmented voter education, the strategic use of social and electronic media, and the installation of electoral information materials across urban and peripheral areas. Collaboration with religious leaders, community figures, and Democracy Volunteers significantly expanded the reach and credibility of political education, particularly among first-time voters, women, and marginalized groups. The findings show that although the number of registered voters increased compared to 2018, voter turnout experienced a slight decline from 84.13% to 84.04%, influenced by low political literacy, political apathy, economic constraints, and the mobility of young voters. Overall, the study concludes that KPU’s integrated outreach model effectively sustained high participation levels while highlighting persistent challenges requiring targeted policy interventions.

Abstract

This study uncovers the latent structure of systemic corruption in public procurement across Bima City, Bima Regency, and Dompu Regency, revealing a pathological convergence of state capture, neopatrimonialism, and crony capitalism. Using a critical qualitative approach with an intrinsic case study design, it integrates Foucault’s governmentality, institutional corruption theory, and Baudrillard’s simulacra to explain how procurement mechanisms shift from administrative instruments into tools of predatory power consolidation. Data were obtained through elite interviews, legal and audit document analysis, and participatory observation, and analyzed using critical discourse analysis within abductive reasoning. The findings show procurement systems hijacked through orchestrated collusion, fabricated documentation, and bureaucratic manipulation under pseudo-legality. The research concludes that procurement corruption has become an institutionalized governing regime that erodes democratic legitimacy, degrades bureaucratic ethics, and endangers the sustainability of local public governance.

Abstract

This study analyzes the effectiveness of collaborative governance implemented by UPT DP3AP2KB in partnership with health services and village governments to accelerate stunting reduction in Sape District, Bima Regency. Using a descriptive qualitative case study, data were obtained through interviews, observation, and document analysis with village officials, UPT staff, health workers, and posyandu cadres. The findings indicate that cross-sector collaboration operates through institutional arrangements such as the Stunting Reduction Acceleration Team and village forums, supported by facilitative leadership in aligning stakeholder interests. Collaborative processes rely on communication, trust, shared commitment, and common goals. The collaboration has improved targeted interventions, particularly maternal and child nutrition programs, although challenges persist, including limited nutritional literacy, inadequate technical personnel, and weak intersectoral data integration. The study recommends strengthening village capacity, improving data coordination mechanisms, and expanding collaborative networks to ensure sustainable and effective governance.

Abstract

The increasing divorce rate in Indonesia over the past decade indicates growing vulnerabilities in family resilience shaped by changes in social, economic, and cultural structures. This article aims to analyze the relevance of the Muhammadiyah concept of Keluarga Sakinah in responding to contemporary divorce trends through a socio-religious approach based on community data. This study employs a non-field research design relying on secondary data analysis, including official Muhammadiyah documents, reports on Muhammadiyah community programs, and divorce statistics issued by the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) and the Supreme Court of Indonesia. Therefore, this study concludes that the relevance of the Muhammadiyah concept of Keluarga Sakinah is contextual in nature and requires synergy among religious organizations, the state, and civil society to strengthen family resilience in Indonesia

Abstract

Social media is widely regarded as an essential medium for disaster communication, yet its role in rural communities remains context-dependent. This study examines post-disaster communication practices in Bulukerto Village, Batu City, following the 2021 flash floods. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed using field observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings indicate that although most residents have access to social media, face-to-face communication remains the dominant practice because it provides greater trust, social legitimacy, and opportunities for collective action. Social media serves only as a complementary channel for practical coordination, information sharing, and personal expression rather than the primary communication platform. These findings demonstrate that disaster communication is strongly shaped by local social structures, collective experiences, and community values. The study contributes to disaster sociology by highlighting the contextual limitations of social media and emphasizing the enduring importance of social relationships and community solidarity in post-disaster recovery.

Abstract

Social media is widely recognized as an important tool for disaster communication, yet its role in rural communities remains underexplored. This study examines post-disaster communication practices in Bulukerto Village, Batu City, following the 2021 flash floods. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. Findings reveal that although most residents have access to social media, face-to-face communication remains the dominant practice due to its stronger social legitimacy in building trust, reinforcing solidarity, and mobilizing collective action. Social media functions only as a complementary medium for practical coordination and personal expression rather than the primary communication platform. These findings demonstrate that post-disaster communication is shaped by local social structures, collective experiences, and community values. The study contributes to disaster sociology by highlighting the contextual limitations of social media and the enduring importance of social relationships in post-disaster recovery.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital media has transformed da'wah communication into a more interactive and influential process for strengthening Muslim spirituality. This study examines da'wah communication strategies through illocutionary speech acts in Ustadz Hanan Attaki's sermon Learning to Be Calm Even When There Are Many Problems. Using qualitative content analysis, the sermon transcript was analyzed through the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, integrating Searle's illocutionary speech act theory with da'wah communication theory. The findings reveal four dominant strategies persuasive, empathetic, reflective, and motivational expressed through assertive, directive, expressive, and commissive speech acts. These strategies promote spiritual awareness, emotional engagement, self-reflection, and religious commitment. The study concludes that illocutionary speech acts serve as strategic communication tools that enhance the effectiveness of humanistic and transformative digital da'wah in strengthening Muslim spirituality within contemporary digital communication contexts.

Abstract

The 2018 Lombok earthquake and the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the decline of the tourism sector, primarily because of severe damage to tourism infrastructure. This study explores the efforts undertaken by Pokdarwis Kerujuk Lestari to restore ecotourism after the earthquake through participatory development communication. It uses a qualitative research approach, with data collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings show that Pokdarwis serves as a facilitator that drives tourism recovery through rebranding, the use of social media, capacity building, and the strengthening of multi-actor networks, which have increased tourist visits and strengthened social solidarity within the community. The obstacles identified include the consistency of digital content dissemination and the need for broader public involvement and tourism-awareness development.

Abstract

Stunting remains a major public health challenge affecting human capital and sustainable development. This study analyzed temporal trends and the spatial distribution of stunting among children under five across four hamlets in Kerumut Village, East Lombok Regency, from January to August 2025. A descriptive quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design was employed using secondary data from the 2025 Kerumut Village Stunting Database. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, temporal trend analysis, and simple spatial analysis. The findings showed a fluctuating but declining trend, with cases decreasing from 90 in February to 46 in August, representing a 48.9% reduction. Spatially, Toron Hamlet recorded the highest proportion of cases (30.4%), followed by Benteng (26.1%), Gubuk Daya (23.9%), and Dasan Lendang (19.6%). Male children accounted for most cases (58.7%). Targeted, area-based interventions remain essential to sustain progress and accelerate stunting reduction.

Abstract

Moderate character education is a strategic approach to preventing the emergence of radical behavior in society. This study analyzes its role in empowering the congregation and preventing radicalism among members of Asy Syifa Mosque in Presak, Narmada District, West Lombok Regency. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research explores the congregation’s experiences and practices of religious moderation. The findings reveal that moderate character education is implemented through dialogue, deliberation, participatory activities, and the reinforcement of tolerance, mutual respect, and togetherness. Congregants showing signs of radical views are engaged through discussion and encouraged to participate in community programs rather than being stigmatized. Kyai and congregational mentors also play a vital role in promoting peaceful, inclusive, and balanced religious teachings. These practices strengthen social cohesion and demonstrate that moderate character education is an effective instrument for empowering communities and preventing radical behavior.
