Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu is the official scientific journal of the Dewan Kehormatan Penyelenggara Pemilu (DKPP) of the Republic of Indonesia, established as an academic and intellectual forum for the development of discourse on election ethics, electoral integrity, democratic governance, and the institutionalization of ethical standards in the administration of elections. The journal was established from the recognition that the quality of democracy cannot be measured solely by the existence of elections, but also by the integrity, independence, professionalism, and ethical conduct of those entrusted with administering them. As an institution mandated to uphold the Code of Ethics for Election Organizers, DKPP has a distinctive position at the intersection of ethics, law, elections, and democratic governance. The establishment of Jurnal Etika & Pemilu was therefore intended to complement DKPP's adjudicative and institutional functions with a platform for knowledge production, scholarly discussion, and dissemination of ideas concerning electoral ethics. Since its establishment in 2015, Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu has been developed as a dedicated publication for accommodating scholarly works, research findings, conceptual studies, policy analyses, and intellectual reflections concerning election administration and ethical governance. In its early years, the journal was published in a limited printed format by DKPP and by contributors and institutions that shared the institution's vision and mission. Its publication represented an important step in introducing election ethics as an emerging field of academic inquiry in Indonesia. The emergence of the journal was closely connected with the broader development of election ethics in Indonesia. As the institutionalization of electoral ethics continued to evolve, there was a growing need for a scholarly forum capable of documenting experiences, examining ethical problems, developing theoretical perspectives, and encouraging critical discussion among academics, election practitioners, researchers, civil society organizations, and democracy activists. DKPP consequently positioned the journal not merely as an institutional publication, but as a space in which the relationship between ethics and electoral democracy could be examined through academic and scientific approaches. From its earliest editions, the journal sought to address a broad range of issues surrounding elections and democratic governance. Its publications have explored subjects including election ethics, the integrity and impartiality of election organizers, electoral disputes, political participation, election law, public administration, the relationship between ethics and law, and various challenges confronting democratic institutions. DKPP's publication archive records a range of thematic editions, including discussions on the ethics of election participants, the codification of election legislation, regional election issues, civil servant neutrality and impartiality, restorative justice in elections, and the concept of an ethics court for state officials. An important stage in the journal's development took place in 2018, when DKPP conducted a focused discussion for the preparation and development of Jurnal Etika & Pemilu. At the time, DKPP emphasized the importance of creating a scholarly space to accommodate the growth of ethical theory, research, and new findings relevant to electoral governance. The development process also marked the journal's transition toward a more systematic and sustainable scientific publication model. DKPP subsequently expressed its intention to move from the printed journal toward an electronic journal (e-journal), reflecting the changing landscape of academic publishing and the increasing importance of digital access to scholarly knowledge. The transformation from a limited printed publication into an electronic scientific journal represents more than a change in publishing technology. It reflects the journal's continuing effort to broaden access to knowledge, strengthen scholarly communication, and connect the Indonesian discourse on election ethics with a wider academic and international community. Through digital publication, the journal provides greater opportunities for researchers, academics, election organizers, policymakers, civil society, and democracy practitioners to access and contribute to discussions concerning ethical electoral governance. Throughout its development, Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu has maintained its fundamental orientation: to disseminate DKPP's policies, programs, ideas, and institutional experiences while simultaneously encouraging independent academic research on election ethics and democratic governance. The journal serves as a meeting point between institutional experience and academic inquiry, allowing practical challenges encountered in the administration of elections to be examined through conceptual, empirical, legal, and ethical perspectives. The journal's vision is therefore built upon two complementary purposes. First, it seeks to disseminate the policies, programs, ideas, and institutional knowledge of DKPP as an institution responsible for addressing violations of the Code of Ethics for Election Organizers and as an integral component of Indonesia's electoral administration system. Second, it seeks to expose and promote research findings concerning the importance of ethical enforcement for election organizers and public officials, as well as