• The Development of the Indonesian Political System from the Perspective of Centralization of Power and Elite Politics (2026) · Journal of Islamic Law and Humanitarian Studies · doi

  This study has several limitations due to its use of a qualitative literature-review approach that depends on secondary data from books, academic journals, political reports, and historical references. The research does not involve direct observation, interviews, surveys, or quantitative statistical measurement, therefore the analysis is primarily interpretative rather than empirical. In addition, because the discussion covers Indonesia’s political development across multiple political eras, certain regional political dynamics and specific elite actors are not examined in detail.

• The Pancasila Rule of Law and Democratic Backsliding in Indonesia A Critical Legal Perspective (2026) · Journal of Multidisciplinary Law Studies · doi

  Abstract: This article examines the Pancasila-based rule of law in Indonesia within the context of democratic backsliding using a Critical Legal Studies (CLS) approach. Normatively, Pancasila offers a synthesis of legality, morality, social justice, and religious values. This study addresses the growing tension between the normative ideals of the Pancasila-based rule of law and contemporary patterns of democratic backsliding in Indonesia, particularly regarding judicial independence, executive dominance, and restrictions on civil liberties. The weakening of judicial independence, the expansion of executive power, and the restriction of civil liberties indicate patterns of democratic erosion. Furthermore, its instrumentalization by political elites to legitimize policies that deviate from democratic principles. This study employs a qualitative normative-empirical approach using Critical Legal Studies (CLS), constitutional analysis, and critical interpretation of legal and political discourse related to democratic regression in Indonesia. The findings indicate that democratic backsliding the political
