Abstract

The long road of economic and political modernization of democracy in Indonesia has transformed Indonesian society into an industrial society that has not empowered the people's economic sectors. The ups and downs of democratic politics remain far from the culture of deliberation mandated by Pancasila. The combination of development politics that has hit collective economic, cultural wisdom with political liberalization in the past 15 years has negatively impacted Indonesian cultural identity. The following study seeks to reconstruct the local wisdom and political values of Indonesian ethnic groups and communities to demonstrate the potentials of social capital to improve our democratic politics. The object of the study consists of two types: the first is ethnic groups, with a focus on Wajo and Minang, the second is the communities of several urban parks in Java. The theoretical perspective used is the theory of deliberative democracy. From the point of view of political anthropology, this study is a case study in the context of qualitative research with qualitative-interpretive methods.

Highlights

The long road of economic and political modernization of democracy in Indonesia has transformed Indonesian society into an industrial society that has not empowered the people's economic sectors
Introduction1 The scientific study of voluntary associations based on ethnicity and succeeded in playing national politics in Surname from an anthropological perspective was brilliantly carried out by the famous Indonesian anthropologist Parsudi Suparlan (1975)
The cultural conflict and group interest in Ngandong Village, Klaten, occurred in the Post-Suharto era—and the explanation for this conflict goes beyond the classic Clifford Geertz trichotomy approach, namely the cultural conflict of the Santri, the Abangan segment of society, and the Javanese in the upper stratum, Priyayi Permana, (2010)

Summary

Introduction

The long road of economic and political modernization of democracy in Indonesia has transformed Indonesian society into an industrial society that has not empowered the people's economic sectors. The illustration in the background above is an excerpt from the many problems of malpractice of democracy It is the disappearance of civility and noble values or civic virtues of various sub-cultures, ethnicities, or ethnic groups Abdullah, (2014). Another illustration of the malpractice of deliberation is in the mechanism in the Musrenbang (Development Planning Consultation). See the results of the joint research paper; see (Zuhro et al.) Zamharir and Sahruddin's (2015) study of the political products of the MPR shows that the understanding of the Fourth Precepts of Pancasila and its implementation is problematic; the mandate of a talking-centric democracy is poorly understood and tends to deviate towards a voting-centric democracy With such a misconception, the derivative product is legislation and implementation of democracy, which relies more on representative democracy and democratic practices that marginalize the nation's noble values
