Problematika netralitas Polri di era Jokowi: Keterlibatan dalam politik praktis dan bisnis

Mohammad Darry, Diah Asri — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 00:00:00 +0000

This article describes the problems of democratization that occurred in the reform era, namely the involvement of the National Police in practical politics and business. After the issuance of Presidential Instruction No. 2 of 1999 by B.J Habibie who stated that the National Police were separated from the Armed Forces, the National Police Chief was directly responsible to the President of the Republic of Indonesia through the National Police Law no. 2 of 2002. The law was issued as an effort to democratize post-reform, aimed at creating a professional security tool by prioritizing neutrality that does not involve oneself in practical politics and business. However, there are differences in the implementation of the Police Law. Along with the increase in its budget, the Police are actually involved in sectors that are not under their authority. During the Jokowi administration, this involvement was demonstrated by the distribution of 18 high-ranking officers in the ministry, 7 in non-ministerial institutions, 4 in BUMN, 2 in ambassadorial positions, and 2 in independent associations. This article was compiled through a literature study using secondary data to understand the causes of Polri's involvement in practical political and business activities. The argument of this article shows that the problem of democratization regarding the involvement of the National Police in practical politics and business by holding concurrent positions outside the corridor of security and order is caused by the interests of the authorities, which is a form of reward for President Jokowi's victory in the 2019 presidential election.

Safira Rafidah Rahmah, Ucu Martanto — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 00:00:00 +0000

This study discusses the commitment of green parties who care about the environment. The green party is the result of public dissatisfaction with the old conservative party which rarely prioritizes environmental interestS. It means that this green party has a role to participate in fighting for environmental issues into public policy. In Indonesia, until now there is only one political party that has declared themselves as a green party that cares about the environment, and the name is Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa (PKB). This qualitative research explains that the declaration of PKB as a green party must be followed by a real work program related to the environment. The results of this study refer to the PKB's point of view on the environment in the city of Surabaya, such as in the process of escorting natural disaster management programs and policies, also building community awareness to be more environmentally friendly through changing the patterns of behaviour. Meanwhile, proving the PKB party as a green party that cares about the environment can be seen from the performance that has been taken to fight for environmental issues, for examples, the Ecopesantren, Jambanisasi, Biopori and Reduction of plastic waste programs. However, the regulatory affairs of PKB's commitment as a green party are still considered to be insignificant.

Otoritarianisme-birokratik orde baru, krisis ekonomi dan politik, dan demokrasi formal masa reformasi

Budi Rajab — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 00:00:00 +0000

Since Indonesia’s new order led by Suharto rose to power, many countries have expressed admiration for the New Order (1966 – 1997), including developed countries, as an efficient and effective government, which was able to drastically reduce inflation and maintain economic growth. Previously, during the Old Order (1956-1965), the Indonesian economy stagnated, with very high inflation, even leading to bankruptcy, as well as conflicts between communists and military institutions. With the military institution winning the conflict, the New Order reversed the way of managing the state which in the Old Order era emphasized excessive political interference, so that economic development was neglected. The New Order state tried to build an economy with a capitalist system whose financing relied heavily on foreign debt and investment. foreign. Economic development is bearing fruit, poverty is reduced, education and health of the Indonesian people are better, but the political sector was controlled by the New Order State in a bureaucratic-authoritarian manner, the masses were demobilized strictly and repressively, even coercively. However, three decades later, the New Order regime was faced with an economic crisis in the mid-1990s and civil society movements and other civil groups demanding democratization of the political system. The community movement succeeded in overthrowing the New Order regime and replaced it with a reform regime. Economic development remains a priority of this reform regime in a capitalistic manner, but the democratic political system it develops is still conventional, procedural democracy, not participatory democracy, which means that although it no longer governs repressively, conventional state institutions remain strong, such as the executive, legislative, and the judiciary, while civil society groups are somewhat neglected.

This research discusses Kiai's views on women candidates in the 2018 East Java regional elections. There are two competing candidates, the Khofifah-Emil and Gus Ipul-Puti pairs. Both Khofifah and Gus Ipul were both from the Nahdliyin circles and claimed to have the support of the Kiai Nahdlatul Ulama. Kiai's support was divided, there were those who supported Gus Ipul and Khofifah. Many fatwa wars and arguments have arisen in the community to strengthen each candidate. One of the arguments that is often conveyed is about gender which looks down on women when going forward as a candidate in the 2018 East Java governor election. There are two competing female candidates namely Khofifah as a candidate for governor and Puti as a candidate for deputy governor. The research method that I used is qualitative-descriptive with observational data collection techniques and in-depth interviews with Kiai both structural Kiai and Nahdlatul Ulama cultural kiai in Surabaya and surrounding areas. The result was that the majority of structural Kiai supported women to run as candidates in the 2018 East Java Governor election. Only a small number of cultural Kiai refused women to run as candidates.
