The article focuses on the major stages of development of Alexei Navalny’s social movement in 2017-2019 on the federal and regional levels. The movement aims to form and mobilize the supporters of Alexei Navalny in the movement’s structural elements to carry out opposition activities in large cities. In the long-term, the movement wants their activists to participate in regional and local elections. The movement is developing in the context of slowly growing socio-economic and political dissatisfaction in the country and the government’s aim to restrict public expression of concern. The conditions make the movement look for new formats of manifesting people’s discontent. The weakness of the movement is Alexei Navalny’s non-eligibility to hold the office and absence of Navalny’s political party. His image of a “fringe” and “protesting” politician created by the television media prevents him from becoming a respectable and worthy of support politician for the majority of Russians.

The article is devoted to the research of the state of the legal basis of organization and functioning of political parties in Ukraine. Attention is drawn to the fact that the legal basis for the organization and functioning of political parties in Ukraine is mainly the general provisions of normative legal acts, namely: the Constitution of Ukraine, the Tax Code of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine «On Political Parties in Ukraine», «On the Election of the President of Ukraine» , «On the Election of the People’s Deputies of Ukraine», «On the Local Elections», «On the State Registration of Legal Entities and Individuals — Entrepreneurs and Public Entities», etc. It is established that, although certain norms determine the peculiarities of creation, registration, activity and termination of political parties, their structural formations, a number of provisions of legislation regarding the organization and functioning of political parties require further elaboration. According to the results of the analysis, the main directions of improvement of the legal basis for the organization and functioning of political parties in Ukraine were proposed, in particular: clarification of the definition of the term «political party» contained in Art. 2 of the Law of Ukraine «On Political Parties in Ukraine» basing on the legal essence of this concept; defining the principles of political party activity; clarification of the list of documents submitted by the applicant for state registration of political parties; defining an exhaustive list of grounds for refusal to register a political party in order to prevent free interpretation by the bodies of registration of the provisions of legislation; specifying the procedure for state registration of political parties and providing additional time for eliminating deficiencies in the documents submitted for registration (suspension of consideration of documents submitted for state registration); determining the procedure for adopting, registering amendments and additions to the statute of a political party; the procedure for convening and holding the constituent congress (conferences, meetings), the procedure for forming and powers of governing party bodies; the need to determine the status of property after the cessation of political party activity. It is proposed to amend certain articles of the Law of Ukraine «On Political Parties in Ukraine» and the Law of Ukraine «On State Registration of Legal Entities and Individuals — Entrepreneurs and Public Formations».

Pemilihan Kepala Daerah (Pilkada) di Indonesia mengalami perubahan yang cukup beragam, mulai dari pilkada secara langsung, pilkada melalui mekanisme perwakilan, yaitu dipilih oleh DPRD, hingga kembali pada pilkada secara langsung. Perubahan tersebut menimbulkan pertanyaan tentang bagaimanakah perubahan pilkada di Indonesia, khususnya bagi calon perseorangan serta implikasi perubahan pilkada bagi calon perseorangan dalam pilkada dilihat dari perspektif HAM. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan analitis, dapat disimpulkan bahwa ketentuan mengenai persyaratan jumlah dukungan minimal bagi calon perseorangan tidak pernah berubah, padahal jumlah dukungan minimal tersebut cukup besar. Perbedaan acuan persentase jumlah dukungan antara calon perseorangan dan calon dari partai politik memberikan kesenjangan yang lebih membebani calon perseorangan. Salah satu landasan filosofis keberadaan calon perseorangan dalam pilkada adalah untuk memenuhi hak asasi manusia, khususnya hak warga negara untuk ikut serta dalam pemerintahan. Kesenjangan yang ada tersebut menunjukkan pembentuk undang-undang belum secara total memenuhi hak warga negaranya dengan menyediakan kesempatan yang sama untuk ikut serta dalam pemerintahan. Oleh karena itu, pembentuk undang-undang harus mengkaji ulang ketentuan mengenai jumlah dukungan minimal calon perseorangan, khususnya acuan persentase jumlah dukungan minimal calon kepala daerah.<p>Local elections for regional leaders (Pilkada) in Indonesia has experiences quite diverse changes from direct Pilkada, Pilkada through representative mechanism i.e. chosen by The Regional Representatives Council, and back to utilising direct Pilkada. This changes have raised question on how Pilkada’s changes and implications in general, and especially to individual candidates if it is seen through human rights perspective. Using regulatory and analytical approach, it can be concluded that the provisions concerning the minimum requirements of the amount of support for individual candidate has never changed. Reference percentage difference between the amount of support for individual candidate and candidate from political party provide more gaps burdening the individual candidate. One of philosophical foundation of the existence of individual candidate in the election is to fulfill human rights, especially the rights of citizens to participate in government. Existing gap indicates the legislators have not completely fulfill the rights of its citizens by providing equal opportunities to participate in government. Therefore, legislators should review this provision, in particular the reference percentage of the minimum amount of support for regional leaders candidates.</p>