scholarly efforts to strengthen and restructure Indonesia's electoral system toward a modern democratic state. In pursuing this vision, the journal welcomes scholarly contributions that examine elections not merely as periodic political events, but as an essential institution of democratic governance. Particular attention is given to the relationship between ethics, integrity, law, institutions, and democratic legitimacy. The journal encourages original research articles, case studies, conceptual analyses, and policy-oriented studies that contribute to the understanding of electoral ethics and democratic governance. Manuscripts may be submitted in either Indonesian or English. Over the years, the intellectual scope of Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu has continued to evolve alongside developments in Indonesian democracy and electoral administration. Recent publications demonstrate an expanding engagement with questions concerning DKPP's constitutional and legal position, the relationship between codes of ethics and election integrity, conflicts of interest and political corruption, ethical and legal reasoning in DKPP decisions, democratic civilization, and the challenges of maintaining integrity within Indonesia's electoral system. The journey of Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu reflects the development of election ethics itself—from a relatively emerging area of discourse into an increasingly important component of democratic institutional design. Its continued publication is intended not only to preserve and disseminate knowledge, but also to encourage critical thinking, research, and innovation in the pursuit of elections that are conducted with integrity, independence, professionalism, and accountability. Vision Dissemination of Knowledge and Institutional Experience To disseminate the policies, programs, institutional experiences, and ideas of DKPP as an institution mandated to uphold the Code of Ethics for Election Organizers and as an integral component of Indonesia's electoral administration system. Advancement of Research on Ethics and Democracy To promote and disseminate research, scholarly studies, and intellectual discourse concerning the importance of ethical enforcement for election organizers and public officials, as well as efforts to strengthen and restructure Indonesia's electoral system toward a modern democratic state. Mission To become a national and international scientific journal on Ethics and Elections, serving as a University of Industry Democracy—a scholarly platform that brings together academic knowledge, institutional experience, empirical research, and practical perspectives to advance the study and practice of ethical and democratic electoral governance. Through this mission, Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu seeks to contribute to the development of election ethics as a field of knowledge, strengthen the culture of integrity among election stakeholders, and foster meaningful dialogue between academia, election management institutions, policymakers, civil society, and the wider democratic community. Ultimately, Jurnal Etika dan Pemilu aspires to become more than an institutional journal. It seeks to serve as a living intellectual forum for democracy, where ideas are examined, experiences are documented, ethical challenges are debated, and new approaches to electoral governance are developed. By connecting scholarship with institutional practice, the journal contributes to the continuing effort to build an electoral system in which integrity and ethics are not merely principles, but foundations of democratic legitimacy.

DKPP’S POSITION AS A LEGALLY CONTAINED ETHICS ENFORCER
The Honorary Council of Election Organizers (DKPP) plays a crucial role in upholding the code of ethics for election administrators in Indonesia. Al- though its primary focus is on ethical matters, DKPP possesses strong jurid- ical authority through its power to impose sanctions, including permanent dismissal of election officials. This paper aims to analyze the position of DKPP within Indonesia’s legal system, highlight the characteristics of ethics that carry legal weight, and examine the legal implications of its decisions. The findings indicate that DKPP operates in the intersection between ethics and law, filling the gap between moral violations and positive legal infractions, while simultaneously safeguarding the legitimacy of electoral administration.
INTEGRITY IN ELECTION AS A PILAR OF STRENGTHENING DEMOCRATIC CIVILIZATION: REKLECTION AND CHALLENGES IN THE INDONESIAN CONTEXT
Electoral integrity is a fundamental pillar for strengthening democra- cy, especially in the context of Indonesia, which faces electoral political complexity. This study analyzes the reflections and challenges that arise in elections in Indonesia through three main dimensions: money politics and campaign finance transparency, digital disinformation and political polar- ization, and the institutional capacity of election organizers and law en- forcement agencies. This study uses qualitative methods with document analysis, using monitoring agency reports, online news, and academic lit- erature as units of analysis through thematic content analysis. The results of this study show that money politics is still common, campaign finance reporting is not yet transparent, and digital disinformation reinforces polit- ical polarization. In addition, the capacity of electoral management bodies and law enforcement agencies is limited due to resources, complex reg- ulations, and political intervention. This study recommends the need for a comprehensive strategy covering political funding transparency, digital literacy, platform regulation, and strengthening the capacity and indepen- dence of electoral institutions for a healthy and sustainable democracy
