Constitutionality of Open Legal Policy Making Law Number 3 of 2022 Concerning the State Capital in the Perspective of Siyasa Dusturiyyah

Open legal policy is a mandate provided by the constitution related to broad and flexible regulations. However, this policy has the potential to be misused by lawmakers when making policies for the public. Therefore, repositioning is needed by examining the extent of the boundaries of open legal policy in the making of the National Capital Law. This study aims to identify issues of open legal policy and evaluate the substance of the National Capital Law from the perspective of Siyasah Dusturiyyah. This research is a normative legal study using secondary data viewed from the perspective of Siyasah Dusturiyyah using a conceptual approach. The research found that Siyasah Dusturiyyah in the substance of the National Capital Law needs evaluation, considering several notes that the Nusantara Capital (IKN) will be led by the IKN Authority Head. The appointment of the IKN Authority Head is based on appointment, not regional head election, which is a violation of democracy because the appointment of IKN leaders is not through elections, which means not accommodating the right to voice and the right to choose from the people, which also violates Islamic law. This research concludes that the open legal policy in the National Capital Law, from the perspective of Siyasah Dusturiyyah, can be an alternative solution in each legislator’s rules to ensure that the regulations made are in line to improve welfare and equalize the development in the regions. The involvement of local governments is needed to establish regional cooperation, involving community participation and the principles of openness and public interest.

The Political Behavior of the Batulanteh Highlands Community in the Regional Head Election of Sumbawa Regency in 2020

his research aims to determine the political behavior of voters and the factors behind them choosing the people of the Batulanteh highlands in the 2020 Sumbawa Regency regional elections. This is interesting to research becauseeach voter has their own reasons and interests in determining political choices, so that candidates can determine strategy in campaigning to get results that are in line with the target. This study is qualitative research. The results of the research showthat the tendency for political behavior to vote for the people of the Batulanteh highlands tends to be dominated by aspects of the figure and campaign issues as well as the candidate's work program. This is closely related to the real condition of Batulanteh which is still very underdeveloped and far from development aspects. The factors behind the political behavior of Batulanteh Community voters are the voter's social circle as a variable that is outside the voter but has an influence in determining individual political choices. Individual voters' decisions are strongly influenced by group cohesion processes, not purely individual decisions and actions. This creates a "threat" if an individual in a group makes a decision that is different from the group's decision, including the decision not to vote. Then there are patron client relationships, money politics, and an assessment of regional socio-economic conditions. Of the various aspects above, the most determining aspect is money politics. Meanwhile, thepatron-client aspect is relative, one-off, and not literate. The existence of money politics is considered the most determinant in influencing a person's voting decisions. This is caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, making money politics easier to accept andincreasing nominal vote buying. Money politics succeeded in influencing voting behavior because candidates used personal loyalist strategies to influence voters through their social environment. The use of money politics is an effort to strengthen voters'preferences for certain candidates and strengthen the confidence of regional head candidates to be able to get guaranteed voter compliance

This article aims to find the concept of regulating ASN neutrality in the 2024 simultaneous elections and future elections. Normative legal research was chosen as an analytical tool to answer the legal issues that are the focus of the study in this article.
