Critical Paradigm of Policy Implementation in Management of Marine Border Area by BPP East Nusa Tenggara in Rote Ndao District, Indonesia

Abstract

There are allegations of problems in the realm of implementation and the substance of the policy authority for managing the state maritime border area by BPP NTT in the Rote Ndao Regency area, East Nusa Tenggara Province, which affects the organizational communication ability of BPP NTT as the management coordinator, so research has been carried out to criticize the policy implementation process, and understanding the philosophical relationship between the substance of authority and the communication capabilities of the organization, as well as finding a new organizational model for the management of the ideal state maritime border area. The research was conducted using the Hybrid Implementation Model (a combination of the Grindle, Edward III, and Mazmanian Sebastier Implementation Models) with a Critical Paradigm approach. The results of the study show that problems in the Substance Dimension, regarding the weakness of authority, have an impact on the existing issues in the Operation Dimension, Organizational Dimension, and Communication Dimension, causing the low ability of the BPP NTT to act as a management coordinator in realizing policy objectives in the security aspect and prosperity aspect. The study's results also show a hegemony of central government power in managing the country's maritime border area, with indications of the floating authority phenomenon in the substance of the authority of the BPP NTT. Meanwhile, the ideal model for managing state maritime border areas is the Authorization Agency Model.