PSYCHOMOTOR GOVERNANCE: A TRANSFORMATIVE SOLUTION TO INSTITUTIONAL PARALYSIS AND THE PROSPECTS FOR FUTURE EFFECTIVE GOVERNANCE
This article advances Psychomotor Governance (PG) as a transformative framework to overcome institutional paralysis in Indonesian bureaucracy. Using a qualitative, descriptive–explanatory approach, it synthesizes OPA– NPM–PVM and proposes three integrated pillars—cognitive, affective, psychomotor—as a unified capacity to think, value, and act. PG aligns with the Digitalization–Integration–Simplification (DIS) agenda so that reform does not end at tech/structure but reaches the human factor and work cul- ture. A practice illustration from Bawaslu Palembang, in preparation for the 2024 elections, demonstrates the orchestration of knowledge, service ethos, and field execution via random spot-checks and a volunteer school program. Key contributions are: (1) integrating public value with imple- mentation capacity; (2) outlining whole-competency human resource de- velopment; and (3) offering collaborative pathways among stakeholders for more adaptive, inclusive, and trusted oversight and services—there- by charting a realistic route toward future-ready effective governance. Keywords: psychomotor governance; public value; bureaucratic reform; government digitalization; Bawaslu Palembang
CHARACTERISTICS OF LEGAL AND ETHICAL REASONING IN DKPP DECISIONS: ANALYSIS OF CASES OF IMMORTAL ACTS
This research analyzes DKPP decisions using legal and ethical reasoning approaches as the fundamental foundation. The research problems are: first, what are the characteristics of legal and ethical reasoning in DKPP decisions? Second, what are the implications of DKPP decisions related to immoral conduct? This research is normative research using statutory, con- ceptual, and case approaches. The results of this research are: first, DKPP decisions have different characteristics and reasoning models in each deci- sion. DKPP Decision Number: 327-PKE-DKPP/XII/2019 employs Le- gal Positivism and Ethical Positivism reasoning models; DKPP Decision Number: 42-PKE-DKPP/IV/2020 uses Legal Realism and Ethical Real- ism reasoning models; DKPP Decision Number 16-PKE-DKPP/I/2021 utilizes Historical School reasoning model and also applies analogical rea- soning method; and DKPP Decision Number 145-PKE-DKPP/VII/2024 employs Legal and Ethical Utilitarianism reasoning model. Second, the im- plications of DKPP decisions related to immoral conduct can take the form of Landmark Decisions and ethical jurisprudence.
BUILDING A DEMOCRATIC CIVILIZATION THROUGH ETHICS AND ELECTION INTEGRITY
Indonesian democracy is the result of the people’s long struggle to up- hold political rights, not a sudden gift. Post-reform 1998, direct elections (pemilu) became a crucial milestone in the circulation of power. However, democracy often becomes trapped in procedural dimensions, neglecting its moral substance. The phenomena of money politics, identity polariza- tion, and the flow of disinformation in the digital space demonstrate the fragility of democratic foundations when political ethics are ignored. In this context, political ethics and electoral integrity are key prerequisites for building a dignified democratic civilization. Elections with integrity not only guarantee the legitimacy of government through honesty, transparen- cy, and accountability but also strengthen public trust. Meanwhile, political ethics serve as a moral guideline that prevents democracy from becoming trapped in transactional and manipulative practices. The synergy between ethics and electoral integrity can give birth to a substantive democracy that is civilized, just, and sustainable. This paper examines the role of ethics in strengthening democratic civilization and the importance of elections with integrity through a normative approach, literature review, and comparative analysis, to provide critical reflection on the future direction of Indonesian democracy.
ELECTIONS IN THE SHADOW OF POLITICAL FE DALISM TOWARDS THE CHALLENGES OF INTEGRITY IN AUTONOMOUS REGIONS
Elections in Indonesia’s autonomous regions are not only an arena for po- litical competition but also a space rife with feudal practices, particularly through dynastic politics and personal loyalties. This paper examines how election regulations work using a normative juridical technique and a so- cio-legal perspective, local political culture, and patronage dynamics influ- ence the integrity of electoral democracy. The results show that dynastic politics thrive due to weak regulations and oversight, and are reinforced by the pragmatic attitudes of political parties that prioritize electability over cadre development. Meanwhile, the community’s personal loyalty to leadership figures, rooted in a paternalistic culture and patron-client net- works, creates serious distortions of the principle of freedom of choice. This condition reduces transparency, accountability, and fairness in elec- tions, while simultaneously narrowing the space for citizen political partici- pation. Therefore, improving election integrity through regulatory reform, strengthening political parties, and public political education is an urgent agenda to ensure that local democracy is more inclusive, accountable, and oriented towards popular sovereignty.