The purpose of this article is to analyze the relationships between partisan and nonpartisan voting patterns in four cities using nonpartisan municipal elections. It is part of a larger comparative study on the process of policy formation in middle-sized cities. The data have been used to test the nonpartisan rationale which states that the removal of party labels from the ballot insulates local elections from state and national political party influences.The “insulation” argument states that national political parties do not and cannot adequately serve the needs of the local political unit. Their intrusion into the local scene invariably represents the introduction of irrelevancies which confuse the voters and prevent them from dwelling on local issues in city elections. Thus, the nonpartisan idea is partially based on the belief that local democracy will be improved through rationalizing its political universe. Citizens will choose well if specific, pertinent, and familiar questions are posed to them.

Local Fiscal Policy

The effect of local fiscal policy perception on the electoral process in a representative democracy is investigated. The test is made by using an ordinary least squares regression on a sample of fifty Spanish municipalities. The dependent variable is the relative increase in the number of votes in support of the political party in power between the two previous local elections, and the independent variables are public investment and taxes collected by local government. The empirical evidence supports the hypothesis that fiscal perception affects voters’ behaviour.

Aparat pemerintah merupakan pelayan public yang harus netral dalam setiap pelaksanaan tugasnya. Negara kita dalam waktu dekat akan menyelenggarakan pilkada serentak 2015, pilkada tentu saja melalui beragam prosedur yang membutuhkan kerja keras dan dukungan semua pihak. Meskipun membutuhkan dukungan banyak pihak, termasuk aparatur pemerintah, namun seorang aparatur pemerintah hendaknya dapat menghindarkan dirinya dari keberpihakan pada salah satu calon. Sebuah Surat Edaran Menteri PANRB nomor B/2355/M.PANRB/07/2015 diterbitkan untuk mempertegas UU No. 5/2014 tentang ASN/PNS. Berdasarkan surat edaran tersebut PNS yang menjadi anggota dan/atau pengurus partai politik, akan dijatuhi hukuman berupa diberhentikan dengan tidak hormat. Selain itu, dalam PP No. 53/2010 tentang Disiplin PNS, juga menegaskan bahwa PNS dilarang memberikan dukungan kepada calon Kepala Daerah/ Wakil Kepala Daerah. Penerbitan surat edaran tersebut ditujukan agar profesionalitas dan pelayanan public oleh para PNS tetap dapat dipertahankan, serta terbebas dari hal-hal yang berbau politik. Tulisan ini bertujuan menggambarkan latar belakang netralitas PNS dari sudut pandang teori-teori birokrasi serta sanksi yang diberikan bila terjadi pelanggaran. Netralitas merupakan hal yang mutlak bagi seorang PNS, namun mereka adalah manusia biasa yang punya motivasi-motivasi tertentu di dalam pelaksanaan tugasnya. Budaya tawar-menawar jabatan, yang di tentukan berdasarkan kedekatan dan suka-tidak suka, memungkinkan semakin jauhnya PNS dari sikap netral. Pemerintah yang dalam hal ini Kementerian Pendayagunaan Aparatur Negara dan Reformasi Birokrasi (KemenPAN RB) megeluarkan Surat Edaran Nomor B/2335/M.PANRB/07/2015 tertanggal 22 Juli 2015, yang mengimbau agar seluruh PNS netral dalam Pilkada. Sanksi yang diberikan adalah pencopotan jabatan bila kemudian terbukti memanfaatkan fasilitas-fasilitas Negara dan dengan sengaja mengakibatkan kerugian bagi orang banyak. ---Government officials should have neutrality in their performance of duties. Our country in the near future will hold local elections of 2015, the elections of course through a variety of procedures that require hard work and support of all parties. Although it requires the support of many parties, including government officials, but the government apparatus should be refrained from siding on one of the candidates. Minister PANRB issued regulation number B / 2355 / M.PANRB / 07/2015 to reinforce the Law 5/2014 on the ASN / PNS. Based on this regulation, civil servants who are members and / or political party official, would be sentenced to be dishonourably discharged. In addition, in PP 53/2010 about PNS Discipline, also confirmed that civil servants are prohibited from providing support to candidates for Regional Head / Deputy Head of Region. The issuance of the regulation intended for professional and public services by civil servants can still be maintained, and free from political disputes. This paper aims to describe the background of the neutrality of civil servants from the viewpoint of theories of bureaucracy and sanctions provided in case of infringement. Neutrality is an absolute issue for a civil servant, but they are ordinary people who have certain motivations in the execution of their duties. Cultural of position bargaining, which is determined based on proximity and likes-dislikes, allowing more and more away from the neutrality of civil servants. The Government, in this case the Ministry of Administrative Reform and Bureaucratic Reform (Kemenpan RB) issued regulation No. B / 2335 / M.PANRB / 07/2015 dated July 22, 2015, which appealed to all civil servants neutrality in the elections. Sanctions provided is loss of position if later proven utilizing the facilities of thesState and intentionally causes damages to people.

