Relevance thought Raja Ali Haji to the governance system in Indonesia today, among others, can be seen from the criteria of an ideal leader: first, fulfill the requirements according to Islamic law, namely; Muslim, male, puberty, intelligent, fair/ not wicked (consistent in implementing the rules of Islam), able to carry out the mandate and leadership. Second, the power to make the country independent/ self-reliant. Third, make the security of Muslims in this country is the security of Islam. Fourth, implement Islam simultaneously and comprehensively. Fifth, preventing disintegration and unify the territories of Muslims that have crumbled, not only in Indonesia, but in the whole world, so that Muslims are strong and united in one force. Seeing the condition of the state government system in Indonesia at this time, although different from the form of government desired by Raja Ali Haji is sufficient in accordance with expectations, if we refer to the leaders elected to run the government, ie those who have been entrusted by the people as leaders. Elected leaders are expected to voice their concerns, so that the well-being and comfort can be felt. It is true there is no doubt that the concept of rule by Raja Ali Haji, there are some that do not conform with the concept of governance in Indonesia. Because, in Indonesia, although the majority of the population are Muslims, but also non-Islamic religions grow and develop properly in the spirit of tolerance is high. While the concept of rule by Raja Ali Haji ideal is based on Shari'ah. If this is implemented, the existence of discrimination against other religions.

Civil society is one of the three important sectors of society, along with government and business. Civil society is one of the important elements of the democratization process in Indonesia. In accordance with the problems formulated above, the purposes of this discussion are to find out the description of civil society in Indonesia, and to find out efforts to strengthen civil society as a logical consequence of the realization of Good Governance in Indonesia. The development of civil society involves all aspects and dimensions of life. Therefore, efforts and commitment are needed to strengthen the community. Cooperation is needed because no party, organization, institution or anything even the government can carry it out alone. The relationship between civil society and good governance is symmetrical between the two. This is because the two concepts were born from the concept of democracy that upholds the values of justice, freedom, individual and group rights. Furthermore, democracy requires the state in carrying out its activities to be open to the public. Strengthening civil society in the flow of democracy must be realized as an absolute necessity for the implementation of a 'strong' and 'clean' government. The weakness of civil society in Indonesia is marked by widespread rejections of state/government policies by the people and these rejections have not received a meaningful response from the state/government. In the process of determining policies, the government bureaucracy still feels that citizens are used as objects of policy. This kind of narrow view will make the government anti-suggestions from citizens in determining policies.

The Kingdom of Brunei Darussalam is a country that makes Islam as the official religion of the State and Islamic law as a state administration system. This paper describes what forms of institutionalization of Islamic law in various aspects of national and state life in Brunei Darussalam and its role as a unifying force, peacekeeper, and state harmony, and the prosperity of the people. On the foundation of the ideology of the Malay Islamic Beraja (MIB) the establishment of Islamic law in the administration of state, government, and community life has begun since Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah has been named as Sultan until now. Various laws and regulations based on Islamic law governing various aspects of life have been produced and applied. All of this boils down to the goal of establishing the state of Baldatun Tayyibatun Wa Rabbun Ghafur or the State of Zikir (Remembrance) that produces prosperity in the world and the hereafter. The use of Islamic law in Brunei has been relatively beneficial for both aspects of order and structuring aspects of state and government as well as peace and well-being of the people.

Fines are sanctions or punishments that are applied in the form of the obligation to pay a sum of money imposed on the denial of a number of agreements previously agreed upon. There is debate over the status of fines in Islamic law. Some argue that fines may not be used, and some argue that they may be used. In the context of fines for delays in payment of taxes, in fiqh law it can be analogous to ta'zir bi al-tamlīk (punishment for ownership). This can be justified if the tax obligations have met the requirements. Whereas according to Islamic teachings, fines can be categorized as acts in order to obey government orders as taught in the hadith, and in order to contribute to the realization of mutual benefit in the life of the state. As for the amount of the fine, the government cannot arbitrarily determine fines that are too large to burden the people. Penalties are applied as a message of reprimand and as a means to cover the lack of the state budget.

It is proposed that government, being the tangible expression of the legitimate authority within an organised society, has undegone a long transformational journey since its very emergence. The various evolutionary forms and features of the government have been the product of its meaningful and viable responses to the changing expectations of the people as well as to the challenges they faced in an ever-changing environment. The exclusive domain of the state over the period became a shared space with inclusion of other actors and stakeholders, and an era of governance was ushered in since the 1980s. The much celebrated success of the liberal democracy and its market-led open economy heralded as an era of good governance. However, the universal model of good governance fails to take into account the local constraints of a society. Thus, the idea of good governance has to face various types of challenges in the developing as well as underdeveloped societies.

Democracy allows the people to have equal rights in decision-making that can change their lives. Consequently, opposition and coalition exist in this political system. While the opposition aims to correct and evaluate various government decisions, the coalition is the power holder or supporter of the government. Because Indonesia is a country that uphold legal formal consisting of many political parties, a coalition government party must be formed. This is done by gathering other parties until the government can run effectively so that it has the basis of a combination and effective legitimacy. In the second period of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's cabinet, the emergence of political parties that were powerless and did not dare to become the government's opposition became evidence of the need for democratization. The emergence of elitism, centralization, and anti-public, as well as the freezing of political structures and the backwardness of the cultural attitudes of the Indonesian people caused the opposition to stand on the word of democratization. Therefore coalitions and opposition are two important parts in building a democratic governance system in Indonesia. This article underlines that democracy in the political elite tends to produce a pseudo and half-hearted democracy. Therefor, the portrait of democratization is needed as a reinforcement of all elements of civil society and thus is not seen as a "devout movement of the state", but an urgent movement to change the attitude of the state through changes in the political composition within it.