REFLECTION ON CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND ITS TO POLITICAL CORRUPTION IN THE 2024 ELECTIONS
The implementation of the 2024 elections was not free from conflicts of interest and political corruption committed by state officials, thereby un- dermining the integrity of the elections. This study aims to discuss the factors causing conflicts of interest and political corruption in elections and to describe the prevention and accountability of conflicts of interest and political corruption in elections. The results of the study show that: first, the factors causing conflicts of interest and political corruption in the 2024 elections include inadequate law enforcement and weak public ethics among state officials, which do not reflect the public interest. Second, con- flicts of interest and political corruption can be prevented by improving the electoral legal framework and the code of ethics for state officials in gen- eral. Accountability can be achieved through legal accountability by enforc- ing administrative and ethical legal norms, as well as political accountability through checks and balances by parliament on conflict of interest practices and alleged political corruption committed by the executive in the elections.
CODE OF ETHICS AND ELECTION INTEGRITY: MEASURING THE AUTHORITY OF THE DKPP IN ENFORCEMENT OF INDONESIAN ELECTIONS
The Elections Commission (DKPP), as an institution enforcing the elec- tion code of ethics, has a responsibility to maintain integrity in its work, as a manifestation of an important character in the implementation of elections. This study aims to analyze the limits of the DKPP’s authority in enforcing election ethics and examine the expansion of ethical sanc- tions that have been decided by the DKPP. This study uses a normative juridical method using primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials and analyzed qualitatively. The results of this study conclude that the DKPP’s role is not only focused on the rule of law, but also on the rule of eth- ics. However, in carrying out its duties and authorities, the DKPP needs to be careful in interpreting and expanding ethical sanctions against elec- tion organizers in Indonesia to remain within the limits of its authority.
Praktek Disrupsi Kampanye Pilkada 2020 dan Potensi Pelanggaran Kode Etik
Disruption, which is interpreted as a change towards digitalization, leaving behind the old ways and patterns, has now occurred in the General Elections. The stages of the 2020 Regional Head Election campaign which were held during the pandemic, focused more on the use of social media. The potential for election disputes is very high, this is due to the very wide reach of social media, the potential for the emergence of black campaigns and SARA issues. Election organizers are also vulnerable to violations of the code of ethics, especially in socialization, allegations of not being neutral, unfair treatment and other violations of the code of ethics. Finally, it resulted in reporting to DKPP. Various changes have been made to optimize the use of information technology in carrying out its duties and functions. Such as holding a code of conduct trial by teleconference, receiving online reporting and strengthening the database. This is a practice of Good Governance Theory, characterized by the involvement of civil society and the private sector in optimizing the main tasks and functions of DKPP. The New Public Service and New Public Management paradigm has also been manifested in the efforts to enforce the code of ethics carried out by DKPP.
Belajar dari Pilkada Terakhir Tahun 2020
Tahun 2020 menjadi tahun bersejarah bagi dunia kepemiluan, termasuk Indonesia. Pada 11 Maret 2020 World Health Organization (WHO), menetapkan corona virus disease 2019 (Covid-19) menjadi pandemi global, dan pada 13 April 2020, melalui Keputusan Presiden Nomor 12 Tahun 2020, Covid 19 ditetapkan sebagai bencana nasional non alam. Untuk mencegah dan mengendalikan penularannya, tidak ada pilihan bagi para pemimpin negaradi seluruh dunia. Pilkada tahun 2020 merupakan gelombang keempat atau gelombang terakhir sebelum Pilkada Serentak Nasional Tahun 2024 untuk memilih Calon Gubernur dan Wakil Gubernur, Calon Bupati dan Wakil Bupati/Walikota dan Wakil Walikota. Pilkada 2020 merupakan putaran periode pemilihan dari pilkada serentak tahun 2015 yang diikuti sebanyak 269 daerah. Sedangkan untuk Pilkada 2020 diikuti sebanyak 270 daerah, dengan rincian 9 Provinsi (Gubernur dan Wakil Gubernur), 37 Kota (Walikota dan Wakil Walikota) dan 224 Kabupaten (Bupati dan Wakil Bupati) atau sekitar 53 persen dari total 537 jumlah provinsi dan kabupaten/kota di Indonesia. Bertambahnya satu daerah yang menggenapakan 270 daerah yang ikut dalam pilkada tahun 2020 disebabkan oleh gagalnya pasangan calon tunggal mengalahkan kotak kosong pada pemilihan Walikota Makassar tahun 2018.