Abstract Individual candidacy in local elections is expected to produce more aspirational, qualified, and strongly committed regional leaders. Individual candidates in the Regional Head Election are also an alternative to accommodate the human rights of every Indonesian Citizen who does not run through a political party. The existence of individual candidates will surely break the partitocracy (political party dominated democracy) and the oligarchy of political parties so that the aspirations of the bottom get a place in the political process. With the allowance of individual candidates, it will enable the birth of candidates from the public who are considered more qualified public than just a figure who carried a handful of political party elites. On the other hand, the increased support of the people towards the existence of individual candidates should be seen as an effort to increase people's political participation in the regional head elections and the implementation of more accommodative and democratic regional elections. Up to now it should be recognized that the nomination of regional head is dominated by political parties. The absence of a transparent and democratic recruitment system led to this process being influenced more by political party elites and political brokers. The position of the political party becomes very central because all candidates must pass there and of course a candidate will not get the ticket of the political party for free. With the regulation allowing individual candidates will directly push the process of internal democratization of political parties to be more selective and democratic in determining the candidates. The type of research conducted is descriptive qualitative research, namely research conducted describes the situation of elections of regional heads. The analysis conducted in this research is qualitative analysis by drawing deductive conclusions that is drawing conclusions from things that are general to things that are special. Keywords: pemilukada, regional autonomy Abstrak Pencalonan perseorangan dalam pemilihan kepala daerah diharapkan menghasilkan pemimpin daerah yang lebih aspiratif, berkualitas, dan berkomitmen kuat menyejahterakan rakyat. Calon perseorangan dalam Pilkada juga sebagai alternatif untuk mengakomodasi Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM) politik setiap Warga Negara Indonesia (WNI) yang tidak mencalonkan diri melalui partai politik. Adanya calon perseorangan tentunya akan mendobrak partitokrasi (demokrasi yang didominasi partai politik) dan oligarki partai politik agar aspirasi dari bawah mendapatkan tempat dalam proses politik. Dengan diperkenankannya calon perseorangan, maka akan memungkinkan lahirnya calon dari masyarakat yang dianggap publik lebih berkualitas daripada sekedar figur yang diusung segelintir elit partai politik. Di sisi lain, meningkatnya dukungan rakyat terhadap keberadaan calon perseorangan harus dilihat sebagai upaya meningkatkan partisipasi politik rakyat dalam pemilihan kepala daerah dan terselenggaranya pemilihan kepala daerah yang lebih akomodatif dan demokratis. Hingga kini harus diakui pencalonan kepala daerah lebih banyak didominasi partai politik. Tidak adanya sistem rekuitmen yang transparan dan demokratis menyebabkan proses ini lebih banyak dipengaruhi oleh elit partai politik dan para broker politik. Posisi partai politik menjadi sangat sentral karena semua calon harus lewat sana dan tentunya seorang calon tak akan memperoleh tiket partai politik tersebut dengan gratis. Dengan adanya regulasi yang memperkenankan calon perseorangan secara langsung akan mendorong proses demokratisasi internal partai politik untuk lebih selektif dan demokratis dalam menentukan calon-calonnya. Jenis Penelitian yang dilakukan adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif, yaitu penelitian yang dilakukan menggambarkan situasi pemilihan kepala daerah. Analisis yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini adalah analisis kualitatif dengan menarik kesimpulan secara deduktif yaitu menarik kesimpulan dari hal-hal yang bersifat umum kepada hal-hal yang bersifat khusus. Kata Kunci : pemilukada, otonomi daerah

Abstract The paper concentration is on the number of votes each political party acquired in the 2015 local elections. A constant debate and dispute is performed regarding vote counting manipulating, such as vote steeling, uncounted votes, corruption of vote counters, vote buying etc. Thus, statistical calculation on 2015 national results are subject of first digit Benford’s Law application. The result shows that all first digit number groups of parties′ normal distribution rate of votes do not correlate to the 1BL distribution rate. It is clear that there have been a probable vote fraud/manipulation in this election. Out of three main political parties of Albania, being also parliamentary ones, only one the Socialist Party shows lost vote’s number in the group it belongs. Instead the Socialist Movement for Integration and Democratic Party show an increasing one.
