    Al WASATH Jurnal Ilmu Hukum Volume 1 No. 2 Oktober 2020: 61-78 VICE PRESIDENT'S POWER AND ROLE IN INDONESIAN GOVERNMENT POST AMENDMENT 1945 CONSTITUTION Roziqin Guanghua Law School, Zhejiang University, China Email: [email protected] Abstract Politicians are fighting over the position of Vice President. However, after becoming Vice President, they could not be active. The Vice President's role is only as a spare tire. Usually, he would only perform ceremonial acts. The exception was different when the Vice President was Mohammad Hata and Muhammad Jusuf Kalla. Therefore, this paper will question: What is the position of the President in the constitutional system? What is the position of the Vice President of Indonesia after the amendment of the 1945 Constitution? Furthermore, how is the role sharing between the President and Vice President of Indonesia? This research uses the library research method, using secondary data. This study uses qualitative data analysis methods in a prescriptive-analytical form. From the research, the writer found that the President is assisted by the Vice President and ministers in carrying out his duties. The President and the Vice President work in a team of a presidential institution. From time to time, the Indonesian Vice President's position has always been the same to assist the President. The Vice President will replace the President if the President is permanently unavailable or temporarily absent. With the Vice President's position who is directly elected by the people in a pair with the President, he/she is a partner, not subordinate to the President.

I found that there are no rules about the recusal at the Constitutional Court of Indonesia meanwhile in other courts there were clear regulations. However, in reality, there are some practices concerning recusal at the Constitutional Court. This paper provides a recommendation of how the recusal is able in due to the request of the constitutional justice seekers, or to be submitted by the constitutional judges who clearly have a direct or indirect conflict of interest in the case. Keyword: Recusal, Constitutional Judges, Indonesian Constitutional Court. 183 | P a g e JOURNAL ON CONTEMPORARY ISSUES OF LAW [JCIL] VOLUME 4 ISSUE 7 ISSN 2455-4782 INTRODUCTION The constitutional judges have a very important position in any democratic state based on law (constitutional democracy) or a democratic legal state (democratic rule of law, or democratische rechtsstaat).1 According to Article 24C 1945 Constitution, the Indonesian Constitutional Court has the authority to adjudicate at the first and final instance, the judgment of which is final, to review laws against the Constitution, to judge on authority disputes of state institutions whose authorities are granted by the Constitution, to judge on the dissolution of a political party, and to judge on discussions regarding the result of a general election.

  • Designing a Constitutional Presidential Democracy in Indonesia

E-mail: [email protected] Received: April 2, 2020 Accepted: May 3, 2020 Online Published: May 13, 2020 doi:10.5539/jpl.v13n2p22 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v13n2p22 Abstract The constitutional design of the Indonesian democracy has undergone several significant changes from President Sukarno’s regime known as Orde Lama or the Old Order (1945-1965) to Era Reformasi or Reformation Era (1998 to present). During the drafting of the 1945 Constitution, the desire to form a democratic system of government that is unique to Indonesia has led its founding fathers to adopt an ambivalent system of government resembling both a parliamentary and presidential systems of government. By investigating the Indonesian democracy and system of government through the analysis of relevant articles of the 1945 Constitution, the present study seeks to address the question how to design a constitutional presidential democracy in Indonesia. The research results show that with the election of president and vice president and their accountability to the People’s Consultative Assembly or Majelis Perwalikan Rakyat (MPR), the design of the Indonesian system of government better fits a parliamentary more than a presidential. However, the four amendments to the 1945 Constitution (from 1999 to 2002) were intended to pave the way for a presidential democracy capable of accommodating the characteristics of a true presidential system of government in Indonesia.

  • The Role of Civil Society Organisations (Csos) in Combating Corruption During Democratic Transition in Indonesia
    School of Social Sciences and Asian Languages Department of Social Sciences Making a New Democracy Work: the Role of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) in Combating Corruption during Democratic Transition in Indonesia Budi Setiyono This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Curtin University of Technology July 2010 Declaration To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Budi Setiyono Date: ii Abstract Corruption has often stimulated the collapse of authoritarian regimes and was followed by democratisation in a number of developing countries. Many new democratic regimes, however, have also been failed to control corruption because during the transition to democracy, their institutional structure of governance has typically not functioned well. In Indonesia too, corruption has been a highly pertinent issue that has both stimulated and compromised the regime‘s transition to democracy. This has provided a platform for civil society organisations (CSOs) to take an active political role. Yet insufficient empirical examination exists on the role of CSOs in combating corruption during democratic transition and the implication for democratisation. This thesis documents and critically examines the contribution of CSOs (more specifically anti-corruption CSOs) in Indonesia, an examination essential to the study of democratisation and anti-corruption efforts. It investigates how and to what extent CSOs can fight corruption during democratic transition. Owing to the ineffectiveness and unwillingness of the state, civil associations have undertaken initiatives in fighting and underscoring corruption into the domain of public debate.

I benefited from the thoughtful comments of an anonymous reviewer at Indonesia. I thank Abdullah Kusairi, Saldi Isra, Nanda Utama, and Elwi Daniel for their help during my stay in Padang. I thank Nathan Badenoch, Arie Damayanti, and Dave Lumenta for their comments. I thank Deborah Homsher for her sensitive editing. 2 Coase theorem is named after Ronald Coase, one of the founders of the New Institutional School of thought. The Coase theorem was first used by George Stigler in his book, The Theory of Price. See Steven G. Medema, Ronald H. Coase (London: The Macmillan Press Ltd., 1994), p. 63. The standard Coase theorem says that when transaction costs are zero and rights fully specified, parties to a dispute will bargain to an efficient outcome, regardless of the initial assignment of rights. See Ronald Coase, The Firm, the Market, and the Law (Chicago, IL: Chicago University Press, 1988), p. 12. This book consists of reprints of Coase's works, including "The Problem of Social Cost" originally published by The Journal o f Law and Economics in volume III, 1960, in which the Coase theorem is rooted.

Promotor 2 Abstract The formal legislational testing of the 1945 Constitution is naturally an effort to assure the protection of the citizens’ constitutional rights from any absolute behaviors of the power holders because such absolute behaviors may result in the breaking of the fundamental rights of the citizens, and to avoid this, justice and benefits in terms of the proces of regulations in the forms of procedures, mechanism and the formation systems should be given as much as possible to the citizens. The formal legislational testing of the 1945Constitution is intended to establish better laws (leges condere legem melius mutato proposito) since in the legislational process, the principles of establishment are often ignored. Keyword : Constitution, A Formal mechanism. A. Background of the Study. The state of the Republic of Indonesia is a legal state1 with the principle of democracy2, as stated in the C1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia.3.