REFLECTIONS ON THE 2019 RE-ELECTION FOR THE PRESIDENT AND VICE-PRESIDENT ELECTION IN MAKASSAR CITY FOR THE DIGNIFIED ELECTION ELECTION
This paper is to describe the decline in voter participation in the implementation of the re-voting in the city Makssar in the 2019 Presidential and Vice-Presidential election, including the effors made by the Makassar General Election Commission to increase the level of participation in the re-voting. The method used is description qualitatative, understanding the fenomena experienced by research subjects, such as perceptions, feelings and actions, data collection is done by triangulation (combined), data analysis is inductive, and the results of qualitative research emphasize the meaning more than generalization. The results showed that the was a decrease in the number of the voter turnout re-election because voters thought that the result would not change the vote acquisition either, even though the General Election Commission had made effors to increase voters participation, it had no impact on voter’s awareness to participation in the election.
THE STRENTHENING OF GENERAL ELECTION INSTITUTION: NORMATIVE JURIDICAL ANALYS
The strengthening towards the implementation of General Election supervision has been carried out through various amendments starting form Law No. 12 of the Year 2003, Law No. 22 of the year 2007, Law No. 15 of the Year 2011, up to Law UU No. 7 of the Year 2017 which constitutes he newest Law regarding General Election. The course of and the amendments to the laws aforesaid in the context of implementation and institutionalization of General Election supervision demonstrate changes in the position of the General Election supervision institution, which is increasingly strengthened, both from the institutional aspect and from its duties and authorities. However, the tendency of General Election violations almost always increases from one General Election to another. This matter causes General Election as the means of people’s sovereignty to be faced with a problem which simultaneously becomes challenges for the General Election supervision institution to present fair and equitable General Election, therefore, people’s sovereignty through the General Election process can be implemented. This research has the objective of analyzing the concept of General Election supervision based on the currently prevailing positive law in Indonesia. The type of this research is normative juridical. The data being used are secondary data in the form of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources. This research concludes that the General Election supervisory institution must continue to be strengthened considering the progressively complex challenges and obstacles and the increasing tendency of violations. In this case, the researcher offers the concept of strengthening the General Election supervision through a clear and explicit stipulation in Article 22E of the Constitution of the State of the Republic of Indonesia of the Year 1945 by inserting a phrase stipulating the General Election supervisor which is separated from the onvening of the General Election, therefore, the concept of supervision over people’s sovereignty in the general election which is carried out by the General Election supervisory institution will be preponderant and will have coercive force in the decision since here is a separation between the General Election organizer and supervisor.
THE ISSUES OF POSTPONEMENT OF THE REGIONAL ELECTION IN 2024 OF THE NATIONAL SIMULAR ELECTIONS
The interesting issues are examined in this article. First, the problem of postponing the regional election in 2024 for 271 regions which will end in 2022 and 2023. Second, the juridical concept of delaying the filling of local leaders positions in 2024. The study in this paper is normative with a statutory approach. The results of the analysis of these problems can be concluded: First, the postponement of the regional election from 2022 and 2023 to 2024 will result in vacancies for regional heads in 271 regions. In addition, the appointment of duty officer who will lead for one to two years creates uncertainty for democracy in the regions, and violates the principle of regional autonomy. Second, the postponement of filling the positions of local leader to be synchronized in 2024 must be based on a strong legal basis in the form of a Goverment Regulation in lie of law or revision of the regional election of law.
