THE DYNAMICS OF MONEY POLITICS IN THE INDONESIAN LEGISLATIVE ELECTIONS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE NEW ORDER ELECTIONS AND THE REFORM ELECTIONS
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.18623/rvd.v22.n5.3240Resumen
Objective: This study aims to analyse the dynamics of money politics in Indonesian legislative elections, by comparing the election practices of the New Order and Reformation eras. The research gap lies in the lack of an in-depth comparative analysis between both periods with regard to the interaction between the legal framework and norm enforcement related to money politics. Method: The method used is normative legal analysis, which involves the study of primary legal texts and secondary sources, including historical records and scientific literature. Results: The results show that although the legal framework has evolved, which led to the explicit prohibition of vote-buying practices in the Reformation era, weak law enforcement and a persistent patronage culture have resulted in the persistence of widespread money politics practice. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in its emphasis that systemic changes in electoral regulation do not automatically improve electoral integrity. It is also novel that the study highlights the need for structural and cultural reforms to address the root causes of the practice of money politics. Contribution: These findings are expected to make a significant contribution to the academic discourse on electoral integrity and strengthen democracy in Indonesia.