The changes about Village policy provide both opportunities and threats to the development of village autonomy. Opportunities for the development of village autonomy are at least normatively gaining a foothold from two important principles of recognition and subsidiarity. The first principle as a form of recognition of village existence in various forms has actually been introduced through Law Number 22 Year 1999 and 32 Year 2004 which corrects efforts to uniform the lowest government entity of the village under another name. The second principle is the juridical consequence of the 1945 Constitution article 18B paragraph (2) where the state not only recognizes, also respects special and special units as long as it is still there and well maintained. This principle allows the state to allocate resources to the village even though the village is no longer subordinate to the state (mini bureaucracy) as the practice of Law 5/1979 through local state government paradigm. With the resources referred to the village at least have the opportunity to develop the original autonomy (self governing community) and not solely under the control of local governance system (local self-government). The allocation of resources from the government, provincial and district / city and the opening of access in the effort of developing village autonomy is not impossible to increase the tension in the village through abuse of authority and the potential of horizontal conflict. Village autonomy can ultimately contain threats if a number of important requirements can not be fulfilled given the culture, structure and environment that affect the village is much more dominant than the supradesa itself is quite distant with the community.Keywords: village autonomy, opportunities, threats

Public trust in government is crucial for good governance, encompassing economic and social development of the region in a representative democratic setup. This study uses India Human Development Survey (2004–2005 and 2011–2012) data to examine the changing pattern of household confidence in state governments in India. Using a logit model analysis, we examine how the level of household confidence in the state government changes with households’ socioeconomic status, personal experiences, and benefits received from government programs and direct social benefit schemes. We find that households with a low socioeconomic status (such as Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes, and low-income and less educated households) are more likely to trust the state government. In addition, households that have had a positive experience or have received benefits from a government program and/or social scheme are more likely to exhibit high levels of trust in the state government. We also find that residents of less developed states are more likely to have high levels of trust in their state government than residents of highly developed states.

One reason why the Marriage Law (UUP) is not obeyed is related to the status of compliance. According to the majority of Muslims, the status of obeying the contents of the UUP is related to and is a matter of the State, not related to the legality of religion, not related to the validity of marriage. Instead Muhammad 'Abduh is a thinker who believes that obeying the UUP is part of an obedient obligation to the government (uli al-amr), the same status as being obliged to obey Allah and His messengers, as required in al-Nisa' (4): 59 and 83. Thus, obeying the UUP is part of implementing compliance with the government. So obeying UUP is an obligation for every Muslim. Likewise, the UUP as a decision of people's representatives is an expression of the agreement of all the people. The people are represented by people who are elected by the people (people's representatives), because to gather all the people, at present, is impossible. So the decision of the people's representatives is positioned as the decision of all the people. The decision of the people's representatives for now becomes ijmâ ‘, the third source of Islamic law after the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. The final basis stipulates the obligation to obey the Marriage Law, compared to fiqh, fatwa, interpretation, and jurisprudence, as a product of Islamic legal thinking, the UUP occupies the most authoritative and comprehensive position, because the UUP is the result of the minds of many scholars and expertise. This paper tries to explain the concept of ‘Abduh.

Presents the results of empirical study, which was attended by 246 people of different age (112 men and 134 women), which living in Donetsk, Mariupol and Kiev. We used the following methods: 2 author’s research questionnaires; Impact of Event Scale (M. Horowitz, N. Wilner). Empirically it is shown that in a situation of military conflict in Ukraine in comparison with the period before the military conflict: 1) displaced persons from the combat zone and the people currently living in Mariupol emphasize the negative impact of the situation of the military conflict in Ukraine on the well-being of their family members; 2) increased aggressiveness and proneness to conflict has been observed among the participants of the study currently living in Mariupol and among the displaced persons from the combat zone; 3) the situation of the military conflict in Ukraine has been stressful for the study participants and their families, this is especially pronounced persons from the combat zone and the people currently living in Mariupol; 4) a fairly strong and very strong degree of sleep disorders has been observed among the participants of the study currently living in Mariupol, among the displaced persons from the combat zone and among the participants residing now in Donetsk; 5) irritation and anger in connection with the event – the military conflict in Ukraine – in rather strong and very strong degree have been observed among the participants of the study currently living in Mariupol, among the displaced persons from the combat zone and among the participants residing now in Donetsk. Empirical evidence shows that the most powerful influence of the situation of the military conflict in Ukraine on relations with the immediate relatives has been observed among the displaced persons from the combat zone, in comparison with other groups of research participants. 39,84% of all study participants indicate disappointment in the state, because the state does not protect the rights of citizens. Regarding the organization of the relationship between the citizen and the state respondents think that such relationships should be based: 1) on the protection of the rights of citizens; 2) on trust, honesty; 3) on respect for the Constitution. 21,95% of all study respondents indicated a lack of confidence in the government. 10,98 % of all study respondents note that they have increased aggression to politics. 13,01 % of all study respondents indicate that there is more to discuss military and political issues. 11,38 % of all study respondents have avoided the subject of war and militarypolitical events. 17,07 % of all study respondents began to perceive military and political-legal events are more critical with less confidence.