THE POTENTIAL ETHICAL VIOLATION IN THE PARALLEL ELECTION IN 2024
The Parralell Election at 2024 in Indonesia is an electoral process whicsh is an electoral process that combines the statage of simultaneous election. Simultaneous election in a “wholesale” or five-box model with the concurrent general election in a number of provinces anda/city districts. The coincided stages can cause the orgonizer’s body election workload and procedural fatigue. The situation at the election which could have an impact on increasing cases of ethical rules. This potential can increase as a result of many factors, especially the managerial election by the organizer’s body. The potential for echical violations based on patterns and trends of ethical violation in previous years can come from ethical violation during the election stage or non-election stages. This article is focused on discussing the potential etchical violatios might occur in the 2024 Parrallel Elect ions in Indonesia.
WELCOME TO THE INSTITUTION OF DIGNIFIED SIMULTANEOUS GENERAL AND LOCAL CHIEF EXECUTIVES ELECTION
This paper contained a persuation to consider institution of Dignified Simultaneous General and Local Chief Executives Election DSG&LCEE), to replace an idiosyncratic conception of "integrity” attached to the institution. The jargon "integrity" is only a minor concept of a Dignified Election Philosophy’s value system. A SGE&LCE is deemed to have “integrity” if all the formulations of the provisions in one particular law is obeyed in its black and white. Even though as it has become the elementary knowledge of jurists, the formulation of the provisions of any statutes or statutory instruments are not cecesarily always clear and complete, therefore the legal system would in the end has to be referred to. This is one of the axiom of the Dignified Justice system which is scientific and philosophical in nature. It provides the essentials of philosophy for SGE&LCE to climb the ladder from merely integrity to being ignified. To be in such a position SGE&LCE has to pass the juridical ontology, epistemology, and axiology in the Pancasila Legal System. In support of this argument, a legal researchmethods based on the theory of Dignified Justice is utilised to find, and analyze laws regulating aspects relating to the DSG&LCEE.
Keadilan Harus Ditegakkan Meski Langit Runtuh
Fiat justitia ruat caelum Keadilan Harus Ditegakkan meski langit runtuh (Lucius Calpurnius Piso Caesoninus: 43 SM). Sekurangnya 2 (dua) peristiwa penting menjadi tantangan baru Dewan Kehormatan Penyelenggara Pemilu (DKPP) di Era Kenormalan Baru (New Normal) Tahun 2020.Pertama,mengawali Tahun Anggaran Januari 2020, DKPP baru saja ditinggalkan Ketua Dr. Harjono, S.H., M.Cl., yang sejak 21 Desember 2019 resmi dilantik Presiden RI Joko Widodo sebagai satu Anggota Dewan Pengawas Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (Dewas KPK), dan sekira 3 bulan kemudian,Presiden baru menunjuk Didik Supriyanto, S.Ip., M.Ip., dalam Pergantian Antar Waktu (PAW). Lebih kurang 4 (empat) bulan, DKPP di bawah Plt. Ketua Prof. Muhammad M.Si., sebelum akhirnya pada 15 April 2020, resmi dipilih seluruh anggota DKPP dalam Rapat Pleno sebagai Ketua DKPP definitif sisa masa jabatan 2017-2022. Tentu peristiwa ini berpengaruh dalam beberapa hal kebijakan DKPP. Kedua, pada 11 Maret 2020 World Health Organization (WHO),menetapkan corona virus disease 2019 (Covid-19) menjadi pandemi global, dan pada 13 April 2020, melalui Keputusan Presiden Nomor 12 Tahun 2020, Covid 19 ditetapkan sebagai bencana nasional, setelah sebelumnya Pemerintah DKI Jakarta menetapkan Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB) sejak 7 April 2020. Covid 19 adalah tragedi dunia yang mutlak membatasi gerak aktivitas manusia, dunia kerja, tak terkecuali kinerja DKPP. Covid19 nyata berdampak pada merosotnya ekonomi, social kemasyarakatan, tradisi/budaya, ritual keagamaan, pendidikan, termasuk ditundanya jadual Pilkada Gelombang Keempat Tahun2020 (semula 23 September 2020 menjadi 9 Desember 2020).

