Abstract

The military's involvement in power and land ownership often leads to conflicts, both vertically and horizontally. According to the Agrarian Reform Consortium's records in 2020, agrarian conflicts involving military personnel during the Covid-19 pandemic were relatively stagnant. This paper aims to explore the conflict between the TNI Akmil Magelang and the Magelang City Government. The method used in this study uses a descriptive qualitative approach. Data collection techniques in this study using observation and documentation techniques and processing research data using the stages of data presentation, verification, and concluding. This study uses Pondy's (1967) theory regarding the stages of conflict as an analytical tool. The results show that the military conflict over land control with the city government has occurred since 1985. However, this conflict has not yet found common ground. The peak of the conflict occurred in mid-August 2020 when the TNI put up a sign at the mayor's office complex. The TNI gave an ultimatum to the Magelang City Government to leave or compensate for land assets. The development of the conflict is currently heading towards conflict resolution. However, it does not mean that in the end the conflict resolution can be found. This departs from the historical record where this conflict has been going on for a long time, and various parties as mediators are involved. However, the conflict continues to roll on and at any time can explode again in public.

Abstract

The Indonesian government developed the Food Estate program as one of the spearheads in a food security strategy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Food Estate concept is a food development on a wide scale carried out in an integrated manner, including agriculture, plantations, and livestock in an area. This study uses descriptive and qualitative approaches to explain and analyze research problems. Data collection was obtained from the literature study regarding previous research and expert opinion. Overall, food estate development can increase per capita income and reduce the percentage of income for daily food needs, which is essentially very important if the government is to have more policy options in the event of a global food crisis due to COVID-19. However, there should be an improvement in the smooth distribution so that there is no longer a shortage of food, which impacts hoarding for consumer groups, causing shortages for other groups. The COVID-19 pandemic, of course, has taught the relationship between the health of the environmental system and the food system. Therefore, the synergy between food, ecological systems, and economic systems is an obligation.

Abstract

In the general election for legislative candidates, which is attended by dozens of candidates in one electoral district, often voters do not have sufficient information about the background and performance of the competing candidates. This study explores how a voter chooses his deputy candidate with inadequate information on the candidates. In conditions of low candidate personal information, voters use various attributes or any clues listed on the ballot to help them make decisions in a limited time. In political psychology, mental processes like this are referred to as heuristics. Using an online experimental method and a 2x2 factorial design as well as a two-way ANOVA statistical test, this study examines two forms of heuristics that voters might use to help make political decisions, namely gender and academic degrees. This study indicates that neither gender nor academic degree has a significant effect on encouraging voters to choose. This is evidenced by the results of experimental research studies, which show that each variable has a significance greater than 0.05.

Abstract

This research aims to explain the hoax phenomenon with the concept of electoral manipulation in the form of information on the holding of 2019 Presidential and Vice Presidential General Election. Hoax problems in elections are often found in several countries such as Venezuela, France, the United States, and Indonesia. This research is qualitative research by combining primary and secondary data. Primary data was obtained through interview techniques with several institutions concerned about elections and hoaxes. Meanwhile, secondary data was obtained through literature, news, and documentation which support this research. As Alberto Simpser’s view in this research expresses, electoral manipulation aims to increase the influence of groups of political actors on citizens as voters. Electoral manipulation was seen as a tool to win the upcoming elections and as a tool to influence people's behavior - elites, citizens, bureaucrats, organizations, politicians, and others - with excessive and blatant manipulation seeming logical. Therefore, this research found that by linking hoaxes as a form of informational electoral manipulation, it is found that hoaxes do not only attack political opponents. However, hoaxes as a part of electoral manipulation in the form of information have implications for efforts to delegitimize public trust in electoral organizers, especially the General Election Commission (KPU).

Abstract

Terrorism is a significant issue in national and global security. Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York, USA, the fight against terrorism has continued to this day. Resistance to terrorists has also changed the stereotype of Muslims, which affects Indonesia's reputation as the largest Muslim country in the world. The Bali I bombing attacks in 2002 by Jamaah Ansharut Daulah (JAD) terrorism group reconstructed its identity as Islam Moderate and Indonesia's foreign policy. The method used is the literature study method. Literature study is all efforts made by researchers to collect various information relevant to the topic or problem that will be studied. Through the identity, Indonesia can convince the western countries that Indonesia is worth reflecting true Islam and space to involve in the international political stage. As a pioneer of the Non-Aligned Movement and track record in the region, Indonesia trusted to be a role model for the Islamic world, especially the Middle East, that Islam and democracy are compatible. Through this, Indonesia seed as a strategic country to build international cooperation against radicalism and terrorism, which still becomes a global challenge presently.

The discourse of the Indonesian Anti-Communist Front of Yogyakarta city views communist social viewpoints and beliefs consistent with its historical methods. Communists view religion as a result of the history of human development. Based on historical materialism, the beginning of religion was designed by man as an institution containing all aspects of goodness, beauty, justice, and the realm of Communists viewing religion as a human creation. Religion is an imaginary world. Communism, which has a very heinous problem with theology, causes distrust of God and even causes them to be anti-God, anti-Religion, and even aggressive towards religious groups. But part of the Indonesian Communist Party cadre is Islamic, so what the Indonesian Anti-Communist Front says does not represent a diverse reality about PKI and communism.
