INSTRUMENT DEVELOPMENT OF POLITICAL PARTY INSTITUTIONALIZATION INDEX: A PRELIMINARY STUDY

Several qualitative studies on party institutionalization done previously in Indonesia have not provided measurement instruments to asses the degree of party institutionalization comprehensively. The purpose of this study is to complement and strengthen the analysis of party institutionalization, which has been analyzed before.

Therefore, as the preliminary study, the instrument provided here is still need further improvement by forming a construct that will perfect the entire CFA method and comprehensively produce the whole instrument of political party institutionalization index.

REVEALING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN WORK DISCIPLINE, TURNOVER, AND EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT TO EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE IN THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION ERA

This study will examine how work discipline, employee engagement, and turnover affect employee performance in the manufacturing company of Riau Islands Province, Indonesia. A quantitative methodology was employed to gather data from 100 employees via a questionnaire prepared following contemporary literature. Data analysis utilizing Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) indicates that the measurement model exhibits strong validity and reliability, characterized by outer loading values exceeding 0.7, Average Variance Extracted (AVE) values surpassing 0.5, and both Cronbach's Alpha and Composite Reliability values exceeding 0.7. The examination of the structural model indicated that 60.1% of the variance in employee performance is attributable to independent variables (R² = 0.601). The principal findings of this study were: (1) Work discipline exhibited no significant impact on employee performance (β = -0.115, p > 0.05), (2) Employee engagement similarly demonstrated no significant effect (β = 0.071, p > 0.05), (3) Turnover had a significant positive effect on employee performance (β = 0.278, p < 0.05), and (4) The moderation effects (X1-Z1 and X2-Z1) revealed a significant favorable influence on employee performance (β = 0.586 and β = 0.417, p < 0.05). The findings offer novel insights into the dynamics influencing employee performance within Indonesia's manufacturing sector, highlighting the significance of contextual factors and moderating effects in comprehending the relationship between human resource practices and employee performance. The consequences of these theoretical and practical findings and recommendations for future research are examined.

POST POPULISM: AN END-OF-SERVICE JOKOWI’S POLITICS FOR FAMILY

Populism emerges as an antithesis to government elitism amidst the crisis of democracy. Some experts also note that populism will also create a new elite for the government itself. Some countries show that populism is also the beginning of authoritarianism, such as Poland. This research shows that the same thing happened in Indonesia at the end of Joko Widodo's administration. Through the theoretical approach of Dynastic Politics and Populism, this paper explains that Jokowi built his dynasty through populism, brought Indonesia towards an authoritarian state, and brought democracy to a decline. Jokowi did so through constitutional means so that his dynasty could be democratically legitimized. Gibran was able to run for Vice President with Prabowo Subianto after his uncle, Anwar Usman, the chief judge of the Constitutional Court, granted a motion to change the minimum age of candidacy. Previously, Kaesang managed to become the chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party, which also supports Gibran. Meanwhile, in 2020, Bobby Nasution also managed to win the election in Medan as Mayor. Some parties considered the election to be forced. Jokowi is considered one of the actors who brought Indonesia towards authoritarianism