Pelanggaran Kode Etik Penyelenggara Pemilu Pada Pemilihan Kepala Daerah Ditinjau dari Hukum Islam
Data on violations of the Election Organizer code of ethics until 2020 tends to increase. The possibility is increasing considering the simultaneous regional elections in 2020 are in covid pandemic. The main problem of this paper is related to the regulation of the code of ethics in terms of Islamic Law and the problem of violating the Code of Ethics by Election. The majority of the organizers, election participants and reporters in the code of ethics trial are Muslim, so it’s interesting to study them with normative juridical analysis. Islam does’nt recognize a strict separation between law and ethics. Ethics is a part of morals that concerns human behavior that’s outward in nature, and also includes broader matters, namely faith, worship, and sharia. Violation of the code of ethics can be prevented by carrying out the values of piety by referring to three aspects, namely al-karîmah morals, uswatun hasanah and rahmatun li al-'âlamîn.
Etika politik dinasti dan urgensi Pilkada 2020 dalam ancaman pendemi covid 19
The 2020 Pilkada feels different from the previous pilkada. The Pilkada event this time was held in a situation of the outbreak of the Covid-19 Pandemic which has not ended in Indonesia and also in many countries in the world. Apart from the Covid-19 Pandemic, this year's Pilkada was also marked by the re-emergence of “dynastic politics”, namely by the presence of candidates in several regional head elections who come from ruling families and high-ranking officials of this country, who are ready to fight for regional head seats. The holding of the 2020 Pilkada amid the Covid 19 pandemic and the spread of dynastic politics has become a paradox for the portrait of democratic life in Indonesia today. A wise and prudent policy is needed from the government and election management apparatus in Indonesia. The government and politicians of this country must draft regulations regarding whether or not close relatives can run as executive or legislative officials. This is felt to be very necessary in an effort to build sound political ethics and prevent dynastic political culture which seriously injures the development of good democracy. The 2020 Pilkada also did not make the spread of Covid 19 more widespread. The application of e-Voting can be a solution. The implementation of e-Voting can be the solution during the 2020 Pilkada to ensuring Covid 19 viruses not spread. This is because e-Voting offers a rationalization of the reasons against Covid 19 which overshadows the implementation of the stages of the Pilkada stages, starting from candidate registration, candidate announcement , the campaign stage, the voting period, to the announcement of the results of the Pilkada. e - Voting offers benefits, such ensuring that physical distancing will be maintained, easy voting, preventing the center of the crowd, offering speed and data accuracy.
Problematika Kode Etik dan Urgensi Demokrasi Pilkada 2020
The concretization of the implementation of people's sovereignty is the sustainable implementation of elections or regional elections. To realize the sovereignty of the people, the quality of election organizers is really needed. The election organizers have to keep the principles of election administration firmly. Those principles are independent, honest, fair, legal certainty, orderly, open, proportional, professional, accountable, effective and efficient. It is not easy for the election organizers to create conducive conditions, both in terms of regulations (laws) and in terms of ethics in organizing regional elections amid the pandemic of corona virus 2019 (covid-19. The success of the elections in 2020 is not only determined by the election organizers, especially General Elections Commission (KPU) and Election Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu) along with their own staff, but also it is fully supported by either district heads election (Pilkada) participants (candidate pairs), political parties, campaign teams, communities, or all existing stakeholders. Election Organizer Ethics Council (DKPP) as an institution protected by Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning Elections to maintain the election organizers’dignity through enforcement of a dignified ethic code is a must, although there are several challenges that can potentially be experienced in upholding this ethic, that is to say, DKPP is passive. The scope of the ethic code is normatively limited; the nature of the final and binding decision has begun to be disturbed; and adjustments to the ethic code trial has begun to be based on the covid-19 one (the issue of video conference versus assembly beliefs). The implementation of elections amid a pandemic is a test for election organizers to truly comply with the ethic code and law in order to create quality elections.
Existency Of DKPP In Enforcement Of The Organizers Code Of Conduct For 2020 Head Regional Election
The implementation of regional head election is an effort to manifest democracy at the local level that people are able to directly elect the candidates for their regional head. However, in its development, the implementation of regional election has become a polemic regarding the covid-19 pandemic in the world including Indonesia.If the election will continue to be implemented there is a risk of increasing number of sufferers and if it is not implemented there will be no development in the regions because there is no definitive regional head.In addition the function of DKPP as an ethical enforcement agency for election organizers has received serious attention related to the partial authority of DKPP. DKPP only assessed the ethics of the election organizers but they ignored it when the election organizers did not comply with the covid-19 protocol in the implementation of the election stages.This research used qualitative methode with the type of concept analysis. The data collection technique used literature study that come from books, articles, journal,and various news in the mass media.The secondary data, the author get through interview with informant who is positioned as election organizers. The result of the analysis that authority needs to be strengthened of DKPP not only ethical enforcement but also enforcement of covid-19 protocol.
