PARADOKS PARTISIPASI RAKYAT DALAM PEMILIHAN KEPALA DESA (ANTARA KEDAULATAN RAKYAT DAN REGULASI OTONOMI DESA DALAM BINGKAI HUKUM NASIONAL)
The issue of popular sovereignty in the process of electing village heads is a matter worthy of debate, given the structural tension between the principle of popular sovereignty as guaranteed by Article 1(2) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, the principles of recognition and subsidiarity in Law No. 6 of 2014 on Villages, and the standardisation of technical regulations set out in Ministerial Regulation No. 112 of 2014 in conjunction with Ministerial Regulation No. 65 of 2017. This paradox is characterised by a high rate of formal participation, which reached 82.4% nationally during the 2018–2023 period, yet this does not necessarily reflect the quality of substantive participation or strong legitimacy. This study is a normative legal study employing a statutory approach and a comparative approach. The legal materials consist of legislation, court rulings, constitutional law literature, and principles of constitutional politics. Qualitative analysis was conducted to identify normative inconsistencies and their impact on popular sovereignty at the village level. The research findings reveal a paradox of participation across four dimensions: (1) quantity versus quality, where high attendance figures do not guarantee substantive legitimacy; (2) normative guarantees versus structural barriers, where the principles of LUBER JURDIL cannot be optimally realised due to rigid technical regulations; (3) village autonomy versus national standardisation, where the prescriptive approach of the Ministerial Regulation has the potential to be ultra vires in relation to the Village Law; and (4) formal inclusivity versus factual exclusion, where vulnerable groups such as first-time voters and the elderly do not receive adequate facilitation. Furthermore, a comparative analysis with the principles of siyasah syar’iyyah indicates that village head election regulations are consistent at the procedural level, but substantively conflict with the principles of shura, ‘adl, amanah, and maslahah. This study concludes that harmonisation of village head election regulations is necessary through a revision of the Ministry of Home Affairs Regulation’s paradigm from full standardisation towards minimum standards, the establishment of an independent dispute resolution mechanism, and the inclusion of affirmative provisions for vulnerable groups. Thus, the law, which should facilitate popular sovereignty, does not instead become an instrument that hinders it.