Participation Of Digital Community As A New Challenge For Indonesian Elections
The 2019 election was the first simultaneous elections to be held amid the digital literate Indonesian society. The digital community itself becomes a new challenge in realizing the integrity of the elections. Demands for transparency, accuracy as well as easy access to information faster become the characteristic of the digital society. The digital community has its own public space, which is social media, which then becomes a new public sphere for people to talk about all sorts of issues including politics. It is not wrong if social media, as one of the Internet products that became the 5th pillar of Democracy, in addition to executives, legislative, judicial, and the press. In the development of social media has a special role in establishing a highly developed democratization Strategic. The community freely expresses its political aspirations. However, in realizing its integrity in the digital age, it does not leave the conventional system, but complementary, synergistic, and integral. Those who can deny the media of conventional and digital participation (social media) will reap optimal results. With the synergy between the two, democracy will also be stronger.

Election of The 2020 in Regional Head Shadow of Violation of Ethics
General elections are a means for the community to determine the figure and direction of state or regional leadership in a certain period. General elections have the main function of producing leadership that is close to the will of the people. Therefore, general elections are a means of legitimizing power. Direct regional head elections are in the context of realizing democratization at the local level. Pilkada is mandated by Article 18 Paragraph (4) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, so the requirements regarding people's sovereignty and democracy from the people, by the people, and for the people, must be respected as the main requirement for the implementation of regional head elections. The implementation of the 2020 General Election in its implementation is overshadowed by ethical violations in the midst of the Covid 19 outbreak. In the implementation of this year's General Election stages, DKPP has examined and decided on 90 election organizers. The highest data currently relates to the establishment of an ad-hoc agency. The modes of violation of the election management code of ethics are related to unfair treatment, negligence in the Election process, and the absence of effective legal remedies. Pilkada should be carried out professionally in order to be successful, safe and democratic. This professionalism includes planning and strategies that are mature and measured in every stage of the election. In enforcing ethical violations if they occur during the 2020 General Election stages, the provisions regarding sanctions are regulated in the DKPP RI Regulation No. 2 of 2017 concerning Code of Conduct for Election Administrators. It was emphasized that DKPP has the authority to impose sanctions on election organizers proven to have violated the Code of Ethics. The types of sanctions for violations of the DKPP RI Regulations, namely in the form of written warning, temporary dismissal, or permanent dismissal.
Legal policy of electoral law that intends to create elections with integrity are born from constitutional norms, Article 23 E paragraph (1) and paragraph (5) 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The principle of honest, fair and independent Election Commission becomes a constitutional basis for holding elections with integrity, but Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning general Elections as a rule of election with integrity does not provide an explanation of the principles of election law in the constitution. The legal institutions for organizing elections with integrity through an electoral system with integrity through the commisiion of general election (KPU), General Election Overigh Body (Bawaslu) and have weaknesses because the Bawaslu and Honorary Board of Election Officer (DKPP) have not been regulated in the constitution like the commisiion of general election . Election legal process with integrity still has obstacles due to the unevenness of institutions that have ethical enforcement authority between PPK, PPS, KPPS, PPLN, KPPSLN and District Panwaslu members, Kelurahan / Village Panwaslu, LN Panwaslu, and TPS Supervisors that are not resolved by DKPP with alleged violations a code of ethics carried out by KPU members, Provincial KPU members, Regency / City KPU members, Bawaslu members, Provincial Bawaslu members and Regency / City Bawaslu members completed by DKPP. The direction of developing electoral law with future integrity should be directed to; first, provide an explanation of the meaning of each principle of electoral law in article 2 and article 3 of the electoral law. Secondly, DKPP and Bawaslu should be considered through academic studies to be included as part of the electoral implementation system which is regulated also by the existence of institutions in the constitution. Third, it should be directed to form representatives of DKPP in regions that have the authority to adjudicate alleged ethical violations by PPK, PPS, KPPS, PPLN, KPPSLN and District Panwaslu members, Village / Village Panwaslu, LN Panwaslu, and TPS Supervisors.
